O2 Fitness Raleigh - Brier Creek

From what I can tell this Jim is excellent. Sure it’s pretty crowded in the morning when I usually go but I didn’t have any issues waiting for the machine I want to use. Looking at the other reviews, there are a lot of complaints about the sauna. I don’t typically use the sauna, so I can’t comment on it.

2 years ago 2021 Was Very happy with this gym, equipment lay out, cleanliness, staff, members, environment +++. Joining as our main gym, even though we have access to a clubhouse gym in our community! 5 Stars O2!💪 UPDATE: April 2023 in much needed repairs to the pads- that are torn/ripped without cushioning down to the metal. Manager has been advised and reported yet still remains un-repaired. Sad. If maintenance not kept up switching to Golds Gym or Planet Fit gym. UPDATE: We quit this gym. Equipment not maintained --Ripped padding, broken machines for 2-3 months not acceptable. Lack of maintenance and planning for repairs. Sad bcs it is a prime location. Yet Planet Fitness New and Nice and right down the block.

Great gym, so much to offer, nice equipment, spacious, and friendly staff. The showers could use cleaning more frequently and the membership is much higher than any of the other gyms around but all in all it’s a great gym to be a part of if you are fully committed to being in the gym consistently

I came in to learn more about this gym location and Malena was great! Super enthusiastic and really knowledgeable about the gym and what is offered. The heathy food truck option setup outside wasn’t a bad plus either :)

I’d give it 2.5 stars. When I first joined, it had a solid 4.Positives: bigger gym with a lot of quality equipment and friendly, helpful staff. I appreciate how they are not like a planet fitness in the sense that you can do Olympic lifts, drop weight safely from overhead, move equipment around, etc.Negatives: despite the size and what would be perceived as space on the turf, there are way too many people no matter what time you go. It could be 5am, 10am, lunchtime, after 5. Doesn’t matter, it’s always too crowded to get a quality workout in.I’ve tried adapting and doing shorter workouts, but even then I’m trapped there for hours waiting for equipment, or space. I’m not exaggerating in the slightest. There are so many people at times, that I can’t even walk through them. Other times, I have set up an obvious area to work, and have obviously claimed things for the workout that I’ll be doing like: a box, barbell, and rower. As I’m attempting to do my circuit, people will sit on the box, setup to do stretches or something next to the box where I’m obviously jumping over to, attempt to use the rower I’m using, etc. even after I’ve been doing the same 3 movements for 15min.It didn’t start out this way. It was still crowded, but reasonable. Now, I simply can’t handle it and have decided to search for another place and am willing to pay more again to do so. My final straw the other day was when I was dealing with the described issues yet again but this time, I spent forever scavenging the equipment I needed before I was finally able to set up. I was ready to start my MetCon, when I noticed the rower’s batteries were dead… I moved it back and tried to grab another, but the batteries were dead in that one as well… the only other 2 were taken. Annoying beyond belief. All I want is to workout…

love this gym but they are in serious competition with Golds Gym. I really wish O2 would update with new equipments, like Gold’s. For the same price, Gold’s is kind of making me want to switch. It also sucks that O2 isn’t 24hr unlike Gold’s.

Clean facility, lots of equipment, outstanding team from the reception to knowledgeable and motivator trainers (Alan and Trevor) to management.Like the fun trivia too. Keep it up!

This gym is great. Was going to planet fitness but never consistently went but the newer machines and atmosphere here keeps me coming back!

The staff has been amazing, and helpful, always ready to assist with anything I need. I had a few complimentary sessions and that experience has kept me at this gym ever since, it’s been almost a whole year now!

This is the best gym I have ever been too. It has all the machines someone would want and the people who work here are so kind.
