Powerhouse Gym Elite

Update: I appreciate the response here. And glad to see the care to look into the matter. The gym is a great place with good equipment and facilities so nothing much to complain about. The towel service is nice to have as well.Really disappointed in my experience leaving this gym today. I lost track of time and accidentally stayed in the gym at 7. It wasn’t even a minute or 2 over and one of the employees came up to me with an attitude and very rude to kick me out instead of nicely making me aware it was after 7. They then proceeded to do the same thing to my wife who was doing cardio with the same rudeness. I’ve brought 3 other members to this gym and get that kind of treatment when I make a mistake? It would be nice to feel valued as a customer instead of seen as a nuisance. Will edit my review once this is addressed.

I have belonged to Powerhouse Gym Elite in RWC since 2019, and have had a fantastic experience. I use the personal training services, know a lot of the regulars, and feel at home when I am there. It's a great small gym with all the equipment you need and a good vibe. Easy and cheap to park in the underground garage and central to everything.

The staff is awesome and the place is very clean! The only thing missing are cleaning/wiping stations throughout the facility. The wipes are usually located near the front desk, so you have to walk to get a wipe, then go clean equipment. Other than that, bathrooms/locker rooms are super clean; I use the showers frequently! The equipment is new and there's plenty of attachments, exercise bands, massage rollers, plates, etc.

Clean, good equipment, great staff and the owner is a friend of mine. Can't go wrong with this gym. Great location too, parking right next door and lots of places to eat when your done working out within walking distance.

Overall experience is positive.Gym has a nice setup & Zen music in the bathrooms/locker room.Felipe was my coach he did an awesome job. (show results).Monthly dues a little bit on the high side (comes with a clean towel 😊).Also wish free parking was 2 hours instead of 90 minutes. (Might want check if the gym can validate parking like the movie theatres).Definitely would recommend this gym to others!

We love the Powerhouse Elite family! For us it's truly mind, body and spirit💫The staff, the trainers, all the equipment and classes are all the best.What better way to spend your retirement!Dave & Donna BomgardnerPowerhouse for life!

Great gym in a convenient location in downtown RWC! Very clean facility and friendly and welcoming staff, including owner Rob. As a woman working out by herself, it is very important to workout in a safe and harrasment-free environment. Gym users are very respectful and mind their own workout. I highly recommend this gym.

Great gym in Redwood city! Started working out there and it’s just great! New and very nice top quality equipment and a very clean training facility. Staff very knowledgeable and so helpful. Many athletes as well as beginners all working out together, a great culture for all. Owner and staff are great, so helpful and willing to meet anyone at their fitness goals. If you’re looking to get in shape and feel better physically give Redwood city Powerhouse a try, you won’t be disappointed.

There is good and bad that comes with going to the gym here. Many of the people you will meet are congenial and encouraging. However, you will find that many things break down and take a long time before being repaired or replenished. This could be anything from a broken machine to a water fountain that barely jets water past the spigot or even empty paper toilet in the bathroom stalls and lockers that refuse to close or open to any code. Beyond the upkeep, there seems to be a policy of little to no AC which many of the gym goers complain about. Unfortunately, this falls on deaf ears, so if you work out on a hot day make sure to find an alternative way to cool down. All in all, this gym is quite small but has a friendly community. Outside of peak hours you’ll be able to find machines to use but don’t expect anything broken to be fixed anytime soon.Edit: I’ve modified my score since the gym obstinately refuses to acknowledge any error. I should note that the water fountain has broken down just 3 weeks after its scheduled “repair” and in the meantime I’ve seen 2 lockers be ripped off the hinges by other gymgoers. I’m convinced none of our money is going towards gym upkeep.

In November of 2021, I had surgery to remove a cancerous tumor from inside my spinal cord, up in my cervical spine, and fuse C3-C7. From the surgery, I lost all of my strength, my balance, too much weight, and the feeling in my entire body.In November of 2022, I was unable to make my own bed. I lacked the strength even to “push” the sheets and blankets between the mattresses!So, I talked to Rob Suelflohn, the owner of Powerhouse Gym and a really nice guy, and he recommended Jeremy Bates for personal training.Jeremy is fantastic! He recognized that I needed to strengthen my body to perform the most basic movements before I could do anything else. He suggested exercises that, not only improved my strength, but eliminated any strain on my newly-built neck.As of April, 2023, not only am I able to make my own bed, I can flip the mattress AND I can deadlift 100lbs!Jeremy has helped me gain strength, muscle mass, and balance. Every week I am getting stronger and feeling more capable. My energy is better and I am feeling better about myself.Thank you, Jeremy, Rob, and everyone at Powerhouse! You are all encouraging, inspiring, and, most of all, helpful. Thank you!
