Very intense work out! I like their approach with virtual trainers and 24 hr operations. Simple but clean showers. Super friendly staff <3

I love the gym itself and the saunas. The 24 hour access is great.However I wish they had less staffed hours. Whenever the staff are there they kind of hover. I think they get bored and assume you want to have a conversation with them. It’s hard to get a workout in without it feeling like they’re monitoring you… because they are… they’re all very nice but I’m just trying to get a workout in and they’re clearly looking to chat.This is a great gym if the gym is a social spot for you. If you’re an introvert who wants a zen, meditative spot to get a workout in a sauna, go when the staff aren’t there.

This is by far my favorite gym, ever!!! The infrared sauna workouts are a,"game changer!"If you are unfamiliar with the many health benefits of infrared saunas, or of infrared therapy, then I recommend doing some research & then, after you decide it's something that you would like to try, then HOTWORX is here, to provide you with an opportunity to reap the many benefits of exercising with infrared.It's a, "no brainer!" Amazing skin, shinny hair, less time in the gym & results that you will see & feel, in no time!!It's pretty chill at the Downtown San Jose location. I have never experienced a problem with over crowding inside the gym, however, it is located in Downtown San Jose & parking can be a drag.It is open 24 hrs & the staff is very helpful, friendly & accommodating.I was also able to find a HOTWORX during my recent trip to Albuquerque, NM. I was very happy to be able to keep my exercise program going, while visiting family out of state. Besides, parking, my only other gripe, would be that there needs to be HOTWORX locations all over the place, especially here in California and the Bay Area. I want them to all over the place and accessible to more people.

Love to workout here. The infrared sauna makes me sweat A LOT!!In the beginning it was hard for me to adapt to the temperature inside (it's recommended to set the temperature to be around 120-125), but it was much easier after the 2nd - 3rd visit. I decided to join HOTWORX this new year and I hadn't been to the gym for 4 months. I thought I would feel really sore after doing 15 minutes cardio + 40 minutes iso workout. The results... I barely noticed any sore!! And even I had't done yoga/pilates for awhile, I never felt sore after doing yoga/pilates here. Thanks to the infrared that decrease the post-workout muscle soreness.I also feel that my mental health improved after working out here since I sweat like crazy. Overall, I recommend to try HOTWORX as regular workout or even just to supplement your other workout.

Got engaged and really utilizing this place for my fitness journey! I go about 3-4 times a week. I try to incorporate both cycle and an iso class to really burn those calories! The infrared heat really makes a different. Because the location is so close to my work I can’t make any excuses and have to go to hotworx even if it’s just for one session!

Great place to workout! Amazing people at the front desk, all are super professional and friendly and the manager Nora is super kind and always helpful. Great infrared workouts with a variety to choose from, you select the workout, reserve the time and show up and “earn the burn”, open 24 hrs, great location, no excuses try them out… you get a complementary workout!

HOTWORX is the best gym in San Jose! The workouts are done in an infrared sauna and are great for everyone because they cater to every workout level. The best part about the workouts is that they start every 45 minutes and they are open 24/7 to members, making it very convenient! There is also a great variety of different workouts, so you won't get bored easily. HOTWORX has truly become my home, thanks to the wonderful owners and staff! I can't wait to get back in there once they reopen! I highly recommend trying a workout here, you will easily fall in love with HOTWORX!

I’m kind of surprised, but I love HOTWORX — the combination of yoga/pilates/iso style workouts, small classes, infrared heat, and more benefit in less time. I normally don’t like feeling overly hot or being in a hot studio when I’m exercising, but the infrared heat truly is different. It makes the workout more intense in less time (under 45 minutes for yoga, etc., 15 minutes for cycle or rowing), but also feels cleansing and restorative. The facility is super clean and new. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the other clients are also really nice. There’s a camaraderie in trying out this new workout and sweating together. I highly recommend trying it.

My husband and I visited friends in San Jose and they suggested we try Hotworx. It was different than anything we have tried before. The infrared fitness sauna boxes we're amazing. It is not necessary to spend a lot of time warming up. The heat is dry so your muscles are warm but breathing was easy and didn't have the heaviness like you find in a steam based hot yoga. Muscle recovery was great. We had a choice of several different types of workouts. My husband chose cycling and I chose Yoga. Best workout ever. They also had free weights and clean showers. We will definitely come back when visiting San Jose.

This Gym is different than all the other gyms I have been to. Unlimited sessions 24/7, several different work outs in infrared saunas & a friendly atmosphere. I disliked how big the other gym's classes were , but here it's up to 3 people because of the sauna size. The Best thing about this gym is that you get more workout in less time and you never feel sore the next day! Everyone should at least try this place out.
