I went in with high hopes, I really did. Customer service is extremely impersonal and lax. They could care less about your goals or expectations. If you're looking to "get big" this is the place to go, but if you're looking to get guidance and support while you work on your goals, there are better and cheaper places in Malden.

While living in Everett, I used to visit this gym. It has a traditional or archaic looking set up. There is a free parking space available for the visitors. Besides metal plates and rods, a varieties of cardio equipment are available at this gym including step ladder, treadmill etc. However, gym related modern equipment are few compared to similarly priced other gyms.

Great training environment for serious strength athletes. Vastly different from commercial type gyms and even other independent gyms; everyone here trains with focus and intensity which creates a great environment for heavy lifting. Enough equipment to cater to strongman, olympic lifting and powerlifting. Lots of different bars, implements, chalk, and benches. Staff has gone above and beyond to help on multiple occasions. Plenty of parking.

Today was my very first day in this facility. I got the 7 day free trial and boy this was a really good experience. Hands down the best gym in the Boston area, it has all these cool powerlifting equipment that I am excited to start using. Once my 7 day trial is up I'm going to sign up immediately.

After spending time at many of the gyms in the area, I ended up going with Total Performance Sports. Their facility is unmatched - the equipment for compound movements is top-notch. With equipment like the Buffalo bar and safety squat bar in addition to the straight bar, training is more effective than other gyms. They dont clutter the area with resistance machines, instead opting for more benches, platforms, and power racks. Additionally, the training they offer is unlike anything else in the Greater Boston area. If you want to learn how to be a more effective barbell athlete, this gym is not AN option--it's the only option.

The best gym I've ever been in. This is NOT like other meathead bro gyms where you have people curling in the squat rack or flexxing in the mirrors.Its more like a club, where coaches and fellow patrons are part of a friendly community. Everyone (coaches, staff, and patrons) is courteous, respectful, helpful, and encouraging. Everyone re-racks weights and no one plays with their phones (except for training purposes!). Everyone in the gym is laser-focused on training without intimidating the novices.They offer some free classes on a regular basis, and a variety of coaching options in classes, clinics, and solo or group personal training. I have taken advantage of a few of their clinics and found them to be very informative and helpful in my training. I have worked with almost every coach in the gym at least once, and they are all great at what they do.Highest recommendation, I could never imagine going back to a chain franchise gym after joining TPS.

After being a member for a few months and attending a two of their monthly training days I have nothing but positive things to say about the gym, the other members, the staff, and the overall culture of the place. Coaches are extremely knowledgeable and ready to help you meet your strength training goals. Learned more from my few months in this gym than years at chain gyms.
