Top Weightlifting areas in Reno, United States

This place has everything you need, including a sauna. Everyone is very respectful, and my kids love the daycare center. I would strongly recommend to anyone looking for a good gym 🏋🏽‍♂️

Sports West gym can not be beat! Literally, this gym offers so much to its members, to the individual working out here. I am very grateful for this place. Thank you, Tracy, and all the staff for your hard work. I look forward to working out regularly. 💪

Love my neighborhood gym!!! The first gym membership I’ve ever had. Just tried it out. And now I’m there multiple times a week. Lots of room and great equipment and kind people to explain how to use it all.

This place is fabulous! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The facility is super clean. It’s a really great place with so much to offer from the smoothies, personal trainers, special events, tons of specialty classes and it even has a spa & salon connected to it. There is definitely something for everyone!

Our Hoist machines are amazing! As a Pilates instructor, I love the targeted intensity but low joint impact. I made significant changes in body fat, muscle mass, & metabolic rate in only 4 weeks! I look forward to my workouts now.

I'm giving one star because of the policy of this gym and others that write into contracts that they can charge you dues if you don't cancel far enough in advance. It's absolutely ridiculous. A gym is not like a hotel that would lose something without proper notice, yet they feel entitled to another month's dues? The gym is actually pretty well-maintained. Yeah, you've got your handful of aggro meatheads, that one staff member that's fake nice her entire shift but is clearly a massive b, the pool was definitely overly chlorinated at times, but overall, I don't think I would have cancelled my membership any time soon if I had stayed in the area. It just seems to me that gyms capitalize on this stipulation of membership cancellation simply because they feel that they can, not for any recoupment of loss, and I think that's just wrong.

Expensive, rude, free weights suck. If you’re going to join a club in Reno, pass on Sports West. I tried calling to inquire about membership several times, no one was available, no calls returned. When I finally stopped by in person, the woman at the desk was very short and unwelcoming, and wanted a ton of personal information before I decided to join/met with membership staff— most likely so I could be incessantly emailed and texted if I didn’t sign up… the membership person didn’t even bother getting out of her seat, or to offer me to sit down when I went into the office— didn’t ask me anything about my fitness goals or what I was looking for in a club, didn’t offer me a tour, and seemed relatively annoyed when I had questions about classes🤷🏼‍♀️
If you want to take classes, the price of the membership more than doubled— for 2 classes a week! Or you can buy a $180 class card— but aren’t allowed to actually sign up for classes, so you may or may not be able to get into them even though you prepaid… classes notwithstanding, the free weights, which are also important to me, look very meager and delapidated, small selection/look like they are from the 80s, from what I could see, not being given a tour…
Tried to contact management about this experience, and to give the club an opportunity to show itself in a better light, but the staff was unaware of when the manager would be in, or available, and refused to provide me with any contact information— which seems very weird… apparently they don’t want to hear from anyone, or care and are satisfied to have this be the impression of their club— so I’m leaving this review to share my experience and save others the wasted time and frustration I’ve experienced. If you want decent free weights, or to be treated with a modicum of hospitality or respect, especially for what they charge, try another gym— and for the money, you can take Pilates at a real studio, it’s just less convenient than if they are offered by a gym that actually wants you to be a member 🤷🏼‍♀️

Nice gym. Just wish there was an area/multipurpose room that can be accesible with my monthly membership. Places like fitness for ten and fitness connection are a fraction of the cost, where an area is always available to get a workout in. Be it plyometrics, sprints, ab workout. If there’s a class starting, They will kick you out of the room even if you’re taking up 3x3 feet - Which I understand. However, not having a solution to this problem is what I don’t understand.

Update: I am a member at this gym. The fact that this email address isn’t on file does not negate that. Initially, I left a generous 3-star review, hoping for improvement. However, after reading the owner's response, I'm reducing it to 1 star. Please consider how other businesses handle dissatisfied reviews—they offer solutions, not rebuttals. For example, posting the times when the room is available for members not interested in group classes would be a simple fix. Instead of offering such a solution, your response mirrors the rude tone mentioned in many reviews.

Please do better.
