Great Gym. Great staff. Great Atmosphere and Very Clean!
Just perticular trainer got violent(literally) for not showing up for a workout. Heard he's fired!😄

My experience at this gym was frustrating. I recently had surgery and explained that I needed to exercise without shoes for specific ankle rehab. Instead of understanding, a staff member kept pushing me to follow the rules, even suggesting I wear one shoe
which is completely ridiculous and impractical. It felt like enforcing the rules was more important than my health or recovery.
On top of that, the gym is highly inconvenient. They close on holidays, open late on weekends, and even close early. For what they charge, this level of service and lack of flexibility is unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend this gym to anyone who values respect or support while working out.

Great gym! Lots of space and equipment. Also good prices and better quality compared to other gyms in the area.
Great gym. I was visiting Amsterdam for a couple of days and this was one of the few that didn't seem geared towards Crossfit, while also offering day passes. They have all the traditional weights and equipment of what I would consider to be a "normal" gym.
The staff are friendly and helpful, locker rooms clean, and post workout smoothie was delicious. All around a good experience.
As of October 2024, day passes were about €21 euros.
Cursory searches online seem to suggest that Crossfit types of training are the norm in Amsterdam, and as much as I would love to try it, I have too many injuries for that sort of thing and tend to stick to gyms where I can go my own pace. I'm glad this place exists and will definitely go back on return visits to the city.

SportCity Cornelis Schuyt is a decent gym. Enough equipment, not too busy, friendly staff and members. Only downside is the bad smell in the steam-room, in the men's wellness area.
Gym is okay but small with limited dumbbells and other weights. Points for the sauna but even that’s a weird experience - dudes get in there completely naked. Literally bare a**** all over the seats. I guess it’s a European thing but it’s still bizarre and deeply unhygienic. Also some of the female staff just walk into the men’s locker room when all the people are naked like it’s normal. Pretty sure none of the male staff are doing the same in the women’s locker room. The staff here are awful though and just generally give off weird vibes. The trainer centric environment is annoying and disruptive to everyone training without one. You’ll be using a space doing any given workout and they’ll just walk up take over and ask you to leave your spot. The whole staff needs to chill. You work at a gym. You’re not celebrities. Its not that serious.
Excellent facilities and friendly staff. The towel service is a great touch, and the wellness area is simply outstanding. The variety of amenities available, combined with the warm and welcoming atmosphere, make this a top choice for anyone looking to relax and unwind. I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a high-quality wellness experience.
Be ready to spend half of your workout trying to find and moving weights from equipment you didn’t use. No one puts them back on the rack, it would be nice if SportCity could put REAL signs to remind people of good gym behavior.
The best gym in Amsterdam where no staff keeps to opening hours.
Every week in the morning has some people crazy and furious in front of the place, because the staff no keep to opening hours. This is disrespectful to people!

I've been a member of Sportcity for a couple of years but can't believe the atrocity that they are allowing here.
I've seen two men being able to get in the (my) female locker rooms. Both of them are dressed even worse than Pamela Anderson used to do in movies.
Whilst I'm doing my workouts, there is this man wearing clothing where his balls almost drop out his pants, and the rest of his clothing is bare to none. Don't even get me started about the ridiculous workouts he's doing, which are making no sense at all. It's more preparation for an adulx movie. I hoped it was a one-of, but it keeps happening, and someone needs to do something about it. It makes you feel for an unsafe situation for women and the classes which are dominantly visited by women. This is written in one review, but I'm speaking up for more of us women who are afraid to speak up in the gym about it. Because it seems more a 'it's fine to have males in the females locker room' atmosphere, than not.
I've read another review about etiquette, and I find that gyms should be able to do the same about clothing for man as well woman. It's ridiculous how some are walking around here. I'm all in for diversity and inclusion, but there are boundaries in a professional atmosphere.

I’ve been a member of this gym for three years now and have generally enjoyed my experience. However, over the past few months, I’ve noticed a growing lack of gym etiquette among some members, which has been disappointing. I’d like to bring this to your attention, as it seems to be negatively affecting the gym environment.
Some examples:
Members taking phone calls on the gym floor
people not having a towel (and not using the cleaning spray)
Excessively loud grunting
Slamming weights
Additionally, a small group of people, mostly younger men, frequently fail to re-rack their weights. I've seen individuals squat over 120 kg and simply walk away, leaving the weights for someone else to deal with. This behaviour discourages many members from using equipment like the squat rack.
While I appreciate the staff’s initial efforts—such as posting A4 notices about re-racking weights—these notices were removed, and the problem persists.
I would hate for this to escalate to the point where it significantly affects my experience, to the extent that I will leave. I strongly urge the staff to take a more active role in maintaining gym etiquette and fostering a positive environment for all members.

My gym at Lijnbaansgracht is temporary closed due to renovations. There was a sign saying that I could go to any sportscity (see attached).
So I checked on Google maps and went to this one.
The attendant didn’t let me work out without paying 21 euro saying that they’re gym was not eligible without even checking the photo I took from the sign of my gym saying that I could go to ANY sportscity.
I want a refund of the 21euro I payed.
By the way it’s a pouchy gym and the bar and sauna area are even bigger that the gym. They don’t have some basic equipments.

This is about service at the cafe.
After a long workout and as I was leaving, I felt my blood sugar getting low, so I decided to sit at the cafe and order a shake. A moustachioed server took my order and came back seconds later putting his payment terminal on the table. I asked “so do I pay before getting served?”
This was enough to send the moustachioed server on a loud tirade about “I don’t know, you sit in the corner, I don’t see you, you could drink and leave without paying” and so on. So I told him to forget about the order but he still continued to raise his voice and continue his accusations even after I told him “this is not how you treat a member.”
I then walked to the cash register to talk to someone else, but he kept approaching me and accusing me/defending his actions. There was no supervisor around. And no one offered an apology.
I have had drinks before at the cafe and was not asked to pay beforehand, nor did I see them asking others to pay in advance of being served. However, even if that’s the policy now, this is not how to tell people about it and outright accuse them of theft!!!

Great gym, friendly staff, good equipment and great atmosphere. The saunas are the cherry on top. Great to relax after a work out
I have been training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu here for a couple of months and really enjoy it. The coach is knowledgeable and dedicated, ensuring everyone gets the attention they need to improve. Whether you're a beginner or seasoned practitioner, you'll find a supportive community here. Plus, the class schedule is convenient for busy office workers, making it easier to commit to regular training sessions. Overall, it's a solid choice for anyone looking to learn and grow in BJJ.
I really like this gym and the atmosphere that coaches and gymgoers alike contribute to create. The brazilian jiu jitsu (BJJ) classes are especially great!
Went to this gym for about a year and did the strength and conditioning classes. Very good trainers, but I especially want to give a high recommendation to personal trainer Wesley (which to whom the 5 stars are for). While I stopped my membership, I continued personal training with Wesley. He is not only a very knowledgeable trainer who is very passionate about (strength and power lift) training and pushes you to do your best, but he’s also a genuine person with a big heart and good sense of humor. If you don’t want to join the gym but still want to get fit, I highly recommend hiring Wesley as your trainer. :)
Amazing gym and atmosphere! Coaches are very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Top notch kickboxing and BJJ programmes, and they keep on getting better!
Great team and people. Also, they offer a variety of classes including an excellent BJJ/juijitsu class for all levels.
It’s the worst experience with a gym I’ve ever had.
I’ve literally trained at hundreds of gyms in the last 10 years and this was by a very long stretch, the worst.
For the love of good rethink where you workout before choosing this gym.

Good vibes at their new Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (BJJ) classes when Thomas is teaching!
I trained there only for 3 weeks, and I didn't try the showers, sauna or group classes. But at least the machines are new and good ones (from technogym brand), and the staff is friendly. I would train there if I live nearby
Jacqueline en haar trainsters weten een hele fijne sfeer neer te zetten tijdens de trainingen. Het is niet alleen kracht en conditie, maar ook empowerment en vrouwen in hun kracht zetten. Ik ga met veel enthousiasme en kom thuis heel voldaan weer terug.
I had a personal trainer intake, which was part of my 3 month contract, and the young man had little knowledge about the gym and the machines - he would point to the images on the machine and say "this is how you do it". He was rushing to get it done earlier and was simply not helpful at all. A waste of time. He also couldn't say anything about the TrainMore app and how it works.
TrainMore in Ijburg costs the same as other units more central in the city but is a lot less cool in terms of interior design, atmosphere and even size.

Avoid this gym, if you can.
Many things aren’t working properly (sauna, men’s changing room looks bad, A/C, billing system).
Even though the manager, Mitchel, is a very friendly guy, he is totally dependent on the HQ, and the HQ does not care much about this location. Waste of money 👎

A few good things but the gym is really small and for the high price it really does not differ a lot from basic fit. Courses are really bad, mostly just videos shown instead of live instruction for example for indoor cycling, instructors come often times too late
The kind of people using the gym have changed in a bad way since now it’s a Train More. I will stop my membership as it’s not at all what I want in a gym anymore. Lockers are broken, young noisy crowd using 5 machines being only 2 boys using their phone speakers to talk on the phone.
Nice gym, friendly and fair trainers. Great for beginners and intermediate skill. Keep in mind that gym part of the whole building is rather small, without really many machines so dont treat it like a fitness, but more as a supplementary to your fighting classes.
Also, if someone at eastbound is reading this, give Alex more lessons, we had him today and he was really professional and explained things well.

I live above the gym and whenever someone is using the weights I can hear it in my house. I am tired of calling the team and going there and asking them to solve the problem. Also there is no phone number anymore where I can call and tell the guys to manage the noise. I need to come downstairs in my pajamas. So if you prefer not to bother some kind people like myself and my neighbors, I recommend choosing other sports venues here in ijburg. Did you think about kickboxing or HIT? These could be fantastic alternatives for build strength without bothering people!
The gym is very nice but BE AWARE with the contracts. Even they advertise that if you move 10 klm away your contract can end , they continue to try charge you by sending you notices that y have to pay, even you send a notice 1 month before and even you have the proof of Cancellation.
Before joining convoy I was really out of shape, I lacked motivation to have a consistent routine.
I decided to try PT with Matt and it was a total change, now I'm doing 100kg benchpress for 8 repetitions and I feel motivated to train every week.

[Update October 2024]
This place is going downhill. It is not being maintained well. The changing rooms are always dirty (no soap; no paper towels; water everywhere). I used to like it but it’s not the same as it was.
—
Big gym. Broad range of equipment from cardio to weights machines to free weights. Impersonal but not unfriendly - for example the staff at the front desk never say hi or bye which I find really weird. But maybe nice if you like your own space.
Used this gym for around 18 months and the free weights sections with mirrors are always very full, throughout all times of day.

The gym has good trainers but the female owner is extremely unprofessional, mistreats customers, her gym her rules she says. Can’t imagine a reputable business can have a owner this rude, shame but there are plenty of other amazing boxing gyms in the neighborhood with better service.
Great experience for my first time here! Very friendly stuff and great attention from trainer Gustavo to attendants. Space for everyone in the class and great ventilation. The ladies changing room has two showers and a toilet. The password-lockers just make everything perfect! No need to worry about bringing your own ones.
I'm working out with Matt for nearly a year now, and it literally changed my life. I wasn't consistent with my workout or my goals. Matt helped me to focus even in the busiest of times, and the more I saw my progress the more I got motivated. Now I push myself in each workout and still feel great afterwards.
I definitely recommend working out with Matt and the Convoy 020 for people struggling with consistency, and want to change their habits. I really can't thank him enough.

I've been a member of this gym for more than a half year. This cozy establishment may be small in size, but it boasts a big heart and an even bigger commitment to helping its members achieve their fitness goals.
One of the standout features of this gym is its welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Matt, Celine and Valentine are always ready with a smile and a word of encouragement, making every workout session a pleasant experience.
The gym's location is a definite plus. It's conveniently situated in an area that's easily accessible, less than 5 min walk from tram station.
But what truly sets this gym apart is the remarkable progress I've made since joining. I can see the noticeable improvement in my strength, stamina, and overall well-being since becoming a member here.
In conclusion, I can't recommend this gym enough, and I look forward to many more rewarding workouts in the future.

Ik heb het altijd fijn gevonden om hier te komen boksen. In de groep hangt een fijne sfeer en iedereen accepteert elkaar. De trainsters nemen de training serieus en staan altijd open voor je. Kom zeker hier trainen als je overweegt om te gaan boksen :)
I am quite unhappy with this gym. I have been training here since winter '22 and I have noticed many issues that they seem to not be able to fix.
First of all, the lockers: I lost the count of how many months most of the lockers have been broken/not available. You can see yourself in the picture. This is just not acceptable given the price we pay.
What is also very annoying is that often the machine for protein drinks does not work/is not available/is broken. Moreover, I know that saunas in the female changing room is often shut down, especially if you go later in the day. But I don't care what time it is: if the gym is open, it should work! In bars and restaurants people work after closing hours to clean and shut down all the machines, so I don't see why this gym should be an exception.
Last remark on the employees: they often don't know how to help me/answer questions and they have proven to be quite useless when I had to sort out things like membership issues and so on. For example, one time I asked them to cancel my membership because I wanted to update it and they filled in the form in front of me with an iPad, but -- a month later -- surprise! My membership was not cancelled! How is that possible?
Now I try to do everything myself so that I don't have to interact with them anymore.

After cancelling the subscription, they will charge you for one more month (to be precise, for one more period, which is 4 weeks). Obviously they don't explain that when you sign in plain english, but they probably buried that somewhere in the contract.
Super fijne kickbokslessen! Lekkere training in een fijne en gezellige sfeer. Heel toegankelijk en geschikt voor iedere vrouw, Jacqueline is altijd lief, positief en motiverend :)
Boksen bij Jacqueline bevalt keer op keer weer enorm goed en is iedereen aan te raden! De sfeer is verwelkomend en na de trainingen voel ik me weer helemaal fit en voldaan :)
Sinds 3 maanden ben ik hier aan het sporten, superfijn! Je sport op je eigen niveau en wordt vanuit die basis goed uitgedaagd. Prima te combineren met werk en de schooltijden van de kinderen. Door het kickboksen bij fighting4power heb ik conditie en krachttraining in één. En dat in een informele en vertrouwelijke sfeer: iedere vrouw past er bij.
Ik moet nog wel een beetje oefenen met wat links en rechts is, maar ook daar hebben ze vertrouwen in dat dat wel goed komt…. zij wel ;-)

Jacqueline is een echte topper! Een hele fijne plek om te kickboksen waar iedereen zichzelf kan zijn en op z’n eigen niveau kan trainen.
Ik sport hier nu al meer dan een half jaar en ben heel tevreden! Veilige en fijne plek om te sporten en Jacqueline is fantastisch. Hier ben ik sporten weer leuk gaan vinden :)
Hele fijne sportschool om te kickboksen. Veilige omgeving en hele lieve instructrice! Aanrader voor elk meisje of vrouw!

Keep charging me after I stop my subscription.

I was in search for a workout class where I could work on my back muscles and I’m happy that I found RowStudio! I have went twice now and so far the trainers really take the time to make sure you have the right posture 🙌 I also really like how they added in a fun element to anonymously compete with yourself and fellow rowers in the class! 🫶 Will be coming back!
Olympic Gym Amsterdam, situated centrally in the city, provides a laid-back environment for fitness enthusiasts who prefer to concentrate on their personal routines. As a local resident and frequent user of the gym, I've found it to be generally conducive for maintaining a regular fitness regimen.
The gym’s focus appears to be centered around individuals who take their health and lifestyle seriously, providing a non-intimidating space for all body types and mindsets to carry out their workouts without interference.
One unique aspect of Olympic Gym is its extensive assortment of fitness equipment. Seemingly every fitness tool imaginable is available here, with each corner of the gym offering something different. This variety could potentially help to diversify one's workout routine and target different muscle groups more effectively.
However, potential users should note that this gym is more geared towards self-directed workouts rather than fostering a communal environment. If you prefer an individually-focused workout experience with a wide array of equipment, Olympic Gym might be a suitable choice.

Really fantastic gym, with great equipment and friendly staff. I particularly enjoy that there's a towel service, and that the locker rooms, showers, sauna and steam bath are all super clean and smell fresh. The gym is also typically not very busy, and quite big and airy by Amsterdam standards.
Great place to improve on any kind of physical exercise. In this gym you can find everything from group lessons (like CrossFit or strength club) to individual lessons based on personal programs. Met and Celine are great personal coaches, but also motivators and facilitators. And of course - community, this is where you can nice people that share the same goal with you. Overall, excellent place!
Super motivational Crossfit Box, Friendly helpful coaches and members, very clean and organised facilities, definitely recommend!!
I trained there for a week during an event that I attended in Amsterdam. The quality of the equipment was good. The staff was very kind.
They serve some meals, and it's possible to take protein after training or take a coffee before workout.

I really enjoy their barre class, the group lesson room has all the equipment needed. They have some showers available, they the 4 digit free lockers. To me the gym looks ok, it’s just not the newest- most beautiful one out there.
Amazing place! More than a CrossFit box
Super friendly staff and a great variety of equipment to get a full workout.
got asked to come via instagram for an appointment to get a body scan which had never mentioned any pricing as this was an invitation i didn’t expect any costs attached.
Long story short asked if i could still have my appointment answer was no because i didn’t have any money with me. Wasted my time and i would not recommend the customer service. As it was there fault to not mention the price and not mine i expected to still at least be helped with the appointment i had but even that they couldn’t help me with as the “manager” wasn’t there

It was my first time doing a class at RowStudio and I am excited to go back. The trainer was very friendly, helpful and explained everything very clearly. It was interactive, fun, and a different take on the static rowing machine in the gym. This is a full body workout which was really good!
I have lived in many places in the Netherlands and abroad so I have trained at +- 25 different gyms. Convoy is definitely number 1 for me. It is an intimate, cozy hangout, but at the same time Matt and Celine train us in such a professional way and we are always challenged to get the most out of ourselves. I have made so much progression and nothing is more fun than getting stronger and fitter every week! I will continue to enjoy working out here for years to come.
Clean, spacious and well equipped gym. I never thought that I would enjoy weightlifting till I started to workout here with Celine and Matt, they are the best! I highly recommend it.
Killer workout, motivated trainers and nice gamification with a scoreboard. 5 stars for me. Big big fan!
What sometimes makes me prefer going to other group lessons are the showers. You have to bring your own towel or pay for the towel if you want to shower there. The showers are open showers, overall wellness/premium experience does get lost once you enter the changing room. Feels very rowing club like. Rocycle and alike do a better job there.

Cool gym with friendly people and staff. The only down sides are that you need to be very fast for booking classes as they are booked out very fast (would be great to have a 12h cancellation policy). Also, the shower/toilet’s could be a bit cleaner.
Highly recommendable gym.
After a hiatus of 20yrs since my last workout, I started working with Matt to get my health and strength back on track.
I really enjoy the direct and no-nonsense approach, and the custom workout schedule he provides and adjusts where needed.
You can easily see the owners Matt & Celine are passionate about what they do and offer, and the overall vibe in the gym is great.
Definitely looking forward to train more!

By far the best gym on the block! Matt and Celine are a true power couple running this beautiful and professional gym, located at a great spot with modern equipment.
Starting to train here truly changed my physique and energy levels in no-time! Matt is a great trainer who really helped me get stronger and even with a back injury he managed to get me fit and stronger than ever.
All I have is love for the great atmosphere in this gym! Beautiful people and delicious coffee/proteinshakes.

Small gym but it was perfect .. you can find everything.
If you are travel for vacation in Amsterdam And you want to join crossfit classes I will recommend you to make registration online and book the class 1 week before class . Because the system in classes opened before 1 week and its hard to find spot in 1 day of 2 days before classes!
Btw the website is Dutch language not English !

My new favorite spot and sport. Come and join this wonderful vibe. All instructors are great and helpful, they will certainly make sure you have a good posture and will help you with technique. And you’ll sweat a lot 😉
The place gives the feeling of a family managed business. It is not busy even in peak times (to me the best thing in a gym), it has the best and most complete gear set I could see in Amsterdam, with all the high-end technogym line, classes are good, there is a nice view on the stadium and canal, changing rooms are spacious and the staff is super friendly. They also added a juice bar recently.
Training gear aside, the gym feels quite old, especially the interiors, the changing rooms and showers. They do not provide towels, no wellness/spa, not much “vibe” as it is always nearly empty and music is low. Also it would be nice to have a few extra benches and a biceps bench!
Really reccomended if what you care of is just working out with no frills!

Staff are very friendly, the gym have a wide variety of machines for all muscles and in terms of hygiene is clean. For myself, these are the 3 most important things.
Very cool rowing studio - very high tech. REALLY liked rowing on the RP3 (instead of Concept 2 or Water Rower). Fun team element, as well as the leaderboard (during, for part of the intervals, for those competitive individuals!!). Nice friendly vibe, great instructors! Amazing workout.
I dropped in for a class. The instruction was excellent, and we were coached the entire session. I’ve dropped into many boxes, and this is the best coaching outside of my normal CrossFit box at home.
I did the Launch class and was it was a perfect start. It was certainly challenging (I do not have much experience with rowing), but the technical portions were great at teaching me and combing those with the sprints and floor work pushed my body to the limit. I can definitely see how these classes will continue to challenge and push me into better shape.
Now though my body needs rest. And a smoothie.

I brought a 2 weeks pass during my stay in Amsterdam at this gym. This is a great gym, it has all the equipments you will need, clean and super nice helpful staff. During my 4 months travel in Europe in many different countries and brought many day/week passes at different gyms, this is the best gym experience I had. If you ever looking for a gym in Amsterdam area, go to this gym, it's a great gym for your workout.
It is a nice gym but:
- can be extremely busy and loud due to boxing classes.
- you have to wait around for racks and lifting equipment sometimes.
- once in the middle of my workout I was asked by a personal trainer to move from that area because his students needed to use the wall behind me! In fact I was using the wall and that was the exact reason why I was there. He was polite, but regardless I thought it was ridiculous as I'm as much entitled to use the environment as the other clients!

My first ever crossfit experience was here at CrossFit Flames XL and i have to say, even though it seemed overwhelming and scary before i tried it, i enjoyed it so much!!! The experience from the booking my first try out lesson, to introduction to the box, attention of coaches, help and motivation from other crossfitters was just amazing. They never made me feel awkward or unfit. All the exercises were adjusted to my capabilities and the only thing i noticed was how fast i learned and could progress, and how great it made me feel. I have never been the fittest pea in the pot, but i could work on making myself stronger, faster and happier. This place gives you so much energy - it's fantastic!
Unprofessional management and not value for money. Not too clean either.
Mats have been suddenly cut in half, the staff reason was: “now more people can use them” smh.

I am member for one year and half now and I really enjoy this box : the team is really friendly, always available and even it is a complicate period, everything is done to go on and push you. And the Box Heerlen App is really usefull, easy and enhance the experience
A warm community with knowledgeable and caring coaches. Transformed my body, as well as my mind. Love my family here.
Corona has been tough on the gym. And yes, they need all the support they can get. But support needs to be earned. It took them a long time to 'freeze' the subscriptions. Now that it has reopened: the corona rules are hardly adhered to, people come in without a reservation on the app, the showers are very busy and not ventilated. It does not feel safe to go there. So if the client does not get support in working out in a safe environment, why should clients still support you? It's a 2 way street. Get your act together.
I was there today to ask for the prices of tje subscriptions, they refused to tell me before i sign up to the trail session!! I find that strange
I have been training here for a few months already. Super motivating trainers! Very friendly and welcoming!
They exploit the fact that gym memberships have a legal cool down period of one week for the trial, whereas *everything else* in the EU is two weeks. Case-in-point, no one is debating whether it's legal or not. Legality doesn't imply it's good practice. Also, the building is run down. There are more flexible gyms in town. Onefit lets you cancel from month-to-month.
Absolutely wonderful CrossFit box, and I visited many all over the world. Very welcoming atmosphere, I felt right at home! The coaches are excellent, the group lessons are like personal trainings. Highly recommended!
Awesome place to be. You can feel the positivity as soon as you walk through the door. Coaches not only motivate you, but are honest when it comes to form, and guide you to do the movements well. This is important to prevent injuries. Lots of other social events aside from the training to really become part of the community.
Love the time i have spent there and plan on staying for a long time.

A CrossFit Box where athletes of all levels and all interests are welcome. Excellent coaches and programming. Reliable, friendly, steady, open minded, personal, motivating, great equipment, very clean box. Fair prices. Also suitable for Drop-Ins. Definitely 5 stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Best thing that could happen to me .Very welcoming box with positive people who care about you and try to reach your personal goals . I can really recommend. Thank you!
Amazing place, nice atmosphere, good food, friendly people and motivated trainers. Lessons are very good. Even if you are a guest in Amsterdam it's definitely a place to come by for your drop-in training.
The gym is smaller than what I have expected but the equipments seems complete nonetheless, at least for CrossFitters :). I emailed them to ask for a drop-in for Open Gym and they replied pretty quick (they also told us about of the „quiet time“, which is between 11AM-16PM). We‘re def gonna come back here during our next visit to Amsterdam 👍🏼
Great gym facility, especially now that it has been pimped out. A lot of diverse people here, not only white people 😊 And there are more female athletes. Which is nice for a change. The owner is an Games athlete, who started from scratch and has a lot experience. I will come again.
I've been going to this gym for a few months now and have really been enjoying it. The membership includes a personal fitness plan as well as access to all of the classes they give there. The people there are friendly and I've gotten many great tips to improve my lifting. Definitely a great deal if you go a few times a week as well as take some of the classes they provide.
Great box with professional trainers. I started training two years ago, with zero training experience. They can guide you if you have no experience, and they can easily handle the more experienced Crossfit fanatics. There’s a lovely open atmosphere amongst members of the box.
Would recommend it to everyone!

It's a high-end gym, so it's not cheap, but they delivery on expectations. It has very nice changing rooms, spacious enough gym area with modern machines, really good cardio equipment with all the latest bells and whistles. They have a lot of different classes, a nice little cafe attached, and you can use the track in the Olympic Stadium during the day.
Do not go if traveling through. No open gym. They have drop in but must be in class at class time. Not very helpful but speaks great English.
BE CAREFUL WTH TRIAL LESSONS, after you fill in their ''trial'' form, they collect money from your account, even when you clearly state you do not want to become a member after the trial lesson.
Good trainers, great community, very effective intensive workouts
The best gym I've ever trained at!
New gym in the former club "Trouw". The trainers have their schedules on point and are commited to help you achieve your goals.
