Overall, I really like this gym — it has great equipment, lots of different machines and classes, and the massage chairs are amazing.
However, there are a few things you should be aware of before signing up.
When you come to buy a membership, they will push very aggressively to sell you personal training sessions. They will tell you that the discount is only available on the first day and that you will “never get this price again.”
Spoiler: you absolutely will — the discount is always there.
They will also give you an InBody scan and then tell you that something is seriously wrong with your body — not enough muscle, too much fat, too little water, asymmetrical arms, asymmetrical legs, etc.
The goal is simple: to make you feel insecure so you buy training sessions.
If you get an InBody scan, I strongly recommend checking the numbers yourself — even ChatGPT or the official InBody website will give you a more accurate interpretation than what they try to convince you of.
Remember that the staff selling training usually earn a commission, so they are financially motivated to exaggerate your “problems.”
Be careful when signing up. The gym itself is great — just don’t fall for the sales tactics

I really enjoy the daily classes at Fitness World — they are amazing and I’ve been very satisfied. However, I recently had a very unpleasant experience with one of the personal trainers. During my PT sessions, the trainer didn’t stay focused on coaching me. Instead of paying attention to my form, he kept looking around and seemed distracted, lacking sincerity and attention to detail.
During my final session, rather than helping me train, he spent most of the time trying to convince and pressure me to renew my PT package. If I had been satisfied with his training, I would have naturally continued, but being pushed like that made me extremely uncomfortable. The lack of focus even led to lower back pain afterward.
In conclusion, I hope Fitness World can address this issue so that members don’t feel pressured or uncomfortable about extending PT sessions, especially when the trainer has not been professional. Because of this experience, I’ve decided to receive PT elsewhere where I can continue training without psychological pressure.

I'm a few months into my membership here and really enjoying it. The gym's big enough to feel like you're not too crowded in with other people (most of the time), but small enough that you start to recognize staff members and other regulars, so it has a nice friendly vibe. It has a decent mix of equipment - I'm a beginner and the machine weights have been great for me, but they have more advanced equipment too. And I love the hydromassage!
I've also had a truly great experience training with Tiago. The top-tier personal training level isn't cheap, but it's been so worth it for me as I'm in my late 40s and have some lifelong problems due to a childhood arm/shoulder injury and other issues. Tiago's been really helpful at modifying my workouts to increase my strength and improve my movement without triggering my various issues (e.g., adjusting my body position or grip on some of the machines - amazing how much difference a small shift like that can make!), and giving me stretches and other recovery exercises to do at home.
