Overall this is a great gym-- very clean, good equipment, great staff, and delicious post-workout protein shakes! Jaxon is an outstanding trainer here. His expertise and personalized approach make every workout effective and enjoyable. You can tell he is passionate about what he does, and in helping his clients. Five stars!!

I just love this gym!!! I have only been a member for 6 months but everything is amazing. The gym is so clean! The staff is always walking around wiping off equipment and the floors. The locker room was very clean as well. I just LOVE the Zumba classes with Kim and Lori. They are the best. I am so not coordinated and they made me feel welcome and encourage me to just keep moving. The ladies in the class are so friendly. It feels like a family! I used Jen as a personal trainer and loved her! If you want a nice friendly gym where everyone is there to encourage you along your fitness journey. This is the gym.

I would like to address James Burke’s remark about the inability to follow Get Fitness’s dress code. We checked with your front desk attendant for a dress code and she was not aware of one. We asked if our outfits were OK for the Gym and she stated they were in line with what other members wear at the gym. We contacted your assistant manager, who stated she had no problem with our Zumba outfits in the gym. You gave no reason for the membership to be revoked except “Inability to follow proper dress code”.Get Fitness’s Dress code in their Terms and Conditions members sign up to states ”Members are required to wear gym shorts with Tshirt or sweat suits….. No other clothing will be permitted without specific approval of the club manager“. Well it appears that this is not enforced uniformly at the Gym. Most females working out in Get Fitness are in Leggings, Zumba Attire, Sports Bras and even Booty shorts, all against the dress code!. Even the Get Fitness WebSite shows Instructors and members not adhering to the dress code! I would advise that if Get Fitness is not enforcing their dress code uniformly and only picking on certain people for not adhering to the dress code you could be discriminating against certain people especially if it is age related??Just another reason to stay away from Private Gyms, they think they are exempt from discrimination laws they make their own rules!!!I have been a member of Get Fit in Largo for over 7 years. During this time, I have observed the gym under 3 different management teams, and I’ve seen a drastic decline in the quality of the gym, and as a result, I have decided to cancel my membership.While it is commendable to see a family-run business, there have been noticeable issues, particularly with equipment upkeep and unprofessional management staff. The equipment seems outdated, unorganized and the cushions are often worn out with foam underneath showing and requires patching up.Management is void of professionalism and has vindictive tendencies. Specifically, James Burke, the owner’s son, has been extremely challenging to work with. Upon notifying Mr. Burke of my cancellation of membership, he was initially reasonable and offered to forgo the 30-day contractual requirement for the cancellation notice. However, after my wife (who has a shared sentiment of the gym) left an honest negative review on Google, he went back on his word. He billwd my credit card for the membership and directly admitted to that the review was the underlying reason on a phone call.As a potential gym-goer in the Largo area, I’d recommend looking elsewhere. Esporta Fitness offers a larger, cleaner, and more welcoming environment. They also have additional amenities such as a pool, sauna, and a more extensive variety of classes with certified instructors. I have also had a great experience with Crunch.It is important to note that this is the only gym I have had a bad experience in the area while sporting 3-4 different gym memberships over the past few years, so I don’t think you can go wrong if you steer clear of Get Fit. Another red flag is that they are not registered with the Better Business Bureau (BBB).Overall, I hope Get Fitness can address these issues for the betterment of its members and the community.

I made a fb post about the cleanliness of this gym on the equipment and after being a member at the gym for 10 years, my membership was revoked. I actually got a rash from the machines at this gym which is what I posted about. I was also told that my membership was revoked because people complained about what I wear and how I danced and that I danced in between songs at a dance class which doesn’t make sense because there are no dress code rules or rules against that so I assume it is because of my fb post about the rash and non cleanliness at this gym. I would highly recommend not going to this gym because obviously if they are kicking people out for the cleanliness of this gym, there are no plans to fix it any time soon if ever!!Update on James Burke’s comments: I did get a disgusting red bump itchy rash from their machines that I posted about on fb months earlier so he is not telling the truth. I had to use Ketoconazole cream to get rid of the rash which is prescription only! I always tell the truth!!

Can private Gyms break age discrimination laws and get away with it?? I would like to address Get Fitness's dress code that was used to single out an individual not adhering to the dress code while others members are not following the dress code, which may be considered age discrimination! We have been members of Get Fitness for 10 Years and never had any issues with the dress code. Evidently, the new owners think the dress code only applies to certain members and not others...? We checked with the frontdesk attendant for a dress code and she was not aware of one. We asked if our outfits were OK for the Gym and she stated they were in line with what other members wear at the gym. We contacted the gym's assistant manager, who stated she had no problem with our Zumba outfits in the gym. However, the Gym's manager (James Burke), overruled their consensus, and gave no reason for the membership to be revoked except "Inability to follow proper dress code".Get Fitness's Dress code in their Terms and Conditions members sign up to states "Members are required to wear gym shorts with Tshirt or sweat suits..... No other clothing will be permitted without specific approval of the club manager". Well it appears that this is not enforced uniformly at the Gym.

Edit following owners response: First and foremost, I am not a spammer and what I’ve stated in my review does not appear to be a unique experience looking at your other reviews; so not sure why you’d make that claim. Regarding your records, I was a guest of one of your members. I went to your gym on 3-4 different occasions. If you don’t have record of me, that doesn’t seem to be my issue. Lastly, unsportsmanlike conduct would be discouraging your visitors to share their experience with your establishment. A more appropriate response would be to embrace the feedback, make changes, and invite the patron back for a free workout to see if you can win their affection again.Deducting a star for the unprofessional response.——I have been a guest at this gym a few times, and it leaves a lot to be desired.You can see from my review history I review often and seldom leave negative reviews, so I take the review process seriously.My primary concern is with the cleanliness of the gym. Patrons appear to not clean off machines nearly as frequently as I find in other establishments. The person whom I was Invited to be a guest with actually ended up getting a rash from these machines. I partake in grappling sports, so I know how crucial cleanliness is when it comes to workout mats/equipment to avoid rashes.Secondly, the equipment needs to be more organized and better maintained. I find it much more efficient when gyms feature the same brand of equipment throughout the gym as they seem to touch on every muscle group evenly, whereas, in this case, it looks like they cobbled together random equipment from a variety of manufacturers which makes for a much less efficient workout and challenging to do any supersets.Even if the equipment was purchased correctly and organized, the equipment could be maintained much better. There are obvious signs of unprofessional maintenance, such as exposed duct tape and significant wear & tear that you wouldn't find in other clubs.Overall, I haven't had an overtly negative experience with the gym; however, compared to the neighboring options, this would be a last resort for me.

Worst gym ever. I got a rash from their gear and mats there. And my mom went to the Zumba classes and the women said mean things about the way she dressed and danced and made her cry. I would not recommend.

We were able to sign up for a week pass while we visited the area. It's nice to stay in some kind of routine while away from home. Plenty of machines and equipment.

The best gym I have been to. My husband and I joined 3 months ago. We also signed up for personal trainers as we had not been to a gym in a long time. My husband works with Jaxon and I work with Jennifer. They are amazing. They are kind and understanding yet persistent in our workout. Personally I am quite out of shape. Jennifer focused on flexibility and stretching and slowly building strength. Grant, the gym manager is quite knowledgeable and explained the different areas of the gym as well as gave us an initial evaluation to see what areas we needed to concentrate. The gym is kept very clean from the equipment to bathrooms. Music is great. We have attended some of the specific group classes (yoga, e-sentrics, etc). More importantly, there are trainers constantly watching and will answer questions as well as help in correcting your form. Come and check it out. PS- the resident pup is a plus too.
