Recently trained here while in Tampa for work. Had trouble on two occasions with their electronic door and pass purchasing system which is no fault of theirs. I was contacted and taken care of each time within minutes by staff members making for a smooth experience with an unstaffed gym. I did meet one staff member, Halle, while training who cleaned the place top to bottom and showed just how cared for this place is which was awesome! As far as equipment they need a couple nice barbells to replace the bent ones and a deadlift platform as I saw numerous people deadlifting on the floor, but overall they have everything you need to succeed and highly recommend using this gym while in Tampa! Thanks!

If you’re looking for a 24/7 gym this is the one. The environment and atmosphere is great! Not packed like your commercial gym. A good selection of equipments to achieve a good workout.

Joined recently. This is not only the best gym in the area, but also the best gym I’ve ever joined. Been training for 10+ years and have lived in NY and CA. Never found a gym as well equipped and well cared as this one. Highly recommend.

Seems like a great old fashion gym but don’t show up till you at least call. No employees onsite, no water fountain, one bathroom only, biggest issue was I had issues with the app and the employee who answered the phone said he would answer if I called back and didn’t after several attempts. Right off the bat not a great experience, the squat rack I went on, either the bar or weights are messed up. The bar kept spinning on my shoulders.I’d rather this be a youfit

So far the experience has been great. I left a big box gym because I was tired of the crowds and also being harassed by the front desk as soon as I walked in trying to sell me expensive and unnecessary services, even after a polite “no thank you”. Doesn’t seem too crowded even at its peak. People clean up after themselves and it’s nice to just be able to get in and out.

Gym is going downhill, unfortunately. Most members used to be courteous, but now there are many who treat the gym as if it is in their own home. People tie up multiple pieces of equipment using one as a place for phone, towel, or water bottle, while working out on another. Many will sit on equipment and play with their phone for 20 minutes, and then get up after not even using the equipment at all, or will take 10 minute phone breaks during sets--effectively tying up a single piece for 30 minutes or more. Plates get re-racked about 50% of the time. Not sure how the owner can really address any of the above, since the gym is, after all, located in South Tampa where arrogance, and lack of consideration for others is the norm.The latest though, is several members now bring their large dogs and let them run loose throughout the gym. And, of course, if you don't immediately drop to your knees, and worship any and every nearby canine, you're automatically labeled a bad person. So, while trying to work out in what is a fairly tight space, you're getting licked and potentially tripped by loose dogs. This opens up all kinds of liability for the owner, and is something that they do have control over.

This low-key gym is where you want to be if you’re ready to achieve your fitness goals. I like it because it’s not packed like commercial gyms in the area, and to gain access a member must buzz in through an app designated for members only.

I was a member at a big box gym before joining Forge, and I have to say, I love it here! It’s worth paying a little more to have a quiet, chill space to workout (and it’s open 24/7, which is a plus for early morning runs). Whether you are lifting weights or doing cardio, they have all the equipment you need. Highly recommend!

The forge is by far the best gym in tampa! Very clean and great location, all the members are very friendly and is never crowded. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a private gym!

Solid little gym, not super busy and has everything you would need to workout with. If you are looking for a more private and less commercial gym experience I would definitely recommend.

If you want to go to a gym with no pressure and good vibes with a feel for genuine health and wellness please go to The Forge. I've been to multiple gyms and trained with people from all facets of life but this is the place that made me truly feel at home. Thanks to all involved. Love this place. Couldn't recommend a better establishment ❤️
