Fitness & Gyms in Scranton, PA

“Peffer Athletic Club in a word, Genesis! It's a place of new beginnings, transformation and success. And if you're blessed to train with Frank Peffer, the owner, best known as the Trainer of trainers, take notes and be ready to work...Smart! Also be ready to smile, laugh and possibly cry "tears of progress, of course!" :) It won't be long before you see your health and fitness goals in your rearview mirror! Believe me, I Know!”

“I always hesitate to write Google reviews (this might be my first one ever) because of how public they are, but I had such a fabulous experience at TRYBE that I kind of had to. I was visiting Scranton for a wedding recently and stumbled upon it when I was searching for a spin class but found so much more! As a person who's used to having a lot of fitness options available to me and loves to start my day with a fun and challenging workout, there wasn't a lot to choose from in Scranton (and my hotel's gym didn't even have a treadmill!), but TRYBE more than fit the bill and I'm so glad I discovered it first. I took a class every single day I was in town and also scheduled a training session with Michelle + another client, and every single experience was wonderful. All of the trainers and instructors provided fun, up-to-date, effective workouts and were friendly and encouraging, and Michelle REALLY knows her stuff. I left feeling good about myself and ready for the day every single time. I'm usually more of a cardio person, but the classes and sessions I took encouraged me to do more strength-training once I got back home.If you're traveling to Scranton and looking for a place to take group fitness classes or do personal training/small-group training, go here! And if you live in Scranton . . . also go here! The location (The Giving Tree) has a great vibe (and also great nutritious snack options that were hard to find elsewhere downtown!) and the prices are absolutely incredible! (Like a full-on personal training session is literally the same price as one drop-in class in Los Angeles.)”

“Quality facility with plenty of machines and free weights. It is well-maintained and clean and the staff is friendly and personable. Open 24 hours, which is a huge plus. Highly recommend.”

“I am from CA and we were members of Crunch over there. Those gyms were not even close to how nice this one is! There are plenty of treadmills even at peak gym time. The squat racks you might have to wait for if you come at 5pm, but that is to be expected. My favorite time to come is around 6am because there are some people there so it’s not an empty ghost town, but all the equipment you will need is open. I also take the classes on occasion and they have the fanciest spin bikes LOL. They have a digital screen on them to show all your stats like mileage, calories burned, gear, etc. The HIIT classes are my favorite though. There is a special HIIT zone to do the class and you cycle through different stations. There is every level of ability doing these classes so don’t be afraid! I also loved doing their kickboxing classes. They have a box of gloves you can use if you don’t have your own. Then, you get to punch and kick the bags even if you don’t know how to (like me) they will teach you. We also had some funky stuff with our old memberships and they were patient and understanding getting all the info they needed to switch us. 10/10 would recommend this gym!”

“So I never realized how amazing planet fitness is, not only do you get an amazing value for your buck you get so many selections from an endless amount of treadmills, every type of workout equipment you could think of, they have a special designed app that is almost like a personal trainer that will help you in your endeavors of getting yourself fit, but the most important part is the black diamond spa, it has hydro jets that are heated but you don't get wet!, tanning beds massage tables and massage chairs with giant screen televisions, so forget the gym my favorite part is sitting on that chair all day long and just watching the Price is Right! Go check it out it's only like $25 a month and you get all access”
