Great gym. Definitely an east Nashville spot. You will see girls with full makeup and coordinated fits, men wearing ironic brown boots lifting free weights and dudes who skipped leg day but have great hair. Enjoy!
Bought a day pass while vacationing in Nashville. If I was living in the area u would 100% join, great atmosphere, clean, and all the equipment anyone serious about lifting needs.
We worked out at Gym 5 while staying in Nashville.The manager, Eric, took the time to show us around and was exceptionally helpful. The gym is spacious with an excellent temperature and plenty of weight equipment. It has a no-nonsense, industrial vibe and has a nice view of downtown from the second floor cardio area.
This gym has everything you need for you to reach whatever fitness goal you have. The highlights for me are the multiple squat racks, The variety of machines (outside as well), Large garage doors that are accessible for fresh air on really nice days, as well as the staff. You can tell the staff truly love fitness and reaching goals.Best,Jonathan
Best gym in Nashville! If you’re in Nashville and aren’t working out here you’re doing it all wrong! Get here and join, thank me later!
Great space with plenty of equipment for all variations of exercises. Staff was courteous and very hospitable. This gym is acclimated for beginner and advanced athletes looking to improve their lifestyle.
This place is pretty cool! Nice equipment, spacious, nobody breathing down your neck, no judgement AT ALL! I actually like it better than Planet Fitness! The receptionists are helpful and direct, professional and kind! I really wish Gym 5 had more water fountains though...aside from that, I love it and I definitely recommend this place as a go-to spot for a good workout! So Gym 5, I give you 5 stars! Great job guys!
Cool place to lift! Has what you need to get a good lift in.
Came for a one day pass while in town on vacation. If your a gym head then this is a great gym to visit. Nice variety of equipment.
Parked in the Gym 5 parking lot not knowing it was only gym parking (there are no signs). The worker who approached us requesting we move was beyond aggressive and condescending.
Nice atmosphere and the right equipmemt.
Awesome local option with indoor / outdoor space, tons of weights even when at high capacity, and friendly staff.
I worked out at Gym5 seven days a week for nearly a year and a half. This place was my sanctuary and really felt like a family! The equipment is well maintained, it’s always clean, and I was always greeted by a smiling, helpful face. I’ve since moved across the country and I wish I could have taken Gym5 with me! Do yourself a favor and go check out the best damn gym in Nashville!
Great gym in East Nashville. Has everything you need to get your work in. Friendly staff. Love the outdoor workout area. Excited to see the changes/improvements since the tornado.
Great gym, but horribly inconvenient weekend hours. Staff are only sometimes friendly. Owner does not accept feedback. Regarding hours staff said “We’ve heard this a lot, but the owner does not think we should change.”
Hands down the best gym Ive ever belonged to. I was a member from 2011-2013 and only stopped when I moved out of town.No nonsense! Everyone is respectful of the equipment (and theres lots of it!).And my god... they actually have multiple squat racks. That alone is enough to justify you becoming a member.Im back in town, and you can bet Ill be signing up again.
In town for work nice spot to get a workout but a week pass was a bit pricey compared to most gyms full month prices
Awesome local gym with all the equipment youll need. Really cool grungy vibe, but everyone there was really nice. My wife and I dropped in for the day and really enjoyed working out there!
A great gym that gets better and better! Generally, if a workout facility or fitness center stays the same, as far as equipment goes, they are ahead of the game. At most places there is a gradual decline just from traffic and wear & tear but Gym 5 has continued to improve by adding new pieces and upgrade their facilities from day one. Clean, cool vibe and low-key but helpful staff. Ive been doing this a long time and this place is top notch!
Great gym with plenty of squat racks, machines and free weights. They also have two Olympic platforms with bumper plates, and an outdoor area with a sled and additional free weights. Treadmills as well.Whatever your goals are, powerlifting, physique sport, functional fitness or just general fitness, this place has the equipment to accommodate you.I came here with my gf while visiting Nashville and we got day passes. I sincerely appreciated the veterans discount which brought the day passes down to $5 each from $10.
This is an excellent gym all-around. Whatever you need (when it comes to equipment), I bet they have it. I tried several other gyms in the area before I found this one. I’ve been loving it ever since.
Great diversity of equipment and classes, and theyre constantly upgrading. Its a little cramped, but thats what youd expect for a gym in the heart of East Nashville. More expensive than a big box gym, but theyre also no-contract, and theyll let you pause your membership if you cant make it in for a while.
Best gym in Nash!
I like the gym very much. The equipment is adequate and it works. Staff is great. My only concern is its hours. They have bankers hours. They open at 9 & 10 on Saturday & Sunday.They close at 5 on Saturday, 4 on Sunday.Come on!
Very low key, especially if you go late morning...9-10ish. You will practically have the whole place to yourself. Low price, nice staff and it’s always clean!
Reasonably priced and it has all the basics plus some good classes. Never too crowded. If it had a dry sauna and offered the Hip Hop spin class more often, it would be perfect.
Stopped in while I was in town on vacation to get a good workout in and I’m glad I did! Clean, good vibes and great equipment!
Its a gym. A nice gym, nice people. Had what you need, but not everything youd want. Would recommend
The best!
This is exactly the kind of gym I love. Great strength training section/equipment, only about 5-7 people in when I go at 6:30 am, and the showers are clean and spacious.
It was packed with people..
Has everything I need. No frills, clean, good equipment, staff is great. Best part, theyre never too crowded so I dont have to wait for equipment. I wish they were open a little later on the weekends, though.
Great gym with plenty of equipment and a clean and friendly environment ! I would highly recommend
Great local gym, lots of equipment. Needs more stair climbers.
Nice friendly staff. Good selection of equipment. Plenty of room.
Nice place thank yall so much
Great!I ducked in here randomly, while visiting the city on business, and my experience proved quite positive. Gym5 had everything: a full range of good, quality machines and racks, and the necessary compliment of free weights; a whole room of cardio equipment and mats (and punching bags!); extras such as tanning beds and snacks and what-have-you. The floor was clean and comfortable, as was the mens locker room. Also, the attendant who sold me my (reasonably priced) daypass was friendly and available. In the end, it all contributed to my having a good workout, such that I had to come back the next day and do it all over again :DBig thanks to everyone here, for providing a place for me to lift weights and destress. Keep up the good work.
Pretty cool place, the staff is helpful if you have any issues and from my experience the trainers were friendly
By far the best proper gym in Nashville.
Figured Id put a review on here since most of them are old. Its pretty nice here. This is the only gym Ive been to in Nashville (besides a couple of YMCAs), so that take that for what its worth. I primarily focus on power-lifting style lifting (mostly barbell and squat rack), though I would hardly call myself a power lifter. They recently got a power rack to add to the squat rack, which is nice. I dont have much experience with the machines, but they seem to get the job done from what Ive seen despite looking a little older. Staff is friendly and its hardly ever that crowded apart from the typical 5pm-6:30pm time slot. There is a decent (maybe 8?) amount of treadmills (only go up to 12MPH), some ellipticals, older looking stationary bikes, one stair-master, and one old concept 2 rower.I would recommend to the casual lifter, casual gym-goer and body builder types. Definitely would not recommend for anyone looking to get into proper (read: olympic) weightlifting. I would go for 5 stars if they were open later on weekdays and weekends and a few more pieces of equipment (another rower, lifting platform, dumbbells that go past 100lbs)
Equipment is all older and very outdated. Some machines dont ever have grip pads so you are literally just holding the bar where the pad used to be. Barbells feel like they are coming apart when you set them down. Dumbells are old and takes you a few seconds to find the ones you want (if they even have the ones you want). Straps broken on row machine. Screen doesnt work on bike. Dont even have 35lb weights so you have to only use 10,25, & 45---and there arent a ton of those so on busy days you can barely find weights. They keep the radio in the gym incredibly low so bring headphones or its hard to really get into the workout. Just not at all what I expected for the nicer gym in East nashville to be when Im paying $40/month.
My favorite no frills gym in Nashville.
Nice gym, but no air conditioning
Great no frills gym. Gets the job done!
Old school, good equipment, good vibe.
A great place to be grown.
It is NOT worth the fee ladies bathroom was nice with amenities but its an all open area type of gym very tiny awkwardness
This gym doesn’t let you cancel your membership in person and makes you go cancel by email but provides no feedback or confirmation of you trying to cancel. Charges your credit card anyways. The people sitting at the front desk doesn’t help you, or can’t. This gyms customer service is terrible and tries to bleed out every single penny out of you.
Its the best for grunting and sweating.
Great Gym!
Lots of weights here.
🙏👍
