Has always been THE place to get a serious workout, from free weights, treadmills and stationary bikes to an elyptical thrown in for good measure. Bobby hasnt changed his rates for the past 25 yrs. Remember, if you go there to work out, Go big or go home!

Fantastic community of people here. Everyone is happy to help if you need any, and the gym has everything you need.My only gripe is that this place has terrible hours on the weekends. I wish they were open until at least 8pm on weekends.

Bought a 3 month membership, throughout the whole time the owner kept on asking me if I actually bought a membership. The space was limited so I could not do excercises such leg lifts or Barbell raises. Its cheap but you get what you paid for. Id rather pay full price at a more professional gym.

Very old school place, reminds me of Average Joes gym from Dodgeball. You have to wear a mask while working out due to COVID-19 and they have disinfectant everywhere for use. Its really safe

I trained there from 1982-1988 while a student at Texas State. The rates are still the same as 30 yrs ago! Very functional and effective equipment. Great environment... encouraging, casual, and friendly. Without a doubt, the best gym Ive ever trained at.

No contract and a great month to month price. More importantly, there is a lot of equipment you just dont see at newer gyms. This is a place to work out. No broken down machines, no ego lifters, no nonsense.

I love this gym! It has a laid back but serious vibe which is what is missing with modern gyms. It definitely makes you want to hit the weights and cardio hard! And who can beat $2 a visit?

Review №17

Stop paying for contracts you dont need nor do you want! San Marcos Athletic Club has the best pricing around San Marcos! Ive been going here for a year and prior to going here I almost signed up with Golds gym, but the people that work at golds made me feel like any other person who wants me to sign a contract evil at San Marcos Athletic Club its $2 a day, which is great for me cuz I dont always have time to go to the gym. And if I decide not to go back its that simple I dont have to try to get out of a contract I dont have to haggle or deal with them I literally just come and go as I please! I would highly recommend San Marcos Athletics Club to anybody!

You wont find any fancy gadgets or complicated Butt Blaster 2044 machines here. You have everything you need to be fit and healthy. Weights and cardio equipment. Their prices are competitive, and it is the most relaxed gym atmosphere in San Marcos. Ive been going here since high school. Loved it then, love it today.

SMAC is best gym for those who simply want to do real work. Most of the people who go here are dedicated to their fitness goals and always friendly. Plus with unbeatable rates its the only gym I would recommend to anyone in the area.

Review №25

It doesnt matter if you are a casual or dedicated fitness person, youll find exactly what you need at SMAC. Staff is super friendly and nice, gym is clean and the equipment is always in good shape. Newer treadmills are nice to beat the heat. No pressure to join and its just $2 to workout. Cant beat that.

This gym has all the benches, squat racks, dumbbells, cables, machines & ATTITUDE you will ever need! Gym of some of the strongest & coolest dudes & dudettes you will ever meet. Great lifting environment for powerlifters, bodybuilders, and weekend warriors. And a deadlift platform, of course.

I was a member from 1999 to 2001, while doing undergrad at SWT (now TSU). BEST gym I have ever worked out at. Whenever I visit the Hill Country, I still make a point of visiting and working out at SMAC. I LOVE this place.

Review №36

Ive worked out a lot of gyms since I got out the Army. And may I say that nothing better than a military gym to where u have the freedom to work out any base and branch you want anywhere in the world. Now as a vet, Ive worked out at Gold gym,, Planet fitness, 24 hrs fitness, Worlds gym, Jims Gym, Family own gym, and even hotel n casino gym. These gyms are really nice and fancy but I just dont get the work out needed when it comes down to it. I think its the quality of weights and machines. It makes a lot of difference for me. Thats exactly I found here in Smac thats why am still on it. Biggest gripe that I have is the mens restroom/locker room. It can get nasty and smelly bcoz of the size. Another one is the radio station. Get some variety of musics pls or do I have to yell? :)

The owner is a tool, but for 2 bucks a day you can get done what you need to. There arent any quality cardio machines, but enough iron to throw around to get jacked.
