The best gym. Great equipment

The best gym there is. Great equipment, staff and views of the water or indoor soccer :)

Everything is full speed ahead if you are vaccinated. Lockers are available and there is even soap in the showers.

The best gym there is. Great equipment.

The equipments are well separated and they provide sprays and towels to clean equipments before and after use. Currently not as crowded because of covid.

Very clean, organized gym, would definitely recommend.

Very friendly staff and trainers. Love seeing all the regulars there. I enjoy taking their work-out classes. There a plenty free weights and a decent amount of aerobic machines. The kids center is really awesome, our boys actually ask us to go there. Great gym for the whole family. A must go to gym in NE Seattle.

I go to this gym because I live nearby, and Im grateful for it because before they opened, the closest semi-decent gym was at Greenlake. MAC is a spacious, high-ceilinged two-level gym, a pleasant space; it never feels crowded, you never have to wait for equipment. And they offer a good selection of yoga and fitness classes. My one complaint about the space: it would be nice if they had a larger dedicated area for stretching and floor work. A small irritation: their web site doesnt post holiday hours. Should be easy enough to do, and no one wants to bug the staff by calling.

I got an unexpected charge besides my monthly payment recently, when I called in to ask what this is about, the lady answering the phone told me that it is the maintenance fee they charge every year for the first two member of a family. I told her that nobody told me this when I first sign up (there is initiation fee, annual fee, and monthly fee, but not maintenance fee), she said:No, its on the contract, you signed it, I was likewell, if you didnt clearly told me, you are expecting me read every line of contract in two minutes on your computer screen? It is actually NOT about the money--it is the way that they try to hide makes me feel uncomfortable, makes me feel I cant trust them with my credit card..... I understand that the lady signed me up might forgot to mention this to me at the beginning, it is okay if this was the case. However, the lady answered my phone insists that I was notified when I sign up---why would I even call to ask if I know about this charge? My phone was abruptly cut off....Anyway, horrible customer service!I gave two star only because my instructor of the class I take is great.

Joining Magnuson Athletic Club was one of the best things my wife and I have ever done. We joined in our early 60s and are still getting many benefits in our late 60s. We have learned so much about body mechanics, posture, balance, and fitness through our memberships. Improvements in core strength have helped my chronic back pain, and improvements in balance have probably prevented falls. We enjoy the group fitness and mind-body classes, but if these are not your cup of tea, MAC offers great equipment for individual workouts as well. We have made use of MAC personal trainers, who are outstanding, and well worth the cost. MAC staff are excellent and MAC is a friendly place to workout at. The facilities are clean and well-maintained.

Love the work out area. There is plenty of space to do your own thing. The staff that work there are amazing, super friendly! I lived in the parking lot for 4 months, and that place is like home to me.

Theyre the only game (gym) in town so they dont have to try too hard. Not a great sense of community or friendly vibe with some exceptions.Cons: There are a few staff members and trainers who are awesome! Other staff... not so great. Its a miracle if you walk in and are greeted by someone at the front desk, much less a smile. Some of the members are pretty rude, inconsiderate and uptight (avoid eye contact, dont clean their equipment or out away weights, spacial unawareness, etc). I just never was digging the environment and the leadership from the top down seems to be lacking - with some exceptions.Very inconsistent front desk service e.g. one young woman who works in the morning states to me that they will no longer let members leave their car keys up front to be stored in the desk. As I’m leaving my workout I see a member picking up their keys... from the front desk. This happened a few more times to my astonishment *sigh*Pros: some staff and members are exceptionally awesome. Tyger, one of the managers is always friendly and her and Chauncey are incredibly hard workers. Joseph at the front desk is equally as awesome. Im very impressed with many of their trainers too, and the group fitness classes are tremendous. Saras battle ropes classes are a great workout and a solid group of regulars. The equipment and machines, and free weights are very good too.Overall Im not impressed with the MAC and their customer service and overall vibe is pretty lackluster. Case is point, I canceled my membership to go back to my old gym (more climbing, free weights, martial arts, yoga, etc) and had a month to use the MAC until my membership officially expired. I go in to get what I thought was my final workout and say goodbye to some of the staff and members who I liked... only to be told my membership expired the day before. Thats fine. I assumed (incorrectly) that the young woman at the front desk would show some initiative to me, being a *former* member and all and simply allow me to go workout - since my membership literally expired the previous day. She told me she would have to charge me a drop in fee of $15. The money obviously wasnt the point, it was the simple principle and was the perfect embodiment of my experience as a member of the MAC...

People who work out here work out because its fun, not because of the latest trend. Lots of sizes and beautiful friendly faces in here. Loads of equipment. Loads of classes. Front desk is friendly and always available. Very clean and inviting!

I have been a member for years. The club is clean and equipment is all good. I have taken a few classes and the instructors I have had all seemed to do a good job. The staff has always been really nice.They do not push the personal trainers and have not tried it. I have noticed that the people who regularly use the trainers get some impressive results. I may try it in the near future.For awhile there were a few too many weight droppers but things seem to have calmed down a bit.

Love coach Sara. I have been going to MAC for 7-8 years now. After 2 children, I tried various classes to bring my weight down (I like all the classes here). True magic happened when I had Sara as my trainer. She helped me with my core strength which most of people need but don’t realize. This additional training allows me to do so much better with HIIT classes like burn and Tabata without suffering from lower back pain. I am so grateful for Sara’s help and recommend her to everyone I know. I also agree with other reviews about friendly staff and how clean the place has always been. The whole experience at MAC is remarkable!

The JCC is a tad on the expensive side, but if youll use it, its worth it. Always clean, never too crowded, helpful staff, wide variety of classes, and a television on every cardio machine! What more could you ask for?

Initial membership is a little costly, butthe access you get for it is more than enough. Im here just for the lap pool, but lockers with keys, towels, giant showers with all the soaps, a hot tub, a sauna / steam room... and thats jus tthe downstairs pool area...

Good for weights and indoor basketball. Haven’t played other indoor sports there. Staff is awesome.

Really great gym, new equipment, friendly staff, and clean environment. Personal trainers are friendly, but not at all pushy. Basketball court is in good condition though could use a sweeping more often, since it is used for classes and gets fairly slippery with dust.

Very clean, friendly, amazing views, great equipment! The best gym.

Great facility for cardio, weights and classes with cheerful every morning from Tiger!

This place has great equipment, classes and atmosphere. Its clean, they have a sauna and beautiful views of Lake Washington. Whats not to love?

Great equipment always works. Staff very friendly. good place to exercise

Very nice gym, has a full basketball court. Very expensive though

Great view and often not crowded equipment is well maintained and a lovely selection.

Cleaning facilities and a wide variety of classes or equipment for personal workout time. Polite employees, childcare and a massage therapist on sight.

Big, clean and numerous pieces of equipment.
