Best gym I have ever joined. Gabe has been nothing but kind, genuine and straight forward with me. Everyone at this gym is willing to lend a hand with spotting and help when ever you ask or if they just think they can help out. Best experience I have had a gym and the best atmosphere for sure. Just know this is not a fitness center.

Open 24-7 supported us during Cov-19 so Im very grateful to this place

I have been to many Gyms in my life time ranging garage gyms to international military gyms that have state of the art equipment. But nothing compares to the atmosphere of Gstandard. The people are amazing, motivating and helpful. Gabe is always ready to help. I will be a lifelong member!

So I been into bodybuilding weight lifting and power lifting since I was 16 years of age and I got say from all the gyms/training facilities i been in from California to tacoma this is by far the best place i have ever had the pleasure to train at. Everything thing from gabe the owner being a awesome person with amazing customer service and awesome advice if you ask to the amazing members that push you to strive to be better and better and push you to get that one extra rep the equipment is great and the environment has that old school feel that commercial gyms do not have. If you are looking for a gym that has everything perfect and want to improve yourself this is the place to go to.

Me and my husband were so excited to join this gym. Looked great. Reached out to their email address. Gabe the owner responded to contact him by cell phone which I thought was a little weird since their email address is posted. Anyway I also saw a negative review about drug use at his gym on yelp. I emailed him and just asked him about it since we didn’t want to work out at a gym that has steroid and other drugs used. He told me to never contact him again, and that we weren’t welcome in his gym. Guess that answered my question on the drug use and dealing going on at that gym. Steer clear people. Clearly there is drug use and drug dealing going on if his response was to never contact him again when we simply asked a very simple question.

I love going to this gym with my husband, everyone is so friendly and everyone is so encouraging and I really feel comfortable working out around everyone. I know that I will get to where I want to be soon, thank you Gabe for this opportunity and for having such a great atmosphere that makes people keep wanting to go back.

I have been to quite a few gyms and g standard is my absolute favorite! I traveled all the way from port orchard and paid the bridge toll everyday just to train here but just recently had to cancel because I just couldnt afford the commute anymore. I had no problem canceling at all it was very easy and painless so dont believe the people who say canceling was a hassle.

This is a gym that has gained a growing positive reputation, even internationally. I receive daily posts on Instagram about all that is happening there, and the sense of community, excitement, and yes, even fun, flows out of those posts. Its noisy, boisterous, energetic, and above all focused on one main goal: get fit. In the area? Got some time? Youll get a fantastic pump. But do you want a great memory after that, one you will carry for good while? Put G-Standard Gym on your Places-I-Gotta-Get-To List. Its on mine!

I started training at G Standard just under a year ago and since day one it has been nothing short of amazing. If you go to a typical fitness center or normal corporate gym G Standard is the complete opposite in the best ways possible. For starters Gabe Moen the owner is very professional, kind and is very informative. The atmosphere is A1. You can be the smallest guy or girl in the gym and ask the biggest person in there for a spot or advice and everyone has no problem helping you out. This gym is made for bodybuilders and powerlifters and the minute you walk in the gym that is the exact tempo you get, because that’s what it takes to get you to accomplish those goals and get that next PR. Everyone in the gym is very kind and nice and there is no “gym creeps” because people don’t come there to “workout” they come to train and work there butts off. I will NEVER go to another gym. G Standard is the NW MECCA of bodybuilding and powerlifting and it proves it day in and day out.

Best gym around no comparison, can’t beat the atmosphere and dedication you find here.

Awesome people. Great bodybuilding/powerlifting gym. Lots of weights and machines!

I just had to cancel my membership after moving out of the area but I wanted to show my appreciation one last time. This is a great gym, period. The members are as nice as can be and never have a problem helping you out if youre new or need some advice. The atmosphere is incredible for lifting and staying motivated. Nothing but good energy in this place all the way around. I didnt know the owner super well but the few times I spoke with him he comes off as a normal, down to earth guy who truly wants the best for his members. If youre in Tacoma I recommend this gym above all others.

Great gym. Good people. Not for the cookie cutters.

This is by far one of the best gyms in the NW! Ive lived in Tacoma my entire life and have been lifting for over 12 years and just recently came upon this gym since covid hit. Boy let me tell you I wish I would have found this gym earlier. If you live in the area and are looking to change you physique with hard work and dedication then this is the place to do it. You will not find a gym with better members that push you to your max. The nonverbal competition is unmatched. You are who you surround yourself with and working out here around so many beasts almost guarantees that you will give your all each workout. That said the environment is welcoming to all experience levels.

For anyone that needs to train, GStandard is your new home. Anyone just starting out, there is plenty of mentoring and help from members, trainers, and the owners. Everyone there (from all walks of life) is friendly and supportive. Safe, secure, and always available.

This is the best gym I have ever been too it has a great environment and tons of equipment

It’s a great gym to be apart of. Very inviting, awesome atmosphere, the best music and friendly faces. In the mist of this pandemic and all the stress it’s nice to have a safe place to release and let go of all your worries.

Been an incredible experience since I stepped in the door! Great vibes and Gabe is awesome. Feel really comfortable and welcome!

I called to ask for more information. I expressed my concerns about covid and he said, I dont like your attitude stay the f-out of my gym then hung up on me. This complete disregard for the safety of themselves and their members is troubling.

Great Gym and the owners really care about the health an well being of their members.

GStandard is unlike any gym Ive ever been to. Everyone there is unbelievably friendly. Ive worked out in fitness centers for several years and never had so many people even smile at me or say hi like they do here (partly my fault because I have terrible RBF haha). Ive only been working out here a couple months and Ive had people offer to spot me, help me find bodybuilding/posing coaches, and just speak to me in general. Regulars say hi when they see each other and people hype each other up all the time. The energy is motivating. The womens room has a large mirror great for posing/photos and is always clean/stocked. The women there arent catty either like in other fitness centers Ive been to. People genuinely want to help others and everyone there is there to work out not just hang out on equipment. Its also 24hrs which is the reason my husband and I started there. I absolutely recommend it for people serious about lifting. Ive learned a lot from being there a short time.

This gym is the best gym in Washington state!! You walk in and you want to work out because of the environment and people. Gstandard has done so much for me mentally. Most of all the Mr. and Mrs. Moen are the most genuine people ever.

Run by a couple of ugly meatheads

GStandard is the Mecca of the PNW. If you want to go to a gym where lifting is king, people are serious about training and experience the camaraderie of the strength community, this is the place to be!

Great Experience. Great equipment & massive ppl. Great for motivation. 💯

This gym looks like a really great place. I would totally work out here. Unfortunately the owner is seemingly on far too much trenbolone, and dealing with deep seeded emotional and physical shortcoming insecurities. His pathological jealousies over his fiancé tell a story of a life long struggle of developing proper self value. To anyone looking at working out here, I would say absolutely do so. Simply be weary around the knuckle dragging man child. Please be sensitive to his fragile ego. And pity him for the emotions fragility he has been dealing with his whole life.

Awesome gym!! Great atmosphere! Month to month rates and 24/7 access. Best gym in the area.

This is the best gym that you’ll ever train in your life. Great equipment great atmosphere highly recommend you check this place out

LOVE. THIS. GYM.

I cannot thank Gabe enough for the culture, experience I have encountered at G standard. I dont think I have ever felt so alive in a gym. This building is a solid place to escape from the world and get down to business. Everyone is friendly and willing to help. Absolutely one of the best places to workout!

Me: Looking for a powerlifting gym for my wife and I. Wondering if I can drop byOwner: There is no staffing. You get access after joining. You can look at the pictures.Me: How much is membership?Owner: $55.00 initiation, $55.00 a month.Me: Thats $220 off the bat. Would kind of like to see what Im getting.Owner: I dont babysit the club, I did that for xx years, (blah, blah.) And you have to know a member to get in Me: Im kinda new here. I dont know any of the local powerlifters.Owner: Look, you wanna gym or not!Ooookaaaay.Dont bother unless youre one of the owners buddys.

The owner is super rude. $55 A month is pretty expensive for a not so new gym. Plus he told me he only takes venom cash app or PayPal which makes me feel like he tries to avoid taxes or some thing. Why won’t you take a regular visa ? After I asked the owner why are his fees a little higher than other Gyms he just simply hung up and stopped answering my calls.

Love this place. The best gym around if you want 24/7 access and real weights. No planet fitness BS.

Overall great experience, this is the gym I’ve been looking for! Lots of great equipment and weights! Best atmosphere I’ve seen in a gym people are all nice and Gabe the owner is very helpful and does group sessions! You can play your own music and crush a great workout!

Loved this place! Joined the other day and and Ive made this my new gym to go to. Everybodys really friendly, and if you are serious about muscle bulding and goals. This is the place to go to. If you are looking for a pool,sauna, or other things, Go elsewhere cause this isnt the gym for you. Its a Hardcore type GYM. NOT a fitness center.

You get what you put in. Music is loud. Members are supportive. Gabe is very approachable. He has really helped inspire and motivate my kids. Having a place where my kids can go and learn to lift and exercise is great. So many chains don’t allow kids on the floor.

I have no been in a gym like this in years!! Very happy I found a new home. The gym is geard more towards bodybuilding/powerlifting but has something for everyone!!

Definitely one of the best gyms Ive been to. Gabe (owner) is very helpful and always willing to offer advice. Everyone there is very friendly as well. And amazing equipment! Highly recommend.

Overall I think the gym is a typical setup and very similar to your local Y or La Fitness yet he charges $55 a month for his membership. You will see a different side of the owner if you ever wish to cancel your membership.I truly believe he wants to make a great environment for those to lift but his business practices seem alttile skeptical to me as you have to pay via cash app and cancelation hassles are unflattering.He also compares his prices to corporate gyms and how much lower they are then his $55month. However your corporate gyms such as Crunch/Planet are $10month, LA Fittness $25, and they Y which is $20 so unsure what corporate gyms he is referring to.

G standard has charged our card several months after cancelling our membership due to moving away from the area. The owner has been less than helpful in resolving the issue and makes it out to be a burden to him. This isn’t the first I’ve heard of this issue, and it is starting to reveal itself as a trend. Save your money and find a new gym. This is no “Mecca”. It is a scam. I used to enjoy this place, but it has evolved into a drama filled cesspool that I don’t want to be a part of.

Awesome environment. You do not workout here, you are supposed to train harder. Mecca

Going to the gym as a girl has always been a somewhat dreaded experience. Wandering around to find the equipment needed and being hit on by men every step of the way was never fun. GStandard has provided a place where I can train without worrying about being hit on or feeling uncomfortable. The atmosphere is fun, the people are helpful and not intimidating, and it feels SAFE. If you want a gym to train at that feels like home and keeps it fun, this is the place for you! You don’t need to be a bodybuilder or macho man, girls and glitter are welcome too!

Only if ZERO stars were a thing.Isn’t military friendly...Owner threw a fit when I wanted to cancel the membership and services and yelled at my leadership in the process. Very unprofessional character, he is only sweet and nice until you want to cancel or want your money back. He claims to be military friendly but he really isn’t and also heard bad reviews from other soldiers as well.He only cares about getting your money but doesn’t care to train you. Also tries to lie about how long you’ve been training with him.Won’t be seeing my money for overly priced training. Waste of time and money. Which was a grand ($1000) for 30 minute training for TWO days and he had his woman cover for him the first day.This is what planet fitness was trying to warn us about!

This is the most amazing gym I have ever gone to! The owners Stephanie and Gabe are incredible. From the moment I walked in Stephanie instantly made me feel at home and although I was quiet and shy she broke me out of my shell by talking to me and getting me to open up. Within 2 minutes...literally 2 minutes I was smiling and couldnt wait to come back. Stephanie AND Gabe are both incredible trainers and have moved mountains for me!!!! I have unfortunately moved but am still working with them and will continue to do so. The gym is seriously amazing. If youre sick of corporate gyms, being started at when you go into a gym, hearing people gossip about others or even you in the gym, and are seriously just wanting to train and be around positive, non-judgemental people then you should seriously try it out!!!!! I was in Washington alone and met so many incredible people each time I came to the gym! Everyone says hello and if you have a question about something everyone is willing and able to help you out!!!! I wish I could give the gym 1000000 stars because 5 just isnt enough. Thank you guys. Keep doing what youre doing!!!!!!!

Gabe and his staff are great. Very friendly and knowledgeable. If you’re looking for a non corporate cookie cutter gym, this is a great place to train.

STAY AWAY!!!!VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED...it was a good experience for me, cool vibe and all around good people. BUT when it came to canceling my membership. there was NO ONE who help NO ONE would answer the phone NO ONE would call back and they keep pulling money out of my account...signing up was a breeze but for the amount of money payed monthly. DEFINITELY NOT WORTH IT!

Great gym! Get in, get your workout.Great place to start a fitness journey, whether you are a beginner and need more guidance (they will help you) or experienced.

Its a gym with nightclub vibe. Its a real gym with iron and grit. Everyone is treated like family

This gym is absolutely the best!! I just signed up for the body transformation and I feel amazing about it. The owner Gabe is absolutely supportive, uplifting, he doesn’t judge or hassle you. Gabe believes in my goals just as much as I do. He is very educated and knows his stuff. He doesn’t BS you or lead you on. He is honest and straightforward. He checks on your progress daily. Before I would feel intimidated walking into other gyms BUT at G Standard I DONT!! I feel like family. There are ALL types of bodies, experience levels so you have support galore. Tons of equipment options. Gabe is the absolute BEST and I recommend anyone to this gym. Great loud music, no judgement, stress free, a place where I can go and not feel uncomfortable. With Gabe and the other trainers support (as well as members) I WILL reach my goal!!

Hands down the best gym in the pacific northwest. Old school body building grit with knowledgeable owners who have a true passion for helping people reach their fitness goals. Loud music and great equipment make for a truly one of a kind experience. Love that they have a cafe with supplements, smoothies and other things to help with nutrition and overall health. Really appreciate the one stop experience.

Cool people and great owner BUT. it is such a hassle to contact them if you want your money back due to cancellation. i loved the gym until i needed to stop payment for a month due to a trip out of town. i’ve been getting ignored, AND they still pulled the money out of my account. it’s over priced in my opinion, but i joined because i genuinely liked the place. but if this is how they treat there customers especially when it comes to money...I want no part of it.

Solid gym has a old school feel lots of great equipment

I love this place. I just love it. Training here is amazing. And the owners are awesome. When I have an opportunity I am going to look for a coach here to compete next year

Just an update to my previous review, I still give this gym one star now especially because after calling to cancel my membership I received a confirmation via email but three days later my account was charged. Eventually I got a refund and then was told that I did not have to worry about anything. Today, the owners sent me a club agreement stating tat I have dues to pay for the month of November! My membership has been terminated for three weeks according to the owners wife. Again, I do not recommend this gym to anyone, they are bad business!

Great place to workout. Staff is friendly, gym-goers as well. Never really been to a gym where people who dont know you take the time to say hi and bye. Inexpensive monthly and a good range of equipment and space. Enough fit people come here to motivate you to work harder too.

Dopest gym Ive ever been to🤟🏼

Actually this gym is great! Owners are super friendly, and have vast knowledge of what it requires and good motivational tactics to achieve your goals. They have some direct competition from their neighboring gym the Training Pit whose environment and staff have a similar style and approach but there is plenty of gym to go around for everyone.

Great gym for workout👍

The environment is fun, owner is great and very knowledgeable. Definitely check it out!

Wish I could give 0 star and wish I read reviews before hand . The owner is very rude and always seems to yell . He never answer questions and except only payments through apps like (cash app or PayPal ) . Seems like this guys is avoiding taxes or something . When trying to call and ask him an important question he gets angry and hangs up, The gym is not very clean which makes it uncomfortable to work out . $55 a month is such a rip off for this kind of service

Never been there but I wanted to give 5 stars just because some guy gave it a 1 star because it wasnt the stupid type of cross training gym hes used to. He probably went in and felt inadequate thus resulting in a small rating to match his feeling of being a little guy... Seen your gym on youtube... Looks great!

I weigh about 15 kg. And I could not lose weight with the diet. So I decided to go to the club. It was the best of all the clubs in the city, I chose. Experienced and professional coaches and best sports equipment.

Great gym but horrible at communicating with gym guests. Couldnt get a hold of anyone for 3 weeks to cancel my membership. Very disappointed ☹️ in the lack of customer service experience.

Old school feel is the best part about the gym, hardcore lifters, people-friendly environment.members and staff are more like family.

I travel over 60 miles each way to work with Gabe and take part in the amazing energy he has created in G Standard. Gabe has literally helped to keep me alive and thriving through Lupus and many other health battles. He always helps me find a way. This is place is called the PNW Mecca for good reason. My favorite part about the culture at G Standard is that regardless of what your goals are or how far you need to go to achieve them Gabe and everyone involved with G Standard meets you where you are at and supports your efforts to achieve them. The person that is working on body transformation is just as valued as the Pro Athlete. Anyone who is serious about meeting their goals is made to feel welcome. As far as knowledge and passion for what he does Gabe is a Stand out as a Business owner. The energy at G Standard is contagious. I also really love the new location. Even on a Grey PNW day the loud music and expansive ceiling make the place feel bright and energized. There is not another person or another place I trust more with my health. When it comes to a resource for nutrition, training knowledge, a fantastic space and culture G Standard has you covered. The bonus is the new pricing. Dang! Thank you Gabe Moen for creating such a great place for those that want it to meet and exceed their goals and have fun in the process!

In my best Arnold Schwarzenegger voice, so much muscles! It is a great place to get ripped and change your life for the better!

Old school gym, loud music the perfect motivation for a workout !

The owner Gabe only wants your money. Very rude and unprofessional “business owner”. Claims that soldiers still pay for their gym memberships even when they’re deployed (over 9 months) which is highly unlikely. Gives you a hard time when its time to cancel. Be prepared to go to court if you want your money back.

Great people, great owners, great training! A gym built around those whos goal is to be fit, those who want to gain muscle, and those whos goal it is to compete. Owned and trained by 2 IFBB pro athletes.

Im not apart of this gym. Im just looking around. But is this a good gym to get training for USPA powerlifting meets.

Great environment. Great equipment. Love that its open 24hrs. Awesome staff.

Was only inside for a minute but its definitely a gym for people who wanna get big and lift big

Awesome barebones gym. They have everything you need. Owners are super awesome.

The best gym. No nonsense heavy lifting.

Best bodybuilding/ power lifting gym around...not afitness center

Great gym if youre serious about lifting. As an earlier reviewer said, its filled with meatheads. Perfect! If you want a million iterations jazzercise class go somewhere else. If you want to actually lift, go here. The equipment is great and tailored to those that are interested in building muscle or strength. I frequent many gyms which are packed with lots of fancy weight machines a bajillion cardio machines but completely miss necessary, empirically tested equipment. This gym has what you NEED.

They want to charge $10 less than YMCA, yet have no pool, sauna, steam room, courts, or classes. Big ripoff, and everyone there is a musclehead. Find somewhere else.

Great place to work out

Great gym, great people

Best place for training

New lifestyle

Great place
