Where Locals Work Out: Best [15] Gyms and Fitness Centers in Peoria, IL

Rodney Yoswig Excellent facility, very clean place has about everything you could want for softball games. Everything seemed so convenient to access including parking. Well thought out.

Danielle Mikolajczyk They have fantastic instructors and nice equipment. The care they take with the students really shows in how well the kids skills progress. I would recommend this to parents thinking about giving their children the gift of gymnastics.

Rebecca Fulkerson Only five weeks in to the ten week challenge and results are being seen and felt! Atmosphere is awesome, everyone (coaches, trainers, other members) is amazing! You truly are on your own journey and no one is judging you but really only wants to be supportive. I’m glad I finally signed up!

Matthew Fahrenkrug My teenage daughter is going to Mt. Olympus, both for strength and high jump training. The skills that coach is teaching my daughter for high jump are far beyond the coaching knowledge that she was able to achieve In her normal middle school track season. I highly recommend Mt. Olympus. If you are looking for specialized training that you can’t achieve elsewhere. The scheduling is very flexible and we are hopeful with this continued off-season practice to make a big difference in her season come spring 2025

Dawn Dravo Great workout, excellent coaches. Group fitness and personal training. If you need some motivation this is the gym for you.

Delaney Ann This is such a fantastic place to work out! Theres plenty of equipment and its very well managed and clean. Even the other gym-goers are very nice, and everyone keeps to themselves. I never feel judged, even when Im only pressing the bar lol.

Madie Yanko FXB has been so meaningful and impacted my life greatly! The people there are so kind and will help you learn moves, footwork, form etc. if you’re struggling without asking during class. For me this has been so uplifting to have people just being supportive from the get go without even knowing my name. The classes are fun and push you to what your limit is so you can continue to improve every time you step foot into Farrell’s. Love these people!

Scott groenke Gym has great equipment, I never have to wait for a machine, and some of the best basketball courts in the area,its nice to run on there padded track,as well, place is always clean,and brand new looking, and never crowded,I sure enjoyed working there in 2000..ICC, custodian dept...

Amir Dorafshar Steve is a phenomenal coach and trainer. He pushes you to your limits, and gets the best out of you. In addition, he is a good hearted person and someone you can trust. I can’t say enough good things about G-Fit. It has become a staple part of my fitness routine and I have seen the results! Go G-Fit!!

Rachel Russell My boyfriend and I were in town for a couple days visiting his family and we both like to climb, so we looked up First Ascent and went for a chill morning sesh. The facility was near the river front area in a cool warehouse district. The staff were friendly and we had the gym almost all to ourselves on a Tuesday morning. Although the bouldering area was on the smaller side, the routes were challenging enough to keep us entertained for about 2 hours. Overall, a good morning and I would go back next time were in town!

Anne Peterson Some years ago I saw a friend of mine who looked like she really lost weight. So I asked her where she went and she told me Curves. Then when I moved to Peoria I saw one and at first procrastinated, but finally joined. All I can say is if youve struggled to get to where you want to get, you need to try out Curves. The staff is so helpful, and going through the circuit will have you in and out in no time. But one of the really great things is you will find other women who are like minded and just want to be the best version of themselves. It is a great place and I am SO glad I joined. And guess what I am finding I have curves!! Come and join us!!

Pat Sage Mike and his team do a fabulous job of providing an effective and efficient workout that is tailored to you. They gently challenge you so that you do get stronger and are able to lift more weight over time. Ive went there for about 4 months now and really appreciate being able to get in and out in 30 minutes.

Jack Oliver Hit my first workout this morning at Rivercity and it was absolutely phenomenal. The gym itself is really nice and is a good size space with solid equipment. The best part is the community and environment, everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Jamie one of the owners was super nice and I will definitely be coming back to Rivercity to hit more and workouts!!

Christina Alexander Excellent place to release all my stress the gym is clean people are nice and friendly great atmosphere.

James Since the new renter took over there has been no noticeable improvement to the health club’s condition. The equipment is outdated, often dirty, and in many cases, broken and unusable for extended periods. This has severely impacted our ability to maintain a consistent workout routine. The locker rooms are in a deplorable state and require thorough and regular cleaning. The closure of the pool and the permanent cancellation of several classes have further diminished the value of our memberships. Moreover, my wife has been approached multiple times in the parking lot by individuals looking into cars and soliciting money, which raises serious concerns about the safety and security of the premises. It is also disheartening to note that many staff members appear unhappy and have expressed intentions to seek employment elsewhere due to poor treatment. This atmosphere is far from the “premiere” health club experience that was promised under the new management. Peoria offers many superior health club alternatives that provide better facilities, security, and customer service.
