Find the Best Gym Near You: Top [12] Fitness Centers in St. Petersburg, FL

Lauren Syakov I’ve been training at this gym for a year plus now, and it’s easily one of the best fitness environments I’ve experienced. What really stands out is the staff. The trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to give quick tips or adjustments without being pushy. The front-desk team sets a positive tone the moment you walk in, and the whole place feels supportive rather than intimidating.

HM L Top Notch Training for Those Concerned About Their Safety. Despite the facility being about an hour away I registered for the BYOB - Be Your Own Bodyguard seminar. It was well worth the drive. The instructor and instruction was superb. Excellent advice and training. Another person in the seminar also had over 40 years of martial arts experience and we both agreed how valuable the seminar was. Whether you’re a beginner or have several black belts, this seminar is an investment almost everyone should make.

Michele Merced This was a phenomenal experience! I went to a hot yoga flow with Yogi Taylor and it was miraculous. The energy was calm and grounding, and the practice was quite forming showing the form of the movements. I enjoyed the clean bright space. The staff was friendly and awesome! I’m def coming back!!

PAUL E DOBRACKI This is a great gym, especially if you want a hassle free workout. No large groups of youths working out and sitting on the equipment socializing. Definitely a mature crowd, not just in age but in the seriousness of working out. Feels like a private club. Never crowded, plenty of equipment, never a wait for equipment. The cleanest gym I’ve been to in a long time. Every time I’ve been there,there has been an attendant on duty making sure it stays that way. I’ve haven’t seen any broken equipment. Finally the staff is great. Katie and Tom were able to answer all my questions when I came to check out the facility. I felt so comfortable there that I joined that day. No regrets at all, really enjoy working out here Final line, if you are looking for a club that’s clean, well maintained, well equipped and not crowded, this is the club to join. Ask for Katie.

Taylor C After YEARS of not going to the gym I felt so welcomed and comfortable at Anytime fitness while signing up for my membership today. Diane was AMAZING and I already know she will continue to be a resource moving forward. So excited to keep challenging myself and it makes it easier with such a supportive environment~ thanks again, Diane!!

Kimberly Edmiston The personal coaching workouts keep me focused on form to make sure I’m getting the best results possible during the 20 minute workout. The equipment shows my previous results which always motivates me to work harder. I’ve gained so much more strength from these 20 minute sessions than I did when I went to the gym on my own. The entire staff is always such a pleasure to workout with. Really great people!

Eli Chapman This is an incredible gym. The owner is great and all the people there are super friendly. I was there on a day pass and multiple people came up to ask if I was new and offered to answer any questions. The equipment is also incredible. A truly great place to train.

Babak Rezvani Ive been going to the LA Fitness on 4th Street in St. Pete for a while now, and it’s been a great fit for my workout routine. The gym is clean, well-organized, and has a wide variety of equipment. Whether I’m lifting weights or doing cardio, I never have to wait long—even during busier times. The staff here is genuinely kind and welcoming. They create such a positive, low-pressure atmosphere—it really feels like they want you to succeed and enjoy being there. That friendliness goes a long way. One of the best parts? The crowd. Everyone is super chill and respectful. It’s not one of those gyms that feels like a reality show set — no egos, no pressure, just real people getting their workouts in. That kind of vibe makes it easy to focus and feel comfortable, no matter your fitness level. If you’re looking for a solid, no-drama gym in St. Pete with a great atmosphere, I highly recommend this LA Fitness.

Intice Dance Fitness Best location and best staff. I love the trainers and staff at Amped. Steve-O, Lauren, Alexis and Anthony all go above and beyond to create a great community. Alexis and Lauren are so knowledgeable and have helped me along my fitness journey so much. I’m so grateful for them. Can’t wait for the remodel and the new amenities they are adding to the downtown location, it can’t come soon enough!

Delaney Driver This review is long overdue, especially considering I’ve taken over 100 classes at Freebird Fitness. I became a member during the hardest time of my life while going through chemo, a double mastectomy, and radiation. Even writing this makes me emotional because I had always been such an active person and suddenly all of that was taken away from me. When I was ready to try moving my body again, I struggled to find a place that would be flexible with my health circumstances, my membership, and most importantly make me feel comfortable walking in. Freebird became that place. I was bald with baby hairs trying to grow back, dealing with horrible hot flashes, and later unable to do any upper body work for a long time, and still I never once felt out of place. Freebird was truly a community and a home for me. Dani has such a gift for making every single person feel seen and special, and that is exactly how I feel every time I am there. And don’t ask me to pick a favorite coach because I genuinely love all of them. Each coach has their own style, but they are all so kind, encouraging, and passionate about what they do. I honestly feel like I gained a second family during a time when I was rebuilding not just strength but confidence. I will forever sing their praises. This is your sign to get off ClassPass and officially join this community.

Emmy Thach I highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area. i have cycled through various gyms in the past and this by far is the best long term. this amped location embraces such a safe and positive space. from the front desk team to the cleaning staff they are all incredibly hard working and personable. furthermore, i must strongly advocate for my trainer, fiona. she is an absolute powerhouse within these walls internally & externally she is undoubtedly an exceptional asset to this gym. fiona possess a wide range of knowledge regarding fitness/ wellness, she is passionate and committed to ensuring the best results for her clients. she curates thoughtful / intentional workout plans tailored to my goals to maximize my proficiency at the gym and offered incredible insight to prioritizing one’s fitness and health. i can not advocate for fiona’s performance enough as a trainer and as an employee overall. i am beyond impressed & inspired by her tenaciously infectious attitude during our sessions i always look forward to them & suggest her to everyone.

Jessica Sauerman I love this gym!!! I have been going there for 8 years and recently decided to try out the training they offer! My trainer was Mayan and she is amazing!!! I went from gaining weight and feeling like I could never get back into shape like I use to be..she not only helped me reach that goal.. she made it where I am so much more confident to workout on my own and know what to do and the correct way to workout specific target areas! She also increased my strength! I am stronger than I was 10 or 20 years ago!! Mayan is the best!! Request to train with her you will not regret it!!
