Great atmosphere, and great equipment. This gym is worth every penny. The atmosphere is great due to everyone giving off good vibes. And the equipment is the best in the 804!!!

I’ve been meaning to write this review for a while because I’ve loved my experience with personal training and membership at The Trenches. Coming in as a new weightlifter, the trainers do an incredible job of meeting you where you’re at—while also pushing you / calling you on your BS when you need it. Beyond the training though, they’re just truly good people. They greet you by name, they check in, and they create a space where everyone feels welcome. Yes, the equipment is top tier—but the people are what keep me here. They’ve built a real community, and it shows. So thank you Juice, Zo, Justin, Zion, and Ty for kicking my butt this year. I appreciate you!

Not only is this a five star facility but all the staff are exceptionally knowledgeable, professionally personable, and ready to assist. Open 24/7 you’ll notice that it’s a safe and secure location with ample accessible parking. At the Trenches you’ll find the equipment is elite and well maintained. Most of the machines you will not find in the surrounding areas. Further, if you’re looking for a fun and friendly environment to learn/grow or challenge yourself, then it’s perfect for you. The Trenches culture is contagious and the community is truly unmatched. It’s an experience like no other!

Great people, great trainers, and great community. The training is bodybuilding focused, and the personal training really helped us gain momentum in understanding our diet, workouts, and limits. There are tons of machines, many of which I've never heard of, and a whole separate room focused on the lower body.
