Hands down the best gym in Philly. This gym has something for everyone at any fitness level. There is an indoor track, a basketball court, squash courts, indoor pool and tons of fitness machines including free weights. There are also fitness studios for classes and a rock climbing wall. I've tried other gyms across the city, including a popular chain and the offerings just do not compare. I would recommend stopping by for a tour.

This is definitely one of the best gyms in Philly. It has everything you could want: cardio machines, free weights and machines, an indoor track, an indoor rock wall, a pool, squash courts, and even classes and physical therapy and personal trainers. I’ve been going here more specifically for the rock wall, and it is a great place to climb. The staff is very nice and supportive if you’re a first timer, giving you tips on climbing and helping you pick out shoes that are right for you.

Great facilities, got a pool, squash courts, climbing wall etc. in addition to normal gym equipment. The only downside is that between 5 and 7 pm it is difficult to find any equipment that isn't in use. You can, at least, book the squash courts in advance.
