Fantastic experience: Recently joined this workout facility as a retired veteran. My wife and I found Catherine the owner to be friendly and extremely informative about her gym. I immediately felt comfortable with the accepting environment and cleanliness of the overall gym. The well organized security and access to hours during the early day and night very accommodating. I look forward to many hours of working out and meeting fellow fitness folks. Thank you Catherine. As Google only allows one review on a business. I will edit this one to encompass a session that I experienced from one of the trainers at this establishment. My first session was easily setup and coordinated with Jake. A certified personal gym trainer at this gym. I must convey, that I was very impressed to receive great personal training, from this gentlemen. Making me feel at ease with my senior age. While highly communicative with all aspects of any movement to be carried out. Always providing, clear and concise direction throughout the session. Certifying an impressive eye on me to ensure the safety and correct application to each action required. In addition his strong motivating instruction to gain the best from my workout sets. Really helped me to understand the limits of my abilities for gained results. Thank you Jake your experience and professionalism is greatly appreciated and respected.

Lucas Garton Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: great gym, awesome people but the music is just a bit too loud all the time. also some of the cables are in dire need of replacement, they’re stripped and even coming off the pulleys while doing exercises

Kerry Holloway Published on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: Used to be a good gym now it lacks leadership

Hal Shin Published on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Cancellation process was disappointing to say the least. Went to the front desk to clarify what the cancellation policies were, specifically to ask if there is an additional month of payment, and was told no. Lo and behold, I am still charged for another month, so I went to the gym to inquire and discover that my access card is no longer working. Then I call in, asking about a refund, and was told they will look into it. A couple of weeks later, I call again, and this time I'm told that the contract says I'm to pay for another month after I cancel. Which is fine, but I was told otherwise when I requested to cancel, they don't send you an email copy of the contract (iirc they file it internally after you sign), and I couldn't access the gym despite paying the additional month (to which they said my access card should've worked, but for some reason it works flawlessly through my membership and fails the moment I cancel ). The extra month of payment is no big deal, really, but the level of communication and professionalism is just... sad. Also--they don't communicate when the gym is closed. Is it that hard to email your members that the gym is closed due to a power outage? Tl;dr - Was told wouldn't get charged after cancellation, got charged, and couldn't access gym.

Fantastic experience: Local operated gym. My happy place I have gym international experience over 24 years, and I think I know how gym should look like Lol WCM has a friendly and responsible staff, affordable price. Very clean. I have been a client about 4 years, now I have to move ( so sad I can’t bring WCM with me Lol). I know how hard to find a gym built by athlete, most of them just regular commercial plastic establishment with a bunch of TV and tracks. This is old school gym and I love it, everything on a place, ergonomically right equipment . Equipment located in right zones. This gym will be great for weightlifters and for regular gym rats like me. I still looking for similar gym in Vancouver, but no luck.. yet. I think this is the best gym in CR. Sarah you are the best!

Positive experience: Stopped in here for a workout while on vacation. Was early morning and not busy at all. They had a very big variety of equipment snd weights. Not much for cardio, more weight training which was perfect for me.

Samantha Baldry-White Published on Google 4 years ago

Farro Mackenzie Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I stepped into this gym 6 years ago VERY out of shape and they welcomed me, and made me feel comfortable. When it came time for me to cancel my gym membership because work was driving me to the other side of town she understood. I had a taste of what was offered else where and NOTHING compares to how I feel when I step foot in WEST COAST MUSCLE.

Madison Ross Published on Google 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! I have worked out at WCM for 6 years now and at no point have I ever wanted to switch to another gym. I love the space, the people who work out there are from every walk of life, the staff is always friendly, and Sarah the owner is the icing on the cake. She is literally the most generous person I’ve ever met and if at any time you need support or anything she’s always there to help! I highly recommend this gym to everyone, first time gym goers, experienced, young and old, this place is for everyone!

Bryce Rogers Published on Google 5 years ago

Positive experience: Old school gym, cheaper and has most standard equipment. Only major complaint does not have any bumper plates/drop weights so no Olympic lifting at this gym. Would rate 3.5 stars but not an option on Google.
