Im from out of town visiting family but I wish this gym was closer to me as it is one of the best gyms I've been to. I can confidently say this is the best gym in lakeland. Friendly staff, a good variety of clean and cool machines, and nice members make this a great gym and I am glad I came here.

I wish I lived in Lakeland since I have had the best experience at this gym. I have visited several times and consistently found a great variety of equipment and friendly staff. I am not the most fit person, and I go to Southside Barbell with my son who is much more experienced with working out. This gym is welcoming and has lots of options for both of our workouts. I can honestly say this is my favorite gym to go to!

Started training in the gym at 14 years old. I’ve gone too pretty much every minor or major gym in Lakeland, and the Polk County area. i’m in my 50s now, and been a member of Southside for over 10 years. This place is the best gym in Lakeland! It’s never crowded, All the members are really cool and easy to get along with. And everyone that works there is always more happy to help, give advice, and makes it a point to say hi to me when I’m in. They remember your name. And it seems like they are generally glad that you’re there. You’re not just a number. If you haven’t gone, you need to check it out!

Been a member with southside for almost 3 years now. Couldn’t be happier with our experience here. From the staff, to the members, it’s truly an excellent gym experience, and far superior to the large gyms in the area. Highly recommend!

Southside Barbell has been my gym for more than 7 years. Over those 7 years I have gotten stronger and made healthier lifestyle choices. It was exactly what I needed then and need now.

Been a member for a couple years now. Used to go to crunch and switched over. It was 100% worth the switch. I love the 24 hour access and the privacy of the gym.

I’ve been going to Southside off and on for the past three years or so and I’ve always come back to it. It’s an amazing gym, perfect for people who need a TRUE 24 hour gym, and the recent move/expansion has been a great experience as well.

I’ve been going to this gym for the past 4 years, and I watched the community grow to what it is now. If you want an amazing gym environment I would definitely recommend going here. The owners, and the workers here are great if you want to be able to sign up easily. The gym definitely beats all gyms in Lakeland if you want a good workout, and a good 24/7 atmosphere.

Night shiftian here. I usually go around 12am so this is probably only a night shift problem, But the lights timing out and having to run to the other side of the gym in the dark has been fun. Also would love a spin bike downstairs since we don’t have access to upstairs during the night. Other than that I’m pretty happy here.

Solid gym- not crazy packed. wish it had wipes so that people could clean off equipment after using it. They have a rag with a spray bottles but everyone uses the same rag all day so it’s not very “clean”.

SB has just about all of the equipment you need to get results, they're open 24 hours a day, and best of all you are not being accosted by sales-driven staff members and trainers like you are at big box gyms in the area; no annoying texts trying to get you to sign up for personal training.

That said, they have a PLETHORA of certified personal trainers that work out of the gym if you're interested in working one-on-one (or a small group) with a fitness professional.

Love this gym! I’ve been working out here since 2017, both on my own and with trainers. Mark and his team do an amazing job of challenging you, but also caring about your progress. The atmosphere is great, people are nice and friendly and there’s a variety equipment for all needs. Shout out to the small group trainers- Devin, Ashlie, Danielle, and Eric!!

What a great experience I've had !! With easy payment options & great equipment I was hooked. They offer many amazing classes & one on ones with some really awesome trainers. Shout out to Devin Jackson for being patient with this 40+ yr old guy. Leanne, Brie, Mark, or Danielle always have a smile or words of encouragement. I feel like its more than just a gym !!

Good sized gym. 24hr access for members is huge for schedules that can't go during traditional day time hours. Equipment is well maintained and there is enough equipment to accommodate a variety of workouts. The small turf areas are great to perform exercises at a safe distance from others.

The small gear that is on the shelves like mats and pull-up assistance bands are in good condition and there is enough to go around. I love this gym and have gotten friends to sign on as well. Very clean establishment and equipment is well maintained. Plenty of sanitize stations with a strong spray and rag for quick and powerful wipedowns.

Only issue I have is the bench in the back is not friendly to those with shorter length arms like myself.

I joined Southside Barbell in July after seeing an ad for their 8 week Summer Challenge. I was looking for more than the big box gym experience- I really wanted a personal, family atmosphere. Southside most definitely delivered!

Every trainer there is friendly, knowledgeable and professional. The gym is always clean and the atmosphere is warm. I'm usually uncomfortable and intimidated in gyms, so I really appreciate the small group training options. I've been taking Devin and Ashlie's HIIT classes for the last few months, and I love them! I look forward to getting up early and seeing what they have in store each time. I am seeing consistent results, and feeling stronger and more capable every week.

What stands out for me above everything is the personalized coaching and encouragement I've received from Ashlie. She was assigned as my accountability coach for the challenge, and she has gone above and beyond my expectations. Ashlie is one of those coaches who immediately makes you feel comfortable, but pushes you out of your comfort zone. She is positive, helpful and upbeat. She keeps a close eye on form, and offers scaling and substitutions as needed. The bottom line, is that she genuinely cares. I'm so grateful for her guidance in my fitness journey, and I look forward to continuing with Southside Barbell for years to come!!

Great staff! That's what "makes" this gym. Caring people with your goals as their goals. These are the people who will get you there. Best of all they cater to their customers- adding classes to fit the majority needs & wants. I've never seen that happen it the big gyms.

In town for one week. Found TBC North. The gym is fine and it would be a 3, but then there's Will! Will Doyle is the trainer there. Worked out one day at same time he worked out. Wow! He kicks butt - his own butt. Invited me to bootcamp - WELL worth the money. If I had Will at my gym, I'd be doing bootcamp. Great guy. No BS. Just do it. You won't be sorry.
