Parkwest Fitness is a wonderful facility. The staff and instructors are competent and very friendly. The equipment is varied, modern and well maintained. Very clean as well. All ages and fitness levels are welcomed. If you haven’t been give it a try.

In addition to my review above, There were several days I noticed the owner himself cleaning windows, performing maintenance on the equipment and performing other tasks to improve the experience. I truly respect someone who feels no job is beneath them. My wife and I really enjoy this facility.

I’ve been coming here on and off for 7 years. I like the classes and instructors but the temperature in the upstairs fitness room is always hot and uncomfortable. I can’t deal with the heat so I only go on cooler days. This has been an ongoing issue for years. The owners don’t care and refuse to address it.

A great gym for experienced lifters and new lifters alike. It has more traditional lifting gym vibes than other commercial gyms. The equipment isn’t sparkly and new, but it’s functional and there is a wide array. The pricing is reasonable for the amenities and quality. I’ve been using this gym on a recovery journey from a near fatal car accident and it’s been indispensable; it’s never too busy and I seldom have to wait for a machine. If you want old school gym vibes with modern amenities, this is it for ya

Your staff is super polite and welcoming. I enjoyed my 10+ months of being here and working with your FIT lab team. I like the facilities a lot. General notes for improvement as of March 2023, I think the leg press machine needs fixing (it creaks a lot). Also, I don't think much people use the glute machine next to it, it would be awesome if you swapped this out for a hip thrust machine since there's only one smith machine and limited space for this exercise set up.

On the moderately dilapidated side. Broken window, loose carpet tile, kinda dirty creaky equipment, and low lighting. Not especially affordable or easy to find, but it is close to our house. Do they get credit for that or do I?
Staff are generally friendly. The place deserves 3 stars, but since the upstairs carpet tile has been loose for quite some time, I don't think it deserves to be considered average. I'll bump it up to 3 when obvious safety concerns are addressed.

It is a great place but steam room is not on 80% of times. It is the only reason I come here. And, whenever I call to check to ask if steam room is on answer is right away yes, which was not true most of the times. several times wasted my time driving and finding out steam room is actually off. Would be great if you could actually check it and tell the truth.

Thank you to the owners. They really care about the customers and their business. As I said earlier it is a great place, and looks like steam room is up and running again.

Me & my family have been looking for a gym to join. As we been waiting for VASA to reopen child care after waiting months.. I decided to look at other gyms. This past Saturday we visit the Parkwest fitness & it was a waste of time. As we walked in a older lady & 3 boys were just walking in as we were & went behind the desk. The lady asked what did I need & told her we would like to check out the gym. She asked if we been here before I reply no. She told me I need to sign the waiver & rolled her eyes while handing me the pen. Then as we walk into the play area the other kids were calling for the “ babysitter” as she was hiding in the back room on her phone while the kids were in the front area.. she had looked like she rolled out of bed. She put my child teething toy in the mix of the other toys... as we are leaving no one at the desk said anything to us as the older lady & one of the younger boy were fighting about lunch.. oh & we drove an hour to check this gym out. I only rate a one star because it is a nice gym.

I visited Parkwest to check it out and they let me do a trial workout without any fuss. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming and they have a LOT of equipment. 2 floors of equipment. Machines to target every conceivable muscle group. There is a locker room, but you have to bring your own locks. There are lockers with combination locks, but I couldn't find one that was open. There's also an indoor swimming pool that I did not use, but it looked good.

Thanks ParkWest.

I am so thankful for Parkwest fitness! I have been a part of this fantastic gym for a few years and I just love it. I have never liked going to a gym and always preferred working out at home. When I started weight lifting 3 years ago, I knew I had to do in a gym because I didn't have the necessary equipment. I tried about many gyms before settling on Parkwest and I am so glad I did. They have all the things I need for weight training along with great cardio machines and any kind of class you may want. The owners, Steve and Rachel Shook are friendly and accommodating. The rest of the staff are always cheerful and helpful. I love the fact that it just feels warm and homey in there and not sterile like some gyms feel to me. It truly has everything I need and want in a gym!

I had a family membership with the gym for 6 months, a couple weeks ago I decided to freeze my membership, as I will be out of town a lot. I called and was told that I would have to come in and sign the paper. My husband went to the gym, but whoever was that day at the reception desk did not know anything about freezing agreement. So, my husband filled in papers for cancellation and was promised that a manager would get in touch. Nobody called, so I called again. I was told that my membership would be canceled soon. Nothing happened. Getting closer to the date of usual monthly payment my husband called again and the lady on the phone told that they could freeze my account, as she saw somebody did it a day ago. My husband went down again and ,oh surprise, another person at the reception told that we could not do it, he ended up cancelling our family membership. It cost us 150$. Charged immediately that day. No way I am going back to the gym where nobody knows what is going on. I would highly recommend figuring out your options, before you enroll. Complete waste of our time(( calls and useless trips to the gym(( This is outrageous and disrespectful to your clients!

My complain was heard and fixed. So, hopefully, we won't have any more issues. I understand that training new staff can take some time, though, they should be able (even 1st day in) to get in touch with somebody who has the info in order to help clients. Thanks for fixing our situation and good luck with managing your staff.

Looks like that B.S. degree from Purdue University is paying dividends. Kudo's to Parkwest for building such a high quality team & culture.

As a member of the club, I would recommend them to others. Very friendly and helpful staff. The building and grounds are well kept and clean. There are Classes for those who wish to learn new things. There is a decent tanning bed (stand up) available. There is good quality child care avaiable (we have 4 kids). A pool, a hot tub, a sauna and steam room also offer a bit extra. Or if you prefer there is raquetball, volleyball or basketball all indoors so weather doesn't play a factor.

- fix the second water spout in the volleyball court ( Sorry if this has been fixed in the past but broken by the kids who play or by the impact of the heavy basketballs!)
- Extra exhaust/ventilation (natural or otherwise) in swimming pool area to keep the air light :)

I really like the facility, the new owners, and the whole staff. I have been a member 8 of the past 10 yrs. I'm training for my first triathlon and unfortunately I'm being forced to the co rec because of the pool situation. I know expanding the pool area isn't exactly practical or cost efficient but having only 2 lanes for lap swimming, the area becomes so congested that it is of little value to anyone unless they drop in at just the right time. Out of control, unsupervised children also make it a less than enjoyable experience. I know Parkwest goes above and beyond to accommodate all members which is great. I've seen a dramatic increase in membership numbers over the years. In my opinion it would benefit everyone and probably draw new members in if you explored ways to accommodate the heavy traffic and made it possible to get a good workout each visit.

In November 2016, as the weather was getting cold, I wanted to try out their swimming pool for a month only because I have two toddlers who need indoor activities. We ended up using the facility about six times in November because the changing room was not friendly to the toddlers. It was smelly and shower facility was broken (shower head etc). So we stopped going there.

[Edited] Also in the future, I would recommend the management to make sure that their staff is trained to explain the new customers regarding the contract prior to signing up.

Love all of services offered, but I wish they would stay open later. Other owners stayed open till midnight which I'd appreciate considering my night owl lifestyle. If I get angry at night, I'd like to go for a run. There have been a handful of times where I wasn't able to do so! Otherwise, stay could be more friendly by greeting us by name. Wish they would have a smoothie bar or mini massage service available. I'd definitely utilize these services!

Been a member for almost 3 months. I was frequenting Purdues Co-rec before coming here. The membership rates for both Parkwest and the Co-rec are similar. Also, I have only the base membership and have not participated in any fitness classes they offer. From what I've noticed they offer a healthy variety of classes which is nice and something everyone should look into if considering a membership here.

Pros-
Not nearly as crowded as Purdue's Co-rec during peak hours or any hour for that matter.

They have a nice selection of equipment to change your workouts up for most muscle groups.

I swim and hoop a lot and there has never been a cleanliness issue with those areas of the gym which is nice.

Cons-
There doesn't seem to be enough weight plates to necessitate all the free weight stations. Im always on the hunt for 5's and 10's while I'm in the middle of a workout.
There is a similar problem with clips being readily available for barbells.

Pretty sure the basketballs used in the 1986 movie Hoosiers are the same balls they have for members to use. Cool vintage look to them but these balls should have retired with Kobe. Seriously tho, these balls look like they smoke 2 packs a day.

Weight area cleanliness and men's locker room cleanliness has been lacking at times.
Trash overflow in men's bathroom area almost always an issue.

Men's locker room has a certain stink to it. I'm just sayin, I'd rather smell the cool scent of bleach and ammonia than Toby's jock strap 6 lockers down.

Last thing, dress code...I'm all for flexin the goodies during a workout but some of these guys come in dressed like they are auditioning for a role in Magic Mike 3. "You're too fleshy bro, put a shirt on!"...is what I would like to say to them, but they are huge and could crush me. I maneuver so quickly though, that they would never catch me... Imagine Mario Kart, for N64 not this future stuff, and I'm Toad surrounded by a bunch of Bowsers. I'm too fast off the line Big Fella! I only race with princess though, for the record...

So yea, that's my 2 cents...some "cons" I've listed can be changed over night and some with a bit more time, effort and money.
All in all a decent gym, but with Purdue's CoRec down the road and with similar membership fees and more to offer in a basic membership...might be a better option.

When my membership is up I'll probably re-up with Parkwest. Reasons being convenience of location, less crowded than Purdue's Co-rec, and I hate change.

Thanks for reading!

It would be great if the pool classes were earlier during the day (like between 8 and 3 pm), since many families with school-aged kids would rather use the pool in the late afternoon and early evening. Unfortunately, that is the exact time when adult classes take place. It seems like these classes take up lots of this time throughout the week and the pool is unavailable. Moreover, the pool water temperature tends to be pretty cool.

We went there mainly for kids to play/swim there especially in winter but usually we only have time after dinner. The swimming pool is not available all nights recently because there are always training lessons in the swimming pool. There is a policy that other people at that time could not use the pool. We would not go there if kid could not swim.

Pros-
The hours are pretty good, and they always open when you expect them to.
The pool is clean and well maintained.]
Staff are very friendly.
Ownership seems great and very invested in the gym.

Cons-
There doesn't seem to be any kind of dress code. I've twice seen people working out without shirts on recently which seems unnecessary and unsanitary.
Crossfit workouts are big here so you'll get one person feeling compelled to take up 3 or 4 things at once at peak hours while they flail around uncontrollably.
Theres several people who come in to train individuals while not actually being employed at this gym. So you end up dealing with sessions occurring around you from someone who doesn't have the proper background and who will try and sell their services to current gym members.
