I signed up for the Premium membership and am so pleased! The phrase "you get what you pay for" definitely applies here. Hired Douglass Lawder, the owner, to train me for a couple months for an athletic event. What a difference this makes. His knowledge of what and how much to do for specific sports training is really amazing. Want the secret: Training + Vitality Lab + the Infusion Lab has set my body back 10 years! Couldn't say enough good things about the facility, people, equipment, and techniques used here. Their web site and App are first rate and Sabah, Douglas' partner at Railyard Fitness, is the magician behind the scenes.

In town for a few days and RR Fitness sells a day pass - pictures looked good so it was a no brainer. Reality was even better - its a lovely space with tons of light, very clean and new feeling. All the equipment you need for whatever type of workout you do - an impressive amount of space and the layout is well thought out. I kind of wish it was my regular gym! Thanks I loved it.

Beautiful gym and great staff! I've been working out at this gym for several years. The owners (Sabah and Doug) have made substantial improvements over the years including the addition of wellness services and equipment. The gym is spacious, has updated equipment and is very clean. It's challenging to work out in other gyms while traveling as nothing compares to Railyard Fitness! You get quite a bit for what you pay for at this gym.

Railyard Fitness is an amazing gym, especially for those like me who don't consider themselves "gym people." I'm aware how important it is to retain and grow muscle mass and cardiovascular fitness as I get older. Railyard has turned out to be the perfect place for me. As other reviewers have said, it's spacious, spotless, uncrowded and includes a huge variety of equipment. The recovery lab, with its infrared saunas and cold plunge, is an added bonus. Owners Douglas and Sabah are welcoming, gracious and knowledgeable.

I am ULTRA picky about gyms but this one checks all the boxes:
great location, plenty of parking, never busy, nicely designed, always clean, friendly and knowledgeable staff, great trainers, new equipment, every training aid imaginable, and plenty of amenities. Plus, the members are a pleasant, laid back group. What's not to love?

I moved back to Santa Fe in mid 2023 and desperately needed a gym. I was so happy once I found Railyard fitness because it offers so much that I was looking for. A great space to work out but also a community that focuses on recovery. The gym is spaced out and offers a limited number of memberships, so youโ€™re never overwhelmed by all the people or unable to use a specific machine. On top of that, the owners, Douglass and Sabah, are incredibly warm and fun people. They also offer the recovery lab with infrared saunas, cold plunge, red light therapy, compression therapy and theraguns. I highly recommend even going post skiing, or hiking to use the lab. If youโ€™re looking for a gym that you wonโ€™t dread going to, Railyard fitness is it!

After visiting and accessing the gyms in Santa Fe, Railyard Fitness was perfect for me. Clean, efficient, great equipment but best are the roll-up doors that allow Spring, Summer and Fall breezes to sweep through the gym and make the environment feel fresh as the outdoors! Excellent trainers and careful health/strength/wellness approach using new methods are a welcome addition to training at Railyard Fitness. I love it!

Railyard Fitness is an outstanding training facility. It has a wide variety of equipment and the space is very nice with plenty of room. The ambiance is pleasant, especially when the weather is good and the large doors are open letting in fresh air and sunshine. While the facility is excellent, the real benefit is the people that work there. I train with Douglass who provides a varied workout that has greatly improved my fitness and health. If you are looking for a place to upgrade your overall well-being, Railyard is the place.

Rejoining Railyard Fitness after my time away was an easy decision. Since joining in 2022 during Covid, I've appreciated their focus on member safety and the motivating personal training sessions. RYF excels in cleanliness, privacy, and providing a well-equipped space. Their gym layout promotes focused workouts with plenty of personal space, and they regularly upgrade equipment to offer the latest technology. Despite exploring other gyms, none offered the exceptional experience of RYF. Though it's pricier, the quality makes it worth the investment.

After looking at all of the alternatives in Santa Fe, I joined Railyard Fitness in January. My experience has been terrific. Sabah and Douglas are engaged and present owners, the trainers are professional, friendly, and highly proficient. I have been working with Chase, who has helped me accomplish better-than-expected results while managing to keep the workouts both fun and interesting. The facilities are top-notch and always clean and well-maintained. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for a great place to achieve their fitness goals.

Railyard Fitness is THE BEST GYM have ever worked out at. It has all the equipment (kept 100% clean and in working order) that I need and more to keep me motivated and interested. The space itself is beautiful. The big garage door/windows open in the spring and it is a joy to be there. My trainer, Douglass - also the owner - knows exactly what I need to do 3x/week to meet my goals. He is smart, attentive, skillful and we have a lot of laughs, too. I have never looked forward to working out before but I really enjoy my time at Railyard Fitness and the results I get. Oh! There are also saunas and a cold plunge! You can take care of yourself in so many ways at this gym - a gem for all us lucky of Santa Feans.

This gym is absolutely gorgeous, with natural light and all equipment imaginable! It's been a wonderful find during my recent visit to Santa Fe. I highly recommend a visit here, whether you're local or in town for just a few days. I've had a few training sessions with the trainers and they have been inspiring! Also check out the vitality lab and if you're adventurous enough, take a cold plunge! 10 out of 10!

My husband and I stayed in Santa Fe for 5 weeks and joined Railyard Fitness. They have a special membership with no commitment for travelers and I cannot recommend this gym highly enough.

The gym itself is clean, modern, bright and has a great energy. It features top of the line equipment and includes everything that you can possibly think of (rowers, ellipticals, treadmills, stair stepper, TRX bands, etc.). On top of the gym equipment, the membership includes access to red light therapy & Normatec compression for full body. For an additional cost, you can enjoy the sauna and cold plunge located in a separate locked room.

The owner, Douglas, is so kind and welcoming. The other trainers are the same. If you have the opportunity, purchasing a training session(s) with any of them would be a great investment. You could tell each of their clients truly enjoyed them and they were consistently busy.
With that, even with 3-4 trainers seeing clients, there was plenty of room for other members to workout. The gym itself has three separate workout areas and plenty of machines / equipment to be shared.

If we lived in Santa Fe this would be the gym that I would join without question. We miss the gym every day!
Thanks for an amazing experience!

I really like the gym. Itโ€™s close to home and the equipment is great.
I would not have offered it up, but because you are asking for feedback,,,,
The gym is expensive for what it offers.
Secondly, I needed a shower while there and it had no hot water and the shower head fell off in use. When I reported it, I was made to feel incompetent, like there really was no problem with it.
I would not go back there unless they offered a substantial price decrease.

Highly recommended! Railyard Fitness is a gym, but feels like an oasis in the high desert of Santa Fe. If I were to combine the best qualities of all of my gym experiences, I would end up with Railyard Fitness!

Great location with lots of parking. The gym has nice natural light and a calm vibe that I believe helped me to focus on my workouts.

Railyard Fitness is not just a place with solid gym equipment. It's people like Douglass and the fitness trainers that make this place come alive. With their experience, understanding and dedication to helping you reach your goals it's no wonder Railyard Fitness has won Best of Santa Fe recognition.

Absolutely the best gym experience and highly recommended!

Doug is the rare personal trainer who combines deep physical expertise with deft emotional intelligence to provide each trainee with a custom workout that is effective and efficient. The Railyard Fitness gym is a grand space with gorgeous light and plenty of top equipment. I have had personal trainers for the last 15 years (post a back issue!), and can easily say -- and do often say -- that Doug is the best in the business. Highly recommended!

Great gym with lots of different exercise options! They offer personal training, group classes, as well as regular gym memberships; they are capping their membership in order to keep things covid safe as the season gets colder and they aren't able to keep the large garage doors open to keep it nearly open-air, so if you want to sign up I'd do it soon! They have classes every day, and you don't need a membership in order to attend them, though you do need to sign up online. I highly recommend looking into personal training as the trainers are all very knowledgeable and friendly and will do their best to help you reach your goals!

I attribute my healing, in large part, to Railyard Fitness. It is such a special, inspiring and nourishing place. I honestly wake up excited to go the gym.

I have been an athlete much of my life, though never much of a gym-goer; they often feel too industrial and machismo to me. These years, the mountains are where I feel most nourished. However, after having my daughter and becoming quite ill, I had to halt much of my rigorous activity and limit my sun exposure. Though motherhood has been the deepest joy for me, I have often neglected my own health and wellness. Navigating single motherhood, school, work and so on, took over my days. I no longer felt strong or vibrant.

When I decided to join Railyard Fitness, I didn't expect much. I figured maybe I would exercise a couple of times/week for a month and then abandon it and return to my home exercises instead. I figured I could at least check that box off as something I "tried". However, this wasn't the case at all. This has been one of the best decisions I have made for myself, and consequently for my daughter. I feel GREAT!

I haven't taken any of the classes yet, mainly due to my tight schedule but I have utilized the gym well, from the weights to the cardio equipment, to the stretching area and even the rings. Every room is so light filled and welcoming. Instead of the stuffy/stagnant air that I often dislike in gyms, Railyard Fitness has huge windows and glass doors, often open to the beautiful high desert air and endless blue sky.

The staff and trainers are so warm and friendly. I feel encouraged and motivated by their kind words and also their commitment to their own health and well-being. All and all, I feel inspired. More than that (and I do not say this lightly), I feel HAPPY, STRONG and EMBODIED; it shows in my work, my motherhood and my body/spirit/mind.

If I had before and after photos, they would certainly show more muscle mass and a leaner body, but more than that, they would show a joy and strength that goes beyond any "gains".

Thank you, Railyard Fitness, for helping me wake up to my own healing and wellness. This is the beginning of a long journey yet.

I'm a middle aged man who was 35 lbs overweight, freshly divorced, and then down and out for 12 weeks with a broken foot. I did some physical therapy and then began training here with Douglass, the owner. Three months later and I'm now fitter than I have been in years! I feel like I've risen from the dead. Douglass assists with everything from diet and lifestyle to training in the gym. I've had a few personal trainers over the years and none have been this inspiring and knowledgeable. The fitness center is clean and modern. I love this place! Thank you Douglass.
