In town for work and the owner got me access quickly at a very fair price. Gym was very clean and equipment was so much better than a crumby chain gym.

This gym has character. Travel for work and aspiring bodybuilder so my gym is #1 to me. I called Nick after hours. He got me a code and got me in when no one else could. All the equipment a gym goer needs without the fluff. I found home while I'm here

Awesome spot. Is what you want for a gritty lift session. Lot of character. Lot of equipment. Wish I could give it more than 5 stars.

King City Strength and Performance is a clean and well maintained, locally owned gym with great equipment and great people! We were skeptical to switch, but it was totally worth it. You can tell how much respect the owners have for their gym and patrons, and that respect is reflected by the people who go there. Easily the best locally owned gym in town!

Being going here consistently for about a year and a half and can say it is easily the best gym around the area 100%! The equipment, people, feel, all are top notch and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to start your fitness journey or if you’re already pretty advanced.

4.5 star great no-frills locally-owned gym. Super easy sign-up and registration. Very affordable with the added bonus of supporting a local small business. Not a lot of space between equipment in one of the rooms, or lockerrooms but not a huge deal at all (there's large bathrooms to change in and separate lockers to use). There's even a little space for kiddos. Worth checking out!

Best gym in the 618. Highly equipped. Great for powerlifting, bodybuilding, and they have plenty of cardio equipment as well. The atmosphere is the best part about this gym.

This is hands down the best gym in town. When I was competing in power lifting I trained out of this gym. I've set several states records and World Records for the SPF while using the equipment at King City. The staff is super friendly and the members are great. It doesn't matter if you are just starting your fitness journey or if you hold Records this is the gym for you.

I was in town for work, and I paid for a 2 day pass with King City. Perfect gym that exceeded my expectations. Absolutely everything you need to get a great workout whether its powerlifting, crossfit, etc... Some of the equipment/weights are old, but it is all in good shape. I can only think of a few things that could be added - a fat pad bench - but the overall atmosphere, quality of the gym, and equipment available is great.
