Gym has an awesome set-up that really caters to different training styles. I used open gym and appreciated being able to move seamlessly between the CrossFit area and the weightlifting side, which each have well-maintained equipment and plenty of space to work out without feeling crowded. The layout makes it easy to switch up your routine and keeps the energy fresh throughout the session.

The owners are very friendly - they made me feel welcome right away and checked in during my workout to see if I needed anything or had questions. Their approach creates a relaxed but motivating atmosphere that makes coming to Core Fitness enjoyable. If ever in the area again, I’ll be coming back without hesitation.

Fantastic gym! All of the essential equipment, plenty of room and CrossFit! Expert and certified trainers, realistic and honest nutritional advice from a certified nutritionist, friendly low-key vibe that is not intimidating and highly encouraging. This is a place where you can turn your life around and get back on a healthy path. Highly recommend this gym!

Core Fitness in Myrtle Beach, SC is an awesome gym(organized & clean). Donnie McDaniel, trainer and owner of Core Fitness has a tremendous amount of positive energy and knowledge. As a previous amateur athlete who engaged in martial arts, ice, hockey, bodybuilding, and football my body has several injuries, which are chronic. Donny knows just the right exercises to train tough without aggravating those injuries. I highly recommend Core Fitness and Myrtle Beach to Bring your fitness and wellness to the next level

Great place to get fit and enjoy working out. Family environment and people who treat you like family but it also has everything for the hardcore gym person. Only draw back I would say, is the limited hours on weekends but not a big deal if you plan for it. Plus it’s hard to staff a place with great people all the time.

Had a week's worth of a trial pass and I love this facility. Less than 10 people when I go...I'm not giving away the time frame LOL. Unfortunately, they do not accept monthly cash payments. I will not provide credit info for something that I can pay monthly in cash. Credit is used for larger purchases. 3 stars because of this. Sorry, will not return and will find a facility that accepts cash payments.

I'm a recovering cardiac patient, recently moved here this past summer, looking for a good fitness center. Core Fitness checks all the blocks! Easily accessible first rate facility, reasonable price, and a variety of programs for all fitness levels and interests from Crossfit, to Pilates, to Spin, to Weight Training, to Yoga and everything in between.

Of course, the people are what really make it work. Judy leads a great team of engaging and knowledgeable instructors & staff who take a genuine interest in the wellbeing and success of their members. If you prefer to workout on your own, they have everything you need. As for me, it's hard not to love Sarah's group training classes, and Carly has been a great personal trainer! They are challenging without being judgemental, and I find myself working at levels now that I simply couldn't when I first joined - and I continue to improve! If you're looking for a home to satisfy your fitness needs, I would highly recommend Core Fitness!

I became a member in October of 2018 and in December 2018 I was charge a $25 dollar yearly maintenance fee (that i was ok with) ,I went to cancel because of relocating in October 2019 and they told me that I had to pay November’s membership (I said ok), and now we are in December And they charge me another $25 year maintenance fee. When I’m not even a member of the gym. And the girl on the phone just told me “we’ll technically you are a member for 17 More days so we charge you the maintenance fee for the whole year”.

Came from up North and was nervous about finding a gym comparable to the one I came from. I tried a few other gyms in the area (Crabtree, X-Gym). However Core was everything I was looking for. There is a variety of classes from Spin, to Barre. The instructors are very accommodating of new members, helping to explain classes and get equipment for you. All skill levels are present in classes, which provides a comfortable environment. Aside from the great classes, there is equipment if you choose to workout on your own, and the facility is clean and modern. Would definitely recommend.

I love this place, the staff and the members!!!! #fitfamily There are SO many different kinds of classes you can take for LESS than 1 type somewhere else. People are encouraging, the staff is energized and the gym is clean. They are always upgrading! In the 2 years there, I've seen new spin bikes, new treadmills, new floor in the group exercise room, new Dumbbells, Kettlebells and slam balls, repainted walls and all the "little stuff" no one notices like jump ropes, resistance bands, stretching bands, etc. Not to mention TOWELS! I chose a Hometown gym that knows my name over a chain gym any day!!!!

Always clean, always accommodating, always friendly and helpful.
The thing I like the most about this gym, and I have belonged to several, is that they never cancel classes. If you plan on attending a class, you can be assured someone is there to teach.
Had to put my my membership on hold for a year, no problem.

HANDS DOWN BEST GYM IN MYRTLE BEACH! I drive 36 miles round trip, 6 day days a week to come to this gym. I pass at least 15 other gyms on the way. Judy and her staff will help you achieve all your fitness goals! I signed up for personal training with joey. she is amazing! She pushes me when I would of gave up on myself. I used to waste my time at planet fitness and never saw any results. Since working out here my core is stronger and my back problems have greatly improved and I feel stronger every day. Thank you for having such a nice gym for the community of Myrtle Beach!😊

Used to love this place.... Sadly i haven’t been able to go to the gym since February so i put my membership on hold for 3 months by filling out the proper paperwork then regrettably had to cancel altogether, so i called and asked the person who answered the phone to go
ahead and cancel for me and either it was never passed along or it was ignored. (I was never told i needed to come back in to fill out new paperwork) thus i was charged the increased monthly membership fee this month (which i was not aware of) and when I called to remind them i canceled in APRIL i was simply told “sorry nothing can be done as we weren’t properly notified”. Nice customer service! Won’t go back

I would give zero stars if possible. Worst experience I have ever had with any business. Had a membership for several months, and my life blew up. The account they drafted for my payment got hacked, I fractured two ribs, my wife was in the hospital, I changed jobs and had a baby. I requested to postpone or cancel my membership after the first time my auto draft didn't go through in August. I havent visited the gym since June when i fractured my ribs. The gym requires you to use a key fob to check in which i would think they qould use to see I havent used my membership since June. After 2 more months failed to draft and I received a phone call to correct the account or cancel my membership and I stated I wanted to cancel, I was told I had to come by in the next 2 days which was impossible for me (new born baby, and working 70 hours a week). I then received a text message that I will be sent to collections if I don't pay in the next 5 days. All of that said every policy was fair and understandable except coming in to cancel my membership. I have never had to make a special visit anywhere to cancel anything. I made a visit to pay the past due amounts and left with a hurtful experience. The gym was great, I loved it but if this is how customers are treated I am dissaapointed. I hope the best for Core fitness in the future but as a customer I hope this policy will be changed. I love to support local businesses because of the way they usually treat customers like family. I can say my experience at Core fitness was one of the worst small business experiences I have ever had. I certainly didn't feel like they care for my business at all. I hope this review helps you treat customers better moving forward.

I will admit I was a poor customer and take full responsibility for letting my account go past due. My hope is that we could have worked out a better solution than how it played out. I hope the best for your business moving forward.

Core Fitness is an amazing facility! The staff at the gym go out of their way to help you if you need it. The equipment is new, and the gym as a whole stays ahead of the fitness trends. There is a free weight section that has 4 Lifetime squat racks, as well as multiple benches. The rack of dumbbells goes all the way up to 100 lbs. The individual plates go up to 45 lbs. The circuit machines are LifeFitness. They also have 2 Synergy machines. The gym is equipped with 3 rows of cardio equipment. Treadmills, ellipticals, cycles, spin cycles, rowers, and assault bikes are all available to use.

Core Fitness also offers a vast variety of group exercise classes. Spin classes, full throttle, kickboxing, TRX, CRR, step, hip hop, barre classes, yoga, 15/15/15, 30/30, burn and build, and 5X5 stations are all INCLUDED with your classic membership! They also offer additional small group classes that can be purchased additional to your membership. Boot camp classes, arial fitness, and Pilates classes are all offered at Core Fitness.

The personal trainers at Core are great. They take the time to get to know what your individual goals are, and they create a personalized fitness plan for your specific goals. They always go the extra mile to ensure you have proper form, and they are always on hand to lend extra motivation if you are struggling.

You can also become a CrossFit UpDog member, and join the Dog Pound. CrossFit offers multiple workouts all day, every day. The workouts change daily, and they will push you in ways you did not know your body could be pushed. Every move is completely modifiable, and can be done in a way that you will ensure success.

That is the best thing I can say about Core Fitness. Every person here, from the owners, to the staff, to the other members, they all want you to succeed, and push yourself in ways you never thought you could.

Gym area is divided between a crossfit side and a general gym area. Crossfit side is very open, regular gym area is a bit cramped. As a out of towner I came here last year and crossfit side was available for use. Today it was completely empty but they have a new fence around it. I was told we weren't allowed to use crossfit area. I typically do barbell work, they have better barbells in that area....

So they've taken half the gym away from recreational use compared to last year however the price is still the same $15 per day for out of towners. Should've dropped the price or given out of towners option to upgrade daily membership for a couple bucks.

Will not be returning. The only reason I came today was to utilize the rigs, open space, and the again faster barbells
