Workout Anytime in Bearden reminds me of the setting in a novel, if Orwell had written Planet Fitness, this would be the setting. The gym is small, outdated, and has the machine variety of a middle-school P.E. closet. But the true experience begins at the front desk, where the attendant runs the place with the ruthless efficiency of the Gestapo. She watches every rep, every drop of sweat, and every entry in the sign-in book like it’s a classified document. Forget to scan your card once, and you’ll feel the icy stare of gym justice from across the room.

It’s less a fitness center and more a social experiment in obedience and paranoia. Great place if your workout goal is anxiety.

April has the best gym and atmosphere I’ve been to in the past decade. I drive almost an hour to see her for personal training and she gives me the tools I need to be successful when training on my own. April is the best personal trainer I’ve had and I know others could benefit from her knowledge and kindness! She provides an environment for anyone, gay or straight, young or old, man or woman. Thank you for being amazing, April!

This is an amazing gym! Everyone at the front desk is so friendly. There is a range of ages, sizes and abilities from the members so it’s not an intimidating place to work out. April, my trainer (and the owner) is so incredibly knowledgeable about all things health and fitness. She has helped me more than I can say on my fitness journey! I would recommend this gym to anyone looking to make a positive change in their routine!

INCOMPETENT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND ATTENDANCE
It was an alright experience in the gym. 3 star at best. The equipment is kept in moderate condition, though most times when i would go to work out after work, 12AM, it would be disorganized, and the bathroom would be filthy.
The real issue, though, is with their sign-up/cancelation and company.
I was stationed in Knoxville briefly and needed a gym, so i signed up here. The issue: when i was scheduled to leave Knox, i told them to cancel my membership, and they didn't.
After moving, I received one email after another about a memebership i had canceled; I returned this information and more about my cancelation; but they still kept charging. Now i have a collection agency preparing to screw my score because of this companies incompetence

⭐⭐⭐

I frequent the Workout Anytime Knoxville/Bearden location when I'm in town, but overall, I would rate it three out of five stars. The gym itself has a smaller footprint compared to other locations, which can make it feel a bit cramped during busier hours. More concerning, though, is the temperature and air quality inside. The owners seem more interested in cutting costs than prioritizing customer comfort — keeping the gym temperature at 75ºF or higher with high humidity, and relying on small, waist-high fans for airflow. This is noticeably different from other Workout Anytime locations, where temperatures are typically kept around 69ºF with lower humidity to create a more comfortable environment for workouts. While the convenience of this location is hard to beat, I’ll likely explore the other Knoxville location, even though it’s a 30-minute drive, to find a better workout environment with more space and a more customer-focused atmosphere.

EDIT***I know Kurt will comment here saying I initialed something. Kurt is vindictive and even though you didn't use his filthy gym for the entire year plus he was billing you, he still charged you and sent you to collections 😂***

I had a membership here years ago. I moved away from the gym so I stopped going. Right after the debit card attached to my auto pay expired so I thought it was a clean break. There is no contract here like at some bigger gyms. You can simply end it at any time.

So the gym kept :billing me 25 dollars a month until I had a passed due balance of over $400 😂😂😂. Even though I hadn't stepped foot in a workout anytime. Kurt the owner sent this to collections I guess to get vengeance on someone no longer using his dirty gym.

Several years later I sign up at workout anytime Seymour which has been great! A few years later I stopped into the bearden location for a workout. It was okay. The gym was dirtier and the equipment seemed a little worn compared to the seymour location. Later that day the owner Kurt called me to tell me I couldn't workout there until I paid the 400 plus dollars back that I was continuing to be billed for even though i moved away and wasn't using his nasty gym. Let me remind you that this was a month to month contract and my current membership allows me to use any workout anytimes.

I know that Kurt the owner has a reputation for giving other WOA location members grief if they use his gym. Long story short. There are a ton gyms that don't have jerks running the place. Go somewhere else

Nice clean simple gym with pleasant staff. Only thing I don't like is the music in the gym lacks variety, always the same songs, always techno funk with same redundant beat and unclear lyrics.

2 months later the music is still the same. I hear the exact same songs every visit, same techno funk . My visits would be more enjoyable if there was variety of genres and songs that had intelligible lyrics.

Still anticipating the music improvement. Meanwhile, my ears will be vexed with the same computer generated repetitive beat that is in virtually ever song with mushy weird unintelligible lyrics - o well, guess I'll invest in sound occluding headphones and stop hoping in the promised music improvement at the gym.

The gym overall is great—good atmosphere, and most of the staff are friendly. However, I had a bad experience with a staff member named Debbie (who I believe usually works Saturdays). She profiled me, was passive-aggressive, unprofessional, and not upfront about why I was the only member in the gym she asked for extra information. She claimed it was due to a machine error, but that clearly wasn’t the case as other members entered and exited with no problem. It was disappointing and not what I expect from a place I otherwise enjoy.

Additionally, I received a follow-up email regarding the incident, which further confirmed my feelings about the situation with Debbie. I am disappointed by the response.

I've worked out at 3 of these and this by far was the most disappointing! 1 curlbar in the whole gym and very few back and arm accessories for cable machines! Very unorganized with the benches near the dumbbells! I'm not a karen at all, but for this location in knoxville we're it's very wealthy it's very poor ran! Should be the nicest one with how much money is in that area! Come to norris, powell areas and it's the nicest and most packed I've seen. This workout anytime had 3 to 7 people in at all times. That told me alot. Just want to encourage this owner it could be better!

Cleanliness is definitely not the first priority of this place. All equipments are dirty. You can see the black stain on the weight pins on all machines. the floor shows how disgusting it is. Bathroom never has hand soap refilled ever.

The air inside the facility is extremely muggy. It's not circulate at all. If you move too much, you will feel like you can't breathe pretty easy.

I recently moved to this area and this gym is the closer to my house. Otherwise, I would not go back to this place ever again. I still haven't cancelled my old gym membership because I feel so much better driving 2x further to that one. I can breathe, everything is cleaner, not crowded when there are more than 2 people in the gym, and have more equipments.

2 stars are for how nice the staffs are and the location. The rest are not good enough to be a gym in Bearden. It doesn't need to be spacious or nice for this price range, but be clean and circulate the air should be the bare minimum.

Out of all the workout anytime locations this one is the worst. We will purposefully drive to further locations to avoid this one. My boyfriend always complains about how gross the bathrooms are. I think they have 1 bike that works and it’s so uncomfortable because the other one is always broken. This location has bare minimum equipment compared to the other locations, too! If you are the owner of this location, please please please update this one! And if you are a customer, just know there are way better locations besides this one.

I truly just wish this place was bigger. The Powell location is decent size but this place feels packed with just 10 people inside. I guess with everyone moving here it’s always packed. But I would love to have more locations. This is right around the corner from my house but I’ll drive 20 minutes out just to get more room to breathe.
Reply: as I mentioned I go to the Powell location because yours is so small. I have been a member for over a year and it’s always been this way which is why I stopped going. Has nothing to do with it being January. I’ll be reaching out to cancel. Thank you.

Beware. This business continued to bill me for an already cancelled membership over the course of five years and I was only notified when it showed up on my credit report as an account they sent to collections. Exercise caution if considering this establishment for your gym. If you’re considering a membership here please be aware that it could legitimately affect your credit score.

EDIT AGAIN in response to business reply: I never received any communication from this location or from any collections agency. I contacted the Bearden location already and was unable to be helped. This was an account that was cancelled over five years ago. Please revise your billing/collections practices as it seems to be your biggest pain point when looking over your reviews. I will absolutely never consider using any Workout Anytime location ever again based on these experiences. Sending an account to collections 5 years after refusing to cancel a membership, not notifying the individual, and then passing the blame on to the "billing company" is shady at best.

I rated this gym at 5 stars a few years ago, and I stand by that rating. I just want to give a follow up because gyms get a bad rep on Google maps.

I was a member at this gym for a couple of years, and when I wanted to cancel, I followed the rules, as stated in my original agreement, and had no problem cancelling my membership.

I restarted going to this gym in September of 2023. It hasn't changed, and I'm fine with that. The only thing different since I was there a few years ago is that the cardio theatre no longer has you running after a man in different trails and such around the world. You now can use the cardio theatre while watching funny videos on chive.tv.

I feel safe at this gym. I love how many different age ranges and athletic abilities work out here. I'm not gawked at, feel uncomfortable, or anything else here. The security equipment seems to work, I can use my key to get in the gym after manned hours, and the people that man the front desk are really helpful. The equipment is far enough apart here, the bathrooms are clean (well, the women's is, idk about the men's locker room), everything is clean, and the towels and spray cleaners are always filled.

I would now like to tell you about the downsides. Would I prefer wipes? Personally, yes, but it isn't my decision. Would I prefer to not have the hydro massage in the middle of everything where everyone is watching me? Yes. Would I prefer if the time limit on the hydro massage was at least 15 minutes like it is at every other workout anytime that I have ever gone to? Yes. (To be fair, I've only been to 5 or 6 other workout anytime gyms, but all of them had longer time limits on the hydromassage and it was in a separate room.) Would I prefer if the wifi actually let you do something like it used to years ago? Yes. Have I brought it up with the people that man the front desk? Yes. It's also been a problem for them for years. You can't watch YouTube videos, open a website on chrome or other internet browsers, watch Amazon prime, watch a few other video streaming services, listen to any podcasts, or stream any music! And, yes, I know how to use technology. I have restarted my phone, disconnected and reconnected to the network, updated all of my apps, deleted apps and then reinstalled them in case that was the problem, got my husband to check everything for me, etc. So now I just disconnect from their guest wifi, which is password protected and I'm fine with, and use my own downloaded files or my cell phone data. Maybe I can get past it with a VPN, but I haven't tried that yet. They must have some sort of barrier on their guest wifi that doesn't let anybody do anything. It sucks.

So, I like this workout anytime. I can work out here, feel safe here, and enjoy my time here. Hopefully the wifi can get fixed and maybe the hydro massage can get moved around. Thanks guys!

I would highly suggest not going to this gym! Keep in mind reading this: My boyfriend, brother, sister, AND myself all ran into a similar issue, so it’s not a one off situation. I moved out of Knoxville, so I wanted to cancel my membership. I was fully aware I signed a year long contract but once the contract ended, on the day that it ended I called in to cancel it. It was an absolute nightmare. It wasn’t until four months after they figured out how to cancel and we continued to get charged. It’s extremely difficult to cancel and they will try all possible avenues to get more money from you….just random excuses to keep charging. If you sign a year long contract be prepared to pay at least 4 extra months.

I can't recommend this gym to anybody. When I signed up for a membership, I was concerned about how small the gym was, and the person who signed me up assured the gym was not busy in the early morning (around 5 AM). When I arrived at the gym at that time, it was plenty busy--due to it's small size and limited equipment, if someone is in the middle of a working out a particular muscle group, there's hardly room for anyone else to do their own. If one person is doing their chest workout when you arrive, you'll have to work around them.

In particular, when I went to the gym that morning, there was one guy supersetting on the squat rack and cable machines in a way that made it difficult to start any part of my routine. When I voiced this complaint, they wanted a detailed description of this man so they could go through their logs, find out who this was, and reprimand them for doing a superset. This seemed overreaching--I wasn't trying to "tattle" on this guy, and nothing about this solution satisfied me at all.

Once you get signed up, you have a very short window to cancel. I successfully charged back the signup fee on my credit card when I explained to my card company how this gym was misrepresented to me, but they've recently charged the fees to my checking account. I wish they would have just been cool and let me cancel my membership, but now I suppose I have to be on the hook for a year so they don't attack my credit score. A speeding ticket has comparatively less consequence than cancelling a membership with Workout Anytime.

If you are getting into fitness, I suggest Planet Fitness for getting started out. If you work out with barbells or do any sort of intensive strength training, look anywhere else. This is not a place for you. I regret ever coming to this gym.

Open 24/7 and pretty inexpensive which is nice. I just wish the building were a bit larger so they could fit an actual deadlift platform and an extra squat rack and flat bench. Fortunately there isn't usually a wait during off-peak hours.

They were fine initially. Then sent my information to a collection company after I called and got instructions to mail in my cancelation (2 times) and did not go to the gym. Even though I was month-to-month membership Workout anytime has a shady business practice where you have to mail in a letter to their corporate office 30 days before canceling, which I did (twice). To be safe, I also canceled my credit card knowing the shady business of gyms. Even though Ive been on a month-to-month membership and stopped going, they sent my information to a collection agency (NetCollections) for $226.27 for the ~7 months I didn't go to the gym. Based on other reports Ive read, I think they don't do anything with the letters you mail in and try to make it even more difficult to cancel your membership. Dont tolerate these shady practices.

Pretty great gym. If you do barbell exercises it's easier to go at an off time to avoid wait.

Desperately needs to revisit their cancellation policies. They intentionally make it difficult to cancel, and will not accept in-person cancellations. You have to mail in cancellation letters, and they charge you a month or two after receiving the cancellation letter.
Edit: They also harass and threaten users who leave honest reviews which happen to be negative. Their treatment of former customers on Facebook, Yelp, and Google is unprofessional and combative.

One of the best parts of the membership is the variety of gyms. This particular gym had there system not working, instead of working to fix the error, the owner was rude and called the one I joined practically shouting at them. I waited 15 minutes before finally leaving, the owner never even apologized. And He never got his side of the error fixed. I’ve been to several other of these chain gyms since then as I’ve had an active membership for a long time and they are all great this is the only one I’ve had an issue with.

I love my gym! I was a member of a big box gym and hated it! My son found workout anytime bearden and it was just what I was looking for. The staff is always nice and helpful. The owners make sure that all the equipment is well maintained and it is always clean. I recommend this gym to anyone who wants a great workout for a great price.

Workout anytime? More like workout-never. Came to sign up for a membership on Sunday, called them and they said they are too busy on the voicemail. It says 24/7, that is false advertising and your company needs to change it's name to "Just a Gym Open Sometimes."

Workout Anytime in Bearden is not only the best gym, but also a great value. The owners are usually there to make sure things are running smoothly and all the staff is very friendly and always willing to assist.
The place is spotless and very well maintained. April gave me a great
deal of her time and set up a comprehensive workout session for me.
If you are looking for a place to workout this is definitely worth your
time and consideration. Great people!

The only reason it doesn't get a five star from me is the teeny, tiny locker room.
I've worked out for years and never seen a gym with a smaller locker room. My preference is to shower and change immediately following my workout, but it just isn't a comfortable option here. If there are more than 2 people in the locker room, it is overcrowded.
That said, although the gym size is small, they manage to fit a lot in it. The staff is very good, the gym is very clean. Sometimes you have to have patience if you prefer machines over free weights, but that's been my experience almost everywhere.
And you can't beat the cost!!!

This gym now gets the well deserved 5 stars as Tyler has made it magically happen and has turned this gym into a warm, high energy fun place to work out, massage and tan! Today, yet again, I was treated like a queen and before I knew it, my hour workout went by! I am looking forward to Fridays and Tuesdays to workout at the Bearden, my 2nd home from Morristown WOA 24/7! TYLER ROCKS WOA!

This is a super nice gym. Very clean place and staff are very friendly. My home gym is in Atlanta, but I was recently on travel and stopped by Workout Anytime Bearden.

Impressed with the place and its upbeat energy. If I lived in Knoxville area, this would definitely be my home gym!

Having been a former member for 3 years (before recently moving out of the area), I had a great experience. The gym was always clean, great people, and the staff was very knowledgeable. The staff took time to tour me around the facility and walk me through signing up. Signing up was very simple and easy. They did a great job answering all my questions along with teaching me how to use the equipment.

I am a black american..i wanted t o join this gym because its closer to my home then some of the others. After speaking with the front desk clerk,, I am not interested in a membership. I felt so disrespected...and now that i have also read the other comments,and HORRIBLE RESPONSES, I can now clearly see why I felt so out of place ! I have lived in Knoxville for three years, and I have never seen such clear environment of racism. By the way, despite the color of my Skin...... MY MONEY IS GREEN.

They are liars and thieves!!!
They will not cancel your contract if you move away. Even with a signed letter head from the company I moved with they refused to honor their own contract and still reported me to credit bureau !!!
GET READY TO BEND OVER FOR THIS GYM! THEY DONT HONOR THIER OWN CONTRACTS!!!
