Been coming here for years and have transformed my body by using real weights and lifting unimpeded. Good free weights, hammer strength and machine options as well. Cardio room provides treadmills, bikes, ellipticals, step mill and more. People in here look the part because they come to work out without frills. Friendly people, locally owned, fair pricing.

No frills. Unpretentious. Wu, the owner, is helpful, friendly, knowledgeable. Really like this gym a lot...as a place to lift weights and as a place to be myself without judgment on my fitness journey

This gym is amazing. I absolutely love it. I stopped by today just to check it out- and ended up getting a day pass and stayed for two hours. By the end of my session, I was hooked and bought a monthly membership.

I was a little nervous going in by myself as I'm a tiny(ish) lady that hasn't lifted in over a year, but I was put at ease immediately when I walked in. Wu greeted me and introduced himself and helped me get signed in, and was very warm and welcoming and genuine. I knew that I could ask him questions and for assistance with anything I didn't know or understand- and I did - and he was super kind and helpful.

Several other women were there while I was there - lifting hard and working hard - which I found really encouraging and cool to see.

Definitely the kind of gym where anyone of any background can come and have a good time working out. And I agree with the other reviews - the playlist was amazing.

Great vibes overall, very beginner friendly, not intimidating, and supportive environment. I'm so happy and grateful to have found this place, and I highly recommend Body Creations to anyone else trying to find a "home" gym.

Pretty solid gym, great location, plenty of parking, amazing atmosphere, super friendly staff, and great hours/price. If you forgot your headphones, no worries! This place is bumping good vibes throughout the day. Definitely has everything you’d want in a gym to stay in shape or progress. Also gives me a hardcore home gym vibe.

Good price ($10 day pass), tonnes of heavy weights and old (but gold) machines. Even has a shower. And as others have said, good playlist as well. Highly recommend. I have a video tour of the gym on my YT @a_true_menace (Video 007)

This gym has everything you need. It's definitely "old school," but that's exactly what I wanted from a gym -- tons of dumbbells and plates, plenty of benches and cable stations and useful machines, and people (trainers and members) who know what they're doing. It's got Metroflex vibes, and if you know bodybuilding you know what Metroflex means. If you want to get jacked (or shredded, or just in better shape), this is probably the best place in town for you.

Also has the best workout playlist, by a long shot, of any gym I've worked out in, which is great for me, since I can't wear earbuds.

If you’re looking for an awesome gym, this is it! Membership is a great price, and there’s no fees that other gyms charge which is great if you’re traveling or not in town long term. There’s a variety of equipment, and the owner is super cool, he’ll definitely make you feel welcome.

This place is awesome, it's an old school gym that basically has everything, the membership isn't expensive either! It's not really kid-friendly but a teenager 14/15 should be able to come here.

I've been coming to BC for about 2 years now and I can proudly say it has been the best gym I've ever been a member of. This is not anything like your typical commercial gym. It is clean, there are no corporate rules, and owned and operated by one guy. Wu's passion for this gym is heavily contagious and his positive energy makes it impossible for anyone to have a bad workout, let alone a bad day! The culture in this gym are unparalleled and all members feel welcomed. For me this is a hardcore bodybuilding gym with a variety of free weights, machines, and cardio equipment. You are not going to find another gym like this anywhere near here so check it out!

Old school, hardcore atmosphere that will push you to train your hardest. Doesn't matter if you're an experienced bodybuilder or have never set foot in a gym, the owner and members are all very welcoming and this place will quickly feel like home. Not many gyms like this left, and we're so lucky to have this hidden gem in RVA!
Equipment is awesome - all very old school (Nautilus, King Strength, Body Masters, etc) and the absolute best hack squat ever made! Weights are rusty, as they should be (makes 'em heavier, which = more gains lol). Music is bumping.
Hands down the best gym in Richmond, and one of the best I've ever visited anywhere!

I'm not in Richmond more than one weekend a month but wanted to find a gym for when I am there. Drove past Body Creations a few times and decided to walk in and see if they did one day passes. Wu is an awesome guy and keeps good trainers around. One day passes are really well priced and the gym couldn't be better. Leave your headphones at home and enjoy the atmosphere here

I absolutely love this gym, its not fancy, so don't expect state of the art. But if you are serious or just starting out, this is a great place to plan your workouts. This place is staffed with some of the BEST trainers I have ever worked with. They have lots of equipment and its organized for your workout. The people that come here are super nice and courteous. NO stealing of your dumbells or worse your bench. LOL, we all know that happens way to often in the upscale gyms. IF you have a question, they are thorough and help you understand, or if you are a pro, they simply stay out of your way. If you are looking for a good Old School gym, here it is! Highly recommend it! Talk to Scott about membership, or Wu, Zach or Shayna for a fitness consult. No matter what you are looking for in a trainer THESE PT's have it!!
