I’ve been going to Training Grounds for a few years. Moved out of town and tried 3 other gyms, none of which could even come close to meeting the bar. Probably the best gym that you will ever find. My wife and I always found ourselves wishing that we were back at TG. Plenty of equipment for everyone, even during peak hours. Tons of variety for whatever form of fitness that you are into. A great staff who take pride in what they do, their gym, and their members.

I've been going to Training Grounds for about a month now and joining has by far been one of the best decisions I've made in years (and arguably my adult life). When I was younger, I was much more active on various sports teams and in martial arts. However when I came out as gay, I was "encouraged" to no longer be a part of those teams; my performance didn't matter as much as how a gay member of the team "affected morale" and so I lost that spark to work on myself the way I wanted to and the way I was used to through athletics.
Over ten years later after discovering strongman and being recommended by friends to join this gym (that recently started a monthly strongman class and has many of the event implements to train with), while I was initially intimidated by the idea of trying to join a gym and simply be visible, what makes Training Grounds so unique is that it self-selects for people who not only value working on and improving themselves, but who hope the same for those around them.
I've not experienced any judgment, only kindness. If you have a question, their staff and trainers don't mind helping. Regardless if it's busy or quiet, everyone's in their own world focusing on their work with everyone being mindful and courteous of those around them.
While Training Grounds has the reputation as a "serious" gym, the description is a bit of a misnomer in that it's not a place just for professional athletes (though you'll find plenty of them across various disciplines). The seriousness stems from the culture of intent around wanting to improve yourself around others who are working to improve themselves. And of the new friends I've made here, no matter how strong or experienced you are, they still treat you as an equal. It truly is a gym for everyone who values that mutual progress and growth, whether it's a parent helping their kid learn how to bench press for the first time, people rehabilitating after accidents or injury, friends working out together after work or class, or athletes getting ready for their next competition.
Though this review might be a bit more verbose than what you might be looking for, I cannot express how grateful I am for joining because beyond the equipment, the environment, the people, and the community Training Grounds has built, to find a place where I can put in the work without fear of judgment or prejudice, to be treated as a human being who's allowed to be there when so often, queer people are kicked off various teams or out of athletic environments simply for being visible for who they are... well, it's been a rare moment in my life to be accepted as just another person working on himself and not being afraid of rejection simply on the basis of who I am.
With that in mind, if ever you feel like you're stuck, that you feel like you're not reaching your potential (physically, at work, emotionally, mentally), Training Grounds is a great environment to lay a foundation for a better life for yourself through fitness and community. That isn't to say you have to go 110% into a new program, but just having a place to run a treadmill, row, or pick up heavy things can help you prove you're much stronger than you realize; how that ripples across the rest of your life can't be overstated, nor can Training Grounds' role in enabling people to come to that realization.

Pretty serious gym. Lots of equipment, mostly in very good shape. (A few benches need re-foam-and-cover-ing.) 24 hour access once you've joined. There are even Atlas stones and other Strongman equipment in the back. Pricing is higher than other places and it's a bit out of my way, but I am going to stick with it for at least a couple of months while the cheaper places are extremely busy...

Incredible gym .
The selection of machines they have , including the great variety of accessory exercises like hip thrust machines and reverse hyper is great! They even have a strongman section with things like farmers walk device (which I can’t lift ) and stones, and their dumbbells go up to 125 pounds .
There is a sled run too.
In addition to all that the staff is great !

Training Grounds is more than just a gym—it's a comprehensive fitness haven in Bellingham, catering to everyone from powerlifters to bodybuilders, and those interested in Olympic lifting or strongman training. This boutique gym stands out from the larger chain gyms like 24-Hour Fitness or Planet Fitness by focusing on the specific needs of its clientele, offering specialized equipment and a tailored experience.
What sets Training Grounds apart is its commitment to quality and constant improvement. The owners regularly update the equipment, ensuring members have access to the best and newest gear available. Despite the higher price point compared to budget gyms, it feels extremely reasonable given the quality of facilities and equipment provided.
The gym is immaculately clean and well-organized, with everything you need neatly in place. It’s open 24/7, making it incredibly convenient to fit a workout into any schedule. As someone who has been frequenting commercial gyms for over 25 years, I can confidently say Training Grounds is the best gym experience I’ve had.
Whether you're a serious lifter looking for a dedicated place to train or someone new to fitness wanting a supportive environment, Training Grounds is the place to be. It’s not just a gym, it’s a community where you can push your limits and achieve your fitness goals in the best possible setting.

Excellent gym!
I was visiting the area for a couple weeks, and was looking for a gym to keep my strength training workouts on track. I am so happy that I found Training Grounds - it is a rare gym - a place with a vast amount of equipment but also an all-are-welcome vibe. People are friendly, but also let you have your space to workout. Unlike many gyms, there is a good mix of men and women working out - all are welcome!

The only gym I'm aware of where you can buy a day pass for $10 or at all really. Must check out their equipment is up to date and when it's not they replace it and set the old stuff right outside with a free sign on it.

Bellingham’s premier fitness facility. This gym has everything ANY type of lifter needs. Any equipment you could think of - they have it. And even if it’s peak time of the day like 5pm, you’ll still have enough equipment to use without running out of options.
The hours: 24 hours. So it will fit anyone’s schedule. They have security cameras.
The staff: friendly, accommodating and always helpful. The owners Kyle and Dani are always available when questions about the gym need to be addressed. Ben, Dave, and the entire staff are always friendly and around to help out.
Parking: adequate for the amount of foot traffic and secure.
Amenities: Infrared sauna, shower rooms and ADA bathrooms.
Membership: flexible, month to month and reasonable for the amount of equipment you have access to.

Training grounds is the absolute greatest gym in the Northwest region. When I first joined this gym a year ago I had no idea what the fitness community was about. Here I have found what it truly means. This place is very special and continues to grow the fitness community. The only bad thing I find when I get home is I look at myself in the mirror more and more from the results of my workout. This might happen to you too.

I love this gym! I’ve been going here for a few years now and they are always buying new equipment and improving the space. Lots of equipment, I rarely have to wait for something to open up. I love that they don’t force you into contracts and you can easily cancel anytime and they have drop in available as well if you just want to try it out or are here from out of town. The owners, Dani and Kyle and the rest of the staff are always so friendly. I also train with Kyle and he is a fantastic trainer as well!

I have been lifting at Training Grounds for over a year. I was drawn to their gym because of their powerlifting community and top notch equipment. Unfortunately, my experience with Training Grounds turned negative on the afternoon of Wednesday May 1st when I was inexplicably blocked by the two gym owners, Dani Schemm and Kyle Obsorne, and another staff member, David Le, from entering Training Grounds and my membership canceled without my knowledge - all with no clear explanation. I have reached out to the owners to apologize for my shock-induced response in the parking lot and to ask for an explanation. I have received no response. I have never harassed any Training Grounds patrons or staff, stolen or damaged their equipment, or otherwise been a threat to the facility. No staff have ever talked to me with concerns about my behavior.
Instead I was met with intimidation and bullying at the front door that led to a panic attack. I am beyond disappointed by how unprofessional they were in addressing and communicating with me. I would hope that as a professional business, they would have a clearly available way for patrons to share feedback, and also clear expectations on a code of conduct. Neither of which is the case.
So for those of you who go to Training Grounds, or who are thinking about it, beware. Watch yourself and anything you do or say as it could be used against you and without any warning.

Pretty cool gym. Good equipment; 24/7 access, lots of space, etc.
My only little gripe comes from the cleaning and organization of the place. While gym members should be cleaning after themselves and racking their weights (which a lot of them don’t) I’ve seen the same un-racked weights and trash around the gym for around 3 weeks. The heavy bag room has had the same Hersheys bar wrappers and water/gatorade bottles just laying around and it looks like the area hasn’t had a good cleaning in ages. Just seems like the staff rarely goes around to clean or organize weights.
Regardless, it is a pretty good gym. And I still highly recommend it. Just do your due diligence to clean before and after lifting weights or hitting the bags.

The eye don’t answer their phone or their emails. They must have enough members that they don’t care about bringing on new ones.
To clarify, I actually emailed both owners to the email addresses listed on their website. This attempt was made a couple of weeks (or more) prior to Christmas Day. That just happened to be the day that I decided to write the review. I double checked to make sure I had the correct email addresses and I did.
At this point, the hassle of trying to get ahold of anyone at this gym to try and answer a few basic questions isn’t worth it any longer. I’ll look for a gym that values getting new members through the door.

Was a fan of the gym, Able to take my sons with me. Unfortunately they implemented a new rule due to some kids roughhousing in the gym, that anyone under 18 has to leave before 9 pm. My son was abiding by the rule but one of the trainers that goes by mowhi or something like that, was very rude to my son and made him feel uncomfortable, even before it was time to leave. The gym itself is great.

This gym literally has everything you could ever want. I was astounded at the amount of equipment here. CrossFit? Yep. Powerlifting? Yep. Cardio? Yep. Bodybuilding? Yep. MMA? Yep. Not sure what you’re doing, but want to workout? Yep. I did CrossFit for many years and had not programmed my own workouts for a long time, every single person I asked for help was super friendly and helpful. It feels a bit intimidating and bro-y at first, but everyone is great. I haven’t done any personal training yet, but they have a trainer for anyone and whatever goals you have. The price is completely reasonable for everything you get. I had to cancel my membership for a while because I can’t risk being exposed to Covid due to caring for my elderly immune suppressed mother, Kyle was completely understanding and went out of his way to help. I will definitely be back and get will recommend this gym to anyone who will listen.

I have been going to Training grounds for about 10 months now, and let me say, for 50$ a month it’s worth every penny. Not only do you have access to the highest quality machines and equipment you can buy, but the trainers/ owners are the most down-to-earth and helpful people. Not to mention they provide full meals, snacks and drinks to perfectly satisfy your post workout cravings. Do not be afraid to ask any type of fitness and wellness related questions because the staff understands that everyone starts somewhere. If you are just starting for the first time in your life or even if you’ve been training for 15+ years, Training grounds is more than ideal. If you take care of the place, the place takes even more care of you. This gym has changed my life and I will remember this place for the rest of my life. It blows all the other gyms in bellingham out of the water by MILES. If you can afford it and you’re just trying to decide wether you should or not, stop thinking about it and do it. You will not find another gym like this anywhere close to Bellingham.

Best gym in Bellingham without any question. Very welcoming place. I think the owners have built a great space, it's a sandbox to play in really. This gym has everything you could ever want and then some. Every type of bar, rack, anything. There will be things you may not have seen before, but it's all very useful equipment.
In my very short time there so far it is obvious there is diversity there. In body types, goals, training methods, training intensity. I love coming here and this is the best gym I've ever been to.

Amazing gym! Kyle, Dani, and everyone at KO have created a truly spectacular gym. The equipment, atmosphere, and culture could not have been better. Especially in terms of creating the best version of yourself. Between the equipment and the culture of challenging everyone to be the best that they can, I broke through all of my perceived limitations and became the biggest and strongest that I have ever been. I could never say a single bad thing about KO, it's the single best gym that I have ever been to.

I was fortunate enough to be one of the first members of K.O. Training Grounds. If you are serious about your fitness, preparing for a competition or just trying to better yourself through exercise; this is the perfect place. Any piece of equipment you need, they have (Some that you can't find anywhere else). The environment is unlike any other. Everyone is so supportive of each other regardless of what they are there to work on. Whether you are new to working out or a seasoned vet, Kyle and everyone he brings on to train in that gym are incredibly knowledgeable. If you can set your ego aside, you will learn everything you need. I can't say enough about what this gym and the people there have done for me.

Finding a gym with the space and equipment for Olympic weightlifting is always hard when traveling, but I was in town for a week and dropped in every single day to get my lifts in—love this place! The owners are super involved and make the environment really motivating and welcoming (Kyle is the best hype man ever). Besides platforms, bumper plates, bars, etc. for Olympic weightlifting there’s stuff for really any fitness thing you want to do: Crossfit, bodybuilding, lots of cardio equipment, Rogue rigs, even strong man stuff. Couldn’t recommend this place more!

Best gym in town! You'd be hard pressed to find better equipment, better members, better owners or a better atmosphere anywhere else. No ego lifters, or people who "work out" just to be seen. All serious lifters from powerlifters to people just learning to lift, strongmen competitors to bikini competitors, and everyone in between, we all train together and get better together everyday!

I have been working out at KO Fitness Training Grounds full time for about a month and half now, BUT I've been Kyle's client for over a year so I feel like I've got a credible grasp on who he is and what he represents. I came to him to help me train for my first NPC competition and that is a decision I will NEVER regret. Body building has changed my life immensely not just physically, but mentally too--I honestly don't think that if I had gone to ANYONE else, I wouldn't have had that same impression. There's an authenticity and uniqueness about Kyle's training style and theory that makes it so special. I have so much self confidence, I know my way around the gym (especially the weight area now ;)), and I've made the best of friends on this journey--And they all workout at KO! I love being surrounded by people who truly care about their fitness journey and we're all there to lift each other up. I would recommend KO to anyone who wants fitness to be a part of their LIFE and make friends doing it.

KO Fitness is such a great gym! I have to admit that the first time I walked through the doors I felt a little bit intimidated. Everyone seemed dedicated and fit and I knew that's where I wanted to be. So I walked back through the doors and I'm glad I did. Kyle and Danielle are amazing people and take pride in what they do. Kyle is an awesome trainer and I appreciate his knowledge in fitness and nutrition. I also appreciate how he pushes me! This is a great place to be to get fit!

This gym is like family to me. The best part about it is the people. Everyone is super motivated and determined to crush their goals. I have made so many friends. The gym atmosphere is so positive and encouraging. The owners Kyle and Danielle are extremely passionate and knowledgeable about diet and nutrition. They always make you feel welcome and greet you with hugs. If you're looking to transform your physique like I was and willing to work hard, Kyle produces results. He knows his stuff. And ladies, he's known as "the butt guy!" I am walking proof of that. I went from soft & flat body to toned & defined. Not to mention he helped me win a couple bikini bodybuilding 1st places and an overall. Get out there and make your dreams a reality!

KO Fitness is by far the BEST gym in Bellingham! Here is a list of reasons why:
1) Kyle and Danielle are the perfect definition of gym owners. From the moment I met them it has been clear that fitness is their passion. There is no better trainer than a passionate trainer. Danielle is the strongest lady in town (no, really) and Kyle is a beast. They know their stuff!
2) The atmosphere is welcoming. Everyone is super supportive and will likely cheer you on to keep going. It’s pretty amazing. The walls have motivating quotes and a huge photo of Aarnold Schwarzenegger, what more could you ask for?
3) All of the members are inspiring and motivating. EVERYONE THERE. I’m constantly amazed by the dedication I see coming from the members, it’s amazing.
4) The machines are awesome. I’ve never seen some of the equipment I’ve seen at KO Fitness, it actually makes for a fun time.. an example being the PitShark.. see about it.
5) Kyle challenges you, but makes sure you are safe. I always feel properly aligned with Kyle because he always properly aligns me. He’s always encouraging and always answers questions I have as well as questions I didn’t think I had.
6) There are all types of bodies within the gym and they are alllllll amazing. Everyone is so strong! Everybody has a different shape and size and they are all 100% beautiful. I love seeing how diverse everyone is and how strong they are within themselves.
7) I can see my own strength developing which is truly a gift. I can jump 30’ without thinking twice which may not seem like anything to some people but means A LOT to me seeing as I was a pansy just a month ago. At this rate I’ll likely be able to jump over a car and with Kyles encouragement I’m a firm believer that’s possible.
8) The before and after pictures I’ve seen are bonkers. If you want to see dedication... you got it!!!
There are many many other reasons... come to KO Fitness and SEE FOR YOURSELF! Also it’s 24 hours so no excuse.... :)

A REAL gym! You won’t find rows of cardio equipment a mile long, or see groups of people socializing whilst curling in the squat rack, nor will you find any of the froofroo nonsense you get at most gyms. The equipment is top notch, several pieces are the only ones you will find in Washington state. the coaches are excellent! They go above and beyond to help you reach your fitness goals whether you be a bodybuilder, powerlifter, bikini competitor or you just want to get in better shape! The atmosphere is light, but you can feel the determination in the air. Everyone is friendly, but they are here for a reason and so should you be! If you come, you come TO LIFT!!!

This gym was my second home before i moved to Arizona. Everyone who walks through that door is treated like family by the owners Kyle and Dani. There is no gym with a better atmosphere than KO. If you are looking to reach goals, get help with lifting, or just meet a great group of people then go to this amazing place!

As well as basic lifting equipment they have equipment no other gyms have (Love the Pit Sharks!). Very convenient and affordable. Wouldn't want to workout anywhere else!
