Great place for a Great workout 5/11/2009

I've been coming to Giants Gym for about 2 months now and I absolutely love this place. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The ActivTrax system is a terrific tool to guide me through my workout. They have plenty of free weights and machine based resistance training equipment along with a diverse selection of cardio equipment. In the past 2 months I've gotten significantly better workouts then over the past year at another gym. Pros: Open 24/7, clean, staff Cons: none yet more

Great Place 4/13/2009

I haven't been going to the gym for that long, but in my time there is been a good experience. It almost reminds me of my high school gym...but in a good way. Its right down the street from my house so i can pop in before work, or just as i'm passing by. They even have a cool little bird that greats you as you walk in. Its a relaxed place and I'd recommend it to anyone. Pros: Good Machines, Close to house, Gotta love the bird! Cons: Get kind of warm inside more

I absolutely love this gym. The owner and staff are awesome, they are friendly and very helpful. I love the fact that it's never over crowded, so I never have to wait to use a certain machine.

Comfortable As Can Be! 4/12/2009

In The Short Time I've Been Going To Giants I Have Had A Great Experience, I Felt Un-Comfortable Going To Other Big Time Gym's In The Area. I Felt Like It Was A Beauty Contest, Not A Place To Try And Reach My Own Personal Goals. Giant's Is The Complete Opposite! I Was Right At Home As Soon As I Walked Through The Doors. They Immediately Wanted To Help Me Reach My Full Potential, And I Really Appreciated That. I Enjoy Going To The Gym Now And It's All Because Of The Wonderful Staff There. Pros: Not Intimidating To Work Out, Friendly Staff, Tanning Cons: :) more

Local Gym With A Great Atmosphere 4/12/2009

Giants Gym is a great local facility that sets their members up for success. With a great staff and friendly members, they make the gym experience enjoyable(which is hard to say at a lot of places). Its pretty spacious(8,500 sq ft.) and their FREE personal training program really makes my workout fast and easy. The owner George is amazing, he knows each member individually and it truly makes a different in their day. Plus they have tanning! And in portland thats pretty much the only way you'll get color haha Pros: 24 hr, Excellent Staff, Free Parking, Friendly Members,C Cons: What Cons? more

Gym-tastic 9/14/2008

I've had gym memberships before but I always found ways to talk myself out of commitment to regular gym use- crowded workout areas, dirty machines and locker rooms, impartial staff, awkward commute. Giant's gym is super close to my house, clean, never crowded, and the staff is really friendly. The Active Trax workout plans are good for someone like me, who knows very little about how to work out, and the staff steps in to fill in the blanks. I told Jung that the ab exercises on my printout didn't seem to work my muscles very hard- he put me through a workout that definitely changed my tune. Fantastic experience, all around. I will be back regularly. more

I love this gym!!! & Yung 2 5/24/2008

I recently came back to Giant's Gym after moving across the bridge to Camas,Wa. I was previously a member for 3 years. What brought me back to giants was the staff and atmosphere. I dont mind the drive to Portland 3-5 times a week to workout in an un-crowded, clean, no BS atmosphere, unlike; 24 Witness, and Sally Total Fitness. Even if gas is over 4 bucks a gallon. If you need a trainer who knows their stuff get in touch with Yung. he works swing shift and has great knowledge when it comes to putting together routines for people of all fitness levels. Equipment is great cause its simple and clean, and you dont have to wait around for someone to get on them. Hepp up the good work George and staff! Pros: All around best place in the PDX / Vancouver area to workout at... more

Great Gym - No Hassle 5/7/2008

I have been going to Giants for the past 4 years and I love it. In all honesty, I am selfish and don't want to tell people about this gym - because I relish the fact that it's never crowded and I hardly ever have to wait for equipment ... But the truth is that this is a fantastic local business and I feel good about supporting them. The trainers and staff at the gym are friendly and professional. For the past year, I've been working out with Jung - and he really pushes me to my limits. I've not only noticed a change in my body - but also in my attitude about working out and knowing what my body is capable of. Giants Gym rocks. Pros: parking, friendly staff, casual atmosphere, not crowded more

I love working out with Yung at Giants.Before I started training with him, my routines had become boring, and I felt as though I had reached a plateau.He showed me so many new exercises, as well as new techniques for the routine I had been doing. I would recommend him as a trainer to athletes of any level! more

Best Gym in Portland 4/5/2008

The large selection of weight equipment is great, the location on NE Sandy Blvd is very convenient, and I'm happy to support a locally owned business. I was pleasantly surprised today to see the addition of new treadmills. A couple months ago I started personal training sessions with Yung. He is a great guy, very knowledgeable, and has helped me achieve my goals of getting stronger and being in better cardio shape through the circuit training programs he has developed. more

No Meat Market Here! 3/25/2008

I was SO tired of fighting the crowds and waiting for equipment before I came to Giants Gym. They have a tremedous selection of free weights and machines, are open 24 ;hours a day, and I can always get to the equipment when I need it. I thought I didn't need the Activetracks workout program ( I have a lot of experience) but it was free so I tried it.....wow! My workouts are quicker, more comprehensive, and I never get bored! Awesome gym! Pros: Great Atmosphere, Casual, Open 24 hours a day more

Great Neighborhood Gym! 3/25/2008

I had tried the big chain club before and did not have a clue about how to workout or get started. They offered help with a separate 600 dollar program! At Giants Gym, they spent time doing a fitness history, and planning my custom workouts for free! I have been on the program for close to a year and have lost 40 pounds, and feel great. The staff is helpful and knowledgeable, the place is clean, it is casual, locally owned, and it's not crowded! I also enjoy supporting a local business. Pros: Clean, great custom workouts, friendly staff more
