At this time, this gym is ideal for me - good location and centrally located in Bearden. Small, but not too small with all the equipment that I would ever use. Staff is very friendly and attentive, and they are always cleaning the facility and equipment. I go there primarily for personal training with the owner, April. Having never worked with a trainer before, I have to say that it has been highly beneficial and well worth the cost.

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 signed up to join before they even opened. Best decision I ever made! Also the cleanest gym I have ever been to! The owners and entire staff really want the members to succeed in their goals and are always happy to help! Regulars all know each other and are friendly and encouraging as well. New members are also made to feel welcome. Nice to see smiling, friendly faces while working out. All the personal trainers are great, but April is the best! Try it out, you won't regret it!

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 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.

I have been a member of this gym since 2019 (I believe). When I first started I had never worked out in my life and felt totally intimidated. Luckily, April (owner) took me under her wing and began training me three times a week. Now, I feel confident in my workout routine and continue to see progress. I really don’t understand the bad reviews on here. The staff is always very friendly and accommodating. Kurt and April (owners) have made me feel like family every time I walk into WOA. The equipment is always clean and in working condition. When there are the occasional issues, the staff is on it quickly. Can’t say enough good things about WOA Bearden. Love it here and will continue to use this gym.

I’m glad I finally listened to my husband and joined this gym. This gym stands apart from other gyms because of the positive, upbeat, happy and family environment. April is an amazing owner, operator and trainer. Her and her team kick my butt twice a week! The staff that work there are kind and fun. The people that go there are very supportive and helpful. If you need a place to go unwind, smile, workout, trainer, learn about health and fitness, have a nice massage (chair) and tan you must come here. I have not found one thing I don’t like and I’m picky according to my husband!

I started going here after moving in April and have really enjoyed it, I tend to go later at night and the door being locked unless you scan your membership card makes me feel a lot safer. I have never had cleanliness issues or overcrowding issues, even when I go in the middle of the day. Great gym!

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’ve been a member for years, but just recently been going consistently. Very friendly staff that welcome you when you walk in. Very clean. They do a great job at keeping the sanitizing bottles full! I like the “small gym feel” because it’s not so overwhelming. :)
