Love this place! I was looking to get away from the busy commercial gyms in Tampa that are always packed at 5pm, and I found the perfect hidden gem. The Forge is always a friendly and comfortable environment, smaller space but all of the equipment you will need. The owners are super friendly and easy to communicate with. If you’re looking for a great gym environment and escaping the masses of people at commercial gyms, this is the place. And it’s always a plus to support a local and veteran owned business.

This gym is the PERFECT gym. Locally owned and operated, 24/7 access, wonderful equipment. Supporting local is SO important especially when the owners of a great establishment take so much pride and effort in making sure that their members get exceptional services. You will LOVE the atmosphere, energy and especially the top of the line equipment that THE FORGE has. If you're in the South Tampa or surrounding areas and aren't going here you are missing out.

This place was okay, some of the machines didn’t work. It was very small, and had minimal equipment. Also doesn’t have lockers or showers for women. So it doesn’t feel super safe or inviting in that regard. Only one bathroom so if you need to do anything besides use it real quick you may have people waiting. Also the place was kind of dirty and machines could use a very good cleaning. Pros is open 24/7 and crowd is minimal, good prices can get a solid workout but this gym is definitely for a certain type of crowd and won’t cater to everyone which is fine.

Small 24/7 gym with nice equipment and dumbbells up to 150lbs. Went around 7pm which would be peak times for most gyms but there was only 4 other people working out. Would definitely recommend this hidden gym in Tampa area for people looking for a more quite and personal fitness experience

This low-key gym is where you want to be if you’re ready to achieve your fitness goals. I like it because it’s not packed like commercial gyms in the area, and to gain access a member must buzz in through an app designated for members only.

An excellent gym! Always clean, and has all the equipment needed! It is never pack so never have to wait on a machine or weights! The staff go above and beyond to make the members happy! I can not say enough good things! The best part is the convenience factor for me, open 24/7!

This place is perfect, as someone who had spent time in deployed gyms as well this place completely nails the vibe. Perfect amount of equipment, and plenty of personal space. No annoying front check in person, no annoying trainers hovering, and most importantly no one hogging or hovering over you while you work out. Love the experience so far, the exact gym atmosphere I’ve been looking for. Which I hate because no I don’t have an excuse to not work out anymore. Thanks Forge!

Great gym. Really like the 24/7 aspect, cleanliness and high quality equipment. Worked out with Matt one of the independent trainers there. He was very professional and showed me some great exercises. Highly recommend this facility!

I stopped into this gym for a week and it was AWESOME! Great equipment, easy access, friendly and welcoming owner. Love that they have a boxing room and area for stretching and mobility. Highly recommend. I will be definitely be back!

I love this gym! The staff are are super friendly and always keeps the gym clean. The owner Tom is great and always willing to answer any questions and help you with whatever is you need. Everything you’ll need to get a good workout in is there and always working

Great gym. I've been a member of the Forge for a few months now and have been really impressed with the cleanliness and maintenance of the facility. It's always spotless, no matter what time of day or night I go in. I'm very happy with my decision to join the Forge and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a gym.

love this gym. I can’t do large packed gyms and this one is small and never crowded. guests can control the music through an iPad. never had any weird encounters with other male guests like I usually would at a bigger gym. so grateful to have found the forge :)

Amazing Gym! The staff here is incredibly friendly and extremely qualified. Such a family vibe as soon as you walk in the doors. I highly recommend checking this gym out you will not be disappointed by any means. By far the best facility around. Provides a safe, functional and comfortable workout environment. Plus you have 24/7 access. If I could give 10 stars I would.

If you want to go to a gym with no pressure and good vibes with a feel for genuine health and wellness please go to The Forge. I've been to multiple gyms and trained with people from all facets of life but this is the place that made me truly feel at home. Thanks to all involved. Love this place. Couldn't recommend a better establishment ❤️

The forge is a great and comfortable place to workout with new equipment. I’ve never had to wait excessive amounts of times to use machines and always have a great lift. The community here is amazing as well as the gym owner Tom who is so kind and helpful. I definitely recommend this place!

Best gym ever!!! The forge creates a comfortable environment for someone who is new to working out. Everyone is so friendly and approachable. Forge for life!

Great gym! Has everything you need. It never feels crowded. The owner is very nice, which definitely creates a friendly environment. So happy I made the change from a big commercial gym.

So happy to have found a local gym that takes pride in what they do. The owner is there regularly and involved in every aspect of the gym. He is always adding improvements and new equipment to better the facility. Also love that this gym is a serious gym and not full of high schoolers who swarm and take over equipment, don't work out, clean, or take care of the equipment. Great place to lift and proud to be a part of the Forge fam.

This is a great gym with everything you need. The owners are very helpful and were responsive and got me set up right away. Highly recommended!

I got a weeks pass while I was visiting family and got to say The Forge is the spot. Online sign up, spoke to no one in 7 days, and the gym has everything you need while being clean and accessible. If you like to workout this is your gym. I will definitely be back.

I was a member at a big box gym before joining Forge, and I have to say, I love it here! It’s worth paying a little more to have a quiet, chill space to workout (and it’s open 24/7, which is a plus for early morning runs). Whether you are lifting weights or doing cardio, they have all the equipment you need. Highly recommend!

The forge is by far the best gym in tampa! Very clean and great location, all the members are very friendly and is never crowded. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a private gym!

Solid little gym, not super busy and has everything you would need to workout with. If you are looking for a more private and less commercial gym experience I would definitely recommend.

Gym is going downhill, unfortunately. Most members used to be courteous, but now there are many who treat the gym as if it is in their own home. People tie up multiple pieces of equipment using one as a place for phone, towel, or water bottle, while working out on another. Many will sit on equipment and play with their phone for 20 minutes, and then get up after not even using the equipment at all, or will take 10 minute phone breaks during sets--effectively tying up a single piece for 30 minutes or more. Plates get re-racked about 50% of the time. Not sure how the owner can really address any of the above, since the gym is, after all, located in South Tampa where arrogance, and lack of consideration for others is the norm. The latest though, is several members now bring their large dogs and let them run loose throughout the gym. And, of course, if you don't immediately drop to your knees, and worship any and every nearby canine, you're automatically labeled a bad person. So, while trying to work out in what is a fairly tight space, you're getting licked and potentially tripped by loose dogs. This opens up all kinds of liability for the owner, and is something that they do have control over.

So far the experience has been great. I left a big box gym because I was tired of the crowds and also being harassed by the front desk as soon as I walked in trying to sell me expensive and unnecessary services, even after a polite “no thank you”. Doesn’t seem too crowded even at its peak. People clean up after themselves and it’s nice to just be able to get in and out.

The Forge has such a family/community feel and comfortable environment. The gym is usually never too crowded and can always get in everything you want without waiting for equipment. The equipment is new and up to date and the owners are awesome. Highly recommend to anyone in the Tampa area

Outstanding facility. A great variety of machines as well as free weights. The gym is very clean, easy 24/7 access, has a deadlift bar, and plenty of bumper plates. Free 3 day pass and monthly rates are priced well for what you get. Easy choice when it comes to choosing a local gym. The owner Tom is easy to reach as well and is very engaged with the gym.

This gym is beautiful. Brand new equipment and facility that is very well maintained. The staff are welcoming and friendly and the ease of setting up a membership gave me a great experience. Having 24/7 access is actually pretty convenient since I work long hours. They have all the right machines and barbells needed for heavy lifting if needed as well as stationary bikes/treadmills/stair-masters and even rowing machines for cardio. I heard them discussing small group training classes and I know their 1-on-1 personal training sessions are great from experience so I look forward to seeing what else they introduce for members!

By far the best gym I’ve ever been a member of in Tampa. Perfect price point for what you get, honestly wouldn’t even mind paying more. Owner is in the military and just a great guy overall. Every machine you need, huge variety of free weights (dumbbells, straight bars, ez bars, etc). Also it’s open 24 hours, 7 days a week. Very clean as well, highly recommend.

My name Is Matt I am one of the Independent Trainers at The Forge. The Forge has been a fantastic spot for me and my clients. Having utilized a few different facilities for my training services Tom (Owner) and the Forge have been my favorite and the most professional location I have been to. A very friendly and hard working atmosphere really help my clients perform to the best of their abilities. The equipment is top notch and some machines even hard to come by. Dumbbells up to 150lbs, multiple squat racks, and glute bridge machine are always appreciated :) The facility is very clean, and the members and staff try to keep it that way, wiping down all equipment. Overall the gym is very welcoming, great for all ages and you will have more quality workouts here than at most competitor gyms especially corporate, in the area. Busy times of the day are around 5-7:30pm normal after work hours. Least busy times are in the mornings around 8am-12noon and in the early afternoon. The Forge Is 24/7 so come in anytime to check it out! For training inquiries please dm my IG: theglorious_

Clean environment, quality customer service, 24/7 access, and good equipment. Doesn’t get too crowded during the busy hours which is nice for anyone looking to avoid the box gyms.

Best gym in South Tampa! Great equipment and great staff that enhance your workout experience. Top notch ownership.

Been going to box gyms and boutique one-on-one gyms everywhere from $30 a month to $350 a month, and no experience is greater than lifting with my family at the Forge. Everyone is super friendly, the equipment is top tier, and with the 24/7 availability you are able to get a workout in no matter what. The owners are cordial and pay attention to the needs of their members!

Great gym! Came here twice over President's Day weekend when I was visiting Tampa. Owner is really friendly and easy to communicate with for day passes + gym access. Facility is a bit small but has all the equipment you need for a strength workout (including barbells and bumper plates for deadlifts). Would definitely come back next time I'm in town.

I'm member of a few other gyms around town, but Forge is my favorite. It's 24/7 and it allows me to really focus on my workout. My workouts are better music isn't blasting in my ears and you can even pick a Playlist. If gym etiquette and cleanliness are important to you here is where you want to be! People are there to workout so nobody is playing around sitting or hoarding equipment. Machines and weights are great! As a bonus if you want to get yourself right link up with Caroline@keepinitcaroline.

Absolutely the best gym in Tampa! There’s never a lot of people when I go and everyone that I have met there is always super friendly!! The equipment is new and the gym is always clean! Love the 24/7 option! So glad I found this hidden gem!!!

I’ve been looking for a gym in the Tampa area for about 6 months and I’ve tried many different ones. I found this one online and the owner was cool enough to give me a free 3 day trial. If you are looking for a better workout and some privacy as you work out this gym is perfect. It’s got everything you need no matter what kind of workouts you are into. It’s 24 hours and never too crowded although when there are people in there they are also taking their workouts seriously and seem to all be friends with each other at the same time. It makes for a comfortable and progressive experience everytime you walk in the building. I will be signing up because I know I will get my results here and probably make some friends along the way. Thanks for the trial I now know where I am comfortable with my routine.

This gym is my happy place. I’ve tried many gyms in the past, mostly chains, and none of them made me comfortable like this gym does. Every gym I’ve been to made me feel like I was being compared and judged. I love this gym because everyone is so friendly and you can be yourself without feeling like you’re being scrutinized. I have a million good things to say about this place. For such a small place there is every piece of equipment I would need and plenty of space where you don’t feel crowded. I cannot recommend this place more.

Perfect gym for strength training/cardio. Private 24/7 access allows me to fit my work out into my changing schedule. Nice and accommodating staff. Great price for what you get - it is worth the privacy and constant access to the equipment I need for each workout (no waiting). The only reason I have to end my membership is because I am moving. Overall: 10/10 would recommend and that is coming from a previous member of crunch, LA fitness, and Anytime Fitness.

It's a great place to workout. They've got a diverse amount of equipment like trap bars and even boxing stuff. If you want to workout where you're not waiting to use equipment and get a quick workout in, this is the place for you! Great equipment and awesome location as well!

The Forge 24/7 Fitness welcomed StretchMed with open arms as a new local business. Thank you Tom for being a great host and allowing us the opportunity to do a pop up event at your gym and demo stretch some of your members. Looking forward to additional collaboration opportunities!

The best gym I’ve joined. My experience here continues to be perfect. The variety of equipment and the atmosphere here keep your workouts new and evolving. Owner Tom is more engaged than any other gym owner I’ve ever seen anywhere else and always available. Trainer Matt personalizes workouts to each individual while motivating and encouraging you to achieve personal goals with a positive and focused mindset. Could not ask for a better trainer and facility. Highly recommend!

Epic Gym Experience! Was in town visiting some family and called up Thomas to see if I could purchase a week long pass. It was only $43 for the week and using there trusty app you can access the gym 24/7. Not too crowded and has a good amount of equipment and machines, 2 full size squat racks with brand new barbells. Thomas, a veteran in the reserves now, was super friendly and provided an overall awesome experience. Will definitely be back anytime I’m in South Tampa!
