Visiting in town for a week, had an awesome experience at Subversus. Went every day -- several drop in classes as well as open gym. People both staff and those in the gym were super nice and welcoming. Have excellent equipment base almost all of which Rogue, all of which in very good condition. Was able to continue home programming without any issue. Would highly recommend.
The dude at the front seemed friendly enough, I'm sure it's not a bad place, just be aware that the pictures on Google Maps here are a little misleading. If you're looking for a place to come after work for a specific routine, this might not be your place, they don't do the things that are pictured. Those pictures might be from a different gym entirely? No clue. Planet Fitness near 12th and Chestnut is where you need to go, they're about a block away, they're 24 hours 4 days a week, close at 9 on Fridays, 7 on Saturdays and Sundays, and you can just go in and use whatever specific machines you need. Subversus still gets points for trying, though.
I love visiting gyms when I travel! I did a Monday night drop in and was immediate happy with how friendly the staff and members were. It’s a big, well-organized facility with everything you’d expect from a CrossFit gym. The coach was very vigilant about watching my form, a good sign of a gym very careful with its clients and reputation. I’d visit again in a heartbeat.
My partner and I were visiting for the week to attend a conference at the PA Conference Center. We decided to check out this gym because it was just a few blocks away. We immediately felt welcomed by the coaches and athletes. The workouts helped keep us in our normal daily routine, the coaches were clearly knowledgeable, and the atmosphere was energizing! If you’re in Philly, and looking to get a workout in, you should definitely check this place out!!
This is my favorite gym I have ever gone to. The coaches are knowledgeable and the community is super welcoming. I was in the worst shape of my life after covid and I now feel better than ever thanks to the programming and training here at subversus.
Very friendly and helpful front desk. Instructor was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and encouraging. Students were very friendly and inviting. I felt comfortable from the moment I stepped in. Workout was fun and challenging. Facility is well equipped.
