Powerhouse Gym

I’ve only been once and will definitely be back! This hidden gem is only $1 cash only, no change and while you get what you pay for equipment is dated, bathrooms only, no locker rooms/showers I was surprised by the amount of equipment offered! Plus there are a variety of classes on their schedule that look like they have significant attendance. Looking forward to saving $ by canceling my gym membership!

These days it’s totally free, which is awesome. Airdyne bikes, concept towers, self-powered treadmills, lots of cable machines, tractor tires, kettle bells, free weights, squat racks, battle ropes, a big open space, pretty much everything you could want to get in a workout no matter what your goals are. Only critique is the hours, for a facility that definitely strives for maximum inclusion they are only open 10-1 and 2-6 Monday thru Friday. What about Chattanoogans who work inflexible 9-5 jobs? It would be great to provide them access too. If it were open 7-7 with 1 hour break during the day and limited hours one weekend day all Chattanoogans could partake in the awesomeness. Schedule works for me but I’ve invited several people who could not make it work with their schedule. Everyone is cool and friendly, very diverse crowd ranging from competitive athletes to everyday people looking to get a workout in. Staff is very helpful and friendly. It’s great the city provides this amazing service to the community!

It only costs a dollar each time you go. No contracts, no memberships. Equipment is a little old but for a dollar you can't beat it. Plus they offer classes which again, is only $1

Staff very personable. It's not overcrowded. As a woman I've never felt uncomfortable and I can focus on my workouts.

This is the dirtyest, nastiest, most grimey, best place to get a workout. Ralph Aaron is easily the most experienced trainer in a 100 mile radius. In fact your trainer has probably spied on him to steal his mojo. 1$ and free classes if your tough enough.

The place is dated however you only pay $1 for entrance. If you follow the hours when people aren't there the most, you'll get in and get out. Win Win.

Chattanooga institution! Formally known as the Powerhouse Gym. I have been working out here since 98. It's not the most expansive or modern but for $1 it gets the job done.

I've actually been going there for about 7 years since I moved back from Memphis I love the people they are so friendly and the trainers are awesome highly recommended

I believe that it would help if they have staff to help those that are unexperience and trying to figure out what's what but overall it was a great time with Chattanooga fitness center

I hate the Powerhouse is close. The best place to go and exercise! I will be glad when the Powerhouse open back up
