Thrive Gym

I live out of town and every time I come to Iowa City to visit family I drop in at Thrive. Cleanest gym I’ve ever been to, smart equipment choices, good layout. Also plenty of space to get your workout in even if there are several other people there at the same time. Visiting or a resident I recommend Thrive Gym!

The BEST gym I’ve ever been apart of! This gym is kept so clean and has everything I could want, including free lockers and massive private bathrooms. All of the staff I’ve interacted with has been so friendly and kind. I feel very at home here. Coming to thrive has become the best part of my day! I can’t recommend this place enough!!

There is a lot to like about this gym if you are a weightlifter . Dumbbells that go up to 120lb's , 2 calf machines , hip sled and a lot of other nice equipment . They have really nice individual bathrooms too .

I am very disappointed as I previously heard very positive things about this gym and I was hoping to become a member. Unfortunately, I’ve been hearing there has been an increase in racist actions, lack of valuing employees, and a decrease in classes due to wrestling mats/lack of ability to use equipment. I started at Performance in North Liberty and their classes are great and it feels so much more inclusive.

One of the best gyms I've been a part of. Variety of equipment and awesome staff!!! Very clean, they have a sauna and smoothie bar. Exceeded my expectations and has helped me in my weight loss journey!

This gym rocks! Tina and Marsha are the bomb! The entire staff is super friendly and the gym is always very clean. Tons of free classes and coaches are available for just about everything you could imagine. The price is very competitive with everyone in the area but you get far more bang for your buck! Would highly recommend for anyone looking to get away from the insanely crowded gyms downtown Iowa City. Smoothies rock!

I really like how quiet and relaxed the gym is. Great individual showers The place is clean. Well organized. Great value.

I just joined at the end of May! I love this gym! It is amazing. So much open space to do functional workouts my favorite Everyone is nice!! It is clean. It’s so nice that i really look forward to going. They make working out and getting in shape fun and enjoyable.

Great gym, abundant equipment, open space and excellent staff. It's nice to have private bathrooms to change/shower and many lockers for use at no extra cost. The cleaning staff keeps the whole facility very clean and immaculate. There are tires to flip, peg boards to climb, many benches, squat racks, sand bags, sleds, free weights and more. If you're looking to do some light training, heavy lifting, yoga classes, boxing, group training, personal training - this is the place for you. I've been to 5 other gyms in the area and this one beats them all. They do not serve pizza or donuts but they do have a pretty good smoothie bar

I really enjoy the positive vibe, and staff energy! Their machines are wonderful and there are lots of fun colors too. This is one of the best gyms I have ever been too. We keep coming back!
