Anytime Fitness Earlwood

Fantastic experience: The feedback here is controversial regarding the new renovation and as a girl I thought I was bad til I read reviews on here from actual grown men acting like drama queens with their high expectations. Ive been at this gym for years so I think my opinion is valid here. Yes the new layout is different and maybe wasn’t thought about properly I agree. It might need time to get used to, yes the new area is a bit more crammed than the old one but you’re on here acting like you physically can’t train anymore because of it (You sure can)! Although the new layout is a little questionable it’s really not that deep because I can still get a cracker sesh done and in my opinion it looks/feels better to train in regardless of the layout. Whether the machines are new or just refurbished, who actually cares? what matters is they work and you can still get your pump, plus you can’t tell me the new lighting and mirrors aren’t a great addition because let me tell you I’ve discovered muscles I never knew I had which makes me more pumped to train here. Anyway it’s better that you negative bunch just stay away from this gym since it’s such a inconvenience that you had to go out of your way and publicly cry about it when you could’ve just taken that energy and used it for a sesh here since nothing besides your silly expectations are stopping you from chasing a pump here you princesses! Here are some additional notes to anyone confused about the negative reviews since I’ve trained here for so long: - The old vertical smith machine didn’t even go all the way down, was rusty and rough so that’s enough to say it was garbage so I’m glad that’s been replaced with a new one! - Glute extension machine gone? I’ve been training here for over 5 years and I’ve probably only seen that glute extension machine used 4 times. It would sit there and collect dust so be glad it’s gone because imagine how much more ‘cramped’ the new gym would be with that useless machine still sitting there taking up space?? - One less squat rack is no big deal it’s not like this gym gets jam packed and you have to wait for machines?? As for the J hooks, I squat and I’ve seen others squatting since the renovation, none of us need J hooks you little drama lama - The old lifting platform falls under the same category as the glute extension machine, collected dust and wasted space since it barely got used. Go to a powerlifting gym since you take that platform so seriously I’m sure they have plenty for you - ‘Hazardous walkway to get to the toilets and bags’? If you put as much thought into this one as you did with your comment about it you’ll realise that actually it’s not just the walkway but the whole gym that is a hazard since there are heavy weights everywhere (not just Earlwood but every gym) why do you think they come with safety rules (wear closed shoes etc)! - Lack of storage? I’ve never seen all cubes full so you must be at the wrong gym! Also no storage near the entrance? Why are you at the GYM when you can’t even be bothered to WALK a few more meters to put your bag away? come on how are you even motivated to train at that point (same thing for having one water fountain, it’s literally not hard to walk a few extra meters for water) - Cable machine upstairs crammed next to stairs yeah I do agree here too but instead of crying I usually just walk to a different cable since there’s like 6 others. At the end of the day it’s not that deep, this gym has everything you need regardless of the minor inconveniences, it doesn’t get crazy busy here either which is great since the space is smaller. So just take a big breath when you come in, walk a few more extra meters for your bags and water, chase that pump, have a sneaky flex in that mirror and leave! It’s so easy!!!

Negative experience: The revolted gym has one less squat rack; And furthermore 1 of those 3 squat racks don’t have J hooks so you can’t squat. Press F to pay respects

Negative experience: Review of Earlwood Anytime Fitness: A Complete Disaster The newly refurbished Earlwood Anytime Fitness is an outright disappointment, falling far below the standard of not just Anytime Fitness locations but gyms in general. The previous layout, while mediocre, at least had some functionality and logical flow. The current setup is a total downgrade in every conceivable way: - Zero Lifting Platforms: This is inexcusable. Most Anytime Fitness locations have at least 2-3 platforms, with newer refits offering even more (Marrickville has 6!). Earlwood now has none. - Illogical Layout: The space is divided into random, disconnected sections with no rhyme or reason to the placement of machines. Equipment is scattered haphazardly, creating a confusing and inefficient workout experience. - Hazardous Walkway Design: The removal of the walkway to the back (toilets, water, bag racks) means gym-goers must now walk through the free weights area, weaving around people lifting heavy dumbbells. This is a major safety hazard and a recipe for injuries. - Lack of Storage: There’s no storage near the entrance, leaving members scrambling for space to stow their belongings. - Limited Water Access: Only one water source exists, inconveniently placed at the far back of the gym. - Poor Use of Space: A cable machine is crammed right up against the stairs, further highlighting the lack of planning in this redesign. - Reused, Outdated Equipment: Despite the "refit," almost nothing innovative or new has been introduced—just the same old gear recycled in a worse layout. For such a large space, the gym utterly fails to provide the improved experience expected from an Anytime Fitness upgrade. Every other nearby Anytime location—Belfield, Bexley, Marrickville, Wolli Creek—offers a vastly superior experience. Earlwood's new design is not just disappointing; it’s a step backward and a blatant disregard for members' safety and satisfaction. Save yourself the frustration and go literally anywhere else.

Negative experience: Before the renovation in September 2024 the gym was 5/5 but now I can’t give it more than 1/5. Whoever designed the new gym layout needs to be on some medication and fired. - The machines are so cramped next to each other. - They got rid of the vertical smith machine and only an angle smith machine. - They got rid of the glute extension machine. - The water bubbler was giving warm water. - There’s no aerobic step or it’s gone missing after this renovation. In my opinion the gym was better before this renovation took place. Also, I’m pretty sure the people who trained at other AF during the Reno closure will go back to that AF once they are unsatisfied with this renovation. This is a loss as this gym was excellent PRIOR to this renovation.

Fantastic experience: ★★★★★ I couldn’t be more impressed with the recent renovations at Anytime Fitness Earlwood! The new equipment is state-of-the-art, and the layout has been thoughtfully designed to create a more spacious and efficient workout environment. The staff are as friendly and helpful as ever, and it’s clear they’ve gone above and beyond to make the gym even better. Whether you’re an athlete or just starting your fitness journey, this is the perfect place to achieve your goals. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Such a good gym! Always clean, has plenty of machines and equipment and the staff are friendly

Negative experience: The drinking water was warm and the gym looks like the dinosaurs have stopped visiting the gym anymore.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Love the staff even more ❤️❤️ They all deserve a pay rise ❤️❤️❤️

Fantastic experience: so good i love it

Fantastic experience: staff memerberz are so kind and loving

Fantastic experience: This is a cozy gym with great staff. Have been going here for a while and really appreciate the gym being tidy.

Negative experience: The staff here appear nice but the company as a whole is borderline on par with a scam. I joined in Feb 2023, still being billed to this day as I tried to cancel the membership but I was told "we can't actually cancel the membership." When at sign-up I was told this is a non-contractual membership. I have been also billed with multiple late fees and hidden costs. You have to call them every 3months to tell them you want to put your membership on hold however they still charge you. Have called them multiple times, however they often don't pick up and call after you have been charged the membership fee. I know $22.95 a week isn't alot of money. But it's something you shouldn't be paying if you're not using the services. If a business uses such scam tactics to milk money from it's customers through hidden charges and fees, and lock-in contracts then it's a shameful reflection of how they operate. I have escalated this with a complaint to Fair Trading, they will now deal with this matter. I urge anyone else having issues as such to do the same, this is not how a honest business should operate, definitely below standard in terms of Fair Trading and in line with Australian Law.

Fantastic experience: Alec and Theresa has been so accommodating ever I since I first joined. I really enjoy going to this gym and has a lot of equipment. Keen for the renos soon.

Fantastic experience: Amazing team here at earlwood! Everyone is super friendly and the environment is very clean

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff best gym in earlwood

Positive experience: While the expected standard of a commercial gym is usually not very high, this gym gets many things right but a few frustrating things wrong. The good: a pretty decent selection of machines. for legs we have leg presses, hack squats, adductors and abductor machines, lying hamstrings, booty builder, standing and seated calf raises. All great things for success. There are plenty of adjustable benches, cables and an upstairs area for more space. There is plenty of mirrors up and downstairs, the bathrooms are always clean and smell good. The weights are mostly clean and in decent condition, however here we come to some cons. For whatever reason, their free weights sections are always completely disorganised. I cant tell whether the local members are too stupid to return weights in the right order or if staff only spend 10 minutes a week reorganising weights to the squat racks- but i feel like leaving the gym after doing 2 laps of the gym just looking for 2x 5kg plates to do my proper warmup progression. And its not like they dont have enough plates, there is usually plenty of plates stacked on the leg presses, but underneath all that is the 2.5kgs and 5kgs. See the attached photo for the state of the 3rd squat rack on a Sunday, though it might be understandable due to limited weekend staff. Local parking is always available but you always will have to cross 2 lanes of light traffic to get to the gym. If you want to do straight bar pullups, there is a section upstairs with mirrors and boxes to boost you, as well as a selection of bands to help progression. However if you want to practice muscleups there is not enough headroom -a small gripe for a limited demographic that can do them. I also wish they had more grip variations of the 20kg bars, but there is always one available at least. The acoustics and music is good- But Dont even get me started on the AI voice that instructs users to “return weights and no towel no workout”- perfectly reasonable requests which feel oddly dystopian when the AI tries to make “human” sounds. overall the gym is decent once you get past the disorganised free weights and plates. You will get a great leg workout after finding everything you need. However if possible I recommend checking out Hurlstone Park Anytime where despite being more popular, their machines and weight selection outclass Earlwood.

Fantastic experience: I really like training at anytime, it has everything I need, all the equipment and it's never crowded! the staff are friendly, Samanta and Alessandro are always smiling and ready to help!

Positive experience: Friendly staff, specious and clean gym. They are just more expensive than nearby gyms especially the key activation and joining fees.

Fantastic experience: I loooove it here and I love how nice samantha is! Very very recommended to everyone who wants to exercise regularly

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great staff! Samantha is the best manager

Fantastic experience: Friendly gym , has good variety of equipment , staff are amazing and helpful . They have a PT that works there which was good for when I started at the gym . It is my favourite gym to go too .

Fantastic experience: One of the best Anytime Gyms I have ever been too. Spacious gyms, lots of equipment and lovely staff and trainers.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym! Staff are welcoming and the place is very neat and tidy, all the equipment is stacked away nicely. Love the bathroom space :)

Fantastic experience: Easy 5 stars This gym is very clean, even the toilets. All machined look like they're there for a short time only. Plenty of equipment if you are looking for another handle for cable machines. Very spacious and also very kind people over there. The staff are helpful and cheerful, motivate you ro come back in. They have promotions, free classes and the music is at a very good level, not too loud like in other gyms. Just atthe right level so you can have normal conversations. Recently they had a survey and I pointed out that soap in the bathrooms was missing. The next day soap was there. Anytime really want you to enjoy the time in the gym.

Positive experience: Today I went to Anytime Earlwood, passed by office room, few people there, but no one was interested to greet me with welcome or good afternoon. When I started my workout a trainer approached me asking if I had towels, I informed I did not, so he said it is gym policy to use it. As it was my first time there, I informed that I always wipe after use equipments in other places, he said even wiping it, I need a towel to train there. I asked to bring next time, it was accepted by him. From my point of view it sounds unpleasant to first interaction with a client. Half of people inside the gym had no towels at the moment, if you go to any other anytime fitness it will be the same scenario. What is the point clean a equipment with a sweaty towel or even cover it? is it more effective than use something to clean it? The size of gym is good, plenty options of equipments, but weights were messy, dumbbells damaged, floor not clean, drinking fountain no enough water pressure to use it. If you want to force your clients to strict follow the policy, please provide us the same level of service.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym and people, would highly recommend joining

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Anytime Fitness for many years. I recently moved into the area and have started training at Earlwood. This gym has everything I need from weights, running and boxing and the staff are very friendly and extremely helpful. All in a neat and clean gym environment. This is a great all round gym and I would recommend you give it a try. And when I am on the move, I can train at any other Anytime Fitness Gym all over Australia and the world.

Fantastic experience: The new gym is so good! Clean, modern and friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with a wide range of equipment and super friendly and helpful staff! Best anytime

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym, very spacious and clean. Love the friendly members and team here!

Negative experience: I have literally been trying to cancel my membership for months and haven’t received a reply from anyone. The entire time I’ve been trying to cancel my membership I’ve still been charged, this is absolutely ridiculous and I shouldn’t have to chase down for close to 3 months to get someone to cancel my membership for me. It should be easier to get in touch with staff, instead of having a mobile number that no one ever answers and an email address no one ever replies to. What makes it worse is that the only way to cancel my membership is through this gym. Do not recommend.

Negative experience: Small gym, good equipment but a small range. Always busy and staff will make you feel super pressured. I hate how much I get stopped by staff and was pressured to give a 5 star review of the gym. Staff member stopped me to give a review and reached over to tap 5 stars on my phone before I even had the chance to give a proper review. I regret signing up, expensive and not worth the price

Fantastic experience: This is the first gym I’ve been to and I love it!

Negative experience: worst gym I've ever seen. they force you to follow a long term contract with many terms without specifying, if you don't read carefully you will be trapped. I signed a contract with a fee of $27/week while the better gyms are only about $15-16. registration cost $130 and key fee $100 is too expensive while most gyms are Free registration or key only 30-50$. if you cancel the contract in 7 days you will lose 100$ of your key money without them telling you in advance

Fantastic experience: Awesome staff, always clean, great range of machines and overall a good gym

Fantastic experience: The staff are always so welcoming & kind as soon as you walk through the door, clean open space & plenty of variety in gym equipment!

Fantastic experience: Only here because Sam and Jacinta are so awesome. If it was anyone else, the service wouldn't be the same.

Fantastic experience: This gym is massive compared to some in the area, good range of equipment and lovely people. Sam, alec, Teresa clearly care about their members and their gym and I would 100% recommend joining here. Staff and members are lovely and the gym is always clean too. Good crowd.

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience !! Really great staff. Especially Samantha (club manager) very friendly and professional. Would recommend signing up for sure !

Negative experience: I was a member at anytime fitness earlwood, but recently I have transferred over to a different anytime fitness. This being due to the fact that my membership fee was increased without any notice. Upon realising this I tried to negotiate the amount with the staff but they were rude and dismissive. I was told that the price was fixed, however there were no upgrades to the gym that would warrant an increase.

Fantastic experience: Best gym, very friendly staff and great knowledgeable trainers!

Positive experience: Huge gym, lots of equipment and heavy weights. There's an upstairs section for more agility type stuff, prioritizes weights rather than cardio machines which is very nice compared to ther gyms. Nice people, great to talk to. But be warned, some days and hours it might be completely packed with school junkies

Positive experience: I don’t like 2 floor gym. No towels available and hairdryer etc.. like other branches. It has most of the equipments but some are missing

Negative experience: Really bad customer service, there was this blonde young lady that was really passive aggressive. Instead of trying to convince me on joining the gym, she was making me feel guilty about my life style. I work in construction about 10 hours a day, her answer about that was “I also work about 10 hours”. Darling, in case you get to read this, when I got there you were in the office with the aircon running, in addition to that her response about the $100 fob key was “if you don’t like the gym you can leave after 7 days trial, but you will lose the money of the key” It’s not about the money at all, it’s just the bad customer service this girl gives and makes people feel bad about their life style, if people think about joining a gym, this girl will just make them run away from it

Fantastic experience: Great gym environment and awesome staffs!

Fantastic experience: Great vibes, Great equipment, well maintained by the lovely staff no meat head heads 10/10 experience would recommend to give it a shot for the New Year’s resolution

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, well equipped, good atmosphere, friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Great Gym with great staff ! Lots of equipment so never waiting to get your sets in. Clean tidy and not too busy !

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area!! The staff are all beautiful and friendly, the members are also friendly and kind to each other. Extremely comfortable environment to train in and they have every piece of equipment or machine you’ll need guaranteed. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: amazing and friendly staff, so lovely and genuine.. they are constantly on the gym floor packing up weights at least every hour which is why the gym is so clean. the girls push you and motivate you to be the best version of yourselves. they clearly care about their work. BEST GYM IN EARLWOOD would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Very good gym I’ve shredded lots of weight

Fantastic experience: Anytime Fitness Earlwood is by far the best Anytime Fitness gym that I have trained at in Sydney. It's bright, spacious and always clean and tidy. There is plenty of equipment to chose from over two floors even when the gym is filled to capacity. Sam the Gym Manager is awesome. She always has a happy and positive attitude when she greets me "hello" and when I leave. The staff are friendly and the gym vibe is cool but respectful. I highly recommend this gym.

Fantastic experience: These guys are amazing. Friendly staff, great equipment. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I can always count on the staff to give me what I need, they are also willing to take suggestions for improving access to equipment. Fantastic customer service, very helpful. Glad to be apart of this gym :)

Fantastic experience: 24hrs, friendly staff, always clean and the great benefit of 2 floors which has plenty of machines and room to train.

Negative experience: This gym is very expensive for no apparent reason my gym member ship went up for no apparent reason. I went from being charged 19 dollars to 25 dollars a week. When i contacted the staff i was lied to the staff i quote saying "each gym had to rise their membership values, due to inflation". So to double check i called other anytime fitness within my area and i had come to learn this was not true. This whole experience nearly made me cancel my whole membership of 2 years and switch over to fit and fast. Thankfully the staff at Marrickville anytime fitness sorted this issue out for me. Would not recommended any fitness lover to come here.

Negative experience: The staff was too lazy... even she blonde hair doesn't know Members Wifi password lol.. never stand up.. watching phone at all..

Fantastic experience: A relatively large gym with all the weights and machines you could dream of, i.e. Multiple squat racks and benches to accommodate all the gymbros. Upper level also has gear for crossfitters. Gym is usually packed in the morning and early evenings. Showers and restrooms are typically clean more times than not. Update: Decently ventilated during the summer, though you'll have to remember to continually switch on the timed wall-mounted fans every 15mins or so

Fantastic experience: Good workout environment, friendly, supportive staff and great music!

Positive experience: Lovely facility. However, it needs sanitary wipes on the ground floor. Paper hankies and.spray do not cut it

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend Anytime Fitness Earlwood, it’s a friendly and clean gym to go to. The staff are amazing. I had a great time in my first class with Sam as our trainer. Sam pushes us to our limits and has the best interest in our goals.

Super Clean and organised, larger than some other anytime fitness gyms.
