Our comment from FitFit Australia about ActivateFit.Gym:
ActivateFit.Gym, located in Ultimo, Australia, is a vibrant and welcoming gym that provides a fantastic community atmosphere for fitness enthusiasts. Many users praise the friendly and helpful staff, creating a supportive environment for members. The gym boasts three well-equipped floors with a variety of modern equipment and functional spaces, making it suitable for different workout preferences.
Members have noted the cleanliness of the facilities and appreciate the broad range of classes offered, including new reformer Pilates sessions that are engaging and well-received. The gym also offers competitive rates for UTS students and staff, adding to its appeal as an affordable fitness option.
However, there are areas that require attention. Some feedback indicates that a portion of the equipment is aging and in need of maintenance, particularly lockers that have been reported as malfunctioning. Additionally, many users expressed a desire for extended opening hours, especially on weekends, as current hours may not accommodate those with late classes during the week.
Despite occasional concerns regarding staff attitude and equipment availability during peak hours, the warm community atmosphere and diverse workout options make ActivateFit.Gym a recommended choice for individuals looking to stay active in a friendly setting.

ActivateFit.Gym: Opinions
Negative experience: The front desk was not helpful.
Positive experience: Awesome and lovely staffs. Love the vibe. Room for Improvement - Just need to either upgrade new equipments or fix the broken ones. - Closing time needs to be extended if possible
Negative experience: it's so easy to sign in but they will make it really hard for you guys to cancel membership, not recommend
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Team at the front desk, very friendly. I love the community at UTS
Fantastic experience: 5 stars but please stay open longer on the weekends at least to 7pm
Positive experience: Join the club more than one year. The centre consists 3 floors - G/F (whole floor), M/F (half floor) and L/F (half floor). Equipment is updated and variety. Plenty of personal space. Lockers at Male changing room are insufficient and malfunction for ages, eg, lockers nos. 68, 72, 59, 55. 56. Also, the opening hours on Saturday up to 5:00pm a bit insufficient sometimes, opening hours up to 7:00 pm would be ideal. Women’s Zone is coming but I have some reservations:- perhaps at specific time zone is more appropriate. Based on my visual survey on 22/5/2024, Wed afternoon 2:30 pm, the usage of the centre: GF : 18 (5 female) LGF : 8 (3 female) MF : 1 (0 female) i.e. total 27 members amongst 8 are female. On 24/5/2024, Fri afternoon, 1:25pm: LGF: 6 male and 3 female GF: 16 male and 4 female MF: 1 male and 1 female Total 23 male and 8 female. On 25/5/2024, Sat afternoon, 2:40 pm: Total 18 male and 5 female. On 27/5/2024, Mon afternoon, 13:25 pm: LGF: 6 male and 1 female G/F: 5 male and 3 female M/F: 1 male and 1 female Total 12 male and 5 female Excluding reformer zone, changing rooms and functional zone.

Positive experience: Having change partition section would be nice
Positive experience: $23 for a casual visit. Equipment is a little old but there is lots of it. So that's great! Also quite a few different functional rooms. Eg spin bikes, stretching and circuit rooms. There are lockers in the change rooms which you can use free of charge. Lots of space and not too busy.
Thanks for your review Marianna!
Positive experience: nice gym
Positive experience: Nice reception bros, nice equipments, nice guys and girls created nice atmosphere at gym
Fantastic experience: Great gym, helpful and friendly staff. I got 14 days for $14, excellent deal!
Positive experience: I can see it has been flagged by other members before as well. Can the staff do something about the Chinese trainer (Shen Chen) and his group who are constantly shouting? They act like they own the gym...on top of shouting non-stop, they leave their towels on machines that they use once every 15min!!! I left that gym before because of those guys and I am sure I am not the only one in that case...
Fantastic experience: Great gym. Clean and up to date. Nice people and helpful staff.

Fantastic experience: A great gym with a wide range of equipment and friendly staff. Really good rates for UTS students and staff. Several lifting platforms and squat racks. It's quieter in the morning and during the day.
Thank you John!
Negative experience: I'd give negative stars if I could. I had been training there for two weeks on a 14-for-14 offer, then paid for a year's membership in full. On the ninth day (so, you know, two days after my cooling-off period ended) I was informed that my footwear - the same footwear I had been training in every day for three weeks - was inappropriate, and that I would not be allowed to continue to train in it. Not that it was in breach of the terms of my membership - it wasn't - or any policies they had in place - also not the case. Just that I was no longer allowed to train in those shoes. So I emailed management asking for a refund, on the grounds that we could have had the same discussion any time in the preceding three weeks. Yet to receive a response. The decision to refuse me access is unreasonable and unfair, and has no reasonable basis. The failure to do me even the basic courtesy of a response is an insult. negative 7.5 out of ten EDIT: A big shout out to Michael Pang for wasting my time. One very frustrating email exchange later, he has graciously offered to compensate me for the utterly appalling treatment I received with the hilarious offer of an extension of my membership equal to *half* of the time I have already lost. A sort of "pay for twelve months, get negative four for free!" special offer. Do not give these people your money. Really. Just don't.
Hi Kurtis! We're sorry to hear about your experience at ActivateFit.Gym. We would like to investigate this further and find the best outcome for you. Please contact Michael Pang (Gym Manager) at [email protected] or ask for him at the gym reception to have a chat. We look forward to hearing from you.
Positive experience: It is cheap for UTS students but some equipment really need some maintenance
Hi Renato! Thank you for your feedback. We really do appreciate all feedback that allows us to improve our facilities and the experience for our members. In regards to equipment, we replaced and upgraded 12 pieces of equipment at the end of last year, as well as upgraded all the upholstery on the machines that required it. We also put in three new platforms this year as well as new squat racks, and a brand new set of dumbbells. If there was specific equipment that you weren’t happy with, we would love to know so we can address it. Please feel free to email Michael Pang (Gym Manager) on [email protected] or stop by the reception desk at the gym. We can’t wait to see you back in the gym soon!
Fantastic experience: Great gym
Thank you Grace! Hope to see you back in the gym soon.
Fantastic experience: I’ve already used many times. The gym systems and stuff are really good. There’s no problems and when I needed some helps, those respectful stuffs helped me quickly and that’s awesome for me.

Negative experience: Staff are extremely rude and the showers are gross.

Since your review, we have changed cleaning contractors and have new staff. We hope we can make it up to you and welcome you back in the gym again soon!
Positive experience: I tend to go in the mornings - there's enough space for everyone to do what they need. Most people try to just get in and get out (emphasis on most). Haven't had a problem with anyone yet The morning reception staff are really friendly. There's a couple of afternoon staff who aren't though and they really turned me off going for like a month Bring your own towel They could maybe organise the layout of machines a bit better There's a couple broken lockers and shower heads in the changerooms that never seem to get fixed
Thank you L! We appreciate your feedback. Since your review, some of our reception staff have changed, as well as the layout of the gym to adapt to COVID-19 guidelines. We're working on ensuring that the broken lockers and shower heads are fixed and we apologise for the inconvenience that this has caused. We look forward to seeing you back in the gym again soon!
Negative experience: Just paid 10$ to pause my membership. That makes me unhappy so here is your 1 star review. You cannot do it over the phone.

Thank you Ewan! We're happy to hear you're enjoying your time at ActivateFit.Gym. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Negative experience: Been here several years but now its time to find new place. Bossy staff with no common sense. At least 2-3 machines are out of order every time I visit.
Hi Alex! Thank you for your feedback. We're saddened to hear that you've had a negative experience with us.

Fantastic experience: Lovely place with lovely people!
Thank you Kevin! We're happy to hear you're enjoying your time at ActivateFit.Gym. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: Amazing place, easily the best Gym I have ever been with. The staff are super friendly and knowledgable, when I had muscle pains I was given advice which helped me tremendously. There is a good ratio of equipment here, although another flat benchpress couldn't hurt, it can have a few people waiting from time to time. I love having the option of incline, flat and decline. Shout out to Ericka (May not be spelled correctly) and Bjorn for their friendliness and great advice, and for signing me in when I had forgotten my card a few times. Only a few more sessions left until I move, I will definitely miss this place after I change Uni's.
Thank you Elijah! We appreciate your feedback - it's always appreciated to help us improve our facilities and the experience for our members. Despite moving universities, we hope you can visit us again soon!
Fantastic experience: A great place to go:)
Thank you Ninja! Hope to see you back in the gym soon.
Positive experience: Its my gym I love it
Thanks Shayne! We hope to see you in the gym again soon!
Fantastic experience: Affordable, well-equipped, friendly staff
Fantastic experience: Have been going here for years during university. I’ve never had an issue with staff or equipment. Would recommend
Positive experience: Good place
Fantastic experience: Very Friendly staff. Place for a Complete workout. Equipments well looked after. Clean dressing rooms. Friendly patrons too.
Positive experience: Not a bad gym but a lot of equipment is old and not clean.
Negative experience: It was a good Gym until the new Manager ruined it and all the good staff left
Positive experience: Its improved a lot in the last 12 months, good team running the show, friendly and considerate
Fantastic experience: Polite staff, wide range of equipment and an amazing atmosphere!
Negative experience: Very POOR hygiene standards, the management team it’s deleting comments/suggestions for imrovements from the facebook page not the right way to deal with customers in the era of digital trust.
Positive experience: Nice gym. Friendly staff.
Fantastic experience: The staff are very nice and go the extra mile.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic atmosphere ! it's great to be in this friendly environment; the gym is pretty big and offer anything needed and more for a great workout; there are so many classes to choose from every week and the instructors are all fun and engaging! Looking forward to my next workout!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym!!! Wonderful and caring staff members who are enthusiastic about their job. There is a large range of equipment and the classes are fun and engaging. Must give it a go :)
Positive experience: Affordable, good assortment of equipment
Fantastic experience: Really a perfect place for relaxing and exercising.
Fantastic experience: Awesome place to workout. Staff are extremely friendly, and classes are great. It's conveniently located (centre of the city/uni) and the opening times work well around my uni schedule.
Negative experience: This gym needs a code of conduct or etiquette. I left 6 months ago because I couldn't stand the noise - the constant shout ofchinese from customers and trainers. What happen to the mantra of finding your 'zone', concentrating on your breathing and working out? What happened to courtesy and respect for others people's space n time? Anyway - plenty of other places to go. Btw staff r great n classes look impressive; just the gym floor sux.
Positive experience: Decent, well equipped Operating hours could be better
Thanks for your feedback Pranit!
Positive experience: Great equipment - you won't miss anything. Even weightlifting platforms are available. Only the opening hours could be better.
Fantastic experience: I should go more often! Will do as the staff and manager are great.
Negative experience: This business sends unsolicited spam, avoid them.
Positive experience: Remember sat will close at 3 pm, otherwise, their staff would yell at you saying such no shame. Sorry!! I know now.
Fantastic experience: Best gym if you are on limit budget
Positive experience: Good equipments
Fantastic experience: Great equipment good staff
Fantastic experience: A great place, a great team and awesome members! Looking forward to some exciting additions in 2017. More info available on Facebook.
Positive experience: Go Good people
Positive experience: Good gym for weights and cardio, but not much point when it's only 9am-3pm Saturday and not open at all on Sundays! When a public membership is $900 a year, it really should be 24/7.
Negative experience: On 9th of may 2016 Monday. I visited this gym following a friend of mine who has membership. Front desk ( a weird looking curly hair tall guy and an Indian lady) lied to me about their free trial policy. It clearly stated on their website there is a free trail when u turn up.the curly hair guy not only told me no they've never done that but also told me and my friend to workout some where else really offensively. I live near the facility and was looking for place to join. I hope the management will look into this matter cuz these 2 might just turned down a lot of potential customers of yours. Please note there are plenty of other gym in the city. Me and my friend would like to get an apology as well
Negative experience: Great fun with ample space and all necessary equipment. The main down side is the short opening hours. Especially on the weekend where its even closed on Sundays.
Positive experience: Great gym! But its opening hours are disappointing, closing at 3pm on Saturday and not open at all on Sunday :(
Negative experience: The gym closes extremely early. During the week it closes at 9 pm and considering it is mainly a gym for students this is way to early that since many classes end at 8 pm. Plus, on Saturdays it opens just in the morning and on Sundays it is closed: this is ridiculous! And even more ridiculous is the fact that from the 20th December to the 1st of January it is completely closed: where should people work out in this period? For the rest it is quite good, machines not new (some of them are quite old) but still working and well maintained. There is everything a common gym user needs. If you are looking for a gym with flexible opening hours you should definitely avoid Activate UTS.
Negative experience: Equipment levels fine but the patronising attitude of management and trainers is mind numbing. This is the only gym I have trained in that won't allow the free use of kettlebells unless supervised. Ditto any modified equipment, like an artificially raised bench to do crunches on. And don't bother complaining: you'll just be told you're a troublemaker and invited, in no undertain terms, to find another place to train. So I did!
Positive experience: Gym is pretty good by city standards, not too expensive and relatively quiet meaning the machines are usually free, and a fair amount of machines with only a few exclusions.
Fantastic experience: The newly refurbished gym is amazing!
