I have been a member of Powerhouse gym in Birmingham for close to three years. I find it to be Birminghams little secret. Its very conveniently located in downtown Birmingham directly across the street from one of the city-owned garages where you can park for two hours at no cost. The cleanliness of a health club is very important to me and, in this regard, Powerhouse of Birmingham is certainly above par. I have been a member of clubs that did not maintain their equipment, but, this club is not one of them. I also like the fact that they use top-of-the-line equipment. I dont care for the "big-box" health clubs that lack intimacy. Powerhouse is cozy, yet, has everything I need which includes weight machines and a wide variety of cardio equipment. One other thing I like about the club is that the people who work there are professional and friendly and there has been very little turnover in full-time personnel in the time I have been a member. My only regret is not joining sooner.

This is a gym thats run how it should be. They take care of the things from big to small. My brother goes there also religiously and told me a story that wasnt surprising because of the family atmosphere there. He has 2 kids, lives 5 miles away, and forgot his shorts. Realized this when he got to the front desk and begrudgingly started to walk out as others were walking in. The front desk attendee called out and when my brother explained his predicament he was shocked when the guy offered him a pair of his gym shorts. He declined because he didnt want to take the guys shorts from his bag when he needed them for his own workout. But then he accepted the very kind offer when the guy told him that "I can take the day off, but you are on all the time with two kids and a wife to go home to." I think you pay for what you get at most gyms and at powerhouse you get a lot more.

Hard to beat Powerhouse when it comes to gyms in the area. The gym is clean, and the equipment and weights are in great shape. Powerhouse does an awesome job staffing this place, everyone working the front desk is incredibly helpful and they really want to get to know their members and their goals. The yoga teachers are all top-class as well, and the classes they offer are very beneficial. The importance of staff is huge, without dedicated employees there would probably be a much more corporate feel, but you dont get that here. I really cant say enough good things about the place, definitely worth checking out.

The only gym for a Birmingham resident that is close to home and isnt packed (e.g. LA Fitness, Lifetime). For myself, the price off-set by company gym reimbursement making it fair for the location and amenities. For cardio, weights, basic machines, and general people who mind their own business - this is perfect.For the most part, the equipment I prefer to use (free weights, bench, treadmill, cable machine) are all generally available during peak hours. My only complaint: The locker room shower doors are basically see-through.

I love this gym. I am strictly a class participant and do not work out individually. Each and every instructor has been excellent - friendly, professional, and always concerned about safety and technique. Its small enough to make it personal and not a ware house of machines and bodies. We are consistently greeted with a friendly hello upon arrival and leave with a wish for a nice evening when we leave. Always clean too.

Powerhouse novi is over double the size of this location and also has way better amenities including hottub/pool, basketball court and cafe but Birmingham charges over two times more than novi. There only reasoning is the location and that theyre "higher class" which makes no sense because the gym is not that nice. I would choose LA fitness, fitness 19 or Royal oak gym Over this.

The things I love about this GYM.... 1. It is clean 2. Huge variety of well kept equipment 3. Yoga classes - I like that they have a lunchtime yoga class scheduled. 4. The proximity to my office allows me to actually get off my butt, walk 2 blocks and get some exercise 5. Employee know my name and are always in a great mood.

Powerhouse Birmingham is a great place to work out! The facilities and equipment are state of the art. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The gym attracts an affable clientele who mind their own business and are there for one thing - to work out! Five big stars!

Great location, clean and good equipment but too many people on their cell phones. They have a policy against using them on the gym floor but they dont enforce it.
