I live on the island and I am so happy that Hayden Island Fitness is here. I can walk from our condo in just minutes and put in 30-60 minutes each day. Since February I got serious about my health as I was just diagnosed with diabetes which has a rich and deep history in my family. I was determined to take care of this without medication or shots. Thanks to HIF I have lost 25lbs and at last physical my lab work showed my numbers have returned to normal...no longer diabetic. However, Im not done yet as I know that dang diabetes cloud will continue to hang over me. And thats why I am truly grateful for HIF. I rotate my days with strength and cardio training. Each area is well set-up and equipped to meet my needs. I especially like the new ability to stream to the screens at the cardio machines. Watching programs of interest to me keeps me on the machine longer and I spend less time glued to the clock. The weight and circuit room is well equipped and also suits my needs well. I admit that Im usually in there alone and when another person or two comes in it can crowd up, but never as bad as a 24-Hour type of popular gym. The recently expanded upstairs court, rock wall and free weights is another example of the owners desire to improve and meet the growing and changing needs and wishes of its members. Finally, though I have not taken a class from the owner/manager, Troy has always taken the time to explain, demonstrate and suggest improvements and changes to my use of equipment and overall fitness program. Once again, thanks for being here, Troy. Your gym is a reflection of you and your commitment to improving and maintaining the health and well being of your clients and you do it at a very reasonable cost. Looking forward to many more months and years of health, fitness and visiting your facility.

I purchased 2- 1 day passes which I used a week apart. The following issues were presented to the owner as a friendly written note with a subject line of , "An outsiders view of some issues That may need addressed". The owner responded By throwing away the note in front of me and said every gym has maintenance issues and that if I didnt like the condition of his gym I could leave. Here are some of the things that were on that list. 1. The Squat machine cable was broke rendering it unusable. 2. The cable on 1 of the 2 adjustable cable systems on the "Smith-like" machine broke loose while I was performing a seated row rep. 3. Some of the machines have pulleys that either need lubricated or replaced making the motion of the machine feel like something is binding. 4. 1 of the mounted pull-up bars downstairs and 1 upstairs are pulling away (separating) from the wall they are mounted to. 5. If you want 50lb+ dumbbells you must use a un-user friendly adjustable set. Right before I left I was told the upstairs part of the gym was for personal training and the owner just "let me use it". Unfortunately that is where the majority of the free weights are located so if you are into strength training like myself you may or may not have access. Granted Im not the typical clientele of this gym but given the condition of the equipment and the hostility I felt from the owner when pointing some safety and non-safety issues, I would not recommend this gym to the average user.

Well to start with Ive find myself overloaded each week because something always pops up unexpected to make your work day a bit longer than expected , hayden island fitness is 24 hrs it has every thing I need, I cant do the lift or push the weight like I use too hayden island fitness has equipment that I can use and know Im getting better results than I have had with weights in several years. , MR WEST and his knowledge of finesse and the body is truly remarkable, I weighed 189 lbs in less than 4 weeks I weighed 140 do to health conditions, with in 9 months of working with and doing MR WESTS program I was back up to 180 lbs all the while dealing with vertigo and the loss of energy, my confidence and spirt came back. If not for hayden island fitness and the founder, owner Id be living on disability laying around reliving my glory dsys.and you will not find a place with the prices that hayden island fitness has, plus its secure and safe place at all hrs. Check it out for yourself and if you want to get in shape and know nothing about working out his training and the info posted around the fitness center will get you started. That 7 day trial is waiting for you.

The best kept secret in Portland is the Hayden Island Fitness. Nestled between Double Tree Hotel and the expensive waterfront condos, the fitness club remain affordable, for the amount of machines, and the cozy ambience that greets members. The cool breeze music, and the relatively safe environment makes the place ideal for family workout. I particularly like the punching bags, and the cadio machines. I am way into my one year membership, and I cant wait to renew again. The owner Troy is a marine vet, and a superb personal trainer..

Ive been going here for quite some time and I love it. Equipment is set up perfectly so you can get a great workout. The upper floor is my jam...It has everything a heavy lifter could need. Troy has made my experience both enjoyable and beneficial by offering great advice here and there. Chromecast on the tv monitors makes it easy to play youtube, hulu, netflix or Plex Media Server (streaming downloaded content from your home) all while getting a decent sweat.
