Hi Evolution Gym — Attraction in Baja California Sur

If you are interested in a real bodybuilding gym, this is the only one in Cabo San Lucas. They have a lot of other things such as jiu jitsu, aerial for kids, functional training, calisthenics and a big "jungle gym" area. Lots of cardio too. But as I am focused on bodybuilding, I will stick with this aspect. I have been training here since 2017. There is a mix of new and "old school" equipment and it seems that they haven't stopped bringing in "new" (to us) stuff all the time. Nothing is ever broken for any length of time and they keep up on the upholstery. Maybe not a big deal for some, but nothing screams lack of care and maintenance like a bunch of cracked upholstery and duct tape. Clean? There is not a time that I have been in the gym where someone wasn't cleaning, somewhere. Hi Evolution is at the end of a dirt road and, like everything in Cabo, can be dusty. But the staff make great efforts to keep everything clean. They have stations throughout the gym with clean rags and disinfectant solution. Of course, not everyone uses them, like most gyms anywhere, but they make a concerted effort to promote the culture of cleanliness. I have trained all over the world and this is by far the cleanest gym I have ever been in.

Some of these negative reviews....wow! Yes, it is expensive compared to gyms in the USA. But it isn't the most expensive in Cabo. It IS the best equipped though. Most of us who "live the lifestyle" of fitness can easily justify and accept the expense to train in a place that is conducive to getting a good training session in. No air conditioning makes mid-summer workouts a challenge but they purchased huge mobile swamp coolers last year. Seems they care.

I am a low maintenance member. I need nothing from the staff, I don't need their juice bar, supplements or drinks, but they have them if that is what you want or need. I clean up after myself and try my best to not get in the way of others trying to work out. Like every "fitness center" I have been in the USA, this isn't reciprocal for most people at the gym. Trying to think of any gym I have been anywhere that allows you to train with no shoes or shirt. Most places don't even allow flip-flops or other open toed shoes.

I feel lucky that I have the opportunity to train here. I can get in a workout anywhere and can pursue my goals without such a well equipped gym, but why would I want to if a place like Hi Evolution is available to me? Not that it matters but, I am also a "white boy" and not once has this ever surfaced with anything...

This is my go-to gym whenever I’m in Cabo. They have everything you need and more. More of a focus on weightlifting but there is a cardio room on the second floor. Super clean gym and very friendly staff. Indoor/outdoor access and high ceilings with big fans everywhere. I always leave this place dripping sweat. Get a great pump every time I go. Day pass is about 200 pesos / 10 USD.

All you need to know is this is where The Rock gets a pump whenever he’s in Cabo....
