7/2025 Update To My Previous Review: Since first reviewing Peak Fitness, the improvements have been steady and, it turns out, well worth the wait. Admittedly, I am sometimes reluctant to embrace change because the safety in the "old way" seems easier than breaking out of the cocoon and expanding horizons. As the new Peak ownership began implementing the essentials of a super-clean facility, and the timely repair and refurbishment of existing equipment, management began installing new gym equipment. At first, I worried that the changes were all about "machines over members". I am sometimes intimidated to try a new machine or to ask "how" to use equipment. To that point, I've now had well over a month to watch members use the new equipment and then for me to jump in and go for it myself. WOW. What I learned is that management has curated great high-quality gym equipment rarely found at the franchise gyms where cookie cutter floor plans are the norm and where member needs might not be specific to the user. I learned first-hand the new owners value the best equipment for their members. What I found up close and personal is that the Peak Fitness new ownership offers the best, the most unique, and likely most user-friendly "machines FOR members"! It does not matter if you are training to compete or if you are like me and simply want a great, clean, friendly, best-equipped gym to exercise or work out. I can honestly say there is no "gym ego" here and all are welcomed and respected. Although membership (at all ages) is increasing at a rate I've not seen in a very long time, the gym still seems easy to negotiate at busier times. The floor plan has been fine-tuned allowing for "non-cramped' workouts at all the stations. Even the background music has been curated to provide a great high energy motivation for members of all ages and musical tastes. If you haven't been to Peak Fitness in a very long time, or if you've never been at all, this fitness community has, in my opinion as a long-time Peak member, become a local health fitness community institution with a proud and unmatched rich heritage. I urge anyone who is searching for a new health fitness home- or anyone who just wants to see how new ownership just elevated the standard for competitor gyms- stop in to Peak Fitness today! Peak Fitness has, from the earliest days Bill and Karen Pigg created this unique and special fitness community, been a solid, friendly, welcoming, and groundbreaking health fitness facility centered around its members. As a dedicated patron who first joined "Peak Performance" in 1990 (!) and who has, in the interim, lived on the SoCal west coast and the on the waters of the southwest FL Gulf coast, I can truthfully say I am happy beyond words to be back for these last couple years at my "home" gym, rebranded to the updated moniker: Peak Fitness. Rick, Jimmie, and the crew have taken Bill and Karen's vision to an extraordinarily new level no local gym can match (IMHO) when it comes to authenticity and member friendship. I honor Brad for his part in the continuum bridging the Pigg's creation to the amazing evolution Rick S. has brought to all us dedicated members: a beloved local gym tradition that few, if any, national franchise gyms might ever surpass. Peak Fitness, consistently awarded "Best Indy Gym" accolades, is a true Indy treasure completely worth what is takes for the benefits of health and community. Steadfast believers who value authenticity over hype and hoopla know up close and personal why Peak Fitness has consistently been awarded year after year the title of...
Read moreI never usually write reviews but I have to for this amazing gym. After working in the fitness industry myself I've seen the ins and outs of how gyms are ran, and this facility is hands down the most professional, clean, and welcoming environment. Jimmie and the rest of the staff really go above and beyond to make you feel welcomed and a part of this incredible community.
It doesn't end there though, they fill the place up with state of the art equipment. A lot of their machines I haven't seen anywhere else. And even the equipment that's pretty standard across all gyms are fantastic here. Everything is very well taken care of and I've even seen them fix some of them the moment they're made aware of an issue.
My favorite thing about this gym is the simplicity and transparency with everything. I paid 40 to sign up, and 40 a month to continuing coming. I've never been hit with any late fees or the "price guarantee" that plagues corporate gyms. They are also very good with keeping you updated with emails about any changes or issues.
If you've made it to the end of this long winded review, I'd have to wrap it up by saying this is THE best gym in the city. Arguably the whole state. Signing up was one of the best decisions I ever made, and it's money well spent every month. Thank you, Peak, for being a highlight of my week, and for your continued dedication to helping everyone become the best versions...
Read moreAre you tired of going to a gym where you feel like just a number on a spreadsheet? Or do you feel like your membership dues are just being pocketed and never put back into the facility? If so you need to come and give Peak a try. From the moment you walk in you will feel like part of the Peak family. Peak has equipment for everyone no matter what your fitness goals are. The owner Jimmie is one of the greatest people you will ever meet. He truly has a passion for fitness and the community inside the gym. He is friendly and extremely knowledgeable so if you need a spot on a lift or help using some of the new equipment he is always willing to help out. Jimmie’s passion for the gym shows mostly in the equipment that he curates for the gym. He finds the best equipment that is used by some of the biggest names in the fitness industry. It is like seeing the membership dues being put to good use in constant improvements in the gym. I can’t say enough good things about out the gym and its staff. If you are looking for a positive change of pace in your fitness journey then you have to stop in and...
