Miami Strong Gym — Local services in Miami

This gym is a godsend in Miami, I did research on every single potential gym in the area before signing up.

Here's the deal: the gym is my second home, I spend 2 hours a night there 6 - 7 days a week. I've been all around country trying out the top gyms (Golds Venice, powerhouse gyms). So while this review may sound too good to be true, its the honest truth:

First off the front desk staff, especially Alan, are all extremely nice and helpful.

The gym equipment is all top notch and extremely well maintained. Everything is worked on by the in-house staff so nothing ever breaks and you don't have to deal with broken machines.

The community of the gym is also great, everyone that goes there is friendly and understands that its a small local gym. You are able to make friends with people that go around the same time and enjoy a vibrant and happy atmosphere every day.

They go above and beyond with their machines and have a cold plunge and an infrared sauna. They don't cheap out on anything all the equipment is the best in its class.

When it comes to cleanliness, they have a full time staff going around cleaning machines (yes even in the post covid era) and putting away the weights. Which basically means the gym is clean 100% of the time. The members also have a collective agreement to wipe down their machines when they are done with them.

I never personally used the personal training but I can tell that all of the trainers are not only jacked but take their education very seriously and are always improving by staying up to date on the scientific literature.

There's also a smoothie bar that has a ton of protein shakes and other snacks, almost everyday they provide some shots of espresso, cold towels around the gym floor.

Because everything has to have some cons here's what i'll mention:

Sometimes (very rarely) you go during a group class and they are using one of the machines you were intending to use. This has only happened once out of the 100 times I've been here so not really a huge issue.

I wish there was a dry sauna, I know, I know I'm reaching here but I had to at least list some cons even if they aren't really cons.

All in all if you're even slightly in the vicinity of this gym and are looking to join a community of positive, healthy, and aesthetic people you have no choice but to come visit Miami Strong. If you're here visiting and you're a fan of nice gyms come check it out you wont be...

I have always enjoyed working out but it wasn't until I joined Miami Strong that I realized the huge impact that awesome machines, experienced trainers, and consistent classes can make. I can't believe I only started three months ago because I have seen such positive changes mentally and physically!!

As an active young girlie, I always thought that I was in shape from running and 'toning' classes online - I WAS WRONG. The classes here can be quite humbling bc they will challenge (and strengthen) you!! Each class is different too so you will still get sore and you will want to die. Think five cardio stations in a row are too much...think again because Coach Keemz will not care (you wont regret it though). Nina is super encouraging and invested in the participants. She listens to class suggestions and really structures the class based on us, such a gem!! The classes really sparked the changes in my body. I absolutely love starting my day with the classes - the energy is contagious and I feel guilty if I miss!

I also train with Keem who tailors his programs to the individuals to ensure results. I am his favorite so he is always super responsive and makes me Cuban coffee during our sessions. Don't let me play you though - he will also call you out during his classes and add more weight but it's because he cares. He is so selfless - despite being a model influencer, he cares most how us patrons look. He is most likely to whip you into shape!

ALSO they say abs are made in the kitchen but I never use my kitchen and I got abs from this gym sooo if you want some of that magic then you know what to do.

PS - Sebastian's smoothies are chef's kiss! Try the coffee one or the mango one! We also love edwin...

Tbh, I rarely write reviews and I've never written a review for a gym.

But Miami Strong definitely deserves it because the team clearly cares about what they do every day. Specifically...

On day 1, before the sun even rose I was welcomed by Coach Keemz. Energy already high and ready to be helpful if needed. Wasn't cheesy/in your face either. Just cool.

And shout out to Allan, always being helpful, bringing good energy, and a great person to be around.

This gym is definitely the best one I've ever been a member of. The level of consistency from everyone that works there is rare to see in other gyms.

Keeping the space clean and organized all day, everyday. Staff that's super helpful, experienced (they all lift), and genuinely friendly. Machines that are not only kept it in working order, but seem to be constantly evaluated for efficacy. If it isn't effective for muscle growth, then it gets replaced. Damn.

The other members are cool and respectful of each others's space. And people actually re-rack their equipment!

I almost don't want to recommend Miami Strong because it feels like one of those best-kept secret spots in Miami (even though it's right by the water.) that you don't want to run the risk of other people messing it up.

But here I am...definitely recommend you to...
