Gettysburg Performance Gym — Local services in Mount Joy Township

Gettysburg Performance Gym (GPG) is by far, one of the best gyms I have ever worked out at.

This is coming from someone who is very familiar with fitness facilities - from large fitness chains to hometown gyms to personal training studios.

GPG is a gym centered around one critical aspect - achieving fitness results.

It’s not a gym where people stand around talking, taking up space, and kind of working out just to say they go to the gym. Instead it’s a hometown gym with a results mentality vibe. It’s for people who want to take their health and results seriously, which should be the goal of everyone who has a gym membership.

GPG is the perfect facility whether you are new to fitness or a serious athlete. They have ample equipment: functional, machines, free weights as well as a section of turf.

Also, the owner of the gym has done an excellent job with hiring top notch trainers. From someone who started getting back into a serious routine approximately four months ago, I’ve approached each of the trainers when I needed help, whether it’s alternative exercises from the program I am doing, locating pieces of equipment or how to use specific equipment I am not accustomed to. They have been nothing short of helpful and friendly.

In 3 short months, I’ve personally put on 8 pounds of muscle. I know this wouldn’t be possible without GPG. Thanks to GPG, the owner and their staff. Needless to say, I would highly recommend...

One of the places I will miss most in Gettysburg.

I have been a member of this gym for 3 years now, through both of their locations and I am now moving. The care that the crew takes in making sure the gym is clean, functional, and optimized can’t be overstated.

I am not the most serious gym goer, but I have been a member of other commercial gyms, such as Gold’s Gym, crunch, and LA Fitness, and this gym blows them all out of the water. In terms of maintenance, and equipment quality AND quantity. For example, my Gold’s Gym had two squat racks, no deadlift platform, and 3 bench presses, in a gym where they had probably about 100 people there during peak hours, in a city of 200,000 people, causing wait times and ruining workouts for people who don’t have a lot of time due to their jobs such as myself. Here, that is not an issue and I don’t think I have had to wait more than a handful of times over the course of 3 years.

I’d also like to applaud their range in terms of audience. Whether you are into powerlifting, bodybuilding, just trying to stay in shape or whether you are 8 to 80. They have something there for you and the staff are more than willing to help you with your goals.

Thanks to GPG...

Phil, the owner and my trainer, is outstanding! He completely listened to my needs when I walked in last March just to get a feel for the place. He immediately invested in me and has worked hard with me over the past 5 and a half months to completely change my life. He has challenged me in ways that I never knew I could handle but is very responsible and respectful of my abilities. He has greatly improved my functional fitness in which I have utilized it both personally and professionally. Phil completely lives what he teaches and you can see that within the gym. The environment at GPG is incredibly supportive and offers the right kind of encouragement for me. I love that it is smaller. I also love that everyone there is truly interested in working out and not just hanging around and talking or there to be seen. If you have any questions, schedule a tour because that is where I began! This has definitely been a revolutionary and life-changing experience! And this review comes even after getting my butt...
