I took a Wine and Squat event class here. This convinced me to purchase a groupon for 10 classes for around $40 which is a great deal. I like groupon for trying new places. Also, I'm already a member at other studios and just wanted a place to fill in the occasional gap where I needed a workout. The gym is bright and clean. There are lockers for your stuff. Multiple single bathrooms that are large suitable for changing (not stalls, a room with a toilet and sink). Water fountains and bottled water available. Bring your own towel if you're a sweater. I mostly took the power hour classes which were all great. I particularly enjoyed Jillian's classes. I did take Zumba strong once. I probably would have taken it again, but I was the only class attendee when I went and it felt awkward having everyone else in the gym able to watch. Not sure if this was a fluke or if this class isn't well attended. If you're looking for a place to workout where the workouts are constantly changing and challenging, I would recommend this place. The only reason I stopped going is because it was similar to a place that I already attend, and I just feel a stronger bond to my original gym. Also, I decided to add spinning and barre to my week rather than more of the same stuff. Everyone in class, including the instructors, was friendly and found humor when things got hard-- which I find important. They do barbell training in this gym as well. Which is my only negative. I personally don't enjoy hearing the barbells banging the floor. So if you're an anxious person or have ptsd, you should take that into...

When I got out of college I was really starting to get into olympic weightlifting. I was trying to self teach myself, but I just kept coming up short. While I continued to struggle, one of my buddies told me about PFP, and Tom Duer. I went there for a barbell assessment, and from that second on I knew this was the gym for me. I signed up on the spot and it has been nothing but positive results and good vibes ever since. Tom, and the rest of his trainers are excellent coaches who work very well with the clients and write programs that are designed for YOU. Not the cookie cutter average you see in most gyms. They also provide a great array of group classes that would put most commercial gym classes to shame. The atmosphere at the gym is encouraging, upbeat, and positive.. ALWAYS. The coaches, athletes, and clients there always try to pull the most out of you so that you can achieve the best version of yourself. It feels like we’re all one big family every time I’m there. Ever since I’ve signed up there, my clean and jerk has increased by 20kg (and climbing), my snatch by 30kg (and climbing), and my back and front squat by almost 50kg. And thanks to these guys, this December I’ll be competing in my first weightlifting competition! Its really amazing what a good atmosphere and even better coaches can do for you. I HIGHLY recommend this gym to any aspiring Olympic weightlifter, bodybuilder, or even someone who just wants to get in shape, move better, and build a healthier self inside and out. I promise you won’t be...

Ive attended Pittsburgh Fitness Project classes over the last 2 years. They will modify the workout to any fitness level need. My personal favorites are PFP Strong and Power Hour. In Nov 2017 I started personal training sessions with Tonya 2x week. My goal was to focus on building strength. She is great at explaining the areas to focus on, working multiple muscles through a single movement, and we have yet to repeat the same exercises. She keeps it fun by incorporating ropes, kettle bells, sled push, boxes, TRX, ski urg, barbell, calisthenics, and stretching into sessions. I've learned so much from her and it was the best decision to begin investing in my health. All the instructors are helpful and motivating. Any doubts I've had about my capabilities have been tested, guided through coaching, and proved my self doubt wrong. Everyone belongs here when you walk through the doors. They truly care and the atmosphere...
