PRO Sports Club

Extremely clean gym, especially the locker rooms! Not crowded at all. Front desk attendants are very pleasant. Parking garage can get full during busy times. Confusing on how to take classes, as some cost extra and require a special debit card pass. Bellevue location is amazing!

I travel all over the country and this is hands down the cleanest gym I have worked out in. Thanks to a great staff.

Best fitness/​sports club in the city. Great facilities — access to Bellevue showcase location. Not too crowded. Convenient parking.
Upscale.

This gym is clean and the employees are friendly. It’s rarely crowded and there is plenty of equipment. Unfortunately, there aren’t nearly enough mirrors and the weight areas are really poorly organized, so I can only give 3 stars.
Don’t bother buying a package that includes an appointment with the nutritionist. The nutritionist is lazy and won’t book appointments. Waste of money.

Since joining PRO Sports Club in August after moving to the area, I have found myself working out damn near everyday I can. Maybe its to rationalize spending $ 80+ a month for a gym, or maybe it is because I love the ability to exercise in a fairly empty gym.
No matter the time you workout, you should expect to see the normal crowds at chain gyms. I have never had to wait for a squat rack or a treadmill. They have 2 levels full of top notch treadmills, stair masters, and literally every other type of cardio machine. They also have a pretty spacious area for free weights, plyometrics and TRX training.
If you need a motivational push, they have pretty good deals on packages for personal training. I, myself, got the 12 session pack and was pretty satisfied with how it went.
Now since I am a man, I can only speak for the men’s locker room (duh). It has many lockers for day use, or lockers for rent at around $ 55 per year which is not bad at all. It also features showers, bathroom facilities equipped with deodorant, shave cream, and anything else you may have forgotten at home to help avoid the 5 o’clock shadow at 5am… To top it all off, they even have a nice sauna that I am going to try out ASAP.
So if you hate crowded gyms, waiting endlessly just to get in a quick workout before work (I assume that’s everyone, ever?), check out PRO Sports Club.

The facilities are clean and extremely well maintained. A very good selection of equipment — unless you have specialized needs, there’s nothing «pedestrian» about the selection or quality.
Locker rooms are also spotless and well maintained; locker access and towels are part of the membership fee.
I visited after work on a Thursday — prime time for most gyms. Plenty of equipment available with no waiting necessary.
Staff is friendly and knowledgeable; I haven’t used a personal trainer and can’t comment on that.
The pricing is fair given the location and facilities: $ 75 a month for an individual membership with a $ 50 initiation fee. This is an excellent value if you’ve taken the time to do a bit of research — especially since it includes parking.
It’s important to note that Pro Sports doesn’t require or even offer contracts. That’s worth thinking about given the number of gyms that engage in abhorrent business practices involving contracts and billing schemes.
Finally, I’m mystified at the whining about new construction blocking the view of the city through the windows. It’s not their fault that we live in one of the fastest growing cities in the country. If you want a view, go climb a mountain. If you want to work out, I can recommend this place without hesitation.

Very friendly staff and awesome trainers– best service at any gym I’ve belonged to. It’s really clean and never an issue using what equipment you want. I also love the hot tub, sauna, and steam room.

This is a fantastic place to work out. I love going to the Pro Club. I go early and get a great work out before I start the day. Free parking!!!

This branch of Pro Club is neither as big nor as shiny as the flagship location in Bellevue. However, it is a few blocks away from my apartment, and for that reason I frequent it. They only have one floor of a building instead of the gigantic athletic palace that is the Bellevue branch, but it’s a pretty solid floor.
The equipment is plentiful and well-​maintained, and I’ve never had to wait for a machine. The locker rooms are a lot less crowded than you’d think. The staff is friendly and helpful, and parking is free for members – probably the best part, since this is Seattle after all! Overall, I have no complaints.

Nearly perfect — an extremely clean, uncrowded community gym. I’ve been a pro club member for the past 6 years (3 in Bellevue, the past 3 at the Seattle location) and I have yet to find fault with it. The Seattle location staff are very friendly. The equipment is abundant and in great shape, and if there’s ever any problem the staff is all over it. The price is worth it.

Equipment is very pedestrian. Basic at best. Getting the monthly newsletter made it abundantly clear that this gym’s focus is Bellevue not Seattle.
They keep the gym very clean.
Trainers are friendly but very much novices– if you are over 40 beware!
Once they lost the view of the skyline — due to next door construction I packed it in.

This was a puzzling experience for me. I live in the Eastlake area and am in search of an awesome gym that will get me excited to work out again. Mind you: I am VERY selective about what I want in a gym experience and I have extremely high expectations and have met very few gyms that I would really want to call my work out home. I joined for a week and went three times.
At any rate here’s the lowdown:
Cleanliness: This is the cleanest gym I’ve ever been to. If cleanliness is your priority, this place is for you. They don’t stop cleaning and will clean the same machine again even if no one has used it since the last cleaning. When I was there I watched them clean all the equipment extensively. It was almost a bit much for me since it was kind of distracting but I’m sure other people would love this.
Music: For some reason, when I visited them they were featuring a 1970s disco channel for their music. I’m not sure if it’s always like this, but I can’t say that disco is the most motivating music for me. Definitely bring your own headphones and music.
Space: This is 2 stories and not a very big space. It’s pretty standard with standard equipment. The cardio machines are up-​to-​date. Nothing super fancy I’d say. WHen I was there, even after work which is most gyms’ busiest times, there weren’t many people so you didn’t need to worry about getting onto machines or equipment. There’s a whole room for personal training that you can’t use unless you’re with a trainer.
Classes: I went to a step class that only had like 3 people in it which surprised me since it was right after work, theoretically a busy time. The class was ok– nothing special. I was excited about the classes but it seems like they’re not very well attended and sometimes cancelled if not enough people show up. The instructor said that this isn’t the best gym if you’re into classes– it’s just not the emphasis apparently.
Bathroom: When you walk into the bathroom you come into a lounge area with a couch and TV. I’m not sure why you would go to the gym to watch TV but there it is. The locker room is pretty nice compared to most.
Parking: There is a garage and you need to get your parking ticket validated when you go. It’s pretty fast and easy.
Overall: The ambiance is a bit mellow here. ALmost kind of depressing for me. I just didn’t feel energized to do a good workout– maybe the 1970s disco or the lack of other people working out– it just felt like a slower pace than other gyms I“ve been to. I guess they have an amazing spot in Bellevue which is why everyone joings this place. Not worth the money if you just go to the Eastlake location and I won’t be joining.

Seattle side has most of the necessary equipment for a good average person workout.
It is kinda like a large 24 hour sport gym but with amenities. Clean towels, showers, sauna/​steam room, whirlpool, soap, shampoo/​conditioner complimentary as with the main club in Bellevue. Haven’t really ever seen it overly crowded. Small steam/​sauna rooms but does the job.
Friendly staff and reasonable amount of parking available in the building although if there was a mad rush, I could see it being a problem. It is a great convenient location to workout if I need to be in Seattle. A good reminder is that Seattle location closes at 10pm.

This is an excellent gym. I only went during the days and was always able to find open equipment. I’m not sure how busy it gets in the evenings. The locker rooms are spacious, and they provide towel service, and liquid soap and shampoo in the showers. And the lockers are combination, so you don’t have to remember to bring a lock.
Each machine has a towel and spray cleaner so people can actually clean after themselves easily, rather than leaving sweat all over the place.
Most of the classes do cost extra though. Unfortunately this location is a little to long of a walk in the rain for me, when I’m trying to take an hour in the middle of the day from work. So I had to change gyms. But if it is easier for you to get to, I would recommend this place.

Best gym ever, seriously.
It’s rarely crowded, EXTREMELY clean, and very spacious. There are tons of machines, too! The vibe is unlike any other gym, and the customer service is impeccable.
Love, love it!

I don’t know how much it costs to get a membership here, but it can’t be cheap. Each machine has it’s own spray bottle and fresh towel…
The people are all really friendly and helpful.
I go there for physical therapy to see both Erin or Nate, depending on availability. I’m thankful for both of them. They’re both very good at what they do, and I’m happy to say that my range of motion is almost back to 100%!

A great facility, very nicely run. Decent amount of parking downstairs, especially if you don’t come at the start of evening rush.
Toooooons of cardio machines, both upstairs and downstairs. Decent amount of free weights, both barbell and dumbbell. Decent amount of machines. Not nearly enough Hammer Strength stuff for my liking, but you can get a complete workout here even if you’re a regular heavy lifter. You can’t get too many _​different_​complete weight workouts here, so I don’t know that it makes sense as a daily gym for a heavy lifter who changes it up a lot. But that’s a small percentage of the audience.
This place is part of a chain, and I usually use the other one. Both have excellent staff, very helpful and cheerful – definitely hired for being friendly and pleasant and outgoing without being phony. A nice, welcoming atmosphere with high-​quality materials throughout. When I will be downtown later in a day, I love to grab a workout here.
Locker room is kind of small, but rarely overcrowded. Steam room, sauna, hot tub, and a few showers. Little amenities just like in Redmond – athlete’s foot spray, deodorant, lotion, shaving cream, and mouthwash are all complimentary.

The locker rooms here are luxurious compared to all other gyms I’ve ever tried. Carpeting, wood lockers, privacy curtains, makeup stations, hot and wet saunas, whirlpool, complimentary towels, deodorant, hair spray, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and hair dryers. (Can’t imagine going back to 24 Hour Fitness down the street with their perpetually wet tile floor in the locker room and their gimpy showers.) Staff regularly make the rounds to wipe down counters and pick up after selfish slobs, etc. 99% of time women obey the posted rules about no cell phones in locker room so the environment is always quiet and relaxing.
Gym has all the equipment I need — weight machines, free weights, cardio equipment, and a second floor where they keep overhead lights off at night for folks who prefer a nocturnal experience. Gym is pretty full after standard work hours, but at most other times there’s usually just a handful of people so you have your pick of machines and equipment.

Let’s cut to the chase: There are no kids here.
Not that I have anything against kids in general. But I do have something against the rogue, non-​parentally-​supervised 6-​year-​old at the Bellevue Pro Club that smacked me in my bathing suit area as he walked past me in the hallway. Seriously, where is that kid’s mother? And where is he learning this behavior?!
At the Seattle Pro Club, these thoughts never cross my mind. I come in, swipe my card, and work out on my choice of machines. The machine I want is always open, and even during the post-​New Years Resolution rush, I haven’t found this place to be overly crowded.
I’ve been doing personal training here for quite a while, and find it to be both challenging and engaging. I also recently started a group fitness course to train for Beat the Bridge and have enjoyed that so far as well.
If you’re a new Microsoftie living in the Seattle area, definitely make sure you get access to the Seattle Pro Club. Just try it out. It doesn’t have all the perks of the Bellevue location, but it’s got a lot going for it.
Plus, did I mention there aren’t any kids?

I actually own memberships to three gyms (one for my personal trainer, one for the pool and this one, which I get free through work). Of all of them, this place has the most mediocre equipment. It’s not bad, but considering the monthly dues at this place, it’s not worth it.
The Bad:
1.Space– First off, the gym feels like it has been crammed into an office building. It feels like a hotel gym, but a bit nicer.
2.Equipment– They are a bit lacking in the type of equipment they have. Even 24 hour fitness has a better mix, which is not saying much.
3. No pool or courts of any kind. Enough said.
The Good:
1. Never crowded.
2. Nice locker rooms
3. Decent parking
