I've been lifting for 15+ years, this is the best gym I've been a member of other than the main bodybuilding gym in Melbourne, Aus. Great equipment, 24/7 access, helpful staff, not too crowded. Also a wide array of fitness levels and goals, so no one will feel out of place. I'm super glad to have found it

The staff are amazing. Excellent/consistent customer service. The gym atmosphere is inviting and welcoming! Southside is always hosting events at the gym. In addition they host an annual membership appreciation bbq. Honestly, I don’t know of any other gym here locally that really takes care of their clientele like Southside.To add, plenty of equipment of your picking and overall amazing facility

Absolutely love the atmosphere and community built here! The trainers are all so knowledgeable and there’s plenty of equipment to get a good workout even during the busier times. Feel lucky to have found this place to get serious about strength training!

Best gym in Alaska! Loving the new facility updates, equipment and men's bathroom. The staff have been nothing but courteous and attentive and facilities are clean and organized.

I really liked this facility, it's a real shame i had to discontinue my membership here. They have some of the rudest staff i've ever encountered anywhere. It reminded me of those restaurant chains where the whole theme is having wait staff are rude and condescending to you. The front desk lady with the nose ring and a few tattoos was insufferable and just nasty for no reason. She gave me nothing but attitude from the day I signed up and onward. She literally rolled her eyes at me once when I had a question about my barcode key card. Crazy how she made planet fitness seem more appealing than a facility with great equipment. The friends I had that also went here have cancelled their membership as well because she is like this with everyone, it's just not worth it to be talked down to when you're just trying to work out. I'd much rather give my money to a business that employs decent people.

I am extremely appalled at the lack of professionality of this gym. I "cancelled" my membership over the phone with my friend next to me on 8/7/23 with one of their front desk attendants after I had been out of town and had to turn off my card since they had attempted to charge it 10 times she had laugh at that and said she had no clue why it would do that. I was willing to let that go and thought after I had called and the employee told me I wasn't going to be on the bill cycle anymore that I was done with it. now this month I'm looking at my account and not only was I charged this month but also a week after I was told I wasn't going to be charged anymore. i spoke with two gentlemen who were nice but equally confused and said the back to back charges were weird and also that they would put in the notes to hopefully get me refunded since theirs clearly seems to be a communication problem. I finally call a third time to try and see where the status was on it and I get ahold of the manager Hailee who then proceeds to tell me there's a policy that I actually had to come in and cancel it physically. I was never explained this policy nor was I even in town to do so. she then tells me the girl that I told to cancel it actually put in the notes that I told her I was coming in physically to renew my membership, this was not at all what I said and if it was, I again physically haven't been into that gym in three months so it shouldn't have renewed. I understand if there was a policy but no one had ever communicated that to me nor is it posted in anything. the manager also tried telling me that I asked to pay for three months and again I never asked for that also my email and my membership is the month to month. I don't find it fair that because of the error of communication of employees should be my fault. an employee told me it was done and I believed them. the manager further tells me she wont approve any refunds due to my attitude, its on me for not following the policy that was never made known. but at this point I feel like I'm in every position to be upset because I wasn't treated with respect last month with the employee that thought it was funny when i asked about the multiple charge attempts to my card and that i no longer wanted to continue it and then now with the manager being completely bias and rather argue with me and find everyway to tell me what I did wrong.

I’ve been working out at Southside for years and I love the atmosphere this gym provides. The owners are always looking to improve the gym, either through expansions or simply replacing the floors in the women’s locker room (which by the way makes the locker room bigger I swear). I recommend this gym to anyone living in Anchorage, or simply passing through.

I've had several gym memberships over the years and Southside is hands down the best gym. The staff are awesome and environment motivating! Bathrooms just got redone and look awesome!

This place is real cool. Locally owned and ran by real locals. It's been a favorite for me for a long time. The staff are super friendly and all the members I've interacted with have been really kind.They have all the free weights you could ever need and have been really upping their cardio game. I was stoked when they replaced all there old treads with really nice brand new ones a couple of years ago and love the new step climbers they got a couple of months ago.
