Fitness & Gyms in South Bend, IN

“What gyms are supposed to look and feel like. Owner is great, has anything you could ever want or need, and is 24 hours. Can't beat a $10 drop in pass either. A favorite of mine for sure amidst a lot of travel and gym-hopping for work.”

“I highly recommend Body Evolution!After being injured in a car crash and having underlying back issues, Jane has helped me come a long way with my health! Through specialized exercises, stretches, and her positive encouragement, I have improved immensely. she not only helps you improve, but she cares about your success as well! Great place, Great people.”

“This is a great gym! Very friendly staff and very reasonable pricing. Had all we needed for strength training and cardio, thankful to have an option so close to us!”

“Cannot say enough good things about Primal. The owner is passionate about every client's fitness. If you need motivation and expertise on physical fitness and you like Pearl Jam, this is for you.”

“I’m a huge advocate for 24-hour gyms. Life can be chaotic, and having access to a gym whenever it fits your schedule has always been important to me. I originally started going to Planet Fitness because it was close, affordable, and open 24 hours, but I’m not a big crowd person. The gym can already be intimidating or overwhelming enough, and crowded spaces just aren’t my thing.

Finding FitStop was honestly a godsend.

It has everything I was looking for: 24-hour access, a smaller and more comfortable environment, modern equipment, and a clean, well-maintained space. The machines are up-to-date, usually available when I need them, and if anything ever needs attention, it seems to get handled quickly. The staff has always been friendly, helpful, and easy to work with. Even the people who go there are respectful, efficient, and kind. I’ve never had a bad experience.

What really pushed me to leave this review was a recent experience with the owner. I was out of the country for several months and had originally planned to be gone much longer. I reached out hoping to pause my membership because I genuinely didn’t want to cancel, I love the gym, but I simply wasn’t going to be in the area. At the time, I was told pausing might not be possible, so I thought that was that.

When I ended up coming back earlier than expected, my card key wasn’t working. I reached out, and to my surprise, I found out the owner had gone ahead and paused my account anyway. I had no idea. He absolutely didn’t have to do that, but it was such a thoughtful and generous gesture. Getting my account reactivated was painless, and I couldn’t be happier to be back.

FitStop is a quality gym with great equipment, a clean space, friendly people, and owners who actually care. They’ve also recently upgraded the space, so there’s even more room now, which makes the experience even better.

If you’re in the area and looking for a reliable 24-hour gym without the overwhelming crowds, I highly recommend giving FitStop a try. ?”

“All in all, it's a decent gym. They have good workout machines and decent free weights. The one on Western Ave actually has squat racks besides just smith machines.”
