I've gone to Thrive for almost 2 years now. I love it. Great atmosphere, lots of open space and nice machines. Great equipment for lifting or cardio. Never too crowded, and a dry sauna too (my personal favorite after a workout). This place generally made me feel so comfortable (as a women) working out. Just a great place, decent price (around $60 a month I believe). Not one to write reviews, but got my partner going here too. One of those gyms where it's a hidden gem and if you know, you know.

Excellent location! Easy to sign up! Open 24hrs! More than enough equipment! Sauna! ? No contract! The ONLY reason I didn't give 5 stars is the music volume overnight. I can't even hear my own headphones it's so loud... I have asked multiple times for the staff to please lower it. I will revise my review if this happens, but I definitely recommend this gym ??????

I live out of town and every time I come to Iowa City to visit family I drop in at Thrive. Cleanest gym I’ve ever been to, smart equipment choices, good layout. Also plenty of space to get your workout in even if there are several other people there at the same time. Visiting or a resident I recommend Thrive Gym!

The BEST gym I’ve ever been apart of! This gym is kept so clean and has everything I could want, including free lockers and massive private bathrooms. All of the staff I’ve interacted with has been so friendly and kind. I feel very at home here. Coming to thrive has become the best part of my day! I can’t recommend this place enough!!

There is a lot to like about this gym if you are a weightlifter . Dumbbells that go up to 120lb's , 2 calf machines , hip sled and a lot of other nice equipment . They have really nice individual bathrooms too .

I am very disappointed as I previously heard very positive things about this gym and I was hoping to become a member. Unfortunately, I’ve been hearing there has been an increase in racist actions, lack of valuing employees, and a decrease in classes due to wrestling mats/lack of ability to use equipment. I started at Performance in North Liberty and their classes are great and it feels so much more inclusive.

We started at thrive during the height of the pandemic and we have loved it. The general manager, Kathy, is amazing and everyone there knows us by name even if we haven't "met" them yet. Would recommend this gym to everyone, all levels!

my husband and I have been going to this gym for over two years. We have brought this gym a lot of business over this time and we like to bring our friends to work out with. My husband has a 4year accredited degree in exercise science so he helps me and our friends lift correctly. However, we just received a very rude and disturbing email from the general manager telling us to stop our personal training business. First off we don't have a business and second they didn't ask us if we had one they just assumed. We did not recieve an appology but rather more rudeness. Her customer service skills are terrible. Additionally, since we know how to properly lift we have noticed that they allow anyone to be a personal trainer here and it shows. Some of them have children lifting too much weight. What they don't know is that this can stunt their growth. I highly recommend going some place else.

They playing Rambo 3 on video screens has made my day. ?? But other than that; friendly staff, top notch eqipment and a general positive attitude (both from management and patrons) are the best things about this gym. Also I believe being a woman-owned, women-managed establishment is behind all this????

Best gym in the area HANDS DOWN!! The vibes at this gym are unmatched, everyone is very welcoming and personal! Also private bathrooms, a dry sauna, and vibe boxing is also attached! Nothing beats walking down into that gym to lift!
