Fitness & Gyms in Royal Oak, MI

“I’ve done Orangetheory Royal Oak in the past on and off but have just joined their Transformation Challenge and going more frequently and I am feeling a so much better in general. I want to specifically shout out the front staff and coaches- the front staff are always positive, willing to accommodate, and helpful, they are the backbone of the place. The coaches make the whole system work. JC is a MOTIVATOR. When I take his class, I know I am going to push to be the best version of myself in the workout. Katie is funny, spunky, knows how to show you correct form on the weight floor and is energizing. Kristina is the coach that most inspires me to come in. She genuinely cares and personally confronted me when I was feeling down about my results and she made me feel confident again. She is positive and makes me always want to work harder. The entire staff is extremely skilled at what they do and I am so happy that I came back! Even though I am not the most in shape, I feel like everyone truly wants what is best for me. It isn’t cheap, but worth every penny. Thanks OT Royal Oak, you are and have changed my life for the better.”

“I've been a member of the Y since January, 2015. Since that time I've been impressed with the expertise of instructors, the friendliness of staff and the wonderful connections that the Y has with our community. It's always an enjoyable to be at the Y where staff knows my name and there's friendly people with whom I can have good conversations. In particular, I appreciate the classes that are available for seniors. Thank you, YMCA, for everything.”

“Great space inside between machines and clean once you get past the abrasive urine smell as soon as you walk in. Has been like this for a few months now. Other than that, no complaints!”

“8/19/25 Still a great place to come light traffic in the early afternoon.
6/9/25: Update - I have raised the rating from 4 to 5, I have been going for over 3 months now and it has continued to be a friendly place that is well maintained.

I have read a lot of reviews and was concerned that the gym was going to be dirty and the aerobics machines were going to be offline. That was not the case I have been going there for a week and all the aerobics machines except for one treadmill were up. Of the steppers they have six three had service coming and everything else was running. I do not use the locker room so I can't speak to that but the rest of the facility was very clean some of the equipment is older and that is evidenced by rubber grips that are worn but in general it is a very nice gym. In addition the staff at the front is very friendly and very helpful.”

“I started personal training here about 7 months ago and love it! The energy and positivity of everyone who works out here is infectious. I’ve learned how to do all the basic lifts with great form and am able to lift more than I ever have. I train with Rachel, who is so friendly, caring and an absolutely awesome coach. She has figured out how to work around my limitations and injuries, and I’ve been able to make amazing progress toward my goals.”

“The instructors are high energy and really get you in the mood to give your best! The moves are pretty easy to follow and most instructors cue (let you know what move is coming up) very well. This group is like an encouraging family, even for the guys like me who work out here!”

“Rev Fitness is a Awesome Gym!! Great Trainers!! There is a 30 min Circuit for a quick workout at anytime that works best for you. Our kids love to do a one on one Boxing Class. I love to grab a healthy meal from Rev Fridge on my way out to eat on the go or take home for later.”
