Downing's Gym is widely considered the best gym in Corvallis. It is a performance gym that is very welcoming to beginners while also clearly catering to experienced bodybuilders, creating a comfortable environment for all experience levels. The gym fosters a close community and a great culture, with a friendly and approachable staff that also lift. The options are numerous, featuring lots of equipment including free weights, cable weights, isometric space, strength and performance training areas, aerobic machines, and some of the most unique and specialized equipment around. The facility has mirrored walls, lockers, and showers. It operates with a championship mindset where everyone is focused on their own workout in a supportive atmosphere.
Just transferred over from another gym, 24/7 is a game changer and the vibe is unmatched.

Originally from the Corvallis area, back in town visiting family. I recently turned pro and was looking for a solid gym to train at. I checked out Downing’s gym, incredible people, had the equipment I needed for a back session! Peter, the owner was great and genuine. Thanks for having me and I will be back!
