Pope Fitness

I have been a member of Pope Fitness almost since the beginning. I can’t say enough about the owners, trainers and staff! They have two Trainers they have are amazing!! Travis Reynold’s and Travis Leon. Travis Reynold’s is mine he is great! Pope takes Silver Sneakers!! I am 72 years old and Travis has helped me immensely. He helped me recover from my total knee replacement. At Pope they can accommodate young to Seniors. I highly recommend Pope Fitness!!

I canceled my membership at Pope after only a few months because the weightroom was maybe average at best. Half if their equipment is falling apart and their free weights are scattered all over the place. their facilities and lockers are horrible. The place just felt low-energy altogether. I'm writing this review 6 months later because it turns out they kept charging my account, even after the proper cancelation procedures. They botched my name when it was originally entered it into their system, so they couldn't locate my account to cancel it. I brought all of this to their attention and it was clear to all of us that this mistake was on them. When it was time to refund what they took, they made it my fault for not noticing earlier. I did monitor my account for Pope Fitness, but they show up on your bank statement UNDER A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT COMPANY NAME. I paid them almost $300 and received nothing. There are better gyms in the area for less $$, and they're certainly cleaner.

This is were Hercules would chose to work out!!! The best workout facility in the greater Cleveland area. Spacious, not overcrowded, tons of free weights, great cross fit equipment, nice variety of nautilus equipment. Its not a planet fitness, its the next level, if you are looking to really workout and this is the place with the space and equipment to do so. Its the real deal. Thank you Don Pope for having a real workout facility in Cleveland.

Everything you’d want in a gym, no hassle using preferred equipment. Equipment is great from cardio to dumbbells to racks to platforms to machines to turf area. Gives you feeling of being in an old school gym, although massive.

Let me start by explaining I’m a student at Kent State that’s home for spring break. This is 100% honest feedback from a 20 year old focused on bodybuilding. Basically I needed a gym nearby to workout at while I’m home. I looked at multiple gyms in the area and This gym by far is the BEST gym in the area. It has equipment for everything you need to get stronger. I would definitely say this gym is for all types of ages and fitness levels. Don Pope clearly knows how to run a gym and what people into fitness need in order to be successful. I have talked to both Don Pope and his wife they are super friendly and kind. They asked me where I was from and genuinely showed an interest in me as a person not just a customer. They also never tried to sell me a membership or anything which I found to be very respectful. The gym is pretty clean and everything is in pretty good condition. Something I love about this gym is that it never is overcrowded and I never feel judged while working out. I never have to wait for equipment which is a huge plus for me. This gym is definitely a 10/10 and I’ve found very few problems with it. The only thing I could say I wish this gym had was more water fountains or at least a water station in the back of the gym. I also wish they had paper towel dispensers in the workout areas so I can wipe off sweat. I also wish they had mirrors in the locker room for Personally I don’t care ab that stuff I’m here to workout and I will be signing up for a membership once I’m back for summer break. If you live around here and are looking for a gym this is going to be the BEST gym in the area. I also love the fact I can support a small business over those chain businesses that really don’t care about you as a person. Don and his wife have created a great gym and atmosphere here it genuinely feels like home and a family. Good job guys keep up the great work!

So glad I joined Pope! They have all the equipment I need, free weights (including barbells and a big lifting area), plenty of machines, and a nice turf area to get creative with workouts! The owners Don and Dawn are so friendly, and always willing to show me how to use new equipment or offer tips on a workout. It’s a great place to workout!

Absolutely love this gym! My son and I have been training here for a little over a year. We recently started training with Eddy and I cannot speak highly enough of him! In 2 months I have lost 15 inches and my son has gained almost the same in muscle mass! Most importantly, my son's confidence and self-esteem is greatly improved! Ask for Eddy, you won't regret it!!

I've been to several gyms up and down the east coast and I can truly say that none of them have ever felt like home quite like this place has. The owners are incredibly welcoming, there's a ton of equipment available, and the environment is one that fosters and supports the growth of its members. Regardless of your age, training level, or training style, there is something for everyone here and plenty of people to help you reach your goals.

Great gym! Lots of equipment & free weights. Clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back the next time I’m in the area

Great gym! I just joined last week with a coworker & we already LOVE Pope Fitness. Love that they have anything and everything! The best part is the turf area; to make all your workout dreams come true! SO happy to have joined an amzing gym!
