Pro Fitness

I love this gym! It’s always clean and the staff is so friendly :) My favorite gym in Rhode Island.

This gym is clean, staff/​owners are cool. Classes are up to par. Clientele are fitness focused. No rif raf. Good equipment and space. Month to month so, they don’t try to screw you over.

This place offers a free week pass on their website (
) which gave me enough time get a real feel for the gym before signing up. The gym itself is neither large nor small, and in fact feels just right for a newbie like me.
I primarily use the cardio machines, elliptical/​treadmill/​stair master/​stationary bike and have never had to wait for a machine. The treadmills are in front of some of the other machines so some folks might feel uncomfortable having people right behind them as they run in place.
I have also dipped my toe into the nautilus machine area, which is a little nerve wracking. That’s all due to my own hang ups though, no one has been creepy or made me feel wired for being over there. All of the machines have been in good working order and patrons seem to be diligent about wiping them down after each use.
The woman’s locker room is always clean and has enough room for multiple people to be getting changed at the same time.
My only complaint, and it’s SUPER minor, is that the majority of the magazines are targeted to men and a little dated. Like I said, super minor but I would also love to be able to read something that is not GQ while i’m cooling off on an exercise bike.
I got a great deal on groupon to this place, but I’ll definitely be buying a membership when it’s up. The owner is super pleasant and I’m happy to be in a place where I can focus on my fitness and not have to wade through dude-​bros while I do it.

Just joined at this gym to see how it is… the place is really small on the inside, seems kinda cramped. place is very clean and organized. With all the new gyms out there this place would be very low on my «to go to list»

I like this gym because there’s nobody there…, ever! It’s pretty clean and the staff or generally nice. It has just about all the equipment you need.

I have been going to Pro Fitness for about a month now and I really like it there. I love going to the classes: muscle sculpt, boot camp, spin, etc. They are very motivating and fun! The TV’s are nice as well and I like to watch the news while I run before I go to a class. The employees there are very nice and welcoming. It is also really clean there which is a huge plus.
One thing I do wish was that there was two big rooms for classes (aside from the spin room) so there could be classes at multiple times and depending on work/​schedules you could choose a class at either 5:00, 5:30, or 6:00 etc. Sometimes the classes fill up so having two classes around the same time would help eliminate that.

I agree completely with the first review. I have been going to this gym for almost 4 years and have always enjoyed it. Yes, it is under new ownership, but these new owners have taken a good, simple, clean gym and turned it into a more upscale and up to date fitness center.
One thing I always loved about this gym (back when it was World’s and now as Pro Fitness) is the level of cleanliness. The equipment, floors, and locker rooms are always spotless. The staff works tirelessly to keep it that way. Another thing I have always enjoyed is the lack of a «scene». You won’t find a Gold’s Gym style pickup place with girls decked out in full makeup and meatheads trying to ask them out. Everyone there is just there to work out. As the first review mentioned, there’s plenty of friendly people there if you want to socialize. However, I tend to keep to myself and have never had an issue doing that.
As for the improvements with the new owners, there have been many. Spin classes are offered everyday with AWESOME instructors. They also offer classes like boot camp and ZUMBA. They’ve added quite a bit of cardio equipment and updated all of the TVs to new flat screens. Overall, the owners are wonderful and will do anything they can to be accommodating. In fact — I am getting ready to go have a killer treadmill run there right now.
