Mitch’s Market Street Gym

Absolutely love Mitch’s Gym. Great staff and a true neighborhood gym. Not a place where the latest fitness fads are introduced and then replaced, but a place that will provide ample opportunities to get fit. Personal training is a big part of Mitchs appeal and it is evidenced by the amount of trainees that I see every time I am in. I am well on my way in reaching my fitness goal and I credit it to my personal training with Sarah.

I’ve been a member of Mitch’s Gym for about 4 years and Mitch’s has changed my life. When I first joined the gym I was weighing in at over 355 lbs. Mitch’s convenient location and encouraging staff helped me to lose 140 lbs in just about 5 months! More importantly they’ve helped me to keep it off. Mitch’s offers everything from cardio machines to weight training to specialized classes and personal trainers. I just can’t thank Mitch’s staff enough for all that they do!

Great neighborhood gym! They have enough equipment for everyone even in peak hours. Great personal trainers and classes. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. Also, there aren’t many meat head jocks that could intimidate the average gym member. I do wish they had a spinning room though :(

Its an average gym at best as far as weight lifting goes. If you’re a serious lifter I would stay away as their equipment selection is below par especially for the money you are shelling out every month. They have only 1 power rack and 1 squat rack. Thats its. Anyone with an ounce of weight lifting knowledge knows barbell squats and dead lifts should be the foundation of the majority of routines yet this gets the least attention in the gym. Almost nobody dead lifts in the gym and thats pretty sad for any gym.
The other con is it gets crowded in there at peak hours. Everybody crowds around the dumbbell rack and multistation. Theres not much room if you want to do anything with movements like dumbbell lunges. Thats the most annoying aspect. Too much non functional equipment in a small gym forcing people together. The gym actually appears much larger from the outside and in photos. The main issue is they have both treadmills and weights on the same floor which is much too tight
The place is what it is. West Chester has no really good gyms in it and im surprised there hasn’t been any other decent competition
There is pros to working out here. Staff is friendly, you can actually park there. Also they have added bonus of a room with heavy bags and a speed bad
Bottom line, if you’re a serious lifter who incorporates squats, dead lifts and other compound movements then this gym is going to annoy you unless you can go on off hours. If you going there just to curl and run on the treadmill then you’ll love it.

My favorite gym in the region. Meets my needs perfectly and has all the essentials. If you like a comfortable atmosphere and the best trainers in the area this is the place! Relaxed, competent staff and friendly folks as well. If you’re thinking about joining a gym Mitch’s is the right one… Just Do It! You won’t regret it, I guarantee.
