Been a member with southside for almost 3 years now. Couldn’t be happier with our experience here. From the staff, to the members, it’s truly an excellent gym experience, and far superior to the large gyms in the area. Highly recommend!

I’ve been going to this gym for the past 4 years, and I watched the community grow to what it is now. If you want an amazing gym environment I would definitely recommend going here. The owners, and the workers here are great if you want to be able to sign up easily. The gym definitely beats all gyms in Lakeland if you want a good workout, and a good 24/7 atmosphere.

Today was my first day at Southside Barbell and it was a 10/10 experience! Fred was so helpful and the gym was clean and had so much equipment. I’m so excited to fall back in love with working out at an amazing place!

Im from out of town visiting family but I wish this gym was closer to me as it is one of the best gyms I've been to. I can confidently say this is the best gym in lakeland. Friendly staff, a good variety of clean and cool machines, and nice members make this a great gym and I am glad I came here.

Started training in the gym at 14 years old. I’ve gone too pretty much every minor or major gym in Lakeland, and the Polk County area. i’m in my 50s now, and been a member of Southside for over 10 years. This place is the best gym in Lakeland! It’s never crowded, All the members are really cool and easy to get along with. And everyone that works there is always more happy to help, give advice, and makes it a point to say hi to me when I’m in. They remember your name. And it seems like they are generally glad that you’re there. You’re not just a number. If you haven’t gone, you need to check it out!

I wish I lived in Lakeland since I have had the best experience at this gym. I have visited several times and consistently found a great variety of equipment and friendly staff. I am not the most fit person, and I go to Southside Barbell with my son who is much more experienced with working out. This gym is welcoming and has lots of options for both of our workouts. I can honestly say this is my favorite gym to go to!
