Performance Fitness PF247 - Hurricane, Utah

Chad Holland

This gym started off strong but has gone downhill over time. The customer service is severely lacking—front desk staff rarely acknowledge members with a greeting or farewell, and any interaction feels like an inconvenience. The gym itself is in complete disarray, with cleanliness and organization being major issues. The men’s locker room is especially appalling, with filthy showers, toilet stalls, and urinals—it’s simply unacceptable.

To make matters worse, they’ve been raising prices by $5 every 6-12 months without any noticeable improvements to justify the hikes. It’s also become a hangout spot for teenagers, which creates additional problems. One person scans their membership, and then a group of their friends gets let in, leading to overcrowding. Good luck finding an available machine amidst all the socializing and filming.

Hurricane deserves a better gym than this. If you’re serious about your workouts, you’re better off driving to VASA or Summit. Just my two cents.

Pretty solid gym and good atmosphere! The employees are kind and helpful, and the people here are usually really nice too. Highly recommend for avid gym goers or those last minute resolution keepers.

Its super busy unless you go late at night. Machines are usually in okay shape, the ones that arent usually get fixed faster now. Also the A/C went out and for about 4 weeks or so it was hot AF in the summer. Bathrooms are kinda gross at this gym, still no hand sanitizer machine, which is wild to me. Used to love this gym when it first opened, too bad its always packed.

I have to disagree with Sarah’s review as well. My family of 4 and I have been going to this gym for 3 years after we moved to the area. We all have a wonderful experience there. We attend the gym at least 6 days a week and never once have I seen people hoarding equipment. I rarely have to wait for a machine to use. I’ve been to several other gyms and this by far is the cleanest I’ve been too. I see staff walking around constantly cleaning floors, machines and weights. If we ever had a question for staff they have always been courteous when we reached out during staff hours. I just hate to see negative reviews on places that I think are doing a wonderful job. I highly recommend this gym.

Bathrooms/showers are not clean. Gym smells dirty. There are definitely cleaner gyms. Employees aren’t customer focused.

I recommend finding a better gym.

Hey Sarah,

I saw your review, and I wanted to respond as a fellow gym-goer. I'm a 35-year-old guy who has been working out at Performance Fitness for a while now, and I have to say, I don't really see things the same way.

First off, I want to clarify that the church has nothing to do with this gym. Honestly, probably 3/4 of the members aren't even LDS. The gym is just a place where people from all backgrounds come to work out.

I get that gym etiquette can be a mixed bag sometimes, but from what I've seen, the staff does a pretty good job maintaining cleanliness and order. Sure, there are times when people leave towels on machines or hog weights, but that's pretty common in any gym. The key is to be a bit patient and communicate with others when needed.

About the sauna, some people do use it as part of their workout routine. It's not really a bad thing, just a different approach. I think calling out management for not caring might be a bit harsh. They're trying to cater to a wide range of fitness needs and habits.

Honestly, it feels like your review comes off a bit entitled and negative. Instead of tearing the place down, maybe consider giving constructive feedback. Every gym has its issues, but I think Performance Fitness is doing a decent job overall.

And seriously, if you don't like how things are here, maybe take your prejudices elsewhere or consider leaving the state. Heavens knows we have too many people like you moving in from different states.

Just my two cents.

Best,
Matthew White

We moved here a year and half ago from MA. Performance fitness was in our backyard so it was convenient. We have never seen such a horribly managed gym on the planet. The gym etiquette is the worst we have ever seen!! Granted they're very thorough with the cleanliness, but other than that we do not recommend this gym for anyone who is serious about training. They have a list of rules on the wall that they don't abide by at all and people do whatever they want. There's no
Repercussions. It's obvious that the LDS community sticks together regardless of what's right. There's a ton of DRAMA in this gym. People put towels on machines and think they own it while walking away for 15 min, there's people who WORKOUT and SLEEP in the sauna - the management doesn't care!!!! People hoard multiple sets of weights, people dont wash their hands after the bathroom!!! Not recommended!!!!!

It's clean had a lot of equipment. For me the best part is it's open 24/7. I am a night person. Also I don't like going to fitness centers during busy times.
