This is my favorite gym to come to. Devin the general manager is one of the best and kindest people ever. He is very welcoming and educating. The community at Power Fitness is amazing and inspiring. I would recommend for everyone to get a membership here and have this be your home gym! The gym has all of the equipment you will need to achieve your goals! Thank you for the continuous amazing experience.

I like this place. A couple gripes: the music is super loud and vulgar. If that's your thing, cool. If not, good luck trying to escape it. Also the hand soap in the bathroom has a strong chemical scent and is drying on the hands. Would be cool if they replaced it with something else. Otherwise, I really like this gym. They keep it up well and I'm excited for their expansion.

Beautiful gym. Ive been powerlifting for 4 years now and i have never had a gym that feels like home, until now. The community, the staff, equipment, energy everything, absolutely mint. Devin was extremely inviting from the start, and I am extremely excited for my future in this gym! Highly recommend if you are visiting or live in Santa Cruz!!

This is a very nice, serious bodybuilding and powerlifting gym - possibly the best in Santa Cruz. The staff and members are professional but courteous, so the vibe is very nice also for newcomers. Top notch equipment, in quality and quantity.

Been training at SCPF since 2021. I have always loved the environment, staff, and equipment. Everyone who works there is always so friendly. There's a real sense of community at this gym. Great equipment. There's so much of it that you rarely have to wait for the machine you want, if ever. I would highly recommend this gym to everyone. Whether you're just now beginning your fitness journey or a seasoned gym veteran, Santa Cruz Power Fitness is the place for you!

I was fortunate enough to find this diamond of a
Gym. If you’re reading this and you haven’t tried out this gym, do yourself a favor and check it out. I promise you won’t regret it. The office staff is 10/10. The Gym equipment is 10/10. The gym is always clean. The gym plates are always where they should be. The people who workout there are always ready to help if needed. I can’t say enough great things. Chris the owner, Devin the GM 10/10. Just wow….

2 Month Update: I never want to go home. I’ve started training with Emily. I’m 5’10 267lbs and have been working out almost 15 years consistently. She pushes me in ways I can never push myself. Emily is extremely knowledgeable and has my pumps lasting 2-3 days lol. I’ve made a couple new friends and I’m truly grateful to be a part of the community.

Great gym. The focus is weightlifting but it’s magic is it’s kind and supportive/non judgmental community. Especially how supportive the women are to each other. There are a good amount of “old timers” that guide the “yoots” in understanding that lifting is part of longevity.
The gym does need a place to stretch without exercise equipment around it because exercise takes priority over stretching and then it’s not a comfortable stretching area.

Travel for work, am in Santa Cruz for a few months. I found this gym through search. I specifically was looking for a gym with a sled and ski ergs. This gym has both, as well as comprehensive lifting equipment. The business hours are also very broad which I like since I work 13 hour shifts. Pricey sure, but it comes with a lot.
