The Best Gyms in Nashville
QNTM Fit Life
Neighborhood: Downtown
From weights to cardio machines to indoor cycling to hydromassage lounges, this spot truly has it all. Standard membership gets you access to QNTM Fit Life’s 24-hour facility, free two-hour parking, and infrared saunas, among other amenities, while VIP adds in perks like yoga and barre classes.

Poe’s Gym
Neighborhood: The Nations
This gritty warehouse offers no frills (or air conditioning, FYI), focusing instead on the thrill of “throwback” powerlifting and strength training. Its website declares that Rocky Balboa might’ve worked out here, but many of Poe’s members are newbies who are learning the ropes of a proper, safe workout—so no one should feel intimidated.

- Primary membership: $79 per month with a one-year commitment, plus fees
- Pay As You Go membership: $119 per month, plus fees
- The Nations resident membership: $69 per month with a one-year commitment, plus fees

- Partner memberships available for $120 per month
Takes 2 Fitness

- Partner membership: $44.99 per month, plus $125 enrollment fee

Neighborhoods: city-wide
With eight local locations equipped with gyms, there’s usually a Y not too far from work or home, and they all get the job done in varying capacities.
