Chuze Fitness

Imagine yourself… making eye contact with the staff and ready to say bye. The attendants make no eye contact and so you just move on forward. Out of nowhere, the front desk jabbers a quick «BYE!» without any contact, their body full oriented away from you. Abnormal body language isn’t it? You’re now stuck with a dilemma. You’re half-​way through the door, about to exit. You turn your head quickly. Should I say bye or should I just move on? You, my friend, have left me in such an awkward position.
There are some pretty expensive fees in these gym that they don’t tell you initially. Allow me to go over the membership fees for all you Unilocalers, my friend.
CHUZE HAS 2 MEMBERSHIP RATES FOR YA’LL W/​SOME FEES THEY DON’T TELL YOU ON ADVERTISEMENTS (UNTIL YOU SIGN UP AT THE GYM THAT IS)
1. Basic: $ 9.99/month for «access to all facilities except access to kids area, pool, hydromassage, tanning»
2. Premium: $ 19.99/month for «access to all facilities except access to kids area, pool, hydromassage, tanning» + bring a guest anytime (keep in mind that this is only from Thursday to Sunday. They don’t tell you this though FYI BEWARE!)
On top of that. They’ll charge you a $ 39.99 annual fee every year, depending on which day you signed up for the membership. There is also a fee to open an account as well.
If you choose to go for the $ 9.99/month membership, your «opening account» fee is $ 49.99.
If you choose to go for the $ 19.99/month membership, your «opening account» fee is $ 39.99.
Off topic: Anyone seeing a pattern here? They put 99 cents after your fee so that it seems $ 1 less ($ 49.99 does sound a lot better than $ 50 lol)
SUMMARY:
Basic Membership
$ 9.99 (monthly + $ 49.99 (start up aka «open account» fee) + $ 39.99 (annual fee)
–1 year’s worth of membership: $ 120
–Approximtely $ 17.50/month (even though they say it’s $ 10/​month … because of other fees)
«Premium» Membership
$ 20 (monthly) + $ 39.99 (start up aka «open account» fee) + $ 39.99 (annual fee)
–1 year’s worth of membership: $ 240
–Approximately $ 26.67/month (even though they say it’s $ 20/​month… because of other fees)
If you’re looking for another gym. You might as well just go to costco and buy the 2-​year membership for 24 hour fitness. Did the math and it’s $ 15/​month instead of the hidden fees here that accrue to way more than the advertisement states.

Great price for a fitness facility! Open 24 hours Mon-​Thurs and 6am-​8pm Fri-​Sun. I have premium ($ 20) which gives me access to all chuze, fitness classes, hydro massage, pool, sauna, tanning bed, & guest access fri-​sun.
Weekdays —
Not busy: 8am-​3pm
Moderate: 4−5pm
Hella busy: 5−8pm
Not busy: prob any time after 8−9pm
Weekends are pretty dead!
The facility is clean, staff are nice, and the guests are not intimidating unlike 24 hour fitness. All the equipment are in excellent condition and are constantly being cleaned. No squat racks but they’ve got smith machines and cable equipments. They’ve even got a cardio cinema room which is basically a movie theatre filled with cardio machines, how cool is that!
My favorite is the spin/​cycle room because it’s equipped with awesome bikes that allows you to change the resistance level. The cycle class is BOMB & Felicia makes sure you’re drenched in sweat at the end of your work out.
My only complaint is that 1) the wifi doesn’t ever seem to work 2) they don’t have lockers with numbers on them already like in Fullerton so ya gotta bring your own lock.
Nonetheless, still a bang for your buck!

I would give this place 5 stars if it were not for some of the gym members. The free weight area is RIDICULOUS! Anytime from 5:00PM to 11:00PM yes 11:00PM it’s ridiculously crowded! I’m assuming all those dudes who hog the floor for 2 hours don’t mind being shoulder to shoulder breathing on each other BUT I MIND! I need my space! I’ve been there multiple times up until 11:00PM waiting for the floor to clear out and no luck. I started coming at 4:00 in the morning and it’s EMPTY. I LOVE IT! No one breathing behind me! It’s very clean and the staff is nice.

Friday nights here are my favorite night! It’s never too busy for a machine and the service is always so good! Michael at the front desk was so accommodating and so nice! I especially appreciate him helping me and my friend out!

My only complaint is that they don’t show the Ellen DeGeneres show. When I asked the front desk they said they do however that’s a negative. Oh well.

I was so reluctant to even join a gym, but I browsed around and figured this was my best option and I must admit that I’m very happy I made the commitment. On top of the gym always being clean, the staff there are so kind and welcoming! They made me feel all the more comfortable and confident to keep coming back and affirm I made the right decision. From the moment I walked through the door they were joyful and not intimidating at all. I look forward to staying here and I’m glad this is my gym.

The best Chuze experience was found here compared to three other locations I’ve worked out At! Not only is it huge and roomy here but the service is wonderful, thanks Matthew! If I were to compare the staff here to the ones in the CHAPMAN location, chapman loses big time. My new go to spot

I used to go to 24 Hr Fitness’ Super Sports. I can say Chuze Fitness has the best value for your buck. I signed up for a year premium membership, which cost me $ 280. This breaks down to $ 20 a month and annual fee $ 40 (~$ 23.33 per month total). The facilities they have here are impeccable, state of the art, and very CLEAN. They pride themselves in being the cleanest gym and ask that every patron wipes their machines after use. I love that because at 24 Hr, I would see guys leaving a body imprint of sweat on the benches. In addition, my membership here includes free hydromassages, free tanning room, access to their swimming pool/​sauna, and cycling/​fitness classes, bring a guest for free (fri-​sun at this location).
The hydro massages are what you usually see at your local malls. They’re beds which you lie on and they pump pressured water up the bed, which massages your body. You can adjust the pressure, speed, and areas you want to massage. This is a cool feature that my old gym doesn’t have. I don’t tan so I can’t comment on the tanning machines.
Also, every time I come to this location (even during traffic time), there’s always a machine available. It doesn’t get packed to capacity like some other gyms do. In addition, they section out the machines for abs, legs, running, arms, etc. This helps your average joe who just wants to work on abs all day so they stay in the abs section.
Lastly, the best perk in my opinion is that you get to bring a guest in for free. This only applies to the premium membership. So even though I pay $ 23.33 a month, I get to bring a gym buddy with me. It promotes moral support and gets me going to the gym more often. I’ve only signed up for a few weeks so far, but I’m sure glad I did.

So I have a bad back, no Cartledge in knee and previous injury to my foot. The doctor says I need exercise but all I can do is swimming and walking forward and backward in a lap pool. I checked out all of the gyms in the area and Chuze seemed very nice. Unfortunately the pool area is small and populated with old creepy Asian men who just hang out, stare unnecessarily at the young girls trying to work out and watch TV in the spa. I usually have no problem ignoring them and share a lane with someone but today this grumpy old man kicked me out of his lane because I was walking and swimming not just swimming then another man was swimming and hocking Phlegm out of the pool onto the deck. Todays work out was unpleasant and gross!

I’ve been chuze member for 6 months and here’s my review, everything is okay here, the staff are nice, the room is clean, there’s peoples cleaning everything everyday
The only thing bother me is i just HATE the morning-​afternoon music, at night the music is nice, i mean seriously i dont know who mix the morning-​afternoon music here but it’s SUCK, are they even listening to their own music here ?!?
And i’m really tired of naked old people standing in front of every locker room, i know it’s happend everywhere, but COME ON !!!

Good for the price
For 9.99 one location. 19.99 for all.
Usually machines and equipment are well kept.
They do not have actual bench press or squat racks that is the only problem here. You have to get use to using a smith machine. The pool is really nice though only 2 lanes.

Getting better. place is staying cleaner. So i’ll give credit where it’s due. but lately I’ve been going earlier and at least 1 if not all of the toilets are out of paper and butt gaskets. Theres 2 huge commercial rolls and like 500 gaskets in a pack. granted all those supplements make you crap your brains out. but this has to be hours upon hours to have all of these go empty with no one checking on them. even mc donalds has them checking on the restroom every hour. come on guys you take care of one thing and others fall to the wayside. almost there keep it up!

I’ve been a member of Chuze for about 3 months, and I am completely happy! I’m glad I decided to join. This is one of the cleanest gyms I’ve ever belonged to. With that said they have numerous spray bottles and paper towel dispenser so we can clean and wipe up after ourselves. I see staff frequently vacuuming and dumping trash. Including wipes down bathrooms.
I appreciate that they have a generous amount of cardio machines so their is never a wait or that you have to cut your workout short because someone is waiting. I do try and come earlier in the day as they can get very busy.
Last thing I’d like to say is, the staff is very friendly! They are always greeting you with a smile and a hello. They’re approachable and helpful! It’s the little things that make me love Chuze.

I’ve been with LA fitness for SO long it was called Bally’s. We recently moved to Anaheim and the closest location near me was 8 miles away. I know myself and if it’s not around the corner from me, I’ll start making excuses and end up not going (stop judging me) :P
I decided to have my Unilocal friends help me out and There were 3 gyms by me BUT Chuze had the best reviews/​price.
Went in to check the gym out and everyone was so kind. I believe David (oh gosh, I forgot your name!) helped me out and prob spent a good 20 mins with me explaining everything and walking me around the gym. He was so informative and wasn’t pushy at all!
Of course I ended up joining so here’s the DL:
$ 10– very basic; only machines and free weights sections
$ 20-​any locations, swimming pool, classes, machines, weights, sauna, cinema cardio room, circuit workout area, ab area, unlimited hydro massage and 9 mins max per day standup tanning beds (googles are required $ 3 at the front-​reusable) and a free workout with a trainer.
There is a $ 35-​$ 40 one time fee per year charge on top of your $ 20 per month fee. Which turns out to be $ 3.33 extra a month. I would just rather have them add that to my monthly fee so I’m not surprised when they pull $ 60 out that month (anniversary date) but whatever!
They are working on putting a basketball court at one of the locations per «David»
No cancellation fees (after a year with them) and if cancelled before, I believe he said it was $ 50.
Everything is clean, there’s always someone with a vacuum backpack on walking around and cleaning. Although the restroom stall that I went into the other day and out of seat covers and toilet paper. Other than that, I would totally recommend if you’re just here for a basic workout!

I’ve been coming to this gym for about a year and a half now. I also have a 24hr Fitness pass and used to go to the one across the street on the other side of Chapman, but ever since this gym opened Ive been coming to this one almost exclusively. Only reason I still have the 24hr pass is to go with my friends that have it or when i want to lift heavier weights without it being on the Smith Machine.
This gym is by far the cleanest I’ve been to. Every 24hr I’ve gone to is always really dirty and the restrooms are always horrible. I notice they clean this gym all the time and it shows.
The gym however isn’t as big as other gyms like 24, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in equipment. It has everything you need to workout every body part. They don’t have regular squat racks but the Smith Machines they do have are very versatile. They also have a cardio cinema which I enjoy, when there’s a high action packed movie it makes the cardio time go by really fast.
If youre looking for a new, clean gym to try out give this one a try!

I absolutely love this gym. My fiancé is the member here and his membership includes bringing in a guest each visit which is awesome! With all the other gyms costing an arm and a leg for just ONE member, this gym is super affordable and it includes 2 members. Although I must mention that guest access is limited to just the general gym area. All the machines. The pool, sauna, classes, and locker room are not accessible but it works for me. If I wanted to get full membership myself, its still just $ 20 a month. There might be a one time registration fee but we didnt have to pay it due to a special our gym was having during its Grand Opening.
I cant speak for the other locations but this one is great. I havent had a problem with busy times yet, theres plenty of treadmills. Occasionally youll have to wait for a certain machine but people here are so courteous and dont hog the machines for long.
I love that they separate their workout areas. There weights section has plenty of benches and sets of each weight to go around. My favorite is the ab section. Great machines and theyve recently added the total gym core machine. LOVE IT!
Theres a cool cardio media room that plays different movies everyday. BEST part of the whole gym? Clean clean clean! Theres paper towel dispensers and cleanser bottles everywhere and members are great at wiping down machines after each use. Plus I always see the employees going around vacuuming and cleaning.
Speaking of employees, theyre super friendly and welcoming. Great attitude and always on top of things.
Theres also a kids play sections for parents to leave their children while they workout.
I cant comment on the locker rooms, classes, or pool because I dont have access to them but my fiancé hasnt had any complaints. I believe theres also a hydro massager room.
So all in all, a perfect gym for me. Thanks, Chuze!
And for the rude ass person that left a crap review and made the ignorant assumption that those of us who rated well havent been to a better gym… I used to work for LA Fitness AND was a member at 24 Hour fitness. Neither of those gyms were as clean or had better employees. Not to mention, there was constantly an issue with getting a machine during night hours. I havent had that issue at Chuze. She may be right about the Sauna room but hey, its $ 20 friggin bucks. It already exceeds all expectations in other areas. Id rather pay a low price and put up with a dinky sauna room ill rarely use or a 10 min hydro machine than pay a crap ton for smelly dirty gym with a lack of machine access when I go.

Got here at 7 am pretty decent sized crowd
Clean gym nice equipment
Came in today for a free day pass and the employee I the front was rude and short … The web site said something about a gym tour personal training session ect ect ect I got none of that … He took my DL I’m not sure why and didn’t explain anything I guess you get what you pay for.

Great gym for a great price. I have the premium package for $ 19.99 a month and that comes with access to classes, water bed massager, tanning, access to all locations. Some other great amenities are the movie theatre cardio room, (they’ve shown 50 first dates so brownie points for that!), sauna, steam room, pool, and jacuzzi.
It’s very clean for a gym and doesn’t have that pungent smell of sweat when you enter the building. There’s cleaning bottles and paper towels for you to wipe down the machine after use. The staff here is also ridiculously friendly. Expect to get a hello and goodbye whenever you come and go.
One thing I do want to point out about this gym is that most of the machines are NOT free weight. In my opinion, Chuze is great for women. For men who are trying to get the «gainz» this is definitely not the gym for you. For this reason, I’m giving this place 4 stars.

This review is only for the one visit I had to Chuze. My friend told me that this place was holding a special offer where every person can visit the gym once for free. A gym junkie myself, I couldn’t pass down this offer. You literally just submit a form online.
Now I’ve only been to several gyms in my life, and so I never really have high expectations. I only look for service, facilities, and atmosphere. I pretty much got most of that when I came to Chuze. With the offer, you just show your ID and take a picture. The people at the front greet you and even ask you how you are.
Now I remember when this gym used to be an electronics market, but now the space is for the gym. It’s not the biggest place, but it certainly has what you would want. There are at least 30 treadmills and a bunch of weight facilities for you to go crazy on. Last but not least, there’s a pool and cardio rooms.
I really enjoyed my only experience here. Everyone was nice, place is clean, and I didn’t have to fight for a treadmill. The only downside is that the place is small, and they ran out of towels fast. But the cool atmosphere and kind service makes up for it.
If I have it correct, there’s a $ 40 activation fee if you want to have membership, and it’s 20 $ a month for premium (get everything like pool service) and $ 9 for basic membership.
Stay fit and prosper!!!

I love Chuze! I was fortunate enough to have to try a few different gyms prior to Chuze opening up in Orange County and all I can say is, «I’ve missed you!!» I used to go to this gym prior to moving to OC and frankly, I was fed up with gyms ran by high schoolers or looking like Nickelodeon threw up all over the place.
For $ 20 a month and an annual fee around $ 40 you can’t beat unlimited tanning/​hydro massage, spin classes, dance inspired workout classes, circuit area, abs/​core area, legit theatre, lap pool, jacquzzi, saunas and the ‘bring a guest for free’ privledge. This gym meets all your basic needs and provides you with modern equipment that are well maintained. Very clean and pretty accomodating considering that they’re open 24hrs/​day Monday through Friday.
I also need to point out that the staff greet you on the way in and wish you a good day on the way out. It’s the little things that keep me advocating for this gym and keep me one happy member!
I even appreciate the messages posted up on the wall like «The only weight you should be dropping should be from your belly» ! :D Great gym!
