What People Are Saying About YMCA Embarcadero

In Short
This place attracts a suit-and-tie crowd, but lacks the snobbery of other yuppie gyms. The cardio equipment is located in two adjoining rooms and includes 18 treadmills and 14 Netpulse Internet-equipped stationary bikes. Another big plus is the five-lane, 25-meter pool; one of the largest in the city. Most of the group exercise classes are free. Others, such as Pilates, cost a nominal fee.

I have been a member of the Embarcadero YMCA for many years now. I love how the gym is always clean and never too busy. The staff always are offering new free classes to take. I highly recommend this gym to anyone that likes to workout in a clean and safe place.

I love my lunchtime break at the Embarcadero Y. Weather permitting I run along the Embarcadero then return for some strength work and a shower before going back to my office - refreshed and ready for a productive afternoon. If I have to run on a treadmill - at least I have a spectacular view of the bay. The staff are great. I'm working with a personal trainer and finally making improvements in my time. I love that my dues support community programs - given the choice, I'd always choose a Y over another type of facility.

They do not try to rip you off or to sell you anything here. People are not judgemental and are not constantly people watching - everyone just wants to get healthy. Also, there is a very nice complimentary "coach" program sponsored by the Y. The only minus of the place is that it could be cleaner (especially the pool/locker room area)
