The Gym MPLS
We're not like your common gym. Founded in 2019 by the owner of Apex Personal Training, The Gym MPLS is a specialized Twin Cities training co-op for independent personal trainers to coach and instruct their clients. As a 7000 sq. We are a training-first facility. This is a place for personal trainers to grow their business, and we mean it.

We're the only gym in the Twin Cities that also provides marketing tools on top of gym space, including professional photography and videography. Whether you're an independent trainer looking for your own space, or a gym-goer looking for a new and tailored experience, The Gym MPLS is yours to call your home.
Services
We provide training options that are personalized to your needs, skills, and athleticism. Even in our group-settings we are sensitive about a person's unique physiology and current fitness abilities. No two bodies are the same, so no two workouts are the same. At the Gym MPLS, we bring out the athlete in everyone.
Welcome to one of the most intuitive customizable app-based fitness programs ever created. Apex Anywhere workouts are based on a survey that asks you key questions before delivering you a fully personalized workout. It begins with a long-term data intake survey, which you complete on the app as part of your registration.

Great gym, phenomenal equipment and the complete opposite of a typical commercial gym.
Honestly, this is the best gym that I’ve gone too in my experience at gyms. The crowd here is very friendly and the gym is seldom packed during the times I go. They have a large selection of dumbbells and a ton of high quality lifting plates. Hours are flexible and there are regular crew members who clean all the equipment and ensure the gym is clean which is very nice to see especially during these times.

If you're looking for an affordable gym that doesn't require you to sign an annual contract, take a look at The Gym Mpls. Ownership is very laid back, generous, committed to making improvements and has members best interest in mind. There is a wide variety of free-weight equipment, plenty of barbells and squat racks and enough machines to cater to those looking for safer exercise options.

The Gym Mpls is the perfect gym for my family. My son and I attend one of Joel's group training sessions each week and then we also workout on our own two other times each week. The gym itself is great with more equipment than you can imagine. There is no attitude at the gym, like I've seen at traditional big gyms. Each person is there for their… own reasons and goals. As for the training sessions, Joel is worth his weight in gold. We started working out with him last summer and each session he created an individual session. He has been great interacting with and encouraging my son. This

The Gym Mpls welcomes people of all fitness levels to train. They offer a variety of classes including HIIT and crossfit. I must emphasize the quality of the trainers--they really care! And they will call you out if you don't show up! With that said, I have been out of commission this month and Joel has checked in multiple times to ensure that I am improving. If you want a gym that pushes you and cares to help you reach your goals, this is the place!

The Gym Mpls is a space that is full of trainers that are inclusive and encouraging. No matter your fitness level there are trainers and classes for everyone. From High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) to Olympic Lifting, you are bound to find sessions that meet your needs. At The Gym Mpls, the community is serious about their health and… competing together (or against one another) to reach greater levels of strength and fitness. Management is dedicated to creating a space that welcomes new faces along with continuously improving relationships with regulars.

I’ve known Joel casually for a few years. When I first heard him interviewed, the host referred to him as a ‘Master Trainer’. She was so excited to know him. He is the trainer you always want to notice you. He is the real deal. He has such a heart for serving others and helping them reach their strength, body and nutritional goals. He is a guys guy & all the girls love him too. He’s an expert and I am so excited to get in shape at Gym Mpls!
