Champions Sports Center 1707 Purchase Street, New Bedford, MA 02740

"Gym would be nice if the owner would reinvest in the place. They have old outdated equipment. They have not brought in any new weight training machines since the place opened. The equipment they have is old ragged and falling apart. Typical gym business protocols are to invest a certain amount of profits back into the gym to upgrade equipment every year or every couple of years. The way the owner treats this gym is the same as a slumlord treats their properties. And people still give good reviews because they're used to it's mediocrity. Reinvest in your gym and buy some new pieces. You need at least two new chest machines, two new back machines, two new leg machines and two new shoulder machines. AT LEAST!!!! PLEASE!!!!"

"Machines are getting a little worn a few not working, a little tight but all business obviously for those serious about getting seriously fit or ready to perform. everybody could not be nicer or more helpful, staff or members, best for the money even if it is no frills."

"Very accommodating. If you are looking for a larger club which offers all services and amenities possible then the YMCA of new bedford would be your first choice. However, I strongly recommend a visit to Champions Fitness prior.The amenities offered (indoor soccer field, basketball court, daycare, juice/shake bar and popular supplement lines) are executed with more precision, insight and greater consideration since it a smaller, more personable club. Too many services often muddle clubs and as a club-goer I find myself never taking advantage of half that's offered, since myself and every guest have subjective fitness goals that oftentimes work into weekly routines. What makes or breaks a club overall is great service, staff and price. Champions exceeds expectations in all 3 departments."
