Warriors Playground is the best gym in the Durham/Raleigh area. Barrett is a great trainer who creates new routines to keep you entertained and get you out of boring gym habits. Not only that, the community is supportive and great!

This place is amazing! Each and every workout is unique and keeps you engaged the entire time. Barrett puts in time and energy into planning each class to be fun and challenging and will happily accommodate different skills levels. The community is wonderful and will even do canoeing together for a workout! I highly recommend this place for an energetic, unique, and challenging workout.

I give Warriors Playground five stars(*****). Barrett is dedicated to providing variety in each workout and is also committed to ensuring that you receive a full body workout. I enjoy all the workouts, but the cardio and strength combo workouts are my favorite. If you commit to the workout routine, you will definitely see improvement in your overall fitness and strength. Warriors Playground is the best kept secret in the RTP area.

I've been an active member of this gym since May 2019, and it's been the best decision i've made in awhile. It's a group setting that offers Cardio, Strength, and boxing classes. It's tough, but you get the results you pay for. The owner is great without being overly pushy and the members are great. i highly encourage anyone looking for a gym to check our Warriors Playground.

Warriors Playground is one of the Triangle's best kept secrets. Extremely convenient location and time options. Barrett offers creative, fun workouts that challenge your fullest potential. Full body exercise routines change all the time and targets different muscle groups. Safe, controlled training environment where you are constantly pushed to your limits. Whether your goal is to lose weight, gain muscle mass, improve endurance/speed, Warriors Playground can help you reach ALL of your fitness needs. By far, one of the best places I have trained at.

I've been coming to Warrior's Playground multiple days out of the week for almost a month now and might I say that I have not gotten bored yet! I really like that each class has a different combo of exercises every day, which allows my body to maximize muscle growth. The high intensity interval workouts have really given me a fun way to get my cardio in, which is usually something I dread. Barrett has really been an amazing trainer, in that he really helps me to maximize results with his constant encouragement, always challenging me to do better and give the exercises my all. In the short time that I have been coming here, I've already seen a huge improvement in my stamina, strength, and my ability to sweat (didn't know I had it in me to produce so much, but leave it to Barrett to find a way). I've been approaching my fitness goals quicker than I expected. I think I have found a new gym home! I would highly recommend the Warrior's Playground to anyone looking for a challenge who doesn't like being bored and wants to be motivated by Barrett to do your best in order to reach your goals and get fit!

I had a pleasure of working out with the team here for the last 6 months. The experience and transformation is phenominal. Both Barrett and Howard are exceptional coaches and their encouragement and giving confidence to push yourself is praise worthy. The team here is extremely positive and working out here is fun and drenching at the same time. As getting fit is mostly personal behaviour and associating yourself with great team can make all the difference. The workout style here is so different everyday that it never seemed monotonous. It is also very affordable without draining your wallet. I am glad that I was able to associate with them in transforming my life style. Would highly recommend this place for anybody looking for a change and ready to take actionable measures.

I love this gym. It brings me back to gym class back in grade school with old school equipment but with a twist. The owner is so innovative with the circuit training that it never gets boring. Both challenging and customizable workouts for all levels of fitness. Everyone is welcome. 100% recommend this awesome place.

The gym is kept well and clean, He make sure he switch up exercises for everyone's needs and make it fun. I will recommend anyone to Warriors Playground.

The owner Barrett is a poor trainer, and an even more incompetent businessman.

Two weeks into my first promotional month, he stops me after class and tells me that today is my last day. I was in utter shock. His reason was poor and unprofessional. He claimed that I was "too mouthy" for him and that our energies didn't mesh.

I didn't bother to argue with him and simply left. I had no type of warning from him at all, he simply jumped straight to a final measure and revoked my membership. I tried looking in the mirror and figuring out why before getting angry. Why would he react in such a harsh way so suddenly?

The worst thing I could've said to him was when he asked me to run before class one cold morning. I replied to him that if I wanted to run, I wouldn't have purchased a gym membership. Instead, I warmed up on a cardio machine.

I never once cursed at the guy, or any of the other members. I never once threatened Barrett or any other member. The reality is just that he was a sensitive guy. Running a gym.

As a paying customer, I should be able to warm up or not run when I want. That is business. That is why he is a poor businessman. Also closing out a membership for a paying customer is another reason he is a poor businessman.

As a trainer, he likes to challenge people by telling them they are slowing down. That's fine, I guess. But he regularly loses focus while leading groups and forgets the moves, sets, or reps. I jokingly called him out on it when he was challenging me directly once. But perhaps he took that to heart.

But I take my fitness seriously. If I am going to pay this businessman, even if he is a poor businessman then I want him to take my investment seriously. Which Barrett didn't.

The concept of the gym itself is great. It is a group based circuit training gym, which there aren't enough of. But the incompetent owner doubling as a bad businessman ruins it all. Stay away.

I love this gym!
I found Warriors Playground by google searching gyms in the RTP area and luckily found WP. They offer your first month at a discounted rate so you can try out all of the classes and schedules to make sure its the right fit for you. I appreciate this greatly! The classes alternate between cardio days and weight days with a Tabatha type lay out (55 sec on 20 sec off) which is great for cardiovascular endurance. When I started , I was 16 weeks pregnant and Barrett, the owner, and the other instructors were great at modifying any exercises I was unable to do as I continued on in my pregnancy. Every class is different and challenging so you don't plateau! Also, the people who attend the classes are super friendly and welcoming and make it fun to show up! I unfortunately will have to take a leave of absence just due to my work and travel schedule conflicting with the current class schedule but I definitely plan to return in the fall once my baby is here and thing with travel die down! highly recommend this gym!!

This is a great gym to go to if you're looking for a non traditional approach to fitness. I started going to Warriors Playground about 2 months ago and I've never finished a workout not feeling like I wasn't pushed. The workouts are very challenging but suitable for people of all fitness levels. The owner Barrett is great and is welcoming of all gym goers.

We moved to the RTP area about 4 years ago and after 3 years of looking for a good gym, I joined Warriors Playground. Barrett is AMAZING! Each and every class is different. I've seen a dramatic difference in my body since joining. I tried lots of different gyms and boot camp programs around the area and this is by far the best. Anyone looking for a challenging and fun workout should check it out!

I love going to Warrior's Playground! The gym members are such a positive and inviting but that you instantly feel comfortable. The people are also are very encouraging and are great accountability buddies! The trainers push you to work hard and test your limits. My time at Warrior's has been nothing but enjoyable (and sweaty, haha)!!

I have been coming to Warriors Playground for over a year now and the change in my strength and body are more than I imagined. While the work out is always difficult, it's set up so you can do just enough that it's challenging every time. The support I received from the trainers was great, but the other people that I work out with are like a family. Many of them have been coming for years, but they are always welcoming and supportive of new people who come in. It's a great place to start your journey to a healthier, stronger you. A new location has just opened and it's even better.

Warriors Playground provides a great workout with interesting, varied exercises that challenge you to the point to reach your fitness goals. I highly recommend it!
