I am new to Rivet, and it has been a great experience! I am currently doing Fit 30; I am moving into CrossFit next month.

What is great about Rivet:
--Gym has great equipment (including an AC)
--It is SO CLEAN
--The coaches are friendly and not intimidating
--I instantly made friends, and it is great to have a workout buddy or two to get me to the gym.

I really could go on and on, but if you want a good workout mixed with some friendly competition, you should definitely check this place out!

I dropped in during a conference in Portland. The space is very well thought out with lots of extra touches that make the whole experience feel great. The coaching was great and thorough. Great people and place to get some fitness.

If you are looking for a supportive, inspiring, and clean fitness experience, Rivet Athletic Club is the place to go. When I joined this fitness facility about a month and a half ago, I immediately noticed all the small touches that the owners Suzi and Robert have added, including cell phone chargers (BOTH iPhone and Android) in the storage cubbies, an assortment of beauty products near the shower area (including lotion, hair styling creams, and more), as well as feminine products, hair ties, and hair dryers in the bathrooms. They have a children's play area too.

But what really stood out to me, was the extremely supportive, welcoming, and non-judgmental attitude of both them, the trainers, and even the other gym-goers. The very first moment I walked into the gym I was asked my name by the trainer around at the time. The next time I walked through the doors about three days later, the same trainer was there and he greeted me warmly, "Hello Talia, how are you today?" I was very surprised that after meeting me very briefly he had remembered my name. The whole experience has been this way though because the people really care about you and your progress.

On the fitness side of things, you will find no shortage of inspiration from those who have long been riding the crossfit train or those who just decided to give it a try. The workouts are super customizable so you can truly get a workout that feels right for you and helps you achieve your specific goals.

One of my favorite things about the gym (and honestly the reason I decided to join this gym over others I was looking at) was that they have a body scanner and their current promotional deal comes with two included scans - one for when you first start and one for when your 30-day promo trial ends. I've struggled a lot in the past with sticking to a routine simply because I'm not sure if I'm getting results.

At the start of this experience, my goal was not necessarily to lose weight but to tone my body and create new muscle. I committed myself to 1 hour of biking every day (work commute) and the Fit30 crossfit class M-F. At the end of my first 30 days, I definitely felt stronger but I'd stepped on the scale a few times and noticed that my weight had gone up slightly, not down. I was nervous to go into the body scan because I was afraid I wouldn't like my results. However, I could not have been happier: I had lost 5 lbs of fat and gained 5 lbs of muscle in 30 days alone. I was extremely proud and have since become a big believer in body scans because they help you understand the true progress that you're making.

This experience was topped off by the fact that the owners of the gym went out of their way to congratulate me on the results and encourage me to keep making progress.

An truly amazing gym that I would recommend for anyone with fitness goals.

Great facility, awesome coaches with great education on not only fitness but diet as well. Very kid friendly and a great place to get in a quick workout that is conveniently located.

Love the half hour Strength & Conditioning class at Rivet! It's a full non-stop action packed half hour certain to challenge you.

Loved dropping in this box! I do quite a bit of traveling for work... and this place had such a great community feel to it. Rivet Athletic Club has an AWESOME coaching staff who made me feel so welcome when I walked in.
If I lived closer this would definitely be my gym! Loved all the positive attitudes and the great workout! If you're ever in the area, please check this place out!! Thanks again Suzi!

Love this gym! The staff is incredibly warm and welcoming, and makes you feel at home from day one. I have tried many different fitness programs and found it hard to stick to any of them. The atmosphere here makes you want to keep coming back!

I dont write many reviews, but this is by far one of the nicest, cleanest and well put together gyms I've been too so Im taking the time to do it some justice. (I am in no way affiliated with this gym BTW, I am an honest patron)
I first stopped in two weeks ago to check them out because its right on my way home from work and was blown away! Ive been watching this place go in, driving by it for what seemed like several months....now I know why. The place is epic! Huge ceiling, tons of space and natural light. (Im a bit of a nerd about design and feng shui)
I finally signed up online for the three days of free classes a week later and and had my first class yesterday morning. The trainer Scott was awesome! Super passionate, knowledgable and motivating. The class was fun, interesting as well as challenging. Myself, being in health and wellness industry and running my own practice for many years, Ive become VERY picky about where and who I train with. He dis a good job of making it challenging for me (Im in very good shape) as well as making it very approachable for others in the class who were at lower fitness levels.
The woman at the front desk was one of the owners and she was very warm and welcoming. This place has a sweet family/community vibe about it, but also a has high quality feeling from top to bottom. They even have cubbies with cell phone chargers!! Also theres a shower...big plus and rare to find in box gyms these days. You can tell they have paid a lot of attention to detail with this place and spared no expense from equipment to the over all design. Very impressed, cant recommend enough.

I have been going to this gym for several months. It is a fantastic facility, with great coaches and great members. There is a continual feeling of both accomplishment and learning as we progress through different movements and techniques. I highly recommend this gym. I have never felt intimidated due to my skill level, and leave each class a sweaty mess.
