About Us

Rep Fitness opened its doors in 2013 and has the Best Professional Personal Trainers on Whidbey Island. Our center provides the community with services that enhance your health and wellness.  As you walk into our doors, we immediately welcome you to our Rep Fitness Family. 

 

As a training center, we differentiate ourselves from a standard fitness gym because we operate from a quality of experience focus versus a pure volume model like most large clubs.  Here at Rep Fitness, if you don't show up, we'll be calling to find out why!  It's exactly this type of accountability that most people need to help them stick to a program and get great results!
