Ford's Fitness Center

Awesome old-school gym -- lots of heavy weights, no ferns. The dead days of Ford's are finally over with a new owner who has stopped the ceiling leaks, recovered all the pads, cleaned and painted the place top to bottom, brought back reasonable opening times, added new equipment, and he actually cares about keeping the place the best gym in the city for serious weightlifting.

Awesome gym. It's been open since 1981 I think, all the equipment is old but they have pretty much everything you need. They also have a deadlift platform, which not a lot of gyms have. Really happy with this place, will definitely be coming back

This is old school, just get results type of gym. Don't come here if you're just looking to maintain (well to be fair, this gym has enough of that too), if you want to actually work for it...lots of required equipment and motivation

Was in Lexington for work and found this gem of a gym via google. If you like old school cool straight out of Pumping Iron this is your place. Very nice sized gym, lots of great equipment, some really nice vintage chain drive Nautilus machines, and all the right stuff for a great workout. Very reasonable $10 day pass. The staff were super nice and welcoming, it was never crowded, and everything was in good working order.I came here two days and got two great workouts in. This one I am saving for future stops in Lexington. 5 Stars!!!!
