From the reviews

I was looking for a new gym in April, and found Kentucky Gym at their Lexington location. Kentucky Gym is perfect for anyone looking to get more serious about weightlifting or working out in general. They offer some great classes, clean facilities, and a variety of equipment for any type of workout.

★★★★★ — Jillian, Sep 2024

Best gym! Clean, stocked full of weights and constantly improving the experience for the members. You’ll love it in here, we’re all one big fit family! They offer boxing classes and yoga also!!!

★★★★★ — Damen, Mar 2025

My favorite gym in the area. I actually drive 25 minutes from Lexington to come to this location specifically. With membership, you get access to all 3 anyway. It’s very clean and has all the amenities I want at a reasonable price without annual fees, sign up fees, etc. There are classes too like pilates and boxing.

★★★★★ — Duayna, Mar 2026

Love this gym! The owner is very personable. Super kind! The people who go here are very nice and non-judgemental (at least not that I have noticed). As an overweight female, this is very important to me. The equipment is clean. The boxing classes are AMAZING!!!! Love the sauna!!!

Your first kickboxing class at Kentucky Gym

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
