Awesome facility. If you want it. They have it. Elite trainers and world class equipment.

I trained at Barkes Fitness for a few months earlier this year. The facility was great, had everything you could possibly ask for, and was clean. The trainers were also knowledgeable and personable. I was also set up with a meal plan that (when followed) gave me the results I wanted. Leg day on Saturday mornings was a beast, but well worth it! Pro tip: listen to what they're telling you!

Private Gym, requires a membership.

This place is AMAZING!! Big Ben and Amanda really know how to create an amazing friendly atmosphere for getting an awesome work out. Also, the one on one focus with nutrition and exercise programs are customized and built around my specific needs. Like no other gym I've ever attended! Thank you so much for the nutrition plans and personal training sessions! Total Game Changer!!

After 6 months, I feel healthier and more knowledgeable about nutrition and fitness. Thanks Amanda for getting the best out of me!

This is my home away from home! I have been with the Barkes duo for a year and a half now and I couldn't be more grateful. Between the family atmosphere and amazing workouts I wouldn't chose anywhere else to work on my dream to compete!

I found 'The Gym' a little more than a year ago now looking for a place that I could finally feel "at home", little did I know that in such a short span of time I'd come to feel so at home that I find myself there as much to work out as I am to spend time with my amazing gym family. Crazy. If you're looking for a light hearted, yet highly motivating environment with a vast mix of equipment and a team that will go above and beyond the call of duty to see you reach your goals then this is the place for you! Did I mention we have a giant chalkboard goal wall?!

This place has changed my life. I have been working out with Amanda a little over 2 years ago. She is somebody I would consider a sister to me. She pushes me even when I don't want to do it. I have never been this healthy in my life. I owe everything the Ben and Amanda for accepting me and my crazy life I have. ♡

One of the best, if not the best, gym in Indianapolis. The owners are genuine and personable, the atmosphere is incredible and they have some of the most useful equipment you can find. I also love the fact that it has 24/7 access. Seriously, check it out!

I'm so glad I found this place! They helped me get my nutrition on track, and they have helped me improve my technique; I have learned so much. It's such a comfortable atmosphere. I actually love going to the gym now!

I went to Barkes Fitness to speak with Ben. Immediately I was greeted by a member with jokes and laughter. This is not your traditional gym where you go to feel uncomfortable or afraid to give it your all. As I spoke with Ben, I watched members chatting and assisting others as they worked out. Very cool atmosphere.

Love this gym!!

Hannah Milano

These people are all super fun and motivating. They push you but are very supportive. They are super knowledgeable too. The gym has lot of equipment and it's really clean and laid out well. I haven't worked out that much and they've been really cool about explaining what to do and correcting my form.

I lost 100 pounds in 6 months because of Ben and Amanda. It works.

A lot of people ask how much time I spend at the gym everyday, prompting my query: " Are you asking how long I'm there? Or how long I workout?" This gym has room for the old school bodybuilder, the modern power lifter, the Olympic lifter, the yoga enthusiast, the silks performers, and anyone else who wants to join the fitness family. Hell, the gym even has a mini kitchen if you didn't get your meals prepped ahead of time, a massage table, break room, and a sauna. The kids room is a highlight for the little ones and accents the fact that the gym is a family friendly environment. Speaking of family, I need to answer my question. I spend about 3 hours in the gym. I catch up with Ben and Amanda for the first 30 minutes, if they're free, workout for an hour, perform any challenges Ben poses (I'll get around to my 1000 birthday burpees soon...), then either play with the kids or converse with other gym members in the break room for an extended period of time. As a member for almost 2 years, the staff and many other members have become my extended family. ❤️ It's a gym of people who are serious about fitness but can sit back and enjoy life. Sense of humor is required.
