Resolution Gym

The best thing about Resolution is the people. Lisa, Barrie, Andrew and many others will make sure you feel welcome. This is an «old-​school» gym with a lot of free weights and older machines that have some rust and wear-​and-​tear but are working most of the time. Upstairs there’s a nice open room for various classes. Next to BJ Penn’s, its probably the best value, and they actually have showers, which is nice, since most gyms in Hilo do not (which is ridiculous). Mornings are the best time to go, before it gets hot and crowded. Bonus: They are open 24 hours.

I should start off by saying, if you’re new to Hilo then you need to know that gyms are not up to par around here. There is one exception which is Penn’s Fitness. In my oppinion, nothing is even remotely comparable to their setup… However, Resolution Gym would be my second choice if I had to pick, including if you are looking for a smaller price tag and longer hours. It is small and basic but has a few perks… The biggest would be it’s open 24 hours (might be the only one around here?), has rare to find high tech infrared saunas, a few newer treadmills along with all the basic weight equipment you need. Weight equipment is rusted, older and a little rough on the eyes but definitely gets the job done. Price is reasonable and best value for that price range around here. No contract memberships, which is always a plus!
Location is also good, right next to Hilo bayfront,
If you are looking for a cheaper alternative to Penn’s, or something open 24 hours then this would definitely be a gym to check out =)
