Genesis Gym

My husband and I signed up with Genesis in June 2025 when we were finally determined to become healthier, stronger and happier with our look and stamina at age 50+. We did extensive search online looking for the most suitable gym and training program in our neighborhoods and Genesis' ads popped up. We read through the website and Google reviews, and decided to give it a try. We met with the head of Katong gym, Jen, and felt very confident about the training program he explained to us. In the next few sessions, we just fell in love with the atmosphere of the gym, the dedicated and professional trainers, and those passionate trainees that were just like us - with the determination to become the healthier selves. We like how the trainers rotate among members each time (you get good tips from different trainers), and the programs are designed tailored to your strength level and goals with advice on your diet. The systematic training ensures results at the end of each 8-session program. We now have been with Genesis for more than half a year, and are very happy with the progress we've made so far. We have recommended Genesis to many of our friends. It's definitely for people that are serious about workouts.

Highly Recommended for Personalized Results! Genesis Gym is truly in a league of its own. What immediately sets them apart is their dedication to individualized training programs. You don't get a generic, cookie-cutter plan here; the coaches take the time to build a precise roadmap tailored specifically to your body, lifestyle, and unique goals. But the real magic is the coaching. Their team provides great expertise, accountability, and the necessary guidance to help you push past plateaus and consistently move closer to hitting your targets. If you're serious about your fitness journey and want a team that is deeply invested in your personal success, Genesis Gym is absolutely the place to be.

I took up gym training with Genesis about half a year ago and the experience has been nothing short of wonderful! With the dedication of the trainers and the structured strength programs, it has been a great journey so far. Thank you Genesis! I'll certainly without hesitation recommend friends.

Highly recommended for seniors like myself (in my 70’s) seeking improvement in mobility, balance and strength in our daily activities. Having to struggle and bearing with the pain,in climbing up and down stairs, taking a stand position from sitting down, painful walks,due to arthritis, I also had poor balance due to bad posture. To my amazement, after completing a 12 week programme at Genesis, with the encouragement of their professional and super supportive coaches, I can proudly say that my strength has increased, my balance has greatly improved and my energy level reached a new height! I’m so happy to experience the change in my lifestyle and to be able to feel young again! Definitely shall be continuing to work out with you guys! Kudos to the team of coaches at Genesis, Katong!

We have been with Genesis Gym for about 3 months. We chose this gym because it’s near our home and it’s friendly towards people over 50. We are new to strength training with weights in a gym setting. It did feel a little intimidating at first. The doubt was quickly squashed by the dedicated team of trainers, who helped us manoeuvre through the little jungle of gym equipment and got us to the right form for each exercise. They also have an app that shows the personalized exercises for each of us and keeps track of our progress. At the end of each 4- to 8- week program, measurements would be taken to check on the actual physical results. A counseling session on diet & nutrition would also take place at the same time. The age range of the people working out at this gym varies from the teens to the 70s! But there is a slightly higher concentration of folks in the middle range. There are some obvious seasoned athletes that lift way above the average folks. Having said that, you wouldn’t feel out of place no matter what age or in what fitness level you are. The trainers are a fun but also very professional bunch of guys (no female trainers, bummer!). A shout out to Jerome for taking great care of my prior injuries and existing issues. He would tweak the exercises to ensure they don’t aggravate them but at the same time achieving similar results. He’s also hilarious making training fun! And Malcolm, who just joined the gym has been able to explain the reasons behind the right forms so clearly that you can perform them with confidence after his adjustments. Of course, there is Jen, the manager of the Katong branch, the most serious (but friendly) one of all. He has the ability to elevate the energy level of the gym by just cheering people on from 10 ft away or correcting forms up close! In fact all other trainers have also been very proactive in offering help when you look a little lost or when the original trainer guiding you is busy with another client. On some occasions I would have to wait for a machine when several of us are given the same exercises. But it isn’t often. The physical space of Genesis is very basic. The focus is more on the quality of the training and less so on the experience of the physical space. All in all, I’d highly recommend this gym to people who want to get started on strength training and who want to see results.
