As the largest private fitness club in Central Oregon, Athletic Club of Bend offers a wide variety of amenities, programs and classes for its members. In addition to all the typical cardio and strength training equipment, the facility features two gymnasiums, four pools, a women-only workout facility, seven indoor tennis courts, a restaurant, youth programs and much more. “But it’s our staff that really set us apart,” said Kip Heilman, the club’s general manager. “They have to be inviting, warm and willing to go the extra mile for the members when they need it. Our trainers, instructors and nutritionists are not just certified, but are all highly educated and knowledgeable in their field.”

The Athletic Club is also engaged with the local community, hosting public events including the summer concert series, cyclocross races, the start and finish of the annual Salmon Run and a transition point during the iconic Pole Pedal Paddle race.
