Five minutes on foot from Saginomiya Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line.
The first impression is cleanliness — a newer facility that has not yet accumulated the wear of older locations on this route.
No water server, four adjustable benches with comfortable availability, and an equipment lineup that covers the basics without much depth. No leg press machine. The floor is well-maintained and easy to navigate, but the machine variety feels limited relative to the newness of the space. A short walk in either direction after training leads to Koenji or Nakano — both worthwhile neighborhoods for food and atmosphere. The post-gym walk ended with a bowl of abura soba, which turned out to be the highlight of the visit.
A clean, functional gym best suited to members who live nearby.

Access
A 5-minute walk from Saginomiya Station on the Seibu Shinjuku Line. A standalone ground-floor gym in a quiet residential area. No water server, but convenience stores are nearby — preparation before arrival is straightforward. The location sits between the calm of Saginomiya and the energy of Koenji and Nakano, both accessible on foot or by train.
Facilities & Atmosphere
Single-floor layout. The gym is notably new and well-maintained — the kind of clean interior that makes training feel more effortless. Smith/power rack stations: 4. Adjustable benches: 4. The Life Fitness lineup is consistent and easy to use, with smooth operation across all machines.
One gap worth noting: no leg press. For those who rely on it as a core lower body exercise, this will require a workaround. The body composition scale is a useful addition that not every gym at this level includes.
Overall, the space feels considered rather than packed — equipment is arranged with enough room to move between stations without crowding.
How Busy Does It Get?
Quiet. This is one of the less crowded gyms on the pilgrimage. The clientele skews toward local regulars, and the atmosphere is calm and focused. Benches were available without any waiting. For those who prefer training without an audience or a queue, this gym delivers.
The Surrounding Area
Saginomiya is a settled residential neighborhood — the kind of place people stay in rather than pass through. A short walk or train ride brings you to Koenji and Nakano, both worth exploring after a workout. The contrast between Saginomiya’s quiet streets and the energy of those neighboring areas is part of what makes this corner of the city interesting.
After the visit, a bowl of abura soba in the area rounded out the day well.
Overall
New interior. Four benches. Body composition scale. Genuinely uncrowded.
The monthly fee of ¥8,200 sits slightly above what the equipment count might justify — and the missing water server and leg press are real gaps. But for those already living in the area, this is a comfortable and reliable option. Not a destination gym, but a good local one.
The pilgrimage continues.
