Why Protocol in Bellevue
Protocol was built in Bellevue for people who want the polish of a premium gym with the results of coached strength and conditioning. The space is intentionally organized, stocked with top-tier equipment, and designed so you can move confidently through each part of class.
Coaching is hands-on and standards-driven. We plan every day to balance strength, athletic movement, and conditioning, then coach you through the right variations so you train hard, stay safe, and keep progressing whether you are brand new or leveling up.
Environmental quality matters here too: live air-quality monitoring, IQAir purification, tuned humidity, filtered water, and spotless surfaces. That attention to detail, plus a kind community, is why members stick around. Want the full story? Learn more about Protocol.

FAQ: Bellevue gym questions
Is Protocol good for beginners?
Yes. Every class is coached start to finish, and we teach you how to scale movements so you build capacity safely from day one.
What is different from a normal gym membership?
You do not have to guess at programming or technique. We handle the plan, coach every rep, and keep the environment spotless and dialed in. Members can still train solo during open gym hours.
Are classes coached the whole time?
Yes. Coaches lead the warm-up, teach the lifts, set pacing, and give real-time cues during conditioning so you get better every session.
What should I bring?
Athletic shoes, a water bottle, and layers you can move in. We provide all equipment and filtered water.
How often should I come per week?
Most members train 3-5 days per week. If you are restarting, begin with 2-3 classes and add frequency as you recover well.
Do you offer a free trial?
Yes. Your first class is free. Book it at /first-visit and try the space before you decide.
What are your class times?
We run coached classes throughout the week so you can train before or after work. Check the live schedule at /schedule.
Where do I park?
Parking is free anywhere in the lot at 1508 128th Pl NE. The 130th/BelRed light rail stop is about a 5-minute walk if you prefer transit.
Do you offer personal training?
Our primary service is coached group classes. If you want one-on-one guidance for a skill or goal, talk to a coach and we will share the best option.
Is this CrossFit?
We use a similar functional fitness and cross-training style, but Protocol is not affiliated with CrossFit. Classes are fully coached and programmed in-house.
What if I am returning after time off?
We meet you where you are. Expect lighter loading, pacing guidance, and a plan to rebuild strength and conditioning without overdoing it.
Is Protocol good for busy professionals in Bellevue?
Yes. The gym is central to the Bellevue tech corridor, and classes are efficient so you can train, shower, and get back to work on time.
