“RTS has been an amazing place to train and focus on my health. The coaches have been instrumental in my transformation. It all started on a HOT Friday afternoon in 2020, when Coach Corey and I had a heart to heart about going on the dark side. Coach Nick, who was first coach, taught me to have great form and technique. My current coach, Coach Geo, has been the driving force with my strength gains. A special shot out to Coach Trevor, who is always there when I need a spot. Thank you to Mike and the RTS family for the support over the last 3 years!!!”

“Wow, I had such an incredible experience at Strongtown Fitness of Southbury. The camaraderie among the members is amazing, and it really made me feel like part of a supportive community. The challenge of the workouts pushed me to new limits and left me feeling accomplished. The staff was welcoming and attentive, making sure I had a fantastic trial class. I can't wait to go back and be part of this awesome fitness family!”
“I have seen a high number of martial arts schools over the years from California to New York to Connecticut.. Whether your goal is to train self defense, train for competition or just get/stay in shape, the IMB Academy has a class and path for you. Chris’ knowledge and skills are second to none.I personally enjoy more of the self defense path and find Chris’ teachings very applicable.I also enjoy the camaraderie amongst the students in the class and the Chris’ ability to take very complex concepts and moves and break them down into bite sized more manageable nuggets of knowledge.If you are on the fence I highly recommend trying a class or two out and see for yourself!”
“Memorable as always. Great place. Friendly staff. The owners remembered me even though I was gone for 2 years! Friendly atmosphere. It feels like other gyms should, non- competitive, friendly and accommodating. Luv it there!”
“I moved to Woodbury 2019 and have had a hard time finding a CrossFit gym that I fit in. CrossFit gyms tend to be very cliquey and it’s always hard come in as a newcomer. Everyone here has been super friendly, including the members and coaches. Coaches are extremely approachable and try to help you in any way they can without making you feel stupid. I definitely recommend it!”
“Ive been with CFC only about a year but can say that they are some of the most understanding and supportive group of people i've met. That is all the teachers and everyone else who attends as well. It is such a great gym community that helps you to feel comfortable every time you go. I have lost over 70 lbs with them and am so glad they pushed me to better myself. Thank you, Josh, Kelly and everyone else at CFC!”
“Great family oriented training facility for almost all ages. Has CrossFit for adults and specific sport training for the kids to help improve their current sport activity with specialized training and weight lifting especially speed drills.highly recommended!!!!!!”
“Best Gym In Waterbury!! in the whole state in my opinion. The gym is always clean and organize, machines always in good condition, the staff is cool and down to earth good business hours and fair prices on products and merchandise. What else can you ask for? Norm’s Gym 10/10????”
“Elm City Fitness! Been going for 1 year now- they have become my 5:30am family!! And they should offer money to buy all new clothes when you reshape your body’ lol”

“Been a member for a couple of years now and I like that it’s open 24/7 365 the facility is always clean and well maintained as is the equipment. I also signed up this year for personal trading with Amy G. Cause I wasn’t getting the results I wanted doing it on my own. Amy is great I have a love hate relationship with her lol I love how involved she is and always checking on me and making sure I’m eating and drinking right and she also worked around my schedule and comes in at 4am to train me I know most trainers won’t do that and the hate part is just how I feel after our training sessions lol (jk)”

“I decided last minute to do a drop in class today. I was immediately welcomed by not only the owner of the establishment but by multiple members. This alone shows you how Tuff Girl is run as the kindness flows from the top and out..I was supported every single second of the class... by not only the women running the class but by other members.... helping me retrieve the correct equipment, showing me how to do the exercises, and simply cheering me on.I can not recommend Tuff Girl enough.The exercise itself was difficult enough but able to be adjusted as needed. Great music and great great women!I will be back :-)”
“As soon as you walk in the door, the feeling is absolutely positive, positive energy brings on positive results. The staff is professional, knowledgeable, honest and friendly. You will not be dissapoonted!!!!”
“Fitness Zone is an incredible gym and community. The personal attention the coaches provide to the athletes is fantastic. The coaches always emphasize safety and growth. Workouts are challenging and always changing and can be modified for anyone, also the coaches and other athletes are always encouraging.”
“Either train new school or old school they have what you need, boxing,mma,karate ....ect. Friendly staff and members they will help you reach your goals and many great things to come. I've known the owner since we were kids and he's a great guy and very knowledgeable. He keeps the gym clean and sanitary, his place is so much better than the chain gyms out there there is no place than can compete.”
“- 30 pounds and stronger, I am thankful to the team. Tom got me off the couch and squatting and pulling 110 pounds! I’m amazed . Thank you Lori ,Vicki Carmen and Tom. You are safe in their hands .”
“Home to TuffGirl Fitness and FMA, this place is by far the best workout I've gotten in a long time (coming from a Varsity College Athlete that is saying something!) They combine TRX, plyometrics, weights, cardio, and much more into high intensity classes. Christa, Jenn, and Karin are amazing, and have great energy. Some classes are women only, and others are mixed, but all are equally good. I feel so much stronger and more confident since joining 1.5 months ago, and don't see myself stopping any time soon :) It is pricey, but completely worth it. Once I had the week free trial I was 100% hooked, and think almost everyone who comes feels the same way.”

“Could there be a better gym? I moved 30 minutes away and I still come here everyday. A whole floor of cardio and a huge upstairs with machines and free weights. In the basement they have boxing and Olympic lifting focused stations. They have all the machines I want to use. They even have a pullover machine which I haven't seen in any other gyms. They offer me no BS pricing and I can pay for the whole year at a reasonable price. I could do that at Planet Fitness also but I don't like Planet Fitness because they have their whole lunk alarm policy and a dress code. Sometimes if you're lifting heavy you may need to drop weights. I try not to but no one complains here if it happens and there is no dress code. A dress code at a gym is insane by the way. If I want to wear jeans at a place I pay for and it's not hurting anyone else why shouldn't I be able to? They also are the only place around that sells 3D energy drinks. They sell protein bars and stuff behind the counter. They offer tanning and MMA class upstairs in the back. They built an in gym protein/supplement shop a while ago that isn't part of the gym but is located in the gym which is convenient. The only problem is so many people go here it can be hard to find parking sometimes. Love this gym. Don't ever change anything Steel Beach.”

“I joined OTF Hamden about 3 weeks ago and I'm loving it! The workouts are intense as they combine strength core and cardio. I love that every day's workout is unique and different and I also love the pumping gyrating music lists. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable- I love Amy the owner who works out in the early bird 5am class beside me and the trainers are real coaches who inspire you to keep going even when you are ready to quit - I could go on and onbut I'll stop now”
“Judgement free zone as I get back in shape. I can't do a lot but I am motivated. Slowly getting there, trying to be consistent. If I can do it, you can too.”
“Love planet ❤️ Drew at the front desk is always kind and greets everyone even with it being 5 am. Dave always says hello and they are both extremely attentive to the gym. Everyone at planet always is cleaning and trying there best to smile you wouldn’t be able to tell if there having a bad day, but they always try there best to brighten your day!”
“I live outside of the country and was visiting family in the area for a couple of months and needed a gym for the short term. I am so glad I picked this gym over others in the area! Really big space, great selection of equipment and very well maintained. Members are generally polite and courteous. Everyone seems to be good about cleaning equipment after use and racking weights. Staff are friendly. Definitely recommend.”
