“Great gym , staff there is wonderful very friendly. I inquired about a membership and was pleasantly surprised by their transparency and reasonable rates both for monthly membership and drop ins. Fully recommended!”

“Golden Phoenix Grit has a family atmosphere, challenging workouts that change daily, a top notch owner and coaches that motivate you to be your personal best, and it is truly my home away from home. If you are not self motivated, the members are always there to offer support or give you that little push you need to make it to the next level. We are in this together. Come and get healthy with me. 5 days for $5. You won’t regret it.”

“I like working with Ben who's my trainer, he encourages you to push though to meet your goaIs. Once you know the secret and follow the plan, you will know it was worth signing up with Secret Formula Fitness. It's definitely worth the investment!”

“To be honest when I saw the 5 star rating with hundreds of reviews…I was VERY skeptical of actually how good this gym was.I started back in July and have really been loving taking classes here! I was initially turned off by the idea of having to take 5 personal training sessions before being allowed to take classes…My thought was, ‘I work out a lot on my own and I’m in shape so why do I need this?’ BUT, I totally get it now! These private training sessions are VITAL to learn proper form, the weights you need, and all the moves which you’ll see in classes thereafter. So this turned out to be extremely helpful!The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable about proper form/technique and all seem like they genuinely enjoy doing what they do.As for the other gym members, they were welcoming and supportive! I felt comfortable while getting adjusted at the beginning.I have been taking classes 2-3 times a week since then. The classes always leave me drenched in sweat, feeling exhausted and exhilarated after!Highly recommend Isabella Fitness to anyone interested in trying it out!”

“Before joining Gabriele Fitness, I hadn’t been a member of a gym since before the pandemic. I realized a while ago that typical fitness or gym culture wasn’t a good fit for me, and at-home workouts weren't working for me either. While I like being active, this last year had me feeling in a bit of a rut. I craved feeling stronger and challenging myself and my body in new ways and I knew I was going to have a hard time getting there without some form of motivation. After carefully considering lots of different options, I finally signed up for the 50 Strong Challenge with GFP and I’m so glad that I did. My results were both amazing and motivating! Here are a few of the things I love most about my experiences with GFP:It’s such a welcoming space. There is no toxic fitness culture vibe at all. My experience with the trainers Mike, Matt, & Chris and the other members have been so welcoming, encouraging, and supportive. They will work with you and your capabilities, offering endless modifications to make sure you can safely engage with the exercise, while also challenging you to reach your potential.I really enjoy the small group format. One of my initial reservations about group training after being out of the loop was not being able to keep up. But that’s not an issue at all. I’ve never felt rushed even if my pace was slower than those around me. For me there’s just a different energy when working out in a group as opposed to doing it solo. The groups are also small enough so that everyone still benefits from lots of individual attention from the trainer. It’s the best of both worlds.There is so much variety in the trainings and you’ll never do the same workout twice! I really love this aspect of the experience. I’m so glad to be part of this community.”

“Veracity has it all. A great facility with ample equipment, dedicated coaches who will make sure you are getting a safe and solid workout, and a really special community. Having moved to the area a little over a year ago and joining Veracity in that first week, many of my local friends are people I've met at the gym. It's a very welcoming and supportive group where everybody cheers each other on and celebrates milestones whether gym-related or otherwise. Crossfit gets a bad rap as being intense or intimidating and you can make an intense workout if you want but the reality is Veracity has every age from teens to grandparents, all body types, abilities, etc. Coaches are knowledgable on how to modify and tailor every workout to your abilities and your goals so even though the general workout stimulus might be the same, each movement and the level of difficulty can be personalized. There's really something for everybody here, and that's one of the many reasons it is the best gym in Summit.”

“I have been a regular gym goer for my health and fitness goals for quite some time but hit a plateau and the progress seemingly stopped. Wanted some new routine, additional motivation with right coaching. Thankfully there was CrossFit Barbending (CFBB). CFBB completely changed my perspective about fitness. At first, I was little nervous to join due to a lot of misinformation about CrossFit. But the right guidance and information from CFBB trainers and coaches helped me with my decision to join. Coaches here are amazingly supportive, providing the right technique, motivation, and guidance. I highly recommend this place to invest in your health and achieve your fitness goal.”

“I've been to several CrossFit Gyms all over the nation, and this one is a winner! The top wins for me were their easy to follow sign-up system/ class reservations & the friendliness of the staff and members.It's obvious that the members consider themselves a family, they are genuine, encouraging, and hold one another accountable.I highly recommend this gym to people who are committed to their health and want a fun atmosphere to work out with people of like-minds.Bonus: I especially loved the diversity of the members!”

“Awesome awesome awesomeGreat workout, always tough but always scalable … highly recommended to all who want to improve fitness & body composition.Very supportive & friendly - talk to your coach!!!The variety of movements helped me rehab a hip issue. Variety of ages of folks (I’m 50) , variety of scale movements — can’t beat 908.”

“This is the best gym I’ve been to. From the employees to the other patrons. The amenities are plentiful, the rules are followed and the place is clean. The weights are never out of place because the people respect the gym and their experience. There’s no random fees every couple months so there’s no surprise charges. Even the teenagers there don’t crowd machines or spend their time making videos flexing in the mirrors (they have a room for that). They also have EVERYTHING you need and some things that you didn’t know you did. Two tufts, saunas, tanning beds, and batting cages. This is the best place to lift.”

“I have a goal to be in the best shape of my life. I knew I needed to be challenged to achieve that goal. The Max Challenge New Providence hasn’t let me down yet. I feel myself getting stronger and having more energy. I’m excited for what the future holds!”

“Idk how long this location has been here, but it’s IMMACULATE! Super clean, all the weights/ equipment where they belong & they even had small sweat towels (we don’t get those in NY anymore). Bathrooms/ shower also very clean. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I don't leave many reviews, but CrossFit Stealth deserves one!! I've been coming here for just over a year now but I love it. I've really never consistently worked out in my life, especially not at this level. It's always been way out of my comfort zone. I finally decided to make a change and tryCrossFit and I'm so happy that I have. Thiscommunity is incredible. I feel so muchsupport and genuine love. It makes a world of difference having such great coaches and a great team when you're getting out of your comfort zone. If you're trying to decide if you should do it.. definitely do it!!! worth every penny!!!Price is so reasonable!!!!! The best CrossFit in New Jersey!!!!”

“I’ve been coming here for a little over a year and it has become my home gym. I’ve been lifting for 4-5 years now and I’ve been to so many gyms but this is by far my most favorite. This gym is great for social/non social people & they have great machine that you won’t find at commercial gyms. Personally I enjoy working out and looking up at all of the pictures/paintings of the pros they have on the wall; it’s a reminder to go harder. Overall the best gym in the area for sure.”

“I’ve been working with Dave at Two Wolves for nearly two years. My strength, endurance and overall fitness level have increased substantially since joining. Small group training is offered, as close to personal training as you can get, but with a reasonable monthly membership cost. Workouts are varied and effective. All members are friendly and encouraging.”

“F45 training has become an essential part of my fitness journey, and I absolutely love it. The supportive environment is filled with sweet individuals who motivate each other, creating a positive and empowering atmosphere!”

“I loveeeee this place. Everyone in there motivates you. Great atmosphere to start you journey. My mom and I have come a long journey, we are only getting stronger...”

“By far the best gym & staff around! Very professional & clean! It’s like having your own personal trainer. Coaches are aware of your strengths and weaknesses! Challenges are available & coaches will coach you to achieve your fitness goals! We consider each other family!!”

“Where do I start? I absolutely enjoyed my pt session with Kev. Very patience, knowledgeable and fun!! He made me enjoyed working out and looking forward to our next sessions!! Wizfit team 10/10”

“Came to NJ to visit family and I’m in currently in comp prep. I needed a place I could go to workout and I found Adelante. Staff was extremely professional, facility is very clean, organized and has everything someone would need. Members were also very respectful and made you feel at home. Highly recommend anyone that’s out of state visiting or even instate looking to get into powerlifting or working out to visit. I’ll see them again next time I’m in town. Thank you for the hospitality.”

“The best gym on the island! Awesome coaches that are knowledgeable, respectful and push you to your limits. Great community of people that are fun, supportive and make you feel welcomed. There is always something eventful going on so you will never be bored. Time schedules are reasonable and the workouts never get boring. I definitely recommend this gym!”

“I dropped in at 908 athletics for the month and really enjoyed myself. They provide the perfect combination of cardio and Olympic weightlifting within their programming. Their coaches are thorough and the membership is super friendly. I will definitely drop in again when I’m back in town.”

“CrossFit Treehouse has everything I am looking for in a gym; great coaching, quality equipment, very clean, holistic programming, and a friendly, supportive atmosphere.The workouts always push me and have overall elevated my fitness to the next level. I came in looking for a gym to help me build strength and here I’ve not only found that but also a supportive community of coaches and athletes who encourage and build each other up. The coaching is exceptional; each coach I’ve had brings energy, explains the workouts well, and cares to walkthrough and correct technique to prevent me from injury.If you’re looking for a place to grow in fitness and improve technique no matter what level you’re currently at, I can strongly recommend this gym for you.Quick shoutouts to Xavier, my first coach who brings so much energy to each workout and Angelo G. for inspiring me to try this out. ?”

“I'm thrilled to share my glowing review of your gym and its incredible community! The blend of CrossFit and Martial arts creates a dynamic and engaging fitness environment that keeps me motivated and excited to come back for more. What truly sets your gym apart is the warm and inclusive community that welcomes everyone with open arms. The camaraderie and support among members make every workout feel like a collaborative effort towards achieving our fitness goals. The coaches' dedication and expertise in the disciplines ensure that I'm not only getting a challenging workout but also learning and improving with each session. It's evident that the positivity and encouragement within the gym foster an atmosphere where everyone can thrive, regardless of their fitness level. Keep up the fantastic work – your gym is a true gem in the fitness world!”

“I recently had the opportunity for a session with Hiroshi Powell, professional trainer and owner. He educated me to the proper, safest and most effective way to utilize my workouts. He took the time to make sure I understood why and how I should be training to achieve the results I want. I am in my 60’s, started working out on my own since last Oct, managed to get a serious torn muscle. I only wish I found him sooner..I learned so much and look forward to my next session. I highly recommend professional trainer and expert Hiroshi Powell.”

“Orange Theory is the only workout I have consistently attended since high school sports. Even when I have fallen off the habit train, I then have been able to get back into it thanks to the community of people around the studio and also; there's so much juicy workout data and i want to keep making that data grow! it's incredibly motivating to see the stats build over time; almost like how we look at stats of sports players in fantasy football except it's you, it's real life. it's you getting better, stronger, faster, harder. I can't recommend it enough. my wife just joined and did her second class and now we have another hobby we can do together and keep ourselves even more accountable, and loose weight, get into shape or hikes and ski trips, and get stamina for ... other parts of married life too. Try it, you won't regret it.”

“I have never, ever had the most amazing massage as I did yesterday with Larry Heisler. I have RA, and always have a swollen and painful wrist. I also have a lump in my neck gland, (non cancerous ?)My wrist, and neck pain is gone today.I don’t know what magic he has in his hands, but I never had a massage as amazing as that one .Larry is so knowledgeable about the body, and knew exactly where and what was needed for my healingI will be back again, and again.Thank you”

“Aside from being an amazing place to reach new heights physically, KOA's best quality is that is strives to create a positive atmosphere for all of its members.There are no egos, and everyone (coaches and fellow athletes included) are as happy for you as they are for themselves. There is a special bond that forms from doing workouts together, that I wouldn't of ever thought was possible.Whether you're a former athlete trying to get back into it, an elite athlete trying to reach the next level, a casual gym goer, or an athletic novice like I was, this is the place for you.Koa will push you to be the best you can, and this is not only physically. They teach you to be mentally tough and to keep striving to improve. There is a mental toughness, determination, and aggression that you need to be able to lift a bar over your head. I found myself unknowingly taking the same confidence into other every day things in my life. You learn that things you never thought were possible, are very possible if you put a plan together and execute it.When I started, I could barely lift the bar over my head, couldn't do a pullup, and was out of breath doing burpees within seconds. However, the community never let me feel down, and kept encouraging me. It would of been very easy to stop, but KOA has an atmosphere where you want to keep getting better, even when you are struggling... I really felt awful physically, but emotionally the support I got far outweighed it.. This pushed me, and others to keep going.I stayed with it, and It's amazing how 3 years later to see how far I've come. I've gone from not even knowing how to squat to squatting nearly 400lbs. I couldn't do a pullup, but now can grab the rings and pull off some muscle ups... Somehow I can even throw up over 150% of my bodyweight over my head... The program just works!If there is a negative, it's that this place has somehow created a magic atmosphere and unbelievable positive energy that makes you think you can do anything if you put a plan together and execute it..The confidence I gained from KOA made me believe that I could run the NYC Marathon, and a 70.3 Ironman Race... And somehow I did them both... If not for everything KOA has taught me, then I don't think any of these would of even been thoughts in my wildest dreams...The constant motivation to get better never ends no matter where you are... Right now, I'm signed up for a 140.6 Mile Ironman Race in July, and because of KOA I'm crazy enough to know I can do it...Join, and never look back!Update, 8 years later, still all good. Since that time, I've done 5 full distance Ironmans. Definitely the best gym you can find.”

“A true gym for STRENGTH ATHLETES. The owner Henri Skiba has a great knowledge of the strength game and the gym is packed with all the tools to get strong. The gym has multiple monolifts, specialty bars, westside barbell equipment that you will not find in many gyms. A must go to for any person that wants to be strong. ?”
