“I have been a Be Fit NJ member for over two years now and I am so happy here. I have made so many friends and Cheryl is a fantastic trainer. Even during this difficult time during the COVID19 Pandemic she is putting on wonderful online classes. Thank you so much for all you do!”

“Everyone is amazing, Julie, Nick, Alec, Emma, Gabby and Jamie have all been super helpful, friendly and always working to keep the weights put away and the gym clean. You have a great crew there that are always in a good mood and that energy is infectious. It makes coming to the gym less painful on the days when you would rather do anything else. Tell them all to keep up the great work!”

“One of the most professional boxes I’ve ever been to. The owner is friendly and knowledgeable, as well as every coach I’ve worked with so far. I’ve gotten such helpful tips on form and just overall technique. Highly recommend.”

“I'm so happy to have found SETS! I've been a member since they opened last year and i am so grateful to have found them. All the coaches are great and can accommodate any fitness level. I have recommended a few friends and they love it as well.”

“The hours, cleanliness, friendliness and variety of machines is great! Definitely a great value and I always look forward to working out there.

I'm sorry but I just have to add 1 more thing and explain why I'm lowering my review. For MONTHS the closed captions have worked on every single tv screen EXCEPT CNN. I've asked a million times if they could get it turned back on but no one has done a thing. Very annoying and I can't help wondering if it's some kind of political thing. No excuse.”

“CrossFit Andare in Forked River offers the best fitness and community experience within 100 miles!! The programming is second to none. The coaches are knowledgeable and friendly but aren't afraid to encourage and hold you accountable. There are consistent seminars, competitions, and community building events allowing everyone to be involved. The amenities are great as they have all the equipment need plus massive racks and even a Sauna, protein shake bar, and COLD BREW COFFEE on tap!

CrossFit Andare has been absolutely essential to my personal growth and development.

I've been doing CrossFit for nearly 20 years with a history of poor attendance. I also ate very poorly and drank regularly. My poor life choices and laziness ultimately resulted in the need for serious back surgery at only 39yrs old. Recognizing the need for change in my life I used Andare as pre-op physical therapy as much as I could.

The programming at Andare is fantastic. I was able to strengthen my core and spine to the point that I was able to return to work 3 weeks after a fusion of my L5S1. In 2 months I was able to attend classes again. 12 months after coming back I broke my Deadlift personal best. A record I had not been able to surpass for 11 years!!!

If you are looking for a place to make a positive change in your life, no matter what you are going through, and no matter what your current fitness level or experience is, CrossFit Andare is the box for you!”

“What sets tr fitness aside from every other gym is the family oriented feeling you get when you walk in there. Shelly and her husband have created something every other gym out there try to do but come up short. The place is always immaculate. The staff are always as courteous and polite and ready to assist or help with anything possible. On a 1 to 5 stars tr fitness should be the one to get 6 stars cause again they stand out from every other gym. And they have the cleanest pool over ever seen in my life! If asked I would say tr fitness or don't go to the gym!”

“I’ve been a member of LA Fitness in Brick, NJ, for some time now, and I want to give a special shoutout to Margarita. She is an incredibly hard-working employee who consistently goes above and beyond to maintain the cleanliness of the gym. I’ve noticed her regularly changing the garbages and ensuring that every area is spotless. Her dedication truly enhances the overall experience at the facility. It’s clear that she takes pride in her work, and it makes a significant difference for all the members. Thank you, Margarita, for keeping our gym in top shape!”

“CrossFit ARX
Arx Games – A Fantastic Competition Experience
The ARX Games at CrossFit ARX was an exceptional event, offering a challenging and exhilarating competition. Competing as an individual pushed me to new limits, and the energy throughout the day was contagious. The workouts were thoughtfully designed, testing strength, endurance, and skill in a way that kept things intense yet rewarding.

While I truly value my own box and the coaches I train with every day, their guidance and support have been key to my physical health and well-being at 57. Thanks to them, I’m in the best shape I’ve been in years. That said, I have to acknowledge that this box and the tournament they organized were top-notch. The facility was well-equipped, and the event was incredibly well-run from start to finish. The judging was fair and consistent, which kept things competitive but always supportive.

I highly recommend both this tournament and the box itself to any CrossFit athlete or enthusiast. It’s a place that fosters community, excellence, and passion for the sport. I’m looking forward to seeing how I grow and improve for future competitions!”

“I've been lifting on and off for about 13 years and out of all the gyms I've been to in that span, these guys are my absolute favorite. Setting aside how awesome it is that you can go here anytime you want at any point in the day with a membership and the key fob, this gym especially has a lot of perks. The staff are exceptional and kind, and I mean that for every one of them that I've had the pleasure of getting to know over the past couple of years. The equipment is always maintained extremely well and the people are generally very friendly and polite as well. They've got pretty much anything you could need here to run just about any type of workout. My favorite part, though, is the community. You might not feel it on your first visit but this gym has a lot of special people who will go out of their way to make you feel welcome. There's so many familiar faces that this place has started to feel like a second home for me. I love to see my fellow gymgoers like Bruce, Debbie, John, Kevin, and so many more. We all encourage each other to do and be better not just at the gym but in our lives. Hands down this gym has the best community I've ever been a part of, the people and staff who are here will care about you and your goals, and I speak from experience as one of the most active members who has only gone here more and more as time goes on. At 31 I'm currently in the best shape of my life and a lot of my gratitude for that goes towards the amazing people here who have been so supportive of me and others. If you want a gym that's more than just a sanctuary for you when you need to let off some steam, this place is great for that, but it's also great for meeting good people who genuinely care about you and your goals. Very much the ancient Greek concept of kalos kai agathos incarnate”

“They were removing the target incline benches originally. When me and my partner brought it up to them that we used them , THEY BROUGHT THEM BACK IN!!!! Staff here is super chill!!! Thanks everybody!!!!!”

“I’d personally give this space a 10/10. It’s extremely clean, well kept, very spacious, has great customer service and the vibes don’t lie aka the energy of the atmosphere is wonderful. I also have conversed with a few of the workers and they have all been very friendly. Keep up the great work!”

“Very helpful and pleasant staff. Facility is old and worn but still functional. Plenty of Weights and weight machines. Few members using facilities when I’ve been there so no waiting. I didn’t use the pool but it looked in great condition.”

“Toms River's Crunch Fitness gym exceeds expectations. My daily morning visits are always pleasant due to the friendly staff, clean location, and varied equipment selection. I highly endorse checking it out if you're unfamiliar with this gym! ?”

“My wife spent years begging me to go to Force. My only regret is not going sooner! I've never been much of a gym person, but I find myself waking up every morning now eager and excited to go workout. Every single day is a different workout, and the trainers are amazing motivators. You will not be able to come up with a good enough excuse to stay away from this place!”

“Brian has been training my daughter for years and my son just started. Amazing knowledge and guidance! I already see a difference in my son in a short month! Love all star sports!”

“How great is the customer service at Retro in Toms River? let me tell you a story this morning at the gym I’m getting ready to leave. I’m at the front desk and Christina, who is working says to me there’s a guy who ordered a shake and now I can’t find him. It’s just sitting here I said he’ll probably be back So Christina says no it’s just that his shake is sitting here and it won’t taste as good as if he took it right away. That’s just one example, Catherine, Christina, and two girls that I’ve just met. Eleana and Emily are all wonderful. Super nice and joy to see when I go to work out. The equipment is excellent, and the atmosphere is welcoming.”
