Best Personal trainers in United States

I joined Unleashed in March 2023 because I was eager to return to CrossFit after trying it briefly before the pandemic and I was interested in finding a fitness community in Astoria. I was nervous about joining due to an unresolved shoulder injury. The coaches were understanding and encouraging and always offered scaled versions of the workouts to accommodate my injury. 9 months later, my shoulder is pain-free and I am in the strongest and best shape of my life! Unleashed offers a fun community with different fitness events and social events. The community is motivating and friendly! I’m proud of all my progress and enjoy having a community to share with it. Highly recommend giving Unleashed a try! :)

LIIISTEN!!! If you haven’t signed up yet, what are you waiting for?! I’ve been to many other group sessions, but nothing tops Coach Ernie classes. From the energy he brings and the results you get

Love this place I been a member over 15y
It’s getting better again SLOWLY but I hope they can continue to improve.
Last weekend Saturday someone leaf a bag of garbage in front of the building and by Tuesday night the garbage still there - I DON’T understand why the manager doesn’t ask someone to clean up -even though it wasn’t from the gym,some bad people left there - my point is IT LOOKS BAD for the facility.
Please just ask some employees to go and clean up - that’s count!!!!!

One of the best decisions I could have made joining Tabu Fitness. I started July 4th and I am still going strong. Coach E is the truth. He truly cares of our well-being and hold us accountable. You truly see the weight loss. You must put in the work but he is there to push and motivate

I LOVE the classes. Instructors are enthusiastic, motivating and alignment based. Add more Body Pump because it's top notch!

Using the weight machines downstairs could be better... lighter free weights-- (15lb and under) are rarely together and you have to search for its mate. Go at odd times to avoid crowds. General good vibe all around as people are focused on getting their workouts in.
However, my main complaint is the lack of cleanliness! The main studio floors are always dusty, dirt piles under equipment for MONTHS, mirrors often smudged, and forget using a mat-- just bring your own folks. Unfortunately, the restrooms are often tragic. Water all over counters, on the floor-- a fall waiting to happen. Yikes.
Please, please please change the filter in your water fountain on a quarterly basis...
AC not working in a workout studio that often has its doors closed is unacceptable-- plain and simple.

But truly, I do recommend this gym. Get in, get out, take Rachel or Jackie's Body Pump classes and you'll be grateful that you did.

I love the intense work out that's adjustable for people at all fitness levels. The class pushes you to do your personal best and to keep improving your own strengths and goals. The coaches and staff are are all extremely knowledgeable and caring. Before orange theory I had no idea how to do a proper work out or how to target certain muscle groups, nor would I push myself to points that I thought possible. Since starting orange theory I not only see the results but I also feel amazing. I love OTF!

Trying out Unleashed was one of the best fitness decisions I made this year.

People do CrossFit for different reasons. My goal was simply to stay active and not get hurt. The coaches were great with instructions of the foundational lifts. And scaling let me push myself at my own pace and so I can continue to see progress. Wods keeps the workouts different and fun. The community’s and the space’s great too!

Friendly and engaging staff. Very professional. They always change up the routines and work outs; so it stays interesting. Very challenging. They have specialty workouts and special challenges to keep you motivated. Orange Theory consists of strength training with weights, HIIT exercises and the water rower that works 96% of your body. They really implement science and math more than any other gym I've visited. I got the unlimited package and I've been seeing results. Fun gym, you just have to stay committed.

I love otf! I’ve been doing it for a year now and this is the longest I’ve stuck with a gym. The coaches are really good at what they do and the workouts are always so different and challenging. I’m never bored! I do wish it was easier to book classes on weekends, the times I want to go to are always full. I also wish the app told you when you accidentally book an extra class, there’s no warning when you book that you will be charged.

We dropped-in few morning CrossFit sessions while being on vacation in NYC. Coaches and box members were very welcoming and friendly. The facility is nice and fully equipped to make you sweat. I can only recommend.

OTF Forest Hills is simply the best!! If there were 100 stars instead of 5 in rating, I would give my 100 stars without thinking twice! The staff is super friendly and always helpful, the coaches are very knowledgeable, inspiring, and funny, which makes the workout super fun every day (sometimes I take even two classes a day :) I take the early morning and evening classes and always find the classes as my great beginning of the day or the end of it. I love the new equipment and how clean the studio is. Oh, I cannot forget to mention the music during the classes, amazing!!! Thank you so much Forest Hills OTF Family !!!🧡

Great classes and friendly coaches! Always clean and always a pleasant experience. The schedule is packed - they have early mornings, noon, and afternoon/evenings.

In my first session, I was a little nervous. But when I went there, Mr. Joshua was very friendly and helpful. Coach Mr. Justin was encouraging me to do my best. He is very helpful. I felt like this is the workout place I was looking for. I am happy to be a part of the OTF team.

Orangetheory is always perfect. I’ve been a member for 2 years and it still challenges me. I do supplement with F45 for their strength days but I go to OTF 3-4 times per week. It keeps me in shape and my cardiovascular strength has never been better.

Love this space! Great setup, fantastic coaching, and wonderful community. 10/10 recommend whether you’re an avid gym goer, or just getting started on your fitness journey. Lots of great guidance for all levels and abilities!

I've had an exceptional experience at Iron Fortress Fitness Training.

After a nine-year hiatus from the gym, I decided this year to dive back into weight training with the goal of enhancing strength and size. I was fortunate enough to train under Cedeil's guidance. The initial two weeks were understandably challenging due to my long break, but Cedeil's professionalism and deep knowledge of exercises truly stood out. He was adept at recommending the correct exercises, ensuring proper form, and targeting the right muscles for optimum growth and strength.

What I genuinely appreciated was his unwavering support. Whenever workouts got intense, Cedeil was right there, motivating and urging me to persevere. Additionally, I was provided with a well-structured meal plan, encompassing breakfast, lunch, a mid-afternoon snack, and dinner. The plan was balanced, emphasizing carbs and protein to fuel workouts and aid muscle recovery.

The results speak for themselves. After several sessions, I've witnessed marked improvements in my strength. My shoulders, arms, chest, and legs have shown significant growth.

For anyone considering a fitness journey, I wholeheartedly endorse Iron Fortress Fitness Training.

Best workout! Great staff, coaches AND members! The gym is always clean, everyone is always so supportive. I can’t recommend this place enough!

Best private one on one training with pedro i know this place over three years now never wanna quit there. I just wanted to thankxx Pedro for taking me back welcoming me and pushing me after birth i start getting depress by over weight i though may be it’s impossible to be back in shape i went there with very depress mood but he push me not only that he know what’s best workout for me he is like not go for heavy he understands our body language so well and best part is he never make workout so boring with him everything seems so enjoyable at gym i always get excited now for my workout gaining my strength back just in a three weeks he is amazing beast trainer

Thank you so much pedro for understanding my time schedule and cooperating with it and also for believing in me you making my impossible thoughts into possible believe or not In front of you i might get frustrated bcz of burning from workout 🏋️‍♀️ but deep down i love to see my results thank you for always pushing me hard.❤️❤️❤️❤️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️

GOD BLESS YOU 🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♀️

It’s crazy that memberships start at $40 a month when the gym doesn’t have the capacity for all the members it has. I’m constantly waiting for machines because half of them are broken half the time. There’s only 4 stair masters, and 2 out of the 4 have been broken for over a month. If a machine breaks, you can expect it to be broken for a month at *minimum* before it’s “repaired” (notice I said repaired - not replaced, and you can tell some of these machines are old and have been bandaged over and over again, especially the stair masters). The owner and management clearly do not care at all about their clients and are money hungry. I know that NYSC as a whole has had financial struggles, but for $40 a month I expect better, especially with the traffic I see go through this gym. It’s hard to believe that with the amount of members they have that they can’t afford to buy proper equipment. I honestly feel like the updates did nothing constructive besides making it look better. There are little-to-no ab machines. What ever happened to the hanging leg raise? One good thing I will say about this gym though is that the staff is always very kind and attentive so shoutout to them as well as the cleaners who work very hard. Management needs to get it together though.

I'm really disappointed in this club and it's staff members. The last few months I've had several billing issues, dealt with poor management and it really turned me off to the gym to the point where I stopped wanting to go and finally cancelled. The gym itself is always heavily packed, which is to be expected with a neighborhood gym, but it does interfere with your ability to have a good workout. Having emails ignored/being hung up on mid sentence by staff several times the last few months is also very upsetting. I'd recommend going to one of the alternative gyms in the area.

I embarked on my fitness journey with IFT back in February, and it has been an absolute game-changer. From the very beginning, I had the privilege of having Cedil as my trainer, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Cedil's exceptional skills as a trainer, coupled with his impressive physique, immediately inspired confidence in me.

What truly sets Cedil apart is his extensive knowledge and years of experience in the fitness world. It's evident that he understands the science and art behind fitness, and his expertise has been the driving force behind my remarkable progress. Since I started working out under his guidance, I've noticed a significant improvement in my strength and overall well-being. I feel better and more energetic than ever before.

In my opinion, IFT stands out as the best personal gym I've come across. The dedication and passion they bring to personal training are unparalleled. The credit for this exceptional gym goes to the whole team at IFT, whose commitment to excellence is evident in every aspect of the facility. The recently opened location at Mineola is a testament to IFT's constant pursuit of providing top-notch training experiences.

IFT is on the brink of revolutionizing the fitness industry, and I'm confident that this is just the beginning. With the whole team at IFT, I have no doubt that they will continue to shatter industry standards and redefine what a fitness journey can achieve. I wholeheartedly recommend IFT to anyone seeking a transformative fitness experience led by professionals who genuinely care about your success.

Best gym! Amazing coaches, workout space and PARKING! A true gem in Astoria/Long Island city area.

One of the worse spot. I freezes my membership due to hand surgery, from the front desk they said you can text us the doctor’s note we will extend your freeze, I sent the pic of my note, they didn’t extend my freeze they kept charging for all these month. I asked to cancel my membership at the front she said ok you can cancel it we will charge for next month cause it’s required 30days advance notice. I said ok, I thought my membership was cancelled but they kept charging me. When I called front desk, they said you didn’t inform or complete paper work. When I said I want to cancel it no one mentioned it to me do the paper work. Also I have a proof that I sent doctors note to freeze my membership. When I spoke with the manager she didn’t apologize to me for their mistake. Also didn’t reimburse my charges. Their customer service is worse. And their policy as well. I m never going back. Wasted lots of money. Completely ripoff

AMAZING GYM FOR ANY FITNESS GOALS!!

Junior and the IFT team are some of the best trainers in New York. The new location in Mineola is a must visit for anyone looking to reach their fitness goals, whether you're a beginner or advanced level lifter, Junior and the team take extreme pride and care when it comes to catering to your fitness and nutrition goals. Junior is an extremely passionate and knowledgeable trainer and answered any and all questions I had during my session. The machines and equipment are high quality and are definitely not seen in any commercial gyms in the area. It truly is your own personal luxury gym!

A gym with great coaches and a great community. I started about a year ago on a 3-month trial and soon it’s going to be my one-year anniversary!

I started my fitness journey before CrossFit Unleashed, but CrossFit really changed how I feel about my fitness journey. I have learned so much here and can’t wait to see what else I am capable of!

If you are hesitant to try it out because of the CrossFit videos you have seen online, keep in mind everything can be modified to your skill level. The coaches are great and everyone will help you grow and succeed!

CrossFit unleashed has been by far the most welcoming
CrossFit gym I have encountered, not only as an individual but as well for my family. My husband and our kid have all joined and the community has been second to none.
Finding a new box to workout in and feel comfortable but at the same time feel like I'm being challenged and pushed to my limits have been a blessing. We all have shattered our old PR's and the vibe the coaches bring forth have made us excel in every aspect of our fitness. I HIGHLY recommend this gym to any fitness enthusiast looking to shatter any old PR's!

I joined CrossFit UNLEASHED in 2019, and it has been an absolute game-changer for my fitness journey. The workouts are varied and thoughtfully designed, ensuring that each day brings a new challenge . The gym provides a supportive environment that pushes me to new limits, making me realize that I am capable of far more than I had ever imagined. Joining this gym has been one of the best decisions I've made, and I can't recommend it highly enough.

Just started training here, both junior and Sam show great hospitality and friendliness. You can tell they both have great passion for fitness. Definitely will try again.

Gino & Ernie were amazing! They worked with our group - we each had different fitness levels and it was a great workout.

First intense workout in a while and can definitely say I feel great! Coaches and staff were great, energy and music was on point!

The places is mostly dirty. The weights are all over the place. The lockers are ugly and the sauna is always not working. Like why do I even pay for my membership here ? This is a update review. The gym is about the same dirty locker rooms the lockers are all old. The weights are all over the place it’s packed most of the time. They are increasing the price now 5 dollars a month? Like what ?

I should give this gym 10 stars. A star for every squat rack. It’s easily the best NY Sports club in the city. It has all new equipment and is the largest of all the NYSC’s, which by default makes it the best. As far as gyms go, I suppose unless you’re in a different tax bracket, this has to be on par with being the best gym in the five boroughs. I mean even if you’re going to equinox or some other white collar crime gym, 45lbs is still a plate.

I seldom rated a gym.
Pro:
1. The gym instructors were good and hyped your energy. Been using this gym for about 6 months.
2. Very focus in social media

Cons:
1. Small very space for you paying over $200 per month monthly fees. When you decide to cancel it they will move charge another one month. -- Check the fine print of contract. This only a gym you cannot cancel immediately and not pay for following month.

2. Late FEES is expensive. Its like 1 month payment for those standard gyms and they will charged you immediately

3. 8 Hour window to cancel is ridiculously. And mostly classes are fully book esp weekened you need to schedule 1 week ahead

4. The safety - this is risk studio can be lead more accident for very small space for so many people. So many new members not really fully equip to hold dumbells. Some members doing there routine on the floor and you will see some theyr'e holding dumbells near front of your head. It should be more space to work out safely. They trying to keep fully pack the very small space. In case something accidents - who will pay?

Its a HYpe gym and easily can be copied later on like those Physique 57 barre studio and now its everywhere doing that. And to pay over $225 per month plus late fees if you cancel or late.

Very Corporate policy. and not customer focus for safety.

Had my worst gym experience in New York. The staff was being unreasonable in my ‘first’ class (forced me to reschedule even though the policy stated 10min grace period and I arrived 12 minute early). When I emailed the studio manager, there was no response or apologies.

Candice takes the time to get to know you, she is kind and very knowledgeable. I really appreciate not feeling rushed and being able to ask questions and learn more about my body. I highly recommend!

They been renovating a lot and my experience at this gym had improved from what I had when I joined in February of this year. The staff are friendly and helpful. You have plentiful amount of machines and barbells to do everything you need. And the best part about this gym is that even during peak hours you usually don't have to wait to long for a bench or squat rack. Finally the gym environment itself is very welcoming and everyone is respectful.

I will say though the only complaint I really have is that it's really hard to find 15-40 lb sometimes since that is what everyone is usually using, so more of the lower weight dumbbells will definitely make my experience here a 5 stars. But for the money that you pay for, I feel like this gym is really worth it's price!

Junior is an amazing trainer who helps you achieve your goals!

I have now been training at Iron Fortress for almost 3 months and I can say that this was the best decision I ever made. I train with Junior 3 times a week while also following the diet plan he made for me. His attention to detail makes the entire experience better. He is passionate about training and all around good person. The gym, trainers, and other clients always have good vibes. Even after such a short time, I feel like I’m part of the IFT family.

Junior and the other trainers work hard and focus on every individuals specific goals. Before joining this gym, I had no idea what to do or how to get started. The guidance and support I’ve received has helped me gain the confidence and strength to keep pushing through the hard times.

If you are thinking about starting your fitness/lifting journey, I truly recommend giving this gym a try. I saw results in a couple of weeks and couldn’t be happier. Making this decision has impacted my physical appearance and most importantly my mental health.

I was experiencing pain in both knees and in my neck from an old injury. I have seen many practitioners over the years but none as effective as Candice White-Parker. I was able to work with Candice to alleviate much of the leg and knee pain and to strengthen those areas as preparation for a knee replacement. Candice's cranial techniques are exceptional and with regular care I was able to reduce the severity of pain in my neck. This has proven to be a great solution for an injury sustained in childhood (I am now 72 years old) that never healed properly. I recommend Candice for her commitment to her clients, her careful and well thought out approach, her techniques, affability and knowledge. Thank you Candice for helping me towards wellness.

THIS IS IT… I was looking for something unique - where I could get a full body workout in one hour… I found it, and then some! I’ve been with OTF Forest Hills for 4 months and look forward to going to my classes every day (often twice a day!). The staff is great, the coaches/trainers are knowledgeable & amazing, and the atmosphere and music are fantastic - it’s genuinely a warm community.
Love the vibe & loving my results!

I joined in October 2022 and could not be happier. Truly has become my second home. OTF Forest Hills is an amazing place. From the staff that is always patient, friendly and enthusiastic about your arrival and success to the coaches that push you hard while making you laugh, it is always a fantastic time and a great workout. OTF Forest Hills is always clean and tidy. Highly recommend to anyone looking to start their fitness journey or even looking to add a bit of spice and excitement to their current routine.

Love that it’s a mix of cardio and weights every class. Bonus is that the templates for each class is always different so you don’t ever get bored. The heart rate monitor is also a big plus! The coaches are personable, knowledgeable and willing to always help you. They’re always rooting for you every step of the way! The fact that anyone at any stage of their workout journey can join in on a class is also great. No matter if you’re a marathon runner or just starting to workout and you can only power walk. Being able to workout at any class at your own pace is wonderful and encouraging. No one judges you only encourages you at OTF and you can see the progression of the changes you make!

TABU FITNESS was definitely a life changer for me. From the start I knew it was special from the Love, Energy and Encouragement. I definitely recommend if you’re serious about Personal, Spiritual and Physical Growth. Also they help me get on a great eating plan to better my health and get the gains I was looking for. Five Stars is not enough.

Tabu is an amazing, cost effective way to get into shape with a community of like minded individuals. If you are tired of stopping and starting your fitness journey alone, I highly recommend joining.

I love this place so much. My go to coaches are coach Doug, Jessie and Bethany. They’re all super positive and welcoming. The front desk staff is super warm and friendly. The templates are great and challenging. I love how I feel after a workout here. They’re also super friendly on working with you of there are certain moves you can’t do. OTF became a healing place for me. Always highly recommend! Plus the place is super clean which is so important.

I joined Orangetheory less than 2 weeks ago, with the Astoria location as my home studio. I was told by Astoria staff during my onboarding that they allow one late cancellation as a courtesy to members. This morning, I woke up with a fever and had to cancel an early morning class. I asked my home studio if I could get the missed class back to my account, and they said I’d have to reach out to Bayside staff as they’re the ones charging for the class, and they said they hope I feel better soon. I reached out to Bayside, and Max was very robotic about Bayside’s strict policies and would not offer me a refund. I now understand Bayside has different policies but an “I hope you feel better” would’ve been nice from Max, who definitely needs some training in customer service.

I was in town visiting family and my cousin invited me to a special Sunday class. Boaaaa WE PUT IN WORK!! The trainers were very kind and they pushed us and motivated us to keep going through the whole thing. They are also hilarious and the energy was everything I needed. I felt encouraged and sooo good afterwards. Blessings to the team!! 10/10 experience.

Very good experience after having continued discomfort in my knee, attending the suggested program, the discomfort is gone, not only helped me with the discomfort in my knee but also in my body posture.
I highly recommend participating in the sessions that they offer and especially with David

Very corporate policies, hidden fees that they don’t tell you about until you get hit with a sudden charge. Even though they mention that the membership can be cancelled at any time, they still charge you an extra month. For example, I gave them more than two weeks notice that I wanted to cancel before my next billing cycle and they are still charging me an extra month. In summary, MAKE SURE YOU READ YOUR CONTRACT AS THEY ARE NOT UPFRONT WITH THE DETAILS. If you try to talk to them about these charges their response will be: “it’s corporate policy” or “it was in your contract.”

I started going to Iron Fortress Training when I knew I needed help to stay disciplined and learn how to workout properly. My trainer, Junior, has been helping me achieve my goals. Not only does he help me perform my workouts correctly but he has also helped me with my relationship with food. I learned what’s it’s like to balance my meals perfectly because of him. The gym itself is a clean space that is filled with positivity and motivation. The trainers are both very professional, supportive, respectful, and push you to succeed.

Cannot describe how much amazing gym its , I'm from dubai , and I really felt that I'm home , thanks alot

This is the only gym that can drag me there , I’m super excited that I found Orangetheory and believe me it is worth the money! Trainers are super helpful and friendly, always trying to look after you and engage you into the workout by encouraging . I go to bayside Orangetheory,there I met Alana,Sam, Brianna, Saya,Sam ,Max…they all are wonderful ♥️Overall Orangetheory is a wonderful experience ♥️

Best gym ever! OTF Bayside is my home away from home! I enjoy the variety of classes and the full body workouts. The coaches instruct you throughout the class and they are always ready to give modifications, tips, and tricks to help you succeed. The positive atmosphere is extremely welcoming. The OTF Bayside family is motivating and very supportive. There is an overall feeling of accomplishment after every class that is like no other. OTF challenges you to be a better version of yourself.

Love Orange Theory and the Bayside location so much. They have so many options for class times so you can be extremely flexible. Parking is surprisingly easier than expected too. Can't recommend enough!

First time going to OT and I was extremely impressed by the energy at this location. I went in at 5:50am and was greeted by smiling faces looking to make me feel comfortable on day one. Coach Lannie was absolutely superb bringing phenomenal beats to the class and energy that made you want to certainly PUSH that extra 1%! Highly recommend visiting!

Candice is so great to work with. She is extremely personal and kind and she really takes her time getting to know you. I originally went to see her because of chronic headaches. I've seen her just a few times so far and my headaches are gone. Not only is Candice a uniquely skilled practitioner (she trained in France) but is extremely knowledgable about the human body. The sessions are gentle, subtle movements that really make a difference. I highly recommend you give her a try!

My name is Karla and I started my journey to living a healthier life on 4/22. I decided I needed motivation to help me jump start my training at the gym. I chose this gym because of their amazing reviews and in fact those reviews were right. The environment is so welcoming and positive. Most of the time when you go into a gym it feels overwhelming with people and noise but here I feel like I can focus and give it my best on each segments of exercises. My trainer Junior is amazing he pushes me out of my comfort level in order to achieve my goals. I had a certain number of weight loss I was aiming and I feel like I’m getting closer each week. I’m not much of a morning person so it’s tough waking up early and going to the gym before work. When I get to the gym the adrenaline wakes me right up and feel energized that throughout the day I feel amazing because I made the effort to go to the gym and I’m able to work on myself. I’m starting to see my body transform to the way I want it. I’ve done certain exercises I’ve never done before and to be honest felt uncomfortable doing them at the beginning, but with Junior and Pedro as trainers, They have help me grown to master them and push beyond my limits… I can’t wait to see how I would look like by next summer…. and continue my fitness Journey..

Candice has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to the inner workings of the body. She was able to quickly find the root cause of my pain and offer an effective stretching protocol to get me back to healthy movement. I would highly recommend her services if you've been struggling with pain and searching for a solution.

I was recommended to Candice by a friend after mentioning my back and neck pain, and I’m very glad I went!
Candice took the time to ’scan’ my whole body and listened to my concerns. Candice is very knowledgeable and was able to alleviate my back/neck pain; her pressure points were right on target of where my discomforts were, and she gave me directions of what to do to prevent further pain. From discussing gut health to showing me routing stretches, Candice shared plenty of advice with me.

One thing to be noted as well is that Candice takes her time with you; you don’t feel rushed out of the room to take the next patient. Her 1-hour appointment usually runs longer and ends up being 1h15-1h20!

I really love this studio and everyone who works there. They’re so so welcoming, and the vibes are far from culty like some other studios. The instructors are helpful, professional, and and entertaining. I’ve seen the front desk staff handle unruly people with a level of grace I do not believe they should have needed to display, but was nonetheless impressed they did. The workout itself is challenging—but not unrealistic. The playlist are probably some of the best I’ve heard… and I’ve done A LOT of classes over the years. Overall 11/10. I would highly recommend you give it a shot.

The best treatment you can get for any physical pain!
Not only was Candice able to find the reason behind my repetitive injuries, she was able to treat the pain after the first session and give realistic exercises to take care of them.

She took the time to understand and treat the whole body. I recommended her to my husband already and am definitely planning to see her again.

Highly recommend!

Candice is amazing!! I’ve had on going shoulder pain from playing sports for as long as I can remember. Candice’s treatment was unlike any session I’ve ever had. She makes connections and treats the entire body as I learned it’s all affected from my shoulder tightness. I felt immediate relief leaving my treatment and I can’t wait to go back next week! Highly recommend !!

Candice has magical hands! If you’re Experiencing any sort of pain Candice will fix you right up! Along with her magical hands, her expertise on the human body is remarkable. She takes her time educating you about how to help fix the problem. I’ve never quite experienced somebody who just knows what your body needs the way she does. Don’t hesitate to book your appointment with her!

Because of Michelle, working out has become much more fun. Now, I actually know what I’m doing. Thanks for putting together my training program and helping me achieve the results. You truly are a professional.💓

Who knew that fitness training could make you feel incredible beauty. I sincerely have never felt this good. Pretty soon, I am going to be getting a whole new wardrobe to celebrate the new me! Thank you for breathing fresh air into my life! ❤️

Again, again and again, come to join us. Looking forward to seeing you!

Update celebrating! My 1 year! I have to say: all the coaches are amazing! Coach Justin definitely gives the Vibe and I do schedule all my night classes with him! Keep up the good work, because, of his encouragement/motivation skills I’m still part of orange theory! Overall 4stars/ Coaches 5 stars

I’ve been with Orangetheory Bayside, for almost 6 weeks! I have to say from the coaches every single one is amazing! Thank you so much for your hard work, and dedication motivation, I am definitely loving my results. When it comes to the front desk, I believe it should be a little bit more communication, but, Samantha is absolutely courteous and Beyond! I won’t mention any names at this point” definitely need some improvement, pretty sure everyone knows who they are, but this is a small group and I am still fairly new” lots to learn, so every single person matters, especially questions because, that means we are interested. Thank you so much Orangetheory Bayside💪🏻 And I am definitely excited for my first challenge, hoping for it to be a good one 🤞🏻

Update; I am back with Orangetheory, and feeling super motivated! I missed the workout,! Feels good being back

The whole gym needs newer equipment. Everything is pretty old and weights are thrown everywhere which is honestly a tripping hazard.

No one ever reracks their weights. The cleaning has definitely gone downhill.., I haven’t seen anyone actually clean anything in months.

I can never find any dumbbells between 15-20lbs which is very frustrating.

The ventilation/ cooling system is awful. It gets so incredibly hot in the morning as the portable A/C units stationed around the gym are never in use during this time.

Michelle and Rob have been so welcoming since day one, and now they’re like family to me. If it weren’t for them, I would have never realized my potential and ability to lift weights. They make working out fun and they’re always there to support you along the way with whatever goal you’re working towards. They’re incredibly knowledgeable in the human body - whether it is weight loss, weight gain (the healthy weight gain), strength training, that pain in your elbow and why and how to fix it, and even down to the nutritional tid bits!
The best part of the gym is that it is dog friendly! Imagine being able to work out and have your fur baby right there supporting you on the sidelines and licking away your sweat. Don’t worry, they’re on top of the cleanliness so you don’t have to worry. Highly recommend this gym to everyone and anyone.

I can not say enough about Empower Lift as a gym. If it is the great environment, great coaches or great physical therapy work they offer, they have it all. All of it is top notch and focused on 1 aspect having you train better, feel better and improve your fitness. Hands down one of the best gyms in Miami

Work on building strength or losing weight, it all happens at Empower Lift! It has become one of my favorite places where I can exercise, relax and make friends.

Gym co-owners Michell and Robert are professional trainers who use their years of experience and knowledge to help me set and achieve my fitness goals.

This boutique gym offers a selection of options for you to come in and enjoy the training. Besides group classes, Michell and Robert also provide personal trainings including nutrition and body treatment. They work one on one with you to keep you motivated and educated while providing you the most effective way to reach your fitness goals.

If you want effective workouts, if you’re tired of “commercial” gym, if you enjoy training with trainers who treat you as their friends and family, Empower Lift will be your right choice!

Best gym ever! You are given a lot of 1on1 attention and treated like you are family. Everything is customized to you and your body's needs because Michelle and Rob pay very close attention to everyone. They check in and a develop a close relationship with all their clients. Good people make a good gym and that's hard to find.

I started attending empower lift last summer and I only have good things to say about the gym. First off the the training staff there is amazing. They will work with you to help you achieve specific goals. They are also very knowledgeable and will push you to work hard. Additionally, the gym is full of positive energy. It is a great environment to workout in and everyone is friendly. The other members there won’t just become your friends they will be more like family.

Best gym in town.
If you’re looking for a friendly environment with great professionals that are ready to help you get healthier and look your best that’s definitely the place. Michelle and Rob are amazing coaches and will always go the extra mile to help you achieve your goals.
They are kids friendly and dog friendly.Empower lift is more than a business is a family.
I just love this place.

I’m a gym owner, boxing coach and personal trainer. My body goes through a lot of stress on a daily basis and specifically my shoulders. A few months ago one of my clients recommended that I see Robert at Empower Lift Gym for a massage therapy session and I’m glad I did. Robert is amazing and after my first session I knew I’d be returning often.
His knowledge and professionalism are top notch, I felt so good after seeing him I recommended a few of my gym members to see him as well.
5 stars for Robert Rosado and Empower Lift Gym.

The trainers here are friendly and extremely knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition. This facility also has great equipment and the intimate setting allows for the clients to build great relationships with one another if they want. I have worked with Danny for about 4 years now and I am thoroughly impressed with his constant growth in the industry. The most valuable lesson I have learned here is how to train my mind to overcome the mental roadblocks that come with training my body! I think anyone interested in coming here will be happy and will see results!

Positive and inspirational environment, family friendly, trainers are AWESOME. They are always there to encourage, education, and won't allow you to settle for less then your best, even then they push you a little further. You can see improvements within a month, as long as you follow their meal plans and be consistent in your work outs. Joining TABU Fitness is not something you do for a season, but it is a commitment to a more better and healthier you. God bless them all.

Great place if you want results.

Amazing fitness studio. Nkem is knowledgeable and pushes you to limits you didn't know you can break.

This review is written for those folks that are obese like myself and have doubts about training with NNOWW Fitness, before I found NNOWW Fitness on yelp I spent few weeks searching for fitness facility on google and yelp that specifically have knowledge training obese individuals cause I didn’t just want a trainer but a trainer with knowledge in food nutrition, at end of a long day of searching and calling places I found NNOWW Fitness ad and review their website information and what caught my attention was before and after pictures of the clients and later finding out that one of the before and after pictures was actually part owner of NNOWW Fitness, I reach out to them and setup a day to do a consultation. On the day of the consultation I met with Nina and as soon as I walk through doors she came up to me and gave me huge hello and hug and that alone caught me off surprise but as we discuss about what’s going on my life and why now I want to change I started to realize that her personality is not like what I ever encounter before she very Passionate about her work and what she wants to do for you, she also explain how she became a weight loss coach and trainer after being 320 pound obese individual herself. I didn’t know till after the consultation what I was looking for in a trainer but after that consultation I very much knew what I wanted, a trainer with personal knowledge on what it is and feels to be obese and know the amount of work it’s going to take to lose the weight but also figure out what lead you to become obese too. I was 322 pounds on August 14, 2017 and today is November 8, 2017 and I’m at 270 pounds with about 51 pounds lost already within few months and still losing on average 3 pounds a week or more. I don’t have a target number to hit and don’t want one either, from day one I wanted to learn how to make better choices when selecting food to eat and make fitness a normal routine and not just a temporary month thing. What I gotten out of NNOWW Fitness is opportunity to live a longer life then the path I was on before. Give NNOWW Fitness an opportunity to save your life too and start enjoying your life the healthy way. One day I told Nina she better than my doctor and I explain why too, my doctor told me I was obese and needed to lose weight, but never told me how to lose weight or where to go to lose weight. Nina didn’t tell me that I was obese cause why state the obvious, what Nina told me that a doctor never ever before told me was how to eat, what food to avoid, what food you should be eating, what your heart rate target should be and what my body fat percentage should be and how to do fitness. I feel very humble to have someone so bestowed in some many areas of expertise helping me in getting my life back in track. Nkem is the 2nd business partner in NNOWW Fitness, I have witness is training with clients and you not be more satisfied with knowledge and professionalism and attention to details that he gives his clients.

What to expect from NNOWW Fitness:
1: Weight Loss Coach
2: Certified Trainers
3: One on One Training
4: You learn more about your body than ever before
5: Your treated like a family and just like profit walking in
6: Provide you with tools to make better food selection
7: Enjoyment for life
And much more things then I can list...

The bootcamp classes are a great way to get your sweat on. Nkem makes each workout fun and varied. The small group training is more focused on using weights to give you both a strength and cardio workout in one. The other clients are all friendly and it's just a great vibe all-around. Try it out!

I highly recommend NNOWW fitness and my ( for more than 4 years) personal trainer Nkem for anybody who is serious about fitness and overall health. Whether you want to lose weight or just get stronger and more fit, he'll work with you to achieve your goals. It's always fun training with him!
Nina, co-owner and also personal trainer is great when it comes to nutritional advices plus the results she is achieving with her clients tells me she is equally good trainer too.

Great place, good professionals that will improve your lifestyle.

Won't stop text messaging me. I've never been a customer and never will be. I DON"T WANT TO SIGN UP WITH YOU.

I highly recommend their boot camp classes with Nkem. He is super friendly, personal, and hands on. Every time I go I feel accomplished and stronger.
