Unfortunately, I'm not God's favorite... so I have to work out to maintain my figure... which…read morebrings me to my 7 year rollercoaster of a relationship with 24 Hour Fitness. I first joined in 2018 and it's sad to see how downhill the corporation has gone. The glory days ended shortly after the COVID pandemic. Since then, they've closed over 7 NJ locations, cut down opening hours, cut down on group classes, removed towel service, and have limited sauna and pool hours. I understand that it took time for gyms to recover and get back into full swing. But it's 2025 now. There's way too much competition in the fitness industry for 24 to be operating the way it is. My biggest ick? The gym is not maintained well at all. Machines and equipment are broken down for months. There's a hand dryer in the women's bathroom that has been out of order since last Spring. There's a constant foul smell in certain areas, most likely due to broken pipes. There's always a problem with the AC during summer months, making it uncomfortably hot. The entire facility needs a deep cleaning from head to toe. What are we paying a maintenance fee for? Come on... Putting the negatives aside, there are some positives. *The floor has all of your basic equipment: treadmills, bikes, stairmasters, squat racks, barbells, benches, dumbbells, kettlebells, TRX, cables, and machines. I can recommend this gym for beginner to intermediate lifters. It's not a bodybuilder or powerlifting gym. *Their Zumba classes are SO MUCH FUN. Don't judge a book by its cover... get in there!!! Take Lucia, Lynn, Nina, or Melissa's classes. Check the website for the full class schedule. *They have a sauna, steam room, pool, and showers with limited hours. I only use the sauna and it's relaxing when it's not super crowded. *The front desk staff is friendly and welcoming. They're personable and will remember you. *My membership allows me to have access to other regional locations as well as bringing guests. Pricing is a bit all over the place. It all depends on when you join, what kind of membership you have, and what sales/promotions are going on. Some members pay $24 or $34 a month, while others are paying $54. It's best to ask the front desk what the lowest rate is. Overall, it's not the worst gym in the world. It gets the job done for my fitness routine. I just wish the maintenance was a lot better and that they would have later hours. Honestly, I've been thinking about finding another gym. If it weren't for the friends and community I've made and my lower price rate, I would have left awhile ago. I'm willing to spend more $$$ on a membership for a much better experience.

At 7pm a young man by the name of Elijah came to the pool and yelled everyone out, pool is closed…read more I jokingly said, gee I wish ya'll were as aggressive about cleaning the bathroom/showers and filling the soap as you are about shutting amenities down. He informed me that he's not the janitor and I needed to chill. He said he told management about they situation and they don't care. I know that's not the case because they do. Sadly, anyone who used the bathroom there today went right back to the gym equipment sans handwash. Elijah had much bigger fish to fry.

Man, Frank needs to update Body Elites Fitness with some pictures of himself. Once people see the…read moregrey fox they'll know they need to make a visit with him. Literally a master at his craft - no other way to describe him. I've never met another trainer who is more knowledgeable than Frank. Not only is he trying to get results for clients, but he wants them to feel the difference in their bodies' with everyday tasks. I had some pain in my body and right away frank knew which muscles were too tight and where my imbalance was. Just a few pokes and he knew right away. Frank will exercise everything from flexibility to different types of lifting techniques. He tailors every workout for every client - he understands that everyone has different body types and needs and will personally customize the workouts in order to get you the results you want! Frank will also help you change your diet so you can achieve your goals! I know there are a lot of trainers out there who are just entertainers. This man is the real deal. He is literally a walking encyclopedia on exercise. The knowledge I've acquired by training with him is literally priceless. If you're ready to get serious about your health and fitness, you need to visit frank ASAP.

I've been going to Body Elite Fitness for the last 7 years. I wish I'd started 17 years ago. Frank…read moreis amazing and I love the personal service.

Went all the way down to join the club and Frank was extremely unwelcoming, so I will not be…read morejoining or coming back to that club...ever **Thanks for your response Andrew and thanks for the invite to keep MY review up. You need to get the facts straight first before you jump the gun on how friendly Frank was to me because that's simply NOT the case... My ID is 100% valid. Im retired like I told him several times This is what I clearly told Frank a year ago and he said that it was" no issue at all" ..So I ended up coming back to the club a year later to finally join up. He asked me for ID which I showed him, then he started to say oh didn't you come in here a year ago etc, so I said yes I did. He then tells me "oh your ID says retired you can join at the full rate" and "I told you last time that im not giving you the discount we offer ...(that's not true at all ), What he said was that it was NO ISSUE".. He started to examine my ID, hold it up to the light literally about 5 different times ,,,Not sure what that was about...I said Frank, " WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY ID- YOURE EXAMINING IT LIKE ITS A FAKE $100 BILL OR SOMETHING, I said is there an issue?????..and he says " OH NOTHING I WAS JUST LOOKING AT IT. He then continues to say he's not giving me the discount and he told me this last year. I said NO PROBLEM...I was leaving, asked him for my ID back, and he started taking pictures of my ID with his phone... Maybe you can clear that up for me Andrew..what was that about after I said no problem and was clearly leaving the club with my coat on. Why did he start taking pictures of My ID? I mean I could care less that you or him think my ID is not valid, I could care less about any discount, or joining your club..Thats not the point at all.. I just didn't appreciate the way I was treated..PERIOD. Its really as Simple as that..I hope this clears it up for you. My experience was not good.

However, in recent years I find myself…read moremore in agreement with Eliza G (Jun 9 25) who wrote: they only care about money and don't take members seriously. I had questions regarding options and changes to my membership and the manager Frances Frierson gave me a song and a dance "we'll get back to you". I waited several days, then went again in person and still could not get answers. Based on their their lack of caring regarding a member who still was looking to keep a membership, I decided to cancel instead-- why should I be loyal when they obviously didn't appreciate my long time membership and recommendation for them?

When I recently visited(July), the mold smell had decreased, but the floors still hadn't been repaired, causing dust to fly everywhere. Despite a long time passing, management only expected understanding from its members instead of fixing the issues, which led me to cancel my membership. ​However, I found out I had already been charged for June and July without even realizing it. I exchanged emails with the Assistant Manager regarding this issue, but she refused to provide a refund for those months, strictly citing their policy. I told her I understand their stance, but in fairness, I would be leaving a review about this experience. I have been a member here for over 5 years, but in the end, it is clear that they do not care about their members' health or safety. Horrible facility management and completely unfair billing. Avoid this place.

### Regarding Physical Therapy…read more I came in July to work on my shoulder. I couldn't do a pull up anymore or a full range pushup without severe discomfort. Previous effort helped normalize the pain, but I didn't make great progress on my own. I started with doubt that I could recover range and ability. Within 2 months of work so far, Taylor has stepped the programming based on his observations of my current ability. Just when I thought I was getting used to the work, he pulled the line. I was able to, as part of the regular programming able to do a pushup off the floor with disbelief. The same goes with a pull up as well. His decades of experience works you, as long as you give it a chance, consistently. ### Regarding Group Fitness Class The daily group classes are in a place of itself. It will introduce you to movements that you may not do well, increase your mobility and cardio fitness. There are many levels of people who participate, all growing together. The programming is well thought out and structured. Highly recommend as I have taken the dive fitting this into my various routines. Since the free trial, I am definitely moving differently compared to the extreme difficulty I had initially. I thought I had some kind of fitness, but this exposed me to challenge me. Living proof! Lets go!

Where to start? The air conditioning never works properly,…read moreso they cram large industrial fans which people fight over or point directly at themselves. The locker room ALWAYS smells. The floors are usually wet. The lockers are generally fine. Again, they have put a fan in there blowing at the toilets so you get that nice "Eau de Shit" because the air conditioning doesn't work. They have a machine in there that has never been on the entire time I've been a member. Fix the air, please. The gym floor is a lot better these days with the new equipment, but it still doesn't make up for the number of "trainers" that do not work there training several people at once, planting themselves up at a machine, that will now take even longer because every person they are training needs to use it. I can understand one or two people, but training like 4 or more people is out of pocket and just disrespectful to the folks just trying to get through their workout. Why did you guys move ALL the mats upstairs and not even say anything or put a notice up? Is it possible to sell protein snacks too? Lastly, the staff, for the most part, they never greet, smile, or seem happy to be there. Except the guy I'm guessing is the manager and the actual trainer they hired. Otherwise, it's just a bunch of kids that could give two shits about this job. They have a whole life ahead of them outside of PF one hopes. They aren't my kids. I'm talking to the owner, whoever you are. We appreciate the equipment you got to compete with Crunch, but we, the neighborhood, need more from our only gym in the area. Step it the fuck up, please!
