The place is a little run down, beat up, and gritty, just like the gyms I trained at back in the 80s. If you're looking for shiny new equipment and spa vibes, this isn't for you. But if you're serious about training, welcome home. You won't find Planet Fitness types here -- this is a place for hardcore bodybuilders, strength athletes, and a few tough strength ladies who know their way around the iron. Over the decades, they've built up an incredible collection of equipment, giving you multiple ways to hit every muscle from every angle. The cost is very reasonable, the staff is friendly, and the best part? The members feel like family. Whether it's offering training tips, sharing a laugh, or giving you a spot when you're pushing your limits, everyone has your back. If you're not faint of heart and want a gym with soul, history, and community -- join Ultimate Gym.

It can get a bit crowded at certain times of the day and since its a really small gym youll be waiting a bit to use your preferred machine. The staff are all well mannered people and have never given any issues. HOWEVER........ The one major drawback to this place is that it almost never has any running hot water. Every month seems to be an issue (and im not exaggerating). Im not sure if they are having trouble paying the bills here or if someone is turning the hot water valve off for days at a time but it is a constant issue. Me personally I work out before i head straight to work so a shower is needed after a hard hour or two sweating bullets. Just this morning I walked to the locker room after working out and one of the guys who frequents this place said to me "hey the water is luke warm today" and this is the running gag with everyone here, being delighted just for luke warm shower water. Litterally everyone in the locker complains about it every month. Anywho I step in the shower and put it on max heat but instead was drenched in water from antarctica. I did find some comic relief in it though, as others who stepped in there showers looking forward to the "luke warm" rumor but were disappointed, and then it became a symphony of complaints and anguish LOL. Theres something very funny about grown men just in agony about not having hot water. Men of all ages young and old getting together in a gym locker room and throwing a fit. I was told that blink was bought out and now owned by a company called PURE FITNESS. Well pure fitness, how about some pure hot water? Seriously though, the only reason i still come here is because its literally right by my job and also because its been so hot that the below zero water isnt so bad once you step outside in that 90 plus degree heat. Yet winter will be upon us soon and i dont know if i can survive bathing in arctic water without turning into a chocolate freezy pop. The one thing I do appreciate is that when you walk in they now have a sign that stands by the desk letting you know that theres no hot water. The thing is the sign is standing for weeks at a time. Seriously, in june there was no hot water for almost 3 straight weeks. I mean i cant understand whats going on at this place. We had hot water all last week and then i walk in this morning and its cold again. I just realized that it is the end of the month and I know now that liberty utilities doesnt play about that money.....

I'm not from NY and was not previously familiar with Bev Francis' Powerhouse Gym. What an experience! First, this place is enormous. Largest square footage of pure lifting equipment I've ever seen, and even more so, the largest variety of machines. Some contraptions so esoteric, it's not even clear what muscles they work from looking at them. The place is like the Smithsonian of weight machines. But there were a few things I discovered that I really loved and wished my own local gym had something similar. Second, this place is crowded. I was there mid-morning Saturday, and it was packed. I didn't need to wait for machines since I wasn't following a specific program, but if I had gone with a very specific set of exercises and order in mind, it would have been frustrating. The equipment condition varied depending on their age. Some was great, some seemed like they should have been retired a decade ago. Be aware that the gym caters more to elite bodybuilding than elite powerlifting. It won't make a difference for 99% of people, but as one example, there was a relative paucity of squat racks and benches for a place this large. If you are worried about being intimidated by the clientele, that may be a reasonable concern. I'm one of the biggest guys in most gyms, and I was only about average among the 100+ guys that were there. Having said that, there were only 1-2 freakishly large dudes (i.e. probable pro-bodybuilders), and the handful of people I interacted with seemed all relatively friendly. But it's not a place for beginners. Tiny annoyance: they have 2 scales which differed by 7 pounds (despite zeroing the ancient balance scale)

Prices are a bit steep but it gets better if you go on a family plan. They also provide a lot of gym amenities to make the pricetag worth it. From pickleball courts to rock climbing. Basketball courts as well. There are so many things to do at the facility beyond normal gym and fitness. They also have an indoor and outdoor pool. Both of them are very large and spacious. The outdoor one also has waterslides and a poolside bar and grill. It really feels like a resort. The indoor amenities are good as well. You can relax in the hot tub or sit in a sauna/steam room. There are also cold plunge pools. I love the unlimited studio classes. Xtreme intervals and maxout upper/lower body are my favorites. The instructors are energetic and motivating. They always keep me on my toes while keeping the overall class still fun and entertaining. If you're looking for more than just a basic gym, Life Time is the place to be. Highly recommend--it's transformed my fitness routine!

No line for the equipment, plenty of dumbbells available for this dumbbell at all times, proactive maintenance staff who keep the showers, sauna, toilets and the workout floor clean and stocked; nice layout with a quiet room with loads of mats to do stretching, yoga poses( 2 seconds for me) and ab work, a nice tricep pull-down area and a basketball court. No racquetball but Farmingdale is just a few minutes east. Love that the juice bar has added protein pre made meals in their freezer with a microwave for immediate consumption. The sauna is always hot. I get to this location maybe 3 or 4 times a year. I have to mention the wonderful Gabriel who opened the gym in the snowstorm at 7 am sharp. He was happy and welcoming as the rush came in. Thank you LAF for being open today. Now it's foodie fun time as the NFL Championship games are just a few hours away.

Every time I see Alan, he greets members with a warm smile and takes the time to ask how they're doing. That level of personal attention is rare and makes everyone feel welcome. He's also one of the few managers I've noticed who politely reminds members to re-rack their weights as a courtesy to others, helping keep the gym organized and safe. Alan takes pride in maintaining the equipment and is always visible on the gym floor, making sure everything is running smoothly while checking in with members. His positive attitude, strong work ethic, and commitment to excellent customer service truly set him apart. L.A.

I am already in the best shape I have ever been in and it only took 8 weeks. This program has it all : structure, motivation, personal attention from trainers and a supportive group of people cheering you on. Before TFW I had tried it all. Group classes, boot camps, p90x. Nothing kept me motivated the way TFW did. The combination of power lifting and compound exercises is so effective, you see results right away. When you hit your personal bests and keep pushing through in class, it has a ripple effect in your life.
