This is for the Jersey City location - I am writing this review from the perspective of a newbie who is getting back to fitness after a month off due to camping adventure and toll on the body. As a parishioner of St. Michael's, I often would hear the music at the 10:30 am mass and I wonder what it was. Time later, I saw an ad for F45 and I was like, Why not? I live close by. I followed the sign and I felt I was going to a Speakeasy. I am glad a good samaritan was right behind me and guided me through the basement area and long corridor. I just left their Tokyo class. I truly dont know why they call it Tokyo and kudos to the coaches - Jackie and Hernan! AMAZING. I told them my injuries and they provided modifications and suggestions amidst a very packed 9:30 am sunday class. Management - Please give them a raise!! As a former fitness pro, I am amazed with their high level of professionalism and I would come back again. read more

I'm a huge fan of F45 Flatiron. Having done F45 in a variety of locations in TX and CA, I can say F45 Flatiron stands out for two main reasons: (1) Starts on time, everytime! At other F45s I've been to, people trudge in late and at different times. It can be distracting and disruptive. (2) Awesome instruction. I'm always getting feedback on form, and the instructors are always engaged. I appreciate the attention to detail, it's the only way I can improve. I go here almost everyday - highly recommend for anyone that's looking to burn fat, build muscle, and do it efficiently. read more

UPDATE: after receiving a "fairness" talk from the owner, I'd like to mention this facility has trainers that do not obey rules and have started class multiple times after the instructed time AS WELL AS let people into the class after the start of class. I have watched trainers and members talk and hold the class for up to 5 minutes after it should have started...I will never come to this F45 again and you shouldn't either I promise you, run!!!! I also felt discriminated because I am Puerto Rican and not given the same curtesy of other members. I showed up to a class one minute later and was not let in, when I am always 20-15 minutes early to the point where I've waited outside in the freezing cold to be let in. Rudest people I've ever met and mean trainers that make you so uncomfortable. This place has gone so downhill hence why the only food reviews are from a year ago. From someone who has worked at an F45, PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE !! The staff are extremely rude and aggressive creating an atmosphere that is never tolerated at F45. Go somewhere else who deserves your membership. Money hungry studio :( read more

I never get bored at and f45 class! They keep you moving around the room and instructors will provide modifications if it looks too easy or hard read more

Great classes but please oh please give your trainers mics to speak through like every single other gym in this city. Forcing them to yell over music is bizarre and it's hard to hear. read more

I did the 1-week trial to get an idea of what they offer. It was a mixed experience, so I'll list the positives and negatives here. Positives: - The training program itself is excellent. Lots of varied equipment and the workouts are well designed. Classes are 40 minutes to an hour, and time is used very efficiently. - There are screens at the front of the class that show a person doing the exercises, allowing you to learn the moves quickly and refer to them when you need. - Everything was clean and COVID-safe. Negatives: - They are extremely aggressive salespeople, and won't back off. I continually received text messages from someone named Daniel, trying to sell me membership deals. I politely asked him to stop texting, but as the messages continued, my replies became more and more direct: "Stop contacting me". Unbelievably, even after I told him to stop contacting me, he then called me from what I assume was his personal cell phone number, because it was not a number listed for the company. Weird and scary. I took screenshots and sent them to the corporate office. - They play music with lyrics that include the "N" word. Why do we need to listen to hate speech when we're working out? read more

I can't say enough good things about the HIIT training they do here. So I won't. Jk. this place is the best group class I have ever experienced. People are friendly yet serious about being fit and their amazing instructors push you to your limits. You do not notice the time going by because you have very little time to be bored. You will be pushed and motivated and after 30 something workouts in 45 minutes, you will come out feeling like a million bucks and sweat out hundreds of calories. This is not for the faint of heart however. Come ready to get your ass kicked. A lot better than working out by yourself at a gym and running on the treadmill. Coming from a gym-goer for the past 10 years who detests some of the less intense group classes, I endorse f45 workouts wholeheartedly. read more

Best instructors and HIIT workout! Really transformed my body since the classes are effective and productive. I'm a runner and have tried plenty of other workouts before but so far nothing have kept me so long like F45 Training. **Joined 8 Months and still ongoing membership** Instructors are very professional and amazing! I love all of them but my favorite are definitely Grace, Dina, Gareth, Jasmine, and Heather since they really help corrected my posture and challenge me more to the next level. Also the owner, Luke, is very nice and helpful all the time. It's definitely an amazing community and feels great to be part of the F45 family. Overall, the studio is pretty nice with all the cool equipment. They are always updating and giving the best tools to the customer to use. You really get what you paid for because for an expensive membership you are offered top notched quality! Highly recommended to individually who are all about fitness and are serious about transforming their body to the next level! read more

I just signed up for the 8 week challenge at F45 and took to trial classes there this weekend before it started. I love it. What really makes it stand out is how nice the trainers are, I can tell it is a place you can easily get addicted to. As for the workout - amazing. I love the short rounds of exercises, it makes the class go by fast but it is by no means easy. The trainers are also really fit, which is something I look for anywhere I workout (and is not always the case). I was sore and felt accomplished and I can't wait to go back. read more

This place is run or managed by a dictator unfortunately. I signed up for a 5:30 class and was there exactly at 5:30. They were literally at Station 1 in their demonstrations. Unfortunately, that was not enough for the dictator in charge and I got booted out of the class unceremoniously in the name of safety (yes, F45 is akin to me operating a Falcon 9 /s). If they had looked up my record, they would have realized that I have done 10s of the same class since F45 is cyclical. Places like these don't understand the basic principles of life. People work out to relieve physical and mental stress, not to accumulate more. read more

Really love working out at F45, as the name itself suggests, the workouts here are extremely functional and effective. I also like how structured the class is/how we can always refer to the videos in case you forget what's going on - and the trainers are always there to help/correct you. Just took two trial classes with Jasmin Carrington (Athletica/Hollywood) and loved both classes - also signed up for a 10 classes pass. The trainers here are extremely friendly (even the ones who aren't teaching you) and they are always there to help during class. Highly recommended!! read more

Have been doing their 2 week trial and love it ! They set it up so M/W/F is a cardio based workout, T/Th is resistance based, and weekends are combo. Depending on the workout there are ~3 'pods' and ~3 workouts within each pod that you rotate through with set intervals of work and rest. They do a demo in the beginning but it's okay if you don't catch everything -there are video screens showing each move, with a countdown for how how much time you have left to go. It utilizes different equipment + body resistance, with the friendly instructors going around to give encouragement and correct form. I work out regularly and get a good sweat from this. Facilities are also nicely maintained - towels & water cooler available, full locker room downstairs with 3 showers. Well stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body & face wash + lotion, hairspray, deodorant, pads & tampons. read more

Spent years wasting time at the gym. Lack of direction and focus. This forces you to focus and there is a friendly competitive component. The time flies by and suddenly after a few weeks, you've achieved those goals you never thought possible. read more

I just finished two classes with the Intro Offer, and I really enjoyed the experience! I took the Miami Nights and Hollywood classes on the weekends, both of them were great! The classes were challenging but satisfying at the end! They are a good combination of cardio and strength training. The classes are set up with different stations, we spend about 40 seconds in each. It could be a bit confusing at first since there were so many of them, but they have screens to show the moves of each station. During the class, instructors are encouraging and pay close attention to our forms. I really appreciated that, especially for beginners like me. The facility is clean. The woman's bathroom is stocked with most of the stuff you'll need post workout- towels, shampoo and conditioner (from Bumble& Bumble), shower gel, face wash, hair dryer, hair spray, deodorant etc. Their bathrooms are very clean, actually one of the cleanest I've seen. I guess the only downside is that there isn't a proper walkway out to the door. There's usually another class 15 minutes after one ends. In that case, we might need to go through the class in order to walk out of the studio. Overall, my experience with F45 is amazing. I really like the friendly environment there. The trainers are encouraging but not pushy. I will definitely be coming back! read more

I'm relatively new to working out and was honestly a little nervous about this class. There were definitely a lot of people stronger than me and more experienced, but I felt like I could still go at my own pace and got a good workout in. I also have shoulder issues and the trainers helped me modify the moves so as to take the pressure off of them. I'll definitely be back! read more

Amazing gym and programming! Welcoming and helpful trainers and owners, everyone here makes waking up at 6:30am everyday easy! The workouts change everyday so you are never bored and you never want to miss a day because they are so unique and exciting! Very clean gym and locker rooms with great amenities! read more

Today was the grand opening of F45 at Flatiron. I signed up for 9:30am Hollywood class with their 2 weeks trial. There are 27 stations, you spend 45 seconds at each station, 15 second off, then onto the next exercise. It was a really good combination of arms and legs and cardio exercise! Every time you go for your class, will be a different set of exercise. Best part - they have amazing instructors! Yes plural - they actually come up to you and correct your form, and help motivate you for that 45 seconds. It sounds like a short period of time, trust me, it is NOT easy! Super friendly, super helpful instructors! (So grateful!!). I've been to a few other popular work out classes, even those that's not on ClassPass - they don't tend to fix your form. I am going to see if I can stick to a week of coming here regularly since this is kind of out of my way to get to work, if I can, I will definitely be joining the monthly. but I will definitely be adding this to my work out routine, and I am absolutely going to drag my husband here. You definitely needs to give this a try - it will be tough, but u will be so happy u did it. I never felt happier leaving a gym (despite in so much pain) read more

I've tried it all and also certified in training and this is my ultimate favorite workout. They always mix it up but is always stemmed around functional HIIT. I always look forward to coming because it's challenging but attainable. Everyone is super friendly always and it's always clean and in order. Very affordable if fitness is one of your priorities!! read more

TL;DR: Good workout regiment, though it's going to cost you a portion of the entire United States' total debt. My co-worker convinced me to do the $36 trial. When I first went inside there, I got greeted by a person with a Kangaroo accent, I initially thought that the workout is going to be hunting crocodiles or exterminating emus. The workout was great. It got me exhausted, tired, sweaty, but pumped. Good workout. The trainers are true professionals and very friendly. Beginner or experienced fitness person, you will get a good workout. Now if you want to do this workout before going to work, worry not, the bathroom comes fully stocked. This is where majority of the F45's revenue goes into. The showers has 3 different types of fancy shower soap. I had so much fun using so much of that scented body wash. They even have hair dryers and towels readily available. Even the toilet makes your defecating experience fun. Now, the biggest drawback is that F45 is expensive. If you are one of those yuppies or hipsters moving into NYC that negatively affects the original and life-long NYC residents (screw you gentrification), then you can probably afford F45 while drinking your vegan, non-gmo, organic, gluten-free, dairy free, low calorie Starbucks drink. But if you the real deal of NYC, you're probably better off just paying for the trial and just go back to a regular gym. Long story short, good workout, very very excellent bathroom, but the price of F45 could probably buy you an army to invade Canada. read more

The classes go by extremely quickly, while also being effective. The best part is the size of the class, because you never feel overcrowded. The classes pushed me to try things I wouldn't do on my own, for example strength training. The facilities are super nice, with bumble & bumble products in the shower and various products to use. For me this super important, as I often workout prior to work. read more

Best workout there is! The energy is addicting and makes you want to workout harder, better, and stronger. The trainers are all friendly and push you to your limit. Absolutely love it! read more

Always a great experience working out at F45 Flatiron. Great instructors and thorough workouts in a spacious, clean facility. Highly recommended. read more

Favorite fitness class in NYC! The owners and staff are amazing and facilities are great.

Awesome training studio in Flatiron! Classes are 45 minutes but go by extremely quickly. I tried F45 out with 2 free classes and was not disappointed with either. I workout everyday yet still felt out of shape after each class at F45. Coaches are extremely supportive and will work with you in order to ensure you get the technique correct. Each day at F45 is different, meaning your muscles will never get used to the workout. Some days are reserved for cardio, others for resistance and core. The place is very clean. The bathrooms and showers are immaculate compared to other gyms in NYC. I am only spending the summer in NYC but will definitely purchase a package very soon. You truly cannot get a better, more satisfying workout! Sometimes it does get confusing with knowing how stations rotate so my only recommendation is for coaches to make clear how stations rotate during each class. read more

I really liked training at F45. The space is new, so all equipment is in prime condition. F45 focuses each day on a different type of training. M/W/F is focused on Cardio, Tues/Thurs on strength training, and Sat/Sun on a combination. I attended Tuesday and Thursday classes and personally preferred the Thursday training. The class moves quickly but has video screens to lead you along the way - which is super helpful to remember correct form for each exercise. Dina was a great and attentive instructor. Other things to note: Fully stocked locker rooms (shampoo/conditioner/body/face wash), with 3 showers in the women's. Towels, hair dryers, deodorant, and lotion. Plenty of lockers to use but do not include locks (bring your own). Overall, a really efficient way to spend 45 minutes. I'll definitely be back. read more

I just finished their two-week trial and loved it. Every day was different and I was always challenged and pushed to my limits (or beyond). After the two weeks, I feel much stronger. The instructors are great. And, you don't ever get confused bc 1) there's more than one instructor to help you out 2) they demo all the exercises 3) the wall monitors show you what you need to do. Also, it's totally do-able before work. They have full shower facilities, and hardly ever a wait. read more

Love you guys!! In town from LA (F45 Venice ) and was so stoked to make it to a class. Shawn was so sweet and totally kicked my ass! Will definitely be back. Thank you!! read more

F45 Flatiron is wonderful. Every trainer is attentive and friendly. And it is a kickass workout. I've done every workout trend out there...F45 is by far the very very best! read more

Really enjoyed the class!! I've done crossfit and Barry's. This is a combination of the two.

First workout I've ever committed to for years. Properly! Good facilities too. Plenty of space. Good equipment. Great trainers. The analytics used from my heart monitor keep me motivated in each class. read more

Just tried F45 for the first time and I enjoyed the "Mkatz" workout. The staff was beyond friendly and welcoming. The coaches were especially attentive and helpful to me as the "new guy" in the room. Do I wish their space was about 25% bigger? Sure. That said, they are doing a great job with every square foot they have. read more

Friendly, efficient instructors. Different workout every time - good variety of exercises.

Best workout class I've done, and I've done a lot of different classes. I like that each day is a different workout so it never gets boring, the instructors are encouraging and friendly, and the workout itself really pushes you. I feel like I got a good workout in after every class and that there's always room for improvement which keeps me coming back. The facilities themselves are nice and clean so I can come in the morning before work and feel comfortable showering and getting ready. read more

Great workout! Heart rate was up and felt challanged on a cardio day. I will definitely be back for more.

I had a Gilt voucher for 10 classes and only ended up using 3 of them. 1. Class sizes are so big it is almost impossible for instructors to pay any attention to anyone. On top of this, some instructors simply don't care. Shaye and another instructor teach the Tuesday classes; Shaye is amazing but the other instructor quite literally does nothing. She walks around singing and dancing as people are doing movements with terrible posture. 2. I did enjoy their Tuesday classes but the last one I tried was absolutely ridiculous which is why I ended up leaving mid-class. I've taken over 300 classes in NYC and only left maybe 2-3 classes before. The concept changed, so the time spent at each station is even shorter; there isn't enough space to make a quick transition. Also when you're handling weights I don't understand how it makes sense to make such fast transitions. Right when you figure out how to have decent posture - time is up. I've injured myself before and am not looking to get injured again. All in all, there are maaaany other great studios with the same concept. Such as the Fhitting Room, Switch Playground, Kore etc. They make sure to correct your posture and it is not utter chaos. Wouldn't recommend this place! read more

F45 was AMAZING! Everyone is so nice and the workouts are perfectly intense. I will definitely be returning and can't wait to try another class! Ps: the locker rooms are the best I've seen in the city. Fully stocked with lockers, showers, blow drivers, towels, etc! read more

Honestly the best group workout I've ever done! So motivating and you won't get a better workout in under 45 minutes anywhere else!

Classes are always fun and are never the same and the trainers are amazing! F45 is the only workout I'll never get tired of.

This place is amazing!! It really pushes you beyond your limits. I enjoy that the trainers are so nice and make you feel like family. I appreciate that even if something feels difficult they try to help or give you alternatives. The locker rooms are always clean. I just love this place overall! Can't wait to go back. read more

I tried F45 with their grand opening 2 week trial earlier this month. I went there about 7 times over those two weeks and enjoyed each and every time. The instructors there are great and super friendly, especially the owner Luke, and they tend to learn your name fairly quickly. The classes are challenging and push you to your limits. THE CLASSES: There are a variety of different classes, but essentially, generally involve some type of quick circuits where you go through 15+ stations, each with different exercises, during the class. At first, it could get a little confusing rotating stations every minute or so, but the instructors (usually 2 or 3 instructors per class) help you through the confusion and you grow to understand their rotation system pretty quickly. They are also there to correct your form and make sure you are doing your workouts correctly. THE FACILITIES: Their facilities are amazing. The studio is brand new and features the usual amenities you would expect in a workout facility, like water bottle refill machine and towels. However, their bathrooms are among the best I have seen, especially for a studio focused more on HIIT and weight workouts. There are 3 showers in the woman's locker room, and the shower line in the morning usually goes by pretty quickly. They have Bumble & Bumble shampoos and conditioners, which I loved. They also have ample space for changing - with large benches along the walls. However, note that you need to bring your own lock for the lockers, since they aren't the digilock ones. And my only real gripe about their facilities is their hair dryers. They have the hair dryers that are super mini and mounted on the wall, like the type many hotels have, and these hair dryers do not have a turbo mode, cool shot, or diffuser. I am not sure why they didn't invest an extra $5 or so per hair dryer to get stand alone hair dryers that have a little more features. read more
