His enthusiasm and fitness expertise is motivating, and as I've gotten to know him over time, it's like we are working out together in the same room. (His gym set-up looks pretty solid from my remote perspective). Knowledge, patience, professionalism, personality ... Ryan offers all of these things and more. My body is back to where it was before the pandemic hit. Thanks, Ryan!

I am writing this review to express my gratitude to Carly a personal trainer at Base gym in Jersey…read moreCity. My experience was exceptional and I would recommend her to anyone looking to work with a personal trainer. Her vast knowledge in the physical fitness world is an asset to Base gym.

We are already in the beginning of June 2026 and there's no better gym to join than Base at 60…read moreChristopher Columbus Drive, Jersey City, NJ. Base is very inviting with 2 floors of all types of workout equipment and various classes. The locker rooms are clean and appealing with showers and steam rooms. One of the main amenities is the great location near the PATH trains, the fabulous pedestrian walk with shops a few blocks away on Newark Avenue. The patrons are mixed and the great staff is the best in town. This includes dedicated owner Craig, managers Erin, Mayrin and Caesar, and Franklin, Vika, Emily, Carly, Igor and Ebai, to name a few. Do stop in to have a look.

I thought I'd give this place a try (was Club Metro at the time). My expectations were not super high, because I thought, here's a budget end gym. Well, have I been surprised and pleased over the years! It's not fancy, but they do everything pretty well. I have a trainer who is the best trainer I've ever had, by leaps and bounds. (Gabe). The staff and management are very friendly, helpful, and accommodating. It's about as clean as could be. Equipment is good, well-maintained, and there's plenty of things to do, so it never feels too crowded. If you're in the market for a gym in Newport, I would recommend Fitness Factory over the poorly managed Newport Swim & Fitness (unless you need a pool).

First class took with a friend Train Jane and wow what a workout. Loved the vibe dance and resistance training in between. Then went back following weekend for Tramp Stamp and that was even more challenging workout on a trampoline. I wish more class times during week. But definitely will be adding this workout and studio to my workout routine. Also love the sense of community with the women and staff. Feel a sense of belonging from Day 1. Also love that founders are Rockettes & Jersey Girls hidden gem and glad I found them.

I didn't know anything about weight lifting and was a running/yoga/cycling person for years…read more There's so much conflicting information on the internet about weight lifting and I felt confused and overwhelmed. I just wanted a gym that wasn't crowded and a trainer to help me learn how to start and I literally walked by Surge fitness one day, liked the vibe, and decided to sign up. I'm still there 2 years later even though I'm way more familiar with weight lifting now. The gym has a good feel, and you never have to wait for a machine or a bench. Everyone is really supportive and the environment isn't intimidating or ultra competitive, it just feels like working out with friends who push you just enough when you need it. I have a home gym also but I keep going here because I always get a harder workout and I make more progress at Surge fitness than I would alone.

I've been going to this gym since 2019 when they started CrossFit and was new to the area. I was so…read morehappy to find a CrossFit gym that was walking distance. This year they made major renovations and improvements which included a sauna and showers. It's a good looking gym! Community is small which is great cause you'll know everyone's name! If you've never tried CrossFit, this is definitely a place to start. Not pretentious or intimidating at all. If you need help with nutrition Coach Kim is your go to as well as help with scaling movements Manager Coach Jan is an easy going guy you can talk to if you want to improve your lifting techniques. Overall it's a clean facility with great people and coaches! A vending machine for pre/post workout snacks. Also I heard they have a coffee shop opening up any day now that's attached to the gym! What more can you ask for!

I dropped into an evening class and was immediately welcomed by both the coaches and members alike. My interactions were genuine and I was not met with a sales pitch or conversation about packages and payment plans. I was met with a conversation about what I was looking for and my goals. Being a member now for months, I can attest to the fact that the genuine community that I met on day one is still just as real and genuine today. The physical space of the gym works perfectly for me! It's clean, has good music, and all the equipment that I regularly use. All trainers are knowledgeable and friendly. The classes are challenging, fun, and have plenty of scaled options for all fitness levels! I definitely recommend dropping in and giving it a try!

The instructors are super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful and it seems like it's a really great community without being clicky.

I do understand that it could take some time to implement the new hours of operation in jersey city. That aside arriving at opening which is 5am weekdays and waiting 45 minutes for someone to open and no one ever showing up is unacceptable. This is the 3rd week in a row that this has happened. I'm not certain what's going on with management. I'm paying for access to workout at this facility at a time that's convenient for me but unable to because someone isn't doing their job. This is extremely frustrating. I hope this issue is addressed immediately otherwise, I will be canceling my membership and taking my business elsewhere.
