What have I gained almost 2 years and 300 work outs (soon!) later? Well, I've gained weight…read morebecause, well a yelpie must eat! (And drink). I don't follow the challenges or the recommended nutrition plans - that said, I may have gained but all of the 25-50 year olds that have followed the programs religiously have shown REMARKABLE transformations! I also have gained strength I never knew after DECADES of lifting, I could accomplish at 60+... I don't do a single burpee, but they have a fix for that. I don't do a lot of overhead work, but they have a fix for that. So when #granniehudsoneatsout (aka yours truly grannie yelpie) can scoop up a 27lb senile dog and pick her up and carry her like a football and not notice it... you know there's something going on. When I can carry stuff up and down stairs and not lose balance and not struggle... you KNOW there is something going on! When I can carry super loaded grocery bags or travel gear running through airports and not even break a sweat... It puts the F in FUNCTIONAL TRAINING. At least at Hudson, trainers are well educated in the field, certified and prepared to meet your needs. I'm building up to my 300 work out chin up (with bands of course) and by 400 my goal is to bust 1 without the bands... That is MY goal? What is yours? Best 45 minutes of the day. And I only go 3-4 days a week (some people practically live there even though the coaches discourage not taking rest days!). You have a lot to lose and a lot to gain when you join. And you will have a blast while you do it. HOWEVER - if you are straight laced, tight underwear, this is NOT the place for you. We don't take ourselves that seriously!

My daughter was training at F45 Hudson and then encountered some health issues. I was focused on…read moreher health and trying to get her better and did not think to look up the policy of her gym and arrange for her membership to be paused. When I finally did, I was met with a very corporate response. For a small gym with a family feel, I was disappointed at the coldness of the response without the manager/owner (?) even considering a way to accommodate us. We were told to refer to our membership contract and not offered any credit. I was actually surprised they didn't ask if she was ok when she stopped coming in suddenly after being pretty regular until she started having health problems. Lesson learned. This place is corporate and not really a family like place as I thought.

The combination of the recommended diet and personal attention in the workouts are the key to success. Ashley's expertise as a personal trainer is evident. I have been able to increase my flexibility, strength and balance. The workouts are always different and the 30 minutes goes by quickly. Today the studio sponsored a Zumba class at no charge. It was a lot of fun and it was obvious the staff put in a lot of work to make the day a success. I highly recommend GISW.

I've been to quite a few Gold's Gyms and this is one of the worse as far as staff is concerned…read more They got rid of some of their best trainers because whatever the company is called likes to screw their trainers over and so the good ones get fired or leave. They stink and they're in it for the money. The classes are pretty good, but so overbooked and it's hard to get into them unless you're really early. The equipment is pretty nice and they seem to be on top of replacing things, but sometimes the handles are worn and not replaced. Here's the worst part (for the gym, I think)...the people who run this place have NO clue what is going on in their gym. I used to walk in repeatedly without scanning my pass and no one ever questioned me at all. Then, a year later, out of the blue, I had a manager ask if she could see some I.D. I told her I had been attending for over a year and never had my membership questioned. She said, "well, I've never seen you...what's your name?" I knew her name and I also knew she just sat in her office or did a once around the gym....ugh, so rude. The owners since have been just as clueless and the people behind the desk just watch Cash Cab for hours on end. I give an A++++++ to the cleaning crew who deserve a heck of a lot more respect and clout than anyone who works the desk or management. This gym is out of the way for anyone in the town and has been said before, on any game day is hard to get to. I don't like world's gym either, but they are closer and at least the management knows the names of the people there.

Dina and Keith at Fitness Principles are awesome! Their energy is infectious and gets you motivated…read moreand pumped up for your workout. I first started training with Dina a few weeks ago. Before we started training we went through a FMS Fitness Test to see where my fitness level was, mainly focusing on mobility. Seems like years of biking and running without stretching has rendered me pretty immobile. Over the past few weeks of training it's been great to be able to work on my mobility and overall fitness levels to get me where I need to be in order to do simple exercises with the correct form. Turns out mobility is HUGE. Dina has been great in knowing where I am and customizing mobility focused workouts for my specific needs. Additionally, my workouts consist of nutritional education and homework (stretches and exercises) that I can take home in between workouts. I highly recommend investing in your overall health and fitness and signing up with Dina and Keith at Fitness Principles.

Do yourself a favor and experience the very best in strength and conditioning training while being elevated in mind and spirit.

She's gotten me hooked on feeling good, going the extra mile (or rep) and making time for myself. I don't think I've ever done the same workout twice, and she'll help you kick your own a** on a weeknight (Come find out about Saturday mornings!). Her studio, her clients and the environment she's created are truly special and if you are on the fence about working out...I promise you won't be after finding success in her classes! She modifies all the work before you have a chance to wonder if you might need it and you'll always leave with a smile on your face-either because it's fun, or you've just kicked your tush in ways you didn't know you could. (The old cliche stands true here-If I can do it AND love it-so can you!!) #getlivelycrew

I've been working with Jan for over 3 months now and I NEVER imagined the mindset shift that I have…read morebeen able to accomplish around food, eating, habits, and my self-esteem. I've always struggled with my weight, and trying weight loss diet's like WW, calorie counting, etc. never worked. I would get really strict with myself, hate what I was doing, feel terrible when I failed and then indulge more in food. But Jan and Get Lively have completely changed the way I think about food, my body, and my habits. Her in-depth intake process, constant focus on her client, and ever-evolving and individualized approached helped me to examine my deeply ingrained feelings around food and start to work on creating a healthier mindset and lifestyle. Her system is not a get fit fast approach, its a calculated and individualized approach that helps you to look inward and find the root causes that are holding you back from where you want to be and then a tailored approach of how to improve! I cannot recommend her enough and I know my friend who recently started her program is loving her too!

As someone who is an introvert and struggles with confidence (especially in the gym) the coaches go the extra mile to make me feel comfortable and prepared for each workout by providing modifications and words of encouragement! During COVID-19 I have had some of my biggest gains in virtual WODS with the chance to work on skills like pushups and double unders. While I am still transitioning back to the gym in person full time I have attended a few outdoor classes. CityLine continues to prioritize and maintain the health and safety of all their members while putting you through a hard workout and building community at the same time. I look forward to the at home WODS and going in to the gym every chance I get!

They will correct you if your form needs adjustments and will really encourage you throughout the class. I loved the culture where you have a circuit and if you finish earlier than your peers you cheer them on until they finish. I also want to give a special shout out to Coach Laurel who introduced me in the beginning of class to give me a warm welcome. She remembered that I was visiting from Long Beach and was here for the week in Boston and traveling to Vermont. I highly recommend to anyone who is interested in CrossFit. I loved it so much I even bought a t-shirt.
