    Calibrated rogue Powerlifting plates and Texas Power Bar!
    Jeffrey T.

    Best gym in remotely near the bronx! If you're a powerlifting enthusiast, this is the gym for you. At only a year old and only getting better! Monolifts, calibrated rogue plates, top of the line barbells, ample space for an amazing price, turf, strongman equipment and amazing members.

    Midday Saturday Good  Crowd

    This was a Hardcore Gym! The weights and Dumbbells was neatly organize! A power lifting and Bodybuilding Atmosphere! Awesome weightlifting machines, cables and Hammer Strength! The energy level was great, they played good music! This Gym is fairly new so wasn't a lot of people there, which is a plus for me! Customer service was ok 7 bucks for a guess pass! The only flaws of the gym was the locker rooms was a joke! This gym has completely no showers what so ever! The leg and Cardio area of the gym needs work and improvement! Overall, I would most certainly be workout here again!

    This review is not directed at the employee but at the management of this gym. I am a 36-year-old…read morewoman, and in nearly 20 years of going to different gyms, I have never experienced a male employee cleaning the women's locker room. I recently had a very uncomfortable experience with this at your facility. When I spoke to a female staff member at the front desk, she explained that there is only one male janitor and one female janitor. If the female janitor is not on shift, the male janitor is scheduled to clean the women's locker room, and he places a sign outside to alert members. She also mentioned that both she and other female members have expressed concerns about this situation. Unfortunately, a sign outside does not protect the privacy of women inside the showers, sauna, or changing areas, as they cannot see the sign once they are inside. During my visit, I personally witnessed an elderly woman in her underwear while the male janitor was cleaning, which was extremely uncomfortable to see and highlighted just how problematic this policy is. Having a male employee clean the women's locker room is, in my opinion, a violation of privacy and creates an environment where many women, including myself, feel unsafe and uncomfortable. I strongly urge management to reconsider this scheduling policy and ensure that only female staff clean the women's locker room.

The thought of adding more pain to my daily dose of it was not something I was looking forward to. But Margarita really paid attention to everything I told her about my medical history and she created a very thoughtful and safe workout plan for me. I am getting into better shape than I was in my 20's. I am doing things like deadlifts - something I never knew my body was capable of! I feel strong and healthy again. It's truly been an amazing journey! Margarita cares about her clients. Her passion for health and fitness is evident from the moment that you meet her. She is one hundred percent what a great trainer should be and I'm grateful for her!

I joined her program for a month, she gave consistent coaching and a nutritional diet for my body type. Immediately I lost water weight in like the first two weeks. She is very motivating, punctual, and consistent with communication in every aspect of your journey. Lastly, she has a nice cozy workout studio that will have everything you need to buss your butt to get back in shape. Do not delay and invest in yourself by trusting your body goals with her.

Every time I've come, the locker room has been clean. You bring your own lock but sometimes, if I'm not carrying much, I'll just have my stuff on the floor with me. The treadmills are decent. There area few older ones I prefer not using, but in the early evening, it's a hit or miss, because they get pretty filled up. Weight training is great. They have a few locations on the floor for Olympic bar work. I was able to perform my pyramids sets with an ease of adding and removing weights. During peak time, however, it can be difficult finding a spot. You might find yourself having to wait and adjust your workout due to what's available. All in all, the gym fits my needs and I will look into a possible membership. I like that they're 24 hours. I have a current rotator cuff injury, so I will be waiting until I get the go ahead, to begin my future modified workouts.

    I've never left a review before, but this gym has pushed me to my limit. The list of issues is…read moreendless. The air conditioning was broken for months this past summer -- forcing members, many of whom are minorities, to work out in unsafe heat. The facility is filthy, machines are constantly broken, and the saunas and pool were actually shut down by the health commissioner (yes, you read that right). The leg press has been broken for months, weights are scattered everywhere, and half the benches are ripped apart. The squat rack is always missing plates, and sometimes you can't even find a 10 lb weight. Every machine feels like it's about to fall apart. I tried to stick it out, but you can't even have a decent workout here -- it's impossible to track progress when everything's broken or missing. I finally canceled my membership. This gym is an embarrassment and should be inspected immediately.

    Former Member - Bronx Native…read more Before I joined the Navy, this gym was my regular spot. I lived five minutes away, born and raised in the Bronx, and for a while it felt like a community space. I'd run into people I grew up with, friends from high school, people I hadn't seen in years. That part meant a lot to me. Unfortunately, the front desk and management ruined it. First issue: I was pressured and misled into buying personal training I didn't need. Once I signed, the trainer couldn't even work with my schedule. No flexibility, no accountability -- just take the money and move on. Second: clear favoritism by staff. Certain people were allowed to play music out loud, break rules, and do whatever they wanted -- but when others did the same thing, suddenly it was a problem. That inconsistency creates a bad environment fast. Third: amenities constantly unavailable. Even years ago, when it was still XSport Fitness, the pool would be randomly closed. Add in parking issues -- paying for parking on certain days on top of a membership -- and it just felt like nickel-and-diming members. The biggest issue, though, was the front desk culture. Unprofessional, dismissive, and uncomfortable energy. There were maybe one or two decent staff members, but overall it felt like complaints were brushed off and members were made to feel like they were the problem for speaking up. I left, moved to California, and honestly thought about coming back to this gym when I returned -- only to find it shut down entirely. That didn't surprise me. When a business ignores its community and runs a place into the ground, this is usually how it ends. It's bittersweet. I'm sad the neighborhood lost a gym, because the community deserves recreational spaces. But I'm not surprised this one didn't survive. Poor management, poor treatment of members, and bad business decisions eventually catch up. I genuinely hope a better gym takes that space -- one that respects the Bronx community and actually runs the place the right way.

They can meet you as early as 5am or as late as....whenever! Perfect spot for anyone wanting to improve their physique, recover from injuries or just plain improve your overall health ;) The gym is actually located in a medical office building within walking distance from the Metro North Station, so I actually took the train there after work (probably a 3 minute walk), but there is also a parking lot and plenty of metered parking (all free after 7pm) nearby. They give a free fitness assessment and one free training session just to give you an idea of their expertise :) Plus, there is a diner upstairs in the building, so you could probably grab a bite to eat after the workout. I love this place and would recommend their trainers to anyone! I'd strongly recommend my personal trainer there, Joseph Hunt, his knowledge on strength training and weight loss is awesome! Hunt helped me to tone up the extra 10 pounds I had gained over the summer and also corrected some painful back issues I had....mostly due to laziness and inactivity,lol.

You will always feel that you are part of a team and the motivation is constantly there to go longer, and harder despite what type of day you are having. The pros: Plenty of parking, small atmosphere, never have to worry about overcrowding, it is very clean so you don't have to worry about gross sweaty gym equipment, everyone is friendly, and you never have to feel subconscious about the way you look. Every time you workout you will get something different, and each workout will be an intense experience, leaving little room for boredom. The cons: Limited windows, so you may get tired of staring at walls while you workout and the locker room only has one available shower.
