CrossFit Kryptonite has been a big part of my life since my mom opened it in 2010. Back then,…read moreCrossFit was still in its early days and hadn't yet gained the momentum is has now. Since then, however, I've had the pleasure of watching my mom build this gym -- its identity and its community -- into something much larger and more important than just "a building where people do fitness." Today, CrossFit Kryptonite is unlike all the other CrossFit gyms I've visited, dropped in at and even worked at. My mom has built it and turned it into a truly unique, supportive place with many expert coaches on staff who share her passion for changing lives. I've personally witnessed many transformative stories -- people of all ages and from various walks of life who have lost weight, improved their health, gotten stronger, gained self-esteem, and found lasting friendship. As my mom's daughter, I've also been in the unique position to witness all the hard work my mom does behind the scenes. Beyond the day-to-day administrative work, she is always looking for new ways to improve her knowledge as a coach and enhance the membership experience. Examples include: taking additional fitness certifications; planning fun, social events outside the gym; planning events to raise money for local or charitable causes; partnering with other community venues like the LT Michael P. Murphy Navy SEAL Museum to participate in annual fitness events; partnering with other local gyms for members to enjoy friendly competition; navigating uncertainties like the COVID-19 pandemic; organizing official CrossFit events like the annual Open. The list goes on. On a more personal note, being part of the CrossFit Kryptonite community since its infancy motivated me to pursue health and fitness more seriously in my own life. I prioritized living more healthily in how I move and in what I eat. I was also inspired to become a coach myself so that I could help others on their own fitness journeys. I received my Level 1, and even after moving outside of Long Island for a few years, the first thing I did (besides finding a place to live) was find a CrossFit gym to train and coach at. To sum it all up, CrossFit Kryptonite is truly a labor of love, and its specialness is incomparable, palpable, and contagious. If you're reading this and are wondering whether "CrossFit" is right for you, I assure you it's so much more than whatever preconceived reputation it has gained in popular culture. Whether you're a teenager or a senior citizen, whether you're a seasoned athlete or have physical limitations, I guarantee there is no better place to get healthy -- and surprise yourself in the process -- than CrossFit Kryptonite.

Aside from the lack of upgraded equipment, most of the afternoon staff are rude teenagers who never seem to greet me as I walk in, they don't even acknowledge me at all. That doesn't create a very welcoming environment, and it sucks that this is the only planet fitness even remotely in this area.

I can't review the actual instruction quality because to be fair, each experience is personal and it is really a reflection of your own ability to participate and your expectations. But I have to say as a small older building my first time was in the summer and the air conditioner was turned on or up at the beginning of the session not leaving enough time to acclimate the room before we started and there was a gym odor in the warm room most of the time during the class so I felt as if it was not particularly conducive to a calming yoga experience where sound and smell are an important part. My second visit in the fall the room was cool and comfortable but it was a more intense combo class so attendees did work up a sweat and the room became humid and again, it was not a pleasant environment. Maybe they should have turned on a fan to stir the air. This is my pet peeve that gyms or exercise facilities should smell as though it is cleaned regularly which includes washing the equipment regularly and wiping down surfaces used by customers. I do bring my own matt and blocks and bands where I can rather than complain but weights are needed in some of their classes and you have no choice to use them. All in all, they have been there for quite some time because they are convenient and familiar and I might return for those reasons. Last word, the instructors were nice and supportive.
