Best Gym near Hillsborough-township, New-jersey

Newell Strength is a family to all those who join. The coaches take time to review each exercise beforehand and make sure you are performing each exercise correctly as you go. I have been a member for the last few years and I feel in better shape then I have since my 20s. Kyle is always trying to make you be a better person of yourself both physically and mentally. He always takes time to talk to you if he sees you in the gym. Kyle is always looking to give back to the community and those in need.

Newell Strength has been a game changer. The coaching, community, support, and care has exceeded every other gym I have joined. I have learned so much.. and far improved my health, strength, and mindset. Highly recommended.

Newell Strength is not a gym- it’s a family, a tribe. I have been a member on and off since 2007, but have been consistently going for the past two and half years. The staff is excellent and the workouts are exceptional. I am consistently challenged to stretch my boundaries and not only meet my goals, but exceed them. This is done in a supportive, welcoming environment. I am in better shape at 60 then I have been in the past thirty years. Going to the gym is best part of my day

The name Newell Strength can make women think it’s a place for men mainly but this couldn’t be further from the truth! Strengthening my muscles has made such a positive impact on my overall health. Recently I’ve been dealing with neck pain and migraines, and Alyssa has been so accommodating & helpful in my attempts to continue working out. They all truly care so much! The staff and the members are such a welcoming group! I’ve been a member since 2019, and I’m not going anywhere!

Newell Strength has changed my life and the lives of many others. It is not a burden to go to this gym but a blessing. The coaches care and will change you. Strength, better cardio performance and just a different way of life. Working out under the direction of Kyle and his coaches are the best hours of my days.

Absolutely amazing courses! If you want to learn how to best defend yourself in any scenario while getting a great workout in, then this is the program for you! Each course/class/workshop provides you with a great amount of knowledge regarding different ways to fight, defend, and protect, leaving you more confident in your skills each time. I highly recommend joining this program!

Very informative and fun classes with a great set of people. Instructors help to simulate worst case scenario type situations, what to do and how to handle them while incorporating fitness/cardio. 5/5 star would recommend!!

If you are looking to learn self defense and get in shape while doing it. Allegiance is where you should be. Their perspective and knowledge is second to none.

Fun class and great instructors!!

The Den a Private Gym has been an exceptional partner for us, Trinidad Physical Therapy. Our clients love the exclusive atmosphere. Highly recommend.

I absolutely love this place. The staff are friendly, and the environment is amazing. It's very welcoming, and I love the members. I would highly recommend coming to this locate. My son goes to daycare here, and he loves his teacher and friends.

Beware!!! They will charge your credit card even after you cancel your membership. Don’t go here!!!! They bully the kids and tell the kids to deal with bullying themselves. This place is NOT GOOD!! There’s a good reason why they only have a 3 star rating!!

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Please do not send your children here. As the YMCA does not follow their own beliefs and practices which they openly state on their website. Their daycare center is a joke with the exception of a few staff members. However my daughters were enrolled here and I’ve had to call licensing and the department of child family services twice for negligence. My oldest daughter had received a black and blue from another child with six staff members watching and yet no one could explain to me how the incident occurred nor gave me an incident form. Another occasion, upon pick up my daughter was only in her underwear AGAIN no one could explain to me why this was. My newborn infant was attacked by an older 16 month old because they keep 6 weeks to 18 months old in one room with staff that don’t watch the children at all. And this situation occurred only with me being going for less than thirty minutes. They often mislead for their own benefit and I will warn as many people as possible. Please DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILDREN HERE!!!!! As far as summer camp goes, well, you’re paying for your child to stay out in the heat all day! There is no cold water accessible and they have five years old to six year olds outside in the blazing sun all day. My children suffer from asthma and allergies and even then they refused to send the children inside. My children only attended for three days before I pulled them out. & the director Colieen could care less. It should be illegal what they are doing. Even ALL OF THE STAFF MEMBERS COMPLAIN yet no one will do anything. If you have younger children PLEASE PLEASE TAKE THEM OUT !!! I will NEVER send any of my children back here again. Edit: It's funny how they tried to response to my review but can't respond to my emails or concerns in person. I have picture of each assault incident that happened with both my daughters and email correspondence that were left with no respond. Because I don't want my daughters faces out there I have not posted the images but whoever wants to see the images and emails please reach out to me. I will warn everyone I know and my social media platforms to NEVER support this place!!! Your children are NOT SAFE HERE!!!!

Was fine until I tried to cancel membership. Sent email but forgot attachment and they never replied that the cancellation form was not attached… will not provide me with a refund.

The facility is good, housekeeping in the locker room and bathroom stalls is okay. There are 6 swimming lanes, 1 family pool, 1 spa, and 1 sauna. The lifeguards and coaches are very kind, experienced and professional. We don’t visit this place on weekends, but many lanes are always occupied by lessons, coaches will ask you to get out of the lane. Family swim is only available after 6PM when it sudden gets so packed that you won’t be able to move around in the pool.

Only one person that works here cleans or refills paper towels and cleaner. The facility got new machines less than a year ago and they are already falling apart, the benches are missing the knobs to adjust the height, clips missing from the cable machines, tumble weeds of dirt, dust and hair blows across the floor. And a portajohn is cleaner than the locker rooms. Employees at the front desk just stand around on their phone doing nothing. I submitted a request on their online portal requesting a response 2 weeks ago and nothing. When Shelia is out absolutely nothing gets done. These photos are not just a bad day. Every single day the place looks like this. DO BETTER Planet Fitness Update**** Since after multiple conversations with management in the location, a request for a response on your online platform with no response. Glad to see the Google review will get someone’s attention. All of us who are die hard 5am gym goers all we are asking for a facility that is cleaned and stocked with necessary items. I attempted to wipe down a machine but could not due to empty bottles that had been empty all week since Shelia has not been in to fill them. So I gathered and took to the manager at the front desk, asking how we are to wipe down things with no cleaner? Response I received was well I’m the only one working. I guess working for him means standing around doing nothing while hunched over on your cell for 2 hours. So what other avenue do you suggest I should take to ask for the low expectations of sweeping, filling cleaner and paper towel dispensers?

my guy, Miguel has the best customer service I’ve ever seen in my entire life at planet fitness When I got there, he was cleaning every shower and making sure everything was spotless and smelled good If he does not get a promotion today, then no one should

Clean gym. Recently updated with new equipment( at least newer to me since it has been a year and the machines didn’t have counters in them) . Staff is friendly. No complaints here. 😊

I have been coming to this location Planet Fitness for sometime the lockers and showers were always dirty and a funny stink smell. I'm so glad they finally hire a cleaner. The cleaner Lala keeps the lockers and showers clean. Speaking for the ladies room we appreciate her .

Incredible staff and very clean gym. However some equipment tend to be broken sometimes and they don't replace parts as often. The paper towel dispensers for cleaning the equipment are rarely stocked and cleaning sprays are hard to find.

I joined Retro Fitness today in Hillsborough. Taylor, the young man who gave me a tour & signed me up, was absolutely wonderful! He was very thorough & answered all of my questions. The first thing I noticed was how clean this facility is. That’s very important to me. Also, lots of equipment & classes along with paring with my insurance was a “slam dunk”! I also had the pleasure of being assisted by Kayla who was so helpful & kind explaining to me how to work certain equipment & what would work best for me & my goals. Love your staff!

I really enjoy going to the Hillsborough Retro vs other gyms in the same price point in the immediate area(s). Shout out to Kayla and the management staff for always keeping the place exceptionally clean as well as always having the best attitude with all customers. (I actually thought Kayla was the owner she takes such good care of the place). The staff makes the whole environment feel friendly and welcoming. Kudos to the team, it definitely doesn't go unappreciated.

Brandon is the man!! Awesome experience! He made this place feel like the neighborhood gym that you want to be at! Great equipment with free weights, barbells & racks, machines, etc. they had everything you need for a good lift! Love the protein shake bar.

First day as a guest. Had moved a bench into a room to hit abs. A worker came in and told me to mov it. I asked if I could finish my set and he kindly agreed. Middle of set some High calorie(big) woman with grey and purple hair started screaming at me causing a scene making sarcastic and disrespectful remarks. Even though I had talked to her co worker 2 min prior. I would not advise you go here instead try NEXT fitness which is 2 minutes away. I hope retro can fix the cancer in their workplace.

Madi has helped me lose 40 pounds, build muscle, confidence and has supported me non stop along the way.

I recently was visiting my family in Hillsborough and visited the Next Fit club there. This place effortlessly marries the sleek, contemporary design of a modern gym with the timeless charm of old-style iron plates, and the result is nothing short of extraordinary. The equipment is second to none, featuring the latest in fitness technology, from treadmills to cutting-edge weight machines. However, what truly sets this gym apart is its collection of classic iron plates, dumbbells, and barbells.The clinking of iron plates is inspiring and encouraging. Even if you forget your headphones, the music is upbeat and helps you push weights. My only remark is that the place could use some more natural light.

Loved this gym during the week I was here. Not too big but it has everything and they make it fit well. The equipment does feel a little crammed but not too much either and it’s not super new but not too old either. The upper level is full of cardio equipment and besides the main equipment room they also have two more rooms for abs and a dance-style studio. It feels very communal and most importantly it’s not too crowded (though we are in covid times so I can’t speak for normal times). I would recommend checking it out.

Giving one star so maybe management sees… y’all gotta stop blasting shiet screamo music so loud I can’t hear my music through my noise cancelling headphones. Ok fine you have bad music taste but why are you making it everyone else’s problem. And pls stay open later on the weekends

It’s only been 30 days since I started going to Next Fit and it has been a better experience than the other gyms I’ve been to. It’s clean, organized, and very welcoming. My personal trainer Laura has been amazing at helping me become more confident with using gym equipment and reach my personal goals. She even gives great recipes and examples for nutrition. The front desk staff have been amazing at re-racking weights, keeping the gym clean, and always having a positive attitude when greeting guests. The classes are a lot of fun and motivating. Even if you are a beginner or injured, you can customize it to your level. They have different membership packages suited for your gym goals and they are all reasonably priced. Definitely would recommend this gym over any other chain gym.

I loved this gym. Was there for 2-3 years and only left because of re locating. If you like small/community like gym, clean, affordable, with the best equipment and nice people then this is the place for you. I originally wanted to join and do classes but instead I got a temporary trainer and then decided that the Classes looked full in the space they had and just enjoyed all the equipment instead. With the space they have they use it well. I don't like gigantic gyms- gets over whelming. I loved going to this nextfit community. Highly recommend.

I have been wanting to visit the Salty Moon since I had my second child a few months ago. I recently was able to get away and had a fabulous massage with Karina! The Spa is beautiful and peaceful from the moment you walk in. Highly recommend giving one of the services a try. I can’t wait to go back.

Best kept secret is what I'm going to start calling The Salty Moon. As women we always put ourselves last before we take care of ourselves. I can't tell you how happy I was and relaxed leaving from my 1st trial session. The owner even called me to make sure I was happy with the service and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I was very intimated believe it or not just signing up. This was a big step for me and I am so glad that I did this for myself. Highly recommend Gianna because she is so sweet and made me feel so comfortable. We laughed and I look forward to more sessions. I'm still smiling. 😁

Karina has a magical touch and customizes the massage as she feels for areas that need special attention during your session. This really helps get rid of and heal through issues. I did multiple pregnancy massages with her and it helped my back pain immensely. Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful time at the salty moon spa!! I got a prenatal massage with Karina and then relaxed in the salt room after while I waited for my mother in law to get her massage. It was so relaxing!!! Karina was amazing, so nice and attentive and applied the perfect amount of pressure. The salt room was cool! I’ve never seen anything like it! You could choose a reclining seat or hammock to lay in, the feeling of the salt rocks beneath my feet also relaxed me and just the peace and quiet with the added atmosphere was such a perfect place to unwind. I will absolutely be back!!

The SaltyMoon is amazing. My daughters and I wanted to have a spa experience with my granddaughter before she got married,. Even though Tbe Salty Moon is closed on Sunday, Alaina arranged to open it and bring in staff to accommodate us. We all had facials, massages and experienced a dry float session. It was perfect and just what we needed to relax and bond. There are so many services available and I can’t wait to go back! Do yourself a favor and visit The Salty Mioon.

I absolutely love the experience at the Max Challenge Hillsborough! The group classes are energetic and engaging, and working with partners has really helped me stay motivated. It’s great to build friendships with others in the class, creating a supportive community where everyone is pushing towards their goals. Most importantly, the guidance provided has been instrumental in my journey to lose weight and lead a healthier lifestyle. The coaches truly care about your progress and make sure you’re on the right path both physically and mentally. Highly recommend!

I found an excellent place to pursue my fitness goals! Their nutrition program and workouts, which cater to all levels from beginners to pros, make it easy to get started. The supportive community keeps me motivated to go every day, and the environment is perfect for working out. The trainers are fantastic—friendly, approachable, and always ready to help.

I recently joined the Hillsborough Max challenge and loving it. The trainers are awesome. Love the variety of the classes. Jenn is great and so supportive. The gym is very clean and spacious. So happy I was able to find in my town.

What an AMAZING gym- such a positive environment with a supportive staff and members! The owner Jenn is incredible. Being new to the gym she made a point to stay by my side in the first few classes and show me steps. Highly recommend!

I love The Max Challenge! The nutrition program is easy to follow and execute and has proven results. The workouts are challenging but designed for every level. You are motivated and encouraged every step of the way. Best decision I could have made for myself!

Absolutely amazing gym. Between the atmosphere, trainers, and the people that you are in a class with, this place is awesome. I've been going to different gyms most my life, but this is the only place that has ever gotten me in the best shape of my life and not to mention that I'm 42 years old. You can truly see the dedication, passion and energy that Hillary and Mike bring to this place. If your looking to take your training to another level this place is by far, hands down, the best place to start working out.

Yesterday I had the privilege of taking a Meals and Mindful presentation provided by the owner of Impact Training, Hillarie Scannelli. As a breast cancer survivor, I have spent the last 9 years educating myself on changes I can make in my life style. I have seen an integrative physician at Memorial Sloan Kettering and work personally with a nutritionist I met through the Cancer Care Community. I thought I was pretty educated, but what I found from yesterdays presentation is that we can all learn something new. This talk did an excellent job of combining nutrition and mindfulness, 2 extremely important aspects of both our physical and mental wellness. I was pleased to hear everything that Hillarie spoke of supported the information I had gathered. Hillarie spoke so passionately and transparently I am already motivated to take what I learned in a quick 2 hours and begin to to put them to use. I highly recommend anyone looking to either reset for 2021 or make major changes to look into contacting Hillarie to help you achieve your goals.

The trainers are awesome great place to train and all of the people here are all here to get stronger. I’ve never seen a weight room/training facility so good. Also this place made me jacked up and also my triceps are huge

Been taking my son there for about a year. Christian has been great with him as his trainer. The entire staff is fantastic, too.

This is where we do Rock Steady boxing for parkinson's. Great program great place

Hands down the best PT studio in the area. A diamond in the rough. Corinne and her staff are very thorough and meticulous. They are not concerned with metrics or a corporate model like most outpatient PT studios. This place is patient centric and privately owned. They have the most dedicated staff and PT students who care. Highly recommend!

On my first visit to Perfect Formation, I walked in using a cane. Serious hip and knee problems had developed over the years, and I was wondering if my condition was permanent. After a 90-minute evaluation and a few weeks of treatment, I had ditched the cane and was learning to correct my walk to keep injuries at bay. No small thing, that turnaround, and done so naturally that it's sometimes easy to miss the depth of knowledge and the extent of skills required to bring about such healing. One of the more striking things I learned quickly is how well the therapists listen and how well they create individualized treatment for each patient, pacing the therapy according to each patient's needs. The atmosphere Dr. Corrine Sicola creates in her studio is one of determined treatment and light-hearted joy. The place is quite often full of people of all ages who commiserate with each other and their therapists about their various aches, pains, injuries---even sharing stories of their life journeys---while working their way to feeling better---and quite often laughing about it. It is a place where you learn to relax in a judgement-free zone, trust therapists to do their work, and be fearless when feeling pain, if any, in the healing process. Doctor Corrine and her staff clearly have what it takes to help people move better through their daily lives---and the "stim" treatment is great! :-) If you need physical therapy, I recommend that you go to Perfect Formation!

1-Star Review: Unprofessional and Disappointing Experience at "Perfect Reformation" Physical Therapy I had a very poor experience at "Perfect Reformation" physical therapy and would not recommend this clinic to anyone. From the very beginning, the lack of organization and communication was unacceptable. For my initial evaluation, I arrived early to fill out paperwork as requested, but then had to wait almost 45 minutes before being seen. This is a clear indication of poor time management on their part. The real issue, however, arose during my treatment sessions. I specifically made an appointment to see Dr. Corrine, but she had a student provide the entire treatment without any supervision. I was not informed of this beforehand, which is a major breach of trust and transparency. As a patient, I have a right to know who will be providing my care and to consent to any students or assistants involved. The doctor claiming she discussed the plan with the student is simply not good enough. Beyond that, the clinic itself was very loud, making it difficult to relax during the treatment. I also observed the staff discussing other patients' issues openly, which is a clear violation of patient confidentiality. When I followed up to request my treatment plan, the doctor ignored my request entirely. This lack of responsiveness and poor customer service is unacceptable. The final straw was the rude and unprofessional behavior of the staff, including the students who did not even greet me. It felt like they were more concerned with making money than providing quality care. Overall, this was an incredibly disappointing experience. I expected a professional, patient-centered clinic, but "Perfect Reformation" physical therapy fell far short of that mark. I would not recommend this place to anyone seeking quality physical therapy care.

PERfect FORmation is hands down the best physical therapy office in the Hillsborough area. Dr. Corinne and her staff always prioritize the needs of every patient and never dismiss any concerns that they may have. The environment is relaxed and inviting, encouraging individuals to work towards achieving their physical goals with constant guidance from trained professionals. PERfect FORMation also differs from other offices because treatment includes manual work alongside an exercise plan that is customized for each patient depending on their needs. Dr. Corinne is extremely knowledgable and is constantly coming up with new innovative ways to help patients return to a pain free lifestyle. Dr. Corinne is also very accommodating and always has availability to see patients when they need her the most. Most importantly, the staff prioritizes every individual, meaning that every concern and question is heard and acknowledged. Therefore, if you need physical therapy for any sort of injury PERfect FORMation is the way to go.

Simply the best! I am a musician and came in with hand numbness which is scary because that’s my livelihood. They have helped so much. High quality care and they don’t just throw you on a treadmill and hope for the best. Ever session contains hands on deep tissue massage that actually works. They will also address other pain than what you came in for if needed. I can say my posture is better and I feel better! I used to see a specialist in NYC who specialized in musicians and I can say that Perfect Formation is every bit as good and it’s in NJ!!

I was searching for a trainer who would understand my limitations after multiple surgeries but still push me to reach what I knew I was capable of. Ryan has exceeded my expectations in every way. He has taught me the importance of meeting my body where it is, challenging it to go as far as it can, but also recognizing when not to push too far. What I love most is that Ryan creates a no-judgment zone where you feel completely comfortable being yourself. Whether you're bringing your kids or even your dogs to your workout, he makes it all work seamlessly. Every session is not only productive but also filled with laughter and positivity, making the hard work enjoyable. After years of feeling like my body was working against me, I finally feel like it’s my ally again—all thanks to Ryan. I’m incredibly grateful for his guidance and support in helping me crush goals, rebuild confidence, and enjoy the process. Highly recommend!

I can't say enough GREAT things about Ryan. He truly is the complete package in what a trainer should be. Ryan's approach to nutrition and fitness is personalized to meet your individual needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach. His workouts are so fun, even for someone like me who doesn't necessarily love exercise. He knows when to push and when to back off but always keeps you on track for your goals. I now look forward to working out because I have Ryan cheering me on the whole time.

Ryan is a 10 star trainer and coach. There truly are not enough words or star ratings to describe how hard this man works to help his clients’ reach their goals. Important note: THEIR goals. Ryan meets his clients where they are and takes them to where THEY want to be. I started working with him in 2019 because I decided I wanted to be a powerlifter. Since then, Ryan has coached me through two jobs, two degrees, and two first place finishes at powerlifting meets. He has helped me thrive through discomfort, fear, and self-doubt, and helped me discover my own power both in the gym and outside of it. We’ve worked through weight gain, knee problems, adrenal fatigue, and all the ups and downs of life, and Ryan has neither given up or let me give up. He simply adjusts and helps me do the same. He’s given up weekends and his own personal time, slotted me in at weird hours to make sure I could always train when I needed it, and flexed my training plans at a moment’s notice when my plabs changed. I’ve been able to make huge behavioral changes in my life, take pride in myself as an athlete, and be confident in my ability to handle any challenge because of Ryan’s coaching. I know that’s a high bar to set for a coach, but that’s what Ryan gives his clients, steadfastly, every single time.

When I started training with Ryan I had been working out consistently for a while. But my work outs became stagnant. I am a busy mom of 6(blended family) I birthed 3, while actively working and running my own business. Working out for me is for mental medicine (energy). The high(endorphins) when you complete a work out is inexplainable. The best part of hiring Ryan is I could go get pushed hard! And not have to think. He would motivate me through my work outs. Even when I started off complaining. In the process I never expected to get educated on so many things. It was like a light bulb kept going off during our sessions. And in the process I am now in the best shape of my life. He is extremely educated and professional! I have had a few trainers off and on. My firsts trainer was for 2 months I was 21 years old. I wanted to get in shape for a vacation. Then I stoped. I lost a lot is muscle. I’m now 41 years old and take my health more serious. It’s not just about looking good. Ryan is hands down the BEST! If you are going to invest in anything invest in your health it is PRICELESS! I believe taking care of your health and working out should be everyone’s number one priority and hobby. And if you don’t have the motivation, RYAN is the guy to get you there. You may think you can’t or your body can’t but trust me he will show you that you CAN!!! After birthing my 3 sons I gave up. I had fluctuated up and down. The first set of photos I shared are after being consistent and listening to Ryan and actually eating more food in balance. Healthy carbs, proteins, and fats and veggies. I have never looked or felt better. The last set of pics show my fluctuations. Thank you again Ryan can’t say it enough. You have helped me achieve the best version of me! There is no turning back. Health is WEALTH! Do it for YOU! One day at a time! It’s is never too late and you are never too old! Call RYAN today!

You need a trainer to find out how to move you forward in progress but most importantly teach you along the way? Ryan is your guy. He breaks things down so that you’re not only learning from him but are able to create a consistent habit pattern which makes diets and workouts successful. His gym has the personal touch that most people need to get that extra pep in the step.
