Best Gym near Manasquan, New-jersey

After being away from TAC - Manasquan for many months due to illness, I returned this evening....I did so with some trepidation after reading the poor reviews!! I was completely shocked at what the club has become!! It is gorgeous, clean and newly painted! The ladies locker room was brightly lit and clean. The work out areas, again were brightly lit, freshly painted and clean! New and better machines and equipment were everywhere! The front desk staff, namely Kelly and Jenna , were courteous, helpful and accommodating! Thank you for all the changes, keep up the good work!!!

Long time member, I’ve watched AC go through many changes and challenges. Whatever you’re doing now, keep it up! The trainers , AC team members are top notch, the energy is great and the current cleaning company (over the past 2 months or so) are doing a great job, we’ve noticed an incredible difference. Hoping to see some facility updates in the near future.

Zero customer support. Seriously ZERO. I have been trying to contact someone, anyone regarding joining your gym. I have emailed and called and have never received any response. I have looked at the reviews and wonder why anyone would join here. I have given up. I was definitely ready to join but not anymore

A tragic disappointment after having been a member at the Red Bank location. This place might have at one time been luxury, but it isn’t now. The building is in poor external repair and the parking lot needs repaving. While the indoor pool is larger with more lanes than the Red Bank facility it is the only advantage to the Manasquan location. There are more facility options than Red Bank, like pickle ball, tennis Paddel courts, but some of these require added monthly charges. For the size of the structure and two floors the cardio and free-weight areas are small and crowded. And the equipment is old, damaged and not very clean. The men’s locker room is in barely passable condition with dirty, yes slimy, shower stalls, moldy stall curtains, non-functional swim suit driers and is in desperate need of a full top-down make over - but it’s got a TV!! The steam room and sauna in the men’s locker room both need a scrubbing and a re-do. The Red Bank location men’s locker room had a continually circulating attendant cleaning up constantly. At Manasquan with a far larger locker room, the one person on duty is just picking up towels. Well better than 50% of the lockers are taken up by long-term rentals and those members sometimes hint, by their behavior, that anyone without a fixed locker is in their way. They’ve been there so long they’ve got decorated lockers! This place long ago jumped the shark. I totally regret having signed both myself and my husband up for memberships. I’m sure we’re stuck till we can get to month by month. Don’t waste hard earned money on this facility.

It’s just dirty and falling apart. It sucks to see it get worse every month. They made a big deal about a locker room cleaning and refresh, then they started backing away from the promises. The lower tile grout in the showers was basically all mold, they did not replace the grout, they put new grout over top the moldy grout, and used lots of caulk, it looks really cheap and they didn’t even do it over the whole shower. So half has original grout and the other half has new grout just rubbed on top. It looks unfinished. The mold has returned anyway and the caulk is falling off the tiles. They did get the steam room working consistently, but it smells horrible most of the time, like moldy sweat. Some members bring essential oils to help with the smell and give that steam room feeling, the club is too cheap to provide these things. The hot tub was also broken again today too. Only 96 degrees but it didn’t matter bc it wouldn’t turn on anyway. Went into the sauna but it was jammed pack bc the hot tub was broken and the steam room smelt too bad to stay inside so everyone crammed in the sauna. Just another day at the Atlantic club. The previous owner refused to make any investments into the club and it became aged, now Genesis seems to just want to milk their new cash cow rather than make any investments of their own. It’s no longer worth the money and potential new members should walk away.

This gym is barely serviceable. Outside of the dedicated job that is done by the gentleman that opens the gym during the week, the remaining staff is subpar. Third instance in the last month that it doesn’t open on time. The bathrooms are NEVER cleaned. Same dead bugs and hair on the floors in the bathrooms and showers for weeks. The equipment layout makes no sense. There’s not enough free weights to go around when it is busy. Better off going to a different gym if you’re in the area. UPDATE: second day in a row the gym in Manasquan did not open on time. Truly a poorly managed gym.

Gym is nice but as a person who likes to hit the gym in the moring then to shower at the gym n go straight to work .. walking into the men's shower and seeing Mold all over the shower floors and walls even the shower curtain has mold . It's very disgusting and a Health hazard.. thoes showers are so dirty looks like it's been months since they was clean even the caulking on the floor haves mold.. do better guys!

Excellent gym and team in Wall. Large enough to handle busy times, with all the essential gear you need. Anthony the manager has also gone out of his way to help me with my membership situation since I am in and out of the US a lot. Very much appreciate these guys.

I have been a member for years. The employees are amazing but your equipment needs a major upgrade. Your tv’s have 1 channel working at best. Please fix this because I love to use the ellipticals and treadmills

Excellent gym. I’ve had nothing but pleasant encounters with the manager, Anthony, and the rest of the team at the front desk. The location is always spotless, weights are quickly re-racked if ever misplaced and there’s literally no wait time for the machines, since the gym is spacious enough, with an ample amount of equipment for everyone to use. Keep up the great work guys.

Dropped in for a lunch class! Great facilities! Spacious, clean, and a variety of equipment. Instructor was friendly and the other members seemed pleasant too! The class was more laid back and go at your own pace (loosely structured). This is good if you already know how to workout but if you’re new might recommend a more personal training first.

I started coming here in June because a friend of mine teaches cycle and I absolutely fell in love with this gym! I then got the summer membership and am now in the 10 week challenge which I’m sad is coming to an end next week. LAF has the best and kindest staff and also has so many classes/times for everyone! This is the first gym I’ve been to that doesn’t make going to workout feel like a chore!!!

LAF offers a spacious, clean environment with tons of equipment, knowledgeable trainers, and a wide variety of classes that make your workouts both effective and enjoyable! They even play great music to keep you motivated and energized while you train! And above all, it delivers real results. What more could you ask for?!

LAF is the best! They have so many different kinds of classes. Hot yoga, HIIT, and cycling are just some of my favorites! Any time I tried a new class, the coaches (and other members) have been so kind and helpful! It’s the best way to start (and sometimes end!) my day!!

I love LAF! Best. Gym. Ever. There is so much for everyone! There also is no excuse not to get to class because there are classes from 5-9am, noon, and like 4-7pm! There’s spin, yoga, barre, boot camps, strength classes, boxing, and so much more! Just pick your class, sign up and show up! LAF is my favorite place to be everyday!

Emmy is the best coach EVER! Her knowledge, experience, and passion come through in every single class. I don’t take that lightly though…she has no hesitation in kicking our asses. Every class she programs, I think that’s the hardest thing I have ever done….until the next class. She makes us feel unstoppable!

The best gym I’ve ever been a part of!!! I am 19 and have been an athlete my whole life and System never fails to humble me!! I just started this summer and immediately felt welcomed and encouraged to challenge myself. Emmy and every other coach pushes you past what you think you can do. I am dreading going back to college without these daily workouts!!!

Emmy is next level. I leave her sessions feeling comprehensively and holistically stronger, lengthened, and focused. Results are visible and sentient - in range of motion, performance, and first thing in the morning upon waking. Emmy’s placement of encouragement and correction of mechanics makes me feel like I’m training for the Olympics. She provides options and accommodations as needed, and squashes self doubt. With firm and friendly accountability, she makes me want to show up for myself. Having been through lots of different training methodologies and systems for decades, Syst[EM] Athletics is by far the best, hands down.

Provided great instruction, I’ve never done deadlift cleans before and the coaching through the process gave me the confidence to get them done. The conditioning like always kicked my ass. A great community and support from everyone all around.

This gym is awesome. The culture here is felt the second you walk in. Friends are made, weights are lifted, heart rates are high! 10/10 great work out and even better people

Guys Tyler tool and Mr wells are amazing and the field house is fun

Great place, and staff. Very professional group. I highly recommend Peak Performance .

David makes working out personal and most importantly, FUN! He is entertaining and an expert at helping you with your goals.

I’ve been working out with Dave for a few months, and it has been an awesome experience. He is knowledgeable, professional, and will help you build a tailored workout program for your goals. I’d highly recommend DP to anyone looking for a comfortable environment to train!

DP understands Fitness and allows you to get the best out of yourself. A consummate professional Dave will tailor a program to your needs and help you achieve your fitness goals! I strongly recommend him to anyone looking to get in better shape, improve overall health, reach athletic goals, or just have better quality of life.

My husband and I have been working out with Dave for close to 13 years, 8 years ago our son joined in on the fun. He is extremely flexible and customizes each of our work outs. Thanks Mr. Dave for doing such a great job.

He’s the best trainer in the world! He’s such a great guy and helped me make my varsity soccer team! He has excellent equipment and a great workout place. When it’s nice out, you are also able to workout with him outside. He’s a very nice man and will help you get stronger and in better shape. I highly recommend him! He’s the best!

Jeremy is the best. As a physiologist he is trained to use the latest testing equipment that previously was available only to Olympic athletes. Now the newest technology is available to the general public . Starting with your Body Composition Analysis you will see a statistical analysis of your body strengths and weaknesses. There is a VO2 max test on a treadmill with a heart monitor and a breathing mask that will collect data to be analyzed. I had heart surgery, gone through cardiac rehab, and was hoping to increase my activities and improve fitness. After my data was collected, Jeremy went over the numbers, discussed long term goals, and designed the interval training in the heart rate zones for me to see measurable improvement over the next few months. He also designed training with bands and weights to improve strength in the areas that the data showed muscle weaknesses. Jeremy's skills can benefit anyone who wants to improve athletic performance in sports, or anyone, any age, who wants to improve their overall health and fitness. He is friendly, encouraging, and will listen to your needs, help you plan your goals, and then help you achieve those goals.

Soon after my oncologist gave me the go ahead, I made my first appointment with Jeremy. I very much want to get back to the physical activities I enjoyed prior to my recent cancer diagnosis and treatment. From the initial diagnostic tests to understand where my body is on a physiologic level, Jeremy has put together an exercise plan that will help me safely re-build muscle and utilize oxygen more efficiently by way of a respiratory muscle trainer. Jeremy's command of exercise physiology, ability to communicate the science of nutrition, exercise and how our bodies respond, his positive and encouraging demeanor and followup are sure to help everyone who seeks his services to optimize their health and fitness. The saying "timing is everything" couldn't hold more true for me. With Jeremy's guidance and assistance, I look forward to healthier, stronger days ahead! Thank you so much JD!!

I highly recommend the services and information provided by Atlantic Exercise Physiology. I first met with Jeremy in January for a Body Composition Analysis and Resting Metabolic Rate Test. Jeremy reviewed my results and made recommendations specific to the areas that I needed improvement. After 12 weeks of adjusting my exercise routine along with some diet changes, I saw significant improvement in body composition including increased muscle mass, decreased body fat and increased resting metabolic rate. The graphs and charts that Jeremy provides are easy to understand and a motivating way to track your progress. The services provided are beneficial for any/all levels of health and fitness. You get a wealth of information that a scale or BMI will not tell you.

Atlantic Exercise Physiology will revolutionize the way you think about your health, exercise routine, and overall wellness. I visited Jeremy last week for my VO2 Max test - an assessment that has previously been exclusive to elite and professional athletes, until now with Jeremy's practice. Jeremy walks you through every step of your assessment with the highest level of clarity and professionalism. You'll receive a comprehensive report after your assessment which not only includes your results of the test, but specific areas of your body/health where you can improve. Jeremy is able to explain all of your data in a way that is both easy to understand and easy to act upon. It's so exciting that our community has access to this type of analysis, in an extremely clean space, with state of the art technology. I would recommend to anyone that is looking to level up!

Atlantic Exercise Physiology is phenomenal! Jeremy is so knowledgeable and truly helps you work towards your own personal goals. Each appointment is tailored to exactly what you need and I’m already seeing great progress.

Absolutely, amazing.! The building is so clean and well organized and top of the art. Equipment, everybody is so nice and knowledgeable.. they take 100% 1 on 1 time with you and will help you perform the therapy and movements the way that they should. My physical therapist, Jake is just the tops. And all the other physical therapists are wonderful as well. Also, they give you an at home exercise schedule tips and tricks. Also, the acupuncturist Joe is amazing. I felt a 100% better after leaving after one session. Highly recommend them to anyone and everyone who wants to be pain free, healthy. Happy and enjoy a amazing experience getting well.

Great experience over at coast rehab. Craig has been an excellent pt, and helped me strengthen my ankle a lot going into my season! Craig and the staff have also made it a fun and positive experience for me! Highly recommend to others considering pt here.

I have been going to COAST Rehab in Manasquan for about six months now. I didn't need rehab for an injury. I wanted strength and flexability. I like to play a lot of golf and my distance and accuracy were declining. Luke and his wonderful staff have helped tremendously. My driver distance is up over 20 yards and my scores have come down. During early spring I would also rent out the golf simulator which is in the same building. Everyone who works there has knowledge and skills to help you with whatever your goals are.

If you're an athlete or into playing sports, don't even bother going anywhere else! Coast Rehab is the BEST! My son fractured his scapula and for months we bounced from rehab to rehab - most were designed for the elderly or set up like factory lines. I stumbled upon Coast while shopping in Manasquan. When the owner Luke and his team met my son, they did a long and thoughtful initial evaluation, identified some unseen issues, and then worked to build back his strength with care and caution. He has successfully returned to playing sports full time now, and we truly owe it all to Coast Rehab!

COAST is what physical therapy should be: a judgement free, tailored experience focused on what you're feeling each time you walk in and helping you feel better. Jake was incredible but I'd feel confident endorsing Craig, Luke, Kim or any other employee there. Jake had researched and created routines based on my hobbies allowing me to not only strengthen my weak spots but build confidence I can rely on them when I get back to surfing or climbing. Someone that passionate about his craft is worth spending your time with. Almost worth getting hurt again just to go back... Almost. Thank you COAST staff for the great work you do.

Best gym in the area. Amazing staff, good pricing, family feel atmosphere!
