Best Gym near Pennington, New-jersey

I injured my back (herniated disks and spinal stenosis) playing tennis. After some support with chiropractic to get out of pain and stable, I learned that it is very important to strengthen my back so that my adjustments will hold. I set up weekly appointments with Rich who has been a significant help in my recovery efforts. He understands how the body works and is a life long learner. We are now focusing on strengthening my back and core muscles so that I can get back on the tennis court.

Rich Hadley at PACE performance and recovery is great. He saved my friend who was in searing back pain. I have been seeing him three hours a week and after each hour session I bounce out of there as if I were 20 years younger. I went there for performance improvement and injury prevention and I am getting that and much more.

After being out of the gym for some time (RIP PEAC) and recovery from a second knee surgery I knew I needed something different. When I met Richie and his family on Pennington day, I knew Pace was what I was looking for. His program isn't just about burpee's and box-jumps, but to me more importantly recovery both physically and mentally. As a certified PRO, Richie is highly educated and understood my injuries and what exercises would be best for me in my recovery. I look forward to continue to work with Richie to meet my goals and have a little fun along the way!

Pace has a very positive atmosphere and is dedicated to supporting their clients in meeting their goals.

Highest integrity, honest. I'm really impressed. They deserve a 5 stars review!

Amazing yoga shop that is NOT a chain!! This is important because they tend to be more interested in making money then creating a community of people enjoying practicing yoga! The teachers are incredible and the atmosphere is one that can’t be beat! Classes are offered at convinient times and they even offer a class for kids on the weekends that my daughter LOVES! The owners are amazing people and will always accommodate the best they can! What an amazing yoga family to be apart of!

I’d been wanting to start yoga for awhile and visited a few studios in the area. None of them really had the vibe I was looking for until I found Anew Life. I could tell just by looking in the shop windows that this was the studio for me. I signed up for the $25 for 30 days special which allowed me to try a variety of different classes and instructors and they are all amazing. The instructors are caring, supportive, non-judgemental, accommodating, and community-oriented. Everyone is truly welcomed here. I am genuinely so grateful to be a part of the Anew Life family 🙏🏻💕

I was looking to getting into a routine yoga practice and found Anew Life Yoga and I'm so happy I did. I love the space and the instructors are wonderful and supportive. Very pleased with the variety of classes they offer and a schedule that suits my practice!

I've tried restorative, yin, and flow yoga with several different teachers and all were fabulous! The studio has a welcoming, authentic vibe and all the teachers and staff take their yoga seriously - but not themselves. The classes are nourishing, challenging, and fun and the space is gorgeous too. Highly recommended!

Love this studio! Great variety of classes, instructors are super friendly and knowledgable. Mike and his whole team make it a very welcoming environment- can't say enough good things!

Great place for athletes to train!!! Full gym and indoor tunnels with pitching machine. The combined baseball/softball knowledge is incredible!!! Staff works with athletes of all ages….. Oh and they happen to all be pretty awesome!!!! You won’t regret checking this place out.

Great gym to train at! Whether you’re doing powerlifting, body building or generalized overall fitness, this gym has all the equipment you need to get a great workout in. Great for personal training, solo training or group training! The one side of the gym, “the yard” has four full length tunnels for baseball training. If you’re an athlete into baseball, this is the place for you.

Best gym I've trained at. Amazing owner/ staff who are always welcoming and helpful. Great atmosphere to train in

Great owners/staff and wonderful vibe! They saved my potentially lethargic Holiday ha🙏🏽🫡

Great gym, people, and membership costs. I used this gym for ~2 years while at TCNJ and have nothing but good things to say about it. Best gym in the area for price, speciality equipment, people, and hours. And, most importantly, unlike other gyms, when it came time to cancel my membership (I was moving out of the area), the process was easy and without hidden fees or delays.

My daughter loves NLSA!!! Amazing coaching staff! We are so happy to be a part of the NLSA family!

Great program. My son really enjoys training and playing with them. They are a competitive program but player development and safety is paramount.

Andy brought me into weight training 20+ years ago when he was a fresh college graduate. I've been trained and seen how hard he has worked for years. It's about time he set off on his own. I was at the new pennington location last week, and it has everything you could possibly need. Great place from a great guy

An excellent place for personalized fitness training. Nice, clean, quiet, and well maintained facility. Andy is really easy to work with. The prices are reasonable. Highly recommend.

Awesome little spot. Was tempted not to tell anyone because I want Andy to myself. Get in while you still can

Shari is amazing. I am a nurse and I believe she knows as much or more about body mechanics than most physical therapist. I am 76 years old and still working, and competing in ballroom dance with Shari's help. I take my grandchildren on trips and tree excursion courses, zip lining, white water rafting, etc. While I have maintained strength and stamina to do such things with Shari's help, co-ordination has never been my strong suit :) Last year I tore my meniscus on a fall. Following surgery I looked to Shari to get me back to dancing. My surgeon was very impressed with my recovery. I highly recommend Shari, not only for general strength and stamina training, but also for her expertise with injuries. And for the topping on the cake, she is a "nyce" person with a great sense of humor. Thank you Shari.

Shari is an extraordinary Pilates master. She is very knowledgeable about body mechanics. After performing the exercises and eating healthily, I have felt stronger more energized than I have in years. I thank God that I found her, and I pray that she stays in business for many years to come. Shari is the best Pilates instructor, hands down!

Shari is a wonderful and kind Pilates instructor. She sees the individual in everybody, and adjusts her instruction to suit your specific needs. She has an extraordinary knack of understanding your body's needs better than even you do. She can be compassionate and take her students through post-surgery rehab, or she can laugh and push your body to its limits. Her studio has the highest quality of equipment in it (from Balanced Body), and she keeps it in the best condition. I have been so lucky to be her student for 9 years (and the only reason I've stopped is because we moved to a different state). She is good at challenging her advanced students, and is able to nurture the novice students in a way that makes us all feel comfortable. She has improved my body's form in a way that nobody else ever has. The majority of Shari's students sigh in relief when they find her, and then stay forever. She is simply that good.

One remarkable thing about Shari is her ability to work meaningfully and successfully with people at every level of fitness & wellness. She's sought out by serious athletes at their physical peak, and she's equally effective working with people who are addressing injury, physical limitation due to illness, or are just out-of-shape. I think there are some people, from training & experience but also by some inexplicable extra sense, who just understand bodies on a deeper level. These people are rare, and Shari is certainly one. I have recommended her to a young athlete looking for focused core training, a couple of folks who didn't think they could work out while recovering from surgery or an injury, and number of older people looking for a way to work out that will change their health and their bodies without hurting themselves. It is not the cheapest way to work out, but please don't confuse what you get from working with Shari with what you might get from a pilates class at your gym. All that to say: I really can't thank Shari enough for her work with me, and if you're thinking this might be something you want to explore, I couldn't recommend her more highly.

Shari is the best Pilates instructor I could possibly imagine. I had tried Pilates before her and didn't think much of it, but Shari has 25 years teaching experience and really understands the whole body and how to customize training to what you need. I went to her after knee surgery because I was having trouble rehabbing my knee without aggravating some arthritis, and she has helped me strengthen in ways that don't cause any problems for me. She has the knowledge of a physical therapist and can help with all kinds of physical issues, but she can also kill you (in a good way) as a personal trainer—IF that's what you want. At 43, even as a prior serious athlete, I am stronger and more toned than ever. She is also fun to be around while she's working with you. The physical therapist for my knee had suggested Pilates to me but said, "Pilates is only as good as your instructor." Shari is THE BEST, so if you want to do this, go to her!

Coach Lucas is fantastic. Provides a professional, high level and comfortable environment for his athletes. His knowledge and training is great for all levels whether you're new to the gym or an experienced athlete.

Coach Lucas evaluated and trained both of my daughters. They had a blast during the session while gaining strength and confidence. I love that he gives each of them different things to work on specific to their bodies needs.

Exceptional guidance and motivation from all the trainers here. Everything is clean and everyone is very welcoming.

Friendly and professional, highly recommend

I’ve been working with Kevin for almost a year now and I’ve gotten so much stronger. He plans the workouts to fit your specific needs and goals and goes at a pace that is attainable and sustainable. He is also so great at working with your schedule (coming from a full-time working mom of a toddler). It’s been so great and I feel really accomplished each week after our workouts. I highly recommend Kevin as a personal trainer.

This is a gym for everyone, so long as you like personal and professional attention to achieve your specific goals. It’s a great place to start a whole life change, and Kevin is your ideal partner for any new fitness journey. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

I've been training with Kevin since early January. March Forth has improved my core which has helped with my lower back issues, balance and overall body structure .It has exceeded my expectations and is well worth the work.

Dan is the quintessential trainer. His extensive knowledge of muscle groups and their functioning, together with his understanding of my body needs, has helped me immensely. In addition, his engaging personality really makes it fun to work out that is followed by much needed stretching.

I have been seeing Dan for assisted stretching at Gym Geek for over a year now. What a difference it has made! I love to go on adventure travel. Unfortunately between the hiking and backpacking I developed a lot of knee pain and it left me sidelined. Since going to Dan my knee pain has drastically reduced and I have been able to go back to living an active lifestyle. This is definitely worth it!

GymGeek Training saved me from going under the knife for surgery! I have very bad feet and have developed bunions over the years from standing many hours on my feet wearing non forgiving designer dress shoes. Working with Daniel to identify the root underlying cause of my issues have my feet feeling like I can run middle school track again!!! That is merely the beginning, GymGeek Training has also uncovered pinched nerve issues I had in my neck and entire left side of my upper body. Various Streching techniques have released the trapped nerves on the left side of my upper body And I am now regaining full strength and bodily movement again. We are now developing my core and leg strength to increase my overall golf game. Dont get fooled by everyday So Called Trainers,…dig into the bag of GymGeek Training and allow the full power x potential of Corrective Excersize and Stretching work for you too!

Daniel is the best, I can’t recommend him highly enough. I hired him to work with my father on balance and strength and it’s made a huge difference for him. Highly recommended!
