Best Gym near Yonkers, New-york

My experience was amazing. Steven at the front desk was nice, informative, and provided great customer service! The equipment is up-to-date and unlike other gyms, it is spread out to give you room to work out efficiently.

Honestly, there are plenty of better gyms than this particular location. The manager Joshua is honestly very unprofessional, from his strange comments to and about women. To his short tempered and rude comments to customers when they aren't interested in having the fitness assessment. Very expensive gym with better potential if management was changed.

Place is for beginners . Coming from xtreme fitness of westchester i can say this gym is Not bodybuilder friendly. I see myself lasting a few months here. Nice and clean, but lacking alot of machines. Again NOT body builder friendly. Beginner level. And the whole not having parking is a a bit of an issue for me.

Decent-okay gym, staff need to be more active with members not racking and putting their weights back in place, lack of more pullies and not enough back machines. Wish they add more machines and keep up with the dust of the machines, each time I go I feel like I eat dust from the machines.

I think it is not hygienic that customers are allowed to walk around the gym without a shirt on. This should not be allowed. As a paying customer that has to share the workout benches & workout machines that someone else used with no shirt on, or sat on, is disgusting. There should be signs throughout the gym stating that customers MUST WEAR A SHIRT!!!! I feel very uncomfortable working out seeing other male customers with no shirts on

This review is for the transitional men's program located upstairs. I lived there for three months before leaving. The building is extremely outdated from the 1800's, there are lots of electrical and plumbing issues, every time it rains, it floods the basement. The rooms are very overpriced, $500 for a crappy room. But there are no options in Westchester county. In addition, the caseworker Linda kept stealing from the tenant's rooms when they weren't there. Overall, a horrible and disappointing experience.

Had a great time at the YMCA in Yonkers,NY for Paint & Sip program Artemis Cloud is an awesome, friendly instructor who loves the arts!!!

My daughter goes there I kinda like it however it’s always a problem when comes to payment. Your payment is due a week in advance not the week your on which to my brain it’s very confuse how Am I going to pay for service when I haven’t received it. However Arthur tries to explain but sometimes I feel he gets confused with his own explanations. I now feel to stop this headache for me I need to pay on a monthly basis not weekly nor week in advance I would know my month is paid and I don’t owe when the last week comes up on that week pay following month in full. Hopefully it works and they can stop saying I owe them 🤜🏽

For the first time in my 20 years of living in Yonkers, I went to the Y MCA. I entered in search of lifeguard training. I was pleasantly surprised to tour the facility and interact with extremely friendly and accommodating staff. This location has it all. A computer, a printer, a game room, a weight room, and a basketball court are all available. I enrolled my son in the program, and he attends three times per week. It is spotless. My son also attends a seminar about college and anything else that young kids are interested in on Friday. It's the ideal setting for our children to stay out of trouble. I'm glad I came across this wonderful place. reina

The programs are wonderful, and some of the employees are wonderful, however, I digress. As other reviews indicate, the stench is repulsive! When it's not the dreadful scent of smoke, weed, or e-cigarette vape, its the dank smell of bleach and the body odor of athletes. I know the athletes are impressive and skillful, but please take a shower, or at least put some deodorant on! The building is very old, and I would take caution going into the "handball court." The "walls" of the "handball court" are a joke, because the walls' paint peels off! Finally, let me advise new members about this YMCA's feature that will make or break your experience; the receptionist! For those who are members at "Y," you know whom I'm talking about. It is of course the bald, and near-sighted receptionist whom always has a smirk on their face. This person always talks to people in a condescending tone, and is very unprofessional. Even if this YMCA resides in an economically poor location, does not give this person the right to treat others as such.

I had a free day pass and I did not expect the gym area to be so small. There isn’t much space to do your own thing. I got there around 8 when they open and it got packed pretty quickly. They did have another area behind doors that had only machines mainly for upper body some for lower body and core. Maybe for someone that just wants to do a simple workout for beginners or someone that just wants a simple nice little workout done I guess it’s fine but for bodybuilders or anyone else you can find a better place with better and more equipment. The only really nice part were the bathrooms and that’s about it.

the gym's main perk is its location and convenience to folks who live nearby. The Gym is small but it's also rarely full of people. One of my main gripes of the Gym is that you can't bring a +1 along. I can understand maybe not everyday but allow it once a week or month would be nice. They also need to do more with air circulation because those fans on the ceiling might as well be decorations for how little they do.

Gym is awesome, you don’t have people posing on mirrors or holding up machines. It’s close to come and the price is decent. The only thing we dislike is that it does get hot and smelly in there during the summer, but it’s not terrible. I hope it never gets packed.

Clean. Descent equipment. Not crowded even in afternoon rush. Nice locker room areas. This is a locally owned gym, so you’re not going to get 30 color-coded treadmills in a row. But it gets the job done and the higher price ensures a nice gym experience with serious gym people. Nice stafg

Hard to put into words. The people that go there, the members does it for me. If you are familiar with the sitcom "Cheers" - the members there are that kind of friendly, supportive and fun. The place is a little worn around the edges. But they keep the place super clean. I never have to scramble to get on any exercise equipment. It's certainly a non pretentious hidden gem that was recommended to me by a fellow first responder in the middle of covid. That says a lot. And they have great discounts if you are in the medical field or police of fire. Also the only place where they have a steam room and sauna. And Veronica makes the best shakes there. Oh and if you have kids they have a great Gymnastics program in the same building.

This gym is a disgrace the locker room is always disgusting one bathroom is out of order the machines are brand new and they already out of order like i dnt understand this is most convenient for me but its so nasty staff should be cleaning the locker room every couple hours

This place is literally flooding! I am currently getting rained on at the gym. There are leaks everywhere, equipment is getting wet and ruined and this has to be a safety hazard! They think buckets are a resolution and they are not! This is unacceptable and should get shut down! I have photos for proof. I keep complaining and nothing has been done. Low income neighborhood’s are deserving of better.

First visit today & I am disgusted. The men’s locker room is DISGUSTING. It smells like a 3 month old litter box. Idk how it could possibly smell like cat pee in a gym but it does. Sink Counters are DRENCHED and yellowing. Soap in 1 soap dispenser with 3 sinks. Dirty toilet paper with FECES ON THE FLOOR. IS THIS A JOKE?! None of the members put any weights back and hold 4 different sets of weights so the dumb bell racks are pretty much empty with the exception of 50-75lbs. Groups working out, people legit giving personal training on the floor. (Not the fitness trainer, this location literally doesn’t have a fitness trainer.) Not one member cleans the equipment & not once did I see a staff member enter the bathrooms to clean. I am disgusted. I will be at this location for 1 month and will never return. Save yourself the headache and go to a gym that’s slightly more expensive. This is the bottom of the bottom of the bottom. I would give 1 star but the young lady at the front desk was an absolute gem. The gym itself 1 of 5 stars.

Planet fitness is a great gym to be a part of. I’ve meet a lot of good friends at planet fitness. They have good equipment and most of the staff is very friendly

Very convenient and it’s never overcrowded there is always equipment available to use.

I'd give it a -2 if possible the gym equipment, and people attending the gym and staff are ok but I don't know if it's management or housekeeping or probably both, more than likely mostly management because the bathroom is the dirtiest and most smelly disgusting place on earth equivalent to a sanitation public bathroom. These pictures show the horrific disgusting showers they smell like garbage the third stall has still water by the drain as you can see in the pictures. The showers all of them have mold and mildew if you look the soap dispenser is broken I went to take a shower and there was a used bar of soap stuck inside the dispenser. As for the first stall the dispenser is completely broken off, the second stall it's missing the top piece and soap. I was too afraid to venture in and wash in another stall but the second one. I brought my own body wash. The curtains are moldy and you definitely don't want the curtain to accidentally touch your body it's skeevie. The walls inside are moldy and have old splashed dry soap all over them and the soap dish has remnants of caked up soap in them. You can see the urinals and discolored urine on the floors on the toilet both the urinal and toilet. The sinks are disgusting splashed water every just in to sitting on the sink. It smells like mildew stinky and filthy on there it's like they say "hey they're men they didn't care how it smells when they wash" .... Need flash we do if this is where my dues are going man on outta here I've only encountered two other gyms in NYC like this and I left had review as well. These places don't care about it's members of they did the place to clean up would be clean and be sanitary to actually use without fear of staph infection. If management cared they get the housekeeping better supplies and the showers would get fixed including the drain that doesn't drain the water and it sits still by the stall. All in all the rating for the gym is 3 they could use better equipment and dumbbells selection. The staff 5+ The atmosphere is ok people are ummm gym people, like the ac only works in the front of the facility and not by the equipment. Feels like you're breathing in hot air when you're doing cardio and lifting in general. The circulation is POOR. Very!!! Housekeeping is-2 can't be all their fault because they can only do what is given and it's clear they aren't given anything because the broken pieces in the bathroom and moldy walls and curtains wouldn't be their fault. The drains just don't work. Sorry this was such a long winded post but I've been meaning to write this review all week and have been swamped with work, but after today's shower I had to make sure it was done. In any case you'll like the gym but just don't try to wash here. The onus falls on the owner and management they aren't addressing no issues like in the gym at all. They should just sell it or fire themselves. Give someone a chance to run it and maybe address the issues. Just went back this morning 8/23 open the locker guess what I see?? Bugs ....yep roaches in the locker. That's it !! I'm done I will be looking for another gym this one has jumped the shark. They clearly don't care here and it's beyond dirty. DISGUSTING!!!

I begin by expressing my dissatisfaction, and the frustration of seeing how a GYM one day was one of the best falling to pieces, even though they updated some machines, they are without maintenance, the bathrooms are a total disaster, I used to be a member for more than three years and I had stopped and I recently re-enrolled a week ago and I had to quit because the conditions of those bathrooms were filthy, molds and dirty water on the floors and toilets. I'm not even going to tell you it's necessary to take care of that as soon as possible and the person responsible for that dirt is the manager.

All the money we pay each month and machines take forever to get repaired, the stair machine has been broken for a MONTH now. Maybe it's better I train in the sewers with master splinter 🐀 and my shell brothers 🐢 stay healthy, the foot clan is no joke 🥷🏽

Gym has made a huge improvement from when I was there 7 years ago. The increased a lot of weight racks and machines. However, the volume of members has also increased, which makes it still nearly as difficult to get on the machines you are trying to use. There seems to be an overabundance of cardio machines compared to weight machines. Other then that, it is a nice clean, well run place, and definitely worth the money at the end of the day.

This gym is somewhat crowded during the time that I have attended but the amount of people is not bothersome at all. The machines are set up in a way that people use them and keep it moving. I enjoy coming to this location!

I recently celebrated my 2-year-old's birthday at U.S.C. Gymnastics, and the experience was nothing short of amazing. From the booking process to the event itself, everything was super easy and seamless. Deena and her staff were fantastic, making sure every detail was taken care of from A to Z. I would highly recommend U.S.C. Gymnastics to anyone looking to host their child's birthday party!

The new Uptown sports complex ..huge space, same great coaches, new batting cages coming soon January 2019....Gymnastics and after school up and running!!

My experience was not positive. The coach mocked my six year old three times in one session, although it was only his second lesson. This was after I expressed to him a few days prior that my child needs encouragement because he is hard on himself. When I addressed this with a manager who claimed to be the "owner, " I was met with opposition. Completely unprofessional staff. This is not a nurturing environment parents! Your children deserve better!

USC I would say is good overall for student who are capable. However I frowned upon this business due to not being able to accommodate special needs. At spotlight gymnastics at least they helped with special needs. Due to COVID the facility is able to allow you watch on a screen which is better than most programs. However This program does not accommodate special needs at all. My daughter who is 4 tried it out for the first time at this location. When going she had a rough time. Due to staff not knowing what to do or just attempting to speak to me as a mom, they did not know at first she was special needs. She had one counselor and then they switched her counselor again which cause her to have a hard time with transitions. Most special needs it is important for them to have extracurricular activities if I'm going pay almost $600 at least help out. They offered no refund they only want to do mommy and me for special needs which isn't good because it doesn't cater to all ages. ANY FACITILITY OR PROGRAM THAT DISCRIMINATES OR DOESNT ACCODMODATE SPECIAL NEEDS should not be glorified. Every child deserves a chance.

Very good for my twin granddaughters, teaches them gymnastics and some basic exercises. Teachers are very good in working with them. Believe me i know it can be challenging to get twins to concentrate at four years old. Thank you so much USC Gymnastics.

Complete disappointment. The gym machines are old and worn down. It's nearly impossible to find a single weight resistance machine that works well, and the seats aren't adjustable. The bar tools are often missing. The only reason I haven't canceled my membership is the sauna room, but it's been closed for a week already, and the staff has no idea when it will be back in service. When I tried to contact the branch manager, I was told she works from 9 am to 6 pm, but the person on the floor told me a month ago that they were working on replacing the broken machines, and nothing has changed. In fact, more machines break every time I visit the club. It feels like they don't care about maintaining the club at all – they don't even change the batteries for the wall clocks or set the correct time. I'm considering going back to Blink. Their machines were all upgraded and well-maintained. It's worth the membership fees and more time-efficient for me.

Everyone here needs to be fired. I have never seen a more poorly maintained gym. Doors are hanging off the lockers and have been for years. The water bottle filling station NEVER works because no one can be bothered to change a filter. The place is filthy. The showers are covered in grime and mildew. The sauna smells nasty. I come back here every month or so thinking that maybe they got a new manager and things would be better, but it never is. So I keep driving to a different, better-run location that is farther from my home.

Best gym in Westchester. Very convenient location, near to the Bronx also. Spacious , clean. Very Friendly staff. Activities. Love it. Highly recommended.

Great gym! LA Fitness has everything I need to stay in shape. The equipment is well-maintained, and the facilities are always clean. I really enjoy the variety of group classes they offer, especially spinning and yoga. The staff is super friendly and always ready to help. Definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and professional place to work out!

*** 12/21/24 update—- it’s INSANE how they comment on the “positive” reviews but do not even acknowledge any constructive feedback given. These 5 star views are clearly paid or incentivized. my note to everyone considering this gym— filter by 1 star reviews and go from there. Management doesn’t address any concerns. I would leave negative stars if I could I started coming to this gym about a year ago, I can confidently say it’s not worth the price you pay. Luckily I have gym pass and in the past, active and fit, so I can go to whatever gym I please, this one just happens to be very convenient for me. That being said, I’ve been to many LA fitnesses and City Sports Clubs, and this one in Yonkers is unfortunately falls far behind the others. I can say about 60% of the gym goers have ZERO gym etiquette. They lack basic common knowledge to put their weights away and clean their equipment. And it’s the same bunch of people who do it each and every time. The worst is when they come in groups. The LA fitness in the Bronx has better clientele than this location. That says a lot about how you’d expect this gym to be. None of the dumbbells are in order, many are just scattered throughout the gym, sometimes in the Zumba class room, etc, because once again, the people that come here have ZERO basic gym etiquette. It’s so bad that the employees have to use a shopping cart to go around the gym to pick up the weights left behind and return them to the rack. This gym has ONE set of 15lb dumbbells, they are always missing or hidden throughout the gym. Same goes for bars, handles, and ropes. I started brining my own handles because the ones they have are nowhere to be found. And if you do find them, it’s gross , old and really should be in the trash. There’s not enough bars for the benches, which gets frustrating during peak hours. The facility itself is aging, the gym is only 10 years old I believe but has no significant improvements since they’ve opened. The men’s bathroom has about 18 sinks, of those, only half of those work, and the ones that don’t work are the only ones with soap. Paper towels are also hard to find at times. The men’s locker room has many lockers without a door. There’s a handful of equipment that are “ scheduled for service“ and has been for months. Some don’t have signs, so you only realize when you start the workout. Unlike other LA fitnesses, this one does not have racquetball courts. There used to be a basketball court, but now that is turned into a private training room. Which to me wasn’t a good place to put it considering how underutilized the upstairs portion of the gym is. The employees at this gym are very nice, and have always been helpful. Although, one time I came 30 min prior to closing and they allow me to enter. I just needed 20 min of cardio after coming from work. This is not specified in my the contract/waiver I signed, unless I’m not looking in the right place. The cafe is great. the two girls make the drinks very well. The others i don’t feel the same, drinks are never made the same and they seem annoyed when you ask them for a drink. Overall, if you’re considering this gym, it’s a great location, and OK facility. But please note the clientele at this gym really make it an unpleasant experience. Compared to the other gyms in the area, this one is huge and lots of equipment. But blink fitness has a better clientele than this specific location. To management at this gym, please enforce some rules. NYSC does it so I’m not sure why you can’t. Do better. I don’t expect you to acknowledge this review. 🙃 it’s also interesting that they respond to all the “good” reviews and don’t say a single thing to the people who leave constructive feedback.
