Best Gyms with Cardio Machines near Toms-river, New-jersey

I’ve been going here on and off for 15 years, I love this place so much. No gym comes close in my opinion. However when I came back, I was shocked by their new hours. Working very odd hours, their old schedule was very accommodating not only to me, but others who also don’t have the typical 9-5. If they go back to their late hours, I’ll change this to a 5 star very fast. I just wanted to be a voice for others who may also feel this way.

been going here for 2/3 years & whoever the NEW women is at the front desk was super rude. on TUESDAY 1/14 @ about 11am . all i did was ask for a new card because i lost my old one. attitude sucks & her tone. didn't listen when i told her my name the first time then when she asked me again what it was, she was nasty and rude. even when it was down to the spelling. definitely will be looking for a new gym. i am a manager & i would never have someone like that in the front desk checking people in with that attitude, your at work & there to do your job . equipment is old , you ask yourself why am i even paying this much for service like this. ridiculous.

What's great about this pool is that it has a chair lift, which is useful when rehabbing from a stroke. Hands-on physical therapy utilizes 1 lane of the pool to work with people for aqua therapy. However, the pool itself smells moldy to me, the chlorine hits you in the face as soon as you walk in, and it's hot, humid, and sweaty in there. There are times when it's very busy. The bathrooms are a nightmare for handicapped people with wheelchairs.

What sets tr fitness aside from every other gym is the family oriented feeling you get when you walk in there. Shelly and her husband have created something every other gym out there try to do but come up short. The place is always immaculate. The staff are always as courteous and polite and ready to assist or help with anything possible. On a 1 to 5 stars tr fitness should be the one to get 6 stars cause again they stand out from every other gym. And they have the cleanest pool over ever seen in my life! If asked I would say tr fitness or don't go to the gym!

This place is a local legend, great staff and a history that none of the other gyms in the area can compete with. That being said, equipment is almost as old as I am which is frightening and as of late simply not being maintained. If you’re going to demand a premium fee, deliver a premium product. Still love them but they desperately need to reinvest in the gym.

Toms River's Crunch Fitness gym exceeds expectations. My daily morning visits are always pleasant due to the friendly staff, clean location, and varied equipment selection. I highly endorse checking it out if you're unfamiliar with this gym! 💪

Can’t understand the negative reviews here. My experience was great: a clean gym including bathrooms and no broken equipment.I joined, I liked it so much, and the new location is gonna be amazing.

THINK BEFORE JOINING THIS GYM!! Over 3,900 views and counting!! Be careful how you treat people First let me start by saying, I have been working out for multiple years consistently now. Been to many gyms. I was a member of this gym for about 4 years. The gym is my peace and I like to come get a great workout after a hard day of work, like many of you reading this. I have met some cool people at this gym who I plan to be friends with for a while but I feel that may be the only positive takeaway unfortunately. Now, let me tell you that this is THE MOST toxic, unprofessional and hostile gym environment I have ever been apart of. I have witnessed many issues with the front desk staff and members. Issues to the point where the front desk associates have almost gotten physical with members. MULTIPLE times. Complaints get swept under the rug and go unnoticed. Don’t even bother. The general manager just sits in his office and seems to have no idea what the gym needs or what goes on in the gym. The owners are non-existent and don’t do anything to properly manage the gym. I have also heard other staff talking about members’ information to other members. Don’t expect complete confidentiality when joining this gym. Your information may be exposed to random people. Clients are not respected by employees AT ALL. They have “no judgments” written on the front desk in big lettering but do nothing but the opposite. It’s a negative environment. Also, the turnover with managers and employees is astronomical and it’s not hard to understand why. Also, just some things to note. They never have the air conditioner on because it seems they are too cheap to run it. When they have it on, it barely works and they compensate by having fans that blow around hot air. In the summer, it easily gets hot enough for folks to potentially have a heat stroke and that’s a health hazard if I have ever heard one. Corporate is made aware of issues and just doesn’t seem to care. They basically tell you what you want to hear. Also, just to note, don’t even bother coming to the gym in the afternoon or anytime before 7. You’ll see kids talking in groups in front of weights and they will not care if you are trying to workout. Their conversation is more important than your workout apparently. Not to mention, they all have their little cliques like it’s high school. Grown people come here to workout and do not want to be bothered by teenagers standing around flexing and talking. Let’s not forget about the classes on the turf either. They are scheduled at the busiest time of the gym and there is no separate room for the classes. They blast music throughout the gym. Good luck focusing on your workout with them screaming and blasting music you can easily hear through your headphones. Just to add more notes; the equipment is subpar. It is the cheapest, bottom of the barrel stuff on the market. Don’t expect any updates or new equipment as I was a member for years and absolutely nothing was changed. The cleanliness is the same. Mildew on the walls under the blow dryers for example. Simple to clean yet it doesn’t get done. Not too mention they don’t even supply paper towels to wipe your face after a workout. They have gotten better at fixing equipment when it breaks but still could use some improvement. I’ve been to many gyms in my days and this is easily the most toxic, unprofessional and hostile gym I’ve been apart of. Gym culture is just not what it used to be. All of these reviews speaking out against management and a hostile environment could not be more true. There are SO many better options in the area. Take a look at the other reviews, management and staff clearly have a problem treating people with decency and respect. If you are serious about lifting and don’t want to lift in a total negative environment, I HIGHLY advise considering other options than this gym.

i’ve been coming to Crunch since the day they opened. And ever since I started coming here I’ve gotten stronger I’ve gotten more fit and re fell in love with my body. The staff has been wonderful has treat me like family. They cheer me up when i’m having a bad day and hype me up when im having a great day. There’s nothing like being a Crunch Fitness member. Looking back on it I’m glad that the very first Gym I started going to was Crunch Fitness and for the rest of my life, I have no intention on being anywhere else besides Crunch! The new General Manager Mike Rottino went out his way to make sure I had everything i need to properly perform my exercises. He also recommended some exercises that has help me grow even more as an athlete and as gym lover. With the leadership and skill that Mike has I know that Crunch Toms River will be moving forward and getting better every day!

Gym does not compare to NYC sister gyms. Seems to be poorly managed. There was no air conditioning for the past two weeks during a very busy period, prior to and past Memorial Day weekend. The upright bikes are not properly calibrated. The same settings on different bikes yield very different results. Their desk staff is less than responsive. Often they don’t have towels and when they do, they will only provide one. Even when asked several times, very nicely, to use two towels to protect my arms from the elements on the upright bar handles, they outright refused. The mats for stretching are worn and need replacing. On a positive note they have space and equipment.

This was my favorite planet fitness by far. I stayed in Lavalette for the week and was happy there was this gym nearby. The staff was friendly and it wasn't too busy. The equipment I needed was always available. The facility was kept neat and clean.

Great gym. Ten times better than the one on 37. Newer equipment and so far, the crowd meter is actually accurate. I live down the road from the 37 one and come here because I don't like when the crowd meter lies to me with the one on 37.

It is clean and the equipment works. You are left along while working out, no pressure. Only drawback lately is people sitting on equipment using their phones.

Large new gym. The equipment is brand new so no problems of something being broken. Even though it can be quite busy there is so much equipment to use it's never been a problem. 5 hydro massage chairs are the best post work out . 4 tanning booths. Overall a great gym for the price!!! Highly recommend

I was in town on vacation and got a quick workout in here. Nice location with great equipment + friendly staff.

An excellent facility with a staff that is very attentive. Restrooms are immaculate the tanning facility, as well as the massage chair and hydrotherapy lounge is a great way to decompress after your work out. All of this at an incredible monthly fee.

I'm so disappointed in this location. The management sucks. I never had a issue with my cards. All if a sudden there Missing a number. Not my fault if someone entered it in wrong.. now a late fee you wont take the late fee off. Unbelievable!!!! You deserve no stars..

Very clean. Tanning beds are quality beds and all bulbs work . Bathrooms are kept exceptionally clean at least mens anyway. All in all a pleasant experience. Would have given 5 stars if staffers were more friendly...

Planet fitness loves to advertise like they are no membership fee, $15 a month pay as you go, ONLY. But keep in mind they also bill you $52.00 a month after you start saying it's an "annual fee"....so just since they purposely are vague and not clear with pricing ON PURPOSE, just letting people know that don't be surprised after you think you're just going to be paying $15 a month every month, that you get billed $52.00 the next time they take money out. And the "manager" at the gym is very rude and condescending, I would use a choice word if this weren't a public forum, when simply asking about why the fee popped up in the first place. And I know that tone. She probably deals with these calls all the time knowing damn well most people are likely tricked by this but she gets to just say "it's in the agreement you signed".....I paid in person and signed an electronic pad, there was no "agreement" I looked at. And if that's very much purposely hidden, the person helping you sign up should legally and morally have to tell you what's on the "agreement" you're signing, because obviously they don't give you a print out of what you sign, therefore a customer isn't aware, and that's how you SCAM people.

The staff is very friendly. The facilities are often cleaned by the staff. Most of the clients wipe down the machines after using them. I f a piece of equipment is broken it is quickly repaired. I am getting good value for the inexpensive monthly fee.I always enjoy coming to Planet Fitness to do my daily workouts.
