Best Gyms with Free Weights near Edison, New-jersey

This Planet Fitness location is my go-to gym whenever my main location is closed. Though it's not my primary spot, I appreciate that it's a 24-hour location. The gym is clean, spacious, and has a variety of equipment for all fitness levels. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is welcoming. Overall, it's a great spot to stay on track with my fitness goals. Highly recommend!

Join this gym about 1.5 months ago. I like it. Super clean, machines all work. There’s always paper towels and liquid to clean off the machines. Person behind desk at 3.45am is pretty friendly. Love the fact that’s it’s a 24 hour location. Always wake up looking forward to my work out, everyone minds their own business. A truly judgement free zone. Keep up the good housekeeping, it means a lot. Happy customer. Will for sure recommend to friends and family.

Read the one stars and agree with some of it, a lot of the patrons are pigs & rude as you know what. Absolutely zero gym etiquette. However, there’s no way a place this busy is this clean without the staff doing their job. This is a tiny PF and way over crowded & a majority of the men anyway are slobs in the lockers. I guarantee their wives would slap them silly if they left messes like they do here. It’s tiny but every piece of equipment I used was well maintained even though most are in constant use. I would guess the fire marshal would have a fit at peak hours but it is what it is. My only complaint about the facility is the Total Body had a third (10) of the bulbs burned out. Four came on with about 3 minutes left but I’m guessing none of the employees use this feature or the bulbs would be changed. Overall not a bad PF for what it is.

Been going to Planet Fitness for several years. Tons of locations. Convenient when traveling for business meetings or in general. Has all the essential machines to be healthy and live well.

Filthy. Showers are not cleaned regularly. Went to shower one day, saw a mess. Came back a couple days later and that exact mess was still there. They can't spend 10 minutes a day wiping down the showers? Locker rooms are always full of trash on the floor and in lockers.

Because of its strategic location and client base, the support staff has kind of turned relaxed/arrogant and staff interest is of least priority to them. For example 1 overcrowded weight rooms in the morning and evening. Pesonal trainers have reserved almost 35% of the space and can use the non reserved space as deemed appropriate. 2. exclusive access to some instruments and rooms by personal trainers 3. curtailed hours - on weekends its only from 7 am 4. JCC - with swim pool and gym being part of JCC, the available days are very less as they have multiple holidays. To rub salt to injury, now YMCA is following them for holidays. I fail to understand why it is closed on 3rd and 4th October when other Ys in the vicinity are open. Final Verdict If given a choice, I will cease going to the Y

Great place and their sauna and steam room is just awesome! The staff here is very helpful and always ready to do beyond. I would specially like to call out the staff- Purnima who has very very patient and kind to resolve any issues. The area of improvement is the timings of this facility which is challenging for folks going to work to NYC. I wish now they come back to pre Covid timings.

The gym is great but the staff isn't. I would like to write this review not because my membership expired today but because the staff talked rudely to my friend. My friend talked to the staff that he forgot his card to scan. My staff started acting rude and said "How could you?" I understand that they probably had a bad day that day but it doesn't mean they start acting rudely to others.

Generally a decent gym. The people are nice, and convenient location. I use the treadmills regularly. Most work - but they have just given up on the TVs (attached to treadmill). The channels on most don't work, and haven't for some time. And basketball court - rarely available for use.

I would recommend avoiding setting up automatic payments with this YMCA or any YMCA. It seems that they may be charging additional fees without notifying customers, and they do not appear to take responsibility for refunding these charges. Additionally, they may reject valid refund requests from customers.

My son has been going here for a couple months and he loves it. The kids coach, Nirvana is very good with kids young and old. All the other coaches I've spoken to have been very nice and down to earth. I've tried other boxing gyms in the area and the coaches were sooo bad with kids or kindness. My son looks forward to boxing weekly! Thanks!

Coach Mike and Gorilla Squad Boxing Academy are amazing! He really cares about the details and gives every student personalized attention, making each lesson unique and tailored to individual needs. He makes sure you learn real boxing, focusing on fundamentals, technique, weight transfer, and proper movements. The gym is welcoming and challenging, with all the necessary equipment, and you learn in a safe environment. Highly recommend!

Great place to learn boxing and workout, coach Mike is a great teacher and gives each student his personal attention and helps you grow in your skills. Highly recommend this gym especially if you're a beginner.

Coach Mike is an incredible trainer and a super good guy. His attention to detail is impeccable. I highly recommend this for anyone of all ages. I attend training with my son and it's been such a great experience!

Love this gym , the coach is very patient and teaches you step by step , he’s a great person , he’s a great trainer and such a friendly person overall. The gym itself is great and the community is filled with great boxers to help you and be friendly , best boxing gym ever highly recommend for people who want to get in boxing

I would give this place 5 stars, however it appears loyal customers mean little to this facility. I have been going to this studio regularly for 3 months now. I arrived 30 seconds past the 5 minute late window for my 9:15 class, mind you a class that was barely half filled, and told that I wasn’t allowed to enter. I am beyond disappointed with this place, because in times when it shouldn’t matter (icy roads from a day prior snowstorm), it does. I love my instructors here and I hate to post this but a nearly $200 membership fee should mean more to these places. Exceptions should be made.

Get ready, get to OTF, and leave the rest to the coaches! This fitness center is all about pushing you to your limits and knocking out excuses. I've been a member for a year and a half now, and I’ve been consistent ever since—I only wish I had joined earlier! The coaches are simply incredible. Honestly, I can’t pick a favorite because they’re all fantastic in their own ways. Whether you come in with a clear goal or not, they’ll make sure you stay on track (and yes, they might kick your arse if needed, but always with care and encouragement!). If you're looking for a gym that delivers results, provides excellent motivation, and builds a great sense of community, I can’t recommend OTF enough.

The best 60-minute workout in the area! The staff at the front desk are professional and courteous, and the coaches inspire you to do your best in class. Studio Manager Anthony has created a welcoming community at the studio to welcome all members. Great job, everyone! Definitely worth every penny.

I’m the type of person that needs a structured workout, with clear goals and expectations. Orange Theory provides that. I love that no class is ever the same routine and you are always competing against yourself. This class keeps me motivated to stay active and healthy. Also, there ar many different days and times classes are offered so it fits into my schedule with having kids and a full time job. I’m glad I joined!

Love Orange theory! For the past month they’ve made me feel more energetic and healthier and make me enjoy exercising! Thank you coach Anthony, coach Lori, coach Joe who I’ve been in most classes with. Thanks to adriana, Kurt for explaining everything and how it works!
