Best Gyms with Free Weights near New-york, New-york

Amazing experience! If you’re a peloton, this is a must-do while in NYC. The whole process was well-organized, friendly, engaging, and high energy! It’s a core memory for me and my friends on a girls’ trip to the city. Locker rooms are clean and smell nice. They have Dyson hair dryers and other accessories. Shoutout to Juan getting us all ready and hype, Darnell for coordination, and Camila and Alex for being the inspiring coaches they are and making an incredible difference in so many lives! Alex, thank you for being the motivation I needed during one of the most challenging times in my life. You are amazing.

I love visiting the Peloton Studio! Every time I come I leave feeling so proud of myself and in awe of how wonderful the space is. Their locker rooms are so clean and their studio is top notch! Love the instructors and their staff.

Love taking classes at Peloton Studios. The crew and concierge are always lovely, the instructors are phenomenal, the space is kept very clean, and the locker rooms have nice amenities. Cannot wait to book my next in person class here!

I was perfectly satisfied with my Peloton bike and all the classes at home but visiting the studio blew me away! I did yoga and two cycling classes with the Denis Morton who is an amazing instructor, truly gifted! The entire experience, from the moment I walked in the door was first class, the design and decor and the team members, all of whom made me feel well taken care of, and the patrons were all so happy to be there — very good vibes all around! And I definitely want to shout out Camala who was so considerate to me and everyone else who kept asking for help—she exuded kindness and resourcefulness!

I got an email invite from Peloton to attend Jess King’s Pump the Beat ride for Pride 🌈. Being from Texas and not local, I thought it was a great opportunity to get out and meet my favorite Peloton instructor. What an amazing experience! Jess King’s class was challenging yet doable 🚴‍♀️, and her amazing personality and charisma kept my spirits up the entire time 😃. A few tips for those planning to attend: •Make sure to check in 45–60 minutes before the start of the class. If you aren’t checked in 30 minutes before class, your spot will be released. •Dress appropriately—official Peloton Apparel is encouraged! All outfits are reviewed upon entry to the studio. Tops are required for the duration of the class (sports bras are okay). Glitter is not permitted. •Bring your photo ID for health, safety, and to confirm you meet the age requirements. •Have your username and password ready to participate on the Leaderboard. If you forget your login information, you can reset your password. •The locker rooms are fully equipped with keyless lockers, changing and shower facilities. Amenities include complimentary towels, shower products, Dyson hair dryers, and straighteners. •Sweat towels are provided on the bike, and they also provide cycling shoes if you need them. Thank you, Jess, and thank you, Peloton, for an unforgettable experience

short: great gym option at affordable price money-saving tip: wait for the semi-annual Groupon special where the membership is half the regular price if pay for one year long: It's okay. It's in a basement, which I'm not a fan of. It is clean and doesn't stink like Planet Fitness. The usual: crowded after work hours and people using the machines as furniture while texting for long periods of time, and people that seem to love to make sure their sweat is absorbed by the next person. I don't enjoy working out when I go to this location, so I just do a little something and leave before it gets crowded. I recommend this location as an alternative to Planet Fitness. If your budget can do it, Crunch is double the price but has classes and a very great atmosphere to work out in.

Out of the 4 gyms I've been in the Manhattan Area (54th Street, Bryant Park, Grand Central and now Chelsea) I would say at this point, this location is the largest Blink Gym in the city. It was almost the most crowded too, I was afraid I was gonna come across a similar situation to the gym in Corona, Queens with withdrawn, rude patrons hogging gym equipment. Fortunately it didn't come to that, I barely had to wait to use any machines that I wanted to make use of so I got a pretty good workout today. The gym interior is comfortable, the location of the area is nice and the commute there isn't complex, just taking the E train gets me there in 45 minutes. I will come around here again whenever I have another itch to come back to Manhattan.

Please give Nicholas a promotion. This Blink employee goes so above and beyond. He really helped me when my heart started to hurt post workout. And that’s not the only jam he helped me out with. Plus he’s so friendly. Truly makes each visit he’s here a joy.

Blink gyms are dotted around the city and I have been to a few and was going to the Avenue A one for over six months. This location in Chelsea is my favorite. It’s large, has lots of excellent machines, a large area for stretching, many cardio machines and a nice ladies locker room. I have been coming here for over five years. The staff are friendly and professional. Since I have been here the managers have had a high turnover - Lizzandro, Dulcie, Bella, Vince, Joel and now Bo. Except for Bella, I liked all of them. Bo is nice too. Team Blink of Adonis, Chris and Ciara who are there in the mornings are the people I see when I come in. They always have smiles on their faces. Recently Blink filed for bankruptcy and I was alarmed that they may close but was relieved that this was not the case. While the playlist is iffy at times I wish they would play more of rock and disco. Much peppier than rap. One person I miss a lot is Sara who was the cleaner. She was excellent. Often the bathrooms are not clean and run out of necessities.

The staff is nice : ) but they’re not very transparent about the $60 annual maintenance fee that comes even with the monthly plans, AND if you want to cancel they’ll still make you pay for another 2 months with a confusing scheme about pro-rated cancellation depending on when in the month you want to cancel. The equipment is somewhat old and not amazingly well-maintained, especially the ellipticals which are pretty run-down. The machines are pretty densely packed as well, and I don’t see any air purifiers or ventilation for Covid safety, and perhaps as a result most of the place reeks of body odor. I’m sure being in a basement and not having any doors or windows directly outside doesn’t help (also lends itself a sorta creepy dungeon vibe)

I’ve heard good things about this location before and I can now confirm — this is a really nice Equinox club with tasteful decoration and cool little details. I particularly like the large windows on the 2nd floor, the ones at the corner of Orchard Street and Houston Street. Good spot to people watch while stretching or doing your core exercises. Locker room is spacious and clean. Hoping to take a class here at some point to check out the studio space, and to see if the instructors are good, but already an awesome location to add to my rotation.

Very bad experience, not really sure what is supposed to be the appeal of this company. They rely on lies to get you to sign up for a membership, then make it nearly impossible to cancel. When I signed up I was told I would get a free month because of the referral I signed up with, that was a lie. I was told that I would have multi gym access because the locker room was under construction, that was a lie. The equipment is worse than the $10/mo planet fitness I used to go to in michigan and it is inconveniently crowded most of the time. Also, men frequently cruise in the steam room--really gross and unsanitary. They are refusing to cancel my membership now, it's really weird and this place in general seems like a scam. Sometimes things that are more expensive are worse, eh? I recommend staying away from this company and gym and going literally anywhere else.

I’m not sure whose idea it was to close down the Women’s locker room at The Orchard Location for 10 weeks and not tell anyone until a day before. This is a terrible, TERRIBLE inconvenience Equinox has provided and really sucks - and having all access to some clubs isn’t the way to handle the situation. Shame on you Equinox.

Wow, perfect gym to meet all of your fitness and mental goals.

Another member (middle age middle eastern woman) here constantly harasses me, accuses me of stealing her belongings and makes indecent comments about my clothing, and is always staring when I’m just trying to work out. Mind you, I dress like every other woman there. This has been happening since March, and I’ve reported her to management (specifically Anthony and Robert) several times yet there has been no progress on the situation… given I pay so much, the disregard is absolutely insane to me.

I just had an incredible session with William at the lifetime spa, and I can’t recommend him enough! He really listened to my body, focusing on areas of concern and working tension and stress out in ways I hadn’t experienced before. I felt he was fully tuned into what I needed, creating a personalized experience that went beyond just a massage. After the session, he took the time to suggest at-home exercises to help me continue working on those areas. It was a genuinely holistic and thoughtful approach, and I feel so much better! Highly recommend William if you’re looking for a massage therapist who truly cares and goes the extra mile.

One of the best spots in NYC! This has quickly become our favorite. The studio spaces are top-notch, and the facility is well-maintained and very nice. While the gym area looks a bit older compared to the 23rd Street location with its newer equipment, there's plenty of space and equipment available. It's a cozy, modern place that's never too crowded. Plus, their acai bowl is a hidden gem—better than many places in other parts of Manhattan!

It's a nice gym but looks like management does not care. Hydromassage chair is broken for a few weeks. Cycling studio bikes are partially broken and despite reminding the front desk they don't get fixed. I take cycling classes and noticed classes keeps disappearing on the calendar one by one perhaps to save money. I was a member at dumbo location and it has way more classes and better gym .time to switch to equinox

This is my favorite Lifetime. It's well designed, tons of classes, equipment, terrific instructors, convenient for trains, etc. What sets it apart, however, is how well managed it is. I've observed an unusual pattern; employees who work there are happy/content. I know not just because I see it; I've also asked them. That vibe trickles down into everything else - including member experience. I think this is likely attributable to the person who runs this location (Michael C). He is well-liked and respected by staff and members. He's a natural leader; the elusive kind that truly cares and somehow keeps everyone happy while managing to also be the calm ship's captain in sometimes stormy waters. Achieving that in NYC - the pinnacle of difficult personalities / high stakes - is no easy task...

I go to Lifetime one wall all the time - Friendly staff and great facilities/classes. Ron, Mary and Alejandro are fantastic class instructors alongside Will who is brilliant for massages in lifespa. Everyone is highly knowledgeable about exercises and effective recovery.

Equinox was a major letdown. The staff was unhelpful, the gym overcrowded, and cleanliness poor. For the high price, the service and experience were subpar, with overcrowded classes and constant upselling. Not worth the cost—look elsewhere for a gym that values its members.

Total waste of money. The trainers just don't care. I paid for sessions and had trainers cancel on me, try to move my session, or forget I had a session altogether. The equipment isn't even that nice anymore and they're constantly out of bath towels. The back bathroom constantly smells like vomit (not sure what's going on there). Save your money and pay for an average gym because that's what this place is, an average gym with "luxury" pricing.

I'm deeply saddened and disappointed by how my recent issue was handled by management. My encounter with Kelli, the Assistant General Manager, was far from satisfactory. After a distressing experience with a trainer on Sunday, August 4th, I have decided to cancel my membership. The trainer approached me with intrusive and inappropriate questions, which Kelli later described in an email as "weird." Apparently, this is how trainers are trained to seek out clients, which is troubling given that the trainer didn’t even introduce herself. Initially, the trainer made me uncomfortable by commenting, "nobody should be touching these machines with their bare skin," and then questioned whether I had cleaned the equipment. As a member, I find it unacceptable that a staff member would make such remarks. Regardless of whether I cleaned the machine or not, it is Equinox’s responsibility to ensure that equipment is consistently sanitized. Things took a further turn for the worse when the trainer approached me again about 30 minutes later. She said, "I was looking for you to bug your life," and proceeded to ask if I was interested in working with her. After I politely declined, she proceeded to ask, "well, what do you do if you don’t mind sharing," while scrutinizing me. I shared these details with Kelli, who repeatedly questioned how I could prove that the trainer was not looking at others in the same way. As a woman who has lost 130 pounds, I know firsthand what I experienced and find Kelli's dismissal of my concerns unacceptable. To make matters worse, Kelli threatened to hang up on me during our conversation because I was emotional. This behavior, combined with the numerous negative reviews about her, clearly shows that Kelli is not a good manager and does not care about her members. Equinox used to be my safe space, but after this experience, it no longer feels that way. I am truly disgusted.

Really poor experience at Equinox Tribeca. After over a year of being a member in Boston with a great experience, I moved to the city and had to transfer clubs. I joined equinox Tribeca and had a horrible experience. The worst part being management. The club manager, Kelly, was the most rude and disrespectful person I have ever come in contact with. After an unresolved issue with billing, I had reached out to the club multiple times, and they continued to say that the club manager would be in touch, either via email or phone. I waited over 6 weeks for a call, and never received one. After calling numerous times, I finally received a call back from “Kelly.” She screamed at me on the phone, refused to help me or escalate the problem, and then hung up on me. After reading other reviews, it seems other members have had similar issues with this same club manager. Really disgraceful.

The gym is fine, its nothing special but its fine. The management of this stupid is HORRENDOUS. I had a yearly membership that I was not able to use due to moving out of the city and the manager ghosted me when I tried to cancel, but I signed a contract so I understand. At the completion of the contract I reached out to ensure I didn't auto renew on a yearly basis and was told by the front desk associate that the manager would give me a call. Crickets, I ended up getting charged in April. I reached out again and was told I couldn't cancel over the phone and I would get an email to cancel. Once again, crickets. I got charged in May. Called to cancel, and finally was successful in cancelling however they cant promise I will get refunded for the last two months and its up to the manager and they will give me a call to discuss. I wont hold my breath.

Nice spacious gym with a water view. Not fancy but it has what you need. Also has a nice smoothie coffee snack bar.

Disappointing Experience and Poor Communication I had a frustrating experience at Chelsea Piers Fitness. During a walk-through with Zack, I was told that my 16-year-old son could use the gym, which made me excited to get him a membership, especially since they offer boxing. However, both times I brought him, they asked for his ID. I explained that all he has is a school ID, which doesn't have his birthday on it because he's 16, but they wouldn't accept it. When I tried to cancel my membership on 1-14-25 6:30pm, I couldn't do it directly. The manager said someone would call me to cancel, but that never happened. Overall, it’s been a big waste of my time and money. The lack of clear communication and poor handling of the cancellation process were very disappointing.

One of the best gyms I been to. Offers a good amount of sport activities (rock climbing, basketball, swimming, running). The gym equipment's are clean and most importantly plenty of space to workout. The gym staffs are nice and they offer lots of classes as well.

By far the best gym I have ever been to in Manhattan! Immaculate facilities, tons of equipment, extraordinarily well-kept and fresh-looking locker room with an excellent sauna and steam room. However, what sets this place apart from the rest is the atmosphere and environment in the gym. It’s light and airy, with high ceilings and windows that let in tons of natural light, looking out to the river. Since it’s on a pier, you can even see the Statue of Liberty down the bay. It motivates me to come back every day. The sheer amount of activities here is mind-blowing, from the indoor track, boxing ring, volleyball, basketball, and pool. Even the stretching area is excellent, with the artificial turf. The cafe seating area can double as a coworking space with Wi-Fi and views looking south down the river. The coffee in the cafe is even good! They also offer a private locked bike storage area in the garage included in the membership. I can not say enough good things about this gym.

The facility is great and the new management (since 2019 I believe), just terrible. Right now, the swimming pool is closed for renovations: it was supposed to reopen on Labor Day weekend, it’s now mid November and still closed. On top of that, the management does not communicate on expectations on reopening timing. Terrible customer service. Also, be aware of hidden fees. I asked to freeze my membership because of the pool not being accessible and they are now charging me 30$ MONTHLY freezing fee: this is totally unreasonable and definitely gives me the feeling they are in the rip-off business. Please owners, change the management as soon as possible: CPF it’s been a lovely place for more than 8 years for me and the people in charge have been making the customer experience worse every day since they joined.

I had an amazing experience at Crunch Gym! Every time I visit the city, I make it a point to return to this fantastic facility. The front desk staff, especially Dahlia, is incredibly professional and welcoming. She always greets me with a smile and is ready to assist with any questions I have. The gym is well-equipped, clean, and has a great atmosphere. I highly recommend Crunch Gym to anyone looking for a great workout environment. Can't wait to come back!

short: It's a fun and clean place to work out with classes, showers, and towel service included. The ambient lighting is beautiful and inviting. money-saving tip: check with your employer to see if you're eligible for the corporate rate, which is about 30% discount off the monthly rate long: I inquired about the corporate rate for my employer. I was excited to learn that it's about 30% off. I met with Louis that day after work. He gave me a tour and explained things. I really appreciate the exceptional experience he provides. I signed up immediately. The place just feels right. Unlike other gyms like Planet Fitness and blink where I want to leave as soon as possible, this place I actually want to stay, relax and recover, then workout more.The classes really make the membership price alone worth it. I work in an office so I'm sitting down all day, therefore I need movement and I get it from the classes. I did sign up for a dozen personal training sessions, and it's worth it. Jordan, the lead personal trainer, is very knowledgeable to a point that it shows he has a master degree in it. My personal trainer is Octave, a former soccer player. He is very patient and positive. This is the first time that I felt that the personal training was actually customized for my goals. In the past I had a personal trainer at blink and the guy seemed to have one general plan for everyone because he didn't incorporate anything I asked for and when I confronted him about it he insisted that I need a general plan to get in shape. I canceled after the third session. Max and Brandon are also great. Now, this location does get crazy crowded, especially on Mondays. Basically: Monday to Wednesday is crowded. The great thing is that almost no one does legs at this location,so those machines are available every day and night. The first day I went, a girl had her personal belongings scattered on the machine and on the seat of a leg machine. I thought it was the girl on the next machine and she informed me that the girl is on the other side of the room. I approached her to ask if she finished using the machine, while she was busy crab-walking with a resistance band, and she told me that she had one more set to do. I was like oh no not on my first day I can't tolerate this, so I went downstairs and informed Louis that a girl was holding a leg machine hostage while she was doing a different work out at the other side of the room. He went upstairs and took care of it right away. Ever since, I mostly just do legs, personal training, and classes. I am very happy here. In comparison to Equinox, which I also joined, this is the smart choice: bang for the buck, and no twelve month commitment. Equinox does have refrigerated minty fresh towels that I do love. Highly recommended. For anyone looking for great classes at Crunch I recommend the following: - Michael A - Chelsea - Mitchell - 54th - Adam - Chelsea

Crunch Chelsea is a standout gym, not just for its equipment and staff but for the atmosphere and vibe that make every workout feel inspiring. The lighting and ambiance are next level, it’s modern, cool, and designed to keep you motivated. The dimly lit training areas are balanced with vibrant pops of color that energize the space, making it feel more like an upscale creative studio than a traditional gym. The manager was incredibly helpful and kind, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. My personal trainer, Octave, was exceptional. Being French myself, I was thrilled to connect with a trainer who shared my background and understood my goals. Octave’s expertise working with artists, creatives, and models was evident, and his tailored approach was exactly what I needed. Crunch Chelsea combines style, substance, and an unbeatable vibe. Whether you’re there for the inspiring ambiance or top-notch training with Octave, this gym is a true gem. Highly recommended!

I absolutely love Crunch Gym at this location! The classes are fantastic, and the instructors are always motivating and supportive, which makes every workout enjoyable. Max, who helped me sign up last year, truly made a difference in my experience. He took the time to explain all the membership options clearly, ensuring I chose the plan that suited me best. Beyond that, Max has been incredibly helpful ever since – he’s always available to answer my questions, offer guidance, and make the gym feel welcoming and comfortable. His friendly and approachable attitude has made a big impact, and it’s clear he cares about the members' experience. Crunch is an amazing gym with great classes, a positive atmosphere, and staff like Max who genuinely go the extra mile. I highly recommend it! Inna

Crunch Fitness is one of the greatest experiences that I’ve had at a gym. Dahlia was so helpful and welcoming. She made me feel comfort and warmth with all of the support and information that she gave me with the entire gym and the process. I didn’t normally go to public gyms due to lack of confidence, but Dahlia helped me let go of all of the anxiety and fear that has to do with public gym. I’m definitely going to remain a Crunch member as long as I live in Chelsea!

While in NYC for business, I got a day pass at Crunch Fitness on the days I worked out, and it was such a great experience! The staff were super friendly and really focused on making sure everyone felt welcome. One thing I loved, especially compared to gyms in Germany, was the free towels—such a nice touch! The location was super convenient, and the gym had everything I needed for a solid workout. Definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone visiting the city!

Sauna and steam room! Plus all the other things. Not sure why ppl don’t take classes here like at other locations (which are booked solid for all of January). True they don’t have a full sched but the classes they have are good.

Very nice cute gym but it threw me off that there were no squat racks. Clearly this gyms main clientele doesn’t mind that, but just a good thing to know before coming. Beautiful locker room, love the option of a hot sauna or a steam room. Will definitely be back.

This gym is so dated 😩 so old looking. When are you even going to remodel and update your look and new equipment. It has to be one of the uglier gyms I've ever seen. Looks like a cheap gym from the 1980s or something. Just saying 😌 🤷BTW I'm being kind giving it 3 stars 🌟

I had chance to visit this gym recently. The place has lots of new equipments for every level of exercises. It is very clean and organized overall. The staffs in the front desk are very welcoming and friendly. I also like the sauna and steam room in the female room. There are also plenty clean towels in the changing room. The location is also very convenient. I had a great experience overall. Highly recommended to everyone who enjoy every level of exercises!

Joined this location this past summer and have had a great experience thus far. The locker rooms are kept in great condition (Joanne is the best!), they have all the equipment you would ever need and the classes are plentiful. While it can be busy occasionally, it never feels too crowded thanks to the multiple floors and different workout areas. Would definitely recommend!

I personally love this location (I would say my favorite one) Royce is a gem! From the moment I signed up, he was incredible to work with. I have met a ton of cool people at this location. It’s located in the heart of West Village. Amazing views from the top floor. I cannot wait for when the pool is open this summer 🙌🏼

Insanely overcrowded now as they try to recover the losses during Covid. Looks and feels like a budget gym, but for $300/month. Elevators break every week and they don’t even notify members anymore

Printing House is the most beautiful Equinox I’ve been to. I love the skyline view in the yoga studio, the pool deck, and all the natural light. The variety of classes and instructors make it easy to find something that fits my vibe for that day.

Excellent gym! Salesguy Moses is not only super informative but also in better shape than all the trainers including Prince.

Its always clean. I almost never had to wait for a machine, but it did tend to get crowded sometimes because it's a little small. Everyone that worked there was always nice and helpful. The locker rooms were nice and big with plenty of stalls and lockers. All in all its been a 10/10 experience.

I'll give 4 stars for now because I only went once after work. I will say that I felt very comfortable at this location. I went to the one in the heights and felt weird cause everyone was staring at me as I walked in. At this location the staff was friendly and helpful. It was clean and I love the layout and how easy it is to find everything. It wasn't packed and I got there at 9pm. I wish they were open later on Friday Saturday and Sunday because when I get off work I like to go since it's in the area but they will be closed already. Overall my first experience was pleasant and I'll keep going for sure.

Planet Fitness offers a great variety of equipment for every muscle group, making workouts enjoyable and effective. As a Black Card member, I love the added perks like the massage chair and bed. Highly recommend!

I really enjoyed being a member here. The customer service was great and very attentive. This gym had a lot of different pieces of equipment and I felt that I did not have to wait at all for a certain machine to become available. Unfortunately I had to move and I did not want to continue my membership elsewhere but when I come back to NY I do plan coming back here. I loved the spacious bathroom and locker room. Very well put together as well as affordable plus accessible.

Staff are nice but management never fixed the machines, unfortunately seen this at all planet fitness locations. Lacking benches and treadmills/stair climber/other machines are out for several months and all thats said is they’re waiting on parts. Its clear the people that own this place do not actually care for maintaining it. Obviously not expecting anything amazing out of a budget gym, but this is just negligent.

short: great location for people that love stairs and working out without air conditioning. The only reason I tolerate this poorly managed location is because Mitchell is an amazing dance instructor. long story: My dance buddy Sam recommended that I go to this location for Mitchell's dance class on Sundays. Mitchell is a character. I don't agree with everything he says, but overall, he seems to have unlimited energy. He is great at making any person at any dance level feel welcome and supported. It's been several consecutive Sundays that the air conditioner is not on, and Mitchell is not able to turn it on because the management locks him out of the controls. At least Mitchell cares, and we all suffer through it as a team. It's ridiculous for the amount Crunch charges to members to not let the class instructors turn on the air conditioning. My personal trainer is out of town for the holidays, so I signed up for the boxing class on Saturday. I even purchased hand wraps that are required. I could feel from the start of the class that the air conditioning was not on. I assumed it wouldn't be much cardio, so I thought I could tolerate it, but the class turned out to be much more cardio heavy than I expected. I asked the instructor if the air conditioning was off. Unlike Mitchell, he told me to go talk to the front desk if I have a problem with the ac, so I left the class. I stopped by the front desk and asked them why the air conditioner is off every Sunday. The guy told me that the only person that has access to it is the operations manager, and when that person is out, no one can turn it on. WTF kind of operation is this? Crunch has classes seven days a week. People are paying over $100 a month, and no one can get an air-conditioned class the days that person is off? The management's practices are unacceptable. This is not Planet Fitness or Blink. I only go and recommend the dance class with Mitchell. For anyone looking for great classes at Crunch I recommend the following: - Michael A - Chelsea - Mitchell - 54th - Adam - Chelsea

It is a good gym, quite organized and with good equipment. But it really bothers me a lot that on many occasions they play with people's time, on several occasions they always open up to 40 minutes later than the time they have planned. An example of today, Thursday, November 28, 2024, they said they would open at 7 am and I was outside for 40 minutes in the rain and cold waiting for them to open and in the end I had to leave. The worst of all is that I took the pre-workout and to my surprise the gym was closed.

People are complaining about the recent renovations, but they did give advanced notice (I got multiple emails for weeks leading up to it in addition to signage around the gym) and extended access to other locations in the meantime. My experiences here have been almost entirely positive. If you’re looking for a straightforward, clean, safe gym, this is all of those things. The cost kept me away for a while but I honestly think it’s worth it just for a reliable and clean location close to home.

Awesome gym. Was there on a Saturday, not crowded, three floors of equipment. A little bit disorganized though, but still a great place to workout. So far the best Crunch location I’ve been to

It’s ridiculously crowded at times and a lot of people sit on machines texting. Also at around 5 the same group of grown men yell loudly at each other across the gym. It would be fine if it was a $30 membership. It’s a rip off for the price. Go to another gym if you can.

I am heartbroken that I need to: 1. Rate this location poorly, 2. Stop my membership. I recently switched to Equinox because of this location of lifetime. This location was the easiest access to me. However it is NOT WORTH IT! If you’re going to the other locations in midtown they are absolutely worth it. But this one has such a small area for weights/machines. It’s too small for me. There is only one of each machine so that means that you need to constantly be waiting to use another machine because someone must be using it. Also, one thing I really hate, I do not see any wipes to clean the seats. Maybe it’s just the times I went but I NEVER saw any wipes to clean the equipments and it’s so disgusting to think about. Maybe it’s just my OCD? But it was a major turn off and honestly the biggest factor as to why I made the heartbreaking decision to end my membership. Trust me I did not want to do that. Lifetime is the ultimate luxury gym. The changing rooms are gorgeous and the gym always smells AMAZING!!! Best scent I’ve ever smelled. If you are not a germaphobe like me, then go ahead and join Lifetime. I just can’t bring myself to justify having a membership when I feel uncomfortable or disgusted or paranoid when using the equipment.

I’ve been to fair share of gym in manhattan and recently retired from equinox. This place makes me feel positive energy and welcomed. Even the maintenance staff are friendly unlike equinox, I think that goes to show what type of company Lifetime is.

Kinda small but if you avoid off hours it's usually not busy and there's a good selection of weights & machines. Nice that there are multiple squat racks and benches. Kept clean and lockers are nice.

Had an amazing ARORA strength training class. On Friday, August 23 with Jo. I was the only participant LUCKY ME! Lifetime please more Arora classes. The classes are perfect for any age. Not just for those who crossed the Senior citizens bridge.

This is the smallest gym I’ve been to outside of a hotel. Very easily crowded. It is just too convenient to my office to not go.
