Reviews of Fitness Factory Gym (Gym)

Said Alsaleh

Good basic gym, the cardio machines needs some update other than that they grewt friendly staff

Bill Machado

I've been a member for over 3 years, and I feel the facility offers everything I need. From free weights to machines to classes... Not to mention the steam room and sauna! Also, the employees are always very friendly and helpful.

Camilo Fagundes

Great place to workout!

Helen Beglin

THE worst advertising gimmick ever! I came out of a store in Blue Star mall & found their ad on my car windshield. But not the usual just mildly annoying ad-on-your-windshield; this was GLUED on so tight that it could not be removed with water & a scraper. I had to buy fingernail polish remover, then soak the blasted thing with remover over & over, repeatedly scraping, too, while the ink stained my hands. If this is how they demonstrate disregard for would-be customers, how do they treat actual customers?

Keisha Branch

Great people! Another reason to look forward to my daily workout.

I really like this gym (nice facility, good equipment, generally clean, people are nice) but I'm knocking off 2 stars because Management/Staff does nothing to enforce the re-racking of weights. During both peak and quiet hours the majority of the equipment that uses free weights is loaded with multiple plates. The frustrating part is the staff/management will do their own workouts and walk right past all the loaded equipment? I've never seen any sort of patrol (to remind offending members) or sweep every couple hours to reset things. Again, it's a nice gym but be prepared to spend part of your workout unloading/walking around looking for weights because they are all on the equipment.

Good gym with new equipment, but this place not ventilated or air conditioning . Right away you feel stuffy air and sweat traces on all machines. Not for intensive workout, very low standards for cleaning . Management just ignoring your requests. I do not recommend who really like gyms and intensive training .

Bill Emery

I have been going to the Fitness Factory now for 9 months and really love it. The staff is friendly and very helpful. I had never done spin before and the instructors were so good in teaching me spin. If you are looking for a friendly gym to workout at the Fitness Factory in New Providence is the place for you.

Sujil Maharjan

Great gym. It can get crowded sometimes but the trick is to go there at 4 instead of 5

blake Johnson

Great spot for a lift. This place has just about everything you need for an amazing workout. I had spoken to Nick very knowledgeable and welcoming. Just a great lay out, worth checking out.

Eric Godoy

Great staff and perfect amount of space and equipment . Great value for monthly membership

tlchenvt

Affordable and great location. Always very clean (much cleaner than Lifetime in Berkeley Heights which is way more expensive). Nice staff. Free towel to use (same as Lifetime). Nice sauna especially in the winter.

Amitavha Mukherjee

1. Friendly staffs with a broad smile all around! 2. Huge collection of equipments. Never had to wait even during busy evening hours. 3. Always open - 365 days a year.

Karuppiah Vadivel

probably the worst ever Gym in and around NJ.Please stay away they lock you for 1-2 years and doesn't matter even if you die they will still debit money from your account and will never cancel the contract.I have heart issues and been talking to them for over 2 months and I provided doctor's note and they still want me to pay off my remainder of the membership fee to cancel my contract which is sick and I Will take this matter as high as possible to get this resolved,I will even take them to tribunal for sure.

Adebola Osofisan

Been going here since it opened. Great gym. Equipments are excellent. Haven't taken any classes but I hear they're great as well. Would definitely recommend.

Karin Souren

You offer a great selection of classes with excellent instructors, the equipment and facilities are up-to-date and very well-maintained, everyone is always very friendly, and I recently had a session with a personal trainer, which was also terrific! All of this at a very affordable price! Thank you!

Robbie Roettger

Great gym for people that are serious about weightlifting, boxing, calisthenics, etc. They offer many ammenities

Luz HC

A good gym... with friendly staff and fun classes. They have very good yoga instructors. I wish they had a swiming pool, though.

Jeff Michelson

Good gym with reasonable pricing..steam room and sauna are a nice feature. Weight equipment is a little outdated and when I suggested to the gym manager to bring in a new piece of arm equipment, he essentially said they have all the equipment you would ever need to do a workout and if I was suggesting new equipment I wasn't doing my exercises the right way. Been to a lot of gyms in my days and this gym just lacks certain equipment that I've seen in every other gym I've been a member of. Would appreciate if the management would listen to their customers rather than automatically assuming their customers aren't working out their muscles correctly.

Andrew Lo

Gym is okay, well kept and run like a typical gym. Left cause of inability of management to get new equipment and cause given the price of ~45, not worth it

Eric Brinton

I'm a weight trainer who's been using FF in NP for about a year. I use the gym in usually in the evening during peak hours, and on the weekends in the morning/early afternoon, also during peak hours. I train my entire body and use pretty much everything the gym has to offer in terms of training equipment and cardio equipment. This gym is good for regular to intense lifting and cardio. Pros: - Minimal BS, relatively not crowded, good representation of available equipment (I go at peak hours and rarely need to wait for/work in on a squat rack, bench, treadmills, etc.) - Contrary to another review I read, I find that the gym IS well ventilated/air conditioned. The thermostat is always set to 72 or 73 degrees, and there are ceiling fans always on throughout the gym. - Decently clean showers, lockers, and wet/dry saunas - Unconventional cardio choices like the new curved treadmill and Jacob's Ladder are great to have - Surprisingly big - Helpful/friendly staff and trainers - great wifi Cons: - Hours can be restricting. It would be nice if they opened at 4 or 4:30 am on weekdays, and if they stayed open a few hours later on Sat and Sun. It's difficult if you plan on having a long morning workout and start work early. - Overpriced: I'm paying $40 a month for a two-year contract. Given relative size and equipment, I would expect to pay between $25 and $30 a month. - My personal biggest complaint: WEIGHTS ARE VERY FREQUENTLY OUT OF PLACE AND NOT PUT BACK BY OTHER LIFTERS. The staff does not seem to do much about organizing (dumbbells out of place, left out on benches, plates put back on racks, such as a 45, 35, 25, 10 and 5 all shuffled together on one prong). I have used several gyms, including multiple college gyms, and I have never seen it this bad. - Lots of areas seem to be rarely cleaned (dust on top of machines and structures) - Often missing paper towels from the Men's bathroom (petty complaint, I know, but it happens pretty often) - Missing key machines/structures: no seated lateral delt raise machine, no T-bar rowing bench, no captain's chair (half yoga ball suspended in the air like the back of a chair with handles for lower ab work), No D-handle pulldown bar, to name a few. It would also be nice if the had a few less treadmills and more Stairmasters. - People waiting to start classes often crowd around and block the water fountains and cable machines in the gym area next to the group training room. Overall, I give it 3.5/5. I find my sessions enjoyable from an environmental standpoint and am satisfied with the gym.

Good equipment very nice gym . But steam room didn't function properly.

Steve Pepe

I've never left a review for anything but the other comment compelled me to provide my input. Disregarding contractual obligations and having to cope with the repercussions is no excuse for such a negative review as it is not a reflection of the establishment. Nick, Pat, Tyler, and the others have always been courteous and accommodating. I have been a member of multiple gyms over the past several years and none can compare in regards to price, atmosphere, and customer service. I have left other gyms in the area for one reason or another, but have no intentions of leaving FF for the foreseeable future. I would strongly recommend this gym.

Oscar Medina

Pretty big and has a lot of machines.

twebs11

The only complaint I ever have about here is that the music over the speaker system can be a bit loud, but other than that this is the perfect smaller sized gym. They've got everything I need to lift and workout.

Julie Capozzola

I'm really glad I joined this gym. There are lots of things I like - the equipment appears new, the fans provide excellent relief from the sweat, the showers are clean and have good water pressure, locker rooms are safe - locks can be provided if you're concerned, towels are provided for both sweat and showering, every cardio machine has a tv attached to it, the staff is extremely friendly and welcoming and there's a variety of machines and equipment to use. They offer both contractual obligations and month to month memberships so it is really up to you, how often you plan to go to the gym and whether or not a contractual membership is right for you. There are a few things that could be improved - larger variety of cardio machines (there are perhaps too many treadmills), shampoo/conditioner in the bathrooms, more squat racks!, the tv's with the cardio machines are usually fuzzy, and often around 6:30 there aren't enough clean sweat towels for everyone. Despite that, this gym offers everything I need for a good workout. It's a great place with a great team running it

Antanas Mockus

No complaints about this gym. Lots of classes, not full, clean facility, great hours and friendly staff.

Igor Laberov

Very rich choice of exercise tools, good instructors. A little bit pricy

Gaurav Lamba

This is a good option for someone looking for a clean, functional gym with all the basic necessities in the New Providence area.

anthony young

Very clean place
