I'm in Lyndhurst visiting family for a week and decided to try 3 different boxes in the area.

They have such a welcoming, friendly environment. They utilized the space so well, everything is really well kept, and clean.

I was a member for close to 5-6 years and loved every second of it. The attention to detail that was provided by the coaches allowed me to reach milestones in my life and keep me injury-free. I still communicate with the coaches and made lasting friendships since joining. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area!!
