Crunch Fitness - Midtown East — Local services in New York

I’ve tried them all—Lifetime, Equinox, Barry’s, OrangeTheory, Lagree Pilates, Solidcore. Now in my late 30s, convenience matters most. I joined Crunch because it’s right next to my office, making it easy to squeeze in an hour-long workout during my workday.

Midday, the gym is pretty empty. I’ve never had to wait for a machine, weights, or space by the mirror (where I usually stick to dumbbells). It’s not as polished as luxury gyms, but it’s not trying to be. Crunch is straightforward and practical.

The crowd is mostly the Midtown office type, and while the staff could be friendlier, that’s not why I’m here. The price is reasonable, and for what it offers, it’s a solid option.

Pro tip: Highly recommend the Thursday lunchtime Yoga Body Sculpt class with Carl!

Summary: If you’re looking for a convenient, no-frills Midtown gym, Crunch gets the job done. If you’re after a $300 / month lifestyle gym experience,...

This place is a dirty mess. Been a member for 2 weeks and fully regret it. The mirrors are never cleaned with the same sweat spots and smudges every day. Coming at 5am when they open there are no wipes in all the containers, the floors are filthy, and sweat stains all over the cardio and weight machines. I was told the gym is cleaned daily but they were obviously don’t actually clean everything. It’s disgusting when you walk around and look. The gym is so hot as they nrver have ac going . Only 2 elliptical machines and every morning one women is on one for over an hour so only one machine and it’s always used too. So don’t ever expect to get an elliptical from 5-7am.

This place is just to small and not big enough to hold hotel quests and locals, a quarter of a normal crunch gym. There is never staff walking around to pick up constant wipes scattered around or weights scattered. This place...

This gym is exactly what I was looking for in nyc. It’s never too crowded like so many of the other gyms I tried out, their equipment is all brand new and the space itself is so motivating— the classes are fantastic I’ve taken a trx diesel class and a vinyasa yoga class, my instructors for both were fabulous and the classes were so fun and I got such a good workout!! Tara is also the most wonderful person I’ve ever met in a gym— so if you’re signing up ask to speak to her!! Overall I could not be happier with the gym, I literally have been raving to all my friends about it back home since I signed up. I’m never one to give reviews but they DESERVE these 5 stars more than any gym I’ve ever worked out at. Not to mention the membership price is very reasonable compared to other gyms and the facility is stunning. Thank you so much crunch. Such a motivating and amazing...
