Krank — Local services in New York

Before Krank, I exercised sporadically. Sometimes I would run or take a yoga class or work out to Youtube videos. But I did none of these things consistently. I needed to commit myself to care of my body and subsequently my mind. For me, exercise makes me a happier person. I sleep better and I’m less anxious if I work out routinely. I needed to join a gym to hold myself accountable.

When I started Krank, I couldn’t complete a work out. I stopped my assessment after thirty minutes because I felt like I was going to vomit and faint all at the same time. Now, I can complete an hour to an hour-and-half work out with no problem. The elevation of my stamina alone is staggering. I have energy that lasts. Also, I have muscles. Krank introduced me to weight lifting. I’d never held a bar bell in my life, but the coaches saw that I could excel and enjoy it. I’ve gained about fifteen pounds since starting the strength training.

As someone who keeps a pretty busy schedule, I like the programs at Krank because I’m not working out alone. There is always a coach there to tell me what to do, to look out for my form and therefore safety, and to push me to do more. Plus, it’s fun. Krank is genuine community.

Obviously, I highly recommend joining Krank. I was someone who had never been part of a gym before. I’d never taken classes beyond a drop-in once in awhile. I didn’t consider myself someone who enjoyed working out. All that is different now. If you’re ready to commit to yourself, to give yourself a healthier and happier practice,...

One year complete! Krank Brooklyn is by far the best gym I have joined in my life. It extends past the "gym" and that's the key. Krank is a community and it's the type of community you dream about in a gym setting.

Coaches (Miguel, Matt and Dan) - Every coach at Krank is not only experts at what they do, they are all active. One powerlifts, one is a body builder, etc. That means they struggle with the same things we struggle with, long days, injuries, the ability to have conversations about things outside the gym and much more.

Members - This is not the place for a "light, ineffective, workout". Don't believe me, sign up for a trial and see how even the warmup activates parts of your body you were not aware of. (Beginners are encouraged to take it slow - Loved this) No one is judgemental, and everyone looks out for each other here. This is a diverse community - different age groups, sizes, shapes, and gym experience. One of a kind!

Gym - The amount of equipment and training exercises in this gym will catch you off guard. There is never a dull moment, and a full kettlebell collection from 10lbs - 150lbs. Note: this comes with instructions and 100 exercises by the coaches. Your body will get the package deal.

Summary I would need a podcast session to talk about Krank so I will cut it short. What are you waiting for? Sign up for the trial, come in with a beginner's mind and put in the work. Your confidence, and results will...

Krank is the BEST, period. A real results, unpretentious, let's get down to business type gym, which I love. I've always considered myself an active person but these past few years did me in, physically and mentally. I learned about Krank through Instagram and signed up for their 2-week trial last winter and was immediately hooked! Krank workouts are very challenging but never boring, and they were just what I needed to jumpstart my new fitness journey.

The coaches are top-tier and very knowledgeable and I really like how sessions are structured. I had fractured my ankle in the spring shortly after formally joining and was worried that all the momentum I had would be cut short; however, accommodations were made that allowed me to continue to train safely. I've also learned about macros and how to eat better. And I have a great appreciation for kettlebells now, too. All in all I haven't felt this strong in a long time, and for that I will always be grateful.

I cannot recommend...
