This is a great Fitness place with lots of machines and other equipment. But whats enchants me the most is personnel! Very friendly, always in a positive mood, greet you with a smile. Now, they left only their best stuff and all the guys are amazing! This gym works almost 365 days/year during holidays, snow storms, blizzards and if you are Really not lazy and dedicated a 300 lb is always a 300 no matter what gym you go, but I chose Blink (for a 4rth year in a row). Plus, the gym is very clean and is being taken care every single day. (Yeah, there is no pool (however, after I visited one of the most "advertising" gyms and there were literally 20 people in 2 lanes, what ruined my pool experience Im glad we have no pool) and there are only 3 bench presses - if you really want you can organize the time to pump up the iron, i.e. can work with a spotting partner(s) for example. Also people in the gym are of educated and well behaving background, with no quarrels and friendly as well. And to summarize everything said above is this gym is very affordable, with great deals all year round. I personally pay about 2 times less than at any gyms in Brooklyn, to my knowledge and Ive been training for about 7 years now. Thanks all of You, guys, a lot! And dont stop Blinking ;) P.S. Im not an owner, neither an employee @ the Blink and the only purpose of this lengthy comment was to show a gratitude towards my favorite gym, where I have joy to train at.

I tried this gym initially using a trial membership. This location is fairly new and pretty spacious for the services provided. I say this because I am currently a member of a gym that provides classes in addition to equipment and weights. This gym definitely wouldnt have enough space for any type of classes. But overall the facilities are very modern. I need aerobic classes especially during those times that Im lazy. They do offer trainers like most gyms today but I wasnt impressed by any of the training services that I saw. Overall, the gym is very clean and modern. However, on the negative side during the evening hours it can become very crowded. The size of the evening crowd can be overwhelming only because of the members themselves. While working out I found it hard to use the machines simply because many of the members sit on the machines for long periods of time without moving a muscle. I even attempted to ask some that werent using their machines but instead of getting they would simply reposition themselves and insist that they were using it. Ive never experienced this so much In any other gym. The only positive aspect to me were the late evening hours offered. I would recommend this gym to anyone that simply looks for gyms with the most up to date equipment and personal TVs to watch while they do there cardio-this is the place for you! If you looking for more look elsewhere.

Personally best thing about the gym is the parking, besides that it is just a regular gym if not less. ive been going to this gym for about a year now, and the only reason is because its location was convenient for me. However, last week i got into an argument with one of the workers because i canceled one of my credit cards and missed a payment, i tried to explain that i will pay it next time i come, but she was stubborn. i explained to her that this innocence for me will make me change gyms, i told her that i couldnt pay that day no matter what however, if she made me leave that day then i wouldnt come back and i wouldnt pay at all for certain. Anyways, besides that the workers overall will greet you with a smile. The bad thing about this gym is that they do not have enough weights, or any benchpress at ALL. They have only have one cable machine, and even though everything is clean, some of the machines are torn and it takes them about a month to get it fixed. If you are the type of person that heavy lifts and does strength training, i do NOT suggest you this gym. you will not be able to get a good work out because most of the time you will be waiting in line to jump on a machine. I ended up changing gyms to harbor fitness go it is 20 a month it is small but i get a decent work out done.

Ive been a member at Blink fitness in the lower Manhattan area for over a year and use the facility during the week, since its close to my job. However it was difficult to motivate myself to go there on the weekends, so I was glad to find a location in my neighborhood, at an affordable price. I started working out here about a month ago and Im enjoying it. The area is nice and conveniently located. As for the facility, its clean, spacious, not crowded (weekends earlier in the day, not sure about other times) and the staff is attentive. The womens locker room is also clean and although towels are not provided, thats not a big deal for me since I bring mine.

This gym is super clean and the staff is friendly and personable. I usually come at night but the few times Ive gone in the morning, the staff is even friendlier and chipper. I was at the gym today in the afternoon and the red haired girl in front was wonderful and pleasant even when dealing with a screaming woman and she did not deserve that. The boy in the front with her as well handled the situation well and calmed her down afterwards. Theyre a very good pair and she handled it better than I wouldve! I jut have to commend the gym itself and the restraint and wonderful customer service that comes with it ! Defiantly a Blink worth going to.

This is a great gym for every type of local resident, Male or Female, White, Black, Latino, Asian, whatever. The fact that Blink has a lot of cardio equipment should not be of much concern to alpha males who cannot even bench 200 pounds. So, you should not complain, because like a Planet Fitness gym, Blinks target segment is not a lunk like myself that bench presses 275 pounds. Although, thank god, I cant complain, as both the staff and the clientele accommodate my strength training pretty well. Also, I think that you should have pictures of guys in the locker room as well. Malcolm Boyce would do the trick, lol.

The gym is not big enough and the space is not used efficient, too many unused equipment. I want to emphasize that the stuff is pretty friendly, but friendless is only 30% of success. Nobody conducts the research, what needs to be done to make the gym better, they maybe not aware how to do that. Nobody educates people how to behave in the public place, the stuff, possible, has the same personal approach to this issue, what may explain a lot unecceptable things going on in this gym. The only benefit to me is a close location, otherwise, Id be more then happy to change it.

The workout areas and the locker room are very clean. The machines are new and in working order. The staff is friendly and helpful. Corporate management needs to reduce the unnecessary number of cardiovascular machines and increase the number of resistance training machines. More Smith machines are needed and they need to have benches that enable one to do bench press, incline press and decline press with the long barbell. These problems are universal for all Blink locations. This particular location desperately needs a shoulder press machine and a lateral raise machine.
