i like how vast it is, with designated areas for certain machines/open space to utilize handheld weights and other equipment. i especially love the back room where classes are held, as when they’re not holding classes it’s a great place to do some yoga before jumping into a workout or just stretch with extra privacy. i also think the theatre room is a versatile addition that i like. it’s also helpful having everything there from protein shakes to energy drinks/waters/water fountain to even meal preps and combination locks for the locker room. overall, this is one of the best gym experiences ive had as a bigger woman, usually i feel judged and not openly welcomed in other gym (such as blink fitness or planet fitness — which i’ve had memberships at both places for a time).
They keep the premises very clean , It does not smell bad like the other location in Union Turnpike, also the front desk waved a $20 late fee on my gym subscription. My first time . The atmosphere in that place is really good. NO weird stuff happening, everyone is concentrate on their work out routine. I LOVE the place and the staff really proffecional .
For the most part the gym is clean. It's a pretty big gym so that’s always a plus. The gym equipment could be updated but what they have gets the job done.
I really like working out at Retro Fitness in Glendale, NY. It's truly a fantastic gym, and I always look forward to my sessions there. One of the main reasons I like the gym is the atmosphere. It's welcoming and energetic, which makes it easy to stay motivated. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the other members are respectful and focused on their workouts. It never feels intimidating, even during peak hours.
They open early, and the place is clean compared to other gyms they offer a wide variety of equipment and services. The gym also has a speed bag and a heavy bag
The gym equipment and the atmosphere is love my only complaint is the playing of rap music, would be nice to hear rock and roll sometimes
By the way I am a member of retro fitness in Glendale, NY. Thank you
