Trainers near Highland Park

“We had our son’s birthday party at @KineticsNJ and it was such a great experience! The vegan cooking class and fitness fusion party was fun, energetic, and really well run. The hosts were amazing with the kids, the food was delicious, and the vibe was perfect! The space is clean, welcoming, and great for families. We all had a wonderful time and would recommend them again and again! We cannot wait to go back! Thank you KineticsNJ team for a time well-spent!“

“Love this gym especially because it has classes for kids and daycare so It lets you workout while they are been taking care of.“

“Review: Chrissy is the Real Deal

5 Stars

Here’s the thing about getting older. You suddenly realize that “staying busy” is not the same as “staying healthy.” I learned this the hard way after losing a friend way too early to heart disease. That’s when it hit me. If I actually want to make it to my golden years in one piece, I need to stop pretending that running around like a crazy person counts as exercise.

So I joined the gym. Full disclosure, I’m 6 feet tall (in heels, obviously), hovering somewhere north of 230 pounds (my mom reads these things, so I’m being very conservative here), and I had exactly zero idea what I was doing. My master plan was simple. Pay enough money and the sunk cost fallacy would drag me in three times a week. Foolproof, right?

Wrong. Spectacularly, wonderfully wrong.

I walked in expecting Chrissy to be my accountability partner in an expensive game of “guilt into gains.” Instead, she turned out to actually care. Not in that performative “I’m getting paid” way. She’s looked at my workouts, my diet, my sleep schedule, my stretching routine at home. She’s basically appointed herself the guardian of every system I have going, and somehow that’s made all the difference.

But here’s what really gets me. She’s made this fun. I know, I know. Working out is supposed to be a joyless slog through suffering. But Chrissy has somehow made it feel productive and enjoyable, which should be illegal.

Whether you’re a complete newbie like me or you’re circling back to fitness after a long hiatus, Chrissy will build a plan that actually fits your life. So go see her. And when you do, tell her Neal sent you.“

“Absolutely love this gym! The staff is super friendly and always willing to help, and the variety of equipment is fantastic. I've met so many great people here; it's become my second home!“

“Great clean place. Staff extremely helpful. I recommend this place when you are in town for a visit
02jul2025 0800 Good morning Sarah(manager) I visit her periodically the music in the men locker room and throughout the gym is somewhat blaring can you please find a way to get it to moderate level? Thanks“

“Nasir helped me a lot with the application and introduction. Great place for workouts and recovery.“

“Planet Fitness is a great place to work out. The gym is clean, the equipment is well-maintained, and there are plenty of machines so you never have to wait long. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is relaxed without any pressure. It’s a solid gym for anyone looking for a comfortable place to exercise.“

“My child has been going here for the past 6 years and has very much enjoyed the experience. Not only has it improved my child’s physical fitness but also helped gain confidence, discipline and self control. Chief Master C is a great teacher!!!“

“I like it here but my only thing is that, I don't feel much air condition and I feel like there is no air ventilation in here. Otherwise I like it here“

“A fountain of knowledge and capable know how! I highly recommend using these services!“

“Have been going for years. An amazing taekwondo school with the greatest instructors. This school teaches you forms, defense drills, combinations, sparring, and most of all: confidence. Curriculum is well structured. Black Belt Institute helps you become the best version of yourself.“

“I've been going here for almost eight years now and it's great for many reasons. You get to join a polity and welcoming community while getting into shape. Overall a great place to go to.“

“Edward was great in explaining the membership options and made it extremely easy for me to join“

“Our son began attending EMA at the age of five, when he was quite the little dragon. Since then, he has transformed into a caring, disciplined, and focused child. Branson eagerly looks forward to attending class, not only to learn self-defense but also valuable life lessons. From little Dragon to junior Black belt, we are so proud of how far he has come with the awesome mentors EMa has provided us. We can’t wait to see what his future holds. Thanks team EMA!“

“Love it! Great trainers and personalized programs. Every gym membership before this was wasted and I never went more than a handful of times despite paying for years. Not here!! I've been a regular here for 3 years and have seen great results. I would recommend Phoenix to anyone looking for accountability, a non-judgmental atmosphere, and a huge improvement to your health and fitness!“

“I was a health club regular for 30+ years until Covid hit, and my gym of many years closed most locations. I tried another gym affiliated with a local hospital, but it wasn't a good fit. I got a gift membership for Crunch in East Brunswick in 2024, and decided to get a personal trainer. I'm happy with the facility, which is convenient for me, and have continued my membership. I'm extremely happy with my trainer, Ralph Hernandez, who is excellent. Professional, courteous, knows how to motivate and encourage, and a decent human being. I look and feel better physically.“

“very clean, nice staff, good environment and very friendly incredible peanut butter cup protein shake“

“I’ve been coming here with my husband for the past three years, and we always look forward to boxing with Justin and cycling with Crystal! Crystal’s classes are especially motivating, and her energy makes every workout enjoyable.

One of the things I love most about this gym is the friendly and encouraging staff, they always make you feel welcome. The facilities are consistently well maintained, including the pool, saunas, and locker rooms, which are always clean.

It’s also incredibly convenient to stop by after work at the hospital. Overall, it’s been a great place to stay active, and I highly recommend it!“

“I went to start working out after years of not and they are great with having group sessions and one-on-ones and always help me out. A great group of trainers always recommend them to family and friends!! ?️“

“Amazing service Piv was very polite very attentive
He took the time to explain all of the plans that the gym offers
Thank you“

“I love being part of the BHPT family! The strength programs are perfectly constructed for what I need and after 2+ years - I continue to be challenged and continue to improve. Sessions are fulfilling, well planned, lively, and just a good time while getting a workout in with sweat and a smile. I have never felt stronger!“

“I started at EZ Fit when I was at my weakest, struggling with endurance, eating, and gaining weight. I could barely work with my own body weight, however Emmanuel's guidance and support have been transformative. With his help, I've not only grown muscles but also gained confidence in my body. I've achieved my personal goals and feel stronger than ever.“

“After weeks of chemo and radiation it was great to head toward getting my strength and stamina back“

“I highly recommend F45! Working out with such a supportive community has helped me meet my goals and gain confidence! Everyone is so welcoming, the coaches are helpful and the workouts will kick you butt (in a good way!) if you’re looking for a great gym, this is it!“

“Great trainers and programs. I love going to the gym and I like how they revamp the workouts every few months. I have been here 4 months and already notice progress!“

“Kinda dirty and a lot of broken stuff. Not the best experience.

Update: I've tried nearly all the gyms in the area and this gym has everything I need. Plenty of equipment, dumbbells over 100lbs, a sauna, steam room, swimming pool, basketball court and plenty of space. Yeah it's kinda dirty but I can sacrifice that for all the amenities they offer. I ended up getting a year membership at this gym and go there regularly. Don't waste your time looking at other gyms and just sign up here it's the best gym around at an affordable price.“
