Fitness & Gyms in Berkeley Heights, NJ

“As a nerd with a desk job, I was never the athletic type. The thought of entering a gym was daunting, and my ADHD made it challenging to stay focused during unguided workouts. Six years ago, as I was nearing 50 and feeling out of shape, I realized I needed a change. I sought an environment that would offer intense, guided workouts to keep my mind engaged for a full hour each day.That’s when I discovered CrossFit, and more specifically, 908 Athletics. It was exactly what I was looking for. The constant movement left no room for boredom. The exceptional programming and coaching kept me motivated and on track.In essence, 908 Athletics has been a game-changer for me. Despite not being an athlete, I found a place where I could improve my fitness in a way that worked for me. It’s safe to say that 908 Athletics has transformed my life”

“Before joining Gabriele Fitness, I hadn’t been a member of a gym since before the pandemic. I realized a while ago that typical fitness or gym culture wasn’t a good fit for me, and at-home workouts weren't working for me either. While I like being active, this last year had me feeling in a bit of a rut. I craved feeling stronger and challenging myself and my body in new ways and I knew I was going to have a hard time getting there without some form of motivation. After carefully considering lots of different options, I finally signed up for the 50 Strong Challenge with GFP and I’m so glad that I did. My results were both amazing and motivating! Here are a few of the things I love most about my experiences with GFP:It’s such a welcoming space. There is no toxic fitness culture vibe at all. My experience with the trainers Mike, Matt, & Chris and the other members have been so welcoming, encouraging, and supportive. They will work with you and your capabilities, offering endless modifications to make sure you can safely engage with the exercise, while also challenging you to reach your potential.I really enjoy the small group format. One of my initial reservations about group training after being out of the loop was not being able to keep up. But that’s not an issue at all. I’ve never felt rushed even if my pace was slower than those around me. For me there’s just a different energy when working out in a group as opposed to doing it solo. The groups are also small enough so that everyone still benefits from lots of individual attention from the trainer. It’s the best of both worlds.There is so much variety in the trainings and you’ll never do the same workout twice! I really love this aspect of the experience. I’m so glad to be part of this community.”

“"I started exercising to continue my rehabilitation and athletic life. I found areas that couldn't be fixed through various rehabilitation exercises at J rapha and was able to recover my body. I strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to correct their posture, recover , and live with abundant energy again."”

“This gym was amazing. Basketball. Lots of weights. Working machines. Amazing pool. Clean saunas. But I enjoyed the jacuzzi the most. Cant wait to go back”
