“I have been a member of Aevitas gym for over 5 years. I have always felt very welcome and comfortable. Great bunch of people. Coaches are very good and attentive to make sure you are doing things correctly and safely. Very happy there !”
“I started going to Metabolic 5 months ago and I am absolutely in love! I never really worked out before, but as my 40th birthday was approaching I felt challenged to do something different. I previously had a membership to a traditional gym but I didn’t have the discipline to keep going. But my friend was going here for a while and her results were so impressive so I decided to try it. I’m so glad I did. This is the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. My family probably hates it because I won’t shut up about it! It’s been so great for my self esteem (and my body obviously). Plus the coaches are wonderful- they make sure that every class is a challenge, but they’re also careful to ensure that your form is right and you’re not lifting too much so you don’t injure yourself. And I can tell that they count my success as their success. Worth every penny!!!”

45 Railroad Ave, Albany“What can I say… I’ve been here for about 8 years and coached for most of them. There’s something special about this place. If you’re looking for a great community with a coaching staff that truly cares about your success? Look no further.”

160 Delaware Ave, Delmar“Stephanie the trainer is extremely knowledgeable and attentive as a trainer on a 1v1 level! I would recommend this gym to anyone that wants to take their health seriously, and appreciates a clean gym with a great atmosphere!”
“I love the Orangetheory Fitness (OTF) location in Albany. I've been going to this gym for 6 months, and it has been a really good experience. I especially love the coaches Ryan and Ariyana (I have mostly trained with them). The coaches are very considerate and helpful. I appreciate the helpful tips and tricks they share to make the exercises easier. I also like how they demonstrate alternative exercises when one of the exercises is tough or not feasible for me. I would definitely recommend OTF at this location.”
“Let me start by saying GF fitness is everything you would want it to be. They'll stay in touch, keep tabs on your progress, motivate you, and they're always there to help with any concerns. Every trainer has their own method so each class will be different from the one before. If you think it's expensive, just know that it's worth every penny. After having my daughter a year ago, I lost all motivation and didn't feel the excitement of working out again. GF fitness definitely brought that excitement and crave for the gym back. All the trainers there are amazing!”

35 Hamilton Ln, Glenmont“I’ve been a member here since 2015. There are a million positive things I can say, however what stands out the most is this: when the world shut down, when everyone was stuck at home, when small business were failing, John Hogan (Spur owner) didn’t shut down. He locked his doors like he was suppose to, he wasn’t making money, like everyone else. BUT he didn’t give up on his membership. He was still creating workouts for his membership, communicating with them, and LOANING the equipment to people who didn’t have any. He isn’t just a business owner, he is a community man, and a leader.”

Coach Kayla was very thorough, and helpful pointing out improvements in movements without being pushy.Solid equipment - I saw a lot of Rogue, very good condition barbells, weights, rowers, bikes, etc. Dumbbells and weight plates are very well organized - it makes a difference!!Came for a drop-in workout, and will come again next time I'm in town. highly recommend!”

5AM - 8:30PM
622 Loudon Rd, Latham“I cannot say enough good things about Nora, Kristen, Amanda, Mary and the rest of the staff at Her Strength. I started going to Her Strength last year when I was about 25 weeks pregnant and had recently suffered an intercostal muscle strain. Nora curated a program that aided in my recovery and helped prepare me for the birth of my second child. During a postpartum recovery class she held my 2 month old so he wouldn't fuss while she walked me through pelvic floor exercises and other movements that greatly assisted in my postpartum recovery (I no longer pee when I sneeze). The new programing that began in January has been excellent and allows for one-on-one coaching and customized workouts. In sum, Her Strength is a wonderful gym community. Highly Recommend.”
“Looking for a place to learn, grow, and be empowered? Then look no further! Empire Defense is that place. I came in as a complete rookie ( and still am lol) but not once felt singled out. All the instructors are attentive, patient and encouraging! I look forward to my classes every week!”
“Coach Irby is an excellent trainer. Very knowledgeable, able to instruct the kids with a great mix of patience and discipline. Classes are sized right for them to focus on the kids. He makes the kids work! Highly recommended. Clean and affordable.”

6AM - 8PM
57 Karner Rd, Albany“The gym is clean, well stocked with equipment and has a great staff. I am currently working in a small group lead by Justin, and he's fantastic! We're all at different fitness levels, and he plans our sessions with each one of us in mind. He thoughtfully plans so everyone is accommodated in a way that brings maximum benefit for all and meets each of us where we're at. He's encouraging without coddling. I'm accomplishing things I had no idea I could do! Reasonably priced as well. Highly recommend.”
“This gym is an amazing hidden gem in downtown Albany. Bryan, the trainer who runs it, is friendly and knowledgeable and has mentored me for over a decade now. You can workout solo or utilize Bryan or one of the other trainers. The place has a great feel, friendly people, flexible hours, plenty of space and equipment, fitness classes, and a convenient locker room with showers... everything I need. Somehow it stays very reasonably priced and is never too busy. My workouts there are the highpoints of my day. Can't recommend the place enough. With all the fitness centers that have come and gone, I'm glad this one has stayed around.”
“I have to give a shout-out to Grace and Imre! They were able to figure out how to untangle my boyfriend’s and my account ever since the Crossgates Commons PF flip-flopped our accounts. (My info was under his name vice versa since we signed up at the same time.) We tried about 3 other times to get everything fixed and they FINALLY were able to figure it out today. While they were helping us, they were also helping other customers check-in. THANK YOU!”
