SNS Strength Williamsburg

I was really considering transitioning from Calisthenics to powerlifting, however I had no clue on how to get started. I spoke with the manager, Alan, he was extremely knowledgeable on all aspects of training. He took the time to help me go over a new workout plan. He even helped me create a new diet plan and gave me solid advice on how often I should train and rest. I highly recommend SNS STRENGTH. It’s a great atmosphere. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

I stop going to gym since Covid started and the gym that I went closed after that. I was looking for 24hours gym in my neighborhood and I found this place. They have pretty much most equipment I want and the one they don't have I just have to find the way to get a replacement exercise by using the equipment they have which is I have no problem about it. Mostly this gym focusing extremely heavy lifting weight that regular gym doesn't have, and I like it. Everyone seems to be very friendly, and I feel free to do my exercises.

The “community” they built is all cool until there’s a difference in opinion, management is terrible and rude, equipment is minimal and what they do have is pretty old and gross. The previous 4, 5 star reviews all relatively appeared at the same time as that’s the “community” trying to save face. These gripes the other members mentioned recently is mainly not to face confrontation with staff as knowing them, they’d find anyway to kick you out as the higher ups consistently and apparently only check the cameras around the time people they don’t like show up to nitpick and have a reason to kick them out. In sum, gym is alright, staff has an ego and the “community” sway to whatever the owner says and finally, 140 a month is insane for a glorified run down warehouse. Do better.

I was a member when this place first opened in 2020 and left after a year due to lack of equipment and hygiene. Let alone the people that were in it. Never expected to have the experience of getting nasty looks for playing Hip Hop/Rap in this gym. If it wasn’t for how sensitive the people in this gym are, something would have been said earlier. Nothing but grown men with sensitive egos. I left and came back 4 years later with the expectations of improvements. I found dirtier equipment, Equipment that hasn’t been managed, Water filters that haven’t been changed in about a year (and trust me it wasn’t. I had to constantly bring my own water). Urine all over the seats and floors (most of the members are adults which is strange to say that some need potty training). You can’t even have a proper leg workout. Machines are scattered between the Williamsburg and Bushwick location, kid you not, I had to go from one gym to the next to finish a training session. And the members of the gym… I thought it was a suppose to be a gym, not a high school. After 4 years things remained the same, maybe a tad worse. Glad a majority of my friends left. So did I. Never coming back. There’s better gyms out there for a better price. Also, saying getting reviewed bombed by those who got kicked out? Negative. Not once was a rule broken. I just left because the place sucked.

This gym is an absolute disappointment. I've been there multiple times on day passes, trying not to judge it based on what could be a bad day. The conditions are subpar at best. During the winter, the place is freezing cold as if they couldn't pay the bill (but charge an arm and leg for day pass as well as membership). They don't seem to have a janitorial staff or any competent staff that can clean up a facility, so you can expect the place to be filthy. I see they claim to have a janitorial staff member now but based on what I'm seeing, I highly doubt that. For a so-called powerlifting gym, you’d think they’d at least ensure the deadlift platforms and combo racks are set up correctly, but apparently, attention to detail isn’t a priority. The equipment is honestly some of the worst I've lifted on. There's literal holes in the ground where you're supposed to lift. I literally built better equipment at home. At $140 a month, I expected much better. I won't be going back ever and I don't recommend anyone go back to that place.
