One of the best investments that I have made recently was to join the UpFit family! All 3 of the locations are extremely clean and have all the equipment you might need, the programming is top tier and the whole thing has a luxury feel to it. I’ve been doing personal training for a few months now and I gotta say I love coach Erika! Every session feels like going to therapy while also getting shredded, and any time you’re trying to slack off, you’ll be motivated to get it done one way or another. Very grateful to have started my training at UpFit!

5/5 stars!! Trainers are compassionate and encouraging. Have only had pleasant experiences. Affordable and doable. Perfect place to begin or maintain personal fitness. Really can’t fully express my satisfaction with customer service, exercises, and specialized coaching. Shoutout all the nice trainers, Robert, Wes and Erika.

Great community and awesome coaches. I used to feel intimidated and lost when I was on my own starting my fitness journey, but UpFit made me look forward to training regularly. If you are in the same boat, I cannot recommend this place enough. Small group training is a great alternative to personal training which costs a lot more. I’m so glad to have this option. After a year here, I can confidently say that my baseline happiness, health, and confidence has gone up, and I look forward to continuing my journey with my UpFit family! 💪 LOVE BRIAN, ERIKA, ALY!!

Clean facility with lots of equipment and not over crowded. Coaching is attentive with lots of small corrections to help you get the most out of your workouts. Coach Brian is the best- super supportive and listens to any feedback. There is a CitiBike rack out front which is helpful since the gym is a bit of a walk from the subway. Overall, a great training option in the Boerum Hill and Gowanus area - perfect if you don't want to have to go Downtown for high-quality training.
