Reviews of Absolute Power Fitness
Sage Greenstein
Absolute Power is a great gym with equipment for any area of your body you’re looking to improve. The staff is caring, looks out for your best interest and makes you feel welcomed. Pricing is affordable especially if you opt in for the annual plan ($44-50ish/month. Been a member for 1 year and plan on signing for another.
Jessica Gonzalez
One of the best decisions I ever made was getting a membership here. This gym has the best energy, staff, and feel. I truly look forward to my workouts here because I feel so comfortable in the space. The owner goes above and beyond to make sure all members feel welcome and have everything they need to feel right at home and enjoy their workout. The gym has a good mix of functional fitness with traditional gym equipment and doesn’t get too crowded like many commercial gyms in the area. Definitely recommend trying it out!

I have been a member of this gym for 13 years, even though I recently moved to Queens. I love the atmosphere here. And Miguel (the owner is awesome). He is very accommodating to loyal members. I hadn't returned for 2 years after the pandemic. He started my membership counter from scratch when I returned. I was prepared to negotiate as much time as I could get. I would never have guessed he'd offer a fresh new year starting on that day. I also like the mellow attitudes of the members of the gym. None of the usual Gym-Jerks here.
Come join! You won't regret it.
Kevin Seeley
I wrote the below while I was still living in the area and I still mean every word of it. I had some issues recently with the card on file and Miguel personally dealt with the situation. The whole team there has about the best customer service I have ever seen and they truly treat each member like family. I am trying to move back to the area just to go to this gym. Also they have the second floor open and new equipment!!
Absolutely one of the best gyms around. The owner Miguel is there everyday talking to his customers, checking up on everyone, and all around a great guy. The staff is all super friendly and is always available to help you. I'm very sad to be leaving this gym (moving out of the area) and have been struggling to find another like it, it's an absolute gem. My girlfriend who struggles with getting in the gym due to anxiety felt like she was at home here and that is really saying something. Please do not pass this place up. Also they are expanding into the second floor!
Mark Chittom
Absolute Power is an excellent gym. The staff is very friendly and responsive. Much better than the corporate gyms. They have the latest equipment and keep it super clean. Plus the rowing machine is almost always available! I can't recommend this gym enough. A membership with Absolute Power is an investment in yourself. Money well spent and worth every penny!
Skylar Senning
This is the best gym I have ever been a member of. Miguel (the owner) is such a nice guy and continuously updates the equipment. All the staff are very kind as well, and works hard to keep the facility super clean. While it can get busy during after work hours its never overly packed where you have to wait more than 5min for a squat rack or deadlift platform. Members are respectful and everyone works out hard!
Jade Pinero
This is a great gym! There is tons of space and it's never too crowded. Additionally, everyone is incredibly nice from staff to members.
Also - I had an issue with my billing and Miguel, the owner, was unbelievably helpful. It makes a huge difference when dealing with an issue to have a local owner with a stake in their business, versus a large corporate billing department.
10/10 would recommend!
Giulia Nagle
Absolute Power Fitness is the best gym. I’ve been going here for years and it’s a wonderful atmosphere to workout. The owner, Miguel, is friendly, personable, and he really goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has a pleasant experience. I could not recommend a better gym to join!
Volixen S
I’ve been coming here for about a year and I’m extremely happy. The owner, staff, and vibe are totally on point. Perfect amount of friendly, considerate, and serious 💪🏽. It’s clean, music isn’t monotonous or too pop-y, and the weights I need are always there when I want ‘em. I get on a train and travel 30 min past countless other gyms to come here; wouldn’t trade it for any other.
Ian McKenzie
Been coming here for a few personal training sessions and can’t wait to book more—the staff is very knowledgeable and professional. I called and was able to speak with Miguel immediately and he answered all of my questions. He matched my needs with the experience and personality of Aidan, a young expert in his own right. I have enjoyed every aspect of this gym so far—a great place to begin one’s fitness journey!
Zoe Zeeman
i absolutely love absolute power! i have been a member here since 2018 and have always had a great experience. the equipment is top notch, the facility is clean, and the staff are very welcoming and friendly! the owner miguel makes everyone feel right at home and knows many members personally. i always look forward to working out at absolute power and would recommend it to anyone in the neighborhood.
Sam Reiman
I have been on the road for work and stopped in to see if they had a day pass (they do) but ended up signing up for a week pass. It was cheap. The gym is no-frills in the best way. The space is on the smaller side but they make the most of it without making it unbearable. The staff are friendly and the members are not obnoxious.
Just to give a critique to balance it out, sometimes pairs of weights were hard to find. But it's a busy place at times and someone is probably using them.
All in all it was a good experience
Caroline Leary
Such a great gym experience. The owner and staff are so welcoming and provide great opportunities for personal training. This gym has a very non judgemental and welcoming environment. The space seems to absorb patrons during busy hours and is kept in good, clean condition. There are plenty of machines for everyone as well. The protein smoothies are delicious too!
Alex Booher
Incredible staff, incredible owner, and an unbeatable price. All of the weight lifting equipment you possibly could need and plenty of turf space for stretching, rolling out and cardio. I don’t often write reviews but Absolute Power is the best gym I’ve ever worked out at.
anna
This is the best gym in Brooklyn! The facility is clean, great layout, positive energy and very professional staff. Good vibes and lots of equipment to choose from. The owner is super passionate about fitness and very knowledgable and helpful. i highly recommend!
John Lee
I joined Absolute Power a little over a year ago. The owner takes really good care of the space (old equipment is constantly being replaced by new equipment), and he treats everyone very respectfully. The staff is also very friendly as well. A great environment, especially for beginners like myself.
Benjamin Clifford
This is a great gym, one of the best I've used. There are people at all kinds of different levels here, the members and staff are friendly, and the owner/management is always looking for ways to improve the space. Highly recommended.
Karen Aguiar Abud
Love this gym. I am in the neighborhood and couldn’t be happier. Good equipment for my needs and never too crowded. And the hours were amazing for me. Open to midnight 4 days a week!!
Richard He
It's hard to find a gym with as good of a selection of free weights, machines, cardio equipment, and barbells as Absolute Power Fitness.
The staff and owner are always around, and you can tell that the owner is constantly investing in new equipment. 5/5 definitely check it out if you live nearby.
John Enright
Great place! The gym has all of your needs regarding weight lifting and cardio machines. The staff is super friendly and the owner is good people. Would definitely recommend to others!
Lianne Duong
I’ve been to dozens of gyms across Manhattan/BK (Equinox, Crunch, Blink, etc.) and Absolute Power is the one I’ve stuck with the longest because the staff treats you like fam, there’s no pushy selling atmosphere or crazy policies, the membership prices are super reasonable, and they have everything you need and nothing you don’t. From a lifting perspective, this place is a gem. It only really gets crowded around the 5-8p rush hour. Also, you can tell that AP cares about making improvements and they listen to their members- new equipment/machines get added or replaced regularly. Overall happy to support this place!
Mackenzie Bronaugh
This place is great. The owner really cares about his customers experience and hires high quality staff that just want you to have a good time and won’t shove any sales down your throat. It’s clean, had an good edge and I feel safe. Everyone goes above and beyond there. Been there for 2 years now. Ton of equipment and the opened up and upstairs for more room for cardio, floor space. I always feel welcome 🙏🏻
Diego S
1- All equipment needed in a gym.
2- Hands down best management I have seen in a gym. There is constantly someone making rounds and organizing/cleaning. They are paying attention to every single detail making it a great experience.
Anthony Milone
I’ve been coming to this gym for over a year, and I have nothing but great things to say. This is not a “fitness center;” rather, it’s an old school gym that is tough to find nowadays. Want to grunt and throw up weight before/after work and get a sweat? If so, this is the gym for you. The equipment might appear to be outdated (to be clear, there is zero rust on any of the machines/dumbbells, etc), but they operate efficiently to the fullest extent. They have dumbbells ranging from very light weight upwards to 150-200lb. If you’re trying to free squat, they have three racks, safety pins, and obviously barbells. You can deadlift in one of the racks as well. If you’re looking to deadlift/RDLs/clean and press, they have two platform rubber mats. Mirrors are everywhere. They have great accessory equipment, such as bands, jump ropes, etc. They also have a rower and air dyne! The gym also has a cardio area on their second floor filled with treadmills, stairmasters, and ellipticals. Also, they have a turf area designed for stretching, core workouts, jump rope, etc. The hours of operation are GREAT; opening up at 5:30 AM is huge for me. The membership price is VERY REASONABLE. As it relates to the staff, Miguel (the owner) is the absolute man. You’ll see him usually throughout the day walking around the gym, greeting members, and making sure the gym is organized and hazard-free. The support staff members are incredible and I cannot say that lightly. Not to mention the gym also has a smoothie/shake station…their protein shakes are delicious, and they don’t use cheap supplement brands. I highly recommend this gym for your training and physical goals.
Ebony Kennedy
Great neighborhood gym. Recently expanded to include two floors, with the top floor mostly for cardio equipment. Miguel, the owner, is SUCH a sweet and earnest guy. Highly recommend.
William Bottini
The neighborhood gym, with a great staff and lots of equipment and even more good energy. This place is a real welcoming community and I’m lucky to workout here. Highly recommended!!
Jacob Vizek
Wonderful old school gym. Easy to get a great workout. They also have protein shakes and a great staff. Highly recommended for strength training.
Jack Schramm
Absolute Power is my platonic ideal for what a gym should be. No nonsense, plenty of plates, great machines, friendly staff. Can't recommend it enough!
Eddie Dunn
One of the best gyms in the world. Absolute Power Fitness is committed to helping members lead healthier, happier lives in an affordable way. I love this place.
Carla Leo
A great gym, I enjoyed my experience working out here. There is a feeling of community and the owner is friendly.
Delia Nuñez
I love this gym!! I’ve been coming here for about 4 months now and it’s wonderful!!!! There is always everything you need, it’s really lowkey - what more can you ask for
Jun Zhang
I've been coming here for over a year. Best gym in the area and the staff is very nice. Highly recommend checking it out
chuck
This is a third revised review, due to the many improvements that have been added. Absolute Power Fitness is conveniently located, near the Grand Street L station, a few stops from Union Square. It fills a void for gyms in the NYC metro area, for the value it offers at an affordable price.
You won’t find spotlights or floral bouquets, but it’s not a dungeon cave, either. After searching and searching, I finally found what I was looking for: a serious, no-frills but fully equipped, moderately priced gym. In fact, I've been reunited with members I previously knew from Richies, and even from a Gold’s gym that closed years ago. We've all ended up here.
Serious bodybuilders work out here, but there's a harmonious blend of diverse ages and body types in a supportive atmosphere. Some of the little things I appreciate, because they do make a difference: a cold water fountain on the same level as the main gym, both cold and hot water in the bathroom, and ceiling fans that keep the air moving year-round, even with the air-conditioning.
I’ve been here for over a year, and I only recently saw one out-of-order sign on a machine. That sign showed the specific date when an ordered part was scheduled to arrive. I’ve never seen that kind of accountability in any other gym.
The cheerful, energetic maintenance workers are a great team, zooming around, cleaning, putting back weights/equipment. They're the best I've ever seen. The front desk staff are courteous, intelligent, and competent, with customer service skills mastered down to a science. How often do you find that in a gym? If you check the reviews of other gyms, as I have, the answer is somewhere between rarely and never.
There is now a new upstairs area, with extra cardio machines, and a very nice smaller gym. I am told it's supplied with everything a trainer would need for working with clients who desire a more private setting.
On the main level downstairs, we now have added cable stations, new flat and incline benches, a new Nautilus Smith, a Glute Drive, flat, decline/incline barbell benches, and more. They’re all rock solid, comfortable, and easy to adjust. Now I can finally make an exact adjustment of a decline barbell press to my height, with no jiggle or give, which really helps my form. Several stations have new covers and cushions. On top of that, there are two stretching areas, one of which is its own separate room, supplied with mats, BOSU balls, kettlebells, rowing machines, bands, etc.
At APF, you’re never pressured to work with a trainer. However, you will probably want to work with them, sooner or later. After a free hour-long introductory assessment, you're entitled to three more sessions at half-price. I worked with Miguel Ojeda, who, in the assessment, identified a muscle imbalance, and in the next three sessions, transformed my approach to working out. If I believe the positive comments coming my way, I'm getting results. He continues to check in with me regarding my progress, and my routines, like a true mentor. I am very much looking forward to working with him again.
The members are exceptionally polite and generous toward each other, in wiping off benches, sharing equipment, trading tips, or just having a good time. I am making new friends on a continual basis, so from a social standpoint, I always look forward to coming here.
All of the above is no doubt thanks to the cheerful and energetic efforts of the manager, Miguel, who runs his business hands-on with obvious pride and care.
Cool graffiti artwork lines the walls and columns, including inspirational quotes from philosophers and athletes, including this quote from Eleanor Roosevelt: "You must do the things you think you cannot do." Well, at APF, you have the setup, the support, and the atmosphere that will help you to go beyond what you thought you could do.
Maya Case
This is my favorite gym I've ever been to! The owner clearly really cares about it, and is always putting in work to make it better. He's also super friendly, I've never been to a gym with such an engaged and kind manager/owner. All the staff are great, too. The atmosphere also feels very community-like and not like a corporate gym. Would highly recommend!
Zeehan Rauf
This gym is fantastic! Truly feels like a neighborhood gym - the staff are friendly, flexible and always available to help. The gym is always trying to improve and maximize its space. It's also affordable and the patrons have never bothered me either. The best gym experience I have had so far!
Sri Rao
This was my local gym and it was the best gym experience I’ve had. Customer service was amazing and everyone who goes there is super friendly. I made a few friends who had the same schedule as well, really nice community. No nonsense gym, has everything you need and all the support you want. I’m super skinny and never once felt out of place or intimidated. Cannot recommend this place enough if it’s close by. Only reason I left is because I’m leaving the country!
Daniel Okin
Best gym membership I have ever had. For the money, Absolute Power is by far and away the best gym I have ever had the pleasure of being a part of. Even during peak hours it never feels overcrowded. Excellent smoothie and beverage options. Miguel and the whole Absolute Power team make your workout experience second to none!!!
Brian DeWitt
When I moved to East Williamsburg a few years ago I knew I wanted to get back in the gym. Joining absolute power was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Everyone there is super friendly and welcoming and there’s a great community energy throughout this gym. I’m moving out of NYC and without a doubt will not be able to join a gym as great as absolute power, but that’s life. It just makes my time there that much more special. Can’t say enough good things about this place and the owner/ staff. If you want to start a gym membership do it here and you won’t regret it.
Alex Bounds
Good gym at a reasonable rate. It def gets swamped with the 9-5 crowd after standard work hours during the week but that's the case with any gym. If you go during off peak hours it's pretty manageable and there's plenty of equipment for whatever workout routine you're into
Christopher Wood
Really like this gym. Staff is super friendly, owner is great, and the members are there to get things done. This is a gym for people who have things to do, not fool around. Which isn't to say it's filled with meatheads — it's not — but people have lives and jobs and want to work out in a nonjudgmental environment, not preen. It's a good vibe.
Maureen Contestabile
Miguel is the most accommodating owner I’ve ever encountered. He genuinely cares about his gym members, he tends to each individual to ensure their experience is beyond satisfactory. Absolute Power makes going to the gym not as scary!
Chris Pulliam
I have been coming to Absolute Power Fitness for years now and can’t say enough about the place. The owner is always welcoming, knows you by name, asks you how he can improve the gym and make your experience better. From time to time he even gives out free workout drinks. The gym isn’t brand new and pristine like an equinox, but they have everything you need to get the job done. I would much rather support this local business than go to one of the chains in the area.
Yassine Hamdouni Alami
I love this place. Would've kept going here as long as possible if I had not moved away. The staff is extremely kind and helpful, and the facilities are kept clean and have everything I needed in a gym. Highly recommend.
Liam Gluck
Awesome gym! Miguel is great, makes you feel like it’s a neighborhood place. Down to earth and laid back. Price is right for solid equipment and weights.
Luis Salcedo
Stayed in Williamsburg for my vacation and decided to go to this gym for a workout. The staff were super friendly and the day pass price was very reasonable. The facility itself can be a little cramped but very manageable. The equipment is older for sure but if you are an old school lifter, you will absolutely love the vibe here. I loved the décor on the walls and they had a great variety and assortment of equipment to use.
Overall, if you are in the area than this is a great gym and highly recommend it!
Daniel Friedman
If you’re looking for a neighborhood gym where you’ll be treated right by good people, this is it. Equipment is exactly what I needed and they’re always expanding/improving. Can’t say enough good things (and the price is right)
Akhil Katta
Great neighborhood gym that makes everyone feel welcome. It’s very affordable with lots of space and equipment and rarely too crowded to be able to get a good work out in. The owner and staff are very nice too and do their best to always improve the gym and make it a great experience for everyone!
Carter M
Absolute power is my favorite gym I’ve ever signed up for. Tons of selection of Free weights, machines, and cardio options to fit whatever your fitness goal is. Staff is incredible
Michael Li
Solid no-frills, local gym. Has all the equipment you’d need at a good price. However, the incredibly friendly staff and owner are what sets this gym apart. Even when I cancelled my membership early because I had a free gym at my office, they let me cancel hassel-free, thanked me for my business, and let me finish my month out. It was a surprisingly pleasant gym cancellation.
Cindy Tran
Great local gym with attentive trainers. The owner is always around, very kind and also always attentive to anyone who comes in.
emily kemp
The main thing I like about this gym is the vibe of the patrons they're all very respectful and focused. Second thing I love is that I can do barbell workouts in like 5 different places and I never feel like I have to wait for things- can't tell you how valuable that is to me!
I will also say this gym is cleaner than the other gyms I've been to in the area, and the machines operate better, they also have more variety of bodybuilding machines!
Kara Ryczek
I love this gym. The staff is very friendly and was very helpful. It is a good price for the area and for what it offers. It has a great protein shake bar. I highly recommend joining if you are considering it
Kate Fallon
This place is the best. Like “look no further” the best. I was picky in my final selection for a daily gym and I 100% made the right choice. Miguel, the owner, is so friendly and truly loves what he does. I’m so happy to support a local business that’s clean, stocked with the best equipment, and has great staff. It’s busier at the popular times, but I’ve still never had a problem finding the equipment I need.
Maggie Abbott
I love Absolute power. They have been my neighborhood gym for the past 3 years. I just started doing training sessions as well! The staff is so friendly and it is immaculate! They just opened the upstairs which helps with space! Best decor as well. I look forward to going to the gym now!
Mairin Daubert
APF is way more than a gym - it’s a family and a community. The staff and other gym goers are kind, friendly and supportive. The facilities are always clean, there’s ample equipment and they are always taking feedback from members as to how to improve their experience. Membership prices are beyond reasonable. There’s also a smoothie/shake bar at the front desk for pre or post workout nutritional needs. I’d workout here for the rest of my life!
Lamees Jad
Best gym in NYC! All the staff is so personable, especially the owner Miguel. Very clean and weights are always put back. Brand new tuft and all machines are new/in great condition. Everyone is so kind and it’s never too packed, even at peak hours.
Can’t speak highly enough of this gym!
Sonali Deshpande
This is the best gym I’ve ever had a membership to. The owner/staff are extremely kind and look after their members’ needs, and there’s a good array of equipment and great energy all around. Highly recommend this place.
Michael Dronne
Great gym at a great price. Never a problem finding cardio equipment and everything is clean.
Clemens den Exter
Absolute Power Fitness has a great neighborhood community with regulars and Miguel and the staff are great! The first day I walked in Miguel noticed I didn’t have a clue on where to start and he showed me the ropes and gave me some great tips. I use to hate going to the gym, but got hooked to working out at Absolute Power Fitness! Highly recommend!
Liam Rice
Best gym in Williamsburg and highly recommend to anybody that is considering. Equipment and facility are extremely well maintained, never over crowded, and has amazing owner / employees that take care of their customers just as well as the gym they run.
Nicholas Marciano
Want a gym with a better machine/ weight/ barbell/ anything collection than a soulless corporate spot with local owners that treat you better than your own family? How about at a price that’s more competitive than every gym in the area? This place is an absolute gem of brooklyn and deserves every good word. There’s a reason it has so many high reviews, I could write forever about how fantastic this place is. They know your name, they care about your health and workout, and I swear it seems like they put every single dollar of revenue back into constantly improving the gym week after week.
Treadmills? Brand new with built in screens.
Row machine? They have two.
Hip thrust machine? They got one.
Squat racks? Three.
Every band, mat, accessories that’s out there.
Smoothie bar? Yup.
Hell even the bathroom/ locker room/shower is immaculate and brand new.
Promptly stopped fees during the Covid shutdown no questions asked. Always there if you have an issue.
I’ve referred over 7 people to this gym, half of them women out of the fact while they do have the weight and bars for the muscle heads they manage to maintain a space that feels safe and functional for women and men of all fitness levels as well.
This place puts other gyms to shame in every fathomable way. If I ever move, I don’t think I have the heart to even cancel my membership out of principle to support such a positive great space to work out.
Mavis Everett
Honestly the best gym I've been to in New York. They have 3(!) squat racks and lots of bench presses, so you're almost never waiting for equipment that's usually high in demand at other gyms, even during 'busy' times. Reasonably priced, & not soulless like more prevalent chains - the owner and staff are super nice and helpful. This is a great neighborhood spot where you can get in and out if that's your thing, or kind of meet the regulars if you want more of a community vibe. Plus, there's every machine and piece of equipment that you could ever want.
Raymond Chiu
Due to the pandemic, I canceled my NYSC membership and found this local gym near my home. This gym has everything you need, whether it’s body building or power lifting and everything in between. It is the definition of a raw and local gym, with Brooklyn graffiti painted across the walls to fully represent the neighborhood. All the members are courteous of one another, doing their best to keep things clean and re-racking weights.
The owner Miguel is awesome and really cares about his members and his gym. Him and his whole staff makes everyone feel welcomed and it shows with the mutual respect the members have for them.
I have tried all different gyms from Planet Fitness to Equinox. Absolute Power Fitness is a great gym for all types of gains at a very reasonable price point. The shakes are amazing too - you gotta try the Cracker Jax!
Greg Hunt
I joined this gym to use their upstairs aerobic equipment, and it was a great decision. The staff is super friendly and helpful, there is always open gear and equipment, and it's fairly priced. Definitely recommended as a neighborhood gym.
Linda Brewer
Friendly staff, clean equipment, convenient location, great customer service. Can’t ask for much more in a gym.
Gianna Yarull
Great gym! You know the gym is for real when everyone who goes there is SUPER BUFF. It has every machine/equipment that I need for my upper and lower body weight training. Many cardio machines as well. Love the vibes in this place, great music, everyone is friendly, respectful and attentive. They sell protein smoothies. Good membership price. The equipment is well maintained and clean too. Lots of space and mirrors. Bathroom is no big deal but its always clean and has lockers. And lastly, its never too busy that you have to wait in line for a machine or a set of weights 10/10 would recommend.
Katie Gehris
Great gym! Very clean and very welcoming. Staff and owner are fantastic and always helpful. Highly recommend and hope they open another location soon :)
Orla H
Most chilled out and pleasant gym I’ve been a member of. Really nice staff and super friendly and helpful manager. Well-equipped and great vibe for working out.
Natalia Wierz
Absolute best gym in New York hands down! Loved the two years that I was able to be a member. Miguel makes sure that everyone is comfortable and the atmosphere is fantastic, always playing great music. Has every machine you need & plenty of cardio equipment. This gym has everything you could ask for and it’s not overpriced like the competitors. If you’re searching for a new gym to join, this is it. Thank you for everything!!
DJ Chao
I’ve had more opportunity to better myself than I think i ever have before because of all the pieces in place at APF: the equipment, the staff, and the people. This gym is simply the best. They bring in new, quality equipment faster than i can test out the old stuff. Everyone in the staff is like family and VERY much treat you as such. The atmosphere and the people who fill it are just incredible. Been coming here for close to 2 years now, and even if I left the area, i would still make commute and come back and lift at APF.
Patrick Callahan
Great machine selection, a price you can't beat, and a super nice management team. I love being a member here and would recommend it to anyone.

I am 35 years old and have been regularly going to gyms for almost 20 years. I went to this gym for 3 years but moved away. This was hands down the best gym because, unlike every other gym I have ever experienced, this gym is not a megacorp interested in generating the most profit off of you. The costs of this gym are transparent, and the owner - Miguel - will openly discuss them with you. Also, the equipment, the people, and the energy is A+. There is a very warm community-type feeling in the gym. I'm gonna miss it.
FWIW - I alternate between running, rowing, and lifting. I do not power lift. There is a good selection of equipment (free weights and machines) and space. Also, stuff is quickly replaced if it breaks. In the 3 years I went to this gym, only 1 time was it "too crowded" for me to do the workout I intended that day (I have a specific machine circuit I do, and I don't like waiting around.. so I ran instead). Literally 1 time. I usually went between 7-9pm weekdays, which is close to peak time.
Last thing I'll say.. the rest of the staff is great - Nina, Andy, and Aiden are all attentive and seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs. The fact that I know their names is amazing since I am generally a quiet and introverted person.
I hope this review was helpful.

The gym is an absolute neighborhood gem. Very friendly staff, good operating hours, clean / well maintained machines. They even added a new cardio floor recently with new cardio machines and enlarged the sq footage of the space.

I’ve been a member for the past 2ish years and this is my favorite gym that I’ve ever been a member of. You’re not getting anything fancy here but there’s plenty of free weights, machines, and cardio equipment for all.
Facilities are kept clean and the staff is always extremely friendly. Generally speaking good gym etiquette from all members and everyone is respectful of one another. Only at the busiest times have I ever had to wait for a station to open up though pre covid working in with someone else’s sets was the norm. Moving this month and will miss coming here.
William Macfarlane
The intensity shared by every member here makes it easy to focus on your workout. There’s even a rule to stay off your phone while on a machine. The dumbbells are never in the right order, but it usually doesn’t taken more than 30 seconds to find the ones you’re looking for. Expect to hear some grunts from heavy lifters.
Luisa Bayona Otero
I moved here from WA state about 9 months ago. There I went to the same gym for about 3 years, and I wanted to find something that was not corporate but rather a small business and where I could feel comfortable and welcomed as I used to in Seattle. I found Absolute Power Fitness here in Brooklyn and I loved it. The staff is very welcoming and always happy to help. The owner, Miguel, is always making sure you are enjoying the gym and asking for your feedback to make it better. Music is good, equipment is great, the gym is always clean and they are following all covid regulations so you feel safe to train here. I am now moving to NJ, and I just wish there was an APF there, I totally recommend it for anyone living in Williamsburg.
Elizabeth Le
Amazing gym for the locals of East Williamsburg. Miguel is a great owner who really cares about his customers. I always feel welcome here and the staff does a great job of keeping the gym together. I highly recommend this place if you live nearby. They have everything you need!
Mayur B
Recently joined this gym and the experience has been wonderful. Great staff/management and lot of space to carry out different styles of workouts. Highly recommend!
Rachel Jacobi
I love this gym! I left Blink/I joined during covid & am so much happier here. They have anything you need, are non corporate, & are very friendly!
Lauren Butler
This gym is seriously one of a kind, and I feel so lucky to have found it. A real sense of community, high quality classes (Nina is phenomenal!!), affordable prices, and Miguel, the owner, genuinely cares about the clients and knows you individually. There’s no other gym like it. I can’t recommend it enough! This was one of the best things I found throughout my time living in Williamsburg, and so much so that I even continued commuting to it after moving to Manhattan - just to give some perspective on how worthwhile going there always is!
Maria Castillo
The best gym in the neighborhood! When you walk into a gym and everyone is actually working out and not on their phones- you know something is right! Amazing owner and the best staff. Equipment for everyone and super duper clean! Always good energy and good vibes.
Pat M
Been going to Absolute Power Fitness for 5 years. Probably the best thing about Williamsburg. APF has the close knit feel while having everything you need for whatever type of workout you're doing. The recent expansion to the upstairs area has been awesome for some spaced out cardio. Honestly I am going to miss this place once I move out of the area.
Erica S
Best gym i've been to in Williamsburg, hands down! Owner & staff are very welcoming. It's always clean & things are in its place! #1 reason why I stayed here was because they have all the gym accessories stored in the corner for everybody to use, No longer do i have to go searching & buying extra stuff from amazon haha win win!
Vanessa Porto
Absolute Power was a great gym for the time I lived in Brooklyn. The owner, Miguel, and the staff were always super friendly and the gym was always being updated with new things. I hope this gym opens a second location in Manhattan one day, I would gladly become a member again. :)
Abigail Murphy
As a life time gym rat I love this place! I can always manage to find whatever I need to complete my workout. The staff is friendly and helpful! It's also more than 50% less than my former "fancy" gym which didn't really offer anything more than I am getting now. I am in and out! Done with my dreaded workout! Super easy and accessible!
Sidney Huang
Here is why I always prefer neighborhood gyms over chain gyms: the owner, Miguel, take a personal interest in the happiness of his patrons and has continued all three years I've been a member to make improvements and keep things up to his high standard. If a machine is broken he fixes it immediately, and theres plenty of bands and kettle bells and weights for everyone. He's also remembers peoples names and says hi and chats whenever he's around, which is often, and the staff he hires is always super nice.
Coming back after the pandemic I noticed that the gym not only got a deep cleaning but the heavily used machines have been moved around to intersperse with less used machines to ensure distance from other people, which I noticed (as observed from a treadmill in the back) works really well. They also offer masks and hand sanitizer if needed.
For the ladies, the clientele is mostly body builders (who only look at them selves :) and women, I've never felt weird about wearing short shorts or doing squats, even when its crowded. Highly recommend this gym to anyone who lives in the area!
Laura W
Great gym and amazing hours! The owner actually gives a damn about this place. The entire gym is recently updated (like weeks ago). It’s a gym people, not a spa retreat. There are lockers, bathrooms and a shower. A bunch of equipment for all your needs, squat racks and tons of weights. As a female, gyms can be a bit uncomfortable but I feel 100% safe to do as I please here. The staff is always gracious and they willing to make you a smoothie or just say hello. The pricing is very fair and the owner asks your opinions on ways he can improve. It’s nice to have someone who actually understands that their business succeeds if the consumers/customers are happy! Who would of though such an easy concept could be so complicated for most! They even offer some Zumba classes in the separate room where you can do stretching unless you’d rather stretch out in the new area he just built up by the entrance. Never any complaints and I’m happy to call this my gym.
Kazzandra Cahill
Best gym in Brooklyn! It’s very clean and close to home. You have everything one could want in a gym. Great staff, the owner Miguel is very nice and everyone is very welcoming and friendly.
Annmarie Pristera
Staff are great, lots of equipment (I've never waited more than 5 minutes for a rack), and the owner actually comes around and checks in with you regularly. Way better than any of the overpriced, boutique, fad fitness studios popping up all over the boros
Sean Robinson
This gym is awesome. Owner and staff genuinely care about their gymgoers and foster a great workout environment. Highly recommend.
Alicia Dell'Aria
I love working out here. It's cozy and feels private, never too full but full of the right people. Plenty of equipment to challenge your workout and not get bored. The owner, Miguel, is beyond kind and professional. I have never had the pleasure of experiencing such a personable, responsive and understanding gym owner. Having a place that makes me feel this way has significantly influenced my fitness journey in a way that has allowed me to reach above and beyond my goals.
Erin Havard
Best gym in Brooklyn!! I’ve been a member for just over 2 years and absolutely love this place. It has everything I need, always clean, and friendly staff! Highly recommend :)
J G (JG)
I went to Absolute a few weeks ago to try a day pass and it was so worth it! The gym is meticulous, has old school machines which a lot of us appreciate, and the staff was very informative and professional. This is definitely a gym I’ve been looking for that has literally everything a bodybuilder could ask for! I can’t wait to join!
Charles Andres
I’ve been living in Williamsburg for 2 years now and I am so happy with my choice of Absolute Power Fitness as my gym. I also cannot get over how much the ownership cares about the gym. Broken equipment is always fixed promptly, constant upgrades (new equipment, classes, trainers, shakes, etc.), owners and staff are super friendly and always make sure you’re satisfied. It’s definitely not as flashy as a lot of gyms you’ll find, but everybody is here to workout and workout hard. Oh, and membership is very affordable. I wholeheartedly recommend Absolute Power.
Caitlin Collins
The best gym. Reasonably priced, all
the equipment and machines you could need, always clean and everyone is super friendly. A gym i look forward to going to each morning!
Eli Gelernter
I was a member for a year and I really enjoyed this gym. It is nice and the people are friendly. They recently did even more renovations so they really are taking care of the gym and pride themselves on their non-corporate gym setting, which is extremely refreshing. I am moving so I won't be going to this gym anymore, but I enjoyed my experience to say the least.
Dave Speranza
Great gym and great ownership! Miguel personally called me to tell me he was freezing my membership during the pandemic, and when I moved out of the neighborhood, he took care of cancelling my membership, with no problems.
There is tons of room in the space and there tons of machines and weights for whatever kind of workout you like. I will miss Absolute Power!!
Marcella Garcia
This gym is a great gym to go in and get your workout done. It's well stocked with whatever you need. Also, the staff is welcoming and the owner is super great. Two separate times where I needed help on figuring out the machine since I was new to them I had the staff politely help and show me the basics. If I wouldn't have moved from NYC I would've stayed here.
Morgun Watson
Very good gym, clean, not crowded, good equipment, and a very good pump!
Kate Elder
This gym has everything you need for a solid workout in a straightforward and unpretentious environment. There's tons of equipment and I've never had to wait for a machine, and the place is always clean. Very reasonable monthly/annual fee, and a great location for the East Williamsburg community. Absolute Power is my gym of choice!
Raymond Knudsen
Best gym in city. The people are genuine and aren’t trying to rip you off like many of the chain gyms. Highly recommend!
Robby Murphy
This gym is very reasonably priced for being a non-chain gym. The staff are very friendly. It is not too crowded at any given point. Conveniently located
Gilberto Hernandez
I worked out at Absolute Power for years and I loved it. Clean gym, professional staff, and the owner Miguel is a great guy. They have TVs (so I can watch sports while I workout), treadmills, tons of machines, an open workout area, a dance studio / gym room, and a lot more. I highly recommend this gym. Thanks for the great workouts!
Grace Boroughs
Great gym! The owner is very kind and accommodating. All the equipment I can want and never a wait to use what I need.
Mike Deming
This gym is amazing! They've made a lot of recent improvements, adding a turf section that's great for stretching and abs. The rest of the gym has everything you need in terms of equipment. Miguel is really flexible and cares about his members. I'm unfortunately moving out of Williamsburg, but I can't recommend this place any higher!
Zack Ward
When I first moved to Brooklyn, I tried out multiple different gyms. I live closer to several other gyms, but decided to sign up here because it has everything I need, the equipment is nice, and the staff is incredibly friendly.
I've been training here consistently for nearly a year now, and I've noticed tons of improvements since then. The gym has gotten a new owner since I've joined who has gone above and beyond to improve the place. If you've been here before and didn't like it, I'd suggest you give it another shot. I can't see myself switching gyms any time soon.
Olivia Hensal
This gym is one of a kind - Miguel (the owner) makes everyone who walks through his doors feel like family and there's a great community feel to this place. It's always clean, the classes are awesome, and they have all the equipment you need. I'm so happy to have found this place!
Ezra Baydur
Been going just under a year and finally rating it with five stars. The management genuinely is invested in their members. Please keep up the incredible standard with your staff.
There were a couple of holes in the walls a few months back but the management immediately got involved and refurbished the place, even bringing in new machines. The equipment gets the job done and the price is hard to beat.
This place deserves its high rating and I hope it maintains the friendly gymgoers as it continues to grow.
Carlos de la Lama
Amazing neighborhood gym with clean facilities and all the equipment one would need (including workout classes). The staff is great and the gym has a great positive vibe that keeps you motivated throughout your workout. Definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for a gym in this area.
Donna N
I love this gym! Miguel, the owner, and all the staff are fantastic and so friendly and helpful. It’s got a great vibe, feels like a part of the community, and all the effort being put in to make it Covid compliant is really impressive and appreciated. So lucky to have it in our neighborhood!
Denisse Estefany Mendoza
I’ve been a member at this gym for two years. I absolutely love this place. They have vast equipment and every year their variety grows. They have everything from cardio to elliptical, from free weights to machine weights, even Pilates equipment. They also offer smoothies there that are pretty delicious.
Employees are always friendly and the owner is usually around making sure everyone is satisfied and helps people struggling trying to understand how to work the equipment(like I was).
The place is also beautifully decorated with inspirational quotes that actually help push yourself through your workout. The crowd at the gym are also very nice people. There’s no douchiness there, everyone is there to get their work out in and is friendly. And it’s also very clean.
Overall, 100% would recommend to anyone considering it. Trust me, this gym is what you’re looking for in the city.
Kevin Kowalski
Great gym overall to reach your goals with great ownership and staff to compliment it. Owner is very personable and makes everyone feel welcome.
Carolyn Fergus-Callahan
I live almost a mile away and could probably find a gym that is closer to me, but I would never because Absolute Power is THE BEST. Miguel, the owner, always greets me and asks if there’s anything I need and his staff is just as friendly. Membership is affordable, it has all the equipment I need, it’s all in good shape, and you can’t beat the atmosphere (the graffiti art makes the whole place feel so cool). My favorite place!!!
Seth Berkowitz
Been looking for the right gym for a while since my gym in Astoria closed a few years back... this is by far the best gym I have been to in years!!! Staff is amazing... equipment is perfect and well maintained... COVID-19 is no issue as they are always cleaning non stop so I feel real safe!!! Just all around a great atmosphere to get the perfect workout in!!!
Michael Callahan
Absolutely love this place, and look forward to coming every day. The atmosphere is great, has any machine or free weight you could need.
Above all, Miguel the owner goes above and beyond to make sure everyone feels welcome and comfortable at his gym. Great guy.
Gabriel Vargas
Really good gym! Lots of equipment for any necessities. Great customer service, helpful and nice to talk to. If you are in Brooklyn I highly recommend it
Julia Abrahams
Best gym I’ve been to! The owner and staff are all extremely nice too. Highly recommend!
Lexy Liu
This place is amazing. Low price and tons of equipment. If you want local grungey gym type feel with tons of fitness trainers and bodybuilders, this is the place for you! I would move back to Brooklyn in a heart beat because of this gym. Plus the people working there are super nice and the owner is always asking me how he can improve the place. I miss this gym sooo much. Love them!
Daniel Weiss
Three reasons APF should be your local gym.
1. Direct communication with the owner. Miguel is the only gym owner to proactively, and directly, ask patrons what he can do to improve the gym. A quick story: I asked (on the legit hottest day of the year) what could be done to boost the AC during peak hours. I kid you not — the very next day Miguel showed me where he had already installed two high powered oscillating fans and where he intended to install more.
2. Workout atmosphere. People come here to get a workout, period. As far as I can tell, everyone is focusing on themselves. No attitudes, harassment, or judgment. It's an old-school gym environment that chains can't match. And believe it or not, the motivational slogans spray painted on the walls actually worked to boost my morale. I'm as surprised as anyone.
3. Workout variety. For a relatively small space, APF can accommodate every type of workout. Plenty of treadmills, ellipticals, and other low impact machines for cardio. Round bumper plates and platforms for deadlifts. Three squat racks. Open space for jump rope and HIIT workouts. All the cable machines, and even a turf area for whatever you'd use a turf area for!
Bottom line: Check it out.
George L
I love this gym. It is clean, has a good buzz and plenty of equipment. The owner is super friendly and the price is right. Look forward to my workouts here. Keep up the good work.
Michael Menichini
Absolute power fitness has been a like a second home to me for the past 2 years. I love it! Very clean facility, new equipment, awesome staff, and a great environment. Join this gym and you won’t regret it!
Darina Guseva
love this gym, been a member for a year. has enough space, great machines, weights, awesome stuff
Dan Laine
This gym is a good value. My only complaint is that the staff could do a better job making sure that weights are organized / in the right place. Never really had an issue with it being too crowded.
Pickelhaube05
Been with this gym 1.5-2 years. An Excellent neighborhood gym. Knowledgable staff, quick equipment repairs, clean, and affordable. My bro recommended me this gym and I would do the same, highly recommended for anyone from beginners to very experienced. Wish I could give it more stars!
katie pellegrino
Miguel has done a fantastic job of revamping this place. Been a member on and off since 2007/8? and it’s LEAPS and BOUNDS from where it started. Plenty of cardio and strength training machines and free weights. The floor room is usually not crowded and there’s ample equipment to do your thing. The staff is super friendly and they keep the space clean. The bathrooms/locker room is kind of sparse, could use a little Love, but at the price, you really can’t beat what you get at AP. 👍👍
David Atwood
Dope gym with awesome people! They are making more space as well. Good rates and really good shakes as well. They are clean and keeping safe during this time as well.
Kel M
This gym has everything for a great workout. I started my membership about three weeks ago and love coming here. The front desk staff always greets me when I come in and are there to help you for any questions you may have.
Veronica Hurtado
Absolute Power Fitness offers a great and cozy environment , friendly and very helpful staff. They have new equipment which is super great. The gym is clean. The front staff are always greeting with a big smile.
Sivan Salem
This is a great gym, especially for the cost of the membership - you have all the equipment you need, and the gym has been newly renovated. Great local neighborhood gym, friendly staff, and literally everything you need in terms of weight lifting/cardio equipment!
Karthik Sundaram
Great no-frills gym for those looking to lift, do cardio, or even attend a class. Enough variety of weights and equipment that they have everything you need. Also it’s clean, which can’t be said about all gyms in NYC. Cheapest rate in the area, a must-have membership for those in the area
Alex Levenstein
I don’t even know where to begin with how wonderful this neighborhood gym is! I just moved here from New Orleans and was looking for a gym that felt like home. If you’re looking to workout in a welcoming/clean environment, this is your gym. The reason why I chose this gym was because this has everything I am looking for. From running on the treadmills, the rower, lifting weights, locker room, to a few workout classes, etc. I also wanted to be surrounded by those who felt like they were pushing themselves. I really believe this gym has already brought so much to me. I suggest anyone to come stop by for themselves.
Jack Cohen Martin
If you are looking for a gym- not a “fleetness center” or a club but truly a gym then this place is for you. Absolute is fully equipped, clean and well maintained- allowing you to focus on your workout with minimal distractions.
Jia Hui Wang
Was looking for a gym in the neighborhood and came across this gem. It has everything you need and isn’t one of those huge chains. Very nice staff who aren’t trying to sell to you like other gyms. Naturally I signed up for a years membership :)
Grant Herman
This gym is good for what it is worth. It is only 30 dollars a month and the facilities are ok if you just want to lift weights, which in theory was perfect for me.
The biggest issues are:
1) No one puts back the weights after they lift. So there are free weights scattered all over the gym.
2) The locker rooms and the overall facilities are disgusting.
3)The biggest issue is that it is 79 dollars to join and 99 dollars to terminate your membership.
All in all this place is solid if you live close and are on a budget. However, it is worth the extra 20-30 dollars a month to go to a better gym.
Taylor Levy
Absolute Power Fitness is a great place to work out. It has always been good, but they have done a great job improving it over the years. It has everything you need with a nice low key neighborhood feel.
anthony lanci
Great neighborhood gym very helpful and friendly staff. Affordable and not too crowded. Plenty of equipment that you don't have to wait. Great gym If you like to lift also separate room for classes with instructors.
Nick Wiegand
A great no frills neighborhood gym that has the price and personability that other big gyms lack. The best part is the people, everyone from the staff to the patrons are really kind and down to earth. Equipment and machines galore, this place can't be beat.
Autumn Haac
I understand all the poor reviews, but at the same time, you get what you pay for: The gym yearly fee is $400, and if you sign up during the right time you can get it even cheaper. For someone that wants to get in, and get out, this gym is perfect. Is it the most cleanly gym? No. Are some of the machines broken? Sure; But, it's $400 and I have yet to have a problem. I'm not going there thinking I'll get a nice hot shower and a towel after, I'm going to lift weights, do cardio, and go home. From my experience the staff is incredibly friendly and willing to help - that being said, I have had difficulty with some of the 'regulars' at the gym, who do not work there, telling me what to do, etc. (It's nice, but after the fifth time, leave me alone, thanks.) This is a small gym where you go to just work out, nothing more. I enjoy going because most people there have the attitude of getting in and getting out.
Harley Henigson
Great local gym. The owner cares about the place and is consistently doing things to upgrade it. Good rates, equipment in good shape, rarely overly crowded, and friendly staff. Not much more you could ask for.
Angelo Carlo
One of my favorite gym's in Brooklyn - always clean environment. Very solid employees. Would definitely recommend
Sybilla Stasiewicz
Probably the best gym I’ve ever been to - great staff, nice atmosphere, fine equipment. No one gave me hard time when I had to cancel the membership. Miss you guys !
Samantha Lagville-Graham
This gym is a hidden gem!! A perfect neighborhood gym. The owner is super friendly and accommodating, and genuinely wants you to enjoy your time. Would give it 6 stars if I could!
Max Izotov
Awesome gym with everything you could possibly need at a great rate. Staff is super friendly, just like all the people there. The nutrition bar is fantastic as well!
Myles Cooney
Great gym! Literally has every piece of equipment you can ask for, helpful staff, and other hardworking people that motivate you to work harder in the gym. If you're looking for an affordable gym in Williamsburg, look no further.
Patrick
Best gym in the area. The staff, the equipment, the price, the amenities. It’s really unbeatable and thankfully lacks the corporate nonsense seemingly unavoidable with all other NYC gym chains. Do yourself a favor and join up.
Doug Cohen
Excellent gym for someone who lifts. Good benches, a few squat racks, lots of free weights, and plenty of machines for isolation work. They have been improving the place a lot since I first signed up a year ago.
Maria Stylianoudakis
APF has everything you need to work out at a reasonable price. They also offer a few fitness classes as week if you're looking to mix up your routine- all of which is included in the low monthly rate. If you're looking for a clean gym with exceptionally friendly staff (the most accommodating I've ever experienced) this is the spot. You won't be disappointed!
Phan Le
The perfect neighborhood gym. I've been a member for over 2 years. Clean, all the equipment you need, affordably priced, free wi-fi, never too full, and friendly staff. Highly recommended.
Raymond Knudsen
One of the best gyms in Brooklyn. Clean facility, great variety of equipment and friendly staff. Pricing is solid for a gym in NY. Highly recommend!
Owen Rucker
Awesome gym. Great atmosphere, equipment and people. A++
Jonah Kupperstock
Such a great local gym! Amazing staff, great vibes, and all the workout machines that you could possibly need. I highly recommend this over one of the larger corporate gyms
Jon Denton
Clean equipment, friendly staff, with an un-pretentious attitude (all at an affordable price). Exactly the type of gym I was looking for!
Kath L
Awesome and affordable gym, even better owner. Solid & new equipment with lots of options… get a membership here! I purchased a year it’s 100% worth it
Thomas Price
My favorite gym in New York, quite possibly my favorite gym in the world. I love every single aspect about this place and I plan to work out here for as long as I live in the neighborhood.
Christopher Buckley
This is a great gym. It's local, affordable, and clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. It's never too busy. I never have to wait for equipment.
Myles Turney
A very good and affordable gym for someone looking to lift or do cardio. If brand new amenities are what you care about, spend more money someplace else. However, if you're serious about weight lifting, it suits the bill just fine.
Natacha Diels
This place is awesome. If you want to pay your rent in membership fees, join any other gym in NewYork. If you want a place to work out that is affordable and has great people-watching, go here.
Sean Flynn
Been going for a year and love the staff, easy to get to, not crazy lines to wait for things typically - renewed for the next year
Lewis Taylor
Run with passion and love, people first. Reminds me of complete body gym in Chelsea - an old school fitness community. All body types, ages and skill levels. Lots of the same faces. Clean and easy going.
Devin Pope
Love this place. Legit gym for legit lifters. Never packed, always ready for your true workout. 3 real squat racks, 2smith machines, multiple leg presses, body building equipment and dumbells that go to 175lbs
Katie Kussow
Facility has everything you need in one place, the hours make it so you can hit the gym no matter your schedule, and to top it off the team here is genuinely INCREDIBLE.
Nicholas Gennuso
Classic old school gym. Affordable, awesome owner, and all the strength training and cardio equipment you need. Great vibes inside + covid-compliant as well! LOVE IT
Jon Revere
I saw this spot on google and said to myself,hey!this gym looks nice.sure enough,I was right.the people at the front desk were pleasant the members were nice and the owner(cool guy)was like a host.by the way they have an excellent smoothie menu as well!👍I look forward to returning to this spot! …
John H
Great gym! I've been here three years and have always had a great experience! Miguel and the staff are courteous and the place is clean.
Tony Klochkov
Great neighborhood gym. The managers and front desk always smiling and friendly. Gym is clean and all the equipment is in great condition.
Hannah Goodman
Awesome neighborhood gym! Never too crowded, good energy & super nice staff
Pelayo Alvarez
Its really the perfect Gym the owner and employees give their all to make it comfortable for ALL levels. They even had their pride Tshirt. Now i just have to come more often 😅 …
Frank Li
This is a great, down to earth gym. Plenty of barbells and dumbbells. Never so packed that it’s impossible to get a rack. Management is super nice and understanding, if you ever need anything just ask.
Odell Purifoy
Great local gym, owner is present and always nice, willing to listen to suggestions. Recent renovation made the gym look much better. Cool atmosphere.
Justin Pertierra
Great neighborhood gym at an affordable price. Responsive, helpful staff staff and well maintained equipment. Haven't had a problem since joining
Yulia Makhonina
It’s a pleasure going to this gym. The best option in the neigborhood: good selection of equipment, not crowded, convenient hours and very friendly staff. Cool local place in the heart of Williamsburg. Value for money.
Craig Kleila
Great gym with modern equipment. Staff and owner are really friendly.
Paige Cano
Really solid free weight section. Nice turf area with kettlebells, swiss balls, bosu ball, etc. Aerobic room has bodyweight cardio equipment you're free to use (floor ladder, jump ropes, battle rope) and is big enough to do your own thing as well. Cardio machines are diverse and not just a bunch of treadmills (row machines, stairmasters, stationary bikes, arc trainer). Only qualm is the climate control isn't the best, but you're there to sweat anyway, right?
Lula Morales
Its challenging, it’s clean, and the cherry on top is that it feels like you are walking into a friends place every time you come in.
Charles E. Dyre
Unpretentious gym, friendly staff, reasonable membership prices. Pretty small space but no lack of equipment
Jeffrey Tuarez
Awesome place! Ive been going here for a long time and it gets better and better. They have alot of cardio machines as well as the free weights. The front desk is also helpful and friendly as well. Definitely would recommend it to a friend
Rosey Ott
Great neighborhood gym! Has everything you need, clean and well maintained equipment. Friendly and helpful staff.
Tyler
Great (newly renovated) neighborhood gym that has character. Definitely not another corporate globo-gym. Friendly patrons and a responsive owner. Highly recommend!
Sid He
Best value among all the NYC gyms I've ever signed up for. Feeling lucky to have this gym in my neighborhood!
Laura Michelle Davis
Such a great local gym. Small but has everything you need. Miguel the owner is wonderful.
Ali Sullivan
The owner is super friendly and makes you feel right at home. They have all of the equipment anyone would need to do a full workout, and the price is great for what you get.
Josh Rose
Great neighborhood gym: affordable, with responsive staff/ownership and plenty of equipment. Well worth checking out if you live in the area.
Emanuel Smith
Owner Miguel is engaging with members and runs a clean gym with a wide variety of equipment available. Would definitely recommend
Sal Suriano
Best gym in Brooklyn. Great environment, clean, and everyone is friendly. A+
Chris Marshall
Was a meme bet here for 2.5 years before moving, great neighborhood gym. Never too crowded and the customer service is fantastic
Emily vargas
This was an amazing gym for me. Too bad i had moved kinda far from it. And Miguel made it very easy for me to cancel my membership. Really appreciate it. A+!!
Casey Lee
I can't believe I stuck with Crunch for as long as I did when this place was down the street from me. Half the price, less competition for squat racks, and you're supporting the local business of one of the nicest dudes ever.

I don't know about the Gym, but the building is bit weird because on top of the gym there is a bar. No offence but I think it's not the perfect combination.

Kelly Gentile
This gym is fantastic. It has everything you need for a great workout - no matter the type of workout anyone prefers doing. Reasonably priced membership too. The best part is the personable owner and friendly staff. I recently had an issue with my membership and not only did I get a fast response, the owner reached out to me personally, talked me through the issue and rapidly solved it, putting me at ease. Businesses sometimes face hurdles, but they don't always put the customer first when handling it. This one did. I can't recommend this gym enough.
connor baker
Love Absolute Power - awesome gym, great staff, can't recommend enough. TY Absolute Power folks!
Kyndall Ramirez
Can't express how much I loved being a member at Absolute Power Fitness - it's more than just a gym - they truly care about their people. The staff is awesome and the owner, Miguel, makes you feel right at home. If you need something, they've got you.
