NYC Lifters

I keep hearing amazing things about lifting and the results people have gotten from it. I'm really looking to get into it but I can't seem to find any affordable gyms to join. Do guys have any suggestions?

I go to Retro Fitness.... I love this gym.. it is only $20 a month and it has everything you need for lifting. They have a few locations throughout the metro area.

I say try all! Go to the website and get 3-4- and sometimes 7 day passes lol see which ones you like, if you let them know youre testing out a few gyms they'll be more inclined to cut you a deal on the enrollment fee...but $10-20 is pretty standard for all gyms

You can try getting a membership at one of the public gyms owned by the NYC Parks department, it's like $60 for half a year or something like that. I used to go to one when I was younger. They're not glamorous but they get the job done.

i dont live in NYC anymore but when i did i was a member of NYSC for awhile. it was on the pricey side but i loved that they had locations all over and pretty decent hours so i could work out near work and home.

this isn't true for every location, but the main ones i went to had squat cages.


i'd say try out the gym first before joining because you want to make sure they have squat cages, benches, oly bars and weight plates

Does anyone in NY even lift?
