In addition, lack of knee motion was causing back problems, which had me in knots every morning. I am pleased to say that after two years of core, glute, and hamstring work my Knee is 90% and my back is nearly 100%. In addition, I went from being able two do six body weight pull ups to 6 pull ups with 53 lbs, have gone from 18% bodyfat and 182 lbs to 12% bodyfat and 194 lbs, and am much fluid and flexible than I was (even with too many hours at my desk). All this was done on 3x per week, with diet modifications but no fasting or extreme diet changes. Highly recommended. If you put in the work, you will get the results with Chris

I've always had really bad lower back pain that would sometimes incapacitate me for days or even a week. His training has strengthened my back and adjusted my posture which helped to eliminate the problem. I am in better shape now than when I was in my 20's! Chris is an excellent trainer but is also a really amazing person. i am in no way an athlete but thanks to Chris, I look & feel like one!

The Y was just there for convenience and little random programs (circus, after school, toddler sports). HOWEVER....here in Saratoga the YMCA is a culturrrre. We didn't get the hype at first until we actually joined. What a complete 180 from what I had envisioned in my head. Every possible thing is going on at this club-Swimming, 2 levels worth of gym space, 4 specialized gym spaces, a ton of activities and clubs--yes this is our 2nd home now. On top of that, the value you get for the family membership is beyond worth it. So excited to finally take the leap and join the Y. The facilities are clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the community is so welcoming.

In…read morethat time, the staff has become like family--genuinely supporting me through personal and physical goals with compassion and consistency. My children have grown up at this Y. My son started his first job here nearly a year ago, and it's been a transformative experience. He is encouraged, recognized, and valued in a way that's helped him grow with confidence and pride in his work. It's rare to find such a positive and nurturing environment for teens entering the workforce. Both of my children have participated in the summer camp and sports programs. The attention to detail, the care, and the personal connections the staff make with each child are unmatched. They are always greeted by name, with joy and familiarity--it truly feels like family welcoming us every time we walk through the door. A special thank you to Kristie and Jenna, who have gone above and beyond from day one. Their presence has made a lasting impact on our family. Through difficult personal challenges over the past five years, this YMCA has been a steady source of peace, encouragement, and community for us. The facility is always clean, friendly, and full of opportunities for personal or family growth. This isn't just a place to work out--it's a safe space, a support system, and a vital part of our well-being. We are deeply thankful.

This is not like all the CrossFit hype and gimmicky gyms out there, this is pure physical improvement, strength and preparation. The group training classes are energetic and can be very challenging if you push yourself, but the beauty of the workout is that you can take any of the exercises at your own pace. I loved that people of all physical levels can be in the same class and really get a great workout. Additionally, their Krav Maga self-defense offering is the best upstate NY has to offer. Marc D. is a former Army Ranger and has been training law enforcement, athletes and people of all ages for a very long time. He truly is an expert in his craft, not to mention quite a funny, personable guy. Their active shooter training program over the summer with the Saratoga County Sherrif's department was incredibly informative and I obtained many helpful tips that I can quickly apply in a life-or-death situation. If you want to transform your body, as well as, learn the best self-defense training out there (i.e. Krav Maga), definitely check out K2Strong.

Krav Maga is not a "pretty" martial art...it's practical. It's an Israeli system that focuses on street fighting skills and realistic, life-threatening situations (which you certainly hope to never be in). They also have fitness classes that focus less on the self defense and more on getting in shape. Either way, if you're a regular here, you'll get in shape. There are plenty of classes to choose from so any schedule can be accommodated.
