Really like this gym! Equipment is good and a lot of variety (just wish there was a hip thrust machine, but there are two smiths that are usually open). Good crowd size, i never have a problem using the machines I need. Locker rooms are super nice also with good saunas in them. The only thing I wish was different was more turf space to do things across it, but if u dont mind using a hardwood floor the studio room is completely empty when theres not a class so I will sometimes go in and use the space to do things like farmers carry, jumprope, lung walks etc. The front desk staff and other ppl that use it are really friendly and nice. I would say in the afternoon crowd its about 85%+ male and 10-15% female, in case that matters to u, but I havent noticed any creepy guys at all! read more

Hands down the best gym I've ever been in. A friendly, welcoming atmosphere with a knowledgeable and caring staff with excellent training at all levels. It's spacious, well ventilated and well lit. The equipment is new and well maintained. The gym is very clean. There are exercise classes, spin, yoga and individual training daily. The prices are very reasonable. Hard to beat! read more

Nice clean gym with everything you need. The employees always greet me with a smile. The equipment is kept in good condition and always serviced. The bathrooms are clean. What else can you say about a gym? There aren't many other options in the area. I do not take classes so I cannot comment on them. read more

Love love love this gym. The place is clean. The locker rooms are well maintained and the soap and shampoo so wonderful. I feel as if I have entered a spa. Really love the classes. Ally is the best instructor. She makes the class fun and one gets a great work out. read more

I've been a NitroFlex member for over six years now. I can't recommend this gym enough. It's spacious and clean. If a machine is not working it is fixed or replaced quickly. The equipment is well maintained and they are continually adding and updating things throughout the year. The classes are phenomenal and the gym offers a wide variety. Beth, Ian, and Heather are some of my favorite instructors- if you get a chance to take one of their classes- do it! The instructors are patient and encouraging, while they push you to get the most out of yourself and the workouts. *** Covid-19 update *** Wow! The gym has gone above and beyond during this trying time. During lockdown, they live-streamed classes everyday. When Murphy allowed groups of 25 outdoors they started classes at the park and then transitioned to the gym parking lot. A large tent was added to bring gym equipment outside while providing their normal class schedule. The gym reopened inside and the covid protocols are met, providing a safe space to workout in. Since group classes cannot exceed ten indoors (right now), the gym fitted the large tent outside with turf and heaters in order to provide its members with a safe alternative. NitroFlex continues to go out of its way for their members and the community! Check this place out- you won't be disappointed. read more

This is a great place to work out no matter your fitness level as there is something for everyone. Stretching, yoga, Pilates and a host of high intensity classes. What I like about it is I can do something different everyday, and on most days can take 2 or even 3 classes that incorporate, stretching, fitness and then core exercise classes. Recently, they added a strength component to their spin and row classes making them more of an interval workout which combine a higher heart rate with lifting weights. The classes are high tech, incorporating a computer screen to keep you on track, they are never the same, the music is great, and the instructors are approachable, motivating and very knowledgeable. read more

After Xercise closed down in Chester a couple years ago, there's been a lack of gym options in the area. Nitroflex fills the gap, and THEN some. The facilities are wonderful, and the staff as always friendly and helpful. They have a lot of different membership options so you can test the gym out for a day, or even a month, before signing up. If you sign up after your first day, they waive the $15 one-day pass which is awesome. They also include a free personal training session with membership to help you start out. You can tell the machines are new, and it really makes a difference in your workout. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars out of 5 is because the class schedule provided is somewhat misleading and some of the instructors seem like they could be a little more experienced. I wish more classes were later in the evening (7pm and on) since I don't get home until 7 and one of the reasons I joined was for the variety of classes they offer. But I understand that Chester area is catering to a lot of families and people who may not work out at those later times, so it's understandable. Overall, great gym in the area to fill a much needed void. If you're looking for a place in the area I would check it out read more

Fabulous gym. Perfect size, staff is super friendly and supportive and always working out when not working. The babysitting is so great with kids- had my niece go (was her first time in a kids care and the staff was wonderful!). Classes are challenging and teachers are great. So many options and new combinations- definitely up to speed with new and up awesome workouts. Locker rooms and showers are small but beautiful. No need for bigger ones- they do the job and have two two people saunas in each locker room. Cafe options from local restaurant, outside tables, sitting area upstairs, and a full massage and facial/etc area! Awesome spin bikes- real riders. Hot yoga les mills and even a surfset great class. Even have teen night on Friday with themes. Highly recommend. read more

Nitroflex Gym - Some equipment. Free weights, machines, and cardio! - Gyms Near Me - Chester, New Jersey

Full disclosure I have never worked out here. I live on the same street as their trainer Chris and he must hit leg day HARD! He is so swoll that he has to drive less than an 1/8 of a mile for coffee, peels out and does over 40mph in a dense residential neighborhood. The only responsible explanation is he's so sore from leg day he can't walk or control his legs while driving. He must be super proud too because he advertises for this gym on the back of his F150 while driving like an a-hole. So if you wanna get super swoll and endanger the neighborhood kids sign up for training with Chris at Nitroflex! read more

I've been a member of this gym for over a year now. I joined because it's basically the only gym in the area and about a mile from my job and 9 miles from my house. It's reasonably priced. There are plenty of machines, and it's never very crowded that you have to wait for one. The bathrooms are very modern and clean, there are lockers for your use, but bring your own lock. The women's room has two individual saunas which are a nice touch. Overall the gym is kept very well and modern. The staff is nice, but I don't really interact with them. The reason I didn't give 5 stars is because their class schedule doesn't work with my schedule. They have plenty of classes I would love to try, but are early in the morning (5:15) or later in the evening (6:00). If that changed and they added some 8 am or 5 pm classes it would be the best gym I've ever gone to! read more

I agree completely with Bran R. reviews. The gym is nice, facilities are clean, and has a good amount of equipment, but their staff is not friendly whatsoever. There is one lady at the front who is clearly related to/married to/ or blowing the owner. There is no one on this earth who could keep a customer facing job, in the real world, with the attitude and demeanor in which she conducts business. It is almost as if she feels you owe her something for being in her presence. She has a stupid look on her face that will instantly turn you away, even if you get a quick fake smile. No need to go into anymore detail. Go in and see for yourself. It will be immediately clear who I am talking about, but you will get the same feeling about the majority of the front desk staff. I will not do business here, even if it costs me more money or time to go elsewhere. It is purely on principle. The gym is in a good spot and has something to offer the area. They will not succeed long term if she continues to interact with customers. read more

This gym used to give a discount to Chester First Aid members but has dropped it. Xercise gave free membership to EMT's, police and firemen. Nitroflex also charges a hidden fee every March 1st (which they won't mention) to all members of $39. Look for it in your credit card charges. They say it's for equipment, but they certainly make enough profit to pay for the little equipment they actually need to replace. It's just extra profit for the owner. read more

This is my happy place! I have joined many gyms in my life and this by far is the best! The gym itself and the ladies locker room are extremely clean. The staff is so friendly and helpful. The instructors make the classes fun even when you don't want to work out :) I can not say enough about how much I love this gym. read more

Nitroflex is a great gym not only bc Chester does not have any real places to workout, but it is clean, and most importantly the staff is professional and welcoming from the front desk to the personal trainers... Definitely recommend joining! read more

Been going to nitro flex for almost a year now and I've never been so happy with a business before. Friendly and helpful staff with a great assortment of classes. Pretty clean facility. I even have three kids and the babysitting staff is just fantastic...especially Julia! I always look forward to going to nitro! read more

Absolutely awful gym! I inquired about joining a year ago. I was seven months pregnant at the time but wanted the promotion they were offering. I gave them my cc number over the phone. I then realized it was silly for me to join as pregnant as I was. I never went in to sign the paperwork or finalize signing up. They did charge my account. I reached out to the manager and explained that I didn't think they'd charge me because I didn't come in and sign up. She insulted me and was beyond rude. At one point I actually had to ask her to stop insulting me and just help me in solving the problem. I wanted to resolve it with them rather than go to the bank and file a dispute. She told me I should have known better than to give my credit card number out etc. One year later.... I thought I could look past my first experience because the location is convenient. This week I decided I was ready to join Nitro. I had a few more pounds to lose since having the baby and was ready to do it. I went into Nitro and they three people at the desk told me that there were notes in my file and that I wasn't allowed to join. I was so confused and shocked! I was actually flagged from the gym! The people behind the counter were very nice and handled the awkward situation professionally.They did however tell me that if I want to join I would have to speak to the manager when she is there. So I went in on Monday to speak to her. She was rude again! She did remember what happened a year prior and was clearly angry. She knew that I had written the owner an email after the way she spoke to me. I'm not sure he ever even got my email because it sounded like she got it. I asked her why I couldn't join the gym and she told me "it's not the right fit for you." With a nine month old baby and living locally it was pretty perfect. I asked again why I couldn't join and she just let me know that our conversation was over. I asked for the owners contact info and she refused and let me know that he has many businesses. I guess he has so many that he doesn't care about this one? I have tried to contact the owner multiple ways and he has no interest in hearing customer concerns or feedback. I would NEVER recommend this gym. The female manager is rude and so AWFUL. Just completely not human at all and they do NOT care about the community or anyone who goes into their gym. I feel bad for anyone who works for them. read more

Gym is nice.. Nothing different than any other gym that I've been a member of. The child care workers are very sweet. However, what speaks volumes of this place is the constant attitude. The girls at the front desk are very rude. They have what they call "R.B.F." at all times. Its been like this from day one - manager isn't any different, if anything she leads the pack of attitude at all times. I've spoken with other gym members who seem to experience the same thing as we do. Yay, we're not alone. Lol I will say that they make coming to a gym that you pay (alot) for extremely uncomfortable. It's unfortunate that it's the most convenient place to go, location wise. Once our contract is up we will definitely be going else where, even if it means paying more or driving a little farther. You'd think a job as simple as customer service is a no brainer but guess not for some. I'd suggest the owner invest in some customer service classes for his front desk employees and crack down on their bad attitudes or else they'll be driving a lot more members away rather than reeling them in! read more

I agree with Brian G., S.M., Russ V. and Bran R. One particular girl at the front desk and the fitness director are rude, have bad attitudes and clearly out of their element. Be careful, if you ask a simple question, the two girls will become confrontational and argumentative which I have experienced. This is stereotypically a gym and not whatsoever a club. The members are very nice and friendly and should be treated with respect from all members of the staff. The owner is more committed to the two girls than any of his members. During the time of my membership there was a high turnover of fitness instructors, cancellation of classes and loads of negative energy caused by management. The gym is being run unprofessionally and with very little understanding of the demographic of the area. I am happy not to be a member anymore! read more

Great gym. Signed up in the first pre-opening month and happy that I did. Clean locker rooms, lots of machines and free weights. Good variety of classes and helpful, pleasant staff. Doesn't hurt that I live within walking distance, either. I was also an Xercise member, and switched from Gold's as soon as Nitroflex opened. read more

The classes, trainers, equipment & facilities are fantastic. I continually promote Nitro and have had several friends join. The classes fill quickly even when you're early. My only suggestion when a class hasn't started and space is seemly "filled" is that the front desk speak to the trainer and ask if 1 or 2 more people can participate. If a class has started or is about to start, the member should look for another time. read more

I have been a member since the beginning and I'm very happy I joined. I have seen this gym improve dramatically in the past few months as new equipment has been added and still there is plenty of room to move around. The staff is great ... kind of like the TV show Cheers "everybody knows your name". I workout 5 days a week and from a guy's view I have all I need here - plenty of great machines, free weights, cardio. One of the best things is this gym is bright - big window lets in a lot of light ---- I have been in Gold's and other gyms that were dark and I will say bright is a huge difference ... for some reason it's seems to pick me up! read more

Great gym. Lots of great equipment, very clean, and not too packed. Very friendly staff.

Be very careful if you are thinking about becoming a member. The owner, Steve Tylee, is a loose cannon. He will smile to your face, ask for feedback and then terminate your membership if he doesn't like your feedback. No kidding, that's what he did to me and others. I have attended gyms, clubs my whole life and I have never experienced such unprofessionalism. And he did it leaving a voice mail never responding to my calls or voice mails asking for an explanation. His fitness director and select staff members are also rude, immature and make many feel uncomfortable with their behavior. Not the welcoming you would expect at a gym. This is the perfect example of someone who thinks because people in the area have money he can do what he wants. He is in the wrong demographic. He brings all the stereotypes you worry about regarding a gym mentality to a club environment. It is unfortunate because the members are great and several of his staff are excellent but he and his select few ruin the experience for everyone. Many will be leaving, he is just riding the wave of being new at the moment. They change class schedules without notice or feedback from members and then terminate your membership without cause if they ask you for feedback and you disagree with them. Ridiculous! Save your money and piece of mind by finding a gym/club that treats you with respect and where you can look forward to going everyday. Nitroflex is a loser, big time. read more

Completely agree with Brian g, the front desk women are cold and unfriendly, but the arrogance of the one unnamed black haired women takes it to a new level. I've never felt so unwelcome and so ill received in my life. Her smugness and lack of tact is astounding! I agree, she must be connected to the owner, who in their right might would put her at the front?! I don't go to the gym for fancy shampoo or a wall of windows, I go to workout. The equipment is already showing wear, it is beyond cramped in the weight section, and the mirrors are not even full length by the free weights! I like to check out my form while sitting on the bench and can't, completely ridiculous! The free weights go up in 5 pound increments, at golds they go up by 2 and a half. You can forget about adding additional plates on the smith machine, they don't have any! The spin class and nitro ripped are the only redeeming thing about the place. I can not wait to cancel my membership! What a complete disappointment!!!! read more

I have been a member since January and all I can say was that the switch from planet fitness was the best decision of my life. I was looking for a daycare and a gym which had classes (both services in which planet fitness does not provide) and I couldn't be happier with what I found at nitro. For me, hygiene is a must, especially if my child is going to be around. The daycare is clean and the childcare staff are wonderful with my son, who had never been away from me for very long before coming to this gym. I am super anal about showering at the gym so when I saw the showers and bathrooms here I was more than happy with how clean and well kept they were. The equipment is clean, well kept and up to date. I have tried out a few classes and loved every single one of them! Last but not least, there is not one bad thing I can say about the staff at nitro flex. The staff there are wonderful, polite, helpful and extremely welcoming and I have never felt more comfortable at any other gym. read more
