So as a woman, I personally could not recommend this gym. It is 24 hours and there's not many in…read morethe area but at the same time there's absolutely no staff here. I was told that they are here from 5 PM to 8 PM but I never saw them for the six months that I went here. I had issues where other men which is like watch me as I worked out take pictures and videos of me and follow me around the small space. The first time that I reported it, it was taken seriously from the owner, but the subsequent four times were completely ignored. So I personally would not recommend this and I think management needs to definitely revisit how their text message and call service is being handled. I've met a few of the staff and I do think they are very kind and nice so I don't think they were intentionally ignoring me but at the same time I'm not gonna keep going out of my way to try and get in contact with them. It's also very small and has a small assortment of equipment. So if you're going during peak times, I don't think you'd be able to get in on the equipment that you need. It's also really not in great shape. I had this membership through my insurance we subsidize the cost, which was great, but I personally don't think the equipment both due to the upkeep and the selection really match their usual price.

I have been a member for nearly 3 years. It is a quiet gym where people come to work out. The gym…read morehas a Rocky Balboa vibe that suits its purpose well. People are friendly. It's good that no one films themselves here much. People also dress in respectful gym attire. The only annoying thing is that some customers do not put the weights and hand gear away when done. It is conveniently open 24 hours daily with a key fob. This is a real plus. The monthly fee is also reasonable. Well done to the owners!

The Flander's Gold's Gym is small and equipment is always breaking and not kept clean except for…read morethe filthy yellow rags and spray the rely on the members to use. The spin classes with Steve are the best. He has a lot of energy and I am always guaranteed a good carrion workout. Wish they had more spin classes with Stephanie, she is another great spin instructor. Small Group with Julie is challenging and more of an individual training than one of the Body Pump or Body Combat classes. She makes sure your form is correct and you are using the correct amount of weight which is difficult to do in a larger class. So less chance of being injured. Classes are geared more to the non-working members so it is not easy to try them.

I'm honestly really surprised by the low rating here! I've thoroughly enjoyed my time here. I've…read morebeen here for about a month and I think it offers a great value. I have my gym membership through my insurance so I have a subsidized price. And through that I'm able to access the gym as well as all the classes. I really enjoy the classes and I think the Gym is very well 19. You don't see out of service signs on any of the machines nor do the machines Have peeled leather or worn out seat seats. It's honestly a very well maintained Gym. I haven't had any issues since coming here. And the classes don't get canceled nor do they have to adjust their hours at all. I do think that if they had better hours, you could see a lot more people because ever since Covid things close earlier and this could definitely attract more people if it had better hours. I also agree with some other reviews that they need to turn the AC up. When you first walk in the AC is pretty strong but then once you walk near the check-in desk, the gym floor and. Workout room and the exercise group room it's very very hot. I would definitely recommend that they not to invest in fans but a stronger AC unit. If they did that honestly this would be a five out of five for me.

I've been coming here for about three months. It's a large commercial gym with a good variety of…read moreclasses, including some unique options like barre and bungee yoga, and the instructors are great. The gym has plenty of strength-training equipment that's generally in good condition, although it gets very crowded during peak hours. My biggest issue is that the HIIT Zone classes take up the entire second floor and frequently don't run on schedule, so equipment and space upstairs can be unavailable for longer than expected. I also had repeated issues with class registration and even received an email accusing me of attending classes I never signed up for. I contacted the gym to clarify and never received a response. Overall, the customer service and professionalism are lacking. There's often no one at the front desk, and when there is, employees frequently seem uninterested or unable to answer questions. I've also had a few uncomfortable interactions with male members, including men trying to rearrange equipment while I was still using it. The gym could also be cleaner, particularly the bathrooms and class areas. I appreciate the hours, equipment, and instructors, but the poor customer service, lack of professionalism, and general management make the overall experience disappointing.

If I pay for a membership and you close at 9 and I ask to go tanning at 8:40 I'd expect you get to…read moreuse the bed when I pay 40 dollars a month. not cool

I've been a NitroFlex member for over six years now. I can't recommend this gym enough. It's…read morespacious 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.

Really like this gym! Equipment is good and a lot of variety (just wish there was a hip thrust…read moremachine, 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!

This is by far the worst experience I have ever had with a gym before. I have been wrongfully…read morecharged by the owner of this establishment to the point where I am convinced it is just straight up theft. Over the last several years, every couple months I receive a bill from this establishment that I do not belong to anymore. I have demanded that my card info be taken from their files for years and they have PROMISED me every time I ask them to that it will be handled. I have been charged membership fees when I don't belong there, maintenance fees when I believed I hadn't had a card on file with them in years, and I have even been charged the fee for a random person buying a protein shake while I was in a completely different state. I have photo evidence of literally all of this. And the cherry on top? In the past I have been able to contact the owner to get these wrongful billings resolved. At the moment I am pursuing legal action because I have had hundreds of dollars wrongfully stolen from me at this point. This was literally my favorite gym ever, and they have done nothing but treat me like garbage. The final straw was me reaching out to the owner about another wrongful billing. He ghosted me for a week, and when I sent a follow up text I saw that I was blocked. Update: Mychael responded to my first review claiming that he does not contact anyone via this email. I attached photo evidence proving the contrary. Second Update: The manager Ron told me I "Do not have a leg to stand on" after I brought up serious legal concerns to the customer support email address that Michael told me to contact. Below is more attached proof of this

From what I have seen and experienced they love to pull this cute trick where if you notice a charge and confront them it gets resolved relatively quickly. Then they wait, like a predator stalking its prey. And after a month or two...THEY POUNCE and you, valued customer, get wrongfully charged again, WHAT A DOOZIE. Now THIS is when it gets particularly fun for you, you silly Billy. As you proceed to get wrongful charges over the course of your subscription it gets progressively more difficult to resolve the issue, don't worry you're in luck, you get to try and resolve these issues with Michael and Ron...WOAH. Extremely helpful individuals who, if you're truly lucky, will ghost and block you for pointing out their questionable business practices. After some time you may realize your money is lost to the black abyss, otherwise known as real time fitness, but who needs their hard earned cash when you have a membership to the bestest gym in the whole wide world! This is Gort signing off, love you Michael and Ron Signing back on to respond to dearest Michael, Greetings! Its nice to meet you but its even better to meet me, you have stolen from multiple friends of mine or at least made attempts to. And I must say it is incredibly interesting that you responded to this review that criticizes your business in record time, yet you have no issue with ghosting patrons when they reach out about issues of overcharges which is incredibly serious. I suggest fixing your business model.

Lake Hopatcong is totally no nonsense. Old school weights and equipment. A bit snug if it is a little crowded but gets the job done. No real locker room and no showers. Rockaway is the largest of the three. A bit newer equipment and more spread out. This is the location I visit the most as I go after work, never feel cramped in there. No formal locker room, but there are lockers on the main floor. There are 3 changing rooms and 1 shower room... I can't imagine that being a bit hectic for the before work crowd. Stanhope is the newest location. a bit smalller than Rockaway, but a nice layout. All newer equipment, clean, nice layout. Only been there a handful of times. This location has a formal locker room, with separate changing room and 3 shower stalls in the mens locker room. Cant speak for the womens locker room. Overall, Stanhope is a very nice spot. My only gripe, and it is with all 3 locations are the treadmills. Lake Hopatcong, can barely get them to operate. Rockaway, 1 is broken, 1 has a deck that isn't level and is broken, the rest are ok. Stanhope has the newest ones, but of the 8, 5 had slipping belts that make it dangerous to walk on, let alone try to run or jog, one is super noisy. I get it, these gyms are geared more towards lifting weights and body building, not oblivious to that. A day of maintenance on the treadmills would get 5 stars. Aside from the treadmills, I really like all 3 locations.

Old school gymn; plenty of equipment and free weights. Really like the 24/7 access…read more Only beef is the type and volume of music. Owners don't seem receptive to altering either. My rating is 1 for noisy environment and 5 for the gymn itself. Averaging out to an overall 3.
