Jeff is an amazing trainer who really listens to your goals and sets up a plan to crush them! He is…read moreso knowledgeable about fitness, nutrition, and just the body works. He travels to you at your home, gym, etc... and he has all the equipment to do the workouts if you dont have it so dont worry. His pricing is affordable. You won't regret it!

At the age of 52, six months before my wedding, I decided to gift myself a trainer. Working out in…read moreone form or another has always been part of my routine, and I have always been fascinated by nutrition and habitually have tried my best to continuously learn as much as I can. I looked around and contacted several different trainers, Jeff responded before anyone else. Although I looked at a few others, I picked Jeff because I just liked him. It was an excellent choice. He is dedicated, he knows so much about wellness and more importantly he is always learning. I can ask anything about nutrition, lifestyle or training and if he needs more information, he finds out and then shares with me. The thing that matters most is that here I am, four months past my big day and I still train with Jeff. I am also so happy to say that my husband was so impressed with what he saw and with what I told him, that he now trains with Jeff too. I have been so impressed with the way in which Jeff has modified everything to meet my husband where he is. A very different place than where I ever was, and the results are already visible. Not only does my husband look healthier, he clearly feels better too. It has been such a positive experience for both of us.

While you don't get so many fancy things here, there is enough variation here to get a workout. I…read morepersonally needed 1.5-2 bottles of water here per workout. You get a different HIIT type workout per class you choose. A few of the classes are stretch classes but even those will feel like an intense workout for me. You may get to use plates, a battle rope, the usual weights, jump rope, a mini "track" where you bend down and get back up running back and forth, and semi-gym bike you must balance yourself on. Visiting many fitness centers including this one has helped me appreciate what is here more. My body acted weird with the 12 workouts I had here as I surprisingly never lost weight except for one time when I had 2 workouts on a Thursday and a Saturday, I temporarily suddenly lost 9 lbs. I couldn't do workouts harder than I did as I would get dizzy and I have been checked for these physical reactions already and I am thankfully fine. My stamina rebuilding has been real slow. I do wish there was some short breaks planned because I get worn out and start to hate exercise with the constant pressure to move. Every gym and almost every trainer I have been with has been like this though. You have to try to pace yourself completely :( This is a good place for getting a quality workout for your money's worth.

I joined in September after about 10 years on the sidelines of health and fitness. I had major…read morephobia in gyms with trainers always worried about my out of shapE body being unable to perform the excercises. Two of my friends joined and I followed them there. I love that the routines vary every day and we use all different types of equipment as our coach observes and corrects form and suggests alternatives if needed. The location is impeccably clean and organized and also offer juices, smoothies and meals to kickstart your fitness goals. Financial options that are affordable also help me tremendously to stay on my path to improved health. Check it out!!

Taylor from Peace thru Strength has changed my life in the 3 short months that I have known her…read more She has the incredible ability to be a motivating, supportive, and tough as nails trainer, and she has that whatever-it-is that has me hooked on more more more exercise! Before this, I had never in my life been able to find a fitness class or gym membership that worked well for me. As a stay-at-home mom I really needed something unique to help me get back into shape after my second baby. I am not comfortable leaving a newborn baby with gym babysitters and I don't want to pay for a private babysitter just to exercise. After much research, I found THIS! Moms on the Move is a cardio/weight training class that allows me to take my baby with me to exercise, and it's during preschool hours so I don't have to take 2 with me! Plus I get to chit-chat and have interaction with fantastic women while I exercise. It's not just for moms with babies either, or moms, or babies. Peace thru Strength offers every type of fitness class, personal training, and group exercise you can dream up and with class times that fit anyone's schedule. One of the best parts is that it is PAY AS YOU GO! No monthly gym membership that you have pay for regardless of how many times you exercise. Plus, you'll be hard pressed to find better prices in the area. I know I sound like an advertisement. I'm not - it's just that awesome.

I have been going to PTSfor a variety of classes for about 3 months now and I wish I had found…read more Taylor and her staff sooner!!!! Taylor is amazing, motivational, and pushes me to keep going -you can do anything for 30 seconds- thru every class!! She knows what challenges me and makes sure to push me thru those workouts while being attentive to others in the class. Who would imagine the day when I enjoy burpees. I take spin, trx and impact at PTS and LOVE them all. There is a great variety of classes and the times they run- so much to choose from sometimes I have to take 2!! Thanks so much Taylor for helping me fit into my wedding dress and feel amazing on my special day!!

Power Plant Gym - LIFT members squatting

I've been going to Power Plant Gym for the past 17 or so weeks as part of their LIFT program, which…read moreis focused on powerlifting movements (bench, squat, deadlift). Since I've joined, I've gained muscle, learned better technique and made some really awesome friends. I love that everyone there from their incredible training staff to the lifters themselves are knowledgeable and helpful to anyone that walks in the door. It really does feel like a tight knit family that is welcoming to everyone willing to put in the work, from the feel at the gym during classes to the chili cookoffs and Phillies games together. In fact, just this past weekend we drove 2 hours down to Delaware just to watch some of our friends from the gym compete in a strongman competition and it was a blast! We've brought numerous friends for drop-in workouts and they've all walked away impressed at the camaraderie and top of the line equipment that owners Katie and Brian have for their gym. Whether it's strongman, powerlifting, Olympic lifting or cross fit style workouts you are seeking, you can find it all at Power Plant, and then some. My wife and I actually participate in Spartan races and we love that there are numerous rigs, ropes, assault bikes, and sandbags to help supplement our training.

I did not have a good experience here. On the positive side, the equipment is quite good. There are…read moredeadlift platforms and two nicely built power racks. There are some bench platforms and plenty of chalk. There is also strongman equipment such as Atlas stones. So, whether you are into Olympic lifting or powerlifting or strongman training, there is ample equipment for you. The problem is the people. As long as you are putting money into their pockets --- as by paying for training, the trainers are attentive. So, I paid somewhere around $500 for some personal training, and the advice and coaching was solid. The problem is that once you stop paying, it is evident that the trainers and the owners could care less about you --- never mind that you are paying the monthly dues. So, after I finished with my personal training sessions, I was lucky to get a nod of acknowledgement--- from the owner all the way down to the staff. And if you ask for something as simple as a spot, they act as if you are somehow imposing. I might as well have been at Planet Fitness. Call me old-fashioned, but I feel that when you pay, you are entitled to at least be treated civilly. Finally, the unpleasant atmosphere was too much, and I canceled my membership. Summary --- good equipment, but poor people-skills on the part of the owners and employees.

I have been a member of this gym for a little over a month. It's crowded and I'm the only person…read morewho wears a mask, but I guess that's just common everywhere. To be honest, this gym doesn't feel very friendly to women. Most gyms o have joined have had little nooks where people can do squats or jacks without being in the middle of the gym or surrounded by 300 mirrors. Who tends to use these spaces? Women, in my experience. I don't want to squat on display and everything is so open. Secondly, the well meaning personal training manager who did my intake. I kept saying I wanted to work out but take it easy at this point in my life; that I've gone too hard in the past and it wasn't sustainable. He was a little pushy on this. I do think he was well intentioned but he talked a lot about calories and showed a percent fat body chart to me and told me my percent body fat. This wasn't offered as an option, it was more like "ok now we're going to measure your fat and I'm going to tell you how much fat you need to lose." As someone with a history of disordered eating and also just a woman hearing from men about my body all my life, I found this really messed up and it actually haunted me for a few days. It's nice to have someone available to let me know this information, but automatically giving it without asking is problematic. Price is also meh. All in all if there was a planet fitness closer, I'd definitely choose that over this. Class offerings are limited, and when you're paying 3x planet fitness rate, you expect a higher vibe. No higher vibe here, just lots of broing out. 3 stars because they at least have all the equipment I need.

Place has fallen down hill very quick over the last year. One of your go-to machines are down?…read moreDon't worry it'll get fixed in 3 months. They have a ton of rules posted about guest passes then they let anyone in for free. Not sure why I pay I could just walk in. It's getting dirtier every day. One girl cleans and does a good job but does so at like 10am. Why can't they do this when the gym is shut down? Or maybe more than once a day?. Wish the gym would suspend or revoke their memberships to those who can't figure out where the dumbbell they were using goes or those who just completely say F it and don't re-rack their weights. They have no bands. Their clips for the cable attachments seem to either break or get stolen just about every day. They have 3 basketballs. The pool has been closed for a while and I've never seen one person working on fixing it. Working here must suck. Over the past two years I haven't seen one person work here longer than 6 months besides maybe a salesman or two. I have no idea who's in charge of this place. The trainers don't last here for more than a month either. If I didn't live walking distance away I'd go to a different gym.
