I recently joined Retro and have been thoroughly impressed with my experience so far. The facility is top-notch, with modern equipment and a clean, spacious layout. The staff are incredibly friendly and always willing to help, whether it's with workout tips or just a friendly chat. The only problem I have is the time it closes on the weekend. See, having a job like me when I get off later in the day the gym is only open for a select amount of time in which I cannot fit in a whole workout. Maybe in the near future retro will reconsider their open time frame. Overall great spot with great people.

For anybody that does not know this yet, Retro Fitness in Matawan is under new ownership and wow... The gym speaks for itself. For anybody that has previously worked out in the Matawan location in the past 6-7 years and has not been back- GO GET A FREE DAY. I used to work out there years ago and left because of the shape it was in. And now going back to see the changes, the cleanliness, but more than anything else the atmosphere- everyone is like a family. Very welcoming atmosphere. Thank you to new ownership who came in and really cleaned this place up this year.

Never was a fan of retro fitnesses but this convenient and very close to my house a feed minutes drive new owner ship has made it feel a bit more like a gym not the typical retro style which I like everything is usually working 99 precent of the time lines aren't so long I recommend if you need a good inexpensive short trip to a gym.
