Trainers near Colonie

“Alexa is an amazing personal trainer and motivator. I started at this gym at the start of the new year to switch up my routine and wanted more intense workouts. I also felt I was plateauing physically and knew I needed a change. I noticed results within weeks with consistency in addition to the workouts I do at home. I immediately felt welcome the second I walked in at Get Fit Studios and it feels great to be part of the family. I highly recommend trying a class!“

“So I’d like to tell you all about the wonderful experience I’m having at WellNest Studio. I’m in my 70’s and for various reasons have not been doing any exercise for over 5 years. I decided to take back my body so I could enjoy the next phase of my life - retirement!!! A friend told me about WellNest and I decided to give them a try. They’re located in the Peter Harris Plaza and are easy to get to from anywhere. I went in to check it out and met with owner Bill. I walked out all signed up for ten sessions with a Personal Trainer, Jason. I am so glad I took this chance. The gym itself is small and personal but has everything you need. Jason patiently listened while I whined about how I haven’t done anything for such a long time and that I had some ongoing physical issues that made me nervous. He developed a program taking all this into consideration and I’m now in the middle of my second ten sessions. I go twice weekly and Jason continues to listen to me whine and at the same time encourages me to keep going. I totally see a big difference in my abilities and am determined to let him get me to a point that I’m comfortable maintaining. I love that the trainers (Jason for me) listens every session to what I say and adjusts my workout accordingly. I can’t recommend this place or their staff enough. You won’t be sorry if you give it a try!!!“

“Highly recommended. As a totally new gym-goer, I felt welcome at the Athlab and had a great experience with their personal trainers, Brandon and Cameron. Joe makes his gym welcoming for all fitness and expertise levels!“

“Orangetheory was the best thing I did to get back into my gym groove. All of the classes are coached by great coaches with amazing attitudes and energies that make it your workout. The only con would be the monthly membership price (this is now disclosed on Orangetheory’s website).“

“This place is awesome. The owner is super nice. Staff is great.Very clean facility. Unfortunately, I moved Seattle.“

“Mechelle Smith is one of the most dedicated person I have ever met,my child is been in her school since the age 8 and she is now 14 and she is a black belt,her way of teaching is amazing.“

“The gym is clean, well stocked with equipment and has a great staff. I am currently working in a small group lead by Justin, and he's fantastic! We're all at different fitness levels, and he plans our sessions with each one of us in mind. He thoughtfully plans so everyone is accommodated in a way that brings maximum benefit for all and meets each of us where we're at. He's encouraging without coddling. I'm accomplishing things I had no idea I could do! Reasonably priced as well. Highly recommend.“

“I recently started attending classes here. Very friendly, patient and welcoming from the get go. Highly recommend“

“Evan is knowledgeable, confident, and unafraid to give detailed lessons. I've watched him deal with those new to fitness and veterans, young and old, man and woman. His ability to handle multiple people at once, yet be focused and give one the sensation of undivided attention is a boon. His programs are designed for each person, to each person, and I can say - do not be afraid to ask him questions.He is the sort to sand the rough away, and streamline effort; so that The Goal may be reached efficiently, and within the parameters of an individual's safety buffer.The gym itself is bare bones - and that, for me, is best. It is simplistic, yet has everything that anyone could need. The atmosphere is independent; small conversations when a workout is done, but no one takes up the floor or wanders: Everyone is there to meet The Goal.I recommend this gym to anyone who is serious about starting fitness, or getting their momentum back.“

“Excellent facility and Chris is one of the best and most knowledgeable pitching coaches in the area. Would recommend to anyone looking to improve their baseball game“

“Couldn't recommend these guys more. The trainers curate fitness plans for every client really geared to whatever that person's fitness goal is, even if it's simply getting into better shape. I've seen people at every level of fitness in there and everyone is always having a blast. The trainers really listen, stress health and avoiding injury, and it's hands down the best gym/fitness experience I've ever had.“

“The instructors include people in our Chen Tai Chi family and are wonderful, caring, and dedicated to their own improvement as well as yours!“

“So glad I found an experienced massage therapist who truly knows, understands and practices her craft. Honestly, after each session I felt better. I looked forward to our sessions because I knew that I would feel relaxed and relieved after each encounter. She has GREAT bed side manner. Her hands are truly gifted. The space is private and relaxing. She does have a dog and cat however, you’d never truly know until you see them. I would recommend her space because it is private and relaxing. If you are looking to be serviced by a massage therapist who knowledgeable, kind and caring look no further. Have a GREAT experience!“

“The training is outstanding. Franklin is excellent about providing a regiment that translates to the sport.“

“The staff is smart, flexible and attentive to a proper development of strength and balance. My trainer, Anthony, is first rate.“

“Brian and his team take your goals and make them their goals, crafting a plan that maximizes your time and effort to give you results. Even though I am a newbie to strength training, Brian always makes me feel comfortable and confident during my session. He is a great resource on health and nutrition and living life at optimum health. In just three months I am stronger, leaner and sleep better. the entire team is great at motivating you to be your best! I love that each session is individually tailored to meet my goals. And... the infrared Sauna is a lovely new addition!“

“As a Physical Therapist myself, I'd certainly highly recommend Dr. Brendan Sullivan as we worked together in post graduate training and I can tell you he has outstanding clinical skills & reasoning, empathy, listening skills, and a drive to consistently grow and challenge himself to be the best clinician he can be to ultimately best serve his patients. He certainly stands out among other PTs and has also been highly involved and essential in advancing our profession. If you need PT in the area, Brendan would be my first choice!“

“Had a wonderful experience with John. He’s extremely attentive and knowledgeable in the sciences of massage and anatomy. He’s the only therapist I trust to carefully consider my unique physical needs with sensitivity, expertise and thoughtfulness.“

“Not your average gym. Personal training, sports medicine, sports nutrition, you just can not get a better place to work out. Meet with them for a consultation and explain your goals. They will make a program for you and adjust it as needed. Amazing place to become the you, you always envisioned.“

“Synergy Fitness changed my life forever. I was always used to going to the gym on a regular basis, but I didn't realize until much later how I wasn't pushing myself enough to lose weight and bulk up. I saw no progress because I lacked the structure and routine to produce hard core results. After a thorough consultation with Synergy, we refined my diet and developed a fitness workout plan specified to my goals and needs. Subsequently, the results were staggering. Synergy continued to work with me to maintain continuity and cope with new challenges. I rate Synergy, their staff, and their fitness centers with outstanding craftsmanship and with notable distinction. Anyone looking to make a life change should come to one of Synergy's gyms now.“

“Took my first intro to pole class and the instructor was wonderful. Very encouraging and helpful. Great place for a workout“

“Nate is great! Was staying at a local hotel where the facilities were less than accomodating, I walked in and Nate took care of me immediately. Great facilities :) PS this is underneath the plaza fountains, head into a building and head down to the concourse level where you'll see the massive signage for the gym.“

“Kevin is fantastic! I will say that I have gone to many private gyms and the atmosphere here is so relaxed. Kevin makes you feel like you have a personal trainer and doesn't push you at the same time. He is wonderful to work with. The workouts are fun and engaging as well. You leave there knowing and feeling like you have had a thorough workout. I would recommend all my friends and family to go and work with Kevin. This is my favorite gym and I will keep going back.“

“I threw my back out for the third time in the span of a year at the beginning of February '24, and my mother recommended coming here instead of physical therapy. I was nervous, but reached out to inquire, and I received a text back within less than five minutes from the owner Nahar. I scheduled a couple private sessions with her, and then began joining the beginning classes at the studio. After attending a few classes, I began to notice a significant difference in the way my back and pelvis felt, and I began to regain a significant range of motion. I've attended various fitness classes before at other locations and always felt like the instructors had minimal training, so they didn't know what to look for or correct and injuries were always a concern, but to say that Nahar is an expert at her craft is an understatement. She knows how every single movement affects every single thing in the body, and is very good at communicating it in ways everyone can understand. I'm looking forward to progressing through the classes!“
