Blink Fitness Yonkers

"Blink is always clean. The gym is crowded most times, making it difficult to complete a workout. The equipment is new and kept in good condition."

"Hi! The gym is very clean and the staff is super friendly from the moment you walk in. Unfortunately, I stopped going to workout by myself because the members hawk the machines and nobody tells them anything. So I decided to to set up personal training sessions. Unfortunately, the way the personal training is set up is ineffective and unsafe. I have been training for the last three months with the absolute best trainer I have ever had and that is why I keep my membership. For Marisol! The issue is that while I pay $760 per month to train with Marisol, the $15/month members consistently interrupt our sessions by getting in the way of MY workouts to use the equipment we are using. At every other gym, the personal training session is isolated with signs that indicate session in training. At this gym, I witness my personal trainer get harassed by customers almost on a daily basis! As a woman, I am appalled. As a paying customer, this is unacceptable as it takes away from my time and also defeats the purpose of going to the gym which is primarily to get those “happy endorphins” going. I have tried speaking to the “manager but she is never available. Please get a retractable belt stanchion and get a “training in session” sign! This is all you have to do to avoid issues and keep your “paying customers”."

"I have been going to Blink Fitness in Yonkers for years, but my recent session with Phil, one of the trainers, was truly outstanding. As an 84-year-old, the recent layout change at the gym left me feeling a bit disoriented. Phil was very patient and supportive, helping me navigate the new setup with ease. He took the time to make sure I felt comfortable and confident in the new environment. Phil even made a program for me to follow without charging me any money. His guidance was clear and compassionate, making a big difference. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and caring trainer, Phil is the one to see. Highly recommend!"

"Love this gym. Great equipment, clean, and front desk staff is friendly and helpful but not a fan of the one female personal trainer who kicks people off of machines just because she wants a private area to train people. I've seen this woman kick a man off of the Smith machine mid-set because she had a "client coming soon". I also asked to use a bench that she clearly wasn't using but she refused to let me have use it for a few reps because she was "using everything in this area". Meanwhile, I have a bad back and use the bench for assist. All the others were taken and she didn't even use the bench the entire time I was there. Instead, she used it as a way to block herself off from the freeweight area and the Smith machine at the front of the gym. She really creates an unfriendly, unsupported environment for gym goers during the week. Not seeing her on weekends is a relief because then we can work out in the area she claims. Meanwhile, all the other trainers there are kind, helpful, and know how to share the space AND equipment. I hope management fixes this because it's really annoying to watch and deal with when we're all paying members. Her behavior is unacceptable."
