The Fort NYC | Classic Strength Training Program With Barbell 57 West 21st Street, Manhattan, New York 10010

"I love working out on vacation and The Fort made it super easy to arrange drop-in visits during my recent NYC trip. This functional fitness gym does 60min small group training on repeat throughout the day. One coach for max 4 people. I can’t wait to drop-in again next time I visit NYC."

"When I signed up, I had tried weightlifting a handful of time, but had always felt uncomfortable showing that ugly face that comes out when you're fighting tooth and nail to finish the rep. The Fort helped me get over that fear. The folks here expect you to do your very best, whatever that may be, and nothing less. The coaches are there to help you find the fight in you when you feel like you have nothing left to give. There have been countless times where I felt like I'm at my limit, but a few encouraging words unlocked some hidden energy store. It is so freeing to release my inner beast, and I think it was this that made me fall in love with weightlifting. Just after a few weeks of training here, I feel stronger, and I have seen significant improvement in my cardio. Notably, sprinting to catch the bus feels noticeably easier. I love working out here!"

"As someone who could not get into a good workout routine, The Fort has definitely been a great solution for me. The program holds you accountable by signing up for monthly sessions, versus individual classes. I love all the workouts and love how attentive the trainers are. Shoutout to Aaron, Angelo and Will for always making the workout fun while also being the best cheerleaders and pushing me to my full potential!!! I have definitely seen progress in my strength and I can't wait to continue and see what's in store for the future. Love The Fort!!!!!!"

"Over the years, I've tried almost every fitness studio in NYC, but I can say, The Fort really is the best! 4 people max in a class with a trainer, it's really like personal training, with so much individual attention. Possibly even better than personal training, since there is a nice community feel to it. Both the coaches and other members are so encouraging and motivating. I just finished my first 4 months and in those 4 months, I both gained muscle and lost body fat! I've never really done much barbell work before, but love it and am lifting more than I ever have. All the coaches are great, care about form and really want you to get better and stronger. They've definitely pushed me when I didn't believe I could do something, but they knew I could. I can't say enough good things about this place. I just paid for my next 4 months and can't wait to see what happens next!"

"My brother, girlfriend, and I all completed 6 sessions at The Fort recently. It was such an incredible experience. The trainers are all awesome - very warm, encouraging, but also push you to your limit. The training programs are truly rewarding. The classes are very well structured and always have you ending with a full effort. Definitely a must try if you're looking to build strength and be part of a community pushes each other to new levels."
