Colosseum Gym

Fantastic experience: Good aux, good machines, chill employees

Fantastic experience: Good equipment and nice staff. You're able to hit every muscle in this place. Your friendly neighborhood gym. It's also not generic radio music; big plus if you forget your headphones

Fantastic experience: I love this gym, I highly recommend this gym for people who want to begin their workout journey! This gym has a very welcoming atmosphere and the front desk staff is very kind. Makai gave me a great tour and answered many questions I had about the gym programs! This gym has me excited to begin my fitness journey!

Negative experience: I called the gym 20 times, no one ever answered the phone.. I went to the gym and no one was there to help.. very disappointed...

Negative experience: The owners and front desk staff are scammers and the gossip and judgement from the so called "Trainers" is ridiculous. The locker room facilities are filthy and the ridiculous hike in prices are not warranted for what this place presents.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. The staff is so friendly and they look out for their member's well-being and safety. It's really reasonably priced for two week long memberships if you're only in the area for a short visit. I see so many of the same people working out here every year when I visit home for the holdiays. It's inspiring to see everyone grow when I'm away. Always excited to go back the next day. Also their leg machines are on point. So many options that it feels overwhelming sometimes. Remember, don't skip leg day.

Fantastic experience: All there equipment is good and the gym has a great atmosphere. Service at front desk is always helpful and they have a bunch of classes to offer aswell

Fantastic experience: Been here for years. It’s has more than you need to accomplish your fitness goals.Overall great gym.

Fantastic experience: Great customer service

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym, nice people, always clean!

Fantastic experience: Love the vibe in the gym, everyone is too themselves and a good family

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Great staff. Great gains !!!

Fantastic experience: Colosseum on top

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym i’ve been to in a long time. The staff is super friendly and inviting, especially Enoch !

Fantastic experience: Great local gym in the South Orange, Maplewood, Irvington area. The owner Jill is great !!! The gym have been improving since I started

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Get you Coach Eddie

Positive experience: Great gym itself. The majority of the people that attend are also very friendly. The coaches and receptionists on the other hand are not so great. Very judgmental group of people who seem to somehow know your business from a third party outside of the gym and decide to bring it into the atmosphere of the gym. One receptionist in particular tries to be a mean girl and we all know that stems from something deep within. But otherwise, I love this gym.

Positive experience: Good variety of equipment but outdated. Quality equipment and a step up from your average commercial gym (Blink) Friendly staff and strict reracking policy. This gym is for serious lifters and focused on bodybuilding. Not a commercial or corporate gym. Small locker rooms and semi clean bathrooms. Offer alot of good services and meal plans. Upstairs is clean and has good quality specialized high intensity offerings and personal training. Very cool. This gym is the real deal for experienced lifters.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. This gym has taken my fitness journey to the next level because of all of the diverse equipment they have available, unlike Planet fitness....would recommend for beginner gym goers and seasoned gym rats! Added bonus that they offer so many different options for classes/training sessions and they have a private LADIES ONLY gym workout room.

Fantastic experience: I like to work out at Colosseum Gym, the staff is nice and friendly , professional. JILL is so lovely ,the price is affordable, their is so many machine available for work out ,its à big familly.‍♀️.

Fantastic experience: One of a kind, hard core, good people, hard working, there is no other gym like it.

Fantastic experience: Excellent academy. There is not a lot of student traffic. Equipment is in great condition and the price of the daily or monthly fee is fair.

Fantastic experience: Excellent, I like it.

Fantastic experience: It was great!!! I mean that

Fantastic experience: This is an old school gym in the best way They have upped their game and are really trying to improve it. The upstairs has had a refit and is great. The equipment downstairs is everything you need and some great old traditional stuff you don’t see in the cookie cutter gyms like crunch. The young team behind the desk are great warm and welcoming as are the members. No funny looks here when you need a spot or to work in Traditional old school etiquette applys and that’s great:) some of the equipment needs some TLC and a clean but it’s all good If you want an old school neighborhood gym with a great work ethic and a grind mentality this is your spot, if you want to dress up and film your self and play around go to a cookie cutter Be healthy be happy be lucky

Positive experience: Loving the Thrive classes and strength training classes, been going for a month and already seeing my strength slowly improve. Definitely recommend taking Coach Rich (only thrive class I’ve been too so far) but also plan to try the other classes when/if I have time.

Fantastic experience: Wife and I started Colosseum’s Level-Up program 5 weeks ago and its life changing! We followed recommended diet and never missed a workout. Fast forward 5 weeks, our body fat has reduced and muscle mass is increasing WHILE the weight has reduced on a constant steady pace. Jill (the owner) welcomes feedback and is very supportive/flexible. The best part about this gym is the coaches and the positive enerygy here. We worked with amazing Coach B. Other coaches (Rich, Eddy and Chris) are amazing too! (i don’t know other coaches). Thanks to Colosseum for this positive impact in our lives!

Fantastic experience: That's where I release some stress 4 times a week. My trainer Julio is wonderful, even when you feel like giving up he won't let you.

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out! Coaches motivate and encourage. You work at your own pace. If you are consistent you will get results. Join us, make some new friends!!!

Fantastic experience: Great Staff and equipment the type of gym everyone can love

Fantastic experience: Colosseum was a great place for my workout journey. I haven’t been back in a while. I wish they stayed open until midnight. I loved those old hours.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful service good equipment everyone is friendly and ready to help with any questions

Fantastic experience: Great Gym, Especially if 'keeping fit' is your goal!!

Fantastic experience: The Thrive classes have been amazing. A great mixture of strength, mobility, cardio and stretching. Rich is patient and kind and works with you on the exercises (all of the trainers are great). There is also a focus on keeping things fresh so new routines and exercises are regularly worked into the rotation. Group size is kept manageable so you get individual focus and attention.

Fantastic experience: Old school bodybuilding vibe with an affordable membership and prepped meals for sale. Not a fan of the CrossFit room upstairs but that’s just me. If you’re looking for an old school and clean gym, this is the spot.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Colosseum Gym for 9 months now and have found that the Thrive program has been really wonderful with instilling good workout habits and keeping me motivated to get to the gym consistently. I've trained with all of the coaches and they are all an absolute pleasure to work with. I train primarily with Coach Beaira and from day one she has been my biggest champion. She never hesitates to point out my improvements and achievements, but also keeps me humble! The gym equipment and facilities are generally no frills, but definitely get the job done (the specialized equipment used for the Thrive program is newer and very nice). I'm thrilled to be a member of the Colosseum Gym - I lived across the street for 3 years before I finally decided to walk over for a consult, and it's the best decision I could have made for myself on my health and fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! It has everything imaginable and everyone is friendly!

Fantastic experience: 5 Stars! Very convenient and low-key gym for me. Has everything I need, fair price, EASY parking and so much better than anything else I looked at in the area.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. Affordable, friendly, no frills--everything you need for a price you can manage. Lovely staff.

Positive experience: I like the atmosphere and the location of the gym. Free weights in the back of the gym need to be updated. This includes the bar bells and dumbbells. If the free weights are not being updated in the near future, at least provide clear labels on all the weights to show an accurate weight.

Positive experience: Colosseum I love you but the price hike to 149 for 3 months is almost ludicrous to me. Ive been going to this gym for about a year plus and I loved that there was no contract so i could cancel whenever with no hidden fees. That was the main reason i made a switch from blink. Yes im aware of the new renovations and the new scans but the actual equipment is in shambles. Most are extremely dusty, and greasy, yet me and my group of 4 buddies have pushed through because we loved the friendly environment and its so close to our home. Colossseum despite the slightly older feel I want to give you a 5 star rating, but with the new pricing model and no new additions It makes more sense for me to switch to a cleaner gym for that same price of 50$ such as LA.

Fantastic experience: I was in town visiting family and they had a great no-money-down trial that I used to get a workout in. I went midday and there were a lot of very jacked dudes in there lifting big weights, but they were all very kind helping me get the lay of the land and sharing space. It's also conveniently close to a Dunkies!

Positive experience: It is a good gym but some of the equipment is broken and Left there not removed

Fantastic experience: This place is exactly what it needs to be - no frills, just the facility to get in, do the work, and bounce. What makes Colosseum great is its staff. I stopped by the gym for a few days when I was back east visiting family and Emmy at the front desk was patient, friendly and helpful. She helped me get in for a few great workouts while I was traveling, and made the atmosphere welcoming and fun. Def going to stop by again when I’m back in town. Shout out to Coach B (Bianna) as well!!

Fantastic experience: My experiences at Colosseum GYM are as expected, there is good energy and training is focused.

Negative experience: Outdated and had some broken equipment

Fantastic experience: Great gym for bodybuilding, great gym for women, there's a women only room, and they have upstairs for boxing and kickboxing MMA, etc....come check it out.

Fantastic experience: It's convenient and easy for me to get to. They have all the equipment to get the job done.

Fantastic experience: Great variety of machines

Fantastic experience: Friendly, clean and all machines are updated

Fantastic experience: Love the staff there. I've been going there on and off since they open and they always strive to keep the place clean, the equipment working and up to date.

Fantastic experience: Clean equipment, music on point, manager very friendly

Positive experience: It's like a sweat shop

Fantastic experience: Get in shape, people

Fantastic experience: Only for a smoothie , love those

Negative experience: It is unfortunate that I have to withdraw my membership because of a small experience that now has been turned into a major interruption by one of their personal trainers. I have be alienated by management who took no action. Disappointed on customer service for sure.

Negative experience: Very rude people there. I was going to join, but I changed my mind.

Positive experience: Friendly environment.

Positive experience: its okay not bad better than pf and blink atleast

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym.. Great place to get your swole on

Positive experience: Spacious enough to social distance and clean enough so I can continue my yoga practice and get my workout in

Positive experience: Great place to workout. The place is covid ready with spray bottles throughout the gym and everyone wearing mask....I coach local students that can not get to gyms because of the pandemic so thanks to the owner for giving a reasonable price for school kids....

Fantastic experience: Excellent.

Fantastic experience: I Love that Gym

Fantastic experience: The manager Theresa, idk if she’s a morning person or she has awesome customer skills. She made me feel welcome and told me about all the package deals and prices not withholding information

Positive experience: Good

Positive experience: Wonderful gym. Free weights & machines. The massages are like therapy! Then the boxing ring & equipment add a whole new element to your workout! I love this gym & staff! I just wish they had longer hours sometimes!

Positive experience: It's a hole in the hood but fun to workout there

Fantastic experience: Under new management everything is a lot better now, and still working hard every week. The best gym in town again. We love it.

Negative experience: I’ve been member since 2013 in this location, but Iam so disappointed today!!! I asked them if I can freeze my membership If I have to go out of state! They have mentioned me that I would be able to freeze the member ship! When I came back after 3 months they didn’t allow me to enter unless I renew my membership even though I should get credit for the time I was on vacation!!!That day I forgot my wallet so I asked them if I can Bring them next day!! The old guy at the front desk was so rude that he said “u can walk back and bring ur credit card”!! I felt so bad the way they treated me!! I already had my pre workout so I really needed to work out that day!! So I walked out to my home and brought my card wasting my 20 min!!! I gave them itenary of my ticket as a proof of me being on a vacation !!! But they never added! I handed them print copy of my itenary since they requested me but they lost twice and I had to print 3 rd times!! At the end I never got my 3 months credit!!!! Last months I lost my I credit card that was on record so they charged me $38.25 for feb. They gave me the reason was late fee for invalid credit card!!! I was so disappointed and decided to go to other gym! I went there and filled the form for the cancellation of my one year contract!!! And they girl at the front counter was polite and told me that I will not be charged from now on and Iam all set!!! Today, they charged me again $21.36 for March!!! Which is so unfair!!! They are saying I have to notify 30 days prior, which I was not told during my registration!!!How can they take someone’s hard earned money so easily!!! Iam leaving this gym with 5 of my other family memeber!!! I wouldn’t recommend anyone to be membership at this location!!!

Fantastic experience: Punching bag room is amazing and great variety of weight machines

Fantastic experience: I love the classes here, especially Zumba, cardio kickboxing and yoga. The renovations that the gym is experiencing are wonderful, and I appreciate the friendly and fun staff at the gym. I definitely enjoy working out here and definitely recommend!

Negative experience: Not signing up again after this month ends. First of all I put my clothes in the locker and locked it but for some reason someone broke in and stole my $70 outta my wallet. Again I had my shake from Somewhere and the lady at the counter told me i can’t bring shakes in unless it’s bought from them. The most annoying one is just today. I had my coffee in a regular Dunkin’ coffee cup and the same lady denied me to go on to workout unless I have the coffee in a thermal. Regardless what content Is in thermal or bottle, it will spill by mistake at some point. I’ve used this gym for over 3yrs because it was convenient but I guess it’s time to leave. Cool gym but needs better policies in place.

Negative experience: Before even joining, the desk rep/cashier Preston acted very unhelpful and not becoming of someone whose job is to meet and greet and *help* new members sign up. When I asked about more information on the plans he just pointed at the sign and instructed to "read". Rude person. I would hope that just because I signed up and he was there, he didn't get commission, he truly didn't deserve it. Doesn't speak well for the owners who don't care about customer service, who they employ, and their common decency.

Fantastic experience: I love Colosseum Gym,that is where l workout,they have good equipment for a quality training.

Positive experience: Machines are always out of order. Staff is nice.restrooms are extremely dirty. Gym is expensive compare to blink fitness.Plus point is you dont have to sign up for contract.

Fantastic experience: Good music Nice people Gym classes, courses and teachers available as well to better keep you physically fit.

Positive experience: Great workout location- just hope repair and cleaning of machines gets better

Positive experience: Ok for workout machines broken often..and too long

Positive experience: Home away from home love this places..best times to go is 12pm-2pm

Positive experience: Good parking. This gym lacks some of the contemporary features and comforts of a modern facility but if you know what you're doing, you'll be fine.

Fantastic experience: They have the best personal trainer there. Clayton Stern️‍♂️️‍♀️

Positive experience: This is no Planet Fitness. All the equipment isn't high gloss painted, it's not slick like Blink, there aren't a lot of class options like they have at Retro or LA Fitness and it's definitely not open 24 hours, but you walk in and feel so welcome and everyone let's you do your thing. It is so low key. While for me, the music is too loud it is energized to keep you moving and they have a DJ a couple of nights a week! It's a powerlifting par-tay! Lots of parking, great protein shakes and it's in a strip mall so if you need to grab some socks at the Dollar Store, you're good!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and reasonable prices. Courteous staff.

Negative experience: Eddie is a fantastic instructor. If it weren't for him I would not continue going because the facility is not well kept. Dirty clothes, garbage and broke stuff lay around for months. Does management care?

Negative experience: It's a hole in the wall

Positive experience: I love this gym; it's my favorite place to work out, and to be honest, I would just like a little more cleanliness in the bathrooms and locker rooms, but overall the facility and the machines are excellent. I recommend this place for exercising.

Fantastic experience: Great

Positive experience: Nice friendly place

Fantastic experience: Excellent
