This is the best bang for your buck you will ever get!! I’m so spoiled here. I tried taking an Orange Theory Fitness class and was appalled at the lack of individualized, one-on-one attention I got. Don’t waste your money going anywhere else. The fitness classes here are top tier. They feel more like small group fitness classes (which, I’ve paid $300 a month in the past at Moxie for) and sometimes they even feel like personal training sessions. All the instructors there care so much about making you feel comfortable, encouraging you, and showing you good form. I cancelled my membership in 2010 and reinstated it in 2021 with zero problems. No hassles no hidden fees. They almost made too easy to leave. (My Planet fitness membership however, was a nightmare to cancel. Do not recommend.) I started my fitness journey at RWJ in November of 2021 and I’ve come so far!! I can’t say enough things about this gym and all the staff! 😊

Once they have stopped Plainsboro one, this became densely populated. Rating is not for the gym or management only but for over all experience. Today hit the gym around 9:00 AM. waited for any of the benches or shoulder press equipment for 28+ minutes. Even if you wait for the bench, one or 2 old lads will feel offended. Those guys might have never been to any crowded gym or never heard of sharing. Gym management were quiet on this. Will give one or more day then will cancel my membership. After seeing the people I can feel its not at all good environment to workout. They should open another center nearby

Updated review: I would still give it 0 stars if possible. Happy New Year is what I'd like to say. Not only is there increased demand due to the Plainsboro location closing...but they decided to raise the rates again (2nd time within a year). One would think they would change the open hours back to pre COVID 5 AM to 11 PM M-Th, 5 AM to 10 PM F, 7 AM to 5 PM Sat/Sun. Instead we get overcrowding in all areas of the gym for the extra amount we are paying. It appears my last review was accurate and has not changed either. Old review from 2021: If I could give 0 stars I would. This gym has become absolutely terrible now. The weight area is the same as any other place with really nothing special. I occasionally go to the pool and they have essentially banned paying members from the pool for "lessons". The pool is essentially closed from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM during the week with some lanes closed from 4:00 PM to 9:30 PM leaving only less than 8 x 30 minute time slots for everyone to get some laps in. And from 8:00 am (essentially at opening) to 12:00 pm on Saturdays when it is the most ideal time to get in. The lessons do not folllow COVID19 social distancing guidelines and most of the instructors and aquatics staff have a nasty attitude towards members. I have been a member for years and have watched the decline in professionalism and manners. These issues have been brought up to the general manager, but have fallen on deaf ears. They gyms hours are currently 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM M-Th, with the pool closing 30 minutes early. 5:00 AM to 9:00 PM F, 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM Sat/Sun. Morning swim appointments are usually filled within minutes of being available. The administration believes there is no demand for the pool, it truly shows they would rather a quick buck versus consistent income from loyal members.

This is a public gym but memberships are required. Pros include a large variety of fitness equipment, three pools, large locker rooms with sauna and fitness trainers for hire. Cons include the fitness areas are very noisy and crowded, there is no one available to help with setting up machines, both members and trainers are self absorbed and inconsiderate when machines are busy and/or unavailable. Space for stretching (essential for a safe and effective workout) is simply hard to find at busier times. Lastly, members seem to workout randomly, without supervision or any guidance at all. Consequently, I've observed more than a few exercise efforts that I would consider unsafe or bordering on dangerous. There was no staff member anywhere available to intervene. Membership packages and training packages are moderately priced.

I would give zero stars if possible and strongly encourage others to look into other nearby aquatic gyms. 1. Signed up daughter for 8 swim lessons and the instructor no-showed twice within the first 4 sessions. No calls, no apologies-no contact made from the office until I called to request another teacher. The new teacher sees my daughter twice and then the third session she waits until I arrive to say "sorry I'm sick" and asks someone else to cover the session. Does anyone use calendar reminders? They have my cell phone number and can send a courtesy text? Supposedly the new instructor is a "supervisor". 2. The floors of the "family change rooms" are always soaking wet and constantly in use by senior citizens with mobility issues that require upwards of 20+ minutes for changing. The layout of the aquatics center is so poor that seniors use the family change rooms because the regular locker rooms are far and inconveniently placed. 3. The crowds: the therapy pool doubles as the teaching pool so you have multiple 70+ elderly trying to do water aerobics with kids learning to swim. People routinely run into each other because there is no scheduled class structure or space. 4. The front desk staff: only one person is friendly, the rest will try to avoid eye contact even though I have to physically request one of them to check in a swim lesson on the computer. 5. The signage: a sign at the pool says no cell phone usage which is standard and assumed to be no overt phone calls. I was browsing with my head down and was told that was not allowed. Okay, I put the phone away. Another sign also says "no under 16 allowed" but 4 pm onward is full of little kids getting swim lessons. Where is the consistency? Normally I wouldn't complain about such a petty issue regarding signage but the whole place is a ramshackle building falling apart so this is the icing on the cake. I won't be returning here after our paid sessions are used.

My butt started to itch after going to the pool. Doctor told me they need to cut off my butt cheeks. Overall, gym is great, pool is great, recommend 100%. thumbs up 🤙🏻

We love this gym! Great value for the money, variety of group classes, aquatic center, sauna, steam room, daycare. Personal training is amazing too. It is expensive, but absolutely worth it! So far no complaints at all! Everyone is nice and helpful. My trainer Magda is supportive and keeps workouts interesting (loved the session in the pool) Overall, 5+ stars!

Very great gym. Plenty of equipment. All the staff and members are friendly. I especially like working with my trainer Kelly Young. She is so friendly. I would definitely recommend that people choose her for personal training - Alex Gonzalez

I have been a member since RWJ's inception. I cannot begin to tell you the benefits and pleasure it has provided me over the years. RWJ's management has a well run helpful staff and all the members I have come to know are friendly and also supportive. Obviously, when you operate a facility of this size and complexity, sometimes things may need attention. However, management has always addressed the problems quickly and professionally. They also provide plenty of parking for people with disabilities. Anyone else who complains about walking a few hundred feet to go to a gym and workout should probably stay home on the couch! Unfortunately you cannot please everyone. Thank you RWJ.

Not impressed. The locker room is disorienting. There are zero towels at this gym. No towels for pool or to wipe sweat off. You have to bring your own stuff 👎

I've been going to this gym for 15 years and the upkeep and service has been declining steadily for a few years. To the point where the front desk rarely greets you when you check in and showers are in disrepair. But my main gripe is the availability of the pool. Either they're doubling up on revenue by taking up lanes with lessons or allowing people to swim all day, it is almost always difficult to get a lane. I used to be very happy here. Update for Nov 2023. I'd like to add one note here. There is a gentleman named Don in the Aquatics area who works very hard to make sure you get into a lane or the other questions or needs you have are addressed. He's been there for a while and does a great job.
