Fantastic experience: I wish I had joined this gym years ago. Everything about this place is phenomenal. Before joining, I thought I was doing well at the gym lifting on my own. But the programming at PWR proved me wrong. There are constantly new exercises and you learn how to really focus, breathe with the movements, and feel the good burn. All of the trainers are extremely present, kind, and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I used to be a regular 6am’er back in 2018-2020, then Covid hit & I moved so I decided to try out other gyms more local to me that I thought would give me what HIWB did… Fast forward to 2022 and I’m back at PWR and I have to say the energy and atmosphere are unmatched with this place! So happy to be back & crushing new goals with the sunrise sweat fam

Fantastic experience: What an amazing place to be ! The coaches put you first from the minute you walk through the door, to the minute you leave. They bring out the best in you, and all the strength you never thought you had.They make sure your form is on point so your feeling confident and not in pain, and will work with you to build your confidence and change your mind set in the gym and outside of it . This community is one of a kind and is filled with nothing but love and support!

Fantastic experience: I started a year ago and what an amazing family I have joined !! I had chronic back pain from years of sports that would debilitate me for weeks at a time. With slow methodical training and modifications provided by all the trainers at PWR, I have fought back to consistently working out 5 days a week moving up in weights/reps and endurance and haven't been knocked down with back pain at all!! I miss the days I am off but have learned recovery is just as important as the workouts themselves. I look forward to seeing my 5 am crew everyday and starting my days off with an amazing workout !! PWR has also given my 2 girls a great example of what hard work and dedication can do and how to be a strong fit momma!!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely LOVE being a PWR Family member! YES I said a “Family” member because this facility treats every single member like family! I have been a member from day one, when it was formerly HIWB aka, Hiit It With Britt and at its prior location on Walker Way! PWR represents exactly what it stands for. Every class brings you variety in a loving & caring atmosphere with the most decorated trainers. PWR is acceptable for ALL fitness levels! I feel both at ease and exhilarated when I walk through those doors each and every morning. Working out at PWR has allowed for me to create life long friendships with people that make me want to get out of bed at 4 am every day! NEVER in a million years would I have thought that I’d be sweating and working out in public!! If you’re on the fence of bringing your workout outside of your home, I HIGHLY suggest giving PWR a hard try! YOU WILL AMAZE YOURSELF IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to PWR (formerly HiiT it with Britt) for several years now and would highly recommend. The trainers are great, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the workouts provide results. Definitely worth the time and investment!

Crystal Berger 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Going to the gym shouldn’t be a chore, it should be exciting and something you look forward to. That’s exactly the feeling you’ll get from PWR! Not only does every single coach know every single member, but they make you feel important and worth it. With PWR you get a personal training feeling from a group class setting. I joined over 2 years ago and I am NEVER looking back!! I love my PWR fam and if you join, you will too!! #YouArePWRful

Caleb Barton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for a year, and my husband recently joined as well! This gym is so empowering, fun and motivating! Trainers are knowledgeable and helpful. They are always there to correct your form, prevent injuries and challenge you when needed. I have definitely noticed weight loss and muscle gain, but MORE than that, my cardiovascular health and mental health has also been improved. I can’t say enough nice things about the staff and program. -Brittany

Eric Crist 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I look forward to training every morning. The concept of breaking up the movements and fatiguing a separate part of the body throughout the week is well thought out. As I fatigue and lose focus there is always a smiling trainer on my tail to make sure, I get the most out of the workout. Everyone there has made me feel welcome. Thanks! V/S Eric Crist

Fantastic experience: I started at PWR back in July 2021, thinking I’d probably only go 1-2 times per week. Flash forward to today and I’m there 5 times a week. I got ACL surgery back in January 2020. Once I finished physical therapy and went back to working out on my own, I wasn’t seeing results and stopped. After almost 6 months of PWR I started playing soccer again and that wouldn’t have been an option if I didn’t join. PWR keeps me motivated and excited to work out. The workouts are challenging and the coaches are always there to make sure you’re doing it right. The friendly coaches/members and great fits are what keep me coming back

Brittni Marcucci 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: When I first went to PWR I was a little nervous because it was my first time doing a HIIT workout ever. I had no idea what I was doing also didn’t really know anyone but I was greeted with open arms by everyone! The coaches are so amazing they come over to you and guide you through any workout if you are struggling also fix your form so you are always getting the best workout possible. I am so happy I chose to come to PWR. I can see such great changes in my body. The workouts are so fun the music is always bumpin and it’s just an overall great experience. It’s honestly addicting! I’ve been going for over a year now and have no thoughts of stopping anytime soon!

Fantastic experience: To call PWR a "gym" doesn't do it justice. PWR is an experience, a community, a place where I've learned to like myself, made new friends and connections and...PWR is a place I consistently attend! How many gym memberships have I paid for that have just been another monthly bill? Not this time! And when you don't show up, the coaches check in. Because they actually care about how you are doing and want to support you! And your community will rally and support you, too! It's not easy, but it's worth it and most things that are worth it rarely are. There is such a great feeling of accomplishment hearing "your timer is complete." Worth going every time.

Muriel Church 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about PWR518! I was a runner but with an injury and surgery I could no longer run. I lost all my confidence. A friend insisted I try PWR. I saw the pictures. I was GYMtimidated! But I said I would try. The first day there all the instructors knew my name. Came and greeted me and helped me feel comfortable AND SAFE the entire workout (and every workout since). Yeah...these are challenging workouts. The coaches and other members are fierce. They bring out my best! You wont find a more challenging gym you can start at ANY level and grow with. Nor will you find a more welcoming and supportive gym! They are my community now!

Shannon Pinkowski 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Making the decision to leave one gym to go to another is always a tough decision especially when you rely on it for training to make you a better athlete outside of the facility. From the moment I tried PWR out with the 4 class intro period I knew I’d love it for so many reasons. 3/4 months later I can honestly say this was the best decision and change I made! This is a culture that has a solid consistency of guidance from coaches, encouragement to push yourself, a vibe that is contagious and leaves you pumped for the day and honestly a culture that truly cares about your well-being, health and goals. It doesn’t get much more REAL than at PWR!

Fantastic experience: This gym is perfect for people who want to stay fit after retirement. The trainers are very knowledgeable and they adapt the exercises to each person's individual fitness level.

Jennifer Lefsyk 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough wonderful things about PWR (formerly Hiit it with Britt) and all of our coaches! I've been a member for over two years. This gym has become my happy place and like a form of therapy to me. The coaches are all amazing, inspiring, and push you to challenge yourself every day - and any/all skill levels are welcome and encouraged. They go above and beyond regarding safety protocols surrounding the pandemic. I've never felt uncomfortable walking into the gym. PWR has had such a positive impact on my physical and mental health, even more so during these tough times. They also have a virtual-on-demand option that is just awesome if you're not comfortable coming to the gym in person. They've got you covered! Love PWR!

Raquel Winslow 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been been with HIWB for almost 5 years now. From the moment I walked in Ive been pushed to my limits, in the best way possible. The workouts are great, fun and most importantly effective. This place has become my second home. It's truly my happy place. Britt has brought together a variety of trainers.... Each has her own specialty. But they all genuinely love what they do and it shows. We are more than just "gym friends" we are a community here and I look forward to my early AM workouts. It's not something I can put into words. You just have to come try a class and feel the vibe for yourself.

Allison Ives 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I just finished one of their sessions of the 8 week accountability program and I cant say enough positive things about it or the gym. They have done an incredible job of making the gym feel safe even in these scary times and also took the opportunity to develop a rich virtual program. I am so happy to have found a space that I can use as an outlet both at the gym and from the comfort of my own home if I need to. Thanks to Britt and her team for all they do. They are truly the best!

April Ross 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I took my first HIIT class at HIIT It with Britt late September of 2020 and immediately fell in LOVE! The staff works hard to create and maintain a clean facility, using towels, personal spray bottles, and masks to keep everyone safe... they have made joining a new work out community SO welcoming and fun! Although you are in group classes, I feel like I'm in personal training due to how the staff encourages me to up my weights, improve my cardio, and keep pushing when I am tired! The staff is also great at providing modifications of their work outs for those with various injuries. The energy in HIIT It with Britt is like NO OTHER!

Kristina Desantis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I absolutely cannot say enough good things about this gym! Being an athlete my entire life and then graduating high school and not having a gym or team to call my home was unusual for me. I walked through the door to this gym alone and left that same day with a group of people I knew would push me to be my best. I did not feel out of place at all even though I was new to HIIT training. This gym is a place I can get a workout in, my frustrations out, my mental health in check, and be able to feel part of something much bigger than myself. I have created friendships with both the trainers and other hitters in the gym that will last a lifetime and have seen some amazing people accomplish their goals. I am so thankful to have had many different opportunities through HIIT it with Britt that I will carry with me forever. If you are looking for a place to call home, whether you are just starting your fitness journey or are experienced but looking to take your fitness journey to the next level, HIIT it with Britt is the place for you. Trust me when I say you’re missing out if you aren’t hitting here with the best!

Anthony Mann 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Personally, I’m a weight lifter. I joined this gym with my wife to support and assist her with feeling more comfortable while working out. This is a very fast paced environment. If you don’t like being pushed to your absolute limit every time you step foot In The door, this isn’t the place for you. However, if you are trying to better yourself and have a GREAT high intensity workout EVERY TIME you walk through the door this is the place for you. There are always positive vibes and plenty of encouragement. No one there judges, everyone is there to better themselves. This place is Full of positive energy and support. I love pushing myself to the absolute limit and they help me do that every time I train. I love it!!! And again this is coming from a weight lifter.

Meaghan Lambert 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to HIWB for almost four years and it’s the best gym in the Capital Region. HIWB offers smart, dynamic, fun workouts for all levels. The staff is super passionate and knowledgeable & treat you like family! During the pandemic I’ve opted for the virtual workouts & they are just as great! You won’t regret signing up for a class.

Nicole Luibrand 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIWB is my absolute happy place and I recommend this gym to everyone any chance I get. This is the ONLY place that has made me actually ENJOY and look forward to getting up at 4AM for their early AM classes. The atmosphere and energy created is one that you will not find anywhere else. The trainers push you to your limits and truly invest their time into seeing you progress both physically and mentally. The connections I've made here and the growth I've seen within myself has made HIWB much more than just a gym to me. HIWB's response to reopening during the pandemic made me feel extremely comfortable and at ease - the new protocols that include temperature checks, required masks, spaced out stations, and our own sanitizing spray after equipment use in addition to the deep cleaning that takes place in between classes make for an exceedingly safe environment to workout in. Their ability to adapt and make their clients safety a priority is one of the many reasons why I love them! Do yourself a favor and JOIN THIS GYM. Your health and happiness will thank you for it :)

Kristi Prince 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym has always been my happy place! Since reopening they have gone above and beyond to ensure the health and safety of their members. Though strict disinfecting, mask requirements, temperature checks and reduced class sizes they have made everyone feel comfortable with returning to indoor workouts! We are more than a gym, but a fitness family. My mental health depends on it.

Tara Algozzine 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is my happy place. High energy, upbeat and super supportive trainers , and welcoming , friendly members make the atmosphere motivating and inclusive. I have been a member for 3 years and now, with COVID, things have changed a bit but I still get the same great workout. I am so impressed with the organization and thoughtfulness Britt and her team put into protocols to keep everyone safe and healthy while working out. I have zero qualms about going to the gym during this pandemic. I feel safe and supported throughout the best hour of my day. Everything is sanitized before , during and after the workouts and social distancing is maintained while still keeping the group energy that I have come to love. Try it out! You won’t regret it!

Courtney Bernard 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Hands down, this is the best gym in the Capital Region. I started coming to HIWB in December 2019 and instantly loved it. The workouts are always different so I never get bored and actually look forward to working out. The trainers here are amazing. They make you feel welcomed and you can tell they genuinely care about you and your health and safety, especially with the new COVID guidelines. With their COVID procedures in place, I never worry about my safety or the cleanliness of the gym. They do an awesome job with keeping everything clean and social distancing.

Vanessa Cianfarani 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: PWR (formerly HiiT it with Britt) was hands down the best experience- as simply as I can put it, and that doesn't do it justice. From the moment you walk in you're greeted with the warmest welcome from their coaches. All proper safety precautions are taken to ensure our health is protected (temp check, sanitation, 6' spacing). All fitness levels are supported- so don't worry if you feel you might not be at your strongest, or are just starting to workout. They really have your back with options and modifications. During your class, you'll feel empowered, supported and encouraged. They check your form, correct any potential injury-educing mistakes (we all make them!), and then step back and are your BIGGEST cheerleaders. The coaches are the most attentive, personal and FUN people to train with. I think this place is perfect for anyone, at any fitness level. I'm grateful that I found them.

Katrina Consiglio 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been an athlete my entire life, but the reality of how much harder it is to get and stay in shape, maintain my weight, and tone my body as I get older was never more evident once I hit my mid-40’s. After focusing on distance running for most of my adult life, I found I needed some serious help with strength training and toning to avoid injury and keep the weight off. I joined HIIT It with Britt over 3 years ago and love it! The workouts, the trainers, and the sense of community - motivates me to get to those 5:00 AM classes and start my day right. As Britt says, your workout sets the tone and intentions for the day. I never would have imagined a total body workout that would be so consistently challenging no matter how long I have been doing it. I am sore after every class, and that’s how I know it’s working! Thanks to the amazing trainers and the time they invest in supporting me, cheering me on, and guiding me - I have improved my form and strength over the years. But the work is never done! This is lifelong commitment I made to myself knowing how important my physical and mental health are in order to balance a career and my family life. I challenge you to come and check it out for yourself! You won’t regret it!

Sean Donnelly 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have only been a member for around 10 months but in those tens months PWR has become one of my favorite places! When we first started I was not a fan of group workout classes at all but they instantly changed my mind. Now I look forward to every class and I love all of the trainers!! They do such a great job at making sure you are pushing yourself and you really feel that they have confidence in your ability. BEST place in the 518.

Morgan Bell 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined HIWB a little over 3 years ago when I was looking to switch up my routine; walking into this gym was the best decision I could have made! To begin, Britt and her trainers are the absolute best. You truly get a personal training experience in a class setting. All of the trainers are educated and incredibly supportive; from providing modifications to challenges, they are there with you every step of the way. Their adaptability, particularly during the last 10 months while navigating COVID is admirable. Upon returning to the gym, safety and sanitizing protocols to ensure everyone’s health and well being were implemented. All equipment is sanitized before, during, and after the workout. I feel completely safe and comfortable working out in this gym. Second, the community in this gym is unmatched. Not only do you have the support of your trainers, you have the support of the family working out beside you. Hiiters uplift and encourage one another. The positive energy is contagious. I highly recommend HIWB to everyone! I’m grateful for not only the physical gains, but for the growth mindset, and the community. I look forward to each and every day I get to workout at HIWB.

John Volks 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Have been working out at HIWB for over a year now and every workout is challenging. The trainers will motivate you to get the best workout each time. The workouts are a great mix of strength and cardio training. Since COVID the HIWB team have adapted to keep everyone safe while maintaining the same level of workout. The gym and equipment are very clean and frequently sanitized. Everyone wears a mask and are socially distanced. I didn’t think that I could workout with a mask but now I don’t notice a difference with or without one. If you’re thinking about joining a gym in the capital region you should definitely check out HIWB!

carlaf fuller 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIWB is my second home. Since being able to come back to the gym with Covid regulations being in place I have felt so safe while still receiving a challenging workout daily. Stations are 6ft apart and are sanitized after each use. All gym members and trainers wear masks before, during, and after the workout. I am very thankful for the trainers making me feel safe while I am still able to get my workout in at their facility. I would recommend these workouts to anyone at any fitness level.

Cori Bichteman 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have had an incredible experience at Hiit it with Britt. When I began I was out of shape and significantly overweight. The entire community is super supportive. The trainers are all amazing and manage to stay focused on each member individually with goals and form- all while keeping the group energy level up! I was devastated when the gyms were forced to close, but this gym didn’t miss a beat offering equipment and online classes every day. Once we could move outside we did with multiple class offerings each day. Finally, we were able to return to the gym with safety precautions and this dream team did not miss a thing. They have established safe and consistent cleaning and safety protocols- and they never stray from enforcement. So proud of HIWB and the entire gym community! Stop thinking about joining and just do it. You won’t regret it.

Nicole Levine 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIIT it with Britt is like no other gym. I have been a Hiiter for almost 2 years. As soon as you walk in the doors you are welcomed into a community that is supportive and loving. The workouts are challenging and the trainers are motivating and knowledgeable. While gyms were shutdown, HIWB created a virtual platform with a new workout every day, some days with themes! Now that they are reopened, all protocols are being followed. Daily temperature checks, spaced out assigned cones, personal sanitizer bottles... they thought of it all. I look forward to starting every day at HIWB and I highly recommend.

Edward Witko 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very grateful to be apart of this family. I say family because the PWR trainers really take the time to get to know you and what you are capable of doing. They push you every day to do just a little bit better, even if it’s only one extra rep. The atmosphere is unlike any other gym. Whether you are new to working out or a seasoned vet, this gym is for you.

Dionne Puorto 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to HIWB for 2 1/2 years now and no other gym in the capital district compares! The trainers are professional, the facility is clean, and the environment is unlike any other gym I've been too. From the workouts being different every day, fire playlists, to the camaraderie in general, it's a place that makes you WANT to work out. A second home for so many of us! Take a class with Relli and/or Britt and you absolutely won't regret it, you'll be hooked!

Gen T 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIWB is more than just a gym. It’s a community, an outlet and the trainers are truly inspirational. I’ve been going for over a year after working out 4 years at another hitt training facility. I was ready for a change and HIWB delivered. The variety of the workouts and welcoming of the trainers and members has motivated me to show up daily. The energy is amazing and I highly recommend this place no matter your fitness level.

karisa bailey 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is amazing! Since day one i was hooked, between the amazing workouts and the wonderful staff, there isn’t any gym that can top them, they are truly number 1 in the area! I have to say i have never been more ambitious to actually want to work out until i became a member here. We are all dealing with a “new normal” and they definitely know how to keep everyone safe and comfortable especially with everything going on. The team is truly like my family away from my family and I am so glad I found HIIWB.

Mary Fiacco 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: In just 6 short weeks this gym has changed my life! I can’t stress enough how caring, compassionate, motivating, and just overall awesome all of these trainers are! I have been to other gyms and let me tell you, they don’t compare to HIWB. At HIWB the trainers make it a point to make sure that EVERY single member feels apart of this family, something that other places do not. They go above and beyond from the second you walk through the door until the second you walk out! I have had the pleasure of working with “Rah” and let me tell you, if you are looking for a change not only physically but mentally, she is your girl! One class and I can promise you, you will be wanting more!

Taylor Lagace 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIWB is like no other. As a trainer here, I know the expectations we hold for ourselves and our clients. We pride ourselves on the cleanliness of our facility, effective workouts, but most importantly the relationships we build. One workout and you’ll quickly see the community that has been built. Try it for yourself!! You won’t be disappointed!

Shannon Spollen 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a HiiTer for about 2 years now and I can’t imagine life without this gym, ESPECIALLY now. During quarantine, HIWB provided virtual workouts with varying modifications tailored to at-home availability of equipment DAILY. Despite the circumstances, the trainers remained positive, committed, and encouraging. When HIWB was finally able to open again (thank goodness!) they met us with safety protocols with ALL of us in mind to make sure that we were comfortable, prepared, and most importantly, SAFE. Almost 3 months into these protocols (including individual sanitizers for every station and mandatory towel use) and I have nothing but faith in this gym and the community it fosters. HIWB has not only improved my physical health but my mental health as well; these trainers and this environment is what gets me out of bed every morning (no joke!). If you’re looking for a positive change and need to start somewhere, I cannot recommend Britt, her trainers, and her gym enough, they have truly changed my life.

Jenna LaTourette 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: HIWB is the most engaging, challenging, accepting and motivating community I have ever been a part of. I say community because it is more than a gym. Each and every trainer is dedicated to making the classes the most worthwhile experience for us members and their passion to push us to our limits and be the best we can be is evident. The ability to adapt and evolve through the pandemic to continue provide us with the best possible experience is amazing. The sanitation protocols are unmatched and I have always felt super safe while working out in the gym, in fact safer than I do at any other public space! 4 months ago I was completely out of a work out routine and since joining HIWB it is something I look forward to most in my daily routine and I love it!! I highly recommend trying a class, you will not regret it!!

Jenna Stark 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This gym is more than just a gym it is a second home to me! With everything going on it is nice to be able to go there and get a great workout in! They have gone above and beyond to make sure the facility is clean and that everyone is comfortable with everything going on due to covid. The trainers are amazing and push you to make sure your goals are met!

Kara MacFarland 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Since the first day I stepped foot in HIWB I was welcomed with open arms by the trainers and fellow hitters. All the trainers are very attentive and go out of their way to give encouragement to each hitter during class. Since coming back after being shut down from COVID I feel very safe being in a group setting, mainly due to the new socially distancing and cleaning protocols set in place by the staff. Everything is sprayed during class and after to ensure safety is a number one priority. I have had nothing but a positive experience and would recommend HIWB to everyone!

Maegan Lynch 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined HIWB on a whim with no real expectation and the hope to just get through the initial trial month. More than 2 years later I can honestly say it’s a part of my day that I look forward to. My limits have been pushed to strengths I didn’t know I had. The upbeat environment, the knowledgeable trainers, their encouragement, and the challenges make HIWB more than just an ordinary workout. With all of the changes to our daily life amidst a pandemic, I am so thankful to have a consistently challenging workout in a clean and safe environment. The trainers are welcoming and friendly and have kept me coming back. If you’re lucky enough to steadily take a class with Leia you will find heavier weights and heavy encouragement to match. After what can be long days, the stress release for an hour and the smile you are greeted with (under a mask for now) is the best hour a day you can give yourself!

Melissa Shufelt 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I joined HIWB almost 3 years ago now and I have to say it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made for myself. HIWB has always been an outlet and showed me that I am capable of things that I didn’t think were possible. HIWB has been a huge part of my life but even more so during these hard times. Going a few months without the gym was more of a challenge than I anticipated. Being a health care worker and being able to get back to the gym after a long stressful day has been the best outlet and stress relief that I could ask for. HIWB and my 5:30 classes have become a part of my life style. I have gotten to meet so many amazing trainers that have impacted me and pushed me to be a stronger person. The trainers really get to know you and having a consistent schedule with Leia has helped me to push myself to new limits while focusing on my form despite any limitations. The team has done a great job adhering to all new guidelines and protocols. I have never felt more safe and excited to have a place to decompress, especially during today’s crazy conditions.

Leia Nardacci 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to HIWB for over four years - as both a client and a trainer. I am absolutely impressed with the guidelines the gym has in place, creating a safe and healthy environment for all. Each station has 6 spots, all color coded with specific equipment at each. The sanitation between stations and gym, as a whole, is superb. I’m very happy with the overall quality of the gym and, of course, I love all of the workouts. The HIWB community is like no other ❤️

Leah Debboli 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: There isn't enough I can say about this gym. HIWB has changed my lifestyle and perspective on group workouts/HIIT. I now wake up as early as 5am to get a workout in that I am excited for. Walking into the lobby and seeing the faces of the friendly trainers makes my day. I feel very safe coming to the gym as I get my temperature checked before I start my workout. The new platform not only is effective but keeps me accountable! If you're looking for a great workout, atmosphere, and trainers... This is the place!!!!

Christina De Thomasis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried every group fitness studio/gym you could think of and HIWB is by far one of the best I have experienced. Every time I return to Albany, I book HIWB weeks in advance because I am that excited to take class again. Although I can’t attend class on a weekly basis, I always feel welcomed and valued when I return. While the workout is challenging yet motivating, I return for the authentic trainers and inspiring community they worked so hard to build. They know every member by name and take the time to make personal connections with each person who walks through the door. Good trainers fill classes. Authentic trainers build community.
