HURT Performance Inc.

Fantastic experience: If you want to take your fitness journey seriously this is the place to do it. HURT is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: I am 66 years old and was looking to get healthier and stronger. I heard good things about Ben and HURT Performance. After meeting with Ben I decided to join. I could not be happier with my decision. Ben is an expert trainer, great motivational coach and has become a personal mentor. I would advise any older person looking to improve physically AND mentally to have a discussion with Ben at HURT Performance. You can’t go wrong!

Fantastic experience: Great little Gym with dedicated owner. Ben takes the time to focus on the clients and push them. Adults and kids alike.

Fantastic experience: Great place, personal training 100 percent of the time, Ben is awesome and knows what he's doing. All my kids have gone there and have seen tremendous gains in their performance in their sports and in their discipline.

Fantastic experience: A a great gym … 5 stars …!! Ben really knows his craft a always look forward to BEING HURT …!! ( lol ) With Ben … everyone should try HURT, OUT !!!!!

Fantastic experience: Programs are very very good and if need help with anything he is there.

Fantastic experience: Our family’s favorite place for a fun and effective work out. Both of my children have been participating in the Kids Course program that HURT offers for at least the past four years, and my husband works with Coach Ben twice a week on a personalized and targeted fitness routine. All three of them love being at HURT. Coach Ben is not only an expert at fitness and strength training, but in helping the kids build confidence as well as their muscles. He has been awesome for my husband to work with on his fitness goals, because Ben took his military background and several other factors in to account in order to create the perfect work outs for my husband. So thankful that HURT is nearby, but even if we had to travel to get there, we would!

Fantastic experience: Turning 65 I needed a trainer to help me over the hurdles. That is what you get in Ben. Very knowledgeable in working out activity, nutrition and life lessons. Friendly atmosphere! Thanks Ben!!

Fantastic experience: I found out about HURT Performance from the internet and decided to give it a try after reading all the glowing reviews about the place. I’ve only been going for a few months but can say that this is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to. I can already see significant changes in my physique, strength and overall wellness in such a short amount of time. Ben is the real deal; he is extremely passionate about his craft and helping all his clients achieve whatever goals they’re after. Every time I go in for a session, I learn something new from Ben, whether that be about nutrition, proper form, lifting cycles, recovery, mindset, etc. The atmosphere in the gym is great, everyone is very friendly and makes you feel welcome. I'm so glad I found this place and I look forward to continuing to improve my fitness levels and knowledge with HURT!

Fantastic experience: I came to HURT Performance and Ben last year because I was having trouble with the other exercise program I was using. I sat with Ben and had a conversation about my issues and started working out a few days later. Months later I am very happy with the work Ben has me doing. I am stronger and have less pain. The atmosphere at HURT is fun and Ben always challenges you to do your best. Best trainer by far.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to HURT for 8 years and I cannot say enough good things about Ben and the HURT family! Ben's knowledge and expertise about how the body moves and what it takes for you as an individual to reach your goals is unparalleled. Whether you sit at a desk all day for work, engage in other physical hobbies outside of the gym or have a previous injury, he will always customize your workouts to make sure you get what you need to become the strongest version of yourself. I am in the best shape of my life since going to this gym but I think the thing I value most about Ben is his attention to proper form, safety and education on everything we do there! Not to mention the great group of other clients that go to the gym. I genuinely enjoy going there and always have a good time, which makes the workouts just fly by. Give HURT a try, your body and mind will thank you.

Fantastic experience: Ben truly cares about all of his clients- tailoring each individual’s gym program in accordance with their goals and physical abilities.

Fantastic experience: I have been apart of this gym for about 8 years. There is nothing that can compare to this family. Not only is this a gym, but it’s a place to build yourself mentally and physically. Ben is an amazing trainer who is always expanding his knowledge about fitness. He can help with strengthening, nutrition and rehabilitation techniques. I highly recommend this gym for all ages and levels. He adapts to each person and their individual level of performance.

I am in my mid-forties and have never been in better shape. If you’re looking to get stronger and live a healthier life, you should definitely check into HURT. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I have had the pleasure of working with Ben for 8 years. I’m in awe of what I have accomplished at 60plus due to Ben’s expertise, encouragement, support and knowledge and his sense of humor. Going and working with Ben is more than about exercise and strength training. Ben is knowledgeable about body and weight issues, nutrition, sleep issues and other emotional and physical challenges. I as a Therapist have referred clients, colleagues and friends to him. They have benefitted from being coached by him as well. Ben and HURT rocks!!!

Fantastic experience: I’m retired and have been going to Hurt Performance for the past eight years. Ben is the owner and coach at the gym. He has a wealth of experience in competitive Strongman Competitions, but that is not why I go to him. My goal is to keep active, rejuvenate muscles that had lost tone over the years, and keep my body strong as I age. Ben is very knowledgeable about the body and knows how to deal with different body types, weights, ages, and ailments. He modifies the training to meet the needs and goals of each person and varies the routines so that I’m never doing the same thing day after day. I’ve been very happy at Hurt Performance and with my work with Ben! Highly recommended!!

Fantastic experience: Best in the business!!!!!Truly cares about his clients!!!!!

Ben has the ability to work with anyone at any level of fitness. With his coaching I continue make improvements every month, and I remain competitive any time I enter a contest.

Fantastic experience: I started my journey with Ben 8 years ago. I was recovering from a back injury due to Cross Fit. He got me off the couch right away and building not only my muscle strength, but my mindset too. I am stronger in mind and body because of HURT. Ben is so much more than a trainer. He is a friend who truly cares about his clients.

Fantastic experience: Hurt Performance Inc. is an excellent place to get yourself back into shape. The owner takes great pride in customizing a program specific to each individual’s needs. As a personal trainer Ben is second to no one. He is the best in this business. Ben’s expertise in weight training as well as nutritional advice has helped me tremendously. Although the initial phases of these workouts can be exhausting, as momentum builds, so does your confidence. He gets the most out of every client. Ask Ben about the Account-A-Coach program? Building Blocks for a Better You!

Fantastic experience: A great gym! A little intimidating walking in but everyone is friendly and helpful. The owner takes the time to build and tailor a workout program specific to individual needs after being evaluated. Definitely a value for the individual service and attention provided for a personal trainer as compared to other gyms offering personal training.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working with Ben and HURT Performance for over 9 years. The amount of attention to detail, consistency, and innovation in his training programs are unmatched. My year over year growth in strength, performance, and health are owed to Ben! This is the right place to start/continue any health journey you want to be a part of!

Fantastic experience: Ben is a wonderful trainer and an even better person. He has expertise in weight training, nutrition advice and life advice. I don’t know which is more important, but he’s the real deal!

Fantastic experience: HURT PERFORMANCE is awesome. My wife, my two sons (8 and 10yrs old) and I all have been working out with Ben for years! He runs great programs for each of us. I’m the strongest and in the best shape of my life, now in my 50s. Programs are always evolving and challenging, and Ben’s training knowledge is 2nd to none. I also really appreciate how great he is with the kids programs (keeping it fun and giving a great base for a lifetime of weight training). The charity and community work he participates in are so admirable. I highly recommend HURT PERFORMANCE for whatever your goals. Just get into the gym and know you are in good hands!!!

Fantastic experience: I started training here when I was a young sophomore in high school to better myself for football. I am now playing college football. I not only grew physically but mentally. I learned many valuable lessons and techniques from Ben. This is the best place to grow in the ways you want to. Ben has guided and helped me with more than I know and would do the same for anyone else.

Fantastic experience: Personally, HURT has allowed me to continue my basketball career past high school at the division 2 and 3 level. I was underperforming in high school physically and mentally but in a short amount of time, I was able to increase my overall athleticism and become an impact player. Ben, Nikki, and others have challenged me physically and more importantly, mentally. I would not be where I am if it was not for HURT. !!!!!!!!!

Fantastic experience: I had been going to various gyms and “clean eating” for years and no real progress to show for it....I am now 46 with two kids, for perspective. I decided to challenge myself and walk into Hurt about 6 years ago. Getting there was half the battle! Since I have been training with Ben, I have built strength, tone, and have a 6 pack for the first time in my life! The motivation, guidance, and knowledge he shares daily has shifted my mindset and I look forward to every hard workout. It’s fun, rewarding, and in addition to the obvious health benefits of weight training, I am thrilled with the physical results. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I joined Hurt gym over a year ago and it has change the way I view exercise and working out. Ben is an amazing trainer. He is intuitive and anticipates my needs and adjusts my workouts accordingly (if one body part is sore or weak, we focus on something else). He pushes me (safely) out of my comfort zone and I feel stronger and more confident than I have in years. Ben is not just my trainer, but my friend and I can't imagine working out without him!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality , Value

Fantastic experience: I started training at HURT Performance back in 2012 when I was finishing up my last semester playing rugby at SUNY Oswego. I committed myself to Ben’s programs and his expertise in sports strength training. When I returned back to the rugby field I felt like a totally different player. I was faster, stronger and my conditioning had improved tremendously. Since then I’ve grown to have a passion for the sport of strongman and was able to compete in competitions where I pushed myself beyond anything I ever thought I was capable of. Ben also is a man of the community and has hosted many charity contests at his gym to help people in need. His programs can be personalize to what your goals are. Overall I highly recommend HURT Performance for any of your physical fitness goals!

Fantastic experience: To understand training at H.U.R.T, you have to understand being uncomfortable during exercise. Ben designs programs with certain ideals behind them and bases them around your unique fitness levels or tendencies (most times. Sometimes things will just be tough). There is a method to his madness and a purpose for everything. Challenge creates change and Ben is going to put things in front of you that will challenge you. At the end of the workout, there's plenty of critique, explanation, and hugs if you need them. Be open, be honest, and trust the process. Ben will make things possible, but you will work for it! And always remember to own your journey and the results will follow.
