Stanlaw Fitness

Fantastic experience: What a great place to workout . Everyone is so friendly from Mike to every patron of the gym. The classes are great and you’ll get a verified good workout that leaves you sore . Mike will also come help correct form. Humble and nice place to workout. Everyone clearly enjoys being there .

Fantastic experience: I approached Mike and Robert on Broadway last Saturday and was concerned over this FCE (Functional Capacity Exam) that Liberty Mutual and it's doctors wanted me to take. But the very next week Robert gave me a one week session from Monday very early in the morning thru Saturday and it was an excited experience. Robert was testing me on everything, didn't left nothing out and was very meticulous on all it's methods precisely and at the very end it paid off on Monday 05/23 at around 09:30 am in a fitness center in Newark and the FCE examiner couldn't believe how well I did. In the years he was doing this FCE, he never seen anything like this before his eyes with such unbelievable strength . All this was done by Stanlaw fitness center in Bayonne. Those guys deserve the medal of honor for giving me such great confidence and motivation to pass this test. Thank you Robert and Mike for helping me to pass the FCE Exam.

Fantastic experience: I began my personal training journey with Stanlaw Fitness and have been nothing but impressed. The facility is superb and the instructors are top-notch.

Positive experience: A wonderful spot to get an all-over exercise.

Fantastic experience: I cannot express how highly I recommend this studio. The workouts are incredibly challenging and the atmosphere is incredibly inviting. Mike is incredibly attentive and has an amazing team of trainers and staff to back him up. I have never been so dedicated to my workouts as I have been since joining this studio.

Fantastic experience: A year prior to joining Stanlaw, I had partially torn 2 ligaments on my ankle. Used my injury as an excuse to not workout but after a friends recommendation I started my free week April 2019 then joined the 6 week challenge. November 2019 I added personal training with Mike Stanlaw. Love the options and atmosphere. Everyone looks out for each other. The instructors and classes are awesome. When the gyms were mandated to close, Mike found a way to keep us going. Joining was the best decision I made.

Fantastic experience: Mike and his staff are the very best at what they do! He instills fitness as a lifestyle in all of his members. It's not just the 30 minute or hour long workouts. It's the personal check-ins throughout the week, the periodic fitness challenges that help you define a goal and specify a time limit to reach it, and the feeling that your fitness is their number one priority. You will never feel like you are just a client at Stanlaw Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Stanlaw Fitness, especially now during the quarantine. I haven't had the pleasure of visiting the studio, but Mike Stanlaw posts a workout daily for you to follow, focusing on a different muscle group each day. In addition to the workouts, which you can watch live or on replay, he also provides nutrition advice and is easy to contact for nutrition and workout advice. I am so glad Mike offered the online classes during the quarantine. In the short time I started doing his classes I lost 12 lbs and have also noticed a difference in my physique and energy level.

Fantastic experience: I was a somewhat new member of Stanlaw Fitness prior to the Covid quarantine but I must say I was really loving the gym and wish I had signed up sooner. I have been going to other gyms for many years but I felt like I needed that extra motivation to help me reach my goals and I found just that at Stanlaw. The trainers and owner, Mike are very motivating and supportive. Folks at all different fitness levels have the opportunity to do the workouts at their pace and I must say there is a great group of people who work out there. I personally do the group training classes but they also offer personalized 1 on 1 training. I give this gym a 5 star for motivation, results, cleanliness and a positive atmosphere. Give it a shot and I guarantee you will be hooked just like me.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Stanlaw Fitness is awesome. Mike really has created a great and friendly environment to work out and get healthy. He makes a point to communicate with each member personally and he's open to new ideas. He's really created an inclusive community.

Fantastic experience: Mike and his team at Stanlaw Fitness are incredible. I never had the motivation to workout before I joined, but now I'm so driven. Mike is the nicest person and will go the extra mile to help you reach your objectives. The classes are really enjoyable, and now with the online classes, it's even better! I also appreciate how clean the studio is. The equipment is always sanitized, and there are always cleaning supplies nearby.

Fantastic experience: I have had an amazing experience at Stanlaw Fitness since I joined. I was new to New Jersey and wanted a gym that was close by and where I felt secure. The staff at Stanlaw are very knowledgeable and friendly, and the trainers are both tough and kind. The other members are also very welcoming. I have seen results from my own efforts, but also from the dedication of my trainer Mike. He is willing to go the extra mile and check up on your progress if you want, and he encourages you to contact him whenever you need help. Stanlaw is not only a great place to work out, but also a place to make friends. If you're looking for a gym, you won't be disappointed with Stanlaw, and you can even try it out for a week for free!

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is AWESOME! The owner, staff and members are all wonderful. Everyone pushes you to do your best. I look forward to my workouts everyday. I would highly recommend stopping by and giving them a try. You won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: i've been a member at Stanlaw Fitness for about 6 months and can't stress how great the classes and personal training sessions are! In addition to the great workouts, the atmosphere is motivational and super positive. I could go on forever about how great Mike, the owner, is. He is always there, always super personable and truly has such a good head on his shoulders. He wants all of his clients to reach their health and fitness goals and treats every one of them with respect and compassion. He is constantly looking to improve the offerings of the gym and has such a contagiously positive vibe. I also love my personal trainer! Erin has been my personal trainer for 6 months and she pushes me hard. She's constantly switching up my workout and is super accommodating when it comes to scheduling. I've been a member of every gym in Bayonne and none of them compare to Stanlaw. I highly recommend trying it out if you're looking for a place that motivates you and treats you like family! it's beyond worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: This is honestly an amazing place! Mike and his team do an amazing job keeping their clients motivated, accountable and comfortable. Walking in there you feel like a part of the Stanlaw Fitness family. The group classes are so great and give you the motivation you might be lacking. I only joined for the challenge, but I will 100% be joining as a member! Thank you so much for all the hard work you do! Most importantly thank you for keeping your gym so CLEAN!!!!

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is a great place! Mike & his team do a great job of keeping clients accountable, sending tips and tricks, and the classes are highly motivating. I participated in the money back summer program and achieved my goal! Highly recommend this gym to anyone looking for some results. -Molly Z

Fantastic experience: Rob is an amazing personal trainer! I've only been training with him for about more than a month now, and I have already started seeing the difference in the amount of energy. He's always challenging you and pushes you to perform at your best. His sessions are always different so you'll never get bored and he's very knowledgeable in what he does. Every workout is intense but every workout is also different. Can not recommend him enough! Stanlaw Fitness is an awesome gym, and so far I am loving it.

Fantastic experience: What an amazing gym!!! Coming from someone who has tried dozens of workouts, gyms and classes, Stanlaw Fitness is by far my favorite. I've not only seen the most results, but I've build up the most confidence while working out here. Mike and all the trainers are great, it's not very often that you go to a gym where all the trainers genuinely care about you and your individual goals. I would 10000 percent recommend all my friends and family to join!

Fantastic experience: I have been at Stanlaw Fitness since about March 2018. It’s me and my three children. We have a workout session with Rob twice a week. The kids are never bored and the kids give me my reason to go!! They are having a blast trying new things and bonding at the same time! Our trainer Rob has always worked around kids baseball, theater etc. Ty Mike for accommodating our family life. It’s such a great positive training.

Fantastic experience: In the course of my adult life, I can't tell you how much money I have wasted on gym memberships that I never used. I started out self motivated, but lost interest pretty quickly. Last September I took my first group exercise class at Stanlaw Fitness, and for the first time EVER I am still motivated and excited about getting into the studio. After having 2 rotator cuff surgeries in the 12 months preceding my start, I was VERY nervous about challenging my strength and ability. It turned out to be the best health decision I've ever made. Mike Stanlaw and his team of trainers, have developed an atmosphere of support, encouragement, hard work, no judgment and FUN! At 58 years old, I am now stronger and have more energy than I thought possible. Since joining Stanlaw Fitness 6 months ago, I have lost 30 pounds, gained muscle that I never knew I had, and dropped my cholesterol by 55 points! I'm happy to be part of The Stanlaw Family!

Fantastic experience: Whether you’re a gym rat or a novice, like me, Stanlaw Fitness is the place you want to go to help you along your fitness journey. Mike Stanlaw and his staff are there to help you achieve your fitness goals. Not sure what your fitness goals are? Stop in and talk to Mike, he’d happy to help. I’ve been going to Stanlaw Fitness for a few months now and I can honestly say, I am so happy I took my first class.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout! The group exercise classes are fun and motivating. They’re fast paced and make you feel great. Mike, the owner, is awesome and works hard to make this a Gym you want to go to, even at 5am. The overall welcoming feeling that’s created at Stanlaw Fitness is hard to find, especially in big chain gyms.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Stanlaw Fitness since April 2018. I began with a fitness challenge, followed by 21 days for $21 & now I'm a member. It's the best choice that I've made for myself. I make Stanlaw a part of my day. I feel motivated each day to go there & once I'm there I make it count. However, it's not my motivation alone it's the owner, Mike & his excellent staff that make Stanlaw such a wonderful place. Mike makes it a point to make you feel like family. He greets you as you walk in & tells you that you're doing a great job on the way out. I highly recommend Stanlaw fitness to anyone of any age & all levels of fitness.

Fantastic experience: I started at Stanlaw in March with personal training. My trainers Rob and Michelle were great! They had me doing things I had never imagined I could do and I felt great! It's such a homey gym. Everyone is so friendly. It's nice when you walk in and the owner calls you by name! I've never been one to take classes but I thought I'd give it a try. And I loved it!!! The classes are amazing! You can jumpstart or amplify the fitness routines in your life! I had started my fitness journey prior to coming to Stanlaw but they really helped motivate me to keep going! Besides the weight loss, I am in the best shape of my life at 45! This is the one gym where I don't feel self conscious or intimidated. Everyone just shows up and has a good time doing the workouts. The age range and physical abilities are so broad but everyone is so friendly and motivating. You feel like part of a family more than a client. I'm looking forward to seeing this business grow! Mike Stanlaw and all the trainers at Stanlaw Fitness are amazing! Highly recommended!!!!

Fantastic experience: Where do I start, this gym is what I think about the perfect gym( Susana was right). It started with the location and excellent staff. Mike Stanlaw is a knowledgeable, professional and unique with the workouts. This place quickly moved to the awesome energy and knowledge that you take from the trainers here, they are eager to help and will take the time with you. The classes are intense for every level, the most you will enjoy is how diverse workouts combinations.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! Everybody is very friendly and supportive. I joined a little over a month ago and I am having a blast! My trainer Kelly is awesome and very knowledgeable. Both Kelly and Mike always seem excited about helping me achieve my fitness goals. In addition, the facilities are spotless clean and there is plenty of street-parking around the gym. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great supportive gym family!

Fantastic experience: Mike and his team of trainers are awesome for personal training sessions as well as their group classes. The gym is really clean and the location is perfect. I had a few friends who got into killer shape after working with Stanlaw which is how I found them and now having been working out with them, I highly recommend them for anyone else!

Fantastic experience: I recently signed up for a weight loss challenge at Stanlaw Fitness. The classes are great and the entire staff is not only friendly but so motivating. I did a few personal training sessions with Kelly and she is amazing! They are very professional and the place is spotless. I would highly recommend Stanlaw Fitness to anyone looking to either get back into their workout routine or to begin their fitness journey!

Fantastic experience: I just want to share my experiences at Stanlaw Fitness. First and foremost, Mike and his staff go ABOVE AND BEYOND to help me and all of the members. I have belonged to 2 local gyms in the past, but I never really went consistently. Just like many people, I “donated” my monthly membership fee. But at Stanlaw Fitness, I actually ENJOY going! Sounds crazy, right?! But it’s the truth! I feel like I really get something out of the classes, and all of the staff is there for you to answer questions or give advice. With my knee problems, the class instructors provide modifications to certain exercises, which helps out tremendously! The personal trainers (especially Kelly) are ALL very personable and friendly. Since joining Stanlaw Fitness, I feel better about myself, as I have always had negative thoughts about my body type. They have various classes at different times, which would help a lot of people fit it in with their work schedules. Mike is always sharing inspirational quotes and healthy lifestyle tips, regarding eating healthy or getting your 30 minutes of physical activity. Honestly, I hate to miss a class, even boot camp! And I won’t share my age, but I’m a Grandma! If I can do it, then so can you! Come try them out! I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: I would 1000% recommend this gym to anyone who is looking for personal training and/or small group training classes. This place is great. I've been going for about three months and I love it. Absolutely no complaints. The staff extremely friendly. My trainer is Jesse and she is the best. I receive text throughout my day from Jesse asking how I am doing and giving me motivation to keep pushing. When I train with Jesse, is on the floor with me pushing me. I've had such horrible experiences with other trainers being so distracted at the gym I USED to go to.. you will never have that problem here! The establishment is also very very clean. When I first started the prices were a little higher and I had already signed a contract for 3-4 months, but Mike readjusted my contract to the new lower price without me even asking. That really showed his character and I can say this gym is definitely where I'll staying!

Fantastic experience: Don’t let the For Rent sign on the outside of the building fool you. Stanlaw Fitness is alive and kicking. I admit that I at first thought that the building was empty because of the sign and didn’t explore the area for months in search of a gym, but I am more than glad that I decided to be adventurous and found the place. I’ve tried out different gyms here in America, and I finally decided to stick to Stanlaw Fitness. It has been the most enjoyable gym experience I’ve had here. It’s very different from the other gyms I’ve been to, which have all been run by corporations. It’s cozy and intimate. One may have second thoughts because of Stanlaw Fitness being smaller and having less equipment than other larger corporate run gyms. I was one of those people. However, let me assure you that they have enough equipment for good workouts that will bring about results. The strongest aspect of Stanlaw Fitness is their ability to effectively foster a culture of fitness and conscientiousness. The problem that I had with other gyms is that I just couldn’t be motivated to go run on a treadmill or do workouts. This is why I believe the most important part of the gym is not how much equipment there is or how good the protein shakes are, but how well it encourages its members to keep going back and working hard to achieve their goals. Stanlaw Fitness is able to achieve this in multiple ways. The trainers are encouraging and make you want to try more, pushing you hard but still watching out for your well-being. Personal training is offered for a fair price and is executed competently. The group classes are varied and fun. Mike e-mails the members every Monday to get their 30 minutes of exercise in and shares relevant articles on fitness. You feel that you’re being watched out for. One of my favorite things about Stanlaw Fitness is how meticulously clean it is. That was one of the first thing I noticed about it upon seeing the studio for the first time. It’s aesthetically beautiful, and the whole feel and layout of the place makes you wanna workout. However, the thing that really impressed me was how Stanlaw Fitness was able to instill the habit of cleanliness in their clients as well. Like I’ve mentioned earlier, I’ve been to other gyms, and I rarely ever saw people wipe down their equipment. In Stanlaw Fitness, the clients always did so, keeping the place pristine and sanitary. The other thing I like most about Stanlaw Fitness is how friendly the people are. The trainers know and greet everyone by name and reply promptly to texts and e-mails. The clients know each other. You feel a sense of friendship in the gym, and it encourages you to keep coming back. I used to go to the gym only once or twice a week, sometimes none at all. I like Stanlaw Fitness so much that I now go to the gym at least three to four times a week. I recommend the personal training. I have been sorely disappointed with the personal training I received in another gym, and Stanlaw Fitness showed me how good it can get. A big shoutout to Kelly, who has been an amazing trainer. She’s very friendly and sweet while being serious about her job and pushing me hard to achieve my goals. She’s easy to talk to and very encouraging. I was not able to see results after three months in other gyms, but I lost five inches and five pounds in one month with Stanlaw Fitness. I can also run for thirty minutes on the treadmill now, something I never knew I could do because I used to feel exhausted and spent by ten minutes. I used to dread exercise and feel very lazy, but now I enjoy it and look forward to it. You are not a stranger in Stanlaw Fitness. They involve themselves in your life rather than being a distant bystander. They work hard with you and celebrate with you when you achieve your goals. They have the human touch that corporate businesses lack. I only have good things to say about Stanlaw Fitness. If you want to achieve your goals and have a good time, go to Stanlaw Fitness. You won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is truly one of a kind! From the trainers to the members, everyone is very friendly. Group training is a great workout and Mike and his staff are super encouraging and committed to helping their clients achieve their goals.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Stanlaw Fitness since it opened a year ago and have worked with Mike in the past as well. He's a terrific trainer and knows just how to push you and get you motivated. The space is clean and has enough equipment so that each workout is different and it never gets boring. I've taken the dumbbell class and enjoyed it as well as the one-on-one training sessions.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is not your average gym. It's a super comfortable environment with knowledgeable trainers and great clientele. Everyone is extremely welcoming...judgement free zone! Classes are fun and effective! Mike is the best! Not only an amazing trainer but also an amazing person. He genuinely cares about his clients, their health, and their results!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Mike for 7 years, and the first things I noticed about him are his commitment and dedication to his role, his positive energy, and his ability to identify his client's strengths and building on those strengths. Opening Stanlaw Fitness seemed a natural progression, from the attention to detail in the facility, the classes, and most of all, his attention to client's goals . He has a first rate establishment with great classes and trainers, in a positive, fun atmosphere, and no doubt, you will also get an effective workout that will make you coming back for more!!!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Stanlaw Fitness in Bayonne ever since it opened in July 2015. There is simply no comparison to other fitness centers in the area. It's a great environment, the staff is all great, and I've been able to see real results. This center is clean, safe, and fun! There are always friendly faces to be found. Mike, the owner is awesome! He takes the time to know his clients and gives such good advice, he keeps you motivated and wanting to come back for more! If you are looking to get in the best shape of your life I highly recommend Stanlaw Fitness! Come on what are you waiting for!!!

Fantastic experience: Last summer, I signed my 15 year old son up for some classes at Stanlaw Fitness. I was concerned at first because he was too old for the youth class and would be working out with the adults. However, after the first class my son felt right at home. Mike not only help to improve my son's physical health but he also encouraged him and greatly improved his self esteem. I would recommend Stanlaw Fitness to people of all ages. The atmosphere is very inviting and warm. Not to mention the trainers are awesome!!!

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is a great studio and Mike is an awesome trainer and owner! I've trained with Mike for a few years now and have been really happy with the results. I trained with him after my son was born and have been training with him now throughout my whole second pregnancy. I'm 39 weeks and we're still going strong! Mike is very knowledgeable, motivating and fun to train with. And he really helps you set and achieve goals. You will not be disappointed if you train at Stanlaw Fitness!

Fantastic experience: Really great place to get in shape without the hype or bs that chain gyms offer. Stanlaw Fitness will tailor a program for each individual and work with you to achieve your goals. The owner, Mike Stanlaw, is extremely knowledgeable about the nutritional and exercise needs of all types of people. I'm a middle-aged woman who went through weight loss surgery, and Mike knew enough about the type of surgery I had to speak to me about how I could best achieve what I want. The Zumba classes are great fun! There's a lot to do to be the best you that you can be, and I feel like a person and not a number at Stanlaw Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I have recently joined Stanlaw Fitness for personal training sessions and it has been one of the best gym experiences! My trainer, Jessica, is an amazing trainer and supporter. Jessica is super friendly and is always there to listen to any concerns I may have with nutrition and/or any workout. She makes me feel super comfortable/confident at the gym! She constantly is checking in on me throughout the week to make sure I am doing okay and always is pushing me to achieve my goals during our sessions. I have only been at Stanlaw for a few weeks and can already see results! The owner, Mike Stanlaw, also is extremely nice and encouraging! Mike really motivates all of his members at his gym. The gym is very neat and clean. I would recommend this gym to anyone that is looking to get great results in a comfortable gym setting!

Fantastic experience: Mike is the best! Both my sons started training with this past summer and have had his other trainers work with them as well. They are all excellent! They have changed my sons' mindset to both fitness and nutrition! They are so motivated now, they look forward to their workouts and enjoy sharing what they are learning from Mike with everyone who will listen!:) Not only is he a top notch trainer, motivator and all around good guy! He is an excellent role model for my 15 and 12 year old! I highly recommend Stanlaw Fitness! Mike and his staff are second to none!

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness under the direction of Mike is a great place to workout, with it's state of the art equipment and highly skilled trainers. Mike is a wonderful trainer who is very knowledgeable and passionate in the areas of fitness and nutrition. He takes time to assess your current condition and helps you to build a fitness plan tailored to your needs. His workouts have helped me to relieve stress and have also made me stronger. I recommend working out at Stanlaw Fitness for anyone who is interested in developing a healthy plan for life.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is a great locally owned workout studio. I don't like lifting alone, so this was the perfect fit for my workout goals. The owner Mike is extremely friendly, helpful, and accommodating as well as a star trainer. The studio is clean, the staff is friendly, and so far all of the clients are lovely and non- judgmental. If you love classes and workout programs opposed to lifting by yourself, this is the place for you.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness offers a wide variety of classes. They're all able to be tailored to your personal fitness level too. There's no worrying about keeping up with people when lifting weights or being intimidated by not knowing the moves. Mike encourages you to go as hard/heavy as he knows you can. They offer personal training that will kick your butt as well! I highly suggest it - especially for those that hate big chain gyms.

Fantastic experience: If you really want to get in shape, enjoy great group exercises and work with the most experienced group of trainers, Stanlaw Fitness studio is the place for you. They have great equipment, all brand new, the studio has a great size for group exercises and the classes are so much fun! Their personal trainers will work with you to achieve all your fitness goals, they are very professional, they take their time to teach you the exercises and work very closely with you. I will recommend Stanlaw Fitness studio to anyone who wants to achieve a fitness goal, you will enjoy be part of this amazing group of people.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is a great place to not only work out but to have a support system in place to guide you in creating a healthier lifestyle. There's never any pressure or guilt tripping. Just tools and motivation. Mike is a great trainer who helps people young and old, beginners to professional competitors. You really can't go wrong here. Everyone is very friendly and they offer free first time classes. The studio is clean, bright and inviting. Since it's a studio, it doesn't feel like a big box gym where you sign up and never go. At Stanlaw Fitness you always feel you get personal attention to meet your fitness goals. :)

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is a fantastic group exercise and personal training studio. I have been working with the Owner Mike Stanlaw since 2012 and he really cares about his clients and will do everything he can to help a client reach their fitness goals whatever they are. It is a true family atmosphere at the studio and highly supportive. Truly a judgement free zone. I have carried on working with Mike via FaceTime during the current C19 situation and it is amazing how effective the training has been even in this manner. If you want support to move forward on your fitness and wellness journey give Stanlaw Fitness a try. You will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Joining Stanlaw Fitness was probably the best decision I have ever made. Great personal trainers, staff and all work well together like a team. Joined back in June and Stanlaw Fitness has turned into a second home. Mike is willing to work and adjust everything to your need. It is not only about getting fit but more so staying healthy and developing healthy habits. I would recommend coming here and working out in either group classes or personal training to anyone and everyone.

Fantastic experience: Whether you are just starting off on your fitness journey or just looking to change things up, Stanlaw Fitness is the place to be. So many people commit to gyms but either lack the knowledge of how to achieve their goals or are unable to properly self motivate. Mike is extremely personable and knowledgeable and he and his staff are able to get you right to where you want to be.

Fantastic experience: Stanlaw Fitness is great local studio with great trainers who listen to you and work with you to your needs. Training with Yogi Mike has been an all inclusive experience with Yoga, kick-boxing, TRX and maces. His yogic drum can take you deep into meditation to relax your mind and body. Mike, the owner, is great as well and would follow up with each individual to track their progress and motivate them to reach their goals. Overall its a nice fun loving workout place that gets results. I totally recommend it.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Stanlaw Fitness to anyone who wants to look and feel great! My trainer is Mike and he's very passionate and skilled at what he does. My training schedule is super flexible and he's always readily available to give me great advice on training or diet even in the hours I'm not in the gym. He really seeks to fully understand your goals and makes it his goal to get you there. You'll become addicted to progress in no time when you join Stanlaw Fitness no matter what your specific fitness goal is.
