STRONGHOLD

Fantastic experience: This personal trainer is absolutely phenomenal. He is brilliant and approaches personal training with a combination of tremendous scientific knowledge and kind support and encouragement. He will take a person from almost complete lack of strength to six lack abs and superb muscle tone and he will do it for anyone of any age, including the elderly. He is enthusiastic and is the most terrific motivator a person could have. I would go to no place else but shredcore for personal training!!!!/counting my blessings!!!

I couldn't be happier.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality You will leave drenched in sweat and tears. You'll be sore in places you didn't know could get sore, but somehow you'll end up coming back again and again. Great class with challenging workouts, competent staff and friendly people.

Fantastic experience: After trying to be a gym person my whole life, this is the first gym I've been able to stick to regularly due to fun workouts and amazing staff! I go 3-5x a week and still after 3 years manage to be sore after every class. The classes switch up enough that every part of your body is hit weekly and differently. Stelios hooked me up with a nutrition plan before vacation that helped me reach my goal in a realistic manor. Strongly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Stronghold for over a year now and I have nothing but excellent things to say! You see results quickly. Stelios and Dave are an absolute pleasure to train with! They know exactly how to motivate you & push yourself! Out of all the gyms I have tried throughout the years, there is truly nothing like Stronghold and If I could give more than 5 stars I would!! Highly recommend! You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym trainers are great everyone supportive from gym members to staff. They really challenge every workout. Truly best gym I joined in years . They push who wants to be pushed and get the most out of you.

Fantastic experience: STRONGHOLD is one of the best decisions I've ever made. Classes and workouts are never boring, always challenging, never similar and dare I say – fun. Extremely knowledgeable staff - the advice about keeping your body as healthy as possible with recovery is priceless. Great stuff all around. Truly, a very special place. Glad I found it.

Fantastic experience: I have known of Stronghold for some time, however it took an injury requiring surgery to get me in there. I needed a place where I would be pushed to get back into the shape required of my job. Stelios and Dave are solid guys. There is always a thought process behind their programming. I’ve done CrossFit, & followed Mountain athlete among others, but nothing compares to Stronghold. My validation came two nights ago when I had to help carry an unconscious woman down 4 floors in a tenement and still be able to continue operating right after. If you are serious, this is the place you have been looking for....

Fantastic experience: I came to this gym after many surgeries and was very weak. Their personal trainers are dedicated to getting to know their clients on a one to one basis. They know how to adjust the routines based on how I was feeling for the day. They have helped me gain back my strength and made me stronger. I would highly recommend this place

Fantastic experience: Stronghold is the best gym I have ever been a part of. The trainers are one of a kind!!! They have the knowledge that is needed to give their clients the success in meeting their fitness goals and you will see results! You truly become a family here! Stelios has created a place where people bond through their efforts and hard work! No one is going to make you go to the gym but when you find a place and people who make YOU want to be there the results are limitless.

Fantastic experience: This is not your average gym! If you are not looking to push yourself to your limits this is not for you. Stelios does not compromise integrity for comfort. He has created a like minded community of true fitness enthusiasts. He will work you hard and demand a maximum effort but if you are willing to follow his guidance you will achieve the results you desire!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommended the staff and owner Stelios are amazing and make you feel comfortable no judgement at all while pushing you to your limit. You will see results fast as long as you stay consistent. Me and my friend come from port washington and refuse to go anywhere else! Stronghold is the best!

Fantastic experience: Joining this gym in September 2017 changed my life completely. This is a gym that challenges you both physically and mentally. Stel helps you become a stronger and better version of yourself that you didn’t know was possible. Coming to the group classes and with Stel’s nutritional help, I lost over 30 pounds and gained physical/mental strength I never believed I had. Words cannot express my gratitude for Stel’s professionalism, expertise, and dedication to his clients!!

Fantastic experience: Stronghold is a phenomenal gym. Stelios and his staff are so knowledgeable and caring. They made me feel like family. A great atmosphere to work out in and a very, very well-cared for space. They push you to your limits and then some. Just when you think you can’t do anymore, they motivate you and show you what you can really do. Results are what you will get with their training sessions. I know, because that’s what I got – RESULTS!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training here with Dave for about 1 & 1/2 years now. I love that I am given a custom workout, the flexible training hours, and tried their at-home workout plan too (which was great when my work schedule was hectic.) It isn’t like other gyms where you are “barked at” and can’t tell them you’re in pain, or how you’re feeling etc. I am pretty shy, but I have never felt uncomfortable here, which was important to me. As someone who has had commitment issues with other gyms in the past, I definitely recommend giving it a chance.

Fantastic experience: Absolute best workout of your life with a very knowledgeable staff!! You will be in the best shape of your life. All fitness levels welcome, they will modify all exercises if necessary. Do keep in mind you must earn your spot here so you must push to your limits. I am so happy I am part of this very positive community of people!! I HIGHLY recommend STRONGHOLD to everyone!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to this gym for quite a while and it has been the best experience ever. Stelios is an amazing trainer, and before I went off to a military college (The Citadel) I needed to get in shape for a rigorous military training. Stronghold is the best gym I’ve been to and I’ve never been so happy to be a part of such a great gym and family. I highly recommend this gym for anyone who is looking to lose weight, get in great shape, or are seeking to pursue a career in the military.

Fantastic experience: I’ve searched for a gym for years and finally found a place that I can say I LOVE! this is not just a gym, this a place that you get mentally and physically challenged. Never EVER the same WOD no BS no bells and whistles just SWEAT and HARD-WORK. Stelios and all the trainers are Amazing.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training for about a year in a half great intense training nothing but sweat and gains when training at Stronghold. Trainers are very professional and push you to reach beyond your goal. Gym is very clean and spacious. Definitely a great place to train and reach beyond all measures when hitting all types of goals.

Fantastic experience: This gym is not an average gym. It is beyond the workouts. Stelios and his staff push you to your limits and help you discover what you really can do. I have tried many gyms and this gym gave me the results and knowledge I was looking for. Amazing workouts, amazing facility and amazing trainers. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I went to West Hempstead to visit and I was fortunate to have stumbled across this place. The vibe and people are great. The trainers are knowledgeable and push you to get better. The classes are adapted to the needs and skill set of each individual student. I wish that there was a gym like this in Montreal!!!

Fantastic experience: The best gym I’ve ever trained at, and the best trainers I’ve ever worked with. Stelios (owner) has a way of making everyone feel welcome and immediately part of the family, and still pushes you to do the best you can do! Likewise, the clientele is extremely friendly and supportive. Great community! You will get the best workout of your life, and you WILL see results. Not only will you see results you will feel them. I come away from the classes feeling overall stronger and better about myself. Can’t say enough good things about this place, I would recommend to anyone and everyone!

Fantastic experience: I have never been to a gym/facility that feels like people actually care if you're making any progress. Stronghold gym gives everyone there such an amazing community. Absolutely no judgement from anyone and everyone is there to support one another. My personal training sessions are geared towards my strengths, weaknesses, and goals. One of my biggest concerns with workouts is doing things that are too difficult, at stronghold that's not the case. Stelios is very receptive to what people can do and what needs to be worked on. He never forces me to push myself past a boundary that can be dangerous. Which I have seen at other fitness facilities. There is no reason you should even question whether or not to come here. Just do it, you won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Stronghold for almost 1 year now and I could NOT be any happier. Stronghold is a family. It has been the best experience. Stelios is an amazing trainer. He pushes me to my limits daily. His clients are all positive and encourage each other to do their very best. Stelios cares about each one of his clients. I highly recommend Stronghold for anyone that needs to be motivated. If you are looking to get motivated and push yourself to the limit each time you walk in the door - this is the place for you.HIs staff is amazing as well.

Fantastic experience: I joined stronghold in October of 2018 and I have never been happier! Stelios is an amazing trainer, as well as all the staff, equally motivating and encouraging to workout with in group classes. Parking is never an issue and conveniently located close to home! Definitely learned to take the “I can’t” out of my workouts because at the end of each session i walk (or crawl) out surprising myself that I can and I did. It’s not easy getting there in the mornings but it’s a great feeling of accomplishment, time well spent at stronghold. Very accommodating with scheduling, keeps a clean facility and highly dedicated to helping you achieve your goals and he’ll keep a positive mindset.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Stelios is the best he pushes you to the limit to get where you want to be! I’ve made so many friends coming to stronghold, and aside from that, his workout have helped me grow both mentally and physically... beyond my expectations!!

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at Stronghold formerly Shredcore since July 2018 and I find that the exercises vary. They are not repetitive and the instructor makes the classes exciting so it's never boring or monotonous. It makes me excited to see what is in store each day and what I will accomplish. Stelios motivates us to not settle for mediocrity but to persevere.

Fantastic experience: Stronghold is amazing !! Workouts are intense push you every time. And when you feel like you can't Anymore Stelios is right there pushing you where you never thought you could go. I have had several trainers but Stelios is by far the best. He is filled with so much knowledge and makes every workout challenging. He and his staff really care about all their clients. They truly want to see you achieve your individual goals. I stated in February 2017 and I have lost at Around 90 lbs. which was not easy at all I started training 2-3 days a week now I train 5-6 days a week it’s so addicting you want to go and feel guilty when you have to miss a day.then you look on Instagram and see what you would be doing and it ruins your whole day because you missed something great. This is not your adverage gym it’s a lifestyle with likeminded people that have the same passion to try and be better than they were the day before. We are a family. If your looking for a gym to change your life and your body STRONGHOLD and Stelios are the best!!! Come train with us and you will never go anywhere else..

I have never felt so strong in my life, and I love getting up and knowing that I am going to a gym where its all about you bettering yourself and supporting the others around you, the trainers are amazing and they really know what they're talking about. Stronghold has changed my life for the better by not only changing the way i training but by also changing my mentality.

Fantastic experience: Stronghold is one of the best fitness experiences you can have. You will leave feeling AMAZING and looking forward to your next class every time. You will learn how to properly weight lift and have perfect form which is so valuable. I always feel motivated and wanting to push myself every class and I owe that all to Stelios the owner. He genuinely wants every one of his members to grow and get to where they want to be.

Fantastic experience: Called this gym to get some info about training for my 90 y.o. mother - while they don't offer off-site training, Stelios, the owner, could not have been more helpful in guiding me where to go for the services I require. Thanks, Stelios! Wish I lived closer as I would come train with you for sure if I did! =)

Fantastic experience: This place is incredible. Everything from the dedicated and knowledgeable staff, variety in workout programming, and well-cared for space is something to be admired. I've never been part of a gym like this. The trainers will work you hard...really hard. If you're looking for easy, I would certainly not recommend this gym to you, but if you're looking to work hard to achieve your individual goals this is the place to be. Stelios and his team will give you the tools to be successful: from insane workouts (modified for all fitness levels!) to nutrition to appropriate rehabilitation/body maintenance advice - they have it all covered. The clientele is great too. Everyone is friendly, approachable and there to put in the work!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing!!!! I love going to shredcore! Stelios and his staff are welcoming,knowledgeable and make me feel comfortable. His classes are intense and they get the job done. Regardless if your new to fitness or not, Stelios makes sure that every movement is explained and done correctly. Rarely,do we do the same workouts. He always thinks of different ways to make his classes fun and challenging. He's the best trainer I've had thus far. If you don't believe me,try him out. His first session is FREE! Once you have your fist session with Stelios,I doubt it would be your last.

Fantastic experience: This place is more than just a gym it's a family. The owner and coach, Stelios is truly dedicated to ensuring that all of his clients safely workout to their full potential. Before coming here, I wouldn't imagine lifting a chair let alone 125 lbs, but with this teams' help I can! So all in all I highly recommend this place. You won't regret it!
