The Fort | Manhattan Strength Training Gym & Classes With Barbell

Fantastic experience: Best trainers, workouts , overall energy. When I joined I was at one of my lowest points in life . Through the classes and mentorship , my body , mind and life in general started to shift for the better . Thank you to Dan for being so patient and kind when I first signed up , and to all the amazing coaches that work there.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in from Chicago and hands down one of the best workouts I’ve had. Everyone/everything is five stars! Extremely CLEAN gym, supportive members, and most importantly the coaches motivating each member and providing each member the attention to detail with the prescribed movements to allow you to get an amazing workout in without compromising form. Will definitely be back every time I’m in NY!!!

Fantastic experience: I joined the Fort around 10 months ago - it has exceeded my expectations across the board. The trainers truly love what they do and the energy during each session is unmatched. I had been working out with a personal trainer twice a week at another gym before I joined but wasn't happy with my progress and the workouts felt very stale. The small group workouts at The Fort are the perfect environment and each workout challenges you. The Fort is unlike any other gym I've ever been apart of.

Fantastic experience: The Fort is for EVERYONE! I started working out at The Fort 11/2021 and I have lost 60lbs in about five months. I only start with the weight loss component because I know for a lot of people “weight loss” is such a strong motivator for starting an exercise program. For me, weight loss has just been a bonus to my experience at The Fort. The community, the exercises and progressive training regimen (changes every four weeks), the flexible schedule (first class at 5:30am, last class at 8:00pm), the great music, and the supportive coaches are just some of what you get at The Fort. The owners Dan & Kyle have created such a unique, all-encompassing, challenging, and fun training format that makes you want to workout every day. The small class size and one-hour full body workout allows for better instruction, and every week you will see progress in your form, movement, body composition, strength, or whatever your individual goals are. ALL of the coaches are impressive, dedicated, genuine, passionate, and maintain a certain command for execution and results, which is superior to any training I have ever experienced before (I’ve tried a lot); they are here to help you be better. *Better is truly defined by you.* The training you receive at The Fort extends past the gym and positively impacts your daily life. Don’t be confused, the workouts are tough; but it’s you against you! The podcasts, newsletters and training tips are practical and help you stay on track and remind you that you are not alone in your health journey. I cannot express enough gratitude for the positive influence and catalyst for change The Fort has had in my life. To drive home my point, I do not even live in NYC, but I shifted some things (…my entire AZ life), so that I could take advantage of the opportunity to train at The Fort and take back control of my physical and mental wellbeing! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: The community is awesome. I have been working out a lot for many years, but haven’t ever been so happy. All trainers are genuinely enjoying why they are doing and are having fun while doing so. And everyone enjoys pushing their bodies in the best day possible. This creates an amazing atmosphere. Can’t recommend the Fort more!
