I just got an offer as a gift through planet fitness for 1 free class with PushU and it expires on June 21st. I went online to look them up and it says they are temporarily closed. Disappointing. When will you guys be back open?

1st time there with a friend. It is small area with different workout rooms. Some equipments are old and out dated. Luckily it wasn't that many people there when we went.

Knowledgeable trainers, great energy and atmosphere. February made it a year I’ve been training with Tay and it’s been quite the experience. If you need a gym and a trainer that will push you past your limits come see the good people at Push U. You won't be sorry!

Best gym in Philly hands down! I’ve had personal trainers, but none of them will EVER top Justin, he’s great! All the trainers are truly amazing. Feels like one big happy family anytime I’m here, everyone is super friendly. Wouldn’t ever choose another gym💪🏾💙 …

I started training at Push U a year ago and in that time I’ve managed to achieve goalsI’ve struggled with in the past. I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been, and make smarter food choices thanks to the help of my trainer Justin. Justin is the best! He pushes me towards my goals and is very patient with me when I complain about workouts. If you are looking for a great environment with amazing trainers who care about your health and are very personable this is the place for you! If I could give them 10 stars I would!

I love PushU. They really do a great job making everyone feel comfortable, like a family . All the trainers are great, they are very knowledgeable not only with fitness but your overall health and wellness. My trainer Justin is amazing . He pushes me beyond my comfort level and reminds me I’m strong enough for these challenges even when I doubt myself . I would highly recommend this studio to anyone looking to get healthy and in shape .

I've done their challenge/contest, and been going here for Saturday bootcamp for about 5 months and training w/Josh (@elite.247365) for the last two. LOVE this place and pretty sure I've found my fitfam!Challenges: Sound at home workouts and nutrition - sooo many good results stories out of this. Go see their IG!Bootcamp: I burn about 25%-40% more than my normal Y classes(per Fitbit) & ittsa vibe - they occasionally have health related vendors and a DJ!Training: Josh always listens to what I need and comes up w/creative sessions for me and pushes me to do more than I think I can but is right there w/support.Facility: It's a boutique studio(smallish), that being said it has many sections AND a kid room which my 6yo has tested and approved. Parking is not an issue.

Do not train with Lamar at this gym. I paid him upfront. He trained me once then proceeded to cancel the next 6 sessions within 2 weeks. I asked for a very reasonable partial refund and to stop training with him since I was wasting my time. He agreed to the refund, then stopped responding to my messages. His training is a scam. I should never have paid him upfront.
