Great facility, excellent group training. BFITT is the best deal in town. HIIT programming that challenges you and builds strength. Childcare is awesome. Thank you to those that watch our kiddos so we can take care of ourselves! I am so glad I joined!

Awesome gym, it's very spacious with just about every type of free weight, machine, and any other piece of workout equipment you might need. Friendly atmosphere too. I haven't had any bad experiences with staff or patrons within the gym.I'm also giving bonus points because they have battle ropes and Astroturf with sleds, which is a huge positive especially if you are military and need to train for the Army ACFT. Sorta unrelated but the placement of the gym is great if you want a nearby snack right after your workout or to pick up groceries.I haven't tried any of the classes they offer but from what I hear when they are going on or when I occasionally glance in on one while walking by they look like they are fun and full of energy.Now, for a few cons which is why I took a star off. These aren't huge deals nor would they make me cancel my membership but are worth noting. 1. There is no inside or outside running track, for a gym this big and spacious you'd imagine there would be something other than treadmills/cycles. 2. Depending on the time of day it can get very packed, which is saying something for a gym this big. This isn't usually a big problem but on some days, right after work, it feels like a sea of people and worse, a sea of body odor.3. No late hours and shorter hours on the weekend. Most people won't mind this but night owls will be a little bummed and those with busy lives looking to get in a workout later at night when they have the chance. 4. No power smoothie bar. This one is definitely me nitpicking but come on, it's a fantastic idea. The gym would pull in so much extra money. I miss being able to hit a hard workout and rewarding myself with a power smoothy blend on my way out the door.In summary, excellent gym with a few small caveats. Completely worth the money and great atmosphere to get in shape with friendly staff.

Horrible customer service. Gym is mainly cleaned most the times I went. I signed up for a year membership. Well they don't tell you that after a year, they keep charging you even though your contract states a year. Well then I call to cancel, they charge a cancelation charge, and 2 month monthly free plus a other fee. It's insane. So I blocked them from charging my credit card anymore. Then my husband had 4 charges so he called to inquire, and the lady had no idea what the charges were for. Manager was suppose to call him back but never did. So we canceled his membership after 8 years. Go far far away from this place. They're all about money and hidden fees. You're better off at planet fitness. Will NEVER recommend this place to anyone. If you cancel your membership, be sure to block your bank from letting them charge any more money. They will keep charging as long as possible. Worst customer service.

Best fitness schenectady is the greatest gym experience I've ever had, it is the largest floor in the capitol district, so not only is there an immense amount of high quality equipment, but also the community is great and supportive!

Nicole alone gets a 5 star review for managing this gym. She is the kindest, most fair manager I’ve ever spoken to at a gym. She promotes a safe environment which as a woman I can’t speak to the peace of mind this gives me. She called me tonight to check in since I’ve joined the gym and signed up for personal training. She loved hearing about how great I’ve been doing since being paired with Danielle. She also took the one small complaint that didn’t affect me much, she took it very seriously and made me feel valued for bringing it up.Danielle also deserves a 5 star review. She has gotten me the closet I’ve ever been to my dream body. She’s given me the best advice I’ve gotten on nutrition that doesn’t involve me tracking my calories (not possible for me)Overall I’m so glad I made the switch from Planet Fitness. I’ve seen amazing results and never plan on going back!
