I had been working out at best fitness for about 10 years before Covid19 happened and absolutely loved it. The staff made me feel like family and the gym was always so nice. Since Covid19 I was very timid about going back, this is now my second week back and all my worries have faded away! The staff is still those friendly faces, always greeting you and checking in. I thought the gym was clean before but now it’s impeccable! Thank you for always being the BEST!

I recently moved back to the Capital District and have been looking into a gym to sign up with and ultimately decided on Best Fitness after meeting with several of the staff. Not only was the staff welcoming and made the sign up process easy, but the price was very reasonable. I'm excited to start my personal training with Ben in the coming weeks and finally shed the weight gained during COVID!

Update 12APR21: Disappointed in the COVID regulations enforcement. However, both myself and my family and friends have been vaccinated so I am not stressing over killing them. I don't think the gym did well here, but at this point vaccinations will soon be almost halfway complete so updating the review. As always, you are responsible for your own actions and their consequences.Staff: I am VERY impressed with the staff at all locations. this is more important than anything in my book. I have issues in some areas, but none whatsoever. The staff always greet you and say goodbye. This isn't just during certain times, this is all times/all staff members.Equipment: Best in area overall. There are more than machines for each body part and the machines each have a different focus (I hate when a gym has more than one machine but they hit the muscle the same exact way).Value: Great value overall. If they could add a few massage chairs I would move in. I do like that about Planet Fitness, but that's about all they have on BF except for better hours too. Equipment is in good condition and well maintained.

I have been a member at this location for years. The staff is very knowledgeable and always willing to answer any questions. The gym is extremly clean both before and after covid. The members are respectful and friendly. I love how big the gym is, with plenty of equipment not offered at other gyms or best fitness locations. Everything this gym has to offer is top notch, 10/10 highly recommend.

Best Gym In The Capital Region! I have been a member at several gyms throughout the Capital Region and Best Fitness is the best! There is not another gym that compares to Best Fitness. Best has a variety of classes that will certainly be something for everyone. Their professionalism is a step above the rest. Especially now with COVID best has stepped up in a big way to help stop the spread. They ensure that all equipment is cleaned and members are social distancing. Look no further and join Best Fitness, you won’t be disappointed.

By far the best gym in the 518. From the staff right down to the equipment. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel like a member of their family. You walk in and instantly you feel at home and comfortable. Being the biggest gym in the area you are never fighting for equipment and you have so many options. I will never go to another gym! I love best fitness!

Best gym in the state of New York! Incredibly clean, the most welcoming staff, and the best group classes you can ask for. Everyone is very personable and very helpful. The gym is in pristine condition and the equipment/dumbbells are spotless. Everyone should choose this gym if they are looking to have a wonderful gym experience.

So glad I tried this gym! Staff is very welcoming and helpful. Trainers and instructors are engaged and encouraging. This is the cleanest gym I’ve ever been in. You see cleaning going on constantly. Great classes and workout areas. Reasonable fees also for what you get.

Best Fitness is a great place to work out. Sufficient equipment for all types of routines. The desk staff are friendly, engaging and professional. Some of the trainers are rude. Part of their job description is to engage with members and be pleasant. They are not. You say Good Morning and they don't even respond. Overall, the gym is a great place to work out and I would highly recommend joining. Just don't expect pleasantries from some of the trainers.
