FIT Lab is a very well run, boutique gym where the focus is on personal training and small group training. My wife and I have done both at FIT Lab and are very happy with our results. The owner Greg cares about his clients and Jason who I train with has gone above and beyond and has been patient with my difficult work schedule. Jason knows so much about the human body, he should have a medical degree in addition to being a trainer. Couldn't be happier with my experience here!

The Fit Lab team is the most professional and knowledgeable training team I've ever encountered. They are passionate about their work and take pride in making their clients healthier and stronger. I didn't realize what a difference training here over big box gyms would make- I feel healthier and stronger than I have in years and back pain I've lived with since college is fading. The gym is spotless and the other members are just as respectful as the trainers. I highly recommend checking out the Fit Lab, it's worth the self investment.

I have been working with Greg at The FIT Lab since early 2015. Having never worked with a personal trainer, I didn't know what to expect. I was quickly impressed with Greg's technical knowledge, nutritional advice, and dedication to his clients. Greg is clearly an avid learner and works hard to prepare individual fitness plans tailored to his client's goals. His emphasis on proper technique has been a tremendous asset for my workouts both at his gym and at home. He maintains an immaculate facility and is a consummate professional. He keeps his group sessions (usually 2-4 people) moving and varied so there is never a dull moment. I highly recommend training here.

Having been with the FIT lab for a little over a year now, there are several things this little Hoboken gym offers that sets it apart from the rest:For group classes at most gyms, there are usually at least 15+ people participating with only one person facilitating. It’s physically impossible for a trainer to focus on every individual’s needs even if they want to! At the FIT lab, I signed up for the small group training sessions. The group size has never been more than 6 people &, if there were 4-6 people per session, 2 trainers were usually present so everyone gets just the right amount of attention. In my opinion, it feels just as effective as “one on one” training sessions.Quality is more important than quantity – I remember going in for a free consultation & Greg (owner of the FIT lab) emphasizing the importance of perfecting techniques before increasing the intensity of workout routines. Wrong form puts you at risk of injury & safety is their number one priority. At every session, they break down each movement within the circuits. Once you have the form down, they progress the movements so that you’re continually challenging yourself to become better & stronger.Customizable to your needs – the FIT lab takes the time to build unique workout routines based on your specific goals to achieve the results you want. You’ll never get bored with circuits because you’re often learning new movements/techniques & they’re rotated so it doesn’t lose effectiveness. There were instances where I needed to shift my schedule to do sessions on back-to-back days – Greg always made sure that the circuits were designed so that I wasn’t doing the same routine two days in a row. Another time, my sister was experiencing discomfort in her back from sleeping the wrong way -- they carefully modified the workout accordingly & monitored her closely to ensure she wasn’t exacerbating that pain. There is always a lot of thought in everything they do for their clients which you can’t easily find in other places.Impressive range of expertise across highly qualified trainers – the sessions I’ve been in are usually led by either Greg or Jason or both. Greg goes above & beyond for his clients. He lives & breathes his business. For most gyms/personal trainers, your interaction stops after the session is over – this couldn’t be further from the case with Greg. He interacts as much as possible whether it’s via emails on helpful health articles/books he’s read or analyzing a client’s food log & sharing insights on what to tweak in their diet (i.e. if they’re trying to lose weight, improve energy levels, etc.). Bottom line, he truly CARES about his clients & it shows. Jason is an amazing & fun trainer. In group sessions, he’s incredibly engaging & explains each circuit in great detail. He’s attentive to form & lets you know exactly what muscles you should be feeling with each movement. I’m never struggling to understand what I should be doing at my workout sessions which is something I really appreciate!You’re not joining a gym, you’re joining a family – in the past, I always preferred working out on my own. Group sessions just weren’t my thing & I really took a chance trying this out at the FIT lab. There are certain peak hours for group sessions so you really get to know the people who show up at the same set time as you. There’s an opportunity to connect with people who all have the same goal of maintaining a healthy lifestyle, encourage one another during the routines, & share laughs about work/personal life all at the same time. As someone who didn’t always love the idea of working out, I can honestly say that heading to the FIT lab after work is something I look forward to. I’m energized by the comradery of my FIT “family” & I’m beyond inspired by Greg’s passion as well as commitment to do whatever it takes to see his clients reach their fitness goals (whatever they may be). If you’re looking to improve your lifestyle & build new friendships in the process, this is definitely the right “FIT” for you!

The FIT Lab is the perfect "fit" for anyone looking to lead a healthier lifestyle. My husband and I have been training at the FIT Lab for about two years now and continued to be challenged and motivated in every session. Greg and Jason are passionate about what they do and it is shown throughout each workout. 10/10.

The Fit Lab is perfect for anyone looking to up their fitness game or those just starting out. The trainers are extremely knowledgeable and dedicated to helping you reach your goals. I've been training there for over a year individually and with my fiance and highly recommend for couples.

After exercising on my own and working with other personal trainers, I came across The Fit Lab and started exercising with Jason a little over a year ago. It was immediately clear to me the knowledge and expertise of the owner and coaches was a notch above the rest. Each session is well thought out based on my individual goals and needs, while still being challenging. I appreciate that Jason spends a good amount of time focusing on proper form and technique, something previous trainers had not done.As someone that suffers from chronic back and neck pain, it is nice that the coaches always make sure to check in and see if I am in any pain before or during a workout. They will also go out of their way to follow up sessions with helpful resources via e-mail. Jason and the team are compassionate and truly care about helping their clients achieve their fitness and health goals. I would recommend The Fit Lab to anyone looking to get in shape in a comfortable and fun environment with trainers that are passionate about what they do.

I’ve joined many gyms over the years (regular gyms, crossfit, barre, etc.) and worked with many personal trainers. While each is different, I’ve found that The FIT Lab offers higher quality training and more balanced workouts. Greg and his team truly are top-notch, knowledgeable, professional trainers. Trust me… I’ve done the legwork (literally)! After 8 months at The FIT Lab, I’m continually impressed with the attention to detail that goes into each session’s program. Workouts are varied and appropriately challenging. The trainers actually do pay close attention to form, and they create a positive, encouraging environment around health and wellness (without the pressure tactics).Equally important, the atmosphere and people at The FIT Lab are what makes it awesome. If you take fitness and health seriously, but don't take yourself too seriously, then this is the place for you! I always look forward to my two sessions each week; they brighten my day and leave me with a sense of accomplishment. I’ve found small group training to be much more fun than personal training because of the camaraderie. Bottom line: The FIT Lab offers superior quality, balance, and great people to boot! It’s not the cheapest option out there, but it’s about the value. Coming from a girl-on-a-budget, I can say confidently that it is absolutely worth it.

I've been working out at the Fit Lab since September 2015 and started as someone, like many others, who dreaded the thought of working out in any form. I began doing the one on one sessions and then moved onto group sessions w/in 6 months. Greg and the team at Fit Lab helped me meet some of my early weight loss goals (and do so properly), learn to train properly with a focus on technique, improve some of my decisions outside of the gym, but most importantly, made working out something I look forward to(which I thought would never be possible).Not only do Greg and the team provided great in class training during each session, but they also clearly spend a lot of time prepping their workouts to be catered to each individual and group each week, as each session clearly has plenty of thought put into it.I highly recommend the Fit Lab to anyone looking for an effective, safe and dedicated workout plan.

Joining the Fit Lab was the best thing I ever did for myself. I have tried other gyms and training services in the Hoboken area, but never felt I got my money's worth until coming here. Greg's expertise goes above and beyond the physical exercises you do during a gym session. Not only does he teach how to properly perfect the exercises so they benefit you, but his robust knowledge of nutrition opened my eyes to various ways to better my health that's catered to my personal goals. Greg is always an email away and willing to answer any and all questions. The Fit Lab is a great place for anyone who feels they are in a rut and ready to take accountability to create a healthier lifestyle. Highly recommend!!
