I've enjoyed my time at Advantage. It's done me a world of good. You have the best trainers for both competence and personality. Equipment is very up to date. Keep up the good hiring practices.

I joined APT in April to get ready for a physically demanding vacation we're taking in July. The staff and trainers are friendly, supportive, and very knowledgable. I would never have described myself as somebody that enjoyed going to a gym, but I very much look forward to my small groups and the team training sessions.

July '26: APT continues to be an important part of my week. The classes are well organized; the trainers develop small group workouts that provide challenges that are appropriately leveled, and help me work toward my fitness goals. I can't imagine going anywhere else.

I started going to Advantage Personal Training after I finished physical therapy for spine surgery. I needed to get muscle tone back that I lost during my illness.

I’ve never had a personal trainer before so I was a bit anxious and also skeptical if they would be able to help me.
Well, the trainers and the staff far exceeded my expectations of what I thought it would be like. They are all warm, friendly and inviting. The staff is quite professional, and the trainers are Superb.
I love using the equipment, the locker room is exceptionally clean as is the entire gym. It’s a pleasure being there.

I Look forward to going to Advantage to see my trainer twice a week. I’ve noticed a tremendous difference in my ability to walk again and regain muscle tone that far surpassed what I thought it was possible. I’m 75 years old and my body never looks so good. So thank you to Hunter, Ryan, and Brendan for all of your support and encouragement!!!

I have been regularly attending small group training at Advantage Fitness for several years now, and it's by far the longest I've ever stayed with a gym. The facility itself is excellent -- it's always clean and its equipment is always operational (if it's not, it's fixed quickly). But best of all is the staff -- the trainers are excellent across the board. I see several trainers due to a changing schedule, and Hunter, Brendan and Derrick are all excellent, professional, friendly and focused. This is, by far, the best gym I've ever attended.

I’ve been an APT (Niantic) member for over 20 years, and have introduced several friends to “my gym” over the years. I love my trainer; she knows me, knows my body, and tailors every workout for whatever my needs are on any given day. I am also happy to work out with any of the other awesome trainers when Jayne is away. APT is like my “hood.” I feel comfortable and well-cared for there. Check it out. Tell them Pam sent you.

I have been a member of Advantage personal training in Niantic for over two years. Prior to this I never enjoyed going to the gym and as most people I would start and then quickly stop going. However, this gym is totally different than any other gym I’ve been to. The trainers are fully aware of any physical limitations I may have and are always quick to adapt an exercise to ensure no injuries. I also attend group training classes during the week as well and have formed many friendships which makes it enjoyable experience I cannot say enough about this gym. It has certainly changed my life as I try to stay fit as I age. All I can say, this is by far the best facility.

I'm in my third year of small group training, and I love it. The trainers got to know me and my needs, the results have been all I could have dreamed of ... at 75, I feel great, optimistic and, yeah, bubbling with endorphins!

I have been a member of Advantage Fitness since 2019. I have had 2 knee replacements and thanks to Paul and Advantage Fitness I had very little down time. I honestly believe if it wasn’t for that program I would not have recouped as quick as I did. I give them an A+. It’s the best part of my day.

At Advantage Personal Training, you are welcomed into a premium gym experience. From the moment you arrive until you leave, you feel assured that you’re in the right place. I truly appreciate the personalized attention here. You have the option for one-on-one training, small group sessions, or group classes, all tailored to meet your specific needs. As someone with bulging discs, I appreciate how the trainers check in with me multiple times during each session to ensure my back is comfortable, making necessary modifications when needed. Additional perks include a shake bar, bathroom amenities, a supportive team atmosphere, and a friendly staff. Highly recommend. (Oh, and tell them I sent you because you even get referral perks!)

Do you want to go to the Cheers of gyms? If so, this is a place where everybody knows your name. And it’s just as amusing, believe me. Amazing trainers, sparkling clean, great patrons. Workouts are tailored for any ability and they will help you meet any goal, big or small. This truly will be the highlight of your week- I’m saying this about a gym, yes. So come in, take a tour and grab a shake from the smoothie bar. You’ll be glad you came. 😉

I can’t recommend Advantage Personal Training of Niantic enough. Large, roomy training space staffed with friendly and very knowledgeable trainers. Remote training is also and option. There are literally tons of kettlebells and dumbbells and you will never have to wait or share a piece of equipment. Plenty of aerobic equipment, too. You can train with a large team format or in a small team with up to three others or as a single one-on-one with a trainer. Take a chance, try ATP and see the results.

The trainers are exceptional. They get to know your overall health, your fitness goals and change the workouts so you never get bored. When you walk in they make you feel as though you are truly valued. I have been there a little over two years and going there is the best part of my day!

I started going to APT three months ago for accountability with strength-training. My cardio training has always been great, but despite good intentions, I seemed to "run out of time" for core and strength. The APT trainers provide top notch personal attention in small group settings where each client has his own personalized training program. Communication between instructors is excellent, so even if you are training with a different instructor, they already know your issues/limitations, training goals, and ballpark weights. Plus they closely supervise technique to be sure you are using the best form. Week after week I can see myself getting stronger! So glad I started coming!

I joined APT a year ago, I was not happy with myself and how I felt.. so I went to Calvin and told him "I want my high school body back!!" well a year later and I am almost there! I have never stuck with a workout program or gym for this long before. I cant wait to get up in the morning and go to the gym, the trainers are fantastic and they make you feel like you are a friend and are working out at home. They are very knowledgeable and very friendly and are always there to correct a form if needed. Basically they take Personal training to the next level!!

Want to give the team at Advantage a shout out - I had the opportunity to try rock climbing for the first time and probably wouldn’t have even attempted it if not for having been working with the trainers at Advantage this past year. I was able to do it thanks to the work we’ve done at advantage - thanks to the whole team!

11/10 experience from the moment I walked in! I was greeted by the receptionist at the check-in desk (Brooklyn). She was so sweet and welcoming! She even offered to make me a smoothie so it would be ready by the time my class was completed. My instructor for my strength class was Calvin, he was super personable and friendly! In the beginning Calvin even did an introduction just for me and everyone was so kind, I felt so comfortable and at home right away. At the end Calvin checked in with me to see how I enjoyed the class and told me I did a great job. The class consisted of 4 stations; the sets were 20 seconds on, 25 seconds off, 5x through. At the end we did a surprise cardio burnout with burpees and jump rope! This class is all levels friendly. It was a great full body workout! The space was so clean and offered lots of different equipment. I am a Philly gal, but my mom recently relocated to Giant's Neck Beach, I will most definitely be back whenever I visit! I discovered APT via the Class Pass app, and I am so thankful I did, I wish I knew about this gym sooner! I love knowing that I have APT right down the street!!!!

I joined this nurturing community one year ago. In that time, the physical changes I've seen in myself are exponential. They may not be visible to all those around me, but I feel it every day. I could never adequately express my gratitude to the staff and trainers, though I try every time I walk through the door. Professional, yet fun. Tough, but kind. My regular trainers have become like friends/family. Definitely one of the bright spots of any day, I highly recommend APT!!!

There are so many things that need to be highlighted about this gym!
1. The facilities are very clean and well maintained from the showers to the workout mats.
2. The business model really works! There are several options for large classes, small groups, or one on one. You can also come in and use the gym for a personal workout.
3. The smoothie bar! The smoothies are delicious and a great post workout recovery option!
4. The gym is locally owned. When you workout here you’re supporting the community.
5. Saved the best for last. The staff here is incredible! Every trainer is motivated and invested in their clients. The manager is kind and always willing to help. The staff is excellent at what they do.

I love working out here and I hope this review is helpful!

Advantage personal training is the perfect gym. They have something for everyone. Whether you’re looking to lift heavy or simply move your body, they have the equipment and the expertise to help you meet your goals. I moved to the area from out of state and went to every gym in the area to scope out my options. On price, services, and staff - Advantage was the clear winner for focused training. Since I joined 3 months ago, I have been over 90% consistent with my workouts (life happens- I’m not striving for perfection!) and that’s mostly because I know the staff will notice if I’m not there. They care about my goals as I do and help hold me accountable to them. I’ve enjoyed both the small group and large group training. Perhaps best of all is the community and spirit of the gym. Members make an effort to welcome new members, learn your name, and foster a community of support - and that’s incredibly rare in a gym. Truly, I can’t recommend them more!!

Best decision I've made for my health and sanity in several years. I was a true fitness beginner and a little intimidated by gyms and trainers, etc., but the folks at Advantage were patient, understanding and supportive right from the beginning. The trainers really make an effort to know you and your goals, and the atmosphere is always supportive and upbeat. You really feel like you have a team on your side!

I've been going to Advantage for several years now and I love it for a variety of reasons. The trainers are extremely well educated (not just training certifications but related college and other professional degrees), FUN, and incorporate just the right mixture of encouraging and challenging clients to meet goals and knowing when to modify, back off, or rehab an injury. The facilities and equipment are top-notch and I love everything about the place! I even got my husband to join 🙂

I’ve been a member of APT for over 12 years now and there are many aspects that keep me so consistent. I like that everybody knows each other and are truly interested in how you are doing. The Team classes are fun and challenging, and the weekly changes keep me from getting bored. I also appreciate the variety of workouts on the white boards for when I want to exercise on my own. Most importantly, APT staff members have always accommodated and modified for any injuries I’ve had. As I get older, it’s important that I trust my gym to keep me active, safe, and challenged!

My wife & I have been going to Advantage Personal training for 8 years now. We absolutely love it there, due to the Trainers & also the Gym Family. We have made a lot of new friends @ Advantage. You see the same people there on a weekly basis. New clients are very much welcomed into the Gym Family, however not many current clients leave. With moving into a larger space, the addition of the juice/shake bar & the massage therapy in the same location there is no reason to go anywhere else. Your trainers and peers motivate you to do the work even on the days that you show up and you don't feel like doing it. I would highly recommend Advantage Personal Training to somebody who wants to get in shape and meet some great people.

Don't be fooled by the 5 stars...this is a 10 star gym!
Calvin and his staff are the most attentive, knowledgable, patient, and fun trainers I've worked with.
Calvin's facility is never overcrowded: you never have to worry about fighting to use equipment. They are meticulously clean, offer a variety of classes, as well as nutritional guidance.
Do not hesitate to join!
