Thanks to Tony for being such an awesome guy and giving such attention to his clients! We got really lucky meeting him outside one day and he's been nothing but inspiring ever since! Working out is actually fun! Thanks, guys!

At Focused Ambition I am impressed with the attention to detail that the guys show with the care of workout setup, then execution, and form during each session. Thanks for all you are doing.

This gym changed my life spiritually, physically, and mentally. I trained at Focused Ambition Training for roughly 4 months. My personal trainer was Tony Campbell. At the time I started, I was overweight, I was drinking more than I should've been, and I hadn't worked out nearly enough to be in any kind of shape. I was scared. I was nervous to trust this guy to "fix" all these problems and was embarrassed at first to admit I needed help. It was hard to walk in and admit for the first time out loud I was unhappy with how I looked and I didn't love myself anymore. Well, Tony Campbell and Focused Ambition Training changed my life.
First and foremost, what amazed me about the training sessions was that I got to learn about WHAT and WHY we were doing specific workouts. It wasn't just "do this workout", it was "we are going to target these types of workouts today because from your FMS screening we did before you started I was able to identify movement restrictions in this part of your body." No other trainer is offering FREE knowledge that you can carry around with you for the rest of your life. You learn as you work and when your time is done with the gym you have the ability to recall those things that you were able to learn. Next, Tony and Sydney were constantly learning and evolving to provide better services for the clients they had, and the future clients that would come in. Every other day while I was warming up I could overhear the next venture, next certification, next addition to the space, there was nothing off limits so that they could provide the very best for their clients. Furthermore, the flexibility they offered made it easy for me to work around my schedule. I'm a teacher, so M-F I am working till 3 o'clock (most times past that), and some days I coach soccer in the evening which can make my days feel really long. Tony was extremely helpful in building my schedule specifically to cater my needs and I know that he has offered virtual workouts for clients that may not be able to come in-person as long as that is coordinated ahead of time. Lastly, Tony and Sydney as people are about as good as it gets. They are two of the best men I have met, and I believe that they are the best two personal trainers that you will find in New Jersey. The vibe and energy of a gym is what kept me away from it for so long. I was scared to be judged since I didn't feel comfortable in my own skin, but I can promise you that I didn't ever feel judged while I was there. I was encouraged and motivated the entire time. If you have gotten this far in the review, take a chance. Walk in, get a feel for the gym and I promise you that you will not regret it. I could go on about how great they are for a while, but rather I will leave you with this. The door you’re scared to walk through is the one that leads to who you’re meant to become. At the end of the day, if you are reading this it means you are thinking about going to the gym and my advice is to just dive in. Make the leap and trust in these two trainers to push you past your limits and help you reach your potential. I can assure you that you will not be let down.

Overall great experience. I appreciate the individual focus provided by a tailored workout session in a private setting but also the various types of group classes for when I want to switch it up. Also my daughter loves the smoothies!

I’m 4 sessions in and my physical endurance and mental clarity throughout the week have been improving. The name makes complete sense. Focused Ambition is making me lock in other areas of my life outside of the workouts. I want to eat healthier and train throughout the week so I’m prepared as much as possible for the next class. After each class I feel accomplished with a positive midset to tackle the rest of the week.

I have been with Focused Ambition Training for just shy of 6 months. I decided on Sydney and Focused Ambition after seeing training posts in his gym, on FB of the powerhouse couple and learning that he did virtual sessions. I live in Maryland. Going to the gym on my own had a track record of inconsistency. I needed accountability. Sydney's virtual training was the incentive I needed. His workouts are no less intense because you do not have gym equipment in your home. He works with what you have from little to none. By the end of my session, I'm done. Yes, "over" is still my favorite part of the training. At age 63, I plan to remain vibrant, mobile and fit. It's a choice. I decide on me each day. Focused Ambition is a one-stop-shop with total body wellness in mind. I have traveled from Maryland to Sydney's gym on two occasions. I have had my body composition taken, had a total body workout each time, a massage and even a short 5-minute relaxing meditation. So from the comforts of your home or onsite, Focused Ambition Training provides a total wellness program customed to fit any need.

By far the best facility around if you’re looking for a great trainer. The location is perfect, it’s a safe clean neighborhood. The exercises are led by personal trainer who give hands on instant feedback and adjustments during the workouts with great encouragement. The music is good and the atmosphere is awesome. It’s also a very clean gym. You will not do the same workout twice and if you go you will see the results you are looking for As long as you eat healthy in addition to working out. I also enjoy the sauna followed by a delicious protein drink freshly made. It’s a life changing gym experience and I recommend it highly to all my friends and family. i go twice a week and ready to go three times a week. The schedule times are very flexible and fit my work life.

Sydney is an amazing trainer who has helped me to accomplish the goals I set out for at the beginning of our consultation. His work outs are a great mixture of cardio and lifting that helps to maximize muscle building and fat burning. Highly recommended for anyone trying to begin/continue their gym journey!

I started training with Sydney several months ago and could not be more impressed. I was looking for someone to help take the dread out of my workouts and he does just that! He switches up the exercises so you don't get bored, pushes you beyond your limits and keeps the workouts fun. I also appreciate that he also focuses on recovery and you can grab a protein shake on your way out of the door! One final thing-- you get RESULTS! Truly goes above and beyond for his clients.

I started investing in myself at Focused Ambition Training in 2021. I was always afraid to go into a gym and have a personal one on one training, Sydney made me feel comfortable and helped me to focus on my eating. The encouragement goes along way!! After I dropped 25 pounds I stopped going for a few months thinking I could be consistent without the training however it didn’t work. Long story short, I went back in June of this year and I already feel the difference in my body, I’m more motivated and more conscious of what I’m putting in my body and how often I’m being active throughout the day.

Focused Ambition has helped me regain my motivation for working out. Sydney creates a variety of workouts that are challenging and effective. I feel stronger and overall better. He trains with balance--pushing you to the next level with motivation and not intimidation. He genuinely wants to see your success.

I’d honestly recommend Sydney to any and everybody. He has experience in psychology, nutrition, and fitness and therefore offers a comprehensive and holistic approach to the training my husband and I receive from him. His prices are reasonable, his personality is personable, and the space is enjoyable. I’m someone who usually dreads workouts, but I look forward to my sessions at Focused Ambition. I’m so glad I went with Sydney as our trainer; I don’t know that any other trainer would have been able to educate and motivate me the same way. Let me say it like this: Sydney don’t play😭 If you want to finally take control of your body and do better for yourself: GO HERE!
(Side note: his training plans include meal plans, which people usually charge extra for, so it’s really a great deal when you put it all together.)

Great atmosphere here! I’ve been a client since October and it feels like we’ve all been friends for years! I’m already 35 lbs lighter than when I started and I have muscles again. Trainers are very attentive and flexible and will work with your schedule as well as whatever physical limits you may have. I absolutely love this gym and the people who work here. SIGN UP TODAY! You won’t regret it.

I’ve been training with Sydney for almost a month and during that time he has motivated me to do better. I ship out for basic training December 30 and I need all the motivation and help I can get. Everyday that we have met up to workout there is always something different to do. It’s good that the workouts switch up because it keeps it fun and exciting. Thank you Sydney for helping me get prepared for training.

This is my first time having a personal trainer and it’s one of the best decisions I have made for my weight loss goals. I was initially intimidated to get back into the gym postpartum but Sydney has made this fitness journey reassuring. I will be recommending him to family and friends.
