Gutes Oldschool-Gym mit sehr leckeren Proteinshakes. Tagespass dennoch teuer. Wenig Brust-Maschinen, aber ansonsten geile Geräte

This place has been scamming me for almost 2 years at this point.
First off the gym signed me up TWICE back in 2023: they charged me for a full year and monthly.
I complained to management several times to indifference and promises it would get personally dealt with by the owner. Nothing happened - I kept getting charged monthly and I obviously never renewed my yearly.
Now it’s 2025 - Im still being charged $52 per month, and every time I go here to try and cancel I get a paper note and nothing confirmed I’m cancelled.
I will try again and have recorded evidence of me trying one last time before I take my next step.
I’m tired of getting ripped off.
To avoid being charged indefinitely I will cancel my credit card you are charging as my final last straw if my next in person doesn’t cancel this account, and you can take my arse for collections.
Bear in mind I will use this review as evidence that I have been trying to contact you many times both in person and over the phone to cancel to no avail.
EDIT: the gym finally agreed to stop charging me and officially canceled my membership.
I’ll take a point back for at least doing this, but still…the amount of hounding I did is a lot. This should have been nipped in the bud in October 2023.

Trained here for 3 days during my recent trip. I train very early in the morning so place was quite empty. Lot of good equipment, cool underground vibe, I really liked it. Staff was also very helpful and welcoming. Day pass of 30$ is a bit steep but beats hotel gym and I enjoyed lifting here.

TLDR: A gym that’s easy to sign up for but beware of their terrible cancellation experience. It can be very shady.
While the price and the gym are solid, that's not all the gym is. The gym is also a business and I think the owner should rethink how the business side is run. I hope the owner is a smart person and can take constructive feedback well.
They use an external company to handle memberships and billing. SCAMMY is the nicest adjective I can find (without losing my temper) to describe this side of the gym experience. The gym provided me with an account number when I signed up which the external billing company conveniently couldn't find when I called to cancel my membership.
I'm still in the process of my cancelling my account as I write this.

They have a Nautilus pullover machine. The legit, old-school chain driven one; Dorian Yates Blood & Guts style. The place could literally be on fire and I’d still rate it 5 stars from that alone. Owner or whoever in charge of the equipment knows what’s up.
Jokes aside, place is kept clean and they have a nice selection of bodybuilding-oriented equipment. I highly recommend trying the pullover machine, plate loaded chest fly and the panotta low row if you’ve never used them. The stretch and squeeze is unlike any other exercise. The vibe is very hardcore yet friendly. And unlike many “hardcore bodybuilding” gyms the bathrooms don’t stink like roider piss (if you know you know. If you take “vitamins” please get your liver enzymes checked cuz we can smell it).
Goes without saying that they also have squat racks benches a dumb bell rack etc; the basics. Cable station with rowing and pull down area and lots of fun attachments. There is also a stretching area. Went at 5pm on a Sunday and was not too crowded either.
This spot is in the middle of Times Square basically though, so day pass is like 30 bucks and I’m assuming everything else in there is priced accordingly as well but I didn’t try the shakes or buy any of the protein bars so i wouldn’t know. Front desk guy was super helpful with everything and kind.
If you’re a fan of Arthur Jones’s HIT style training, this is the place to go based on the machines they have available. They got lots of gadgets and gizmos in there where you can just lock your body in and take a muscle group to absolute failure and beyond.
My only nitpick is I wish they had a high row machine. They have a hammer strength chest supported row and a panotta low row but I feel like a plate loaded high row would make this gym feel complete.

Walking in after going to so many gyms for the last 25 years or so. Has left me with a very sort of a "WOW" about this place.. Was paying 100 monthly at Crunch, and that was with a discount from a friend.. But still with all these "Great" service they provide.... They cant even compare to the vibe at MIDCITY. From the owner Vinnie. To the rest of the staff...EVERYONE IS SO KIND. Not every place is perfect..But this one almost got it lol...

This is the best gym in the city for people who are serious about getting strong. Love the clientele and staff. Great equipment and I rarely have to wait to use the machines. I didn’t know how lucky I was to be here until my friend took me to an Equinox — totally confirmed that Mid City will be my home gym for as long as I live in Manhattan.

I went to this gym in 2023 Jan for 5 times. The Frontdesk helped me start a one month plan and promised me they will not enroll me for account or any kind of auto monthly payment. I never went back since 1/31/2023. Two years later, as of today, I found they kept charging me since 2/6/2023 for almost 24 month, $61.66/month, that's $1480 in total!. I called this gym today and they said they cannot refund any of the payment, told me to contact my credit card company for dispute.
I asked them to cancel my policy right away and they cannot do that either, since I don't have an account. Then I asked how did they get my credit card information for monthly payment in the first place. So I found they secretly saved my credit card info on the first day so they can keep billing me without any agreement that I signed.
Don't go to this gym since it's for sure a fraud.

The Arnold Calf Raise Machine sold me. Been using that and killing my PRs on the bench bro splitting all the way home. Good gym if you’re serious enough to show up & work out consistently. Then again any gym is. But don’t take my word for it. Sign up & get fit. A gym is a gym. This one’s got Euro Machines too. Can’t go wrong at all with that right?

Best gym i’ve been to in the city by far, this is a gym for people who are serious about working out. Most of the equipment is new and everything is clean which I love. The staff is super friendly and pleasant every time I come in and they treat me like family. They also have tanning which I use often and the booths are really nice. The locker room is spacious and clean. If you’re ever in the city and looking for a quality workout I highly recommend trying Mid City out.

Great gym, just a little too far from where I live. Only complaint is trying to cancel a membership here is horrendous. I purchased a monthly membership that was supposed to be easily cancelled with no contract. I tried to cancel the day or day before my contract was supposed to renew and not only did I still have to pay for that month but for some reason I had to pay the next month as well. I also couldn’t cancel on the phone or on their website where I signed up. I had to go in person to pick up a piece of paper with another phone number that I had to call. Why isn’t this number just provided over the phone or on your website? Otherwise great gym, they have all the equipment you could need but the cancellation process was criminal

Fantastic gym. I’ve been coming here for a few years now, I started as a complete beginner with basically no gym knowledge whatsoever and I’m now the strongest I’ve been in my entire life. The clientele range from beginners like me to world class body builders, and the owners have cultivated and atmosphere that’s welcoming and comfortable for anyone along that spectrum. Earlier this year after falling out of my gym habits and gaining weight, I decided to make a change and signed up for personal training. Since June I’ve been working out with AZ and Cassie twice a week and they are phenomenal at their jobs!!! They are so kind, so knowledgeable, and so fun to work out with. Again, I’m the strongest I’ve ever been and I owe it all to the two of them. They have taught me so much and have fully prepared me to continue my fitness journey when I’m no longer continuing training. I’m so so so thankful for the two of them and I’m so thankful for mid city gym.

First of all, the gym doesn't have enough light and space, it's the darkest and most depressing gym I've ever been to, being in a basement it doesn't have enough ventilation, smells like sweat and odor all the time, the bathrooms were so dirty that you cannot shower, the price is more expensive compared to other nearby gyms with new and updated machines, this small and old gym was never updated, it needs more weights and machines because everyone has to wait minutes for one to be free and to be able to train

I honestly love this gym and made this gym my home gym until I probably die or go missing. The staff are beyond friendly and the gym is kept immaculate at all times. With both the staff maintaining the gym and the members also helping out by putting their weights back making sure what ever area they were in looks the same as when they got there. Try also always add new machines and let the members know what they are getting. My only issues with the gym are extremely minor. 1 the gym closes wayyyyy to early at 10 pm and weekdays and they lack of steel plates. Otherwise I’m beyond happy every time I walk into that gym and feel safe and at home in there. Definitely glad I found it and also another selling point for me with Mid City is there’s never a crowd and I NEVER have to wait to use a bench or a squat rack which blew my mind. It’s the one gym where I can workout and not have to worry that’s they’ll be a crowd.

The price is much higher than it appears, because they will bill a large club enhancement fee a few days before your membership expires. Once you account for the fee, you'd be better off with a higher quality venue anyway. The fee is whatever management decides, and is administered by a truly awful billing company. I moved away, paid for 11 months of extra usage anyway, never used to gym, was never notified of the fee or given an opportunity to cancel instead, and the owner still wouldn't wave it when I called. I paid it, but feel no good will towards this place at all now.
Kind of a scummy way to run a business really.

Okay so I have been going for a couple weeks, so far not bad...but that also doesn't mean it's great either... i have a super biased opinion since in SoCal we have really affordable great gym options. Here in NY if you don't pay a decent amount that is roughly $69-$140/ month (which anywhere in California is preposterous) then your probably going to get a very mediocre gym. Which kind of makes sense here because I am under the impression that not a lot of people in Manhattan are going to the gym or at leased one that isn't attached to their building. Which makes this gym nice sense it doesn't get super packed. I have been able to get through my workout relatively quickly (mostly). Now for the meat and potatoes
Cleanliness: 7/10 the gym is kept, but doesn't feel clean
Equipment: 10/10 this gym has great equipment and lots of this you will not find in a typical in most gyms; i.e. Kabuki Strengths Hex Bar. For most people not necessary but cool if your a gym nerd
Vibe: 6/10 they have a bunch of pictures of very muscular body builders, which I think is mostly in poor taste. I personally don't find it motivational, more so Gate keepy. Oh the lighting is very night clubby and reminds me of a strip club. Not for me.
Crossfitters: Yeah there here, and yes they make everyone else know they are there. Doing their usual shenanigans (clean and jerk...etc.)
Squat racks: they have about 4 and one of those garage gym ones you set up anywhere. Pretty decent 8/10
Deadlift area: 8/10 they have a lof of real estate for DL's but probably not enough weights for 1 person maxing and 2 other people working out and lift relatively heavy. Comfortably probably around 4 ppl can deadlift at the same time. Ideally 3 though
Quality of equipment: 7.5/10 your not getting prestine things here, most of the equipment is old (still decent) but probably not as nice as the stuff you'll see at a typical gym, however they have a lot of equipment so that's a plus. But again it's not going to be in tip top shape. They have "Arnold's Original Calf Machine" (cool but) needless to say the ones they make in the modern day are substantial better. 400lbs feels like 300 lbs... probably is due to wear and tear. Anyways thanks for reading and I hope this helps on your NYC fitness adventure!

Update. I don't appreciate the rude answer from Mid city. That "annual" charge came out of nowhere! I only joined the gym 7 months ago so don't think you did a fair thing to take that amount from my bank account! The extra month charge is disgusting no matter who does it!
This is gym will take money from your bank account whenever they feel like it. They charged me $69 for "equipment improvements" and then when I called up to cancel my membership I was told that I have to give 30 days notice so I'm forced to pay an extra month even if I'm canceling my membership right now. What a disgusting dirty business it is! Do not join this place!

I joined this gym while I was in town for work for 2 weeks. // The front desk people are super-nice, direct and no BS. They sold me a reasonably priced (compared to the astronomical day pass charges most gyms in this city have!) two week membership that was perfect for my stay. This is a bodybuilders gym — so it’s not about standing around and gawking, the people here are no BS, and they are there to workout. I will definitely come back here next time I’m in NYC!

Wanted to get involved with body building but after ayyempts yo conmect wiyh owner via 2 emails, 2 phone calls and message left with emoyees, the owner didnt follow up with communication.

I honnestly though the gym would be better. For a one day trial at 25$US, it was just an OK... For a gym that is supposed to have many famous bodybuilders that trained there, I think it miss charm and love. It's too average and nothing stands out for the fate of the ordinary.

Beware of their summer special - It looks like an attractive deal but you won’t be given all the details!!
I paid $207 up front to have access to the gym for the summer months in addition to 4 personal training sessions. Was never told about an expiration date on the sessions - now I’m forfeited out of what made me even decide to give this gym a shot.
Also will not tell you that your summer special account will automatically roll into an expensive month to month enrollment starting in the fall. Now I’m stuck with paying for a gym that I never intended to pay for in the Fall - hence why I originally went with the summer special package …
Also calling the gym, you’re met with terrible customer service as they couldn’t even pull up my account info or didn’t want to .. was also told that I probably already had my four personal training sessions???
As if that is something I wouldn’t remember …
All in all - would not recommend this gym unless you have money to simply give away and are into poor communication.

not a bad gym ... but the staff constantly eat food at the front desk and in the hall smells of food all the time. it is not professional and interferes with practicing, because you constantly smell food!!! Please stop doing this . create a separate room for your staff so that they can dine comfortably and customers do not constantly smell food in the hall

Great gym which has a good selection of weights and machines. Everything you need for your weightlifting needs. It is also conveniently located close to trains/buses in Midtown.

I can’t thank the instructor enough for working with me at my level and giving me the motivation to keep trying on my own. She gives you the tools you already have like your own body and some simple weights. No need for a lot of gadgets at home. I will be back for a tune-up!

Great place to workout if you're into a REAL GYM! Place is super clean and everyone is respectful of each others space which is so important nowadays.
Michelle and Vinny are awesome and make you feel at home.

I love this gym..it gives you the feel of being a really gritty, serious place for weight lifters without having that stale iron, dirty, chalk filled ambiance. The staff is nice and it's located in the heart of midtown so it's pretty accessible.

THE spot in midtown for no-nonsense gym goers.
~$400 for the year in the same city where other memberships cost $250+ for a month.
Tons of equipment for proper weight training. Very friendly staff. Overall incredible value proposition.
Hope it can reopen soon from the COVID-lockdown.

This place is a historical gem full of pros and competitors in the world of body building. It’s not the prettiest, but the staff are great and the atmosphere makes you want to train harder. Arnold Schwarzenegger used to train calves here and they still have his machine that you can use!

Worst experience ever. They charged my card $300 after i left the gym and moved to a new city. The general manager (Adam Robert Karel) was not very responsive. Finally when i was able to get hold of him on phone, he was very rude and told me do what ever you want, i am not giving you a refund. His justification was that my membership was not cancelled and sent me a document that i did not sign, even though I went to the gym in person a month before moving out to make sure that my membership was cancelled and spoke with the same person who helped me signup. I talked with their financial department ABC financials who said that my account was inactive since Oct 3rd (3 months before these charges). Don't trust them with your credit cards. Wish i have read their yelp reviews, seems like there are lot of people who had similar experiences. Hope others can learn from my mistake and avoid similar experiences.

#1 bodybuilding gym in Manhattan. Barbell dungeon that gets busy after work, but amazing facilities if you're chasing the pump. Bow down and worship at the iron temple!

Great old school gym, really enjoyed my visit. Lot’s of famous bodybuilders etc have trained there which is cool. Couldn’t give it 5 stars as I feel $25 for a day pass is a bit steep.

No frills gym that still has everything you need. Towels not included but locker room is clean and showers have soap (no shampoo/conditioner). Staff are generally courteous. Members are there to workout, which is great. I never felt uncomfortable. Mornings aren’t too busy, not sure about other times of day.

Worse gym I ever been in NYC .
Equipment 7/10 not bad but not the best equipment if you are more professional .
The worse part is that the gym is so disorganized. In order to find a pair of dumbbells you have to look around for 2-5 minutes ...
This gym looks more like CrossFit place than a gym .
I suggest you try it out at least few times before you decide to become a member and regret it after like I did !!!

In town for the weekend and dropped in. This gym is amazing for anybody...but particularly if you are a bodybuilder. Anthony at the front desk was so friendly and welcoming and gave us a great deal on drop in plus protein shakes. The equipment is excellent and for a small(ish) gym...they have an amazing variety of equipment. People are extremely friendly and the facility is great...clean, nice changing rooms and spacious lockers available. Also, the protein shake bar/menu is so delicious. And, if you are on travel...they sell packets of high quality pre-workout and pump agents. They also sell Rich Pianas line of supplements (great stuff!) and bars which is not common to see in many gyms.

Incredible location, equipment, environment, staff, and members. Had a great time here. Possibly the greatest bodybuilder gym in Manhattan.I did a walk in with my wife. We had a great time. Staff and members engaged us and showed us some of the gems of the gym. Will be back!!

Overall I liked the gym - but I have to say I am disappointed by the false marketing tactics that the places uses to get new members. They promise "free months" as an enticement to sign annual memberships, but then they do not honor these promotions and try to argue their way out of them after you are signed with them. Unfortunately, I want to support this gym, but their false marketing practices make it not worth the trouble.

I took my first class and it was the Fit X Level 3. This was definitely the hardest workout class I've taken, and it was by far the BEST. Justin was the trainer and he was amazing!!
He did a great job at pushing me to do the best I could. I will definitely be coming back here because of his motivation and workouts. This is exactly what I've been looking for since I've been trying out different classes, and I'll be back here!
As for the gym, it was very clean, had great equipment, nice locker rooms, and lots of really muscular people that helped motivate me (even though I'm not trying to get as big as them, it's still nice to see people working hard). Overall, great class with Justin, and an awesome environment!

I've been to many gyms within Manhattan. This is the one I like best. Has all the equipment for serious bodybuilding. The gym offers great value for the price. Great club-like atmosphere. The owner is always on site and there if you need him. I’ve found Alex at the front desk to be very friendly and informative. I'm very satisfied. As for others who complain about cancellation policy, I don't know any gym that I've had membership where you could cancel. Check out this gym. It's worth the money!
