I just checked if this place is still open and im happy to see it is , I used to work out in this gym almost 30 years ago ! I Remember LL Cool J was working out with us . Bunch of big Jews Italians Greeks spanish , man the good old days !
This place was probably the best gym I been to as far as motivation from surrounding huge members , great shakes , just good memories.
The racing 🏁 after the workouts on Francis Lewis was a good way to end our workouts .
I should visit there one of these days , If I lived closer by i would have joined again.
Peace ✌️

I don't understand some of the negative reviews.
Old school gym with friendly clientele. Staff treats guests like family. Most members are extremely considerate. They don't treat machines like phone booths or nail salons. I have found that to be a problem at other gyms.
I go during the day. There's always cardio equipment available. You usually don't have to wait for many machines. I mainly use the machines upstairs. Downstairs, they have a huge amount of free weights.
The fees are extremely reasonable for the services offered.

If I can give this gym 0 stars I would. I've been coming to this gym for about 2 years and I think they have yet to clean it in those two years. The walls are wrapped with rug which doesn't make sense. The weights stick together because of the moisture. When it rains, it always leaks from the ceiling. There is mold on the ceilings. All the fans are filled with dust. EVERYTHING is filled with dust. There are holes in the walls. I've been to plenty of dirty gyms, but this has to be the worst by far. Idk how they can charge $60 per month and not have the decency clean the place.

Equipment cluttered and congested. No walkway room for the capacity it holds. Safety issues everywhere. Multiple times have hit people while working out due to close proximity of all the equipment. Very dirty all around. Most cleaning areas not stocked. Trash bins overflowing. Teens running the front too busy flexing on each other and hanging out.

Overpriced for all the cons and what it has to offer

I used to think this gym was decent or at least decent enough to get a workout in and get out. But the longer I’ve been here, the worse I think it is. Other reviews are more thorough, mine is just about the cons.

The gym is so old and rundown it’s insane.
- The floors are incredibly dirty with some areas ripped up from the AC condensation dripping onto it.
- The plates are so rusty that it comes off with a swipe of a finger.
- Bathrooms are grimy with areas that look like they’ve never been cleaned since it opened.
- Fans aren’t clean and full of dust; can’t be good for your lungs.
- WORST OF ALL, there have been more and more cockroaches out and about.

Please save your money ($60/month) and don’t give it to this establishment because they don’t care to clean it up. The photos on Instagram are strategically photographed or are old.

I have been a member here since 2017. Gym is absolutely fantastic. Very great employees behind the counter, amazing pre-workout/protein/hydration options, their merchandise is very appealing & comfortable, spacious, many different machines/free weight/barbells & has dumbbells which go to 200lbs for the big boys.

The owner Tommy is very kind as well & maintains this gym very effectively.

Went here some days by myself and even with some friends. The day pass is $15. There is a lot to unfold about this gym. I've been trying to find some new gyms and came across this one.

All the pros: The staff seemed to be chill. There are some machines at this gym that most gyms don't have (Hack squat, Chest supported T bar row, etc). There were a lot of cables and machines and even free weights. There are two floors (the first floor has a lot more cables and machines and a couple of benches for free weights. The basement had some machines but more of a squat, deadlift, and bench area with a lot more free weight area than above.) It was also organized in a way. Unlike LA and some other gyms, the plates and equipment were at their own machines. They also had their own yoga or some kind of empty room which I suppose is for yoga or stretching. They also had their own cardio section and weren't exploded with cardio machines like Planet Fitness. One thing though that I love personally is how it wasn't too packed. It wasn't empty but it definitely didn't have people stacking onto each other till maybe rush hour. You didn't have to wait for others to be done with a machine. (this is just something me PERSONALLY I really liked). In general, this is all the things I liked about the gym and just positive things I can say about it.

Now for the cons: Like other reviews have stated, the equipment is very rusty and some of the paddings on the machines like preacher curls and dip machines have tears on them, even some of the benches. It was kinda dirty and didn't feel good to put your hands on them, especially the plates. The locker room was also pretty tiny and felt cramped. Also, not sure if this is every day at this gym but I stayed till rush hour and like I said before, it doesn't get packed but the machines are a little too close to each other so it can be a challenge for some people trying to lift and not disrupt one's session. Don't think it was the people since it wasn't crowded but I think it is the placement of the machines and benches. The biggest letdown for me was the price. The price is $60 a month. This could just be me, but from other reviews, the price was an issue for people. Don't get me wrong, the gym is really good. Me and my friends talked about how good the gym was and the equipment was solid. Sure, it was rusty and dirty but we had a good time. I think it's just a bit pricey for how it is you know, the old benches and bars and how it feels dirty. $30-$40 seems like a reasonable price for this gym. Even $45 is an okay price. $60 is an overkill but again, that could just be me.

Overall, from the days I have gone, I liked it and really did enjoy my time there. I would've taken photos but I forgot. I hope this review helps anyone else trying out gyms and found this one.

Been a member for a little over a month so far. Although I've been working out since I was 21, it's been 16 years since I last belonged to a gym; Needless to say, I was a little intimidated. Thankfully, this place is alright so far. The main area has your typical strength machines and cardio equipment. There's a side area tucked away near the lockers with a few more machines, a place to do stretches, and a basement containing weights and a room for classes (on pause since COVID).

I can't speak for the other Powerhouse locations, but this one is a pretty bare-bones gym. It's kind of small, there are no trainers, a lot of the equipment is on the older side and, as mentioned earlier, there are currently no classes. There's a smoothie bar/merch shop up front but, to date, I haven't seen anyone buy anything. In fact, the people at this gym very much keep to themselves. There's a pretty diverse crowd coming here, with most leaning towards the under-35 demo. But most of them just come in, work out, and leave.

The prices are fair, and I'll update my review if there's any developments. For now, this is a pretty good, affordable neighborhood gym.

UPDATE: It was not the equipment or training packages that didn’t impress me. It was the staff. I just wanted to check out the gym with my sister and my friend before buying a membership. We asked one employee in the front if it would be possible for us to tour the gym. Instead of offering to give us a tour and provide us with descriptions of the packages himself, he said “I’ll be following right behind you”. His tone implied he didn’t care less about attracting new members at this gym. Overall, I felt he was rude. He could have at least given us a tour. What is following us around going to do? He was extremely unhelpful. I won’t be considering a membership at any Powerhouse Gym facility.

Great gym that has everything you need to get fit, gain muscle mass, lose weight, or maintain your health. Just a heads up: If you are the Equinox type, then this may not be the gym for you.

Personally, I love the basic essentials of this gym. For example, you have (5) flat barbell bench press stations, (3) incline barbell bench press stations, and (1) decline barbell bench press station to choose from. If you are squatting, you have (4) squat racks [(2) in the basement and (2) upstairs] along with (2) Smith machines to choose from.

For cardio, they have an abundance of treadmills, stair climbers, elipticals, and stationary bikes; all excellently maintained.

The only con is that the men's bathroom is a mess at times.

No other gym in Flushing, Bayside, and Whitestone compares to the convenience and price.

Lastly, I would recommend the morning time slot. The gym is less crowded and has a more mature group that is laid back. Unfortunately, my schedule does not allow it.

As with any other gym, you will still have to occasionally deal with the following people:

1. The person that sits at a machine/equipment texting or surfing the internet as you wait for it to be freed up. Occasionally, you will see the same person sitting in the locker room glued to his phone as others change.

2. The narcissist that is constantly recording or taking photos of themselves, so they can impress on their social media.

3. The 3-5 guys that literally are glued at the hip. Even in the locker room, all members will awkwardly remain in the room until the very last group member gets dressed.

4. The annoying teens that spot each other with weight that they have no business lifting. When your spotter is lifting the weight from the first rep onward, you have no business lifting that weight.

5. The amateur dead-lifters that destroy the barbells. Even worse, the females that belong to this group have no idea that they are adding more inches to their waistline with this exercise.

Once again, if you are looking to get fit, gain muscle mass, lose weight, or maintain your health, then I recommend Powerhouse Gym in Bayside.

Worked out here regularly for a month in late 2021. No frills, no program/lifestyle being sold. $50/mo (reflects a discount for paying in cash) plus a $10 initiation fee for a noncontract membership.

This gym is packed with equipment, most of which has seen better days but is still functional. Top floor is treadmills and machines. Basement is mostly dumbbells/benches (and a workout/dance room). Only 3 squat racks. Luckily I was able to come during off-peak times and rarely waited for a machine.

Other clientele generally don't bother you, and are there to work out alone or with friends. There seemed to be people of all ages, colors, and sizes, which is really great.

Noteworthy: I saw one of the cleaners (a young woman) during some of my workouts, and the thoroughness with which she always disinfected and wiped down every nook of the weights, bench, etc. was absolutely amazing. The gym definitely looks a bit run down and gritty, but her work gives you some confidence that they're doing their best!

This is the first time that I visited this gym. Overall it was a pleasant experience. However, I wish the managers would post more photos of the types of equipment available; there is plenty of gym equipment to accommodate people with different fitness goals.

Furthermore, I highly recommend they replace some of the barbells with new ones like Ohio Power Barbell by Rogue Fitness. Some of the barbells don't feel secure in my hands due to lack of kurling which can negatively affect grip.

As for the staff, they're very friendly and welcoming. The same can be said about the members, too.

In conclusion, I recommend this gym. I can see myself as a member in the foreseeable future!

They recently added a half rack in the basement but honestly one isn't enough and bars need to be replaced as most of the bars are bent. Other than that, if you are serious about lifting, there is nothing like it around 5mile radius.

Price is good, among the lowest anywhere, never mind this area where it's the only "conventional" (not CrossFit or pilates studio) gym around. As usual, too, however, very few seem able to match dumbbells and weight-plates with their appropriate stowage spots!!

I started my membership in January 2020, then COVID happened, and the 6 months we lost can't be credited unless I pay for another membership. I basically got robbed the 6 months that wasn't "anyone's" fault. I never asked for a refund because the front desk told me that it's the rule and that's what Tommy's sticking by. Why would I renew if you hold the 6 months that 'everyone' lost? What is the down-side of this rule? Have you thought about it Tommy? A loyal guest leaves and loses 6 months that was already prepaid?! Makes no sense. I heard A LOT of members chatting about how upset they were. I hope more people speak up about this so I don't look like I'm being bias.

60$ a month is unreasonable for this kind of equipment quality / variety. The equipment will suffice for basic workouts benchpress, deadlift etc, but don't expect to find things like rowing machines. Cardio area is really cold in winter, feels like there is no heating at all. Despite the amount of fans, the air is still very stuffed, especially downstairs, not even sure if they have any AC's. PS. wouldn't complain if they had like 30-40$ a month, but 60 is a serious overkill.

I've been going to this gym since I was in high school on and off. Its a great gym with a classic theme. The owner of the gym is a good guy. The staff does a good job in greeting guests. Some machines are rare to find and this gym has it. The vibe is nice it has a bodybuilding spirit in here.
The cons: the place isn't new so don't expect a fancy gym its for you to get strong and look good. The ventilation is so so especially in the summer and winter. Some of the equipment like barbells need to be replaced. The floor isn't even to me. I feel off balanced at times because of the shock absorbing mats.

Spent about a good month in this gym and I think I can somewhat confidently express my opinions about it. This gym is no muss, no fuss - kinda gym that caters to those who wants to lift weights. None of those smoothie bars with twinkling lights on the ceiling to give it an overly aesthetic environment. In short, this gym is great for those who just wants to work out. I cannot express how nice and supportive the staff is. Didn't matter if I went in the morning, afteroon or late at night - all of the staff were attentive and friendly. My workout buddy even lost his Apple Airpods and they took it out of their time to find it for us. The service is impeccable. There are plenty of free weights, and not to mention, lots of squat racks. It shouldn't be a problem to find an area to lift weights. The prices are extremely reasonable, especially favorable to students - full marks on that.

Now, the cons. I don't have much to say. Most of them are things that are impossible for them to control without having more staff to help out. This is especially true for the basement floor. The atmosphere of the level floor and basement floor are night and day. Level floor, from what I can tell, has a more friendly atmosphere going on. As for the basement floor, it is usually filled with more of the meatheads. This especially gets annoying when they start dropping free weights and barbells on the floor when doing deadlifts. Granted, the floors are matted but it still makes an insanely obnoxious noise. But, when these meatheads goes up stairs, they are much more careful not to make noise or possibly damage the weights. This only happens because there is no staff to manage the basement floor. I do wish this could be fixed somehow. Another con is that some of the machines are a bit tattered up, mostly due to poor use from gym users. I do try to understand certain things can't immediately be fixed (like the treadmill machines), but would like to see these being fixed in the near future.

Overall, great gym! Would recommend other people to try to place out.

LOVE this gym. Just started my month last week but I really can't get enough of this place. I started out when I was younger at an old school, free-weight, serious gym and have been going there until about 2 years ago when I moved. Since then I've been to LA Fitness and Blink etc. but nothing gets me more motivated and addicted to a good workout like nice classic gym. If you love the serious workout vibe, you'll love this place. If you want pools, basketball courts, racquetball courts and all the extras, then this may not be the place for you. But if you want a consistent no BS workout, this is the place to be.

I've been going to this gym for the past 12+ years now and it meets all of my needs. As its name suggests, this place caters towards those who want to lift weights. If you want spin, yoga, and aerobics classes, you're in the wrong place. The staff is generally not that helpful, but you won't have to deal with them much. The gym itself is generally clean and well lit. The music that plays will depend on who's manning the front desk and what mood they're in.

Overall, if you don't need much guidance in the gym and you just want to lift, this gym rocks. Just know that there can be a lot of meatheads working out here, and it can be an intimidating environment for women and workout rookies.

This is a nice place to workout but the inside is not aesthetically pleasing to the eye which can make the experience unpleasant if you are a very neat person.

I've been to alot of gyms and I honestly can say this is the best gym in queens. It has all the best equipment and the staff is very friendly. it has a very home environment when you walk in and the owners are always available when needed...I won't go anywhere else 5 stars!

Close to home with friendly and helpful staff. It is fun for me to be there and enjoy exercising in a clean and well organized environment.

The gym is very nice feels like a home gym and the guy at the front desk during the closing time is very friendly. One star less because had a bad experience with one of the member who was trying to be tough when I ask about sharing a machine. It doesn’t matter how big you are being nice shows your maturity, usually I tend to ignore people like that. If you are a member doesn’t mean you own the gym. Its good gym and overall a good vibe. I would suggest everyone to give out a try!

The best gym in the whole Nyc tri-state area. Clean machines. Always pins in the weights and nice staff. Very professional and trained well. The shakes are to crave for!

This gym has everything you need. I travel from Astoria to Bayside to train there. It’s a lifters gym. Also has plenty of cardio machines and basement had studio with classes. Definitely recommend it. Clean, staff is professional, members are friendly as well..worth the price. Yearly fee Averages around $30 a month. Most fancy gyms want over $60. Can’t go wrong

Old equipment, benches are ripped up big holes in the leather for the last six months that I've been there . Overpriced because it's the only gym in the neighborhood. Lockeroom is tiny Most Staff is nice . It gets the job done but not worth the money especially when you compare it to any other gym.

If you are the type to complain about this classic gem of a gym then there is a reason why you're complaining on the internet rather than lifting with people who appreciate this nostalgic atmosphere.

Great gym. Friendly and helpful staff, wide assortment of protein drinks, powders, shakes, pre-workouts, etc. LOTS of machines and free weights.

Powerhouse is what I consider a real gym. No soft top 40 music. They blast metal or good ass rap. Staff is super chill. Never crowded. No fuss. Joined after Bell Plaza closed and I spent some time at LA Fitness which is the gym equivalent of a politically correct shopping mall. If you like to walk in somewhere bang out the weights and leave this is the spot. It’s the place where people’s top priority is working out, not being seen. Classic bodybuilding gym. If you need a sterile environment and somebody to hold your hand then this isn’t your place. Don’t say it’s a crappy gym cause there’s not a sauna and a juice bar. Go to xsport and get a tan and a happy ending and a pat on the head if that’s what you need. This is a beautiful barebones muscle temple. Bonus thing- juice for life is next door. On point post workout meals.
