Retro Fitness

Don’t touch my windshield wipers or my car at Ronkonkoma Station. I don’t appreciate scratches and dirt or broken wipers. It’s 2016! Learn to advertise with Google AdSense or Facebook ads.

From my original post nothing has changed.
The guys behind the counter and I mean specifically the guys act as if you are inconvenienceing them when you scan in. I appologize if you dislike your job but that is not my fault. There is no greeting whatsoever.
The women however are extremely nice and greet you. There are no employees that can assist with how to use the equipment. They are busy getting phone numbers downstairs.
This is the most bizarre gym I have ever been to. This place is a gym owners worst nightmare. However I should say they are getting a little better with machine maintenance. So I guess I’m upping them to 2 stars from 1.

Just joined 2 weeks ago and have been going 5 days a week. So far I’ve never had a wait for equipment and the place is spotless. Staff has always been friendly.

Thank you front desk person for hanging up on a member. I was curious if there were plans to add more spin bikes. I asked how many bikes there were in the room.
[slam]
But have no fear spin seekers. It is not possible to reserve a spot online. You are encouraged to book 24hrs in advance for AM classes. But *only* 24hours in advance. (For the January 9^th class there were two people on the wait list.)
If you’re interested in evening spin I was advised to simply show up.
I would guess there are about 15 bikes in the room. The one class I took right before Christmas had an awesome instructor. (She even wore a mock Xmas tree tutu.) While the room is not equipped with strong a/​c a large fan does the trick. Bikes run smoothly but do not have gear indicators.
The gym itself is squeaky clean. I was surprised to see arc trainer machines. (They are one of my favorite cardio machines.) There is plenty of space to walk around the free weight area. The shower room looked great. An entertainment room contains some cardio equipment. (Darkened to watch a large screen television.) Child care options are available.
The gym is in the same strip mall as Checker’s and Giunta’s Meat Market.
Sign up isn’t a hard sell. As their advertising says, «Come experience fitness with a difference.»

I’ve been a member for years. The place is clean and with all the new equipment it just keeps getting better.
One complaint is the small area for members to do core excersize’s while no one is in the extra large training area.
Love the shakes, Ian the trainer is awesome. Melissa is sweet.
It is like walking Into the cheers bar after awhile everyone knows your name.

The gym is not bad, however, it’s almost impossible for your to CANCEL the membership! So, really, really careful to sign up for this gym unless you live around here forever.
Remember! IT’S EXTREMELY HARD TO CANCEL THE MEMBERSHIP! GOOGLE IT BEFORE YOU SIGN UP!!!

I love these guys– Melissa at the front desk has become my buddy after all the years Ive Been going here, she is always smiling and polite and very on the ball– Kenny the GM is really cool and makes me laugh pretty much every time I see him– its like a family in here. They updated the downstairs recently to keep things fresh and I think it looks great. I joined another gym in the area about a year ago to save 3 minutes travel time. Big mistake. Went right back to retro– for 19bux a month you cant beat it.

Always clean and the movie room makes time fly when doing my cardio. They are very pleasant to me when I come in.

I have belonged to this gym for about 4 yrs now and I couldn’t be happier! The gym has everything you need and the theater room helps make your workouts go faster. The staff and the trainers (especially Donna) are always helpful and have become great friends who genuinely care about you. The classes are always changing and are another fun way to change up your workout. I definitely recommend trying out this gym

I can believe all the negative reviews. I’ve been to this gym once and it’ll be the last. There was barely any machines and the machines that are there are old. The lady at the front desk is very kind tho, but then again I went in the morning so I don’t know about the rest of the staff.

You get what you pay for. Melissa who is the day manager is awesome. Classes are great. Machines slow to be fixed. But for the price I’m grateful!

I can’t believe all of the negative reviews! I have been going to this retro from over 3 years now. It’s incredibly clean and I always find the staff to be very friendly! Ken, Melissa and Jared always offer a hello/​goodbye and are eager to strike up a conversation with me and my boyfriend — they even notice when I change my hair! The only thing I will say is that it does get pretty crowded in the evening and after school is when all the high school groups go, so when I can I aim for early afternoon and it’s perfect.
My absolute favorite is the theater where you can do cardio — makes cardio go by so much quicker when you can watch a movie!
And lastly, I can’t understand why someone would complain about athletes and «juiceheads,» IT IS A GYM… what did they expect?!

Not the best Retro I’ve been to. Lack of certain machines and no grouping by what the machine is used for.

DO NOT JOIN THIS GYM! Unless you are ok with being billed for the rest of your life. The only way to get out of this is to die. I took proper procedures to cancel — by the way, this includes sending a certified letter to your «home» gym. Apparently you can work out anywhere but if you need to cancel, it has to be via the gym you signed up. I moved 2 hours away from mine. You will continue to be billed for months AFTER you send the certified letter. I have been trying to get rid of this for months and continue to be billed and charged late fees. I also get a harassing phone call from their billing company on a daily basis. Had an easier time getting a divorce, I swear.
