Blink Fitness

Power racks are always busy but there are plenty of elliptical, bikes, and treadmills to use

Been a member since day one. Its always been a very clean facility with relatively friendly staff. However of late they have began to single out people that are serious about working out by muscle shaming people that they perceive make to much noise every time a weight touches the ground. Presumably this is because of a recent change in management. I am very disappointed they would go the route of muscle shaming like planet fitness. All they need is a lunk alarm and pizza in the late bby and they will be all set. If you work out casually and have no real fitness goals this is the place for you. If you are serious shop around before committing.

Got a one month trial and it looked good. Went to cancel after they billed another $ 29.00. I went in to cancel and it
cost another $ 67.59 Never again.

ok. i went regularly with a friend first thirty days so i don’t know why a few here are complaining.
unless you’re a hater OR just mad at a personal trainer or whoever but i went to the #BlinkFitnessLinden, NJ residential nice town there then in Union, NJ not too far. We like both. I really like Linden better though HOWEVER both were:
1-.nice.
2.- clean.
3-​FRIENDLY trainer my friend had a female trainer she feel more comfy with that. and the lady did not judge her, criticize but rather motivate more. I witness it. Amazin and she was real professional in Union, but the one in Suburban residential area of Linden, was a lil better nicer that is all (the atmosphere) So i would if i were you guys sign up at Blink the cost was fair to my friend, who did not have to fret over Blink over-​charging did give her she said free i think 2 week to 3 weeks or the month or so then charge her till she stop (car accident 2 months ago) but soon as she better we going again. Blink is really nice. and i will be going back with her soon as she is better this winter by march.

Good price. Clean. Wish they offered classes!!! Is a pool to much to ask for? Lol Oh, most of the staff are really friendly. One or two rotten apples but I can look pass that with the service provided by others.

STAY AWAY!!! GO TO RETRO or CLUB METRO!!! The people here are so rude. When I went there, this gym did not have basic equipment like a chest bench station. You have to use the squat machines to bench press. When I went, the showers & locker room were dirty and smelly. The staff is so rude. I spoke to the manager for a billing question and he stated that this gym doesn’t provide you any information about your billing questions online, through email or over the phone…
I hate everything there is about this gym… PLEASE PLEEEEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING A GYM!!!
STAY AWAY !!! STAY AWAY!!! STAY WAY!!! THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN THE GYM ARE THE PEOPLE THAT WORK HERE!!!

Everyone should stay away from this gym. They are nothing but thieves and do not care to help their customers. I’ve had issues with billing and the location’s manager (Ariel) would never come to the phone to hear me out and all I got was the run around from the front desk staff. He finally calls me weeks later and says he will look into my issue and call me back. It’s been over a month and still no word from him. I’ve spoken to someone in corporate and still no resolution. I moved out of state and paid all my cancellation fees and they STILL went in my account and charged me more money that didn’t belong to them. Now I’m getting calls from some credit collection agency saying I owe blink money. This place has horrible business practices and does not care about providing good and honest customer service. I will be reporting them to the better business bureau and I hope more customers do the same. This place needs to be shut down and out of business!

I usually go to the Blink in Journal Square. I like that place and it has helped me out alot this year. But it is usually packed like sardines over there.
My first time in the one in Union. Don’t know if it’s because today is a Saturday, a 90° Saturday when everyone is out on the beach. Or that this place is still new. Or that this place is out on 22. But it is empty as hell compared to the one in The Square. I’M NOT COMPLAINING WHAT SO EVER. It was a refreshing change.
Plus this place is clean, with working equipment, and the workers here were pretty good. Hope this place stays open. Good chain here.
Only 4 stars because of my main complaints about Blink: Only 2 Squat cages and no bench press stations. I get that this place may not be the GOLD GYM type. But less standing around if no one using the cage for bench press IMO.
Keep up the good work at both 22 and The Square.

Recently joined but I’ve been a member of other gyms. I like this one the best by far. Plenty of space and lots of machines. Staff is really nice too. Machines are constantly cleaned. I just wish some members made use of the cleaning stations sanitary wipes after use of machines. Not the gym’s fault.

I was a member of Blink Fitness’ Union location until October 2014 when my credit card was compromised. I went to the Union location and asked that my account be cancelled but just found out it wasn’t.
I have been going back and forth with member services, who hide behind email address and choose not to resolve issues. I agreed to pay the payout amount but they are indicating that while there is no record of cancellation, that the total amount would have to be paid.
I asked for the owners name and obviously they are either absentee or told never to give out the name.
I’m hell bent on receiving quality customer service and won’t bend on that matter, why? Because customers matter for without them we would not be in business!

The gym is always clean and equipment seems to work all the time. The front desk is always nice and courteous to all of its customers. And the gym never seems to be overly crowded… also it has two floors!!!

I had the pleasure of signing up with this gym after a tragic break up with NYSC. Loved the place but was always so packed and you had to wait around for machines. Anyway, my first look inside Blink was very very impressive (2 head nods and 2) The greeting from Brandon and Kaeifa (sp) was fantastic. They gave me a few pointers and told me I was free to work out or just to look around and familiarize myself. I did end up doing like 30 mins of cardio which was really good. It’s a very spacious gym. Not over crowded. State of the art machines and equipment and personal trainers. The staff is very polite and friendly. Like all gyms one must wipe down the machine they just used in preparation for the next person. I saw at least 3 men who used machines, got off and went to use another machine.
I’m very paranoid of falling ill as I did a few years ago and I feel that it should be mandatory that folks do this. It’s just scary to think what I could be contracting, if a machine I used wasn’t cleaned. I hope I stay with Blink for awhile and that the non cleaning of machines by others doesn’t put a damper on my visits.

A few months ago, I was at the target and saw a sign that you could sign up for a membership for $ 1. I did it and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made. They have a $ 15 membership but I opted for the $ 20 membership which allows you to bring guests unlimited times and go to other blinks except the one in Soho I believe.
This gym is always clean. I love the fact that instead of spray bottles they have antibacterial wipes to clean the machines. They have people who are there to clean and the people at the front desk wipe down machines as well when there is no traffic. There are ample machines no matter what time of day it is as this gym is fairly new and does not have a lot of members yet.
The staff is friendly and always greet me with a smile. A few even try to remember my name. They have free Wi-​Fi which you get your own personal account for. If you are looking for a place to just get a good workout, this is it.

Love this place. always get a great workout the staff is very helpful and not pushy at all. the membership rates are incredible especially for a gym. they have a wide variety of machines that are easy-​to-​use operation. always go here to get my work out in

Just moved into the area from Brooklyn! I must say the place is great, very open space, CLEAN, new, plenty of equipment and extremely FRIENDLY STAFF! You also can’t beat $ 15 a month in Brooklyn the cheapest gym is $ 45 a month… I know they just opened, but it’s a great space for the price. not to many squat racks and bench press…
