  I first came to PPT two months after having hernia surgery, eager to get back to the gym but wary of injuring myself. I'd been going to the gym, on and off (because I'd often simply get bored), on my own for more than 20 years, with mediocre results. I wanted to do better. After trying a couple other trainers at my own gym, who didn't seem to understand that I was a 40-something guy with a gut who'd just had surgery and not a 20-something bodybuilder training for a triathlon, I decided to try PPT. I told myself I'd go for a month or two to learn how to work out more effectively, and then I'd go back on my own. That was almost a year ago, and I've been going twice a week ever since. Why? The trainers. They're a great lot, and all of them have taught me how to work out--not just harder or for more time, but smarter and more effectively--and they've also helped me rethink things from nutrition and my eating habits to my overall health. They pay attention to my goals--I'm never going to be a swimsuit model, lose 50 pounds, or pose for a muscle magazine; that's not why I'm here. These guys know more than I do, and I learn things from them all the time.

  I’ve been attending Small Group Training here a few times a week for about 4 months now, and can’t say enough good things about this gym. All four trainers are very knowledgeable and fun to workout with. They know so many different exercises, which makes each workout different than the last one. They also make sure to understand your individual needs in order to help customize the workouts to the people that are in the class. I’ve often been the only person in an SGT class, which essentially makes it a personal training session at a great price. Even if there is someone else in the class, the trainers are great about focusing on each person separately and modifying different exercises as necessary. I’ve been feeling great since coming here and highly recommend it if you are considering it!

  I worked with Progressive Personal Training for about 8 weeks to prepare for a decathlon (NFL Combine style competition). They helped me with strength and agility. I worked with Antonio, James, David and Michael. Each person pushed me to be better and work harder. I would definitely recommend PPT.

  I've been going here for the past 4 months and I absolutely love it. Antonio, James, David and Greg are fantastic trainers, always pushing me to higher levels of strength with a smart eye on health/fitness. The equipment is top notch and the place is never crowded. If you are looking to get any sort of coaching in the gym, this is hands down the best place to go in NYC.

  Progressive personal training is the absolute best training experience I have come across in the Chelsea / Flat Iron area. I'm a 61-year-old man with Parkinson's disease and the team at Progressive has really kept me on track. They coordinated my exercise regimen with my Physical Therapist and have really kept me focused on what I need to do. The team approach is really phenomenal, its like getting 3 trainers for the price of one. Each trainer keeps meticulous notes on my progress. These notes are shared between them so I always know the trainer I'm with is up to speed. Best of all James, David, and John each their unique perspective to the workout. Highly recommended!
