Absolute Mess...... – This gym could do much more better. For one the price for what you get is to much. The womens locker room is so small and only has one bench. One of the bathroom doors does not lock. When the door to the gym is open you can see inside the locker room. The staff has a nasty attitude. When I was going to this gym it took about 2/3 months until they told me I have a balance and that they dont accept my bank card. This happened on two occassions. So, I tried to cancel my account and before I could they sent... read more

Fix equiptment, please! – The gym is below average. There is a good variety of equipment but too many machines are broken (Cables have been out of order for months). The staff is friendly. The music played on the speakers is typically top 40's stations (Pump is lost every time Bruno Mars come on). The gym would be bumped up to above average if the broken equipment and music selection were addressed.

The best bodies are at gyms like these. – Everyone here complaining is either a rich fauxhemian or hipster whining there isn't hemp soap in the bathroom or how the music isn't ironic enough. Those in the know, if you want to see amazing bodies that inspire, you go to a straightforward gym like this, not a spa or boutique type like Clay or Soma where they "give you all the towels you could ask for" and have the "latest machines". I have tried ALL the gyms in the area, I've stuck with this one, it's cheap, there's a lot of spa... read more

Worst place to workout, best place to catch a cold or worst – This place is the worst. Try to find another place. It's cheap but a local park is cheaper and yes much safer. The place is a mess, the bathrooms are scary. There is no customer service, the classes are just sad! I can't believe this place is still in business!

It has everything you need! – For $30 a month, what more would anyone want. This place is 5 blocks from my house and 1.5blocks from the L train. It's perfect! It has all the equipment I need, including classes that I do not have to pay extra for. The most important thing is that i am not bothered at this gym. I like to get in and out without to much hassle, and it certainly doesn't burn a whole in my wallet. Don't bother looking anywhere else, this is the cheapest place in town.

I like it there – A nice neighborhood gym, affordable and never crowded. I was a member of Crunch before and I vastly prefer this one.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely – Absolute power is da bomb. Its da best gym if you just want to work out and not deal with any nonsense. At times da music is too loud but when you only pay $250 for a year what do you expect? The only negative is the staff. Miguel is the worst. He is really, really bad because his protein shakes are da worst. There are some fly ladies in the gym as well. Love it when the aerobics door is open. Anyways, join the gym. Its a good gym when the super hasnt closed it down.

Everything you need except a locker room. – Absolute power is generally a really good gym, especially for the price (which has been upped to $350 a year, but only if you pay it all up front). Cardio machines are top notch, and there is a wide variety of weight machines, free weights, etc. The locker room is pretty crappy, about half the lockers are busted in and the shower looks like it hasn't been cleaned. Ever. Needless to say I've never seen anyone shower there, and people who opt for lockers just bring a lock for while t... read more

headache!! impossible to listen to your personal music on ipod or walkman – Bare bones gym, nothing special, but it is pretty cheap. Bad news: Recently plays super loud bad techno music. So loud that it's impossible to listen to your personal music on ipod or walkman. Staff is really rude about turning the music down. It's too bad because we used to really like working out there.
