It was Fitness

This is by far the best gym and juice bar/ kitchen in the area 💯. I found this gym on ClassPass, I came to the 11am boxing class with Divino. He’s excellent, the class is good for begginers and more experienced athletes, I’m glad I partnered with someone at a comparable level to me. We had a blast, the drills were fun and incorporated a lot of movement, I took it easy and went through the motions without a lot of impact. TRY THIS CLASS! The food here is excellent as is the service. I hade the fiesta wrap, it was fresh and delicious the must pay well because the staff here is all super friendly and attentive, the clerk making my wrap was super eager to make my food, they also offer to refill your water bottles here which is so bizarre for any NYC establishment. The layout of the gym is a little wonky but I like it, it gives the space personality IMO and as a real estate agent, I can also say that the renovations they have made recently really make the premium for joining worth it. There are lots of machines, everything is clean and new. It feels like a Lifetime fitness or an e”Equinox but not precious, it was designed for people that want to get fit and enjoy a luxury experience without the attitude or without going into the city. Oh and there is an indoor basketball court. The only thing missing is towel service and a steam room. Good job BQE fitness you have a new member.

This gym has everything you need and more. Any machine you can think of, they have it. They offer different workout classes and there’s even a small cafe-restaurant with really good food options. The gym is so spacious and clean. They’re constantly renovating and working to improve it. The people that work there are super professional/helpful. I feel lucky to have such an incredible gym near me. The other gyms in the area don’t compare. My favorite part about the gym is the indoor basketball court. Such a rare commodity in NY. I brag about this gym to everyone but also wanna keep it to myself. That’s how you know it’s good!!

Coming here was never a five star experience but it was a good one considering the membership included the classes. The spin room was pretty great and that alone made me join. Fast forward a couple months and the spin room is gone! Closed for renovations that have been going on for way too long. Spin was moved to the stretch room and when class is over they ask for your help to move the bikes 🤨. The bikes are falling apart, and most of them don’t work. The only reason I haven’t quit yet is the spin instructors king & Elizabeth who are amazing ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for them ! Also props to the staff who are friendly. All in all , for me It’s really becoming not worth going to. The remainder of the gym is fine and is a pretty standard gym. Currently looking for another gym if they don’t sort out their amenities.

Becarful before you sign up to this gym. Every other month there's a random charge apart of my monthly membership fee. They make it so difficult to cancel your contract! 4 months after i canceled my contract there's a random charge from BQE GYM. I called the gym to get reimbursed. They didn't want to reimbursed me. They said l said i never canceled my contract. I had to go thru my credit card.

I had been thinking about cancelling my BQE membership for an extended amount of time now due to a variety of reasons but today I finally committed to the cancellation of my membership. Today, while eating food that I had brought in from the outside, a manager had approached me and told me I had to leave and to eat it somewhere else. I mentioned to the manager that I had no clue that outside food wasn't allowed and asked if it were okay to finish it this one time and not bring outside food anymore. He proceeded to tell me "no" and that I had to leave with the food. What had me confused is how I could possibly be disturbing anyone's peace with my food, meanwhile, numerous members at BQE proceed to bring in huge commercial-grade cameras to film their workouts. To sum everything up, I did not pay $50 a month for two years in order to be asked to leave with food I bought and for my workouts to be disrupted by other members and for management to pay no attention. The bottom line is that they care more about publicity and money than the satisfaction of their members that pay to be there.
