This is a brilliant, no-frills gym that focuses on what is most important — getting you strong and keeping you that way. Ben, the owner, has developed a fantastic model to maximize the efficiency and affordability of your workouts. He has created a team of the most talented, knowledgeable and personable professional trainers in NYC, who will encourage you to push and challenge yourself while keeping you safe and injury free at the same time. The gym has an easy, friendly vibe that makes you feel good just to be there. I felt at home from day one.
I can't say enough good things about BUF. From day one, the experience felt thoughtful, private, and genuinely personal. There's no ego in the room, no intimidation, no performative fitness culture. Just focused, smart training in a space that feels calm and intentional. The trainers really listen. They pay attention to what matters to you, where you want to improve, and where you need to be pushed. They strike that rare balance between challenging you and respecting your limits. Every session feels customized. Nothing feels generic or rushed. It's boutique without being pretentious. Private without being isolating. Professional without being cold. You feel seen, supported, and steadily stronger in ways that go beyond the physical. If you're looking for personal training that feels tailored, discreet, and worth every penny, BUF is the place. Highly recommend.
This training studio is excellent. I started seeing results almost immediately. The trainers are knowledgeable, fun and results-oriented. And the price is very affordable for the quality of the trainers and studio. If you can go during off-peak hours, the studio is like an oasis.
This place is top notch. The trainers are exceptional — highly knowledgeable, attentive to form, and adept at working around injuries. The whole environment is friendly and supportive with a lovely sense of community. I am making progress and succeeding in ways I have never before with other trainers. I ❤️ BUF!!
Getting back into working out again after taking a break for a couple years. Love, love, love BUF! I stumbled across one of their insta posts and decided to check it out as I hadn't been thrilled of late with the personal trainers at my regular gym. They are warm, welcoming, and TUF!! Was a bit hesitant about not having the same trainer all the time, but their entire roster is excellent!! And I enjoy the flexibility and variation more than I expected. Keeps things fresh and interesting at each session. I highly recommend!!
BUF Personal Training has changed my life. This is not an exaggeration — as a 63 year old woman who had not exercised in over 10 years I had given up on regaining my physical health. BUF Personal Training has delivered all that and so much more! Every trainer is proficient and professional, knowledgeable and kind. This is truly a gym that welcomes everyone and their only goal is to have you reach your highest potential while avoiding injury. Whoever you are, wherever you are, no matter your age, size, or anything that might have you wonder if this is the gym for you — give BUF Personal Training a try, it's the best gift you could give yourself.
