AMAZING Gym, AMAZING Owner!\r

I have been a member at New Dorp Fitness for 3 years now (2009-2012), have been working out for 6 years, and for the three years I've been a member at New Dorp Fitness I can honestly say that it is the best gym on Staten Island. From the atmosphere, to the equipment, the staff, the gym members, and most especially the owner, Phil.\r
\r
From Day 1 that I joined the gym I noticed that Phil expressed value and appreciation for all of his members, including myself. He always tries to give his time to each member and, above all else, he makes each individual member feel special. He treats everyone with respect with his great personality and will help you as much as he can with you fitness, dieting, and personal life goals.\r

Not only am I a member of this gym, but I am also a personal training client of Phil's. I have been personally trained by Phil for 8 months (and still am today). I came to Phil at 155lbs with the aspiration of becoming a professional wrestler. I told Phil that I wanted to be 200lbs, fit, and in the best physical shape of my life. Day 1 of training i said to him, ""Tell me what to do, and i will do it."" I was given a strict diet plan, personal workout routine and the support and guidance of my new personal trainer. Eight months later and I am already 185lbs (at 5'10""), in the best physical shape of my life and still going strong. Phil not only changed my weight and shape, but he's changed my mindset as well. He showed me that nothing is impossible and that you can achieve anything that you put your mind to. With every gain I achieve and with every step i progress, I am in the best shape of my life, best mental attitude of my life and I feel that this is only the beginning. If you want to be great you have to achieve great things, one step at a time. Phil showed me the road, I ran headstrong and i haven't stopped running since. I would not be, act, or feel the way i do today without the help of Phil. I am grateful to have such a wonderful trainer in such a wonderful environment in New Dorp Fitness.
