King Strength and Performance - Gym in Cranford - 8 Eastman St Suite 3, USA

Kings is not only a gym but a community. I joined after things started opening up after COVID. It’s now been three years and I still look forward to going to the gym. The gym, program and trainers are great and always willing to answer your questions and correct your movements. Huge shout out to Mona and Abby who’ve been there since the beginning for me — looking out for me with not only my workouts but nutrition. By going to the gym I was able to get to my fittest in 10 years. They also changed things up and were accommodating during my pregnancy (went till the day my water broke). Now I’m back again 3 months after having my baby. It feels good being back and connecting with everyone.

I've been coming to this gym since Nov 14th 2022. What started out as an interest in the aesthetics of the place, quickly changed after I met Rob. Not only was he very informative, he was very transparent with the way things worked around the gym as well as his personal passion and the desire to make others see the things that we sometimes don't see about ourselves. Rob is no longer with the team, but i still continue to attend. The passion that the trainers have. The discipline that you start building up. The sense of community between clients. Everything just sets the bar for a well rounded, respectful, and driven environment. I'm happy that i made the decision to sign up, and what started as a place that "looked cool" quickly became a home, and further than that, a community, a family. It's definitely no $10 a month. The gym works class-based, meaning that you have to reserve your training time, but as you go you understand the benefit in having constant supervision and a trainer available in every single class. Definitely recommend! I actually got a few of my friends to sign up already 😅🫡💪🏽🔥👑🦁

I joined King Strength and Performance in Cranford 3 months ago and it has drastically improved the quality of my life! I have always been active, however strength training has been a weakness. Thanks to the team here, I have been able to be more consistent and confident with strength training. Special shoutout to Abby and Mona who feel like friends encouraging you to do your best. They are so helpful and patient, but still push me out of my comfort zone. I look forward to going to the gym now thanks to the friendly environment they create. I can't thank them enough! If you are hesitant about starting, I would say its worth taking the leap for.

King has helped me create a foundation for weightlifting, grow confident in my physical appearance, and prove my own strength to myself. I started at King with my mom in October 2022 and was hesitant at first. I really didn’t know what I was doing and wasn’t confident in my abilities until I started coming in consistently and committing to myself. With the help of the trainers at King they help you on form and everything of course but they also establish a great relationship with each person and make you feel special and heard. It’s one thing to believe in yourself but it’s also a great feeling to know that the people around you believe as well. King is a great gym and an amazing community. I’m glad to say I’ve been a part of it :)

I've been a member at King Strength and Performance for about a year now, and my experience has been nothing short of exceptional. After facing the fear of returning to the gym post-injury and multiple surgeries, I found exactly what I needed at King. The trainers here have helped me rebuild my confidence in strength training and surpass the strength levels I had before my injury. King Strength and Performance is truly a breath of fresh air. What sets them apart is their dedicated focus on injury prevention, which has been a game-changer for me. The team of trainers (Eric, Abby, Kelly, Tbone, Denise, etc) are wonderful & incredibly attentive. I can't recommend King Strength and Performance enough for anyone looking to not only achieve their fitness goals but also do so in a supportive and encouraging environment.

This review has been a long time coming due to the fact that I can't even describe how good this gym is. For starters, this is the perfect gym for anyone who wants to start strength training. The owner and trainers are all extremely knowledgeable and all programming is science backed. The programming is straight to the point, no weird gimmicky workouts and it takes the thinking out of training for us. The community is welcoming and encouraging, this gym is a safe haven. I am not a people person nor do I like to be in groups but being a member of King has me surrounded by like minded people and in my opinion, has made me feel like a better version of myself. I am someone who fell off of my fitness due to the pandemic, and have had a hard time getting back to working out and being around people. King has made this transition so much easier for me. The trainers are all amazing individuals who help encourage you every step of the way. I am super grateful to be a member of King.

I joined group training sessions at King Strength and Performance more than a year ago, and it was the best decision I made for my physical and mental health. The gym offers structured programming that includes a good mix of dynamic stretches, weightlifting / body weight exercises, and cooldown sessions, as well as the opportunity to progressive overload each week. At home, I have a limited collection of dumbbells, but King Strength provides access to heavier dumbbells, kettlebells, plates, benches, and barbells. The trainers are welcoming, kind, helpful; they frequently check form, spot, provide modifications, and listen to concerns and questions. I walk away from every class feeling accomplished and proud of the work I put in. It’s definitely been a confidence booster! For anyone who is looking for structure with their workouts, is tired of guesswork and the lack of consistency, and wants a comfortable environment for people of all ages, sizes, and genders, I highly recommend checking out King Strength and Performance.

What started in 2021 as an experiment is now an integral part of my life, 2.5 years later. Never did I imagine myself as a consistent “gym guy”, but it’s the thing I look most forward to each week from a personal growth standpoint. The owner, the trainers and the community at King is top notch — they push you to overcome your doubts, listen to your unique needs and help you be a better version of yourself every time you step foot in this place. I’ve come a long way from chronic back pain, rickety knees and being barely able to lift half my body weight. And King has been by my side on this journey every step of the way.
