You train at a fitness center. I train in a gym. You have more cardio equipment then actual training equipment. I have a gym filled with retro peices that they don't make any more. You want a bargain price to train at Globo Gym and I would happily pay a decent price for a gym. Your fitness spot has weights all over and attachments strewn about. My gym mates and I take pride and rerack our equipment. I walk over to a machine in your facility, and hear "I'm on that !" In my gym ,we share respectfully. So, you go there and I will stay here.

Awesome gym! Very unique - never been to a gym quite like it. Chill members and very friendly and helpful staff. Great place to come work out!

Great gym, but opening on the weekends is inconsistent. Some staff are great while others seem to not care at all. This is the third weekend happening to me and other members.

The place is long past its prime. The machines need updating and general maintenance. The staff is nice.

Clean gym floor and restrooms. I stopped going to other big name gyms because of the lack of cleanliness. You will never see dumbbells or plates just lying around either. The abundance of free weights and machines make this place ideal for getting your best results. Owner Bob is a great guy and very personable. Great gym overall. Wish I could give it more stars.

Great gym with a serious atmosphere. Old equipment you can't get anywhere else. Definitely and old school gym more for serious weightlifters.

The best gym I've been to yet in all my years of bodybuilding! Went this past weekend and had the best leg workout. Such an awesome, old-school gym FULL of all types of equipment. I've seen machines here that I haven't anywhere else. There is something for everyone here although it's the perfect classic gym for those serious about their path in this industry. If I lived closer I'd have no doubts about becoming a member. Can't wait to return!

My favorite old school gym that I've ever been to. It has multiple machines to target each muscle group

Google should add a sixth star so I can properly rate this gym. Best gym around with tons of equipment. Owner Bob is a legend in the gym industry. Anyone who lives in the area should go here. A lot of old school machines and current machines with over 20,000 sq. footage of equipment. You can never plateau in your workout regiment b/c of all variations of machines with different angles and resistances. People are very friendly here and this place has an excellent gym culture.

Looking to focus on yourself and get in the shape you want, this is hands down the best place to go. Just you and the equipment, not tons of people standing around on their phones and taking selfies.....

If they maintain the gym it'll be great. So many Broken and old equipment. Didn't understand why they are still keeping them. Remove those and make some place to walk. Un maintained cusions No proper lighting. Looks like a centuries old building.

Classic gym for old school and new school weight lifters. Gym would appeal to: Bodybuilders, Heavy Lifters, and old school gym buffs that want to take it back to the 80's.
The gym would not appeal to: Lazy, Former Eqinox members, L.A. Fitness members, and especially Planet Fitness members.

Great gym for serious gym rats. Just wish they'd clean it a bit better, fix the equipment on a timescale that's less than years, and stock the bathrooms with paper towels.

For those who really want to put in the effort to change themselves for the better, there's nowhere else to be.
A true California type gym with equipment you won't see anywhere else and plenty of it so you never have to wait and cool down no matter what your focus is. Dedicated cardio and stretching areas are a nice touch.
If you're serious about your workout this is where you go.

Great gym, but the hours are stupid. It's open on a Tuesday night at 3am while it's empty, but when it's packed on Saturdays and Sundays at 7 theyre forcing you out. It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. If youre going to only be open 24 hours on some nights during the week, why would you choose the nights that its the least crowded. Who is that accommodating? So dumb.

Don't come here if you're looking to run on the treadmill and watch movies for 20 minutes, this gym is purely for weightlifting and strength training. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside it is just every weight lifters dream. They have tons of machines, free weights, squat racks, benches, dumbbells (up to like 200 something pounds), you name it they have it. It has a very pure feel to it, in the sense that they just kind of threw everything in there and said have fun. If you live in the Rutherford area and are looking for a place to pursue strength training, this is the one. It is also very affordable, I ended up paying about 275 for a full year's membership, though that was with a special for the new year. Fantastic value!

No complaints from me. This place is perfect for people looking for a classic gym with a ton of machines, a ton of free weights, and little to no crowds. The gritty appearance adds to the atmosphere. Don't expect a posh, luxurious gym with countless amenities you need to pay for and rarely use. Here, you'll get the essentials and then some, without going overboard. The price reflects that mentality as well. They also allow new customers to try the gym for about a week. Give it a try and see for yourself. Great gym, great price.

After 20 plus years of going to gyms, I can honestly say that Strong and shapely is the best. The gym is spotless, the weights are ALWAYS racked and the facility has more than enough equipment to accommodate everyone from competitive powerlifters (such as myself) to everyday people just looking to get back in shape. Lastly, the gym is VERY affordable, especially for what they offer (free crossfit!). Make no mistake, this gym is the best.
