Iron Arena Powerlifting & Performance

This review is long overdue. Joining Iron Arena 16 months ago is one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place. From the equipment, to the team atmosphere, to Jason’s programming, this facility is top notch. If you’re considering joining, I strongly encourage you to shoot Jason an email and give it a go. I wish I had done it sooner. Come ready to work. See ya there.

Iron Arena can help you learn to be your strongest, healthiest self! I’m an older gal and researched many gyms and types of workouts for us older folks. Weight Training is recommended for 40+ to maintain muscle tone and strength as we fight against the perils of aging . Don’t be intimidated by the professional weight lifters, as a beginner there was always an experienced gym goer to help me on my new journey. Feeling stronger and more balanced these days. I appreciate Jason Manenkoff and staff. Please do your health a solid and go for a visit.

Super clean, well maintained, top of the line equipment- I couldn’t ask for more as a lifter. Friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable coaches and trainers and members. Eleiko plates and bars, Rogue kilos, plenty of squat racks, comp racks and deadlift platforms. Whether you are a competitive lifter or just into general fitness, Iron Arena has it all. Love being part of a private gym where you get to know the members and its never too crowded.

Echoing all of the positive reviews below. I joined Iron Arena following a 6-month COVID hiatus from the gym (former Equinox NYC member), and could not have been happier to do so. Jason has built an incredible facility, with all of the equipment you could possibly need and a membership base that is friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. Whether you are looking to start on a powerlifting program, are a seasoned veteran looking for a well-equipped place to train, or just looking for an all-around great, local gym in which you can get into shape, I would highly recommend Iron Arena.

Just got back from a Technique Instruction class with Jason yesterday 3/9, and I have to say Jason’s attention to detail is astounding. When teaching the technique for the three main lifts (SBD), Jason puts out his years of experience on display as he goes into detail on not only how to perform the lifts safely, but how to perform them better and more efficiently so as to not leave kilos on the table.nnHis facility is also a reflection of Jason - professional and no-bs. He and his members function together as a team, always willing to support each other on heavy lifts while vocalizing queues to each member so they can perform their lifts to the maximum potential possible.nnI can’t recommend enough. Thanks, Jason!nnFrancisco
