Mid City Gym & Tanning Reviews

This is some text inside of a div block.

They have a Nautilus pullover machine. The legit, old-school chain driven one; Dorian Yates Blood & Guts style. The place could literally be on fire and I’d still rate it 5 stars from that alone. Owner or whoever in charge of the equipment knows what’s up. Jokes aside, place is kept clean and they have a nice selection of bodybuilding-oriented equipment. I highly recommend trying the pullover machine, plate loaded chest fly and the panotta low row if you’ve never used them. The stretch and squeeze is unlike any other exercise. The vibe is very hardcore yet friendly. And unlike many “hardcore bodybuilding” gyms the bathrooms don’t stink like roider piss (if you know you know. If you take “vitamins” please get your liver enzymes checked cuz we can smell it). Goes without saying that they also have squat racks benches a dumb bell rack etc; the basics. Cable station with rowing and pull down area and lots of fun attachments. There is also a stretching area. Went at 5pm on a Sunday and was not too crowded either. This spot is in the middle of Times Square basically though, so day pass is like 30 bucks and I’m assuming everything else in there is priced accordingly as well but I didn’t try the shakes or buy any of the protein bars so i wouldn’t know. Front desk guy was super helpful with everything and kind. If you’re a fan of Arthur Jones’s HIT style training, this is the place to go based on the machines they have available. They got lots of gadgets and gizmos in there where you can just lock your body in and take a muscle group to absolute failure and beyond. My only nitpick is I wish they had a high row machine. They have a hammer strength chest supported row and a panotta low row but I feel like a plate loaded high row would make this gym feel complete.
