Robert Wood Johnson Fitness And Wellness Center

I’ve been coming here with my husband for the past three years, and we always look forward to boxing with Justin and cycling with Crystal! Crystal’s classes are especially motivating, and her energy makes every workout enjoyable. One of the things I love most about this gym is the friendly and encouraging staff, they always make you feel welcome. The facilities are consistently well maintained, including the pool, saunas, and locker rooms, which are always clean. It’s also incredibly convenient to stop by after work at the hospital. Overall, it’s been a great place to stay active, and I highly recommend it!

I don’t usually write online reviews, but I really wanted to share how grateful I am for my experience here. Breanah Marcum has been an incredible personal trainer. I’ve been training with her for about three months, and during my recent InBody session, we found out that I gained almost two pounds of muscle — which was such an exciting and encouraging result for me. Breanah is not only an amazing trainer, but also such a kind, genuine, and encouraging person. She always walks me through everything during each session, and I feel completely comfortable, supported, and motivated working with her. She is truly someone you can trust, and I feel very lucky to train with her. I also want to mention Cheryl Wilson, the Sales Manager. She was the first person I met when I visited the center, and she was one of the warmest and most welcoming people I’ve ever met. She is always smiling and makes everyone feel comfortable and happy to be there. Her presence really makes the whole fitness center feel welcoming and well-managed. Breanah and Cheryl are honestly two of the biggest reasons I joined and continue coming to this fitness center. I’m so happy with my training, the results, and the overall environment. I truly couldn’t be happier.

I recently joined RWF Fitness and am very glad I did. The facility is beautiful with an impressive lap pool, fully equipped fitness floor, many fitness classes and programs to help meet holistic health goals, complimentary personal training for beginners to help ensure fitness is approached safely and appreciating many facets of health. I have never been as impressed by another fitness and wellness professional as Cheryl Wilson. Cheryl is someone that just inspires one to live better by who she is. Her kind disposition, commitment to health and wellness and genuine good naturedness just radiates upon first meeting her. It's clear that she is truly dedicated to the success of the facility and all its members. Honestly, everyone that I interacted with so far in the facility has been kind and helpful. Showers and locker rooms are clean and I look forward to many workouts here! Highly recommend RWJ Fitness & Wellness Center and Cheryl Wilson! *Update: I recently completed the new member complimentary assessment with Almir Madison, and I can honestly say it was one of the most comprehensive and impressive onboarding consultations I’ve experienced—not just at a gym, but even compared to some medical appointments. First and foremost, Almir is outstanding to work with. He brings a unique blend of engineering precision, training expertise, and a holistic wellness mindset, all paired with an incredibly positive attitude. As someone focused on building strength and optimizing long-term health (rather than purely aesthetic goals), I was especially impressed by the depth of their assessments. The body composition analysis went far beyond basic BMI, offering a detailed breakdown of muscle, fat, and fluid levels, along with meaningful insights into mobility and overall function. Armed with this information—and with Almir’s thoughtful guidance on how to approach barbell, kettlebell, and Pilates classes—I feel confident that I’m starting on a safe, balanced, and sustainable fitness path. Beyond the assessment, the facility continues to impress. The pool is consistently clean, and even when it’s busy, members are respectful and considerate about sharing space. The therapy pool is especially fantastic. Missy is an absolute gem of an instructor. Her kettlebell and barbell classes are both effective and genuinely fun. She brings great energy, a positive attitude, and a clear commitment to supporting her students—it’s obvious she truly cares. The RWJ Fitness & Wellness center has really made New Brunswick feel more like home. Having experienced many health and wellness facilities, I can confidently say this is one of my absolute favorites. Highly recommend. Genuinely nice people, knowledgeable and kind staff and a variety of classes tailored to many fitness levels!

I had always been uncomfortable going to gyms because I didn't know how to use the equipment and I thought the gym was mostly for people who were younger and more fit than me. When I joined RWJ Fitness & Wellness I was immediately comfortable with the environment and especially liked that I saw people of a wide age range, and with different levels of gym expertise. I signed on with Emily, my personal trainer, and she has been wonderful in giving me motivation and confidence. After eight weeks my body composition analysis showed an increase in muscle mass and reduction in body fat. I love my weekly sessions with her. In addition, I work privately with Christian in the Pilates studio. She is exceptional, helping me to develop coordination on the Reformer and then pushing me gently into increasingly more strenuous workouts. The amazing results of this are the increased strength and greater flexibility I have developed after only six months. I love the holistic approach that Pilates provides with its total body focus. I also want to commend the entire staff at RWJ Fitness for always being so pleasant and remembering my name! I can't say enough about all of the benefits of my membership at RWJ Fitness & Wellness. It's more than a great gym. It's a great health spa!

This is the gym that has everything you need, but not everything you want. -Equipment: They have all the basic equipment you need to get a decent workout, but lack more specialized equipment like lateral raise machines, pull over machines, overhead tricep machines, etc. While this equipment is not completely needed, I would like to have it for their ~$50-60 per month average price tag. Equipment is out of order semi-frequently, but they do repair things in a mostly timely fashion. Unfortunately they invested a lot of money and floor space into some redundant and weird air-powered equipment that people overall do not use (I am guessing people don't like it, I definitely do not). This is a shame because they could have used this money and space to obtain some of the things I listed above. Cardio equipment is also somewhat over-represented on the floor. -Staff: The staff are pretty awesome. Not gonna lie. They're all super nice, friendly, knowledgeable, receptive, etc. Instructors are amazing in the classes. This is probably the best part of this gym. -Tech: wifi is not good, unfortunately. At peak hours it is frequently unusable (I am guessing because too many people trying to connect?) and the gym is in a deadzone for cellular. Makes it difficult when trying to connect to youtube, spotify, apple music, etc, to download music. It is fairly common to be stuck with whatever is playing on the gym speakers if you do not download your music / videos in advance. I think in 2026 gyms have not excuse to not have free, reliable wifi, so this is a major detractor in my opinion. -Facilities: Super clean. Lighting is decent / good. Bathrooms are in good shape and always clean. Unfortunately there are not complimentary towels for shower, which I would expect for a $50-60 price tag. There is a pool which I am sure is great but I don't use it. Has a sauna. Facilities in this gym are overall very good. -Culture: Overall older than average ages for the members compared to other gyms. All depends on what you are looking for. Overall this is the gym that has everything you need, and benefits from close proximity to the hospital for people that work there or live in New Brunswick. I am very satisfied with this gym overall and would recommend joining due to it's convenient location. I just wish it had more to offer for the price.
