Don’t know how this gym got a low rating it should be the highest rated in suffolk county. Amazing instructors, great atmosphere, very clean and great equipment, everyone is super friendly and helpful. Home to world class competitors, children, and moms and dads just looking to get in shape, I’ve trained at every gym in suffolk that matters and maxum is by far the best and it’s not even close!
