Hercules Gym - Syracuse (NY)

5 /5 Kevin P: I signed up just from the reviews and pictures alone. Today was my first day inside and the place is amazing. It definitely took me a few minutes to find the equipment I wanted to use just from the amount of choices there is. Its definitely a big change coming from a big chain

5 /5 Sarah Byrne: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hercules Gym is an absolute powerhouse in the Syracuse fitness scene. This place is huge — easily one of the biggest training spaces in the area — and packed with every piece of equipment you can imagine. In many cases, they even have multiple versions of the same machine, which means no waiting around and endless training variations. It’s truly a bodybuilder’s heaven. The layout and use of space are exceptional, and the atmosphere is welcoming, focused, and supportive. Hercules has that rare community feel where beginners and seasoned athletes train side by side, and everyone is rooting for each other. This is the perfect place to support a local business owner instead of the typical chain gyms. Prices are excellent, and the 24-hour access plus flexible 7-day and daily passes make it convenient for absolutely any schedule. Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or looking to push your goals to the next level, Hercules Gym delivers everything you need and more. Highly recommend.

5 /5 TBMC TBMC: This is the gym to beat in Central and Western NY. I went there just for the day as I was traveling for work. Very friendly front desk, clean facility, that gritty hardcore look but with all of the modern and specialty equipment you can think of for athletes and body builders. The guy at the front desk was extremely nice to me, and as a black man from NYC that was extremely refreshing. I actually found out that my mother passed away the day that I went there, so it was the perfect place to blow off some steam and let out some anger on the weights instead of carrying it around all day. The gym was top tier and the customer service was perfect. I didnt feel weird for just getting a day pass and there was no pressure sales tactics to sign up. If i lived within an hour of this place i would 100% join. Even the people working out were focused on their workout and werent looking at other people too much. A+++++

5 /5 Andre Britton: Best GYM in central NY. This is a place for true lifters. DB up to 200lbs. Tons of equipments to hit any body part you could think of. Owner is pretty good/cool.

5 /5 Alyssa DeLeon: A day pass is super reasonable. The guy working the desk when we were there was so chill and nice. You have to pay online if not using cash, so cash may be easier. Any machine imaginable was available. And they have multiples of most things. Great benches, which is primarily why we went. This is a hardcore gym and they play hardcore music, so be aware of that if you are more sensitive to certain music. Bring your earbuds or something. Truly cannot praise this gym enough. Just A+ experience all around.
