I have been training in slow burn at Fred’s studio for the past 4 years. Fred has created a scientific body building technique which is highly efficient, injury free, requiring no more than 30 minutes one or two times a week, allowing the body to both fatigue and recover according to its natural rhythm. The studio is kept spotlessly clean, the trainers follow Fred’s method meticulously and maintain a log of their client’s progress on each machine so it is clear how one is building strength over months and years.

I’ve trained with Fred for many years because his slow-burn program works. My weekly 30-minute training sessions have helped me remain in excellent physical shape as I’ve gotten older, an age-defying physicality that my friends often comment on. And I love the fact that at Serious Strength, failure (i.e. muscular fatigue) equals success (i.e. muscular improvement). It is the only thing I’ve ever done in my life where I’m focused on achieving consistent failure. More...

I have been a client at SlowBurn for more than four years and plan to continue indefinitely. A few years ago I started noticing I was getting significantly weaker--the inevitable age related sarcopenia. I was even having trouble standing out of the ski chairlift at the top. I tried going to several gyms but I didn't know what I was doing and the personal trainers weren't much help. And it was easy to find an excuse to not go. I bought a few sessions at this studio in a school auction without much intention to even go. But at the orientation session I was hooked. The instructor told me exactly what to expect, discussed my diet, coached my form and calibrated and recorded all the machine settings. I think I have worked with eight trainers since starting and every one of them has been outstanding. They are all certified but more importantly they have been trained by Fred Hahn in the Slow Burn protocol, which provides the most efficient results (this is backed up by peer reviewed studies) with almost no chance of injury. Weight lifted and time under load is recorded and at the next session I almost always exceed one of these metrics even if only by a few seconds or a pound or two. The MedX machines are top of the line and are geared to your motion so there are no sticking points. After wasting so much time and money at previous gyms with no real results I consider the price reasonable and necessary. And because of the intensity of the sessions you do not need to supplement with "cardio". That's built in. You just need to rest up (recover) for the next session. More...

I had the pleasure of being a speaker at an event for which Nubia handled PR. Every detail was looked after with artistry and care, and every aspect well organized, from the pre-event messaging and social media to the event itself. I would hire Nubia and Cielo Consulting for any event I do, for the peace of mind in knowing every detail was in good hands. More...

This is the best experience in my life exercising. While it is hard, it is not very long, so I can handle it. It is very efficient. For me, along with getting stronger, I also completely normalize my cholesterol. The studio is put together with love and everybody is just a delight. And it is perfect for our busy modern life. You can get in and out in your business day, you will not need to shower....on top of that, you will get lots of advice andvrespurces on health, eating, well being. Go for it, guys. More...

I have never much liked exercising before. Slow Burn is amazing. I have gotten stronger very quickly. The training is so absorbing that it is not in the least bit boring (a problem I have had with all other kinds of exercise programs). The trainers are great. I have been recommending Slow Burn to all my friends. More...

Excellent trainers. Great strength program.
There's a MedEx back exercise machine that has worked well for me to live without back pain and got good results from day one now going on 10 years.

This is not directly about the gym, however I cant recommend the workout highly enough - as outlined in the book "Slow Burn Fitness Revolution" by the owners of Serious Strength -- the basis of the workouts done at Serious Strength. Its the BEST. I was fortunate enough to come across a recommendation by Dr. Bruce West about this workout almost 12 years ago. And I've followed the workout most of the last decade. I started it in my mid 50s and am now mid 60's This workout has allowed me to maintain my stamina, travel, be independent, stay fit, enjoy occasional recreational sprints, and stay healthy. AND its truly seriously only 30 minutes a week to do. I've recommended it to a number of friends. I cant tell you what fun it is to have young buff guys offer to lift my luggage into the overhead bin only to swing it up there myself with ease. I appreciate their offer but love breaking up the stereotype which is implied. My answer to their surprised look is - "Strength training works." More...

I've been using Serious Strength for years. As a doctor in the neighborhood, I've tried many different gyms, trainers, and systems to stay in shape. Nothing compares to Serious Strength in terms of value vs. time spent, efficiency, and professionalism. I highly recommend this private gym if you are serious about fitness. It doesn't get any better. Dr. Jamie BlauUpper Westside Chiropractic More...

I met Fred in the summer of 2010 and got a copy of his book, which introduced me to the Slow Burn protocol. At the risk of waxing hyperbolic, the strength training has changed my life. I'm stronger today (and I feel better) at age 38 than I was when I rowed crew at age 18. My success on SB has made me an evangelist for the cause. Plus, Fred's a great guy, and he's deeply knowledgable about diet and exercise science. If you do one thing for yourself this year, start training using Fred's methods. You'll be glad you did.

I have been a client for several years and their philosophy and staff are superb. I have had several medical issues and injuries which would have been worse had I not been training at Serious Strength. In addition, it is the client's health and well being that is most important to Fred and his super staff. I cannot recommend them more highly. More...

I've been doing super-slow HIT (High Intensity Training) for the past 20 years and at 60 I am injury-free, stronger and leaner than when I was 30. I had read Fred Hahn's book, and on a recent trip to NYC booked in for a workout. I thought I was an expert but Fred and his team take training to a higher level, with equipment even upgraded to better match the human strength curve and loads of nuances in the way they program clients. I really felt the difference and especially confident that I was in good hands. Finally, it's obvious that they go the extra mile in integrating effective nutritional advice with great training advice = better results with less time in the gym. It's also small which I like, as you get the attention you need and feel at home. This is not the gym for those wanting to go do their own thing. Fred would not allow that. It's for people who want a great training outcome from cutting edge training delivered by trainers who understand quality training. More...

I have been training at Serious Strength for 15 years, because it works better and is easier to stick with than anything else. The gym is always scrupulously clean and cool, and the trainers always make the most of my time. It sounds too good to be true: 30 minutes, no need to shower afterward, and you get noticeably stronger and leaner. But it is ALL true. It's a tough 30 minutes, make no mistake. But if you are serious about the gym, Serious Strength is it. More...

I was a customer there for several years around the turn of the century, and returned when I moved back to NYC. Working out intensely (to the point, sometimes, of being unable to walk for a few minutes afterwards, I was that wiped out) lead to me having the best blood test numbers of my life, despite still having more fat than I'd like. (And the fat is decreasing, too.)Workouts are up to twice a week, for a half hour each time; that's all that's required. More...

When I first joined SS I saw almost immediate results in body comp and just about immediate results in energy and vitality. I would highly recommend reading Fred's book first , "The Slow Burn Fitness Revolution" which is available on Amazon and hopefully will be in e-book format soon. The book can be read in under two hours but gives you a great holistic view of what you are about to undertake in terms of training and even diet. The gym is the cleanest gym I have ever been to. It's cozy but has more than enough room to accommodate at least three personal sessions going on at one time. While I have not worked with all the trainers, the ones I have worked with have been enthusiastic, helpful, encouraging and knowledgeable. Like any personal training sessions they are definitely pricey but the view here is that with this type of work out, you really only need 1-2 sessions per week to see results.If money is tight you can do one home session (which is detailed in his Book) and one gym session per week. Because you are using one slow set to failure, working out at home is not that hard and minimal equipment is needed.I can't think of anything I'd change about Serious Strength and it's a pleasure to be able to focus on training when actually training and not be barraged by gym full of people.

As a bicoastal gal, I workout at Serious Strength whenever in Manhattan, and continue practicing Fred Hahn's Slow Burn method when on the left coast. I trained here for several years before my work required me to travel back and forth to LA. Like most people and especially as an ex-dancer, I had been lead to believe a plethora of exercise myths. I had tried almost every exercise method out there. Fred Hahn and his staff are the most knowledgeable instructors I have ever found (and I have found many) in understanding exercise and nutrition through true up to date scientific research. What I love about it is that you can achieve all the benefits exercise can provide in 1-2 sessions per week. It was hard for me to understand that you don't need to be in the gym everyday to lose weight and be healthy, but I have never looked and felt better in my life and I literally exercise 30 minutes per week. For me, the proof is in the puddin! (except they don't advice you eat puddin ;). I am just hoping Fred will open a gym in Los Angeles! More...
