This is literally the best gym in the South Jersey area. The trainers treat you like family. The facility is top-notch and you are absolutely going to get results and all you have to do is show up. We owe a lot to Anthony, Jeff, and the whole community there and I know that many other people do as well. You won’t be disappointed if you give it a try. More...

I've been training with Anthony for 27 years, now going into my 28th year—that fact alone speaks volumes. I’m not the type to stick with something that doesn’t work, so the longevity of my commitment says it all. I’ve known Anthony since before he took over Smart Bodies, and I’ve watched him grow into an extraordinary trainer. He’s constantly evolving and adapting, which keeps every workout fresh and effective. One of Anthony’s strengths is his creativity—not just in crafting workouts but in reimagining how equipment can be used to improve the fitness experience. The atmosphere at Smart Bodies is another standout. The trainers, the clients, and the overall vibe make it more than a gym—it’s a community. I’ve made lifelong friends here, which is priceless. From a business perspective, Smart Bodies' no-contract model is a game changer. The flexibility to cancel appointments outside of the 12-hour window is so convenient. Anthony is also incredibly accommodating. If you’re having an off day or dealing with an injury, he tailors the workout to your needs without skipping a beat. That level of attentiveness and care is rare. I can’t say enough good things about Smart Bodies and Anthony. This place has had a profound impact on my health and well-being over the years, and I’m so grateful for it. More...

Many years ago, Anthony at Smart Bodies was recommended to me by my chiropractor. He is a very knowledgeable and conscientious owner/trainer. Anthony cares deeply about his client's issues and is constantly trying to improve your situation and his workouts so they will be most beneficial for you. This gym is not typical. It has a warm and friendly atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable. It's a fun place to be, especially during the Halloween season. 😂 Gym feels like home and Anthony feels like family. More...

Great exercise facility and the absolute best trainers. I have known Anthony and the trainers for a long time. They gear the work out towards your abilities. They challenge you but don’t over do it. They handle all ages from teenagers to 90-year-olds. So don’t feel it’s not right for you. I have known Anthony probably for over 20 some years and highly recommend them. More...

Smart Bodies is the only gym that I have ever enjoyed going to. I have been working out at Smart Bodies for over 8 years. Being able to make an appointment online and have a trainer take me through each workout has been life changing for me . I feel stronger than I ever did. Anthony and his team of trainers individualize every session and can work with and around any physical issues to maximize each workout session. It is a very supportive and encouraging environment with everyone working at their own level. They help and encourage clients from teens to folks over 80. It is truly a great gym, with great trainers, and friendly people, More...

I know it's not typical for a business owner to write a review of his own business, however I felt this is the proper platform to express my immense gratitude for the clients that have supported me going on 25 years as a business owner. Not only do they share their thoughts on what I do to make our fitness home better for all of us, but the fact that they took their personal time to tell Google and the internet about their 5 star experiences at Smart Bodies. It means way more to me to me than just another marketing avenue. Reading the kind words my clients have shared confirmed I made the right decision in my in my life to be a business owner. It gives me great pride and satisfaction knowing what Smart Bodies does for their clients makes a difference in their lifelong quest to stay healthy and fit! More...

The best trainers & most positive fitness center environment! I’ve seen the trainers working with teens and people in their 90’s, people with different issues such as working back from knee surgery & they can modify sessions to include everyone for getting strong. There’s instructions for warming up before each individualized training session. Expect fun & expect results! Each session is unique and planned per client, challenging yet safe as the trainers monitor how exercises are done. I was once a kid who loathed gym class. Now I love & look forward to every session at Smart Bodies. The owner is a trainer himself & takes great pride in having innovative equipment & implementing new exercises in an immaculate, positive environment. You will feel welcome here no matter what you starting point, beginner or advanced! More...

My trainer Mike is very knowledgeable and makes things easy for me so I do not have to think. This gym is not overly crowded due to the limited amount of sessions for each time slot.

Last year I joined a local “corporate run” gym and promptly never went. Then I joined Smart Bodies because I needed help in reaching my goals and I could not be happier! I’ve been training with Anthony who is incredibly knowledgeable; he doesn’t just set up the machine - he explains the fundamentals which has increased my confidence. He offers motivation and validation on the good and bad days. I deeply appreciate his focus on keeping my body in the correct form and gently correcting when I make a mistake which has helped me be more aware and mindful of postures. As a woman and trauma therapist who has struggled to feel safe in the gym, one of Smart Bodies standout features is the sense of safety and community. Toxic gym culture does not exist at Smart Bodies. My anxiety surrounding working with weights is gone which allows me to focus on the work and on meeting my goals. I’ll never go to another personal training gym! More...

When I started exercising and changing my body in my 20's, I was so excited that I started sharing advice with everyone that asked what I was doing. When I realized this can be an occupation, I started to work for Smart Bodies in 1995 in Philadelphia. When the business moved to New Jersey, I helped cultivate Smart Bodies as the best place in the South Jersey community to go for personalized results in a family friendly and non-intimidating environment.
As I tried to venture out to open my own facility with the same character and reputation, the owner offered me to purchase Smart Bodies for myself. As cliche as it sounds, it was meant to be.
