Frequently Asked Questions

I'm not an advanced lifter — is this for me?

Yes. Every program is built around where you are right now, not where you "should" be. Whether you've never picked up a barbell or you've been training for years, Coach Nick designs your sessions around your current ability and goals, with technique coaching built in from day one.

Do you train women and professionals new to lifting?

Absolutely. J2Fit works with all ages, all experience levels, and all backgrounds, including women and busy professionals who are new to structured strength training. You'll get the same individualized programming and hands-on technique coaching regardless of where you're starting from.

Where are you located?

J2Fit NYC is located at 37 Union Square West, Floor 2, New York, NY 10003, right in Union Square.

What's the closest subway to the facility?

J2Fit NYC is at 37 Union Square West, Floor 2, half a block from the 14 St, Union Sq station (4/5/6, N/Q/R/W, and L trains). Easy access from anywhere in Manhattan, Brooklyn, or Queens.

How do packages work?

All sessions are 60 minutes and include individualized programming, technique coaching, and ongoing adjustments. You choose a weekly frequency (1x, 2x, or 3x per week) and buy the matching package: a 4-pack for once a week, an 8-pack for twice a week, or a 12-pack for three times a week. Your package renews once you've used your sessions. Single drop-in sessions are also available.

What about Olympic lifting or powerlifting?

The Union Square facility is fully equipped for it, including a full Olympic weightlifting setup, squat racks, and strength platforms. Nick coaches structured programming for both Olympic lifting and powerlifting, whether you're building your first snatch or training to compete.

What happens on my first session?

Your first session starts with a brief conversation about your goals, training history, and anything that might affect programming (injuries, mobility limitations, competition dates). From there, Coach Nick will assess your movement and start you on the first phase of your program. You'll leave with a clear picture of what your training is going to look like and why.
