How Are You Doing?

Call now (866) 758-2320

Hey ,

How have you been? We are living in strange and often very stressful times. It’s something I’ve been thinking a lot about. How out of control things feel. I’ve heard a similar sentiment from some you here at the gym. In a world that’s crazy and unpredictable, it’s nice to have something to rely on. That’s what the iron is to me. My training, the work I do, I’m in control of that. I can affect that. It’s empowering to be able to pull 100 or 200kg off the floor or press 36kg overhead. There is a comfort in knowing that when I come to the gym, the barbell, the kettlebell, the platforms are waiting for me. I hope some of you feel that way too. I hope your training, your workouts, are helping with your mental health as much as they are with your physical. Anyway, I want you to know we’re here for you too. Whatever way we can help you to coap and even thrive in today’s world -that’s what we want to do.

Congratulations to Gina Koulermos and Greg Zajac for graduating the Iron Monkey Rite of Passage! They each have completed our 12 week program, learned how to safely and effectively train in our gym, and are now officially Open Lifters!

Another BIG Congratulations to Nick Basile for hitting a major milestone with his 48kg Turkish Getup! This is a huge accomplishment, and we’re really proud to have been a part of it. Nick has received the Iron Monkey Strength Tiger Getup Pin and a place of immortality on the wall of our Hall of Strength.

We’d also like to give a big warm welcome to Nick Lakhan. Nick has chosen to intern with us for the rest of the Fall and we’re super excited to be a part of his development and for him to see the amazing stuff you all are doing here!

When we opened in February we were primarily a Small Group Training Gym, but with the business closures in March and the occupancy restrictions placed on all gyms, we’ve been forced to change our business model. We’re now predominantly a Personal Training Gym that offers 2 very distinct services. There is the obvious one on one training, and then there is the more novel Supervised Training model. All of our “Open Lifters” are using this service now. What’s the difference between Supervised Training and just going to the gym? Great question! In Supervised Training you’re assigned a program, and when exercising in our gym you’re always getting coaching or help. Here, everyone always has a coach. We love that, and we love being able to help all of you to excel and reach your goals.

Changes we have made and will make

For one, we’re looking to expand our hours of operation. Look for an email sometime next month with details on what the new hours and policy are.

Secondly, we have changed our appointment policy. You will have to book your appointments for 1:1 Coaching or Monkey Rite of Passage sessions on the MindBody App no later than 6 hours in advance. If you’re within that window and still want to book, you’ll have to contact us to do so. Supervised Open Training has also been changed to no later than 1 hour prior to when you plan to come in and lift. This change will allow us to properly prepare for your arrival and make sure our equipment is thoroughly cleaned between sessions.

Here’s the deal. You make 1 post a week on Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn and we’ll give you a $10 credit on account (do all three and we’ll give you $30!). All you have to do is is tag us in your post and talk about how much you love it here. Please help us get the word out about what we do so we can continue to build a Strong Community on Long Island.
