Maik is arguably the best personal trainer in NYC and the absolute best trainer I have ever had! He helped me with my postpartum transition back to my fittest self through weekly in-person training sessions that left me feeling like I had actually worked my muscles and not just moved weights around. As a renowned competitive bodybuilder and an Olympian, he knows exactly what it takes to achieve the results his clients desire. His training regimens as well as tailored diets come from a deep scientific understanding of nutrition and metabolism and are the opposite of the pseudoscientific garbage and fads that are floating around on social media. Did I mention that he is also an engaging conversationalist and I hardly noticed how the hour flew by when we were working out together? If you are interested in real results, pick up the phone and give Maik a call. You'll be glad you did!

I met Maik after working out with another coach for 6 months+ and staying pretty much stagnant. Daily workouts, constantly chasing higher weights, but no progress. That was me when I met Maik through a recommendation from a close friend.

I did an initial workout with Maik and told him about my issue of staying flat and not seeing any gains.

Within just 30 days Maik has identified the nature of the issue in both my diet and types of exercise that I was doing and has developed a strategy, goals and objectives.

I started seeing progress in just a couple of weeks. Here I am slightly more than a month into working with Maik and seeing major changes and transformations of my body.

If you’re looking for a strategic approach to how you look and feel and not just another meathead, come to Maik and he will handhold you to the destination where you’re trying to get.

Highly recommended

Maik Wiedrbach is the man, I can’t say enough about his workout routines and how I went from a 2 dimensional physique to a 3 dimensional physique in from his workouts. I decided to log my data, as well to showcase my gains, on my personal website that is in beta at joekohlerfitness.netlify.app

Seriously you cannot go wrong by training from this man, I read Arnold’s encyclopedia, and while it is a great read, I believe Maik is the most knowledgeable guy around (on YouTube specifically) for building a persons physique, bar none.

Thanks Maik, I hope to be hitting the stage in 2024 thanks to you.

We are very glad that we found out about Maik Wiedenbach. It is hard to maintain a workout regimen, at least it always has been for us, so the personal workout plans have really helped. Everything is tailored to our individual needs. This is so much better than just joining a gym. So if you are looking for a personal trainer in New York, look no further than Maik Wiedenbach.

Gym itself is very high quality and always clean and roomy. Trainers are very knowledgeable and patient - will take time to answer all your questions both within session times and if you’re working out on your own. They’re all supportive, and their plans are customizable and targeted towards goals. All around great experience.

Amazing team here - Have trained with Greg, Hilly and Jay. All are highly knowledgeable and inspiring people. Having great results in a short period of time.

Came across trainer Alex Rios by chance, and it’s been above and beyond ever since then. Was coming off a shoulder injury and he helped me get back to 100% in less than a month. It’s more than personal training— It’s accountability, discipline, encouragement and a whole lotta fun. After the first training session, I knew my goals were not only possible, but right around the corner. Can’t wait to see what the future holds!
05 September 2023 23:24
Signed up for training with Maik, Hasan and his team recently and am having a wonderful experience. You can tell immediately they truly care about their clients - they’re incredibly friendly and helpful when it comes to setting out a training plan and correcting technique. Recommend very highly. Best strength/fitness experience I’ve encountered in New York by a long shot.

Hands down the best gym of all time! Extremely knowledgeable trainers and the equipment is the latest and greatest in the industry. I am grateful that I found this amazing place. It’s working……!

Maik Wiedenbach is an excellent fitness trainer for females and males both. He and his team of trainers understand the special requirements of females and design special fitness sessions for them. The best feature of their fitness programs is that they do not recommend any fad diets and instead understand a client’s personal goal. Different exercises are recommended for muscle growth, weight loss, improved aerobic fitness, and increased core strength. Personal trainers for women guide them through various exercises and motivate them to achieve a new level of fitness. I will certainly recommend this gym with the latest equipment and personalized fitness training sessions to my friends and family.

One of a kind set up-
The Gym is a spotless and true work of art.
All the trainers are excellent.
Everyone there is humble, and meets you where you are each time you walk in the room, helping you on your journey to a better physical and mental life.

I’ve been working with Jay and he has been outstanding.

Maik Wiedenbach is the best fitness instructor in New York. He not only recommends specific exercises and fitness sessions for his clients but also guides them about the right techniques. Another good thing about this fitness trainer in NYC is that he does not recommend any kind of fad diet. He uses his years of experience in the fitness industry to understand the body type and structure of the clients and then recommends strength training or other exercises to achieve the desired results. I feel fitter and stronger after training with Maik for over four months now and intend to continue the training sessions with him.
31 March 2023 6:49
The absolute best in the business! Maik and team are strategic and thoughtful about developing a plan for quick results. Highly recommend!
21 February 2023 19:22
When I first discovered Maik's gym about 3 months ago, I was a lap swimmer struggling with neck pain and had zero knowledge about strength training. But now I can confidently say that working out with my trainer-Jay, is always the highlight of my week.

Under Jay's tutelage, I have been gradually working on the weaker parts of my body and getting a little stronger each time we meet. I still often struggle with some of the exercises but Jay always find adjustments and adapt the workout to me. He doesn't only challenge me during our sessions but also inspire me to make changes in my life that have brought me better physical health.

I feel like I have only just started my fitness journey and that I still have a long long way to go, but I am glad that I will do so with the expertise of the trainers from Maik's gym.

An amazing PT experience. Very attentive and bespoke work outs. I was working in NYC for a week and Maik and his team managed to fit me in with one session a day and I left with more muscle tone and better posture and well being. I can’t wait to go back!
20 January 2023 6:16
Maik Wiedenbach is the best personal trainer in New York. His gym is equipped with the best machines and instruments, and his trainers are committed to their work. The trainers take a lot of pain to understand the needs of the clients and recommend exercises accordingly. What I like about Maik and his team is that they know so much about fitness and chalk out the best fitness training sessions for their clients. I am extremely happy with the results that I have achieved in my two months of training and would recommend this gym to anyone hoping to find a personal trainer who is dedicated and committed to fitness and bodybuilding.

Maik Wiedenbach is a very dedicated and knowledgeable trainer. He has a flexible schedule and accommodates my busy schedule as well. I was looking for a personal trainer in New York because I wanted someone to motivate me and he has provided me with the right motivation to get me on track in doing what I need to do. The workouts are very intense, but he has a very positive attitude and he always makes me feel comfortable. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to find a personal trainer.

I have always been interested in bodybuilding. However, no fitness trainer in NYC could satisfy me with personal training services. One day, I found Maik Wiedenbach on Google. I read about his experience and achievements in bodybuilding and personal training. Interested, I joined his gym. And voilà! I was impressed with the top-class equipment and individualized workout plan. All my bodybuilding requirements were met and I was one of the several happy clients of Maik. Therefore, undoubtedly, he is the best fitness instructor in New York. I gladly recommend his gym to anyone who wishes to build a great body.

This personal training gym is amazing. Maik Wiedenbach is great at figuring out strengths and weaknesses and creates a plan to help you achieve your goals based off that. He also mixes in a little bit of weights with the body work so that you can get a good full body workout. Throughout the workout he keeps you engaged in the process, and he trains you to achieve results. Overall, really good experience. If you're looking for a trainer that's committed to your fitness goals and friendly this is the best personal training gym in New York to go to!

It's difficult to find a good female personal trainer in NYC. After a long time, I found out about the gym run by Maik Wiedenbach. There I came in touch with experienced women personal trainers. The fitness regime they recommended is customized based on the special body requirements of women. I got a more personalized workout plan suited to my body type. I have been visiting the gym for months now and I am delighted to see how well I've shaped my body. My muscles have got toned and they make my body look as fit as it truly feels. I'm really happy to have joined the gym!

I was already a big fan of Maik Wiedenbach because I have read his critically acclaimed book on fitness: "101 Fitness Training Myths". After that, I wanted to get personally trained under him. I was flabbergasted to see that he already works as a private trainer in NYC. I jumpstarted bodybuilding under his guidance. He kept on challenging my limits and trained me with the most advanced fitness equipment. From having an overweight body, I developed abs and became highly fit. Now I feel proud to see myself in the mirror. I would definitely recommend Maik to one looking for personal training in New York.
21 December 2022 18:39
For a long time, I was looking for quality personal training in New York. Then my friend recommended the services of Maik Wiedenbach to me. I benefitted a lot from that. Maik provided me with a customized workout plan but also an individualized diet plan. As a result, I could better manage some of my health conditions that stemmed from dietary problems and weight gain. I felt healthy, well-built, and more confident in my body. Since then, I have been visiting the personal training gym of Maik and now this has become a part of my routine. I would highly recommend him to fitness enthusiasts.
06 December 2022 14:59
Over the years, I have tried many gyms but nothing took to me. I opted for personal training in New York as a last sought option. However, working with Maik Wiedenbach helped me gain my confidence back and ensured I reached my goals. He challenges and raises you every time and encourages you to do better and better. If you are looking for exercises for weight loss, he will put you through creative ways from strength training. He will also let you get nutrition counselling in NYC for your holistic development. His space makes you feel comforted, safe and nurtured and would definitely recommend you to try them out.
03 December 2022 10:41
Couldn’t recommend Maik Wiedenbach and his team of trainers more. They listened to my goals, took into account my experience, assessed my current condition, and as a result provide custom programs about every 4-6 weeks. This combined with assistance on my nutrition regime gives me more motivation and energy to keep working hard. Plus, it’s a lot of fun to exercise with the bespoke equipment in their gym!
29 November 2022 15:26
I’ve struggled with being overweight for quite a while and faced depression due to it. I’ve tried all kinds of things and gone to different Weight loss Training places in New York, but nothing seemed to work. I consulted Maik and started Strength Training For Weight Loss. My experience thereafter was truly magical as I've seen a lot of changes in my body and also received pretty good Nutrition Counseling. The diet recommended does not only facilitate weight loss but also a healthier lifestyle. Would highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for Weight Loss Training in New York. I am going to continue with this Personal Trainer in NYC until I reach my goals.
23 November 2022 18:24
I began training with Maik & Hillel a few months ago in May and I've seen tremendous results in that time. I've put on several pounds of muscle and I feel stronger and healthier throughout my days and nights. I'm also learning more about the right way to workout and build muscle. Maik really knows his stuff and he will guide you in a way that helps you achieve your desired goals. I'm much much stronger than I was in May:)

The custom equipment is also top notch:) And all of the trainers in his employ are very cool and friendly. I highly recommend Maik Wiedenbach Personal Training!
22 November 2022 9:20
This is hands down one of the best personal gyms you can go to! The team is made up of a great group of guys who all know exactly what they are talking about and know what they are doing and will fully work with you and your schedule! Maik’s gym was such a great place to go train especially on days when I wasn’t feeling my best! Amazing gym atmosphere for those who are new comers and to those who have been training for a while Fully recommend for anyone who is interested in personal training 12/10.
13 November 2022 10:49
Anyone care to share how much a month of training costs? You don't have to tell me what you paid just provide a low end and high end amount.
09 November 2022 6:42
I usually don't write reviews for PT training. All of them tend to be average. However, Mike system of trainers and workouts stands out from the ordinary. Not only is his equipment A class but his routines truly, truly, truly hits every part of the body. If you are serious about workout and getting results this is the best place for you. To me his prices are fair most other places are much more insane for Manhattan. A class trainers and A class training.

I play Australian Rules football in New York and was looking for trainers who can help me build muscle to enjoy the most amazing contact sport in the safest way possible.

Maik and his crew are the right ones! They understand anyone's needs and only care about the client's goals.
You can see it when you arrive at the gym: the environment is set to build confidence – welcoming, simple, clean, super friendly, and with the best equipment you can find in Town.

Now I'm able to be wisely physical on the field, they take care of me at the gym and when I travel, and they've even supported me in improving and enjoying posture on and off the pitch.

Highly recommended!

TLDR: If you want the best and are serious about your training, go to Maik.

I've worked with many trainers in my time - from boutique gyms, group training, to individual trainers. Through my search, I can say that Maik is the best trainer I have ever worked with so far and here's why:

1) Tailored Plans: There are many personal trainers out there and most of them do not have the expertise to work with specific goals. Sure - any training is better than nothing, but if your goal is to achieve a certain aesthetic and to do so efficiently, you have to go to Maik. He tailors the plan based on your goals and if you stick to it, the progress follows.

2) Knowledge: Maik has a wealth of knowledge and no nonsense attitude when it comes to building muscle and diet. I can easily say that majority of trainers learn what they need to in order to attain their license and perhaps not much after that. In my first few sessions with Maik, I have learned so much. His concepts are nuanced because they are based on a combination of science and experience. Too many trainers base their training plans purely on the anecdotal but that's not going to work for everyone. And speaking of his experience, it leads me to my third point.

3) Credentials: As a bodybuilder and Olympian swimmer, Maik has gone through all of the discipline and training in order to achieve the highest level or fitness and athleticism. Many trainers do not have these credentials. Sure, being a high level athlete doesn't automatically make you a great personal trainer but given #1 and #2, having these credentials really lends to the credibility.

Anyway If you are truly serious about your goals, you really need to visit Maik and his team. Other than the points above:
- The gym has the best equipment - many which I've never seen and are custom made from Germany. It's also very spacious and is never too crowded
- Everyone is very friendly and it's not an intimidating environment.

To keep things fair, if I had to call out any negatives:
-This style of training is not for everyone. It's not a place to only sit and chat or complain about your exercise.
-It's a no frills place when it comes to amenities - but I would say the quality of training, expertise, and equipment greatly overcome this
- Lack of cardio equipment (specifically a treadmill (I'm biased as a runner) - there's a rower but that's about it. In Maik's defense, it is not what he specializes in. Why cast a mediocre wide net?
