In the pursuit for perfection, we often find stumbling blocks. But the journey can be smooth with the incredible discovery of GYM U, the newest luxury gym by David Barton.

More than just another place to work out, the New York City haven is a mecca for wellness. The legendary founder has managed to create felicitous fitness. Spanning 35,000 sq. feet, each corner of the facility is thoughtfully designed by renowned architects Stephen Alton and Charles Renfro. You step into energizing environment, complete with a DJ booth, to get users in the workout mood. Harsh fluorescent lighting is replaced by seductive mood lighting that helps members look and feel their best. It is all modern and all spectacular to witness.

The emotions tied into each motion you make at GYM U is both notable and builds a positive lasting impression. A community is found in this unique finding in The Big Apple. You will find yourself motivated to rise to the challenge to create a better you – a richer and more meaningful existence.

Since opening his first gym in NYC in 1992, David has cultivated an environment of fun-loving fitness enthusiasts, where trainers and staff have been with Barton from the very beginning of his career, a testament to the positive and welcoming culture. It’s family that is there to support you on your journey to finding ideal wellness. A divine setting is only enhanced with the special offerings of GYM U, which carries a host of pre and post workout offerings that truly make fitness a fun and achievable lifestyle.

It proudly is the only gym in the city that offers dedicated Neubie training sessions. Previously accessible only to top athletes and clinics, this machinery is used by Barton’s top-of-class personal trainers to promote tissue healing and optimize the healing and repairing of bone, muscle, connective tissue, and nerves.

Neubie workouts are approachable for anyone. Whether you are in prime shape or coming back from an injury, the Neuro-Bio-Electric is a patented and FDA-cleared direct current (stimulation device. Using DC has several unique effects on patients, including promoting tissue healing and optimizing the healing and repairing of bone, muscle, connective tissue, and nerves. While repairing and healing the body takes time, the Neubie is even better known for creating “wow” moments with patients who make functional changes very quickly.

Trying it for the first time you feel an immediate difference in your workout routine. It helps you feel confident as parts of your body are divinely stimulated in ways that you have never felt.

Imagine being amped up and supercharged as you do squats and lunges that feel like you are doing them at a 500% magnitude. Your body rocks like an earthquake and a volcanic release of stimulating vibes go through your movements. You gain the confidence, and you feel like one workout was the equivalent of five all at once. And it is even suitable for those who perhaps have issues or body parts under recovery stages. Working out with a Neubie under these conditions is better than any physical therapy session you will find.

Additionally, GYM U offers an incredible wellness room that brings to clients IV drips, Ozone capsule therapy and vitamin pushes, courtesy of uptown wellness boutique Fuel Stop. It is all just more of the magic you can find only here and as curated by the amazing David. It’s something that will give you gratitude and a deep appreciation for your body that becomes a temple to worship when you treat yourself to these sessions.

GYM U is now showcasing Holiday Recovery specials. Discounted goodies include a rejuvenating 30-minute Ozone therapy for just $100 (usually $160).
