Love working with Randy and his team. I hate gyms, but coming to Platinum Fitness has been life altering. I went in looking to heal an injury that I got doing yard work years ago. I was amazed that I would actually be able to use my shoulder as I once had! Randy goes above and beyond to make me feel comfortable but also pushes me enough to get me where I need to be. His gym has some incredible additions that are geared toward recovery, like massage, heat devices, vibration guns, and even guided one-on-one stretching. I’m sure a lot of those extra services are what allowed me to recovery fully, as I have the tendency to go full force and just bear the pain for days or weeks later. Also, when things pivoted due to COVID, I was nervous as I care for my mom who is high risk. I always feel safe with the safety measures they take, including mask wearing, disinfection and social distancing. I don’t know how they do it! The new location is beautiful and I can’t wait to see once it is completely finished! So worth making the trip from Newtown.
Have been training with Randy at Platinum Fitness once a week for several years now. The day and time of my appointment remains the same, but the workouts do not. To say that he challenges me would be an understatement. He works on my strength, my flexibility and my mobility. I’ve built muscle and confidence. He understands the importance of recovery and has some amazing resources for clients. Quite simply I love my sessions at this gym. The place is spotless; equipment top notch and the atmosphere friendly and welcoming. Plus I get to say my trainer is the Platinum Playboy. Highly recommend- wish there were more stars
This gym is amazing! The equipment is awesome, the classes are challenging yet fun and the gym is always spotless!Randy is a spectacular trainer and truly wants what is best for his clients. He doesnt just say that either, he backs it up with the teaching and training that you need to succeed. His entire crew is amazing! This gym and the people there have become a very special part of my life!
My son has been going to this gym since he was 10 years old. He started with personal training for strength and agility. Randy tailored a program specifically that met his needs and that was age appropriate to his body and ability. He went from the slowest kid on the field to one of the fastest. This gym had become his second family. 4 years later and he is still excited to work out with Randy.
Honestly this place has been the catalyst for a lot of good into my life. Everyone here is truly dedicated to making your fitness goals become reality. The bootcamp classes are extremely fun and good for all levels. The personal training is top notch and has made me become a much stronger, fitter and well rounded athlete. And most importantly is that theres a real sense of community with all the members of the gym. Love this place and I would recommend it to anyone else whos trying to better themselves.
After being at various gyms in the area I was beginning to lose hope that I could ever actually enjoy stepping foot into a gym.... That is until Platinum Fitness! Randy and his team genuinely care about your goals and your well being and are always pushing you to do and be better and challenge your body as well as your mind. PF teaches you that hard work and perseverance actually do pay off and that you are always stronger than you believe! It is a no judgement atmosphere no matter what your skill level is and everyone is considered family :)
Great gym! Randy is super motivating. Never boring always a different workout to look forward to. Super clean & sanitized gym. Comfortable workout environment & enjoyable atmosphere.
Randy Lockwood is the most professional, inspiring and caring fitness trainer I’ve ever worked with. His routines vary with every workout. He previous chiropractic training allows him to work with wholisticly as well as on individual muscle groups and core exercises. The gym is absolutely spotless. The gym attendees are like family—it’s a place where “everyone knows your name”. You won’t find a better gym in Connecticut, and Putnam and Westchester.
Amazing equipment, workouts, and atmosphere. Really a second home.
Awesome coach but the gym is tiny (but they are moving to a larger space)
Great gym. A real family.
Amazing owner and staff, definitely recommend
