hi. This is my first post on this forum. What is the best boxing gym on long island, new york? I've trained at gleasons before, but i dont feel like driving all the way to brooklyn, and the parking is expensive. Where is the best place on long island to train? Freeport PAL? Eddie Haffer? I need to know. Thanks.

Check that out .. I am from LI also .. bout to start training soon . havent ever gone to a GYM like that but I go to a regualr gym and hit the bags.. I am trying to find a good place but if you know of one definatly let me know I am interested .. I am in Nassau by the way

i used metroboxing.org, and i called freeport PAL and Glen Cove Boxing Club, it seems like Glen Cove is more expensive, but more full-service than Freeport PAL, although i have heard great things about Freeport PAL in terms of how the boxers do in competition and how the training and instruction is. The Director of the gym was very honest and helpful to me. But I am going to visit Glen Cove today, because Freeport PAL is only open in the evenings and on saturdays, while Glen Cove is open practically all the time. And they have gym access with a lot of cool stuff and private training available. I'll keep you posted to see if it really is a good gym. Thank you for responding.

Hey Sugar Have you ever been to that gym before? or you have heard of it .. I also have heard of it I used to work down the block from it soo Maybe I will go check it out.. Couple of others on the island that seem pretty decent too..

 

[Captainobvious]

Go wherever you'll get the best training and instruction. Sometimes a PAL organization is far better than the "real gym" in a particular area. All depends on willing, knowledgable, and supportive trainers and stables.

[The Jab]

i've been away from boxing for a while. which is cheaper, eddie haefer or Huntington? I'm looking for a lot of personal attention, but I can't spend too much. Which of the two would be better for me?:dunno:

 

[SugarShanep4p]

oh if you want personal attention academy of boxing is the way to go, I seriously dont think you can get better training on LI, and im being compleatly serious, its a fantastic place, just dont get thrown by its size, thats what turns most people off haha.

 

[S2X]

Nice nice .. I still havent Joined a BOXING gym .. I go to a regualar gym 4-5 times per week usually .. but I am going to get too one of them .. I will check probably 3 out total .. and once I am ready to go I will pick the right one .. sometime after softball season is over I will do it

 

[The Jab]

I have finally decided to return to Gleasons in Brooklyn. There is no substitute for the most famous gym in the world.

I am still doing martial arts though, as part of my conditioning for the boxing.

I been training with a great group of guys down at The Heavy Hitters Boxing Gym, for some reason they have alot of trainers with alot of experience down there. Jerry Capobianco, Ralphie Delgado, Bill G, Jason Morales, Mike Vargas, Ray Berke, and the owner is a 2 Time Golden Glove Champion Kristian Vasquez also a great guy he goes out of his way to make sure everybody down there feels like family. If your looking for some great training and a team behind you then Heavy Hitters Boxing Gym is most likely your best bet. There address is listed on there website.
