After moving to new house my treadmill stopped working, I called Boost Gym Service and Igor came the next day to repair it. He did everything super fast and professionally, explained how I can do maintenance by myself and gave useful tips. The price was fair. Thank you so much, will definitely use the service again. Highly recommend in Palisades Park!
Fast, professional, and fair pricing. They had my equipment back in action in no time. Highly recommend.
Arthur came and looked at my Treadmill found the issue, and said it needed maintenance, which I knew it did, I asked if he could do it, his office called me back with a total price. Arthur did the maintenance and showed me what he did, the Machine looked like new, he was very pleasant, and would certainly reach out to him again.
Arthur was fantastic. He arrived and let us know the problems we had with the treadmill and showed me each part that needed repair. In the end, we decided not to repair our treadmill, but it was a good experience working with this company.
Arthur K is very skilled, professional and courteous. Wonderful technician who represents the company well.
Arthur was super professional and friendly; was immediately able to pinpoint the issue and solution. Would definitely recommend!!
Braddock Park draws a crowd year-round, but most of 07010's serious cardio happens indoors — in the amenity gyms of those Palisades-edge towers or in spare bedrooms of the older three-families on Gorge Road. Ellipticals take a beating in both settings. A NordicTrack Commercial 14.9 running six days a week in a condo gym wears through its pedal arm bearings in half the time a home unit would. Squeaks, dead resistance, and wobbly strides are the calls we get most from Cliffside Park.
Most of the housing stock in 07010 falls into two categories: pre-1970 multi-family brick buildings along Palisade Avenue, and the newer high-rise towers cantilevered over the cliff edge with Hudson views. The older buildings weren't built for fitness rooms — converted storage units with low ceilings, poor ventilation, and concrete floors that transmit every vibration. Moisture from the Hudson-facing exposures accelerates corrosion on flywheel shafts and magnetic brake assemblies faster than most owners expect.
Common Elliptical Issues in Cliffside Park
Pedal Wobble from Corroded Axle Pins — Common in Cliff-Side Buildings
The salt-laden air off the Hudson works into linkage pivot points over a single winter. Precor EFX machines are especially susceptible — the aluminum pedal arm bushings oxidize and develop lateral play. Left alone, that wobble transfers stress to the main stride linkage and cracks the lower frame weld. Catching it at the bushing stage is a one-hour fix; waiting until the frame is involved is not.
Resistance Not Changing — Eddy Current Brake Failure on NordicTrack Units
The Commercial and FS series use an eddy current brake — a magnetic disc that adjusts resistance without physical contact. The electromagnet coil inside that unit fails when humidity spikes repeatedly, which happens constantly in Cliffside Park's basement and storage-level gym spaces. Resistance locks at one level, usually the lowest. Replacing the brake module takes about 90 minutes and restores full range.
Console Errors and Touchscreen Freezes on Peloton and Life Fitness Machines
Peloton's Bike+ and Row units aren't the only screens causing headaches — Life Fitness Elevation Series ellipticals in building amenity gyms throw E4 and E6 error codes when the console communication board loses connection to the drive motor controller. Vibration from heavy foot traffic in shared gym spaces loosens the ribbon cable harness. It looks like a software issue but it's almost always a physical connector.
