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!!
Rutgers housing and off-campus apartments along French Street run older NordicTrack and ProForm ellipticals hard — five residents sharing one machine means the pedal cranks and stride linkage take abuse that a home unit wasn't built for. Humidity off the Raritan River doesn't help either. Flywheel bearings corrode, drive belts stiffen, and suddenly the machine sounds like a shopping cart with a broken wheel.
The 08901 zip covers a dense mix of pre-1960s apartment buildings and student rentals near the train station where basements stay damp from October through March. Older homes in the Joyce Kilmer neighborhood — many built in the 1940s — have circuit panels that struggle with the 15-amp draw of a motorized elliptical. Units in Livingston Apartments complex run commercial-cycle hours on residential equipment, burning through resistance modules twice as fast as normal.
Common Elliptical Issues in New Brunswick
Flywheel Bearing Corrosion in Damp Basement Units
Basements along Redmond Street and near the Raritan Canal trail hold moisture year-round. That moisture gets into the flywheel bearing housing on ProForm and NordicTrack ellipticals, causing a grinding squeal at the start of each stride. Replacing the sealed cartridge bearings stops the noise — ignoring it means the flywheel itself eventually scores and costs three times more to fix.
Resistance Not Changing — Eddy Brake Coil Failure
Sole and Schwinn ellipticals in apartment gym setups see this constantly. The magnetic resistance system uses an eddy current brake coil controlled by the console. Voltage fluctuations in older 08901 buildings with aging wiring degrade the coil over time. You press the resistance button and nothing happens — or it jumps from 3 to 12 with no steps in between.
Pedal Wobble From Worn Stride Linkage Bushings
High foot traffic on shared equipment — common in the apartment complexes around Albany Street — wears out the pivot bushings in the stride linkage arms faster than any manufacturer schedules for. Life Fitness and Precor units feel it first in the lateral wobble of the footpad. A bushing replacement kit and a torque check on the crank bolts usually puts it right.
