The new facility is positioned strategically within one of the region's most popular shopping destinations, promising to bring a rich array of fitness offerings to the Albany community.

A Growing Demand for Fitness in Albany

We are so excited to bring the Crunch Fitness experience to the Crossgates Mall and fill the fitness gap."

A Legacy of Fitness and Fun

Founded in 1989, Crunch Fitness has evolved from a small gym in New York City's Greenwich Village to a prominent name in the fitness industry, known for fusing fitness and entertainment to create fun, engaging workout environments.
