Bashar Fitness, New York

I expected this to provide a good stretching of muscles and instruction for further conditioning and preparation for exercising without injury. I was asked by Bashar why I was there and after stating this I was told I didn't know why I was there. He informed me that his sessions were for people in shape. Apparently he wants to set up people for personal training at a ridiculous cost. He gave me a good stretching and we called it a day. I can do further training and conditioning in my neighborhood gym for a much lower fee.

Bashar delivers results after just 1 hour. However, Bashar's professionalism is non-existent. In fact, he talks like he's a street thug. From the first moment I walked in the door, he spoke to me as if we're in an argument, he's loud and insulting and constantly accused me of disobeying him. This is NOT Soviet russian in the 1980s and this attitude will not fly in the world of business! He literally tests your patience, constantly makes snide remarks, and makes jokes and worst of all laughs at his own jokes. Then I saw him in the corner smoking - either weed or pot - well I don't know because I don't smoke but he was definately on something. I'm not here to deal with other's outbursts and emotional issues.

The 60 minute power stretch was phenomenal. Bashar is definitely a pro at what he do. Highly recommended.

When Bashar puts his hands on you he is a magician and make all the pain and stiffness vanish , I can’t wait to go back for a stretching and flexibility tune up.
