About Body Blocks Fitness
In 1988, before personal training became popular, Bob Bateson created Body Blocks Fitness to provide the people of Western New York with an alternative to the overcrowded and underserviced ‘box’ gyms that were saturating the community market.
With a focus on providing quality training and fitness education in a clean and state-of-the-art environment, Body Blocks quickly established itself as the premier fitness club in Western New York. Body Blocks caters to a limited, exclusive membership which allows us to provide our clients with access to the latest fitness technologies, personalized attention, and offer benefits that simply can’t be found in traditional health clubs.
Body Blocks has recently expanded its services to include a number of rehabilitation and recovery modalities. We have also expanded our facility through a strategic partnership with the businesses and facilities at 500 Pearl. Body Blocks members now enjoy the use of the swimming pool and steam room, member discounts in bars and restaurants, as well as on hotel and conference rooms. The expansion also includes reserved parking for members in the parking ramp, located directly behind the building.
