I met Dr. Irv through a friend of mine who totally transformed her health with his expertise. I had a hip replacement from a bad fall and I’ve struggled with tight hips, limited range of motion, bursitis and Arthritis. I turned 60 last fall and I knew if I was ever going to get better I had to go to someone that understood what I was dealing with. I knew I had the motivation, I just needed the right help. Irv was my answer. In my first assessment he knew quite quickly where I needed to work on my body to get my strength back and that range of motion I had been missing. I’m so happy to say I’m on my way and I feel 100% better because of what Irv has shown me for the right exercise, nutrition and complete wellness. I have found a new home for complete recovery at Steps and with Irv. I highly recommend to anyone who thinks their body will never be the same again to go here, see Irv and take your body and your life back!

I've been going to STEPs for about 10 years. It is the best thing I do for myself, the trainers are great, I'm the fittest I've ever been, and it is all tailored to my needs. Current trainer Darryl Casey is awesome and Irv Rubenstein (owner and trainer) is great. The trainers find whatever fits your needs (strength, cardio, balance, rehab, weight loss, etc). I really like that I get a balanced workout that incorporates all of those elements. I go either on my own or (mostly) together with my significant other (Duet package).
