BEST GYM
Asphalt Green
Finding a place to exercise in
New York City can be challenging
sometimes, and after a year stuck
inside, we’re all tired of working
out in our small apartments.
Asphalt Green is the best gym in
the city because it has something
for everyone. The nonprofit gym
boasts world-class facilities and
its mission is to provide access to
sports and fitness opportunities
for all New Yorkers. Whether you
prefer to swim laps, want to get
involved in a sports league, like
a more calming workout such as
yoga, are only motivated to get
active in group classes or like to
grind out your miles on a treadmill,
Asphalt Green is the gym for you.

BEST NUTRITIONIST/
DIETICIAN
Compass Nutrition
Good nutrition is the cornerstone for
a healthy lifestyle. In this culture, it’s
sometimes difficult to maintain an
optimal diet that works to energize
the body and keep you at optimal
health. With so much conflicting
information out there, it can be enormously
helpful to have a professional
listen to you without any judgment
and offer a pathway to a healthier
diet. Compass Nutrition does exactly
that, either in person or through telehealth
appointments. Its nutritionists
offer compassionate expertise and
find fulfillment by helping others in
their journeys of nutritional health.
Compass Nutrition will motivate and
empower clients to make informed
decisions about their diets, learn
their own triggers and develop coping
mechanisms and tools to lead their
lives with a new, healthy mindset.
