See Inside the Swanky Gym Where George Soros Works Out (Plus Soros in Gym Shorts!)

You wouldn’t expect someone like billionaire philanthropist and currency speculator George Soros to work out just anywhere, would you?

Of course not! That’s why he — along with several other business heavyweights — is a member Sitaras Fitness, an exclusive downtown Manhattan gym.

Check Out the Swanky Gym Where Soros & Volker Work Out“Mr. Soros, the billionaire investor and philanthropist, was never one to have time for — or interest in — gyms,” writes Janet Morrisey of The New York Times, “But he was so impressed with the results that his son Alex, 26, got from Mr. Sitaras that he joined two years ago and now works out regularly.”

“My son benefited greatly — he lost a lot of weight,” Mr. Soros says. And despite being 81-years old, Soros actually works out about twice a week.

Check Out the Swanky Gym Where Soros & Volker Work Out“It makes me feel better, more alert,” Soros says. In fact, he was so impressed with his experience that he referred friends Paul Volcker, the former Federal Reserve chairman, and Sandra Navidi, founder and chief executive of the financial consulting firm BeyondGlobal.

Check Out the Swanky Gym Where Soros & Volker Work OutSitaras Fitness doesn’t charge an initiation fee, according to its website, but members must participate in at least two personal training sessions a week for $115 apiece and monthly fees run at $150 meaning total annual fees start at $13,760, according to Business Insider.

Check Out the Swanky Gym Where Soros & Volker Work OutAnd as mentioned above, it’s not just Soros who call Sitaras his personal gym; there are several big names working out there:

  • Charlie Rose:  “My appreciation of John Sitaras comes from hours and hours and hours of one on one training with him…He has changed my physical health and my appreciation of fitness and how to achieve it…”
  • Harvey Fuchs (Citigroup):  “The quality of my life has completely changed for the better by being a member of Sitaras Fitness for the past two years.”
  • Keith Rubenstein (Somerset Partners):  “Training at Sitaras Fitness has been a rewarding experience in all respects.”
  • Leonard Harlan (Castle Harlan): “The Sitaras fitness center is like none other in the world.”

Oh, and in case you were interested in joining, the gym has 56 spots left…but you’ll probably need a reference from someone like Volker or Soros.

      right on friend but maybe he is finally realizing that he is mortal and the years are dwindling away and no amount of money is going to save him from the inevitable so maybe this is a last ditch effort to prolong his miserable loathsome life.

    This guy should be in prison not working out in this “swanky gym.” The guy is wanted for insider trading in France, he has collapsed five nation’s economies and broke the Bank of England, he has created instigation in many nations to bring down their governments through his worldwide Open Borders organizations and buying up their media and sending his trained thugs to orchestrate demonstrations in the streets (OTPOR in Serbia to bring down the Milosevic Serbian government is a prime example).

    Open Borders hedgy hedgefund billionaire and global manipulator George Soros has put himself beyond the Law by having his blood money in every nation in the West to carry out his treacherous agenda of global tyranny over you.

    Why did he and his willing puppet Obama go into Libya to take out Gadhafi and replace him with the al Qaeda and use his Soros-funded Resposibility of Protect Doctrine (written by Cass Sunstein the Regulator’s wife Samantha Power) to do it? Because Soros has other designs for controlling a pipeline there and he can control things much better when there are terrorists causing all kinds of chaos who can be bought and paid for!

    George Soros has his dirty hands in the former Yugoslavia by providing financing to the KLA Albanian Muslim Mafia terrorist thugs in Kosovo and now he’s bought up the media and government in Serbia as well to cause chaos there! And, of course, he’s financing the OWS useful idiots here through his many insidious organizations. A

      Soros makes my blood boil more than the Obamas, Pelosi, Sharpton, Farakhan, Mulik Shabaz, Van Jones, and all the lefty loons and anarchists on both coasts.
      My only consolation concerning this cockroach is that one day soon, he too will pass away and have to face GOD.
      On that day, no amount of his money can help him. He will shake with an unknowable dread as he gives account to the Ultimate Judge. And that day, my friend, will be one terrible day.

    State of the art gym?! State of the art Bed Bath & Beyond, maybe. And if these people represent fitness, they should switch to some of my high school or college coaches. Pathetic. Look at Charlie Rose’s baggy eyes closely. That’s alcohol damage, people. No amount of fitness can turn that back now. Soros: pure evil living forever.

      At 53 I have similar baggy eyes and have never had alcohol in my life. Sometimes it is just genes. But that info wouldn’t let you be so judgemental would it.

    The reason that vile evil lizard Soros exists is because of people like those standing around him.
    They are stanidng next to a mass murderer, and they are mugging with him??? They are standing next to a person who has destroyed MANY childrens futures, what are they smiling for???? HIS wealth is ROBBED from nations, and these fools are mugging with him. Soros should be spat upon and ostracized by everyone.

    The Blaze calls him a PHILANTHROPIST. That is a MISNOMER. Soros is giving $$$$$$ to organization to SERVE his AGENDA. He is not handing money to an entity to use any which way they want…….that would be philanthropy. Soros gives $$$$$$ that he STOLE via sleight of hand only to MANIPULATE. This man should be OSTRACIZED BY THE WORLD.

      You are 200% correct. And, when our Nation fails and we have nothing left because of these freakin liberal, left wing, POS, Communist who voted for all of this, I will be the first to make sure they remember who, what, when and how they voted. I am NEVER going to forget the people who are destroying this Nation and all of our children’s futures.
