The results are in and RowZone was named the best workout place in the Roxborough-Manayunk area in last week's Best of Patch poll.
RowZone received 56 percent of the vote and edged out Goals Fitness, which also had a strong showing.
In the comments, owner John Belanger said, "RowZone Manayunk is an awesome training facility. We have great instructors that are either college rowers, high school or college coaches that have rowed at the 'elite' level. As a former rower and Ironman Triathlete, we focus on developing all levels fitness. Check us out, we have an absolutely awesome coaching staff and dedicated clients. We are on Facebook, Yelp, Foursquare."
On Yelp, one user wrote of the Main Street facility: "My husband and I love RowZone. While we have different athletic abilities and strengths, this is the first work out we can do together and both feel like we have been challenged and pushed to our limits."
Check back Monday for this week's poll, the best wings.

You get an incredible workout at RowZone. Instructors are amazing and pay attention to your form. Constantly challenge you to push to another level. I've been going there for two years, totally strengthened my core and overall strength abilities. Very interested and caring owners as well.
