If you're a busy dad of three like me, you know the fitness struggle is real. It's been a loooong time since my high school Track days, and trying to maintain a workout routine between kids and work was just not going to happen. I've lost track of the number of times I've said, "this is the time I'm going to stick with working out." I started going to Fitness Together last year and it's been exactly what I needed. No crowded gyms or waiting for machines. Expert trainers who handle all the thinking (and racking weights!) for me. Sessions on my calendar that keep me accountable. The trainers plan the workouts, track my progress, and actually make sure my form isn't awful. It's amazing how much easier it is to stick to a workout routine when all you have to do is show up and focus on picking heavy things up and putting them down. It's been the only way I've actually stayed consistent. If you've got fitness goals but zero time to waste, definitely check them out. Super glad I found this place. read more

"Fitness Together in Belmont has been life changing for me. Two years ago, I was living a pretty sedentary life, eating poorly and dealing with multiple chronic injuries due to lack of exercise. I decided to try Fitness Together and the experience has changed my life! Unlike other fitness places I had tried, this program is tailored to my specific needs on a daily basis. I work with trainers one-on-one and they have come up with a workout plan and a meal plan that fits my personal goals. The trainers at Fitness Together in Belmont are extremely knowledgeable, encouraging and friendly. If I have any physical discomfort when I arrive for my session, they alter the exercises to accommodate my needs. Coming from someone who has always hated to exercise, I actually like going there because I feel supported and cared about by the entire staff. After working with them for two years, I am 40 lbs lighter and feel physically better than I have in a decade. I am so grateful to this amazing team of people for helping me obtain a healthier lifestyle! " read more

Just a heads up, the call with Dan did not go well. It felt more like a focus on sales rather than finding a good fit. It's disappointing as your reviews online showed otherwise. Hoping this review helps them to review their sales process. read more

The team at Belmont Fitness Together is amazing. I am greeted by name by whoever is at the front desk when I walk in, and I know everyone that works there and they know me. Belmont FT puts the "personal" in personal training :-) I really don't recall a negative interaction or experience after a bit more than a year of regular workouts. Well, ok, actually the first few workouts were hard and a bit frustrating for me ... so brace yourself for a few days when things feel difficult. But so quickly the team helped me get over that hump, and now I look forward to workouts. No, really. Yep. I do. And in chatting with other clients, we all kind of feel the same. The team is strongly focused on safety ... and as a 60 year old I never quite realized how even the smallest mistake in how to perform a specific task could result in an injury (until I decided it was a good idea to push through a pain that my trainer said I should not ... and several months of PT later...). Since then, I now just say what hurts, and the trainers all know how to find an alternative that helps me progress without injury. I really had no idea how important this was to making sustained progress. The team is also focused on understanding your current state of reality. It turns out that I am not always at my best, and when I have a day where I am struggling (and maybe feeling like a slacker) my trainer knows how to modify and adjust. They also know me, so know to look at my face and heart rate rather than just listening to me convince myself I am fine! And from time to time I really am feeling great, and then we adjust as needed. It's really kind of amazing how tuned in all of the trainers are, and how consistently the staff manages my workouts to keep me on track, motivated, and moving forward. The Belmont crew is a well-oiled machine. Personal training isn't free, and when it's time to write the next check, I have consistently realized that the benefits I get from my visits are literally the best way I could spend the few extra dollars I have. I feel better about myself. I am dramatically healthier now, and can do things that are fun and energetic without feeling like an old man. And mentally, it's just better. I show up to my job feeling great, looking fit, being positive, and ready to work hard. In fact, having recently gotten a salary raise, I wonder how much of what I spend at Fitness Together just came back to me in spades! read more

Over one and a half years after my first session and in the midst of the pandemic, I've still found myself keeping (virtual) sessions with FT Belmont at the top of my priority list. FT Belmont has done a really good job transitioning to virtual sessions, and the trainers make it clear that they're putting in 110% to make sure you get the most out of the sessions - and this is true of *all* the trainers. Even though I've trained with every instructor at least once, I've had significant experience training with Dan, Manny, Markender, and Iva over a full year at least. They've been incredible in pushing me when appropriate, keeping an eye on form, and monitoring my own progress and using it to motivate me further. I can't emphasize enough the unwavering level of care each trainer puts into their sessions. If you're in the area and have some fitness goals you're ready to hit, I'd definitely give FT Belmont a shot! read more

If you're an athlete looking for specific strength gains you may have been struggling to achieve yourself, I'd say you can safely stop your search. As an avid boulderer (V5-6), gym goer, etc. I've always been decently fit. But I've had shoulder injuries, and the climbing wall was frankly telling me I had weaknesses in specific areas that I wasn't even sure how to fix. After 3 months at Belmont Fitness I'm more mind-muscle aware than I've ever been. They will 100% make sure your form is correct, will not let you get away with anything (exactly what I've always wanted in a workout) and will go alternative routes/exercises to ensure you use the proper muscles. All while being kind and knowledgeable. So if you've been stuck with a sports injury, or unsure how to get the most out of your workouts. This is the place! read more

I would highly recommend Fitness Together Belmont! The trainers there are all amazing and professional! I've mostly trained with Belinda and Manny, though I have also worked with others. They are beyond amazing! Belinda always knows how to push me and does not allow me to get away with anything. Manny is super patient and kind, but his workouts...they are kind in that they make my goals easier to achieve in the future. I've also had the opportunity to train with other members of the team as well. I have to say, the entire team always exude such positive energy, while pushing you during the workout! Not only that, they are very knowledgeable about the industry and are great at developing workouts to help you achieve your goals (you might cry a little while completing the workout, but it's worth it!!). They write new programs every month or two, so that the workouts are progressing as you do. And you will progress. I have gotten so much stronger since I have started, and that has allowed me to accomplish things that I wouldn't have a year or more ago. Again, highly recommend! read more

I have been training with Brian Knowles at Fitness Together for just over a year now. The routine he gives after the session to work on at home works great for me. I go to Brian not to lose weight, just to keep fit and healthy. Last week I climbed Mt. Washington, I honestly don't think I could have climbed if it wasn't for the workouts with Brian. Staff are very friendly, clean bright studio with state of the art equipment. I would highly recommend them, at least do yourself a favor and check them out. My wife also has been going to the studio and loves it. Forgot to mention we are both over 55. A very satisfied client. read more

I am one of those who is coming out of the recent pandemic not just in better shape than I went in, but my best in decades, thanks in large part to the excellent exercise routines developed by the trainers at Fitness Together Belmont. Not only do they custom develop them to fit your goals and schedule, they package it with nutrition advice, and regular assessments to make sure you are making progress. Best of all, all the trainers are fantastic, supportive, adaptable to your style, and all around wonderful people. They also take care to make sure what your are doing is safe and effective, whether in person or virtually (which I did a lot of during the pandemic). If solo training isn't your style, they have small group options. You can't go wrong with giving them a try. read more

I've always been intimidated by the thought of going to a gym and trying to figure out a fitness routine, so I'm glad I found Fitness Together in Belmont. All of the trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, and have made me feel really comfortable as a newbie. I've done a mix of small group classes and one on one sessions and all of the them have been phenomenal. read more

I have been at this health and fitness thing for a long time, but I have never enjoyed it as much as I have this Fall/Winter. (Who would have thunk that I would put "fitness" and "enjoy" in the same sentence, ever!) The personal and multi-facet approach at FT makes a huge difference in my motivation and progress. The fitness assessment and re-assessments are great for setting and tweaking goals as well as measuring progress. This is especially helpful at the end of a long work day when the (other) PJs are calling. I now want to go work out because I know that it is changing my body in ways I could not achieve on my own. You should see my latest plank record !-) I have always been a healthy eater, but the coaching, menu guidance, and check ins have made such a positive impact on my energy level (not to mention the changing dress size~). Oh, and did I mention the emerging muscles from this improved meal planning? Of course my favorite aspect of FT is the trainers. They are very attentive to correct form and leveling up to maximize the impact of the workouts. They are sincere and motivating during accountability check ins. Each of them have their unique ways of encouraging and challenging us such that you want to work hard and step up (no pun intended) and be successful. Those 45 minute just fly by every time. I love that the atmosphere is friendly and not competitive. I love that my workouts are varied and interesting. I love that I get results. It is truly a great gift to give yourself or anyone else! read more

I've tried everything to stay in shape, over the years. I took up jogging, but never got into it. I tried going to the gym, but quickly got bored. The swimming pool never warmed up enough for me, either. The yoga studio was too hot and stinky. I tried following pre-recorded fitness sessions of all sorts online, but didn't have the discipline to push as hard as was needed for results. I then tried a free pack class at Fitness Together in Belmont and saw what I've been missing all these years! There were two other people in that class and the trainer knew the appropriate weights for each person as well as what exercises didn't work for them and needed to be adjusted. We got personalized attention, plenty of specific advice how to do the exercises in a way that is helpful but also not damaging. And I also got someone to encourage me to keep at it if I started slacking off. I've been going twice a week for a year and a half now and have enjoyed both the in-person training and virtual pack sessions on Zoom, which I found just as good as the in-person ones. Every 6 months I've been adding 5 Lbs. to my dumbbells and I feel in better shape than I've been in years! If you feel like you're sliding into couch-potato territory and nothing can get you to exercise regularly, I highly recommend trying a class at Fitness Together! At least for me, nothing else compares. read more

Fitness Together Belmont is amazing!! The trainers are wonderful. Every single one is kind, encouraging, extremely knowledgeable and an absolute joy to work with and learn from. I have been going to FT Belmont for over a year and have become much stronger and more fit than I even thought was possible :) The trainers really pay attention to detail and they tailor your fitness plan to meet your needs and reach your goals - everything from strength training, cardio, nutrition/meal planning, flexibility, injury prevention and much more!! Their guidance on these topics is really fantastic and they are very invested in improving your overall health. From the first time I walked into the fitness studio, I've felt like I'm in very good hands. The training sessions are always fun, challenging and motivating. If you are looking to improve your overall fitness, I very strongly recommend going to Fitness Together Belmont!! You'll love it!! read more

I highly recommend FT-Belmont! They are knowledgeable, thorough, caring, committed...the list goes on and on. Maddy has been my personal trainer for about a year and I can't say enough about her! She is so good! I can tell that she really cares and she works with me to find the right exercises that works for me (I have some special needs due to a medical condition). read more

How many fitness centers have you tried whose advertising says something like "try us if you are really serious about getting fit"? And then you find the same set of machines, the same treadmills and ellipticals, even the same damn music playing? And lackluster personal fitness instruction available only for an additional fee? That and some slapdash nutrition counseling, and you're left on your own. How long do you think you can push yourself to show up and do the work? Can you really muster that kind of willpower? As a 50+ couch potato by nature, I'm telling you right now that I DON'T have that kind of willpower. But check it out: I'm hitting the gym several times a week, getting decent cardio, gradually losing weight. How? Enter Fitness Together. The "Together" part is the key...you are effectively hiring a set of extremely knowledgeable, driven professionals to push you to success. Together you agree on a fitness regime that suits your schedule and budget. Together you work one-on-one to learn how to work out effectively without hurting yourself. Together you look at your diet and learn how to improve it. And then you are pushed (gently but firmly) to get to the studio, get that cardio done, try a little extra weight, monitor your intake. And you do it. Maybe it's because not showing up wastes your money. Maybe it's because you know that someone expects you to show up and not waste their time. Maybe it's so the periodic fitness assessments they provide are better each time. Whatever...it really works. So which FT to try? The FT in Waverly Square in Belmont MA is exemplary. Their trainers are consummate professionals, who obviously enjoy their clients, genuinely wish them success, and work with diligence and intelligence to help clients make progress. Each exercise is clearly explained: what it's for, on which muscle groups you should concentrate, what not to do. And your program is carefully personalized to push you quite hard, but with an understanding and respect for your limits and great consideration of any injuries, aches, or pains you need to work around. In addition to personal training, this FT also offers group ("pack") sessions where clients work together to succeed. These are quite challenging, but are not designed to be competitions...instead, you work as hard as you can and encourage your colleagues to do the same. Note that this all comes at a price...this is not a $10/month sweat shop. But I consider this an investment in my future. I want to retain my health and well-being for as much as possible of the time I am given on this planet. And I wish the same for you! So do give Fitness Together in Waverly Square a try. read more

For my new year's resolution, I made the firm commitment to become healthier and part of that decision was joining a gym that would help me reach my goal. Upon thorough research and multiple recommendations, I came across Fitness Together in Belmont. Joining this fitness studio was the best decision I ever made. The staff is amazing, the small group classes and 1:1 training is spectacular. I feel very supported, and when life seemed too busy to commit to my scheduled class, I received gentle encouragement to persevere. Seven months later, I surpassed my fitness goal and feel strong, lean, confident and healthier than ever and even made friends along the way. I have no end date in site and plan to remain a part of this great community. read more

Personal training is an expensive service, but Fitness Together of Belmont is worth every penny. The entire staff knows your name, provides encouragement, and holds you accountable. Your workouts are individualized and updated regularly to fit your specific ability and needs. Beyond the workouts, they provide excellent nutrition counseling and support to enable you to fulfill your fitness goals. PJ, Paula, Joe, Brian, Meghan, and Colin are a great group! P.S. I was impressed to learn that FT of Belmont not only trains adults, but they have also customized their services to children and teens, as well as people with physical limitations. read more

My wife and I moved back to Belmont from SF a couple of years ago and quickly fell off the exercise wagon. Fitness together has helped us the most with developing a routine that we have learned to love. Now, when we happen to be away for a couple of days and can't make it to the gym, it feels wrong! My wife really enjoys the small group training. She feels really comfortable with the focus on women's training they are able to do. I have mostly stuck with the personal training or one on one sessions with a focus on strength training and they have really worked well for me. I have learned to stop focusing on just the # of LBS and focus on how I feel. Even though I am doing that, I have achieved significant weight loss, but more importantly dropped the BF%. I have learned to track my food and what realistic goals are and how to attain them. As cliche as it might sound, my wife and I feel like part of the family. We enjoy coming and seeing all the trainers at the gym and have built a great rapport with all of them. Also, I am seriously a fan of PJ the DJ's mixes (the owner). This guy seriously has a future in the Boston club scene if he ever decides to do something else (which I hope never happens!) read more

Fitness Together Belmont is so magnificent that I love them like family...seriously! The group of personal trainers are tough but warm. Their goal is your goal...to get you fit and healthy. It's not just about muscle, but diet and they make it easy. My son was born with a disease that causes muscle tightness and cramping/knots. It got hard for him to walk much less exercise and he gained a great deal of weight. He's been at Fitness together for the last 6 years and is so strong and healthy...a black diamond skier, a runner and just an all around great kid...and I owe it all to Fitness together. Full Disclosure...when I get to lax with the diet and exercise, I throw myself in for a 3 month boot camp and get it all back in shape. I WOULDN'T GO ANYWHERE ELSE AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU! Anne Mahon, Belmont Resident Google me if you have more questions.... ;-) read more

I absolutely love Fitness Together in Belmont. From the people to the concept, I'm a believer. The staff is professional, certified and caring, and their methodologies are sound and provide results. I've been a client for years and have seen great results including weight loss, strength and flexibility. Thank you to PJ, Paula, Brian and the entire staff - you guys rock! read more

I joined Fitness Together about 2 months ago, with the goal of gaining strength and toning (and just in general feeling better about myself!). I appreciated my first consultation with Paula, who really listened to my answers to her questions, and took good notes. I really felt like she wasn't just trying to sell -- or upsell -- something to me. All the trainers are great. Unlike at some gyms, these folks all seem to know what they're doing. I'm of a certain age, and wanted the personal training so as not to hurt myself. All the trainers understand anatomy, and know how to work with a variety of ages and infirmities. In fact, shortly after joining I was diagnosed with a tendinitis in my wrist, and they are working with me now to make sure that I can still get good workouts, without further injuring myself. They are very well trained. FT is not an inexpensive proposition, but I truly believe that in this case I am really getting what I pay for, and it has been worth every penny! read more

The trainers push you to work hard but never at the expense of your well-being. They always check your form, ask how you are doing, and help you address any aches or pains. They have helped me work hard to meet my goals, but never assumed what they were: they really want to hear from you what YOU need out of a fitness plan, and they'll help you get there. read more

I suspect that at least some of you looking for a personal trainer share my story. You used to be in passable shape, but as the years tick by and life gets more complicated, you find there is less time and energy to devote to your well-being. The weight creeps on slowly and becomes the new normal. You try diets and gyms in fits and starts, but nothing seems to stick, except for the extra pounds. It's ok, you rationalize, I'm not that overweight, besides, these things just happen with age. Nope. At Fitness Together they disabuse you of such false notions. Their fitness instructors are well trained and gave me the tools I needed, through both nutrition and fitness instruction, to attain my goals. To my surprise, I found that the true benefits of their training involve a lifestyle change that, once it became habit, set me on a healthier life path. I can unequivocally say that Fitness Together changed my life for the better, and they have my heartfelt thanks. Seriously, thank you all! As for advice, just let them help you. While all the trainers are great, find the one that provides the right mix of motivation and accountability for you (a special shout out to Meghann, who always smiled as she made me run up flights of stairs). Take the instruction seriously, stick with the workout and nutritional plans, and you will see results! read more

Let me begin by saying that the Belmont branch of Fitness Together is fantastic. So far I've signed up on two separate occasions for training, and have never been disappointed. That being said, my most recent time at Fitness Together was life changing. I got wind of a promotional deal Fitness Together was offering - lose 20 pounds in 6 weeks. The offer included 4 pack (group, between 2-4 people) training sessions per week, with supplementary fitness assessments and dietary/nutrition counseling. The prize? If you lost the 20 pounds within the given time, all of the training and counseling were free, and you'd be fully reimbursed. I figured since my gym routine had fallen by the wayside in the last year, I might as well take a leap and try to kick-start my fitness. And boy, did I ever. I can't praise the staff of Fitness Together enough for all the help and knowledge they provided me. I started the challenge at a weight of 168.8 lbs, and finished (just today!) at 148.4 lbs (dropping from ~24% body fat to 15%!). Never have I ever been worked so hard than during the pack sessions. Every trainer was kind, approachable, and genuinely cared about my fitness goals. The sessions were held often and easily accommodated my schedule, and the facilities had great hours that allowed me to frequently visit and sneak in some extra cardio on their elliptical and tread-mills. As the weeks progressed, I started noticing significant transformations in my cardiovascular health. Keep in mind, the nature of this challenge I was on included a very rigorous diet and exercise regiment (set calorie limit, 5 meals a day, specific macro nutrient percentages, etc..). The workouts, with an emphasis on high intensity interval training, had a quick effect on my fitness - I noticed I lost around 3 pounds a week. This quickly translated into better fitting clothes, higher levels of energy and a general sense of confidence and well-being. With nutritional advice from Fitness Together I cut out all processed sugars, real or fake, and was taken aback at how many health benefits I reaped! I closely followed dietary advice and ate a mostly gluten-free diet, and found that within the 6 weeks of the challenge I experienced little to no stomachaches of any kind (which in my book is a big deal). The satisfaction of the little things - like fitting into old clothes, needing a tighter notch on your belt, being less winded from climbing the stairs - it all added up to an immense sense of pride and accomplishment. With all that said, my time at Fitness Together in the last six weeks has been incredibly formative. I was pushed harder than ever before, and can honestly say that with the help of the Belmont crew I accomplished the most significant health change in my life. For my final session today (which included a weigh-in that would determine if I had met the 20 lb goal), I walked into the studio with no regrets - whether or not I met the 20 lb challenge weight was less important than the knowledge and accomplishments I have gained from my time at Fitness Together. I want to give a special thanks to PJ, Shane, Paul, Sarah, Paula and Brian for all their help, time and consideration. As big of an achievement as this was, I'm not done. And if you're looking to really, truly pursue your fitness goals, I can't recommend Fitness Together Belmont enough. read more

As someone who needs to be pushed to get to the gym, I can't say enough good things about my training at this facility. The staff is very professional, knowledgeable and it's fun to workout with them, which is a huge plus for me. I feel much better about the way I look and feel. Training has also helped to improve my golf game! read more

Ive been a client at fitness together for about 6 months, and have been meaning to sit down and write this glowing review for some time now- however, it took me so long to do it because it has been near impossible to put into words the incredible experience I've had with this amazing group of trainers. A little background on me- I'm a 30 year old workaholic who had hit a wall with holding myself accountable for my diet and exercise. The usual quick tricks had stopped working, and I needed a big change. I met PJ and Paula at a health fair at my job, and signed up for a free consult (while talking with them about the consult, I found it very refreshing that their pitch was "we can let you know some options, and if you decide not to go with our training, we'd be happy to give you some free good advice!") It sounded like a win-win! And it ended up being so much more than that- I signed up for a series of one-on-one sessions (I went 3-4 times a week), and their flexible available times was essential to my busy schedule! These sessions included nutrition sessions- a one-to-one sit down to educate you on what, when, and how to eat right for weight loss and optimal nutrition. This was so different than all the "diet hype" programs, because I honestly felt like I was eating consistently, not ending up hungry, and still losing weight! I'm so thankful for a program that tells you to eat instead of telling you not to! The actual one-on-one training sessions were some of the most fun and challenging 45-minute blocks of my life... every trainer here makes you feel like they are invested in you and your results, while pushing you to try things you never would on your own, and honestly making it feel like your working out with a friend who wants you to be the best version of you! I found myself telling my friends and family about what a great time I had (with Paula, Shane, Caitlin, PJ, Paul, and Brian), how sore I was (which is a good thing!), and how much fun I had everytime. The results were amazing- I stuck to the program, and have to date lost about 25-30 lbs. And what I loved about this transformation is that while you enter most fitness programs looking to "get skinnier", I left getting strong and confident (and yea, skinnier too!). I can add running, boxing, and ab workouts to a new list of things I love! This was the best investment I've ever made in myself, and if youre looking to do the same, you should 100% do it here. I could never thank these guys enough :-) read more

I've been going to Fitness Together in Belmont for six months. I've been thrilled with the place since the beginning but wanted to wait a few months before writing my review. I can now say that this is the best decision I've made in a very long time. It is a great place to go to, no judgment, no embarrassment, no torture. The trainers here genuinely care about your health and you becoming stronger and raising your fitness level. You are in competition with no one but yourself. I love the privacy of the individual rooms. Let me talk a bit about the magic that the owner (and awesome trainer) PJ uses to make this place so ideal - it's the trainers. Each and every one of them is a great trainer but it goes much beyond that. They have great qualities that make you look forward to coming in and being motivated to do your best. I absolutely look forward to my work out sessions. I can come in at the end of a long day, dragging a bit and then I workout and leave like a new person. I never realized how important it is to have a trainer guide you in your fitness, but it definitely is worth it. My fitness level has really gone up and I am much stronger, am better with my balance and flexibility and just feel better overall. And you know, I actually kind of like squats now. I already mentioned PJ - he's an incredibly knowledgeable and patient trainer, and I always learn something new when I work with him. My 'regular' trainer is Brian, the assistant manager, and he is wonderful. He is supportive and always full of great advice on my workouts and my nutrition. I have worked out with all of the trainers and each has his/her own style; while the workouts are written in advance for you (customized exactly for you) the session can be slightly different depending on who you work with that specific day. Paula is the manager and a real sweetheart. Working out with her is fun, she pushes me and supports me both. The head trainer is Paul - probably the biggest cheerleader there. I probably laugh the most when I work out with him. Suzanne is the one I like working out with when I really need to work on my flexibility; I always get great tips on stretching. Shane is the one who always gets me pushing myself to the limit with the weights. I have grown to love the feeling of lifting until I can't do a pound more. And Caitlin is wonderfully supportive and inspiring, as someone who started as a client. When you start you get a fitness assessment. At first I really dreaded it, I mean really, who wants to be measured and weighed? It is done so matter of factly with no muss, no fuss ... and then you set a personal goal. Six weeks or so later, you get assessed again. It's great to see your progress and know where you stand. As I mentioned before, there are individual workout rooms with just you and your trainer, so it's private. That said, the atmosphere is a very friendly one and you get to know others who work out. Everyone is nice, everyone is there for their own health and no one judges anyone else. I have not yet done the pack sessions (with several people) but will probably be trying it. I strongly recommend going to Fitness Together at Belmont, getting an assessment and changing your life for the better. You will be so happy that you made this change. I was someone who was doing cardio 7 days a week but didn't really know how to do strength training. The nutrition advice is really helpful too. I had been to a nutritionist before and the different here is that you talk about specifics with your trainer during the Nutrition Training (I think that's what it's called). So you get guideline numbers customized for you with regard to how many fat, carb and protein grams you should be eating for each meal and overall for the day. This was extremely helpful info. read more

I'm a long-time Fitness Together - Belmont client and consider the cost an investment in my health. Here's why: Weight loss - I've lost 45 pounds as an FT - Belmont member and most importantly I've kept it off for almost 2 years. This is the first time in my life that I have been able to maintain a significant weight loss for more than 6 or 8 months. Running - never been a runner, never been an athlete. Because of the support I receive from the FT- Belmont trainers, I am now a runner. I did my first 5k in June 2012 with FT and have done 12 more since. And the Tufts 10k - completed it in 2012 and 2013. So, ya, I'm a runner! Yoga - FT - Belmont doesn't teach yoga. But a couple of the FT trainers were worried that I wasn't doing enough post-run stretching, resulting in a loss of flexibility and knee soreness, and recommended yoga. So now I'm incorporating yoga (at a yoga studio) into my schedule and can really feel the difference. I love that the FT trainers make recommendations that help me and my overall health! I do the Pack Training 3x a week and have a blast! The Trainers are knowledgeable and know when and how to challenge me. When the little voice in my head tells me that something is too hard or that I am too tired the Trainer's voice is the one I listen to and keep on working. The Trainers can modify exercises to make them a bit easier or more challenging based on the individual needs of the clients - this is not a cookie-cutter kind of a workout! The atmosphere of the club is very supportive - the Trainers support the clients, the clients support the Trainers when they are training for marathons and the clients support each other. Such a great place to work-out! read more

I have been training here for over a year now and am really satisfied. I generally do two packs per week plus cardio on my own. All the trainers have great personalities and know how to motivate as well as ensure proper technique. The packs are a great bargain and a good way to build camaraderie with others in the gym. I have lost about twenty pounds and several inches and feel much better overall. read more

I am a huge fan of Fitness Together Belmont and their incredible staff. This spring I did the Great Jeans Challenge and had impressive results. Over the eight week challenge I worked out at Fitness Together three times a week doing the small group Packs. The trainers encouraged me to incorporate cardio, monitoring my progress along the way. At the end of eight weeks I lost 15 pounds! I lost three inches off my waist and two off both my hips and bust. The results speak for themselves-- and I fully credit the supportive trainers who maximize every minute for results. The atmosphere is wonderful and supportive. The other clients are delightful. The staff at Fitness Together are truly great people and I can not say enough about what a difference this place has made in my life. People join gyms for all different reasons. When you are ready to make a substantive change and improve your health and get in shape for real-- this is the place to go. read more

I started at Fitness Together about 18 months ago with the primary goal of adding strength training to my fitness routine and gaining some needed confidence when I was at the gym on my own. I was pretty hesitant to start but I knew I needed help to change up my routine--I'm a self-admitted cardio junkie and needed to learn some ways to get stronger. I have been able to attain my primary goals plus a lot more! The personal trainers at Fitness Together Belmont are amazing--knowledgeable, warm, caring, and personable with great senses of humor! I am always greeted warmly when I walk into the studio and feel like I've just arrived at a friend's home. The trainers instantly make you feel comfortable in your workout but always push you when they (and you sometimes) know you can do more. I walk out of my workouts always feeling proud of what I've accomplished. I cannot thank the trainers enough for their encouragement and patience when guiding me through the workouts they have put together for my specific needs and goals. I am so glad that I came to Fitness Together Belmont in 2014. I have gotten stronger and leaner but most importantly much more confident about my ability to work out independently at the gym. I cannot recommend Fitness Together more if you are new to working out or simply want to change up a stale routine. PJ and his team will definitely help you to attain your goals! read more

Fitness Together of Belmont has been a wonderful experience for my teenage daughter (age 15). She wanted to improve her strength for cheerleading tryouts and knew she needed the accountability of a personal trainer. Everyone she's worked with at FT has been fantastic - she's trained with almost everyone on staff at some point and likes and feels comfortable with all of them. Her strength improved significantly and the work paid off - she just made the varsity cheerleading squad. FT has a very warm and comfortable vibe - not loud and aggressive like a gym - that was important for my daughter. She has also benefited greatly from nutrition consulting sessions - as a vegetarian, she finds it challenging to eat enough protein and Sarah gave her many excellent suggestions that we hadn't thought of. I liked that the nutrition recommendations focused on eating real, whole foods with no supplements or protein powders. I highly recommend FT! read more

I am a retired senior who luckily discovered Fitness Together Belmont 10 years ago.

And just as importantly, I have benefited from ongoing relationships with a number of knowledgeable and caring staff and fellow clients. I intend to continue aging gracefully by my ongoing FT membership. read more

I joined Fitness Together Belmont over 4 months ago with a goal of loosing weight. I am so glad I made the right choice! PJ, Paula, Joe, Sarah, Shane, Brian and Carly are an excellent team together and work really hard to keep their clients happy and satisfied. All the trainers are knowledgable, enthusiastic, positive and affectionate. The best thing about FT Belmont is their personalized attention to each of their client needs and goals. The team not only focuses on cardio and strength training but have a holistic approach towards your health and fitness. They give you the flexibility as well as hold you accountable for your training too. You definitely feel welcomed at the studio and all the trainers are very nice.

They will not disappoint you at all! I am very thankful to the team for helping me to achieve my goals. read more

I started at FT in Belmont about a year and half ago, when I realized I needed some accountability to get back to working out. One of my favorite things was the nutrition sessions that they do with you when you start - I learned a lot, and still use tips that I got from those sessions. The community is great amongst the trainers and clients, the trainers seem to genuinely enjoy their work and desire to see clients succeed. I loved going to pack sessions and getting to know different people, other gyms feel "anonymous" and I really wanted accountability. It is a financial commitment, but when I looked at the other things I spend money on, it seemed like a good investment. I'm no longer close enough to Belmont to work out there regularly, but I highly recommend it to anyone! read more
