Coaches are great people and will get you fit. Don't need to be in shape to join. I've been here 5 years and love it, I'm in the best shape of my life and have a blast working out with the JPCF community. read more

JP Crossfit is one of the most welcoming Crossfit communities I have ever come across. The outdoor weekend community classes have kept me sane throughout the pandemic. The coaches are incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. The programming is challenging but isn't too intense. The people and dogs make the workouts so much more fun. read more

Coming up on almost five months since I started at JP CrossFit and I love it! The coaches are great - they're supportive regardless of your fitness levels and strengths/weaknesses, and knowledgeable/attentive enough to help you set individualized goals and then reach them. The coaches really love what they do and love the community and it shows. Also - the community itself is amazing. Since I've started, everyone has been incredibly friendly, welcoming, and supportive - I can't say enough good things. There are plenty of community events, too, like the Quidditch Cup (athletes are divided into houses and get points for achieving goals, firsts, attendance, etc.) and the CrossFit Open that everyone comes together on, which are a ton of fun. In addition to the training received from coaches, I've gotten tons of useful tips and advice from other athletes as well. People gather around to root for and cheer on people who are finishing a workout or going for a PR, but it's always an atmosphere of encouragement, and not someone screaming at you to get back on the bar. The workouts/WODs themselves are highly challenging, and they can be scaled to whatever you can do, while still pushing yourself. I lifted weights on my own in my basement for several years and I always struggled with forcing myself to program/do things I was bad at or didn't like (or any cardio whatsoever). Since I've started here, I've not only gotten stronger at my lifts, but am in better shape than I've ever been, and I've really found the drive to try to train my weaknesses to become a more rounded athlete. There's an online whiteboard/leaderboard which you can use to track your progress and which also really helps give you a sense of other people's strengths and also their progress, which is cool! The facility is well equipped and clean and has two single-stall bathrooms with showers, which is really convenient. There are lockers you can rent, though they are semi-limited, and there's a space for people to leave their shoes and jump ropes as well, if you have lifting shoes or a personal jump rope, etc. If you've ever been curious about CrossFit, I highly recommend doing at least the free trial and seeing if you like it! There's also a "Community" class for $5 that is open to the public on Saturdays and Sundays! I was really nervous about CrossFit being "too intense" and too hyper competitive, and while the workouts *are* definitely intense, it's been a fantastic experience. read more

JP CrossFit - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts

I am really thankful that I joined JP CrossFit last July and the coaches there got me into the best shape of my post-college life. The coaching staff offers beginners like myself a great introduction to CrossFit. Lots of teaching moments and they lead really enjoyable classes. My biggest concern when I joined was that I would get injured doing CrossFit but I always felt safe under their watchful eyes. Thank you JP CrossFit! read more

JP CrossFit is great. The facility is clean, the instructors are knowledgeable, the atmosphere is friendly, and the workouts are brutal. The price ($180/month) is on par with a gym membership plus regular personal training, which is (unfortunately) simply more than I can afford, so I attend their $5 "community classes" on Saturdays while going to a conventional gym for the rest of the week. Despite this, I never feel like a second-class citizen, and the staff are more than happy to answer questions, give scaling advice, and offer technique critique. The classes work me harder than anything I could do on my own, and they've become of a centerpiece of my journey into fitness (37 lbs lost and counting). What is most impressive, though, is the extent to which JP CrossFit is genuinely interested in building community, and not merely by offering discounted Saturday classes to folks who live in the neighborhood - they also hold potlucks, celebrate members' successes (in person and on social media), support other local businesses, and more. It's worth mentioning that JP CrossFit seems to attract a high caliber of athlete, and although the staff are more than willing to help you scale the workouts to your fitness level, consistently finishing at the end of the group while everyone watches takes some getting used to. If you tend to be self-conscious, you should be prepared for this. All in all, this is a fantastic local business that deserves your patronage. Highly recommended. read more

Came here for a drop in class with my boyfriend at 1 30pm for the trial class. Wow, we had such great instruction from Logan I was blown away. Having gone to both CrossFit Boston and CrossFit Southie for 3 years, my standard is high since I think CFS has some of the top teachers in the entire city. Logan was on par with what I would hoped for an exceeded expectations. We did the Cindy work out and focused on the dead lift for the strength portion. I was impressed that their pricing is great, they have free parking, the space is clean + simple, AND they also do 5 dollar drops in on SAT and SUN to allow for those non crossfitters to still be a part of the community as needed and for an insanely decent price. I would also like to think this is a nice way to give back to the city of boston + the hyde park area since access to health/wellness/fitness i hard to come back for the less privileged populations. hats off to this box. i would totally join if i were not living in the south end however if i move to jp, i will be a part of it probably. yay!

I could not speak more highly of JP CrossFit. They have taught me proper form and I have had significant improvement in my health, strength, and attitude. As a newbie, I was intimated to join, but Logan, Miguel, and Jade are phenomenal coaches. They explain everything thoroughly and are ever so patient with everyone. Give it a try, you wont be disappointed. Its time for you to make a move, dont you think? This is the place! read more

I've loved this gym for years! Great workout, not matter what you're up for. This welcoming community would love to have you and the quality coaches will get you fitter! read more

I've been going to this gym for right around 5 years and I can't say enough good things about it. This community has become like family to me. The coaches and members are supportive and attentive irrespective of skill or athletic ability. Programming is great. Absolutely would recommend checking this gym out! read more

JP Crossfit has done wonders for my athletic performance and overall body fitness. All of the trainers are knowledgeable, passionate, friendly and patient. The exercises are intense and maximize effort in minimal time. In short, you get an amazing workout and get pushed (in a supportive way) to your limit in just one hour, including stretching/warm-up. The community is warm, encouraging to all regardless of ability level, and makes the experience all the more enjoyable. The class sizes are small, so you really feel like you get that 1-on-1 attention when improving your form for all of the different power lifts and body movements, as well as instruction on mobility, flexibility, etc. What's noteworthy for me is that after one class, two of the trainers had regularly noticed issues with my foot mobility/strength and its effect on my lifts over a few weeks, and gave me a 15 minute tutorial on improving my foot strength/mobility. I now no longer need to use supportive orthotics during my daily routine and Crossfit workouts due to their instruction. It makes the $180/month membership well worth it. (The $180 gives you access to workouts 5 days a week, and additional technique/form classes and an open gym -- not bad). You don't have to be a peak athlete to have a worthwhile experience; everything is scaled to your ability level. I certainly scaled everything significantly when I first started. I've been amazed at my personal progress over 6 months. Another noteworthy experience of joining Crossfit has been that I have been able to train for a marathon, incorporating Crossfit into my routine, and have been injury free the entire time. I have had to stop training for two previous marathons due to stress injuries. Crossfit has made my workouts and training well-rounded and improved my strength, such that I have been able to shave minutes off of my best running times and I feel good and strong after my longest training runs, instead of uselessly tired for a few days. In closing, JP Crossfit has done things for my fitness and health that nothing else has in my adult life. Highly, highly recommend JP Crossfit to ANYONE. read more

I enjoyed my sessions at this gym, but I decided I didn't have the time to continue with it. I would have given them a four out of five, but... When I cancelled my membership, the gym continued to charge me for an extra month. This is apparently automatic with their online system, but beware there is no notice that you are signing up to be charged each month on their website. When I found this out on my credit card statement, I called them immediately. They said they do not refund bills and offered me credit for sessions each time instead. I asked that they produce the contract indicating that I agreed to be charged into the future, and at that point they agreed to my refund. I didn't let that bother me too much because I understand they are a new gym, and are probably struggling to survive. But a gym should succeed not by using on online web form to automatically charge clients without giving them any notice of that. Fast forward four months since they promised to refund my monthly charge. I still have not received the refund. I've emailed them multiple times. First, the problem was with their online billing system. Next, it was a delay in the paperwork. Finally, I asked that they simply mail me a check. At this point, they are not even responding to my emails, so I've now had to call them, and they've promised me the check. I don't know why they are operating so unprofessionally - once you agree to a refund, why not execute it right away? It is too bad, because the gym seemed liked it had potential. But with the proliferation of crossfit gyms with little to no supervision from crossfit central, I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. read more

I'm coming up on a year at JPCF, and I could not speak more highly of this place. I came from almost no athletic background, and certainly nothing in the last 10 years. From the very first day, EVERYONE, coaches and athletes alike, were extremely nice, welcoming, and helpful. I know not all crossfit gyms are created equal, and that some can be unsafe due to poor oversight, but this is DEFINITELY not the case here. Coaches are extremly attentive to proper form and technique, and are good at helping athletes find their edge and also speak up if things don't look right or if you need to take a step back. Also over the course of my time at JPCF, I've had a few injuiries/conditions to deal with, and they make a huge effort to scale things so that you can still get a good workout. More than just being willing to scale, they go out of their way to do it and really care about everyone being safe and getting a good workout. It also speaks volumes of the athletes, that no matter what your skill or ability level is, everyone cheers you on and give you high fives, whether you're deadlifting 35 lbs or 350 lbs. I was so intimidated to join since I didn't have a fitness background, but because of my time here I'm getting to a place I'm really proud of. I could go on and on, but I'll end by saying that community is huge. In addition to the regular work outs, there are awesomely fun community WODs, events, and even right now a Harry Potter themed 8-week team competition. If you're afraid to try crossfit, come here. No matter your background or ability. They will meet you where you are and help you push yourself in a way that meets your skill and ability level. Awesome, awesome place. read more

JP Crossfit is a great gym. I just moved to the Forest Hills area and I was looking for a good gym with lots of free weights and without an attitude problem. This one fits the bill. The trainers are knowledgeable and helpful, regardless of your fitness level. (I have some experience with powerlifting, and they are great at pointing out room for improvement.) The class sizes are usually small, and they are capped at 15. The community is great. I am not used to the endurance needed for Crossfit workouts, and so when I ended up panting and exhausted before the end of the workout, some folks who had already finished WENT BACK AND DID IT AGAIN with me until I finished. That was the best experience I've had at a gym. read more

Just want to say a big thank you to Logan, Miguel and Jade for these past few months at JP Crossfit... I definitely still have a ways to go but I was able to reach new personal records/goals and I loved every minute that I was there! Sad that I moved out of the area but so excited to continue crossfit. The trainers are very encouraging, helpful and supportive. I loved the class sizes/environment! read more

Will join the chorus of reviews and say that JP Crossfit has it all - attentive and careful coaches, intelligent programs, and friendly members. Very grateful for all I learned here and hope to visit again someday! read more

I love JP CrossFit! I live around the corner, so there is the convenience. It is very intimate and communal. People cheer you on, they do introductions and everyone (instructors and students) are so supportive. It is more expensive than your regular gym, which is what kept me away at first. But they give you a week for for free to try it out and it really is like small group personal training. I hope to keep going back! read more

This is truly a special place! You get a lot more than what you pay for. For example, they regularly spend extra time with me after workouts teaching me new skills or sharing new information about fitness. They are also very sensitive to preventing injuries and I never feel silly asking them about a "funny feeling in my knee or ankle, etc." Prior to cross fit, I would get injured a lot! I had relatively good strength but was hyper mobile and would start a new work out regime only to have to stop 3 weeks later due to injury. I liked to workout and was repeatedly frustrated by my injuries. I couldn't hang from a bar without pain and now I can do 2 pull-ups without assistance. I used to be bored by exercise and now I look forward to it. read more
