This was my first time there. If you haven't worked out in a while or are just getting into it,…read moreBEWARE! Today was leg day, my legs hate me and have decided to remain in a jelly state for the time being. With that said, the work out was amazing! The trainer was super friendly and not at all pretentious or judgmental. I have been to gyms before where it's obvious I'm not a fit person and I have felt that the trainers are annoyed by that. I don't remember his name, he told me a few times but I was focusing on trying to stand. He was just super nice. It was awesome. The man at the desk was super friendly too and easy going and not at all giving me any vibe of pressuring me to become a member. I am, I just need to go to more classes to see what membership I want. I bought a group on and used it towards a 10 class pack to figure it out. I have already recommended a friend and am really excited to go back. As soon as I can walk. I liked that it was dark in there so I did t feel so visible in my uncoordinated struggles. I was not at all self conscious. Also, the ratio of women to men was like 8:2 or something like that. So that was a super bonus. Not that I care if men are there, it's just less intimidating when there are a good number of women in a class. For me anyway. I highly recommend it. The only thing is there is no sign, so I drove by it once or twice but I figured it out.

Joe, the owner, is almost always around and the trainers he hires are knowledgable, supportive, and friendly. I started weight lifting at home with some dumbbells during the pandemic and was a little nervous about joining a 'real' gym but I didn't need to be - I really appreciated how welcoming everyone was and how it really feels like a community, even when you're brand new. I also worked with one of the trainers, Theresa, specifically on nutrition. She rocks as well!

Food and fitness is not always a harmonious marriage, but they go hand in hand. For the last month,…read moreI've been an official member of White wolf gym in Salem. After giving birth to burrito last year Phil and I rediscovered our love for food on the Northshore. We realized we were eating out almost every day and decided to capitalize on it by documenting our meals and experiences. The more restaurants we visited and reviewed, the more we wanted to share with our friends and family. This quickly became part of our routine. After doing this for several months, I realized this was supper counterproductive to losing the baby weight and overall health. I started going for 30min walks every day, and when that became super boring, I signed up for planet fitness, and when that didn't yield any results, I started taking yoga classes sporadically. I wasn't able to keep up with any of these for one reason or another, so I decided to move on to something new. As our blog grew and the length of time I spent on Instagram increased, I started to notice this gym pop up on friends' pages or in my feed sometimes in other friends' stories. White wolf seemed to be sending me subliminal messages. I spent weeks creeping and basically stalking their content before I finally decided to DM Joe, the owner. He invited me in to do a 2-week, and the rest is history. Phil and I are still working out some kinks in our routine, and the struggle to attend classes consistently is still there. But there's nothing like taking one of Joe's classes. This gym is the embodiment of Cross training. And Joe always keeps it interesting. I have yet to be bored or come out of a class feeling like I wish I never came. What does happen is your motivation is ignited. I'm continually hearing other members talk about how much stronger they are since coming here or sharing words of encouragement to stick with it and be consistent results will occur. When something in your life is changing you for the better, I feel like you have to share it!

I had been doing…read morecrossfit for a year before then, and for my year at Commonwealth my technique improved immensely. The coaches like Brian, Larry and Abby are sticklers for technique, but as a result help you build safer foundations for movements. For example, I hadn't realized that I was basically throwing myself at the wall for handstand pushups when there was a much safer way of getting up on the wall, which then later allowed me to complete hand stand walks! People at this gym are great as well, laid back and relaxed. It's a great place to work out!

Here's…read moremy experience: I knew I'd be coming out to Beverly, MA in June, so I looked up Crossfit gyms ahead of time. A friend pointed me towards NSCF as well, so I reached out via e-mail. Tara responded promptly to my request for information about being a drop-in visitor ($20 fee, have your home coach send us a note with any training concerns, & please being a T shirt from your home gym ... All good info !!) and last Wednesday, I found myself here ! I felt VERY welcome, the coach introduced himself & made sure I knew what was going on, where to warm up, etc. Dave, the owner, also came over & said hello. I met some fun people, had a great workout, and would definitely return here if I am in the area again. The space is well laid out, all the equipment was familiar to me - standard Rogue boxes, etc - and the gym appears, to me anyway - to be run by professional, safe & sane folks who exemplify what I want Crossfit up be. I found no "hacks" here. If I lived in the area, this would be my gym.

But I loved how low-impact it was on my knees etc. so kept going back... and now 130+ classes later it's safe to say I'm hooked. Starting to see muscle definition in ways I never have before, and the more I go the better I feel. It's worth a try if you're considering it!

I recently started going to F45 in Medford. The staff is very friendly and they provide you with a…read moregood overview at your first class. I like that they do a mix of resistance, cardio and hybrid workouts. They typically have a little bit of everything in each day. This is more cross training based so expect to lift light and fast. If you enjoy the heavy lifting with low reps to build muscle, this isn't for you. If you're looking to get lean, then this is a great workout! My only issue is that they advertise a 45 min class but the workout itself is closer to 35mins.

The crew that comes here is pretty hard core and they have a wide offering of classes- as early as 5am (!) for the first class of the day. I loved their music, too (straight hip hop generally and no techno like other F45 locations). The parking situation is pretty good and there is a really good nail salon right next door for those wanting to hit a gel mani right after the class. I was highly impressed with the motivation and instruction this class gave me. I had a baby within the year and after 7 straight days of this class I felt like I legit dropped the 10 pounds I had left to lose. This is the perfect work out for mothers - 45 mins in and out and Saturday you can treat yo'self to that 60 min work out. I am attaching a pic here- I've gotten more and more fit the more I go. I did have to join the Somerville Location b/c it was closer to where I live in Cambridge, but I really loved the Medford spot. If not for the traffic I prob would have joined here.

For me, I like to attend them all to switch it up. There's lifting three times a week and then a class called 50-50 which is a mix of cardio and strength and then there is a class called SWEAT which is a lot of cardio and great interval training! The gym also offers "open gym" time and even a yoga class on Saturdays! The atmosphere is far from intimidating and Meghan is an absolute All-Star at what she does. She is consistently helping you with form and is so creative with generating new & challenging workouts so you don't fall into a boring routine or plateau!
