I originally signed up with a different health club and that was a disaster. Ended up having a…read moreprocedure on my back a week after I left. Decided to give Blink a try. Saw an offer for $10 a month and thought this was only for minimal machines ... NOT, I'm able to use all the machines. At the times I go there are about 10 to 15 people there. Everyone is super friendly and constantly walk around to make sure I'm good. Many of the men that are there come to get a good workout in and leave not walk around like this is a meat market. The place is clean and ALL the machines work. I'm really glad that I joined, and have recommended Blink to several people who have either joined or want to. I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!!!

For one the place is closed. They closed abruptly on August 2. I was there August 1! No…read morecommunication whatsoever. For the last few months, the air-conditioning has been "out" except oddly cold when you first walk in. I think they just chose not to turn the air on all the way because they couldn't explain it and it's no way but now we know they were closing. Whoever bought it a few years ago it's never been the same. Sinks in the women's bathroom, temperamental or didn't work at all. Machines broken for the last few months have never been repaired. Bad business practice make sure you get your money back. I feel bad for morning Adriana, who was fantastic all these years. Good luck to you, Adriana!

Nobody payed attention to him in high school cuz he was a tall lanky nerd but now he's on TRT and wants you to notice him, and you will because he likes to slam the barbell to the ground when he's done with his set then pace around while grunting. Staff is great and always greets you.

Now known as "Charter Fitness" it's been my gym for nearly two years now…read more It's the better of the ones in the area- plenty of open space for stretching or anything that requires a little space. Equipment is rarely broken for long, and it's nice and clean and only gets that funky gym smell during peak hours in February when everyone is starting their resolutions to get fit. It gets crowded from 3-7pm on most days- especially in the middle of the week. But that's fine because I usually go by 1pm or in the evening. I have had two trainers here and they both have been great, but my current one, Patrick, is fantastic! He pushes me to my limit and isn't scared to throw extra weight at me. All members receive a free training session so ask for him if you can! They changed the babysitting room into a training room so everyone that being trained spends the majority of their time in a private room- no need to feel scared of working out in front of everyone (or having to fight for space to lift) Everyone that works there is super nice and willing to help if you just ask.

I have been part of a team for as long as I can remember; playing sports, grammar school through…read morecollege. Because I love the team aspect of sports, I have never enjoyed exercising on my own. Team has always been my draw to any fitness program I have tried, and I have tried them all. I have belonged to the local gym, bootcamps, and aerobics programs (just to name a few) and none compare to CrossFit Beverly. CFB offers top notch coaching, a$$ kicking Workouts, and an awesome team atmosphere. The owner and head coach, John is awesome. He is encouraging, enthusiastic, energetic, and knows his stuff. John is passionate about CF and it shows. He will teach you proper form and correct you if you are doing a movement wrong so you will not get hurt. He will even do a WOD with you so you won't have to do it alone. He is a family man and encourages you to bring your kid(s) to the WODs (even if you have a babysitter). John brings his daughter who is sure to cheer for you on those tough Saturday morning WODs. I love how each WOD is posted online before the workout. As soon as my alarm rings, I check the WOD. I have never been so eager to hop out of bed for a workout. It is obvious that much thought went into programming because each WOD is always challenging and makes me push past my comfort zone. CFB has all fitness levels and each WOD can be modified. As if great coaching and challenging WODs weren't enough to get me hooked, what really sets CFB apart is the supportative community and team atmosphere. I was intimidated at first, but everyone was so welcoming. I have a special place in my heart for the 6:30am crew and couldn't get through the WODs without them. Everyone encourages and pushes each other to go harder, faster and heavier. The CFB athletes are working towards a better "me" both mentally and physically which creates a great camaraderie. Bottom line, CrossFit works. You will get in the best shape of your life and have a blast doing it. Thank you to John for bringing CrossFit to Beverly!

The class is 50 minutes and trust me you are working just about every minute of that. Kelly the instructor is a great motivator! If it wasn't for her energetic attidute and genuine excitment to get our butts moving, I don't think I could have gotten through it on that sleepy Sunday morning. The classes are small whichs allows for a more personal feel. Kelly will take the time and make sure you are doing the moves correctly in order to get the most out of your workout. She is extrtemely knowlegdable in both fitness and nutrition...I'm telling you, this girl knows what she's doing. She also makes sure to learn all the participants names to help encourage you along the way....how cool is that? Not only are you getting a personalized workout but did I mention it's affordable? These classes will not break the bank like some of the other downtown gyms...and also you do not need to sign a contract which allows for a lot of flexibilty within your schedule. I couldn't be happier with the workout that I recieved from Kelly at Barre it All. I am still feeling the affects of it two days later (no joke). I think this gym is a great addition to the area and I can't wait to try some of the other classes offered:)

I went for six weeks of training without doing the same exercise twice. He uses the Pilates, cardio and boxing techniques in his routines. No need for big weight machines. Simple exercises get the job done. Accountability in fitness is important to him. This is a first for any trainer. There is a reason for every workout. It's not just about getting another visit. He keeps measure of my progress over time. Very attentive to the details of how exercise is done. He tailors my workout to the needs based on the season. Ski season workouts versus hiking or tennis workouts. Highly recommended.

I've been with Silencer Athletics for over three years. I started out with personal training…read moresessions with Paul and later transitioned to his group fitness classes. Having held multiple gym memberships through the years that I rarely used, I knew joining another regular gym (like LA Fitness) wouldn't work. With past gym memberships, I would typically waste time when I went to the gym, since I didn't really know what to do. Then eventually, I'd stop going and simply waste money as I was locked into a contract. This is the longest I have ever stayed with a gym. It works for me since there are usually structured classes at 6am and 5pm. There are also other time options depending on how much you pay. The group classes typically include an extensive warm up then resistance and/or weight lifting. Boxing and kettle bell classes are also available, as well as yoga. The monthly fee is $215, which is a bit pricey, but it is a small Black-owned business that has a very personal feel. Paul has an A+ character and the other members of the gym have become like extended family members. It is a good (but difficult!) workout and I've seen significant changes in my body composition. If the monthly fee fits in your budget and you live in relatively close proximity to the gym, it's definitely worth checking out.
