The group strength classes are…read morechallenging but manageable and the trainers are always there to provide feedback and corrections. 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!

This gym is small but these guys are the real deal-they offer expert CF instruction, they are sticklers for form, they explain the context of the movements, and they are very attentive during skill/strength work and WODs. They could not have been more welcoming when I first visited, and I always feel welcome going back. They are a skilled and supportive community of athletes, with a range of skills and ages. If I lived in the area this would be my gym. When I visit typical class size is about 10, which is an ideal size IMO. The gym is small but spacious-it has two walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, high ceilings, and excellent airflow. They've got a nice rig that could accommodate about 10 bars simultaneously and an excellent supply of weights and other equipment. It is about as pleasant as a CF gym is ever going to get! I always look forward to my visits.

Didn't know what Crossfit was. Sounded tough. Looked harder. I spoke to the owner Paul who…read morerecommended just coming in to try and introduction class. I did and let me tell you - it was probably one of the best life decisions I've made. The group training & motivation along with Paul's teaching and coaching have you sitting at work counting down the hours until you can leave work and go to Crossfit. The location is perfect since I live in downtown Beverly and the facility is great to work out in. Very large and wide open with a nice industrial feeling as the over-sized garage doors open up on either side and the refreshing sea breeze blows through. My suggestion? Try it. Go there, don't be intimidated and you'll likely instantly see just how cool this place is.

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.

Yoga Sakti has been absolutely perfect--a terrific selection of classes and instructors, a beautiful studio (spotlessly clean with reassuring health precautions), and a relaxed atmosphere that is inclusive and supportive for beginners to advanced practitioners. As someone who works a hybrid week--both from home in Beverly as well as in the city, the class schedule offers a robust selection at various times during the day and the online portal makes booking effortless--which makes taking multiple classes per week easy! Thank you Yoga Sakti for providing a routinely awesome experience!

Let me begin by saying that, all things considered, exercise isn't my passion. It's not even my…read morepast-time. It's a very, very distant relative that, up until 2 months ago, I avoided as often as possible, because it was kind of confusing and exhausting. And intimidating. And because I'm sort of lazy. Would I rather be watching Netflix? Yes. Does a sedentary lifestyle usually lead to congestive heart disease and early mortality? Yes. Am I 28 and being dramatic? Also, yes. Always, yes. But all jokes aside, it didn't feel good to be out of shape - both physically as well as mentally. Being stuck indoors for 2 years during Covid didn't do me any favors. Physically, I obviously became out of shape, but mentally, I forgot what the point of being in shape was. Feeling comfortable in my own body and feeling proud of what my body is capable of physically doing on a regular basis is an underrated way of being. I started my fitness journey 2 months ago, and as much as I do love to complain during my sessions, I have loved the process. Because unlike when I attended a gym or intermittent classes, working consistently with the trainers at this gym has helped me transform my thoughts and beliefs around exercising and ways to live a healthier lifestyle. To be clear, I still drink and eat out at restaurants way too often. But apart from physical achievements, I have seen and felt a noticeable difference in my energy levels and attitude during my day-to-day. Moving around in the world and existing in a personal and professional capacity has been easier and lighter and gentler. I feel so much more comfortable in my own skin and almost energized by my desire for more. I've felt incredibly supported, motivated, and committed to this process daily by Derek, Cara, Cam, and Dana. I still don't like exercising.I would definitely still rather be watching Netflix. But the things worth having in life are rarely easy to achieve (or so I'm learning). Exercising is still uncomfortable and a little confusing and exhausting. But having amazing humans next to you, cheering you on, and explaining how the whole process works and why? That makes it easier, and that makes it better. And that makes it worth it. I'm rather confident that I couldn't do this process on my own. And I'm rather-rather confident that now, knowing these trainers, I wouldn't want to. Whatever excuses you're making that are steering you away from this process - stop. Just try it. If you don't like it, you don't have to continue. But you have to at least try. Invest in yourself. You deserve it.
