Welcoming, thoughtful, and dedicated coaches, team, and owner-- highly recommend. Looking in from the outside, the workouts can admittedly feel intimidating at first, especially for non-athletes (like me). But if you can get past the newness and unfamiliarity, the challenge is well worth it. The workouts and community have an engaging sense of camaraderie, structure, and challenge that keeps each session interesting and effective. I have found that by challenging myself in this way, my confidence to face challenges has expanded into areas outside of workouts as well. There is no pressure to join, which I appreciated, and no obligation to socialize (though opportunities are there if you want them). The studio offers a sense of community with familiar, friendly faces that makes workouts accessible and, frankly, fun. I have been going for about 6+ months and befriended kettlebells, sleds, and Ski and RowERGs-- and have seen significant improvements in strength and energy. It has been a great complement to yoga and Pilates. The variation in daily workouts (resistance training, cardio, and hybrid days), which are easy to preview on the app ahead of time, paired with upbeat music--and often a DJ on Saturdays-- makes the time go by quickly. Being able to track progress using their InBody scan has also been a key motivator. The space is bright, modern, clean, and sunlit with large windows. Most importantly, the coaches and team are attentive. They are encouraging and supportive throughout the process. I have been to other F45 locations in other states and can confidently say that the coaches at this location are truly excellent-- professional, friendly, and genuinely helpful. read more

I've been walking by this studio for years, but I didn't take my first class until a few months ago. I always assumed it was a weird cult. Well, I think I was right. I think it is a cult, and the patron saint is Mark Wahlberg.* For Pete's (that's me) sake, these are people that like doing burpees between sets. But after 15+ sessions, I guess I'm drinking the koolaid. What I love about it is it's always a full body, crushing workout in only 45 minutes. I can get in and out during the workday, feeling like I actually did something. There's no wasted time. You arrive, warm up, and go. There are screens showing you exactly what you should be doing at all times, and the coaches are roaming around with minor corrections and encouragement. There will be machine work (rowing, skiing, biking, etc.), kettlebells, weights, bodyweight exercises, weighted balls, resistance bands, jumps, agility work...all kinds of movement to challenge yourself. There will be so many different types of squats, and RDLs, and presses. The workouts are thoughtfully designed to hit your whole body. If you ever played sports, you might find that this is a much better motivator to push your body than most other workouts. You get out what you put in (like everything in life), and the other folks around you help you push yourself in a low-pressure way. And with this type of circuit training, I find that I don't have time to get bored, which makes it more fun than just about anything else I do, workout-wise. And in my experience, the coaches are awesome. The first person I met was Grace, who seems like she runs shit around here. She's also a badass who I've seen push triple the weight I can on a sled with a full grown man on top of it besides. I'm more of a morning workout guy, and while I've had a bunch of different coaches, Rashell (who's leaving sadly) and Luther are often there in the AM, and always cool. They are just good people who help with my form (which is terrible), and are obviously in amazing shape. Shout out to Sisi and Cascio and Jade and all the other awesome folks as well. I like that many of them will just jump in on a class that they aren't running to get a workout in too. To be clear, F45 is not easy (if you actually go for it), especially at first. I wanted to complain that I'm too old for this shit, but I've seen multiple men and women with grey hair lapping me in some of the circuits. Personally I find that if it's a cardio session, chances are I'll feel like I'm dying afterward. If it's weights/resistance, chances are I'll feel like I'm dying the day after. But after a couple months of going semi-regularly, I feel good, and I almost enjoy the classes. Almost. Well, I think I'm in a cult. And I like it. _________________ *My first class was during "Wahlberg Week" and his voice would get on the loudspeaker and encourage us. read more

F45 Boerum Hill is absolutely the best workout you can do. It's an efficient and complete workout surrounded by an amazing community. A great mix of strength based workouts and cardio focused days in between, I'm able to go 6-7 days a week and never feel repetitive. The coaches are amazing. Many have become good friends over time. I have convinced many area friends to join, but the other members quickly become friends too. Led by Grace, her team is filled with absolute fitness legends. Wallace and Luther run an amazing Lift Club that taught me how to lift heavier with less effort. The knowledge these trainers have is next level. I'm so grateful how F45 has changed my life by making exercise a part of my daily life. Thank you thank you. read more

These guys are the best! Staff is amazing - super helpful, friendly, and motivating. Their HYROX programming (strength, running, sims and more) is also top notch. Great variety and training prep. read more

From the moment I walked through the door I felt like I was brought into the family by the owner Grace. Definitely outstanding community and coaches. I was only encouraged by all to get better each day. The results have been life-changing from increased energy, weight loss, strength gained and most importantly overall mobility. It is a nonjudgmental setting where people of all fitness levels encourage each other to succeed at their own pace. The workouts are different every day and are both challenging and fun! And it only takes 45 minutes. Since I joined F45 6 years ago I have dropped 20 plus pounds and I'm not stopping there. read more

I have been going to F45 Boerum Hill for several months now as a drop-in. Even just going to few classes a week makes me feel incredible. If I lived a bit closer and had more time, I would totally get a membership. All the trainers are the best, down to earth and really care and will make sure your form is correct for each exercise since there are no mirrors, but that's part of the appeal. Positive, supportive and FUN environment - no weird competitive vibe which I think happens quite easily here being in NYC - go to F45 to challenge yourself and have fun in the process - no room for egos here ;) Sarah, Peter, Grace - y'all are the best! See you soon read more

I joined F45 Boerum Hill during quarantine and have utilized both F45 live (zoom classes) and now their outdoor workouts in the Boerum Hill neighborhood parks. It's such a fantastic place to get in shape and work out. The owner Grace plus all the trainers are awesome (Amanda, Steph). So impressed by how they've managed through COVID and kept their members engaged and their community strong. At the outdoor classes they have spaced out boxes for people to distance, have plenty of sanitizer, masks worn while not in the boxes, wipes for the equipment etc. I have gotten in much better shape and I like that everyone is at different fitness levels. They give you modifications and help you out with your form. Looking forward to the actual gym opening and I'll add on to my review then :) read more

F45 is a super efficient way to work out. Basically you turn up and immediately warm up. For the next 45 mins or so you do multiple exercises guided by big TVs and instructors. It's a real good cardio and strength class. Very scientific and very effective. The studio is big, modern and clean. What makes this place special is the focus and passion of the instructors. Unlike F45 I've done in other places, they are focused and energized, constantly pushing and improving your form. Definitely recommended if you need classes to get you motivated and want to maximize effort and time. read more

While we like the concept of F45 classes, what's kept us (my husband and I both) going to these classes is Grace and the other trainers. As ex-college athletes we have been working out all our lives, but occasionally lack motivation and Grace and her staff are the best teammates to keep us going -- really the only place we've been able to keep consistently going everyday. - They help correct form in a positive way - which is SO important - they challenge you while also letting you do your thing if you want - they all are very down to earth and people you want to be training around/with. The Covid workouts outside work great and my husbands been really enjoying the indoor setup as well-- very spaced out spaces for only a few people per class.... feels like a personal trainer experience and it's so nice to have weights again. We are very Covid-conscious but we trust Grace and her processes setup. Give these guys a trial for your workout- and you'll start having less workout excuses and more "yes I'm going today"! read more

So fun! I loved the varied activities and pace. The wall monitors definitely help u, as does the team of instructors on the floor. Got some good corrections, and went at my own pace. Beware, there is NO parking nearby! read more

Just finished a month at F45 Boerum Hill and have decided to sign up for a full membership! The workouts push you hard, but what I really want to shout out are the trainers and community. I severely sprained my ankle right before starting this trial month and every single trainer has been so wonderful at making sure I'm working out safely and offering alternative exercises (that are still intense? don't know how they know all these ways to absolutely kill me while not requiring me to jump). All while keeping the energy high and friendly while we are all sweating it out. Thanks Grace and team! Really glad I found this place and excited to continue my F45 journey! read more
