This review is for Next Level Fitness in Hannibal, NY, serving Fulton, Oswego, Mexico , Syracuse…read moreand all of Central New York. Started by three friends from the Fulton area, Next Level Fitness has literally changed lives! With classes at 5 AM and 6 AM on weekdays, next level offers classes to meet everyone's schedule. Whether it is for $5 a class or for a monthly fee, Next Level has weigh-ins, personal coaching and calorie awareness to help get gains for its clients. Still another perk of the monthly rate is to be able to do workouts at your leisure because the instructor is streamed and recorded to not ever miss a day for home use. Inside a spacious pole barn where socially distanced grids are set up and a plethora of anti-bacterial hand sanitizers, masks and other supplies are readily available. Located at 12 Harold Drive off of Route 3 between Hannibal and Fulton, this is a place where if you have the will, they will show you the way! Great job Ashley, Erin and Hollie! You are changing lives by offering a comfortable place to make gains no matter where you are, you can still go far!!!!

You will get an okay to good work out, depending on the day and trainer. The classes I paid for…read morewere the small group training classes. This means that there are 3 people per class. So you do get a personal trainer experience, however the workouts are not consistently good. Also, when I attended this gym there were times that the trainers were late. One time the trainer was 15 minutes late because he had car issues. I understand that things happen, but when you are paying 50 dollars for a 45 min class...15 min is worth more than a couple of bucks. He did not even mention a reimbursement or tried to make up the 15 minutes we lost. Lastly, if you decide to go to this gym, please read the fine print and check your credit card statement. I noticed they charged me a 30 dollar enrollment fee that was not mentioned anywhere in the contract. I have asked the owner to reimburse me since October and he still has not. Just a heads up if you decide to go to this gym.

My wife and I have been doing CrossFit since 2012 and found KSCF when we moved here in 2018. We…read morehave been members since and to be quite honest it has become a home away from home, even after moving from Kendall Square to Davis Square where we have closer options available. Kendall Square CrossFit is a great location, a supportive and energetic community, and has great coaches that prioritize safety and range of motion/movement to heavy weights and maxxing out. Everyone is engaged, friendly, and supportive with no big egos or difficult personalities present in the classes no matter the level or how long you have been a member (we get a lot of drop-ins as well). Everyone is there to get better and achieve their goals and there is not a bunch of nonsense and power struggles that I have seen and experienced in other gyms. The equipment is well cared for and maintained and while not everything is present there for a dedicated games-style athlete, there is plenty of equipment to get your typical CrossFit-style workout in (except the assault/echo bike, but those things can stay in the trash where they belong :P). This is all managed despite a smaller space than some other gyms, but the coaches manage it so there is no danger of injury or overcrowding due to space issues. It's essentially two racquetball courts with a wall knocked out to give you an idea of the size of the space. It gives it a cool feeling with the vaulted ceilings but can carry a pretty heavy echo when instruction is going on... which also happens when the music is played which makes it really loud (which I like). Members also get access to the CAC amenities such as the locker rooms, showers, saunas, and other equipment. You seem to get more than you do for the same relative cost at other CrossFit gyms in the area where many don't have showers, saunas, or even lockers. We have been very pleased with our 7ish years at KSCF and despite having changing situations and evaluating options to go elsewhere, we never left or think about leaving. It is truly a pillar in our daily lives and the membership has led to many friendships in (and more importantly outside) the gym. I can't recommend KSCF enough to anyone in the area looking for a way to better themselves and not worry about how they are viewed while beginning or continuing their fitness journey, even if you are new to CrossFit or just want to see what it is all about!

I've been to my share of CrossFit gyms around Cambridge, but nothing quite prepared me for Kendall…read moreSquare CrossFit. Located in the heart of Cambridge's innovation district, this facility seems to have missed the memo on both innovation and basic maintenance. Walking into the gym feels like stepping into a time capsule -- one that's been gathering dust for months. Every piece of equipment wears a visible layer of grime, from the dumbbells to the rowing machines. When I asked staff about the cleanliness standards, I was told, matter-of-factly, "We clean, but dust flies around." It's the kind of response that makes you wonder if management has given up on the concept of deep cleaning entirely. The exercise floor mat tells its own story of neglect. Fraying edges and splintering surfaces turned my hands into pincushions during floor exercises -- a recurring issue that happened in nearly every class I attended. For a sport that demands athletes grab, grip and ground themselves constantly, having equipment that actively wounds participants seems counterproductive. Then there are the towels, which possess all the softness of medium-grit sandpaper. Using them feels less like drying off and more like an aggressive exfoliation treatment. I developed rashes that took days to heal -- hardly the post-workout glow I was seeking. The ventilation system appears to be more theoretical than functional. The air hangs heavy with the accumulated sweat of countless workouts, creating an atmosphere that newcomers will find overwhelming and regulars have simply learned to endure. It's the kind of environment where you find yourself taking deep breaths before entering, knowing fresh air will be in short supply. Space is at such a premium that peak-hour classes become exercises in human Tetris. Athletes regularly collide during movements, and navigating around classmates becomes part of the workout itself. Adding to the puzzling equipment situation: unlike every other CrossFit gym I've visited, this one doesn't provide jump ropes -- forcing members to bring their own or go without. The coaching staff presents the starkest contrasts I've encountered in fitness. Most instructors seem to view their teaching duties as an unfortunate interruption to their day. Jimmy Kuykendall projects such visible disinterest that his lack of enthusiasm becomes contagious in the worst possible way. Meaghan Shea displays a sense of deep apathy that permeates her instruction, making participants feel more like an inconvenience than paying customers. Stavroula Papdopoulos brings energy but delivers instruction that's often incomprehensible, leaving participants to guess at proper form and technique. But then there's Nery Amaya, who stands out like a beacon in this sea of mediocrity. Amaya demonstrates genuine expertise, offers clear instruction, and maintains the kind of motivational energy that makes the difference between a good workout and a great one. His presence raises an obvious question: how does such a skilled coach remain in an environment that seems designed to crush professional spirits? Having sampled other local options like Invictus and CrossFit Somerville, I can confirm that these standards aren't universal to the sport. Those facilities demonstrate that it's entirely possible to maintain clean equipment, breathable air, and engaged coaching staff. Kendall Square CrossFit feels like a missed opportunity in a neighborhood known for innovation and excellence. The gym charges competitive rates for what amounts to a substandard experience, saved from complete failure only by one instructor's determination to maintain professional standards. For potential members weighing their options, I'd suggest visiting during peak hours to experience the space constraints firsthand, and perhaps bringing your own towel -- and jump rope. For anyone with other options in the Cambridge area, I would recommend staying as far away from this facility as possible. Save your money, your health, and your time -- you'll thank yourself later.
