I am so glad I tried Choice Fitness. From the moment I walked in the door, I felt very comfortable here. The Manager saw me looking around and politely asked if he could help with anything. I explained that I was basically a novice when it came to weight training, but I wanted to try. I also explained that I had a particular training plan that another outside trainer created specially for me. Dave was so accommodating. He took me through each routine of my plan, showing me proper form, proper speed, and explained what muscles each exercise was working. He spent time with me on two separate days and went through all the exercises on my plan. I was really impressed by how friendly and knowledgeable he was. I never set an appointment for any of this. Just walked in the door. From what I've seen, this Gym is truly all about customer service. I'm so glad I joined. I only wish this 52 year old found this place sooner. Also, the equipment is all new and they have so much of everything! The facility is super clean. I feel I have finally found a Gym that makes everybody feel comfortable. Five star all the way!

Three years ago I was 30 pound heavier and very unhappy with my appearance. I looked at my photos…read morefrom my son's wedding and was embarassed by my size 14 MOG dress that had to be let out to fit properly. Try as I might before the wedding I could not lose even a few pounds to make that dress fit. I was desperate. Never able to diet properly or feel comfortable in a "big gym" ($9.99 a month) A friend mentioned she was joining a new gym and asked me to go along with her. From the moment I stepped into GISFW I knew the program would help me. I have been a member of this gym for nearly 3 years! Have lost 30 pounds and have kept it off. I feel stronger and more confident. I have met women of all ages (16 - 75) and body types (very heavy - marathoners) There is a place for everyone because the trainers get to know you on a personal level. Read on if you want to know what Get In Shape for Women is really like. I have been going to this gym at least 3 times a week for the past 3 years and have trained with the owner as well as many different trainers, all closely supervised by the owner. Each time I train, if I give it my all, I leave sweaty, a bit sore but full of energy and confidence. This is not a typical gym. The owner, Terri, has dedicated her life to fitness and nutrition. She inspires, motivates, encourages and yes, harasses her clients. That is what many of us need. If you want to be coddled go into therapy. If you want good health and strength you need someone like Terri who will teach, push, and monitor you. The program is perfect for the busy woman who feels like she does not have time for a workout. If you can spare just an hour a day you can fit this program in to your schedule. I go on my way home from work, perfect for me. The gym works because of accountability. You have an appointment with a trainer. These are firm commitments. I would never skip my hairdresser or dental appointment without calling to cancel. The GISFW gym expects the same courtesy and commitment. I feel very guilty every time I have to call and cancel or reschedule. The trainer on the phone always tries to get me to reschedule instead of letting me skip a workout. This is good for me, it means I am committed and my workout is important. My typical workout is 30 minutes of intense weight training then 30 minutes of cardio with interval training. Both have been very effective for me. I may train with up to 3 other women but there have been times when I get the trainer all to myself. Imagine a personal trainer every time you work out! Even if you are sharing the trainer with 2 or 3 other women, you feel the personal attention. GISFW trainers watch clients closely and help them with good form, proper posture and adequate weight. They always challenge me but do not let me slack off. Women working out are just like children, we will look for opportunities to take short cuts. This will not happen at GISFW and that is why many, many women renew their memberships and continue to train there. After my second year at GISFW I thought I could save money and go to the "big gym" and train myself. I knew all the exercises to do and felt confident GISFW had given me the knowledge to train myself. I was so wrong. The first month I used the elliptical each visit but then was so intimidated to cross over into the weight training area. I did not see many women in that part of the gym. I sought out personal training at the "big gym " and learned that sessions with a trainer there were just as expensive as GISFW. So now I am back at GISFW and plan to keep going indefinitely. I can make it work in my budget because I value my health. It is a very expensive investment and not your typical gym. The cost also motivates me to keep going. It was easy to skip days at the $9.99 a month gym. It was also easy to be anonymous at that gym. I like feeling like a valued member who is greeted by name each visit. I need someone to follow my progress and give me nutritional tips. I value the workouts that Terri and her trainers are constantly researching and changing to keep me motivated. At my daughter's wedding my size 10 dress fit perfectly and I felt great. I am so grateful to GISFW for showing me that I can be fit and healthy if I work for it. Have a Healthy Day!

The Details: Several years ago I switched from traditional conditioning (machines, rote freeweight exercises) to functional training. If I only knew sooner... The trainer who originally taught me and my kids moved out of reach. Since then I've engaged in a pretty arduous search and ended up at SOS. As far as I can tell, it's one of a handful of gyms of its kind in the Boston area, and it happens to be at 73 Princeton St., North Chelmsford MA 01863 (https://www.skillofstrength.com). SOS does a terrific job of translating cutting edge methods to well structured and original routines that can be followed by all levels of ability. On one hand there's a somewhat more casual crowd that does a modified version of the day's program (I'm in their MOVE class) and they seem quite content. I'm absolutely, 100% all for that. At the same time, there's another crowd that's always pushing for the next level. Despite the wide ranging audience, SOS underscores the experience with some very subtle social norms - very healthy, and it creates a great vibe. My first experience with SOS was sending my high school aged son through their COMPETE program. It accomplished everything I was hoping for - measurable gains in quickness, strength, cardio, reinforcement of footwork, increased confidence, and familiarization with a vocabulary that athletes require if they're going to progress. All in a personal, incredibly positive environment. Why SOS works for me: starting in my teens and stretching into my late 30's I spent a good portion of time working with skill coaches and strength & conditioning coaches. Together, they made a huge difference in my progress. I don't play a sport anymore, but I still want a technical workout oriented toward increased fitness. SOS delivers in spades. I'm a bug for technique - I actually believe that 5 pounds done right is better than 50 pounds done wrong. As a result I'm constantly asking questions, getting terrific guidance, and no one's lost patience or interest - instead, they seem to be totally into it. SOS has also taught me additional, helpful routines for balance (which are actually fun, and this stuff is supposed be fun), and I'm still pulling myself together on their footwork drills - happily. If you have kids or student athletes who would benefit from a thoughtful, engaging workout, or if you're looking for something different and well structured, or if you simply burn for a good workout, SOS is a terrific place.

I would lift then work on laptop afterwards because I loved the environment and am working all the time and don't have much else going on and never really plan on when I'm gonna leave. They even gave me the WiFi password. It was great until the owner "Gus", confronted me like I was a criminal about why I staying so late afterwards and then accused me of asking out one of the gym members (with worse details) which never happened and didn't believe me about my days off of work. Instead of just being normal and telling me weeks prior that I can't stay late after a workout he and presumably the other staff assumed I was watching them or something. I have a super bad social learning disorder so I'm terrible at reading social cues and at ANY moment in time they could've resolved this like professionals but instead they tried to intimidate me. Not only was I respectful to the entire the staff, I was one of the few people who respected people's privacy by not recording myself. Congratulations, you not only lost a longtime customer, now everyone knows how you treat people who don't fit into the influencer club. At least now they showed their true colors. This is what happens when things get managed by influencers. Fuck you Gus.
