I spent the day with my mom yesterday and she asked if I lost weight. This is the first time in…read moreabout 3 years since she thought I looked skinny instead of repeatedly asking if I were pregnant (emphatic NO). I also hadn't lost a single pound. Her comment yesterday made me think back to when I was in the best shape of my life. That was 8 years ago when I trained here with Ali. I was 91 pounds and had the toned physique of a ballerina. After I received a black belt in Tae Kwon Do, I started living a very sedentary lifestyle. I decided to get back into martial arts but wanted to learn new skills. I joined Roshankish to study Muay Thai and Krav Maga. I loved every minute of it even though it kicked my behind. Not only was it a wonderful workout but I learned important every day self defense skills necessary for a woman my height (under 5 feet tall) and weight. I got into amazing shape so quickly. I was so toned from all the drills. My classmates were always very supportive and encouraging. Just when I thought I was going to drop dead from exhaustion, they provided me that much needed boost to keep going. Plus, there's no better feeling than being able to hit someone legally. There were people of all sizes, shapes, ages and experience levels. Most had no experience and just wanted a fun way of getting in shape and relieving stress. Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. Despite having a martial arts background, it wasn't necessary since I actually had to unlearn certain skills. For example, Muay Thai has a strong focus on low kicks and punches. Therefore, don't let lack of previous experience deter you from trying this place. Krav Maga is the best way to learn important self defense that's applicable for this crazy world we live in. I no longer live in MA and miss this place and the people so much.

Parking is a little tough if you do not have a Somerville Permit (need to find a meter in the AM or just hope you do not get towed in front of the Car Wash place). Overall a great spot in the Cambridge/Somerville area. Reminds me of Ethos in the South End.

I'm updating this review since it's been a year and I'm still getting to the TR at least once a…read moreweek. My favorite class is the Thursday 6am spin class. Derek and Regan are my favorite instructors for different reasons. Derek is great at creating a class that mimics an outdoor ride. Whether we're modeling our workout after part of the Tour de France or just taking on a series of hills, I always feel like I left with a great workout. Regan always choose fun, upbeat music that helps you to power through her drills. I feel like sometimes a class can be repetitive, but the music and her attitude make the class go by pretty quickly. I also recently tried a Wednesday 6am bootcamp class that meets outside at Conway park. I'd never worked with the two instructors (with Sean + another instructor who I hadn't met before). I normally DESPISE bootcamps, and it can suck being the new person to a group. But the instructors had great attitudes, were really funny, and made the class enjoyable by changing up our activities frequently. It involved a lot of partner work, but I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. AND--I felt twinges in my abs from all the planking for at least a week afterward. (Which means I should probably do this class more often.) The only downside to these classes is that I would really love another 6am spin class (although obviously not possible if the indoor space is already in use). I feel like a lot of people would do a Friday AM spin class if it were offered. I'm giving 4 stars mostly because I've only found the 6am spin class to be the one class that I really consistently attend, but the Training Room is an awesome place to take classes if you want a low stress, low-commitment trial with a new activity.

Even if you are a beginner and have never tried anything like this (which is how I was), don't be afraid to try it especially when I transitioned from kickboxing to muay thai. Everyone there is extremely supportive and will always encourage you to do better not only on the mats but in everything you do in life.

His methodology combines key skills in boxing, muay thai, into regular strength and conditioning, with fun and effective skills and drills. He is honest, real, and cares about people. I trained with Rob 5-6x a week for a boxing competition and continuously for now almost 2 years. He has an unique program that trains winners and builds bodies and minds. I've greatly improved my skills in boxing, but also during the 4 months lost 10lbs and 5% body fat and gained lean muscle. What I didn't expect is the complete identity shift and confidence that came with the body. Most importantly, Rob is one of the rare individuals that sees your potential before you do yourself. Let's face it, sometimes we seek transformations because of a life event. He speaks life into you, rather than make you feel inadequate about your body. His jovial approach and energy makes working out the best time of the day. I've transformed into a more confident, athletic shape, more resilient individual individual because of My Loyalty Fitness. People should have the opportunity to reach out to Rob. You can find him on Insta @myloyaltyfitness.

And I love the energy and positivity of the trainers. Greg and Amanda really do a great job running the show. The gym is kept very clean and bags are in good shape. If I have an injury, the trainers are great about helping me modify my workout or giving me stretches or exercises to do. If you're new, the trainers will help you learn proper technique. If you forget your gloves every so often they will usually let you borrow a pair. Your level of athleticism doesn't matter. If you go hard, you WILL be exhausted. And the trainer will make sure you don't forget to go hard! The only downside I can think of is that evening kickboxing classes are practically non-existent. But they usually do such a good job running the boxing class that I'm not worried about it. Just something to be aware of if you're really into MMA or Muay Thai, etc. Just a quick thing about the 1-star reviews I saw. Practically all gyms make it difficult to cancel. It's just the nature of the industry. And it's that way for a bunch of reasons. But I've never had a problem freezing my membership due to injury or resolving an issue with my card, etc. The are some other gyms out there (like when I tried Gold's about 10 yrs ago) where they have sleazy salesmen who will put on a fake smile and play every game in the book to get your money regardless of whether you were happy or even able to use the gym. I've never gotten any of that nonsense at any TBC I've been to.
