I can't recommend Mt Olympus gym enough. Christos trained me through pregnancy and postpartum, and…read morethe support I received during that time was incredible! He's extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cares about his clients. Throughout pregnancy, he adjusted workouts thoughtfully so I always felt safe, but still strong and capable. Postpartum, he helped me ease back into movement with patience and encouragement, focusing on rebuilding strength without pressure or rushing the process. I always felt listened to and supported, even on hard days. If you're looking for a trainer who truly understands the body, especially during major life changes and meets you where you are, Christos is it! I am so grateful to have worked with him and would highly recommend him to anyone, especially expecting or postpartum moms.

Sadly, this location offers zero other amenities like whirlpool, sauna, or steam. I can't recall a Y that hasn't had at least one of these and it's a huge nope for me. With the remodel, I don't understand why they didn't leave the two very small changing rooms out and add a sauna. I'll stick to Andover or Woburn.

We chose Burbank YMCA in Reading for preschool sports scheduled during school hours, forcing…read moreenrollment just for access. This convenience fails to mask a toxic, exclusionary, and hostile environment. We pulled our daughter out, canceled her activities, and abandoned summer camp plans for our son. They want our business but don't want to serve us. If you are a family of color or from a diverse cultural background, read this before trusting them. 1. Cold Orientation & Vague Rules: Director Diane gave a cold tour with zero clear verbal/written guidelines on drop-off or food rules, leaving us to figure out logistics. She maintained a cold demeanor for weeks, likely holding a grudge over a first-day pickup issue. 2. Silent Treatment: I messaged school chats well in advance to coordinate my daughter's birthday. Diane completely ignored and left the messages unacknowledged. This cold communication block from management felt like targeted discrimination. 3. Invasive Food Scrutiny: Lacking clear rules, we didn't know about the nut-free policy. After an initial peanut lunch was sent home, a later traditional side dish (idli podi) was sent home claiming it "smelt like nuts." Even after my husband explicitly told the drop-off teacher the food was nut-free, staff still literally smelt our baby's food container and demanded a written ingredient list over their chat app. This total lack of trust and smelling of traditional food was invasive and deeply disrespectful. 4. Public Shaming: This organization relies on a toxic embarrassment culture. When I called ahead running late for a first-day pickup, staff gossiped; the next morning an uninvolved teacher reprimanded me. Diane then blasted a public notice to all families on the network app complaining about late pick-ups. Later, teachers told us drop-off was flexible until 10:00 AM. But days after I dropped my daughter off at 9:35 AM for gym class, Diane blasted a highly targeted notice to all parents declaring 9:30 AM a strict cut-off from the contract. When I pulled my daughter out, Diane backpedaled, claiming it was meant for many parents. They use public shaming to control families rather than handling administration privately. 5. Defensive Management: Internal escalation met a wall. Julie, the regional director, wanted a phone call, but when I proposed an in-person talk, she responded noncommittally, disrespecting my time. Meanwhile, Diane tried to play with me and guilt me, asking why I didn't just talk to her, shifting the blame when I shouldn't have been exposed to this hostility in the first place. Bottom Line: They market "early education" to justify sports traps, but they are just a daycare. This director wants tuition but does not respect diverse cultures or backgrounds, creating an environment where parents cannot win. Save your family the distress and choose an inclusive program.

However, the afternoon/evening crowd mostly do not follow basic gym etiquette. Weights are lying around, people are hogging machines while carrying on conversations, and nobody wipes anything when they're done. Also, they have a ton of hip abductor machines that hardly get used and only one fly machine. I've never been to a PF that has more than one fly machine, but it is always occupied. Would also be nice if they added a side lateral machine. Overall though they have a good selection of machines. Overall, this place ticks more boxes than any other PF in the area (I've been to Billerica, Burlington, Revere, Woburn, Wilmington). 5 stars if they had 2.5lb incremental dumbbells like Woburn.

I was very impressed with our instructor, she is the woman with curly red hair. I forget her name. They did a combo of song, dance, and water practice. I really enjoyed watching. The pool area was warm and under a heated dome, I can't imagine that germs wouldn't harbor in here, which was yucky. The dressing rooms were difficult. I wished they had more "family" areas so both moms and dads could help with wet children. Overall a fantastic value and totally worth it. I will probably sign up for the summer session though next time.

Inviting and fun, and coaches are very good at making progressions/ regressions for workouts which makes the gym good for both experienced and beginners! 2. Programming - functional fitness program incorporating barbells, dumbbells, bodyweight, and circuits. I've been doing all sorts of workouts (CrossFit, calisthenics, running, hockey) for years and I'm still learning what some of these movements are (usually am unfamiliar with a funky core stabilizing movement). Workouts are 1 hour full body with a warm up, strength, and circuit. Also due to programming you are never waiting for equipment! Very efficient 1hr workout. 3. Facility and equipment is beautiful - I don't know any other gym that has so much natural light. Also, all the equipment is shiny and clean. Just a really nice space! Highly highly highly recommend!
