It looks like the people here are having a good time, but I've noticed that there is at least one coach dating a client. I'm looking for a professional establishment! (And not that kind of a good time lol) If this also gives you the ick, then maybe not the place for you.

I joined this gym about a year and a half ago. It has kept me engaged, motivated, and working towards better fitness in all ways, strength, cardio, flexibility. Coaches are great and help you learn how to do the movements propertly. The other gym members are so supportive, no matter what your fitness level. I've not kept with any fitness program before this. I started as a fat tub of goo and now I'm a less fat tub of goo, but trending in the right direction and motivated to keep coming!

I dropped into commonwealth for a lift off event and I really enjoyed it! The community was amazing and really welcoming. However, I got really excited about matching a Snatch PR after not doing crossfit for a year so I slammed the bar down. Which I've done at a lot of crossfit gyms, with coaches not saying anything about it. After all, we're lifting and pumping each other up! One of the owners told me to cut it out, which all of the members around me were confused by. They said this has never been a rule at all. So that really rubbed me the wrong way. Especially because none of these rules were spelled out at all. Rogue barbells are meant to withstand 600 + lbs, so they can definitely handle my mediocre lifts haha.The OTHER gym owner (and I think the head coach?) was really amazing. He was really welcoming and gave me some great pointers.I would say that I'm rating a very specific experience. I would still suggest going to this gym for the environment and the community. But in my opinion, one of the owners needs to be a bit more clear with the gym rules (that seem to be just in his mind..?) and maybe just chill out a bit.

I actually have no clue how the place is..Every time I walk in there they'll be up to 20 people taking a class with somebody that's in charge of it. I'll stand there for five minutes I can't even get anybody to look me in the eye. I don't see any paperwork or anything to see what the club is about. Do you have to be part of some private club? I just started a work project around here and I'm looking for a place to train and maybe get a personal trainer like I had at any time fitness.

Great community. Great Box. Great Coaches. My home gym when I’m visiting Boston.

Joined about a month ago and have been loving it. The community is super welcoming and the coaching is top notch. Lots of class offerings throughout the day, including a very early morning one (5:30!) for those of us who want to exercise before early starts at work. This is the only crossfit gym I've been to but I wouldn't want to go anywhere else.

I've been going here for like 7 years! I feel like they really care about having a great community of people who care. During the shutdown, they lent out all their equipment to members, which I really appreciated. I feel like I was coached to scale appropriately but also pushed to improve. Before coming here I never would have thought that I would be able to do pull-ups. I have never been injured doing CrossFit but have been able to do it through multiple injuries (that I got from playing ultimate frisbee smh). Love this place.

If you are looking for a fun social distant group fitness class, I highly recommend checking out Crossfit Commonwealth. Commonwealth has done a fantastic job ensuring their athletes feel safe and comfortable while having fun & getting in a great workout!Classes are currently defaulting to outside, and adhere to all MA Covid requirements. Equipment is diligently cleaned between classes, and coaches wear masks in an effort to keep both them & their athletes safe.Programming is written keeping in mind class size (cap is currently 10) to ensure each athlete has their own equipment and doesn't need to share.

What a great gym! The coaching was very thorough, people were welcoming, it had nice equipment, the gym was clean, and the drop-in fee was super reasonable. I was there for a week and already felt like I was part of the community! If/when I am back in Boston, I will definitely be returning to Commonwealth.

I recently completed my first 6-Week Challenge through Commonwealth CrossFit, and can say wholeheartedly that I had an awesome experience – not only did I learn the foundational skills to safely lift heavier weight while significantly increasing my overall fitness level, but I also found a supportive and fun fitness community in my neighborhood that gets me genuinely excited about working out.Brian, the owner of Commonwealth, was very helpful to me in explaining up front what to expect as a participant in the Challenge, in addition to taking me through some of the basic elements of CrossFit over the phone (I had never stepped foot in a Box prior to signing up at Commonwealth).James and Nicole, in addition to all of the other coaches I met during the Challenge, were amazing to work with throughout my first 2 weeks of On-Ramp classes and beyond, always going out of their way to review form with me, demonstrate new movements, or help me complete even the most challenging WODs.I’m excited to now be a member of the Commonwealth community, and look forward to continuing to master the fundamentals of CrossFit. If you had asked me six weeks ago whether I’d ever be able to do a handstand push up, I would have told you absolutely not – now, even though I have a lot of training to do before I get there, I’d tell you that guidance from top-notch coaches, a supportive workout community, and hard work can move anything into the realm of possibility.

Great box! Was visiting from Madrid for a week, and the people welcomed me as one more. Good facilities, easy to find, nice people, and all you can ask from a crossfit box! Will join this one if I ever come live in the area. Keep up the good work!

You go to Starmarket and ask 24 pounds of beef. See how much meat the butcher is bringing. That is how much I reduced from my body during last 6 weeks through the program here.I have served as a soldier 10 years ago, and their program is indeed remind me training program I did in the military, which is much more funner way. Cheerful, helpful and encourage do the exercise more that you think you can do. Brian and Abby who are coaches in there vastly helpful to get my posture right and do more efficient work out.I highly recommend this place if you want to reduce your weight, more importantly, if you want turn your lifestyle to healthier style.

a great gym for both new the new and initiated CrossFitter! classes are large enough to establish community but small enough to receive some individual coaching. coaches are fun, knowledgeable, and patient, and have your best interest in mind. diverse group of people, welcoming and fun!large space to accommodate various workouts. easily accessible by public transportation or driving (parking available). morning, afternoon, and evening classes; specialty classes and general workouts. membership costs are comparable if not slightly cheaper than surrounding CrossFit gyms.
