I’ve been part of the CrossFit Newton (CFN) community for years now. And, it truly is a community. Whether you are just dropping in from out of town, new to CrossFit, or an experienced athlete, you’ll feel included immediately! The owner’s (Gil) programming is top notch and scalable for anyone. Gil is an expert trainer and treats everyone who walks through the doors as part of the CFN family. I cannot recommend this place enough!

I’ve been with CrossFit Newton for almost four months now, and it has been transformational. I was worried that it would be too intense or that I would risk injury, but owner and coach Gil has been great at guiding my progression and giving just the right amount of nudge to get me to the next level. Everyone is super supportive of one another too.

Crossfit Newton is phenomenal. The owner and coach Gil is fantastic. He is excited to train every athlete and participant no matter where you are in your training. His expertise in kinesiology and athleticism is astounding. He is a great communicator. And the culture and community he has created is very, very special. I feel very grateful to have found Gil and Crossfit Newton. It has changed my strength, endurance and athleticism and also helps me feel more positive and joyful every day.

This place is my happy place. It's the hour of my day that makes all the other hours better. I've been going for ten years, and love it so much that I've become a coach! Everyone is so kind and supportive, and we all are chasing our own goals, in community -- some people want to be a badass; others want to stay active into old age; some want to lift heavy weights; others want to run marathons; some want to look good nekked; others want to celebrate their bodies as they are. And some of us want to do it all. Whatever your goals, whoever you are, there is a place for you at CFN. Take it from this 51-year-old suburban mom!Update, two(ish) years later (Jan. 2024) - I've now been going for nearly 12 years and cannot imagine my life without it. I have so. much. fun. when I'm there, and everything I do there carries over into the rest of my life - physically, emotionally, and mentally. I am a stronger, better, healthier person because of the time I spend at CFN, making friends, working out, and just generally having fun. Try it; you won't regret it!

Looking for a good and strong community with cool people? Great owner? With coaches they actually have a lot of expertise? And… yes, and…. Doesn’t matter where you are on your strength and fitness journey, Gil, the owner is able to get to best out of you with calming voice and encouragement and always knows how to adjust every exercise to your personal needs.

I’m new to CrossFit and have been coming to CFN for about 4 months now. I’ve really enjoyed it and look forward to going to classes every week. Liz, Gil, and the other coaches are very supportive and great at helping me learn new exercises. If you’re looking for a gym, I’d highly recommend CFN.

I've been an off and on member of Crossfit Newton for over a decade and can't say enough about this fitness community. The coaching and programming is second to none. It's a positive, supportive, inclusive, friendly environment that accommodates any age or fitness level. You would not be disappointed if you tried it out.

CFN has become an integral part of my life. Owner/Coach Gil programs tough workouts but is also so knowledgeable and is always providing scaling options for everyone’s individual fitness levels and needs. The warm atmosphere at the gym makes me eager to show up and my fellow workout buddies push me but just in an encouraging and friendly way.Gil helped me safely work out through two pregnancies and even held my babies so I could work out!CFN is perfect for beginners, fitness buffs, everything in between.

This is the 3rd Crossfit gym I have been a member at. What sets Crossfit Newton apart from the others, is the sense of community, combined with the knowledge and compassion from ownership. Over the six years that I have been a member, I reached goals, both at a skill and strength level, I never thought I could accomplish in my life. For this reason, I continue to set higher goals as I progress.Not only do I feel accomplished physically when leaving the gym, more importantly, my state of mind is in a better place then when I first arrived. Long way of saying, I highly recommend the gym! Member tip (if possible) - try having your first class with Gil. That is not saying there is anything wrong with the other coaches, as all coaches at the gym are great!

I went to 3 drop-in classes with Gil and loved all of them. It was a great workout and a welcoming, supportive, fun community. As a young woman I felt comfortable. Gil was FANTASTIC, spending personalized time understanding my situation, giving helpful advice on ways I could eliminate pain, and guiding me through proper form. Gil's expansive physiological knowledge applied practically made me question the credentials of my physical therapist!
