I needed something different to get back in shape. I scheduled a few 1-on-1 training sessions with Tina (owner), which were GREAT! Tina is super professional, friendly, helpful and encouraging, and the sessions with her prepared me well for group classes, while being a great workout by themselves!I only had the chance to join a couple group classes with Brian and they were great as well! Everyone is super nice and friendly, and Brian gave me extra attention being the newbie that I am, making sure I’m doing the exercises correctly, providing encouragement as well as alternative exercises when needed. The place is big andspacious and super clean! Looking forward to a successful journey at Boston CrossFit Iron&Grit!

I came for a couple drop in classes while visiting the area and I couldn’t recommend this gym more highly. Tina and Miguel are awesome trainers and despite just dropping by I feel like I learned something new. The gym is beautiful, big & sparkling clean. Looking forward to coming by again next time I’m in town!

I realized the importance of fitness later in my life, starting in earnest at age 45. I was introduced to CrossFit and have been committed to training regularly for the past 13 years. When I first discovered BIG in 2017 I knew right away this is a special place. The facility is spacious and well-equipped, but the secret sauce is Tina and her team of Coaches. They have created a real community around health and fitness, with a driven, positive vibe that drew me in and has sustained me since I joined. Coaches spend time getting to know each of us personally, adapting workouts as appropriate while celebrating our progress. I have been continually challenged and encouraged in pursuit of my goals, and am in the best shape of my life thanks to BIG. I’m proud to be a member of this community, and strongly recommend that anyone looking for a place to train come check it out.

Crossfit Boston Iron & Grit: Iron Row Class. This class has been awesome for me. As someone who has been doing Crossfit for the past 5 years, I can tell you that there are many things that I could work on and improve. One of my biggest weaknesses was that I was never a very strong rower. Well, the only way to improve is to push yourself and spend the time doing it, but the prospect of sitting on a rower for 45 to 60 minutes was not very appealing to me. So I started taking the Iron Row class to chip away at a known weakness and what a difference it has made. The programming is a great balance between rowing and basic Crossfit movements. The workouts are such that you get enough breaks to keep you motivated, but get the cardio push required to feel and see significant improvement. The workouts are challenging but scalable, endurance-driven (longer) but varied. It is a real calorie burner and is a really great blend of cardio and strength. I am a big fan of these workouts and I would recommend this class to anyone.

CrossFit Boston Iron & Grit is a gym where everyone is welcome - experienced, die-hard athlete, and newbie alike. The group workouts are setup so everyone can scale to a level that works for them. What really makes a difference is a culture where no matter what your conditioning level, everyone, not just the coaches, is encouraging and positive. Plus Tina, the owner, is super helpful, available and knowledgeable. If you are looking for a new place to workout with a community this is the place.

I have been going to CrossFit BIG for about a year now. I started at the gym about 4 months after having my daughter, and have had an excellent experience getting back into shape. I have been to several CrossFit gyms in Boston (and in other parts of the country), and this is one of my favorite boxes. The facilities are good (gym equipment, separate bathrooms/showers, individual cubbies for each athlete), parking is easy, and the owners have taken COVID precautions very seriously. All levels are welcomed and adjustments are easily made for top athletes and newbies alike. I have found it challenging to get motivated to do significant workouts on my own at home - BIG has made it much easier for me to get through COVID isolation. The gym has a friendly community atmosphere, but participating in the social aspect is not needed to feel included.

BIG is by far the best gym I’ve been part of. You’re truly joining a family of coaches that care more about your lifelong fitness and health goals, not just how much weight your lifting. They offer a sense of family within the gym community. I’ve met friends for life and even after moving 30 miles away from the city, I happily make the commute to start my days off right. Leave any reservation you may have about crossfit at the door, this group of coaches and members offers so much more! I’ve been a member for over 3 years and their commitment to continued growth in their members health is obvious.

People, I am or was close to 300lb guy and it scared me. My wife encouraged me to try CrossFit. She had joined in the past and we allowed ourselves to get so busy, we put ourselves last in our family, well at least I did fitness wise.

World class coaching, facility & people. I’ve trained here for the past year and love it. The coaches are all phenomenal and can tailor every workout to meet you where you’re at. Big shout out to Miguel, one of the best coaches I have ever met. His early morning classes and Olympic Lifting Sessions are excellent!

I can’t say enough about this gym. Amazing coaches, clean and very well maintained facility, great class offerings and schedules, and the best community of members anywhere! I’ve been doing CrossFit for over 5 years now - the only time I’ve stuck with any kind of routine my whole life - and much of that credit goes to CrossFit BIG, its owner, Tina, and her incredible team of coaches. Tina goes above and beyond by continually investing in her team and members - from new equipment, continuing education and training for the coaches, and giving back to the community and to causes near to her heart.
