NEFF is the best gym I've been to in years! All the trainers are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. They work with a wide variety of clients including athletes, like myself. Coach Luke, who is an experienced college athlete, really helped me achieve my goals. You will not find coaches more dedicated and invested in their clients than the ones at NEFF. :)

Professional and knowledgeable. Best for a customized program to work towards personal fitness/strength training goals - no matter what beginning physical ability. Great for those just starting out, as well as for those who want to take their current program to a next level. Facility is clean, safe and conveniently located. Reasonable prices. Definitely give them a try!

There are plenty of stately gyms and qualified trainers, but New England Functional Fitness is more than that. Personally, what makes this place unique and worth going to are the people at the gym, namely the trainers. Not only are they incredibly knowledgeable and can communicate well, but they are also very approachable and fun to be around.Immediately when you walk in, you notice how well equipped, clean, and impressive the facility is. It's well lit, well spaced out, and very organized. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Upon my first arrival, Dr. Anup Sharma welcomed me in and knew my name. He is warm, kind, personable, and very obviously passionate and knowledgeable about his profession. It was so easy to feel comfortable in a new space where I knew no one because of how welcoming Anup is. Every time I see him, he is so kind to me, and I can see why everyone loves him.This kindness and welcoming energy has been a common theme amongst all the trainers. Matt always has such an incredible, positive energy that is palpable and immediately puts you at ease. I've never worked one on one with him, but he always says hi to me and strikes up a conversation that makes me feel welcome and cherished. He has such an incredible talent for making you feel immediately at home and a part of the gym. It is clear how enthusiastic Matt is about the gym and the people who come to it, and his cheerful energy is infectious and puts you in a good mood from the second you walk in.I work primarily with Preston, and his knowledge and personality make each session both challenging and rewarding. He gives thorough feedback, and also understands that I probably won't remember everything, so I don't have to feel overwhelmed. I appreciate so much the knowledge shared with me and the patience and realistic expectations of me implementing that knowledge. Every session, I learn something new, without fail. I don't just learn how to perform movements, but also why. Preston is patient, responsive, and non-judgmental. I feel fully comfortable communicating my goals, my needs, and my state of being for the day. Preston is so good at respecting my needs and limits while also challenging me and encouraging me. It is rare to find the right balance of encouragement and understanding from a trainer, and I feel lucky to have found that in Preston.I have a deep seated fear of the gym, working out, or trying anything new. Preston makes me feel comfortable enough to communicate my fears, and he is so kind to work with me through the fears instead of just dismissing it. The entire gym has an atmosphere that puts me at ease in a way that no other gym has done so. I can go there knowing I am getting the best training and having a good laugh while doing so. 10/10 would recommend.

I love working out at NEFF! I was in a bad car accident & started with the Bridge program, which was recommended to me following my time at ATI. Since completing that program, I have done individual sessions and even got my mom to join me. I wish my schedule allowed me to come more often, but I try to get in twice a week. I love that I am able to build my strength & ensure I am not going to hurt myself with coaches that monitor me. They are all knowledgeable and supportive! I highly recommend NEFF :)

I am thrilled with my experience at NEFF! The space is very open with lots of room to move around; I hate feeling crowded by people or things. At least when I am here for my sessions, there are very few other people around which extends the pandemic safety I feel being here (they're always wiping stuff down, hand-sanitizing, and masking as regulations require, too!). The place is immaculate, equipment is top notch, the trainers are super friendly and knowledgeable, and I highly value the 1:1 attention I get with my private sessions. Trainers know to mix up the workouts a lot, which both keeps things interesting and supports physical progress. I particularly appreciate the trainers' professional knowledge about maximizing efficiency in individual exercises combined with knowing just when and by how much to increase weight/resistance to keep the challenge building.

I met Anup and Mat 3 years ago after my left elbow surgery. I also have two back surgeries from previous years!I thought weight lifting and weight training for me was over.Training with Anup for the last two years has been so rewarding.Anup knows the anatomy of the body so well that he can isolate muscle work lolYes I hated when I am doing itI am loving the result now.I highly recommend training at NEF.

New England Functional Fitness is an amazing place with talented trainers. I have been working with Preston to improve a "click" and pain in my knee that resulted from an injury and a surgery a while back. In a short amount of time, Preston has helped me regain the strength in my hamstrings, glutes, hips and quads, thus strengthening the muscles around the knee. In 30-minute time blocks he assigns and supervises me doing a variety of weight and resistance exercises, tailoring and adding new ones as needed. It's been a revelation that these short meetings one-on-one can work wonders! I am so happy (and relieved) that I finally found a place that works for me, and a qualified trainer who is dedicated to helping me achieve my goals. I highly recommend Preston and New England Functional Fitness.

If you love fitness don’t look any further. You’ll have excellent results with Dr Anup Sharma, Coach Matt & the rest of the staff. Everyone treats you like you are #1. They always take the time to evaluate you, and work with you toward achieving your goals. I had a very positive experience and know you will too.

I entered NE Functional Fitness in March 2021 via their Bridge (from PT) Program after completing 4 months of PT next door at ATI for a herniated L4 disk and a torn meniscus. Fast forward to July 26, 2022, nearly 18 months later. I have been completely pain free (back and knee) for more than a year, and twenty pounds lighter with much more lean muscle mass and a reduced BMI. The team at NEFF deserve much of the credit for my transformation. Natalie and Preston and the rest of their team have guided me through countless 2 and 3 per week functional strength training sessions with dedication, expertise, caring, humor, and tirelessness. My core strength, endurance and balance are the best I’ve ever enjoyed. I am treated as a member of the NEFF family. I give my highest recommendation to NEFF!!

I have going here since they opened and have been so impressed with the staff and clean facility. Once you go you become part of the family. They customize every aspect of your fitness needs and work with you to accomplish your goals. They are so knowledgeable about working through any injuries or weakness and getting you passed these setbacks. The staff are professional and well trained in their craft. The work they do with you always makes a difference in your fitness and wellness needs. You leave feeling great, stronger and accomplished. They are always willing to adjust workouts depending on how you are feeling while keeping you accountable. Matt has worked with me through injures and healing and I cannot say enough about his support and help to get me back on track.

Not enough I can say about the crew over at NEFF, their knowledgeable and entertaining staff mixed with an incredible state of the art gym have something for any demographic.. Whether you are a top level athlete or a senior trying to get back on the golf course this facility has the culture and the equipment for you. As a licensed physical therapist I would recommend this place to all of my patients who are looking to continue their recovery and advance their overall physical potential.

Highly recommend New England Functional Fitness if you’re looking for personalized, professional and knowledgeable fitness training! I worked with Anup, and he was able to tailor movements, stretches and workouts within the limitations of my current lower back injuries. He listened to my feedback on what worked for my body and created a personalized workout regimen that’s easy to follow and will provide desired results. He was thorough with his assessment and able to also educate me on proper technique to avoid further injuries. Would absolutely recommend this fitness facility and Anup if you have the chance to work with him!
