Crossfit Newton in Waltham

Dropped into CFN twice this week and have nothing but positive feelings about this place. Classic CrossFit class format with stretching, strength, and a metcon. Worked with coaches Alayna and Jack. Both couldn’t be more friendly and attentive to the athletes/community. Witnessed them assist adapt the workouts for newer athletes as well as critique the more seasoned gym-goers. CFN also has a very welcoming community which always enhances the overall fitness experience. Plenty of room, clean facility, and amazing people. Would strongly recommend for anyone living in the area looking for fun yet challenging workouts or dropping in for a couple of days. Thanks for having me, I’ll be back.

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.

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.

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 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’ve been at CFN for 10+ years. All my previous attempts to create a fitness habit failed. This one succeeded, first because the workouts produce results, and second because the community of people makes classes fun. The gym is the best part of my day and I can’t wait to get there. The team of coaches is excellent and the owner, Gil, is a real pro. They adapt workouts to each person’s level. Together they create a really positive, fun and supportive environment.

The friendliest CrossFit gym you'll ever find. Every coach is great and Gil is an amazing person. I'm grateful that I know them!
