When I first signed up for Gymit I didn't know exactly what I was doing when it came to lifting. I had lost 145lbs on my own but was clueless on how to gain strength and build muscle. I decided to sign up with a trainer- Josh Horn. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. He's friendly and genuinely cares about his clients. Josh will push you past what you think your limits are because he knows you can do more. By the time I got to my last training session, I had learned about correct form, how to use the equipment, and how to push myself out of my comfort zone. I would recommend anyone who is interested in training to sign up and work with Josh. It was one of the best decisions I've made during my fitness journey and I would absolutely do it again. Thanks for everything, Josh!-Amanda

I used to really like this place until having a ridiculous experience with someone at the front desk. They refused to let me work out and would not offer any solutions.

This gym gave me high hopes at first, but very quickly disappointed me. The facility is clean modern and up to date, but the layout and size are the downside. The club that use to be there utilized both floors of the building witch offered a great amount of space to work out no matter how busy it got, but with Gum It, that’s not the case. They offer a large amount of free weights cramped into such a small area that you constantly have to look at for people, they offer a minuscule amount of machines, and the prices just don’t seem appropriate for the quality of work out you get. I regret signing up at this club, as it just can’t get a quality work at at anytime.2022 Update: I have winced tried this gun again as it seemed all the gyms in the area have gone away. I will still say the the quality of gym equipment is great it still is very much over crowded. I have gone there multiple times and simple left minutes after showing up as there is now way to get a work out in. Unless you want to stand around waiting for ever piece of equipment you want to use this gym is not for you.

I did the 5 personal training sessions package with Kosta at the GymIt in Watertown and he was awesome! Really friendly and knowledgeable guy who was able to show me compound exercises that truly catered to my personal overall health goals, not just generic isolated muscle building. He also did a great job of explaining the science/physiology behind the essential workout principals in a way that I could understand so I feel more informed on how to choose workouts on my own. After one month, I've already started seeing real progress and I'm feeling super motivated to keep going!

The Watertown location used to be less crowded but they have signed up too many new members it makes it difficult to find a bench during peak times. Even off peak can be difficult. On the plus side they continuously make improvements and add new equipment. The staff is nice and it's very clean and organized. My only other complaint is the lockers and shower area is much colder than the workout area which isn't the best on cold days. Overall this is a decent gym.

Clean, good equipment and not a lot of muscle heads! Hahaha- 2 locations and fairly cheap membership! Great choice if you live in the Watertown/ Brighton / Allston / Brookline- Comm Ave area!
