EBF By George Foreman III

I live in Chicago and was in the Boston area on business. I tried the TRAIN360 class through ClassPass and LOVED it! Alex was a great instructor, and the tabata style rotations from boxing to weights to strength training was well structured. I would highly recommend this class and studio. The locker room was extremely nice with a steam room and sauna. I would definitely belong to this club if I lived in Boston!

I came here with a couple friends for the Unilocal!Fit Club event taught by George Foreman III himself! The class was a cycle of exercises that incorporated boxing for one hour. It was pretty exhausting but enjoyable.
Location:10−15 minute walk from the Red Line — Broadway MBTA Station.
First impressions:
The gym has a modern gritty allure with the tagline «Everybody Fights». Two boxing rings will stand center stage as different fitness rooms sprawl outwards containing: punching bags, cycles, trendmills, and other fitness equipment. The staff is friendly and will humor your desire to try on hand wraps and gloves. The ventilation is quite good and the gym lacked the musky macho odor expected from a bustling fitness center.
Locker room:
Automatic keycode entry lockers, shampoo, towels, razors, lotion, steam room and sauna, all complimentary. It’s a locker room.
The workout:
It was an intense cycle of boxing, rowing, squating, jumping, and various other activities that will leave you worn but satisfied. George Foreman III led the class, running around motivating us and correcting our form. A couple TV screen have timers on for rest and active periods and the surround sound speakers keep your mind off the burn.
Things I would change:
I wish there were more water fountains, there was only a water cooler for bottle refill.
Overall:
I enjoyed the event and the facilities. George Foreman III is great! Seriously consider this gym if you want to change up your regular routine with some BoxFit activities or if you’re looking for a gym in the area.

Great modern gym with a juice bar!
The locker room up stairs has towels, razors, and shampoo for showering. There was also a steam room and sauna that I wish I took advantage of when I was inside.
Had a great trainfit circuit session with George Foreman himself! I thoroughly enjoyed the different exercises we did during the course of the workout. By the end of the workout, I was completely exhausted– exactly what I wanted! If you live close by, I would definitely check out this gym!

Just so you know I do not have a gym membership but I do like to go to the Unilocal!Fit Club events in the belief to find that I will find that perfect workout regiment calling my name. The location is a 10 minute walk from the Broadway MBTA Station nestled between some repurposed modern warehouse apartments & shiny office building. There is a nearby parking garage & the gym offers parking validation for a few bucks off. A juicebar gives folks a change to fuel up & refuel before the walk down to the mail floor. You are greeted by a very high tech check-​in area that utilizes iPads & a laser scanner for members. As I walked into the main floor you are met with two boxing rings surrounded by various punching bags, ropes & weights. There is something different in every single corner of the space, even under the stairs to the locker rooms. Oh, the locker room are über modern & well appointed with good sized personal lockers. It reminded me of something from Starship Troopers without the unisex showers.
We were told to grab some wraps & a pair of boxing gloves then George Foreman III himself when though the workout in a frenzy of words & demonstrations. There was barely enough time to get our gloves on & we were off on an hour journey through various stations that specialized on certain muscles. Some were as basic as push ups, ropes, weights to more complex boxing dummies & rowing machines. It will make you sweat for sure & as long as you can get over the stink coming off the shared boxing gloves you will have a good time. George seems to truly beileves in the method & execution of his workout. It is tough but he is not a drill sargent rather a coach. I really enjoyed the music that bumped thoughout the facility & there are workout spaces that were quieter if that was your thing. It was a real motivator. Also while looking around I noticed that there were people of all ages, colors & sexes, back to my Starship Troopers reference. There was an older couple training in some Muay Thai in the ring.
Overall, this has been the closest I have ever come to wanting to sign up to a gym but give my muscles a few days to recover before I commit. Very modern, cool & open take on the gym. They really beileve that «Every Body Fights!»

Great workout! Took a Trainfiit class which kept you moving the entire time. The place is full of great energy and motivation. Staff are friendly and are willing to help. Place looks clean however the gloves did smell horrible! Definitely would come back.

Great place! You will immediately notice the space & energy upon walking in. Its hard to arrive at 5:30pm and see 3 classes starting and not be motivated by it. They have an amazing variety of classes — from boxing/​bags classes to bootcamp style classes, spin, yoga, and cardio based classes. I love the Roadfiit class — you cycle through the treadmill, bike and rowers so it is pure cardio. I also love Booty by Babrants which is another cardio based class — its like squats and various bodyweight movements choreographed to song. So you are dancing a lot!
Good:
— tons of class options and times. There is pretty much 2 – 3 classes going on all the time during morning & evening peak hours.
— great equipment & space
— nice locker rooms; they can get a bit untidy at peak times but overall solid. Self-​locking lockers, showers, towels, etc.
— front desk people will help with wraps & gloves if you are new to boxing
— they validate parking for Channel Center Garage ($ 3)
— they are on ClassPass and actually encourage you to stay after a class and use the gym
Not so good:
— the gloves are shared and I am not sure how often they are cleaned throughout the day. I know several times I have put my wrapped hands into gloves that were wet & smelled a bit. EEEK. The wraps are laundered but the gloves not so sure. If you box a lot it is probably worth buying your own gloves.
— Some classes depend a lot on the instructor. I have had some just so-​so Roadfiit and Trainfiit 360 classes. But I just push myself a little more or stay after class and run on the treadmill a bit for a little extra.
— Again the ladies locker room can be a little messy. I wish they would put a little more effort into cleanliness in there. Then again this is the only gym I know of that allows people to walk all over the gym floor with boots covered in snow so maybe people here just don’t mind a little grit. :-) I still would take my boots off at the front to go to the locker room, isn’t that just the courteous thing to do for people working out on the floor?!
— The range of classes is extensive which is great but it can be a little confusing going through them and deciding which one you want to take. Try a few, you’ll figure it out.
Overall this is an amazing place! I workout a lot so I feel like I get out what I put in here. I can push myself harder if I’m not being pushed enough by the instructor. And I LOVE that they allow ClassPass members to use the facility after classes. I get a lot done at this gym.

Love it here! I’m a class pass user and ALWAYS get my 3 classes a month in here. Class is so challenging but somehow goes by in the blink of an eye. Yay for TRAINFIIT360

Really open layout. Tons of class options. Only issue is I don’t live in Southie and it sucks having to find parking and pay for it (they validate at a garage for $ 3).
Good:
+ awesome, open layout
+ tons of class options
+ open locker room w/​showers, sauna
+ sometimes the front desk people are really helpful
+ it’s pretty cool George Foreman teaches classes (and really good ones)
+ pretty sure everyone is required to be good looking to be a member here
Bad:
— website is cool, but can be hard to navigate
— $$$ (I used ClassPass)
— class experience totally dependent on instructor (I enjoyed classes by Kelly, Chris, and George)
— sometimes the front desk people can’t be bothered by your questions?
— wish there was more focus on technique throughout classes.
If you have gloves and wraps, I’d recommend bringing them. They let you borrow gloves and wraps for classes, but it can be pretty nasty.

Great gym. Not a huge place but they have all the various equipment you could possibly want and enough open space that you can do any workout you would want here.
2 rings, plenty of bags and all in good shape (no lumpy bags patched up with duct tape — win!)
The trainers there seemed to have a solid boxing foundation so I wouldn’t expect any of that cardio box garbage teaching bad technique, although I didn’t take any classes. Just worked out on my own. I’m a former amateur champion, so take my word for it.
Also the facilities are good and clean. Nice sauna and steam room that actually get HOT unlike the ones you find at commercial strip mall fitness gyms. It’s the little things that I appreciate…

This gym deserves all the rave that it can get, its amazing. Not only is it beautiful and modern, the people that work here are super sweet and super fit. Even the members are gorgeous, I feel like I need to get in shape before I go there because everyone is ripped, but not in an over the top, look at me way, just a yep, I’m hot way. :)
I took a kicking class with Aliza and omfglutes it was great. She is a small, ball of energy that keeps the class going with great music, an amazing attitude, and abs to kill for. I highly recommend taking her class, its like a night club feel and within those 45 minutes I sweat more in that class than I do running on the treadmill for an hour. Its non-​stop, theres a 30 second break but still! It was a solid mix of kicking and jabbing.
You don’t need a lock, the lockers are code protected. Also, make sure to bring a water bottle because you will need it and comfortable shoes with padding.

3 classes in, I’m pretty sure Boxfiit 360 is my favorite class offered through Classpass. I’m so bummed that I’m limited to 3 classes a month — I’d love to try out the other classes (they have something like 100 a week??), but I love Boxfiit 360 so much I’m not willing to branch out!
I’m not sure what exactly the key difference between this gym and others that have similar formats is; but whatever it is, The Club has it down. I’ve never enjoyed another boxing/​Tabata-​like class more.

Such a great gym! A couple family members had been raving about The Club but I put off trying it out for a couple months because… well…it’s the gym. Now I regret not going sooner. I tried my first BoxFiit 360 class last week and now I’m hooked. The class had a lot of people but was really well organized so it didn’t feel too crowded. George taught the class and was phenomenal. I quickly grabbed a set of gloves that were not great for me and he found better ones so that I could get the best workout possible. The class was 45 minutes long but flew by — it was fun but hard. Overall a great workout. I’m now excited about going to the gym! And I will definitely be checking out other classes.
The locker rooms are really nice and have everything you could want and more. They have all the products you could need, hair dryers, towels, etc. Definitely recommend!

This gym is AMAZING, hands down best gym I’ve ever been to. When I first heard about it, I swung by to check it out and ended up taking their Boxfiit 360 class. As someone who would consider myself «fit” — I was shocked at how much I had to push myself in the class — to put it bluntly I was struggling (but also extremely delighted at the incredible workout I just got)! And that’s a good thing. No matter the fitness level, the classes are designed to make sure you challenge yourself. Anyways, I was hooked after that first class. This gym is almost three times the cost of my old gym. But no regrets here… it’s worth every penny. I feel stronger than I have ever felt… and it’s all because of George and the wonderful team he has. They make working out fun and they make sure you’re always pushing yourself. The locker rooms are great too!

Classpass led me to this gym a few weeks ago. I went to the boxfit class taught by the owner. I figured he had to be the best instructor if he was running the place. The workout was definitely intense, but I LOVED it. The class epitomizes HIIT, which I’m a big fan of. The instructor played good LOUD music too which is always appreciated! The gym was clean and both the attendees and staff members were warm and welcoming. I ended up going back to the same class in the evening last week and had the same great experience so my first trip appeared to be the norm rather than the exception. It’s up there in terms of price ($ 30/​class), but I think you actually get what you pay for here. When I’m not a broke entrepreneur and student I will be returning! Highly recommend checking this place out!

I’ve been going to The Club for a few weeks now, and I have to say, this place surpassed all of my expectations.
Of course, I expected the gym to be beautiful. And it is incredibly beautiful, state of the art, really well laid out. But I wasn’t so sure what to expect from the classes and the instructors. I thought the «everybody fights» mantra might just be a marketing ploy, and I thought that George might be an absentee owner– happy to stick his name on the door and then never show up to work with people.
After taking a bunch of classes, I can highly recommend it. EVERYBODY who goes there gets a killer workout and everyone is welcome. There are serious fighters training alongside people with 50+ lbs to lose, alongside people who are middle-​aged and above. The instructors take all of these sorts of people equally seriously, so no one feels like the odd-​man-​out. The BoxFiit360 class is an incredible, interval based strength and cardio workout that I would highly recommend to anyone, since you can tailor it to your own pace and level. George himself is super cool, in there every day working the front desk, teaching classes, and even helping people learn how to use wraps. He seems to really enjoy teaching class, and wants to make sure everyone is equipped for class. Hell, at the end of class yesterday, he was practically offering to give away gloves so that people who don’t already have their own wouldn’t have to use the sort of stinky gloves he puts out for people to use for free (not for a rental fee).

I consider myself somewhat of a gym rat (putting it nicely) and after hearing so many great things about the classes at this place, finally made the trek over to Channel Center Street for the BoxFiit 360 class with George Foreman III.
It was completely worth the trip — I loved the facility, the employees were so helpful and nice (including helping me register for class over email beforehand with the group I was bringing), and class was a WORKOUT.
BoxFiit is actually a really cool interval workout that includes boxing drills, as well as strength/​cardio drills using other equipment (i.e. bikes, TRX, kettlebells, weights). George was a great instructor, able to manage a large crowd doing all different exercises with ease — and still provide form correction and modifications without coming across as condescending (which is a skill).
Parking was actually much easier than I thought it would be — I got one of the «two hour» spots outside the parking garage (if you can’t find street parking, they validate for very reasonable rates at some of the local garages/​lots — check their website). Leave enough time to get there if you’re coming from downtown/​city center — as the traffic was horrid (I was glad I gave myself extra time to get there because I’m neurotic like that).
I am excited to try other classes here — I only wish it was more conveniently located for me so I could take class more often! :)

Came here for the trial class at 11:00am on a Sunday. I think I need to give it another shot maybe but I thought it was a great work out. The instruction was good – George Forman taught the class and he was funny and motivating and clearly had good rapport with the regulars but its very strange to give people corrections while the music is blasting, you are trying to get your 45 min work out in.
The good:
+great play list. basically like going to Middlesex on Friday night
+gorgeous, beautiful space with ample parking and an ideal location in seaport/​south boston
+nice people. easy check in process, motivating vibe for sure.
+not terribly pricey and they have a wide variety of classes like yoga, spinning, boxing etc.
The bad:
–not really sure why everybody needs to fight. my apartment got robbed in the South End and i am pretty sure i would never ever fight that person, even if i had gone to the george forman club diligently. i suppose there is a larger metaphor for fighting for the body you want/​mind and body connection, however it seems a little silly seeing as every person here probably works a desk job and their greatest fight is getting to the front of the line @ Sweet Green on their lunch break.
A-​OK!

I came here for the first time this week with ClassPass, I thought they wouldn’t give me great service since I was not an actual member of their gym, but I was definitely wrong. I was a little nervous since it had been a while since I took a boxing class, but the facility and its employee’s were amazing. After I checked in they walked me to the locker room, explained everything, how to wrap my hands where to go for class, they were super helpful! The gym itself is gorgeous, super open and modern. The class was HARD but awesome. I figured only a 30 minute class (Bags and Booty) couldn’t be that difficult, but boy was I wrong. It was a challenge, but never too much and the instructor and her music were great. I will definitely be coming back here again. Also parking is a breeze with the Channel Center garage right next door.

$ 100 REQUIRED orientation fee
$ 150 unlimited everything/​month

I went to my first class at The Club this past weekend after it was recommended by a woman I met (who also was on ClassPass) that said to me «it’s not a scary boxing gym, it’s women like you and me in the classes, our friends» and I was sold to give it a shot.
The first thing I noticed was how helpful and friendly the staff was when I walked in. I was given a quick tour and shown how to operate their lockers (which are top-​notch, spa quality lockers!) and where everything was located (including water fountains!)
The second thing I noticed was how clean and SAFE all their equipment is. This is huge for me, and many of my friends as well. Additionally, one of the other trainers helped me wrap my hands for the class and was incredibly nice and helpful about it. I have weak wrist support, so having the hand wraps on made the hard movements supported on my wrists.
Third, the class started (Box Fiit 360) and I was so impressed with the mix, it was about ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ men and women, some in amazing «fighting shape» and others who were just normal! Which was great because it can be very intimidating going to a class that everyone is super, serious and jacked up… George taught the class himself and was a great instructor, focusing in on form, explaining the exercises before we did the circuit, a little bit of stretching, squats, lunges and yoga movements to warm up. Stretching is SO important to me and I really appreciate classes that take the time to do correct stretching.
At the end of class George encouraged everyone to meet their partner and connect with others who were there. That was so nice because so many luxury gyms and studios (and this is certainly a luxury gym) are not a close knit community. I met other women who were chatty and helpful, George checked in after to hear how I felt about my first class. It felt personal, which is rare!
Lastly, the class kicked my butt. Not so much that I swore never to return, but that afternoon I felt my glutes and quads tightening up from the tough workout. I’ll be back again next week and I’m bringing friends!

The Club has changed the way I feel about working out! I have never been able to say that I look forward to the part of the day when I get to work out until now. I started at the club as one of the first 500, you couldn’t ask for friendlier trainers or community. I have been to so many gyms where no one wants to talk to anyone or help another member out. This is totally different at The Club! I don’t know what it is about the culture, but it definitely inspires camaraderie.
The classes well laid out and varied that there is most definitely something for everyone here. The instructors are always aware and willing to help anyone out who may have an injury and needs a modification. Unlike other trainers at other gyms, I feel completely confident that trainers at the club will never overtrain or do anything that will lead to injury, however you will get a kick A** workout every time!
The facility itself is really well done for an architectural and design standpoint. The amenities and locker rooms are alway immaculate and well kept. The equipment is well placed overlooking the two rings, so there is never a dull workout.
Going to the Club is really the highlight of my day!
