As a member and a CPT, I canβt say enough about how much I value the quality of the coaching at Velocity. Every program is customized to each individual, which makes all the difference. The trainers know how to push you to your next level both physically and mentally. As someone who trains others I know how important it is to also be trained by great trainers, and this team delivers every single time!

I recently joined Velocity Sports Performance because I was looking for individualized workouts with a personal trainer that specializes in strength training. I have been really impressed how Coach Jesse has been able to provide personal training in a group setting and truly individualizes each person's workout based on their needs and what works for them. Jesse works with you on building your strength training at a good pace for you but also pushes you to the next level when he sees you can do more. Doing the training in a small group is great because you have your own space to work in and get to socialize a little too. I am glad I have invested in my health and working with the great trainers at Velocity Sports Performance. If you are in the market for a great workout, I would highly recommend Velocity Sports Performance!!

Velocity has been an excellent experience for my 12- and 14-year-old. The program focuses on proper exercise techniques, including stretching and weight training, which help establish skills to reduce the risk of injuries in the future. The instructors are knowledgeable and engaging, and the group workouts foster motivation and teamwork. Velocity is helping my children build healthy habits and a positive lifestyle from a young age. My only suggestion would be to offer more class options to accommodate different schedules.

Iβm so glad I signed up to check out Velocity Fitness. I wasnβt sure exactly what I wanted or needed but this was my third place to check out and Iβm so happy with my experience. The trial was great and I didnβt feel pressured to commit. You get the one on one attention of a personal trainer but get to be with a welcoming positive group of people. The trainers help with goal setting and they give you individualized plans. I have an old knee injury and they have really tailored a great program and consistently check in during the workout to ensure I feel good and have the correct form. They donβt yell at you well except when you walk in they do yell hello π

My daughter is a college athlete and went to Velocity over the summer to be ready for her season. The team of trainers was FANTASTIC. Not only about the workout- but helping her with wellness in a holistic approach. They were responsive in the gym and out with scheduling and provide a relaxed yet structured environment for training. I highly recommend them for individual or small group athlete training. Truly the way to go to help your athlete prepare for on and off the field training! This was well worth the money .

I joined in January and I have seen a noticeable difference in my body. My goal is to build and maintain muscle as I am in my 50βs and know how important this is for health especially at this age. Jess is awesome and between his motivation, expertise and the sense of community I gained significant muscle and have lost fat , feel stronger and have had fun doing itππͺ

Velocity offers a great individualized program especially for young teens who aren't "team sports" kids. Jesse as a trainer has high expectations, yet also uses a bit of fun to get kids motivated. My son really enjoyed training with him. I appreciated the flexibility of buying 10 pack strength sessions vs paying a monthly membership. I wish we lived about 10-15 min closer to Velocity!

Hard to believe it's been 11 years since I joined Velocity. The individualized strength training program assisted by coach Jesse or coach Franklin is awesome! Losing weight, keeping it off, adding muscle and learning a thing or two about nutrition all contribute to my overall wellness. Could not be happier!!

My teen athletes absolutely love the sports performance class at Velocity in Norwood. Over the past year, my athletes have gained strength, speed, and confidence. They have developed a love for the gym and have learned to train both safely and efficiently. Trainers Jesse and Franklin are both positive role models, great motivators, and nice people.

Class sessions are fun and the environment is really friendly and supportive. I'm close to finishing my first year of membership and have built a workout consistency that I never had in the past. I would definitely recommend!

I've been impressed with the coaching my 14-year-old has received from Coach Franklin at Velocity Sports Performance Norwood. Coach Franklin's background in rehabilitation and functional strength coaching have been invaluable. He provides personalized attention, focusing on enhancing strength, speed, and agility while emphasizing injury prevention. His enthusiasm and dedication create a supportive environment that motivates young athletes to reach their full potential. I highly recommend Coach Franklin or any other Coaches at Velocity for any parent seeking top-notch coaching for their child.

I've been a member of Velocity SPorts Performance for 1.5 years. I love the way in whcih my workouts are tailor made for me keeping my individual goals in mind. The coaches are great at pivoting a particular workout in the event that I'm having any aches and pains that may make the planned workout not appropriate for the day. In addition the coaching staff the other members are welcoming and incredibly supportive. VSP's small class size makes it easy to get to know others and receive the attention we need.

We had a great experience with Velocity. We tried a couple of fitness training programs for teens in the area but my daughter preferred the trainers and program at Velocity. She said her performance improved greatly and she did sports for years. Our only regret that we didnβt find this program sooner when she was still actively pursuing a sport

Velocity Strength and Performance is a great place to be if you are a novice or even just getting started with strength training. The individual personal training classes are small and the amazing coaches are able to check in and assess everyone and adjust the workout when needed. The overall atmosphere, encouragement, and motivational vibes from them as well as the other members make it very welcoming!

These guys are unbelievable, I never enjoyed going to gym previously, previously just visit gym, do my routine and come back- normal and boring activities- I was doing for several years. Last year, I joined Velocity for 6 months, Jesse/Frank/Chris- they made everyday entertaining at Velocity, now I thoroughly enjoy visiting gym. My 6 months at Velocity was so good, these guys are totally result oriented professionals- I have seen my result upfront, lost few pounds, but more than that - I can now run on street without knee pain(there is pain, but its much much better and controllable), I can do proper exercises in the gym on my own and my body is much better. It's really really worth to be in the Velocity, and dont forget how great human being of these guys are. If anyone wants to become physically better(=whether reducing body weight or becoming stronger- strong knees etc), join Velocity- you will never regret, there will be pain, but gain is way above. Thanks Jesse/Frank/Chris. I will come back for few months- every year.

Iβve been attending sessions at Velocity for about half a year now. Iβve lost nearly 40 lbs so far, and everyday physical activities have never been easier. Chris, Jesse, and Franklin have guided me well on this journey, not only through physical education, but also healthy nutritional habits and time management. Iβm very grateful that I found this place. I feel very comfortable around those in the group classes. No matter who you are, albeit your age, gender, or weight, youβll be treated well here.

So if you want to have a killer workout have Jesseβs class Monday and Wednesday and for that extra cardio Saturdays are a must!!

Been going to Velocity for over 7 years now. Before Velocity I had never gone to a gym or played any sports growing up, I was quite literally unconditioned. I have learned so much about fitness and exercise than I ever thought possible. Over the years we have done some organized events as a group such as 5K's and even a couple spartan races. I have made some of the most everlasting friendships through being a member at Velocity, I consider them family. The coaching and knowledge you will get from this place is incomparable to any other gym. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed :-)

Velocity has been a great place for me to grow as an athlete. I started at velocity as a high school athlete and Velocity has helped transform me into the college athlete I am today. I started there with not much knowledge about the gym and since velocity has helped me get stronger, faster, and conditioned. The coaches at velocity are great and make the gym a safe and fun space. I would recommend Velocity for anyone it doesnβt matter if your an athlete or someone who has never been to the gym. Velocity will help you reach your goals.

My son started out at Velocity after his first football season with the rest of the team. I wanted this to be more of a learning how to lift weights, form correction, speed enhancement, than just a lift-to-get-big gym.
It was exactly what I hoped for and more! Velocity gives my son the tools to lift properly. How to get what you need most from not only weight-training, but by adding other methods of exercise to gain strength, endurance, speed, and everything else he needs as an athlete.
The staff is very responsive and great with the kids! 100% recommend for your athlete!

I love working out here!! I do the adult group classes and itβs a great group of people! The group sizes arenβt huge so you get more coaching time than you would typically, which really helps so that you donβt hurt yourself. Coach Jesse is the best -heβs especially great at modifying things if you have an existing injury and he brings a lot of energy to the classes. I 100% recommend velocity

Velocity fitness is truly a unique performance gym and experience.
Everyone from the management, to the coaches, to your fellow members, are very supportive and caring. Velocity has built a very effective (and clean) gym, coupled with a great program and excellent support from the coaches. And almost more importantly, it's an incredible community to be a part of. This is a special place!
The workouts vary depending on the day, so it's not repetitive....which is a huge plus.
You will really feel great during and after each session - Both mentally and physically!
It is not at all uncommon for members' workouts to be tailored and modified - since everyone is different and has varying limitations or injuries.
They absolutely understand, respect, and appreciate everyones individuality.
As a person who has struggled with the gym most of my life, this gym/fitness program is an absolute diamond in the rough.
I look forward to being there each session! And I certainly cannot say that about other gym experiences I have had.
They go above and beyond in so many ways for their members!
When you give it a shot, you will not be disappointed.

Our son Liam has been training with Coach Kelsey for several months now and we cannot believe the strides he has already made. Not a natural athlete, we started training with Kelsey to increase his endurance and build confidence. Not only have we seen incredible progress in these regards, he has also improved in agility and has grown to really like working out. Kelsey makes training fun and interesting for him and challenges him in a way that makes him want to work harder and surpass his goals. Everyone at Velocity (even other members!) is so warm, welcoming and encouraging and we are so happy we found them and grateful for all they are doing to help our son be his best self.

We have two boys (12 & 14) going to Velocity daily. Not only have we noticed them both getting stronger and better understanding how their bodies work, we have also noticed their confidence increasing and the relationship that they have with each other blossoming. The coaches are great and our boys speak highly of everyone. What I love most is that both boys always know βwhyβ an exercise is important and can explain the importance of doing the exercise correctly. Their time at Velocity is setting them up for success as they enter high school and more competitive sports.

My daughter plays high school and club soccer and needed to add weight and strength if she is to stay on her current development path. I spoke with Chris at velocity about her goals as well as some specific issues that she had. Not only was Chris and the staff eager to get her where she wanted to be physically, but they were just as eager to making her personal experience as positive as it can be. Over the last 2 months, she has shown huge physical improvement in strength speed and weight gain. Most importantly, because of the culture set by the team, she looks forward to the sessions and feels like she is a part of something there. Thank you Chris and the entire staff for your dedication and interest in your members.

I have enjoyed a productive training experience at Velocity Norwood. Extremely professional staff. Very knowledgeable about how to work with adults - weight training, cardio, nutrition and diet. The classes are fun but challenging and rewarding. I have historically used the big box gyms and was skeptical of classes, but the results with Velocity have for exceeded my expectations.
My son also has been going to Velocity since middle school and loves it. He was reluctant at first but now, as a high school sophomore, he goes as often as his schedule allows - 4-5x weekly. It has greatly improved his performance in sports and confidence overall.
Highly recommend!
