I've been training at Athlete Factory with Coach Cleary for about 6 months now, and I can honestly say he's been a huge source of inspiration and motivation in my fitness journey. He pushes me to get stronger every session, not just physically but mentally too. I've made real progress thanks to his guidance, and I always leave feeling empowered and supported. Even on the days he's not there, the other trainers are always so helpful and supportive, creating the same positive and encouraging environment. It really feels like a team that cares about your growth and well-being. I'm so grateful to be training here and can't recommend them enough to anyone at any age looking to transform their body and mindset!

Kevin Cleary and Athlete Factory has changed my life. The personal plan that was created perfectly addressed my needs and allowed me to truly get in shape and achieve the health goals I had for myself. In addition, the app allows me to remain committed to my program even when I am traveling. If you really want to get in shape and want a plan that is executable, realistic, and gets amazing results, contact Kevin and the athlete factory.

Coach Cleary helped accelerate my weight loss unlike any other program I have done. Not only have I lost 30lbs since starting only a few months ago, but I am seeing great progress with muscle tone.

The coaches are all wonderful to work with and extremely helpful setting up weights and making sure your form is correct. I haven’t injured myself once since starting and I hadn’t worked out much since having three kids. I feel incredible.

I am 66 years old and joined The Athlete Factory in February 2023. My reason for doing so was because my mother is in assisted living and uses a rollator to get around. Her generation was not proactive with their health and I was determined not to follow that lifestyle.

When I saw the ad on Facebook for 1 free week, I thought, I had nothing to lose. That week is what hooked me and I have never looked back.

So here I went on my journey to weight training. I knew I needed someone to push and hold me accountable or training would be short-lived. Personnel training is what I needed. When you're paying for a trainer, you don’t miss a session. Judy Dubois is my trainer who challenges and encourages me and I don’t know what I would do without her. I have also have had Kevin Cleary, the equally tough owner (I say this with a smile on my face) oversee my training at times. Without them, I would not have continued for over a year. This is a small friendly gym, where you know everyone and support one another. In the past year, I have lost 14 lbs., improved my body composition and balance, gained strength and built muscle.

Call me crazy, but I enjoy working out three times a week and don’t like to miss a session.

A small, intimate gym is the way to go. Nice people to work out with, a great personnel trainer and the owner, Kevin Cleary, the nicest, most personable man you could meet who believes in everyone’s success.

KUDOS for everything you do to help others Kevin.

Thank you!!!

Today I completed by 30th workout at The Athlete Factory in Newtown!

As someone who has struggled with back injuries and more, and most recently with my broken foot. I found that I was afraid to do so many things. Always holding back and being careful.

In the last 11 weeks I have gained strength and stability, but most importantly confidence! I've always loved a hard workout, and Coach Kevin creates awesome plans that challenge me, keep me engaged and excited to come back.

I love the atmosphere and camaraderie. The coaches all make sure you are using correct form and challenging yourself appropriately. It is exactly what I needed!!

If you are looking for something new to try in the new year, contact Kevin! You won't regret it =)

My wife and I recently joined Athlete Factory a few months ago and we are thoroughly enjoying our experience. Being in our 60+, and retired, we find the place and the coaches to be very professional and very attentive to our needs/pace and allow us to do our best without pushing......while at the same time challenging us to do better everyday. We only wish we should have joined a lot sooner. Their pricing plans and online scheduling app gives us the flexibility to plan the sessions when convenient, without impacting our travel plans......as we do travel a lot :-). It is a great place and we love it !

After a 25-year hiatus, I recently returned to horseback riding with the goal of becoming a competitive dressage rider. Because I have osteopenia which affects bone porosity and strength and makes fractures possible, my doctor is against this pursuit. Strength training is, however, a proven means to combating osteopenia. Under Kevin’s expert guidance, in less than a year, my bone density has improved significantly. That fact, along with my ever-increasing strength and stamina has made me a more effective and confidant competitor.

As a coach, Kevin is demanding, yet unlike many trainers I’ve known, Kevin has been not only genuinely supportive of my goals, but also wholly respectful of my limitations. I always feel safe with him.

A devoted father, accomplished musician and talented writer, Kevin’s many interests make working out with him, not just a task, but a pleasure. His gym is well-organized and immaculate. Although I mostly train with Kevin, I’ve also had numerous opportunities to interact with his staff. They are all equally personable and caring.

Coach Cleary’s passion for, and knowledge of, the history and practice of fitness training is quite simply unmatched.

I look forward to each and every session!

The Athlete Factory has a welcoming & accepting atmosphere, provides individualized attention, has very knowledgeable & helpful staff & owner (Kevin) that listen to you, care about you, support you, and make every effort to help you reach your goals with many diverse customized workouts. I am an extremely satisfied customer that will NOT be going back to regular run-of-the-mill gyms where you are nothing but a number. I feel more fit, healthy and empowered now than I did as a teenager!

I was A little skeptical at first did not want to go to a gym where people were built up on steroids and showing off. This is absolutely not what I found. It’s a kind, supportive, happy environment where everyone just wants to be healthier and live a better quality of life while here. Kevin has been very gentle and kind and I’ve seen big differences in myself and feel wonderful. I highly highly recommend.

50 something female... Not an athlete, nor experienced in physical exercise.

Realizing I was getting closer and closer to retirement, wanting to be able to travel was and actively play with future grandkids, and feeling soft in the middle, I began searching for a place to learn functional exercise and gain confidence in building strength and balance in an environment that offered education, encouragement and personalized training. I stumbled upon Coach Cleary and the Athlete Factory when searching options in the area. 3 weeks in and couldn't be more pleased with my find!

The Athlete Factory offers me the small group personalized training I need and straight forward instruction both in the app and in person. Can't wait to see the results after my 6 week intro sessions are complete.

Last September I decided to take advantage of a 1-week free trial at Athlete Factory that was being offered by Coach Cleary. I came in three times that week, got hooked, and have been regularly training there for three mornings a week since. Just recently I completed my third 6-week workout plan.

Have I seen any results? You bet!

Training for three days a week, combined with a smarter eating plan, has led to a weight drop of 21 pounds (and counting). That’s 21 pounds of FAT – measuring body composition, my fat% has decreased while my muscle mass increased.

I feel so much stronger, I sleep better, and continue to increase my loads each time I come in. Overall I feel better than I have in years. And I have to say, although this wasn’t an objective, I can see the results in the mirror.

I started this program mainly because I was struggling to play with my super-energetic grandkids and I wanted to change that. I now have the strength to handle all the “pop-pop pick me up!” requests. I’ve had desk jobs my entire career, which have created various long-term issues over the years. This training is slowly but surely working out many of the kinks.

I admit that, at 60, I initially questioned taking on a weight training program; I hadn’t done any weight lifting since I played football in high school (you do the math – that’s a long time ago!). No lie, it was a tough start, but after just a couple of weeks I actually started looking forward to training days and am always trying to get to the next level on the exercises.

Here’s the thing: I think I would have felt intimidated had I decided to join a gym. Tough place to get started as an out of shape “senior”. But the atmosphere at Athlete Factory is very welcoming and the team knows how to work with beginners of any age. I’ve been in the facility with others of my age group as well as high school athletes. Everyone’s super-supportive and I really like working within the small group settings. That lets Kevin and Judy keep a close eye on my technique and be sure I’m exercising properly. They know me. You won’t get that at the gym.

In many ways I’m proof positive that no time is too late, and no starting capability is too small. Just stick with it, keep to a regular schedule, and the benefits will accrue. Yes, Athlete Factory trains elite athletes – some of them now in the pros. But Coach Cleary and his staff are equally adept at training seniors just starting out. Give them a shot, you won’t regret it.

As a woman in her 60’s I have always loved working out but after I had spine and neck surgery I needed a new plan to stay fit and strong and I found it at the Athlete Factory. After 3 months I’m the strongest I’ve ever been and I don’t ever look back - only going forward and getting stronger with 3 workouts a week with a personal trainer who inspires but also makes me reach deeper to do more.

I’ve been training with both Kevin and Suzanne for about 6 months and I haven’t felt this strong and this good about myself in years! They are committed to helping you achieve your goals and do it in a fun and non-intimidating way... yet keep you accountable. When I first came to the Athletic Factory, I struggled with pain in my shoulder. Both Kevin and Suzanne were able to build a workout around this injury which allowed me to safely strengthen my shoulder and I no longer have any pain. I really enjoy the small group atmosphere, it’s the best of both worlds I get personalized/individual attention but I’m doing it with friends who motive and cheer me on. I look forward to those 3 days/week and I NEVER said that about going to the gym, lol! I can’t say enough about the Athletic Factory. Kevin really knows his stuff!

Love working out at the Athlete Factory and in a small group setting with old friends and new.

Let’s face it ....you can have all the equipment at home you need, but will you actually pick up the weights that have been sitting on the fireplace for years while watching tv?

Come workout hard at the Athlete Factory and you will not be disappointed. Your motivation will rise!! You will love Kevin and Suzanne.

I'm a woman in my 50'S and the best thing I ever did was start training at the Athlete Factory. Kevin and his staff are awesome. In a small group atmosphere, they patiently took me from ground zero to the best shape I've been in for the last 20 years. Very conscious of prior injuries and how to build strength around them. And they are fun and easy going! Check it out!
