I attended Kendall Square CrossFit for about a year and couldn’t recommend it more highly. From day one, the community was incredibly welcoming — friendly members, supportive coaches, and a no-ego environment that made it easy to show up and work hard.

The workouts consistently pushed me beyond what I’d do on my own, and the range of experience in each class meant there was always someone nearby to chase or pace with. The coaches strike a great balance between being laid-back and ensuring good form and safety, which helped me build strength and confidence without injury.

I recently moved out of Boston and will genuinely miss this place. If you’re looking for a great CrossFit gym in the Cambridge area — whether you’re brand new or experienced — KSCF is the spot!

I completed my on-ramp this week with coach Mario. I must say he is the absolute best. If my experience with him is what I have to look forward to at this box, I cannot wait! After having two kids back to back and developing diastasis recti, resulting in a weak core; I absolutely feared working out and trying CrossFit again. I pushed myself to tried a box in Charlestown in 2021 and my fear was affirmed. I was intimidated immediately and did not return. Almost 2 years later I found this box and emailed Jared. Jared was very professional and prompt via email. He explained their process and set up my on ramp with coach Mario. It has been the absolute best decision I’ve made in starting my journey back to a healthy me. In my first session Mario sensed my nervousness and addressed it in the kindest manner. I shared my fear and worries. He explained the importance of safety and meeting everyone where they are along with what the on ramp session are for. He is knowledgeable and does a great job explaining and demonstrating all the fundamental crossfit movements. He quickly modified everything while challenging and encouraging me. He made even the hardest workouts enjoyable and fun! On my last session coach Kiera joined us while shadowing him. She was very helpful to me and well informed. I’m so grateful Coach Mario was my reintroduction to CrossFit. Everyone I’ve come across so far has been very chill. This box is such a great vibe! I am thrilled about this journey for myself and trust that becoming a part of this amazing community will certainly help me achieve all my fitness goals! 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend this box to everyone and more importantly to anyone who doesn’t know what to do in a regular gym, like myself.

Dropped in here for a few days while visiting Boston. Jared is an extremely knowledgeable coach and gave me a lot of useful pointers on my handstand push-ups, among other things. I love that you also get access to the rest of the athletic club with the drop in fee!

Love the community here! I've been a member here for 3 years now, and started as a beginner to lifting in general. The coaches are knowledgeable, and their feedback has been incredibly helpful to me as I learn to learn/correct my form in some of the exercises. Classes usually have warm up, strength and WOD portions, the programming is well balanced throughout the week. Saturdays workouts are extra spicy and are meant to crush your soul. Parking is easy, especially before 9AM or after 6PM since there's garage parking. You also get access to CAC gyms which is a great plus! Would recommend 10/10

When I asked trainer Mariette Martinez a question yesterday she made a scene in front of a group of people by yelling 25 times “I don’t care”. I tried to handle it by reporting it to her manager Jared Jalbert and his manger Carla Schneckenburger but they refused to take any action and Carla wouldn’t even respond to me. I doubt this happens very much but if it does know you are on your own to handle it in the moment and it is not a safe or professional space. When I said to Mariette this is the most unprofessional thing I have experienced she said there is a first for everything, laughed, and walked away because she is proud of her behavior and knows there are no consequences for treating people poorly here.

After Brick CrossFit closed in Downtown, Kendall Square CrossFit was my next destination. I heard they had a great program; a sense of community, WOD selections, and coaches. Come to find out, that was absolutely true. I attended twice a week and each day I was met with a fun group of individuals, kind/professional coaches, and leaving with a sense of accomplishment.

My biggest fear about potentially going to Kendall Square Crossfit at first was basically the size of the facility -- it being too small. However, maybe it was the size that helped form greater connections with fellow workout mates. Either way the size of the facility did not matter because everything else was amazing!

If you seek connection, community, and a sense of accomplishment this is a really great place to find that. Highly recommended, check out some time.

I've been regularly getting to KSCF for more than 6 months at this point and it's all because of the coaches and community! The coaches are smart and dedicated to the participants. The attendees are welcoming and motivating - there's always someone around to give you the little push you need (or maybe it's just me that needs it!). Get this spot in your workout routine asap!

I've been coming for a bit more than a year and I love it. Both coaches and the community are great. Classes have less than 10 people which allows you to get good feedback from the coaches. I would definitely recommend it.

I dropped in here while visiting Boston on a business trip. Theresea coached the 5:15 PM class, she was a fantastic coach. Super friendly and led a great class,very knowledgeable too.

It's a nice little facility, very clean and well equipped. You also get access to the cambridge athletics club after your WOD if you'd like, as well as showers, lockers, and towels. I'd highly recommend this gym to any passerbyers looking for a box to drop into!

I went there 5 times during a 2 weeks stay in Cambridge. The box is in the Cambridge Athletic Club so when ever you book a session you have access to the club and get fresh towels. The trainers are knowledgeable and friendly and the workouts have been challenging and great fun. I would definitely go again and can only recommend to go there if you search for a great box in Cambridge or Boston.
