GISFW on Comm Ave is the best! The biz model is brilliant as it provides cost-effective personal attention from professionals. The Comm Ave team tailors each program to your personal needs, so every workout is very efficient. Its convenient location has easy free parking so it's hassle-free. I see this GISFW as more than a gym: it's a club where members take their workouts seriously, yet there's a warm camaraderie that greatly enhances getting 'back' into shape. It's a key part of my day!

I will add my praises here! Ive been at a lot of gyms over the years, with and without a trainer and I love GISFW! Being in a group of 4 is the perfect amount of attention. Its convenient, easy and fun and going there has become a great part of my life. I highly recommend it!

Exercising at GISFW on Comm. Ave. has been wonderful. I finally found the place that works for me and it will for you too! it is a great combination of convenience, nice people, great staff, individual attention and encouragement. Unlike a crowded gym, you can focus on the tasks at hand, benefit from the teaching tips and set in place a template that fits easily into one's work week. On my recent vacation, I was in such "great shape" that I found myself thanking GISFW as I pedaled my bike!

Great place to work out. I have always been in good cardiovascular shape but working out at GISFW has made me strong and my body defined. I took 6 months off because I thought I could do it on my own. After gaining 10 lbs I am back and after only a few weeks I have already lost almost half the weight.

Get in Shape For Women is a new concept in fitness training. A small group, up to 4 women are exercising with a personal trainer. The combination of weight training with cardio have been a winning combination to my fitness. The trainers are great, with a personal touch, and the right push to do the best you can.
Kim, the manager is fantastic and built such a strong team, the motivate you to get involved in all aspects of the program.
Come and try it. You will be one of us in no time.

Newton Center GISFW has changed my life. I now enjoy working out and following a nutrition plan. The trainers and manager/owner are all fantastic! Each in their own way are support,helpful, and very skilled at what they do. I was hesitant to join but it was the best decision I could have made for myself. It is the first time that I have ever followed the same program for more than two months. The staff remembers and accommodates any limitations but also challenges all of us to get to our personal best. It is hard work but worth all the sweat and sore muscles. :) The facility is great and never any parking problems. JOIN!!!!!!

I LOVE GISFW in Newton Centre! All of the trainers are consistant and dependible and know me and my capabilities and weaknesses. They push me to do my best on an individual level. Kim, the manager, is also a huge cheer leader for us and is constantly introducing new recipes, new ideas, new challenges, and even new products to help us with our exercise routine and our food choices. This is the first time I have been faitful to a gym and an exercise program. I am going on my third year there!

Get In Shape on Commonwealth in Newton is a great facility. I have been a member for 3 years and have found the staff to be really supportive and sensitive to each individual's needs and difficulties. One of the trainers, Liz, even helped me overcome a shoulder problem that several cortisone shots hadn't been able to cure with a simple targeted exercise/stretch. It is a pleasure to work out there and to confer with the skilled manager on nutritional issues.

GISFW on Comm Ave in Newton is great. Each of their trainers are very knowledgeable and are able to create a program for your needs. They are all very motivating and the owner, Kim Williams, is always there for a positive comment. Kim has had field trips to Whole Foods to teach us how to shop for healthier foods, she has had a seminar on Fruit/Vegetable Juicers and is planning a group to walk for Breast Cancer. Kim believes in all of us and loves what she is doing.

Since other members have already praised the staff and the program, let me chime in that parking is NEVER a problem. I have been a member for a year, and have achieved flexibility, strength, and steady weight loss through incremental changes in diet, without ever feeling deprived. The staff remembers and accommodates any limitations, but also challenges me to get to my personal best. Women of many ages and stages of fitness will feel welcome to the sisterhood of this studio.

This is a GREAT place. One of the things I love about it is the group of women I work out with. The trainers and the owner are wonderful. I've been going here for 3 1/2 year and love it. I am stronger – which was one of my goals. The trainers are amazing, they are supportive and enthusiastic and they know what they are doing. I’ve read a few reviews about other places that speak of cookie cutter training and I don’t find that at all.

*****

Excellent training and excellent model of getting healthy and fit. I have been a member for two years now and love coming to the studio. The trainers and owner are there to support you and work with you and the other members help cheer you on! If you want to reach your health, fitness, and weight loss goals-there is no better place to go.

*****

This is the best fitness experience I have ever had. GISFW Newton Centre is staffed by experienced, helpful, motivating trainers who love what they do and share their enthusisam for fitness in a contagious way. In addition to losing weight and feeling healthier, I actually enjoy working out here. Try it, you'll like it!
