Steel Fox Fitness

Fantastic experience: Rita and all the coaches at Steel Fox are awesome to work with and super supportive of you achieving your goals. They make you feel welcome, comfortable and will accommodate to where you are when you join and push you to do your personal best. You see results and feel great!

Fantastic experience: This gym is a “hidden gem” - tucked away out of sight but super close to Lexington and Burlington. I don’t think you’ll find another gym in this area with this kind of fitness programming, coaches or mojo.

Fantastic experience: Rita is an excellent trainer. She listens and quickly gets you the results you want. The small group classes are fun and a great workout. You get lots of 1-on-1 attention in a group setting.

Fantastic experience: I loved the energy, the attention to form, and of course the ability to measure metrics and trends. The app is like an accountability partner, and the people in class are friendly and motivated. So glad I joined and always look forward to my next class!

Fantastic experience: Rita and the team at Steel are the best. They are very skilled, friendly and have helped me achieve my fitness/nutritional goals. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I joined SteelFox over a year ago because I prefer group exercise classes, but was looking for a program where I really could progress with squats, deadlifts, etc. The classes are exactly what I was looking for and it improved later on with their cyclical program that allowed me to track and measure progression. I started out not being able to deadlift 135 and have made it all the way to 160 with consistency and encouragement from trainers. The coaches always pushed me and I liked that they were quick to call me out when I was slacking! On those days I would get my best workouts and it’s why I thrive in these group classes. I always felt challenged and genuinely enjoyed attending every morning. This gym is perfect for those who want to choose between strength or high intensity workouts, and be able to track their progress. The coaches will really get to know your strengths and areas of improvement and give great individual attention.

Fantastic experience: I started to participate in steel fox 1 year ago, since the beginning everyone was super receptive and friendly to me, I love training with them. The program is really good we have circuit that is more cardio exercises and strength training, I always alternated between them. I already started to see a few toned muscles and I am definitely more stronger than when I began. I loved when they alternated between the coaches, I learned a lot from Ryan and Megan they rock. Rita… she's the best coach ever, she’s supportive and always pushes you to your goals, she does the above and beyond for hers costumers ❤️

Fantastic experience: I love this gym!! The classes are amazing and will push you out of your comfort zone to get you to your strongest self. Each class offers something different which means changing up the routine and making your body grow and adapt. The coaches are encouraging and knowledgeable and will help you with modifications if/when needed. Can’t say enough positive things about this gym and all the coaches.

Fantastic experience: The people at Steel Fox know what they are doing and can help you no matter what your current fitness level. They are knowledgeable about injuries and limitations and can make anyone stronger and more fit. My results (middle age woman) are fabulous after a relatively short time. Bottom line, improving your health and wellbeing is the Steel Fox team's goal. Definitely check it out! (I've been doing remote for 9 months - they will work with your comfort level).

Fantastic experience: I have been going here for quite some time. Really great programming. New sets of exercises every day will never get boring and you see yourself progressing constantly. Coaches always helping with the form and scaling. Coach Rita went out and beyond to adjust to new COVID rules and to accomodate wishes of members to make it safe and comfortable for everyone. This is the best gym I ever been to.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Rita is the best! She’s truly committed to each member and their goals/needs. With just the right amount of tough love, knowledge and fun, she runs a great gym!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Highly recommend, Coach Rita is amazing, helps you set and maintain your goals, providing support with nutrition. They work with your schedule, feel very safe during COVID. Staff and members are great and really welcoming environment.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism Rita is a very caring and compassionate trainer. She really works with you to understand your goals and helps you get there. She's fantastic!

Fantastic experience: No free pizza Fridays, no bagel breakfasts, no frills, and no judgment. Steel Fox is the classic "box" with free weights, class instruction, and open gym hours. I come in to work on the stuff that I need to work on during open gym, and then I come for classes when I'm not on my bike or on the water. The staff let me do my own thing when I want to, and they provide instruction and classes when I want to do that. During class, I can vary how hard I want to work out by the scaling of weights. When I first joined, I did light weights. Each month, I can add a little more.

Fantastic experience: Such a phenomenal environment where you can experience quality training alongside lively and friendly members. The structure of the classes are set up in such a way that you will leave feeling tired yet accomplished; the coaches push you just the extra step. This gym is now more than ever the perfect place to go as there is ample space to feel safe while working out and the class sizes allow for more than six feet of separation and also allow for everyone to use equipment without having to share for the duration of the class.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. At 47 Rita has gotten me in the best shape of my life.

Fantastic experience: A personalized approach that is tailored right for you. Attention to your needs. Anything to make you strong and healthy. I strongly recommend Steel Fox!

Fantastic experience: I've never felt more comfortable at a gym, period. Starting from day one, Coach Rita listened to my goals, offered her expertise and went out of her way to make sure I was staying on track. If you are serious about improving your body and overall health, this is the place for you. Try a class, it's free! You won't regret it (I promise)

Fantastic experience: I was new to crossfit and wasn't sure what to expect, but I am extremely happy that I decided to join Steel Fox. I needed a lot of attention due to my bad posture, and despite being in larger classes Rita still found time to address my needs. Unfortunately, I moved out of Massachusetts, but I'm certain that next time I'm in town I will be stopping by the gym! Thanks so much to Rita and the team!

Fantastic experience: This gym is much more than a Crossfit gym. Rita, head coach and owner, offers personalized training and nutritional programming as well Crossfit programming. There is a small group, strength and conditioning program that she offers as well. So if Crossfit is not your thing or need you need to work on mobility and strength, SteelFox has you covered. The coaches at the gym are awesome; friendly, knowledgeable and focused, making sure your technique is proper and taking you to the next level. Swing by and see for yourself! What a great community to be part of.

Fantastic experience: So I just started CrossFit a little over 5 weeks ago and have already seen incredible improvements. The coaches are all extremely supportive and help you perfect your form to make sure you are getting the most out of every workout. It is a real community and Coach Rita is an amazing coach that helps every individual work towards reaching their full potential. All around, joining CrossFit has enabled me to get the best out of my workouts and given me the confidence to finish everything I start. Thanks Steel-Fox coaches and community!!!

Fantastic experience: Steel Fox Crossfit is the BEST in the area, the coaching, programming are first rate! I have been doing cross-fit for over 10 years and truly found a home at Steel Fox- the community is amazing and very supportive! If you are not a traditional "cross-fitter" still come check out Steel Fox as they other programs like "Steel Fox" which is less barbell based but still an amazing workout. Coach Rita is caring and will help you reach your goals !

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for a year now, and can highly recommend Steelfox to anyone who wants to get in shape and be healthy. No matter what your current condition, these trainers will have a program for you. This is the most fun, efficient way to work out!

Fantastic experience: In three months at steel fox I’ve gotten stronger and feel better and more fit than I ever have. I do the steel fit classes and find them challenging but fun. Rita is a great coach- encouraging, makes sure that you are doing the workout correctly, and pushes you beyond what you think you are capable of. I highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place! Great trainers and programs to suit all fitness levels. Every day is a different workout, which is challenging and never gets boring. Can’t wait to be back in fall! Rita’s passion, hard work and entrepreneurship is very inspiring to me personally. She works very hard and truly loves helping people achieve their goals.

Fantastic experience: I was nervous starting Steel Fit (small group classes) at Steel Fox but it's been an amazing learning experience. I was new to weight lifting and trying to get back into shape but the trainers (Rita & Ryan) are so great at explaining everything and finding the right weights to challenge you. All the other members of the class have been welcoming and encouraging. You're just competing with yourself so no one is judging what you can and can't do. I would recommend it to anyone who needs that extra attention to get them to commit to something like I do.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! I've been going to Steelfox for a little over a year now and could not be happier with my choice. It's the perfect gym if you work in the Burlington area. I am able to come in the mornings before work and get a good workout in to start my day. Great coaches and great members!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at Steel Fox for 2 years now and it is the best part of my day! It's a fantastic community and the coaches are really the best. I only take the crossfit classes so I cannot speak to the steel fit classes, but the programming of the classes is great. The programming is smart, safe, and has pushed me to be my best.

Fantastic experience: When I walked into Steel Fox with my friends, I immediately knew something was different than other gyms. If you knew me before my journey, you would know my favorite donation of choice every year was to a gym membership I rarely used. I was "too tired" or wasn't feeling motivated since the gym communities I was apart of before were very independent and I was left to figure out how to do workouts on my own. Hearing nothing but positive things about CrossFit, seeing amazing progress and being encouraged to try out Steel Fox from my friend got me interested in seriously considering to finally follow through my every year New Years resolution: To lose weight. Starting my journey at Steel-Fit I felt welcomed and felt heard, and never felt alone. The smaller classes helped me get over my insecurities of working out in front of other people and Rita helped me set goals and shared her nutrition knowledge so that I can set myself up for success. Looking back now, signing up for my first three-month membership changed my life for the better and I am excited to see where I am months from now. With the constant coaching and support I receive every class, and the nutrition knowledge I gained, I feel like I've made significant progress and have noticed differences in my everyday life. The SteelFit community is so encouraging and welcoming and I couldn't be more happy to be apart of it! Rita and her team do amazing work and have given me a space that has changed my life.

Fantastic experience: A small gym that makes a big difference. Steel Fox offers Crossfit, private training, open gym, and Steel Fit - a small group training program that's changed my life and health for the better. When I joined 2 years ago, I was recovering from a lingering neck injury (car accident) and all around lack of fitness. I could barely get through a 1-hr session. All the trainers, especially Rita, kept my form safe and strong. The esprit de corps of the group workout kept me motivated. Rita encourages a smart, healthy nutrition plan. I've lost 25 lbs and gained muscle - something that's supposedly impossible for women over 45. Steel Fox has a diverse and friendly membership, from beginners to hard core competitors. This gym is the real deal.

Fantastic experience: Steel Fox has amazing members, encouraging coaches, and a great facility. The member community has kept me here for nearly 3 years. They are welcoming to drop ins, and uplift each other during workouts. When I travel, and do a WOD alone in a hotel gym, my performance drops because I don't have the friendly social camraderie. The community is what keeps me coming, and has a large part in my enormous performance improvements. If you're looking for an overly "bro-y" culture, look elsewhere. This is mostly 30-40 year olds who are bored of more vanilla type workouts. The coaches are encouraging and fun. Somehow, they bring energy even at 5:30am. They help make sure your form is on point, and are always helping you to get stronger, leaner, & faster. The facility has showers, is clean, and has a ton of equipment. This enables the coaches to add fun tasks to the programing including tire flips, parallette bar work, peg boards, and rope climbing. In my time at Steel Fox I've gotten much stronger (+ 90 lbs squat), faster (-2:10 mile time), and leaner (-25 lbs, -8% body fat).

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Coach Rita and her staff at Steel Fox Crossfit. I’ve been doing the Steel Fit program for about a year now and love the workouts. The staff are knowledgeable and very supportive. Not only do they offer crossfit and Steel Fit classes they offer nutrition.programs as well.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Steel Fox for 18 months and I love it. I do the small-group Steel Fit classes twice a week. It's a great, high-intensity, but highly supportive strength training workout to supplement the running and biking I do other days. I've gotten much stronger and fitter than I ever did training on my own. Rita and her team are the best in the business!

Fantastic experience: I began Crossfit 3 years ago and have never turned back. The coaches are great and the gym is spacious and very well equipped. I would highly recommend this hidden gem.

Fantastic experience: These coaches are top notch. After being out of the crossfit game for a bit, I joined Steel Fox looking to get back into shape. They've helped me not only do this, but reach new goals as well, and even hit some PRs. Furthermore, Steel Fox is a positive and fun community with great people. Definitely glad I decided to join.

Fantastic experience: I started taking crossfit classes at Steelfox last August and I haven't looked back. I recently moved to a different town further from Burlington but I make my schedule work so that I can stay at this gym. I've learned so much and I'm stronger and fitter than I've ever been! And to top it off, the coaches are amazing!

Fantastic experience: Steelfox offers two very effective programs for strength and fitness. Having been a member for coming up three years, I participate in both CrossFit and the more tailored, smaller-class SteelFit training and can recommend both without hesitation. Owner Rita and all the coaches work to ensure that the workouts vary widely, thus maintaining interest and efficiency, are always organized and explained. They also are very open to the need to as necessary modify one's workout, e.g. to deal with a strain or prevent injury. The allied nutrition programs are also an important feature. Having participated once and lost 15lb, I have since maintained a very stable weight. All in all, for me as a 'senior' who believes in the importance and benefits of fitness, this a very worthwhile investment in my health, giving me the ability to go out and tackle all those other strenuous activities that are available in New England!

Fantastic experience: steel fit - small group fitness classes with indivdualized attention, nutrition counseling and setting overall health goals with the structure to implement the plan. Rita ( and all the coaches) are dedicated and present with a genuine desire for clients to transform and improve fitness and health. I love it here!

Fantastic experience: From my initial meeting with Rita it was evident that this place was and is the place to be. Her intricate knowledge of fitness and the fact that she is the embodiment of what she preaches makes it very easy to get on board. The atmosphere of this gym is unique, it has a CrossFit community look but is such an open and welcoming place that it’s almost confusing. Once you start here you won’t go elsewhere.

Fantastic experience: Rita is an inspiring and hard working coach. She is wonderful at tailoring a workout to your needs, but also pushes you when she knows you can do more. I loved taking advantage of her Steel Fit classes where we had a small group that worked hard and supported one another. I have definitely learned a lot about my body and what it can do and feel stronger and healthier as a result of these classes and with Rita's support.

Fantastic experience: I'm a regular at Steel Fox since Dec 2016. Lost over 50 pounds and got into a best shape of my life. The gym is clean and functional - I prefer it to big gyms like BSC and Lifetime, where you inevitably have to wait for your turn and could forget about doing supersets efficiently. Rita is doing a great job as a manager and as a coach - go see her if you want to get results!

Fantastic experience: I attended my first cross fit class ever here and it was amazing! I honestly could not be more happy with my experience! I was super nervous but from the beginning Shea and the trainer Nikki were able to calm my nerves and Nikki was super friendly and helpful throughout the class. She walked me through everything. Not to mention it was an amazing workout! Everyone needs to give it a try!

Fantastic experience: There's a LOT to love about this gym! I firmly believe that CrossFit Coaches Create Cultures, and so huge props to Rita for the overall great vibe I experienced at Steel Fox. The crew of a dozen or so at the 7 a.m. I dropped-in for welcomed me with open arms, and as the class progressed I became more and more impressed with the degree to which everyone was so mutually supportive. Rita circulated continuously, offering advice and encouragement to all, and as people finished their own workouts, their focus seamlessly mirrored Rita's -- being supportive and encouraging to those still working. The gym itself is immaculate, and well-equipped with all the necessary CF toys. Beyond that, each of the two washrooms has a shower, and each room has a stack of fresh, plush towels --- further proof of how highly the athletes are regarded. Final thought is that few CF boxes are as easy to get to as is Steel Fox. From 95/128, it's onto the Middlesex Turnpike and then less than two minutes to the gym. Final-final thought is the motto/slogan for Steel Fox: Be Strong, Be Clever. YES!

Fantastic experience: This is an excellent gym in every way! It has lots of space to move around, good equipment (well-taken care of and not falling apart), and wonderful coaching. Coaches Rita and Dana are the best -- they are very attentive in making sure you are doing the movements correctly which has helped me set lots of new PRs since I started going here. The classes are small, and the people are friendly and encouraging. This place is great if you are just starting Crossfit or if you've been doing WODs for a while. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Rita and Melissa are wonderful coaches!! I have been afraid to do lunges 3 years post knee surgery. These two amazing coaches have me lunging again which has been a fitness goal of mine for quite some time! Rita is very knowledgeable and motivating. Her programming is by far, the best! Thank you Rita and Melissa, you are the best!!!!! I highly recommend this box!

Fantastic experience: I've worked out at many CrossFit gyms around MA & FL. Steel Fox is great and in my top 3 for many reasons. I've learned so much from Rita on technique and help my mobility. I would highly recommend Steel Fox for every beginner and seasoned athlete. Keep up the good work

Fantastic experience: I have been attending Steel Fox for just over a month now for personal training and absolutely LOVE it here! He trainers are friendly and full of energy! The gym is clean, organized, and more equipment that I have ever seen in one gym. Every workout is different each time keeping me on my feet and to learn new things every time. It is a good mix of both male and female clientele so I felt very comfortable using this gym to work out. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND checking it out!

Fantastic experience: I have started off as a first timer with no idea what crossfit was and since then I have fallen in love with crossfit and one of the reasons is the coaches they have at Steelfox. They are very encouraging and always helps you in accomplishing your goals. The facility is very good and clean and the community is welcoming.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Steel Fox is a great community that is very welcoming to all. Rita is extremely passionate gym owner. She and the coaches will always make sure you are performing movements correctly to prevent injury and work with you to achieve any goals you may have. She is also very knowledgeable in nutrition so you can see results! I recommend this gym to people who want to try Crossfit as well as veterans. The facility is clean, has new equipment, plenty of space and showers. If you are looking for a positive community, full of people who are getting better everyday- this gym is for you! Take advantage of the free trial class today!

Fantastic experience: I had the hardest time finding time to go to the gym and stick with it. I started going to Steelfox in July 2015 and was quickly in love and found myself going 4-5 days a week! I was impressed and motivated by Rita and her staff. I love the small class sizes and the special attention she is able to give to each member. Absolutely the best gym!!!

Fantastic experience: Rita's gym is not your average crossfit gym. There is lots of room, lots of equipment and there are 2 spacious and clean bathrooms with showers, towels and soap (so you can clean up and go back to work if necessary). The place has a nice "woman's touch". But most importantly Rita is an outstanding fitness AND nutrition coach. I have been working out with Rita for almost 2 years and I know it sounds cliche, but I feel as though I am in the best shape of my life thanks to her. Join this place, you will love it. If you commit to her program, it will change your life.

Fantastic experience: I first started crossfit a little more than a year ago. I went intermittently because I never felt challenged or encouraged until I started with Rita at steel fox last fall. Since then I've seen myself change and develop in ways I never imagined. I've had 50+ pound gains in all of my lifts, and I now have the ability to complete movements I never thought I would be able to and it is all thanks to Rita and steel fox crossfit. If you're willing to put in the time and want to see yourself become a greater athlete, or just get in better shape, this is the place to be. It's amazing to be a part of a community that cares and works hard together to accomplish their goals, with the coaches that care and are able to get you there.
