— Where members come from

Strength Training for Dorchester residents

Our Dorchester members come from across the neighborhood — Codman Square, Lower Mills, Ashmont, Fields Corner, Savin Hill. Many find us because the coached, programmed format isn't on offer at the Planet Fitness or Crunch on the Dorchester corridor.

— FAQ

Common questions

I've never lifted before. Is StrengthCamp for beginners?

Yes. The coach scales the weight and the movement to your level. The first class is free, and most newcomers leave more confident in the squat rack than they thought they would.

How is this different from CrossFit?

We're not a CrossFit affiliate. Our programming is periodized, joint-conscious, and progressive. Different room, different goals.

Will I get bigger? I just want to be lean.

Strength training preserves and builds muscle, which raises your resting metabolic rate. That's how you get leaner without living on the cardio deck. "Big" doesn't happen by accident.

What about my back / knees / shoulders?

Day-one movement assessment catches the limitations. Programs are written around them, not in spite of them.
