Strength Training in West Roxbury, Boston
After 40 you lose 3–5% of muscle mass per decade without resistance training. StrengthCamp at THE F.I.T.T. PIT is coached lifting that puts that loss in reverse — heavy work for bodies that have lived. First class is free.
West Roxbury runs along Centre Street, with the Stony Brook Reservation forming the southern boundary it shares with Hyde Park. From Centre Street, the studio is a 10–15 minute drive.

— 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 built for adults 40+ — 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.
