Extremely welcoming. its nice to see all fitness levels catered to with phenomenal support from staff and members. Huge space with plenty of equipment. Don't be shy on this gym, you wont regret it.

very professional place. nice people

Steve Dion is simply an amazing personal trainer. He has been customizing workouts for me over the past 3 years that increased my strength, stamina, and flexibility despite limitations caused by spine surgery and diabetic neuropathy. At 65, I’m still in the game thanks to Steve. Highest recommendation.

Really nice facility with a great staff!

Inviting atmosphere, dedicated coaches - who work with you at every fitness level - and amazing owners. Love training here!

My fiance and I have dropped into a crossfit gym basically every time we've traveled. I can confidently say crossfit ironspider is perhaps the best gym we've been to. I went when I was visiting my friend 6 months ago and we both went twice this past weekend. The programming is awesome, the coaches superb (especially Dr. Dion who is incredibly knowledgeable of all things exercise science, in fact he teaches exercise science), the community welcoming (my jump rope came undone in the middle of a wod, coach ran to get me a new one but one of the athletes let me share hers during the workout), and the gym is spacious. If we lived in the area we would be members in a heartbeat. Will need to settle with coming every time we're in the area. Less

I started at B&S for bootcamp last year after a long stretch (think decades) without coached workouts. After a variety of failed attempts to create some structure for myself, I didn't really know what I needed to get back into some sort of fitness routine. I decided to give B&S a try since I can walk there from my home. From the moment I arrived for my first workout, I experienced what everyone describes: inclusive and supportive community, challenging workouts, and great coaching. The vibe is motivating and positive, and the workouts are fun (even/especially when you’re not sure you will make it through them) and varied. Joining B&S has reminded me how good it feels and how motivating it can be to push yourself within the context of community, and they give you the tools to do just that. This place is a true gem.

Cannot speak highly enough of the team at CFIS! The quality of the coaching is second to none, and there is an incredible sense of community.

I started working out with B&S Fitness in October 2007 to help my conditioning for tennis; I'm an avid player.

They create a welcoming atmosphere for all of their clients; there's a genuine sense of community. No joke, I started talking to one of my neighbors not because we saw each other in our parking lot or at the mailbox, but because we saw each other at B&S. Less

Highly recommend this CrossFit place! 🏋️‍♂️ The coaches here are truly top-notch professionals who invest the time to guide you through every move, ensuring proper technique and safety. 📚 Moreover, the friendly and supportive atmosphere fosters wonderful friendships among athletes. Overall, a fantastic place to challenge yourself, learn, and be a part of a supportive fitness community!

Very supportive coaches and community. I’ve been coming here for over a year, and knew nothing about CrossFit. Highly recommend for newbies and advance athletes.

This is such a wonderful, welcoming community. I’ve been a member for 8 months and so glad I joined. The coaches are very knowledgeable and can work with you regardless of your level of fitness or knowledge of weight training. I’ve learned so much and have never felt better! Thank you to Coach Mar, Lou, Steve, Brandi, Betsy and Jackie! You guys are the best!

Great workouts and great community. Steve and Brandi have fostered a terrific environment that can tailor to the advanced athlete as well as beginners. Come one come all!

CrossFit IronSpider is a great place to workout. Steve and Brandi have a top notch coaching staff and the programming is for everyone. CFIS community has been a blast to workout with and I look forward to heading in as often as I can. Scale for Life!!

Awesome, caring Coaches. Very welcoming but you get your a$$ handed to you! Lots of coaching on correct form and tips on how to improve. Great for all Fitness abilities and ages!

Outstanding gym! The coaches are absolutely awesome, the programming is top notch, and there’s a great sense of community. I would recommend this gym to anybody; seasoned CrossFitter to somebody looking to get started. As soon as you walk through the doors, you’ll know you made the right choice!

Brandi and Steve, and all the coaches at CrossFit IronSpider, Salem, MA, make Cross Fit doable for the masses. Regardless of age, I'm 60, they can and will 'scale' each workout to meet your specific individual goals. The classes are amazing, always different and challenging.

My husband and I have been coming here for 2 years and have nothing but great things to say! The owners and coaches are very knowledgeable, welcoming, and extremely friendly. Everyone makes you feel like part of the community from day one. There are always scaled options to fit everyone’s needs and if you need something a bit more customized due to injury or other needs, the coach can always accommodate and recommend what to do. With being pregnant over the last year, the coaches have been great and very attentive to my needs as I looked to still be active through my pregnancy and postpartum. The programming is top notch, you will never leave thinking you didn’t get a good workout in! If you are thinking of joining, do it! Less

This is a great gym. The coaches are top notch, the programming is great (and adaptable), the facilities and equipment are excellent, and it’s all held together by an outstanding community. Really glad I joined, highly recommend.

A great gym with an amazing community, kudos to Brandi and Steve for building and fostering a positive and engaging environment. We love the results we are seeing with the programming!

It doesn't matter how old you are, you are welcomed by the community. Less

It’s not just a gym, it’s a community of coaches and athletes that support each other in and out of the gym! Brandi and Steve have created an environment of encouragement which gives everyone a sense of belonging!!!

I would give 10 stars if I could. I've been a member of Ironspider for almost 6 years. I joined assuming it would be a new place to get a workout in for a while (having tried lots of different styles of fitness in recent years). I had NO idea that it would end up being my second home. Most people join a fitness facility for equipment and in some cases that may include workout programming and an instructor/coach. First, Steve's programming is hands down the best you can get. And I've heard this from countless people who have had experience in a variety of other crossfit gyms. Second, the coaching is top notch. Not only are the coaches knowledgeable and attentive but you're goals are their goals. They wholeheartedly care about every person in that facility. And they know exactly how to individualize programming so it is accessible for any individual that walks through the doors regardless of age, ability or limitation. But the best part of the deal is what you don't know you're even getting when you start. The community! A group of people who are going to support you through your struggles and your successes. Good days & bad. Who greet you with welcoming hellos and depart with "see you tomorrows!" (even when the workout is tough and makes you questions if you'll come back haha). I truly believe that the key to achieving success with any goal is community support & accountability and you just can't find this level of community anywhere else. I have this huge family of people and I feel so grateful every time I walk in the gym. I went for the fitness, stayed for the family. Less

CrossFit Iron Spider has the best coaches and community I have ever been a part of. Workouts are always adjusted to your fitness level and coaches are always available to help you with how exactly to do certain exercises/movements. Such a motivating environment to better yourself.

I have been a member of CrossFit Iron Spider for almost 5 years. It is such an awesome place to workout because of the extremely knowledgeable coaching staff, the sense of community and the facility itself. It a great place to get your achieve your fitness goals!

I cannot say enough great things about CrossFit Iron Spider! The owners are welcoming and extremely knowledgeable, the coaches are beautiful and encouraging, and the patrons that come here are incredibly supportive. Spacious facility, tons of equipment, there really isn’t much else you could ask for at a gym!

If you want to experience a fun, supportive, uplifting + solid community, encompassing every age, ethnicity + pronoun under the sun train with us! Can’t wait to meet you☺️

Awesome workouts and even better people! 10/10!

I can't say enough about this family-owned business, the attentive, down-to-earth coaches who work there and the welcoming, inspiring members. I have never regretted going to an Ironspider class.

CrossFit IronSpider is such a fantastic fitness community! The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and welcoming of everyone!

They cater for all ages and fitness levels very well, with awesome facilities, programming and scaling options. The coaches are all knowledgeable, welcoming and supportive. The thing that makes it stand out the most for me compared to other gyms is the consistently non judgmental, very positive atmosphere. There are no “cliques” here and whether your goals are to be the next CrossFit Games athlete or you want to just get a good, fun, well coached workout in, everyone is catered for. Less

I decided to join Crossfit Ironspider in 2015 and can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I could have made. The owners Steve and Brandi are top notch, along with their coaching staff, and programming. I walk into this gym every morning and it feels like home. If you’re ever looking to join or drop into a CrossFit box and you’re Salem, this is the place.

Great way to stay fit with your partner - classes are co-ed and totally scalable, modifiable to any level of strength. Best part is you have a coach there 100% of the time correcting your form and cheering you on! My husband and I are so glad we discovered Iron Spider!

I went back to Iron Spider Marblehead in November with a different mindset then what I had in the past … I love the workouts .. the challenge and most importantly the community and the new friends I have made …

I’ve been a member of CFIS for 2 years now and love it! The staff are very knowledgeable and the gym is spacious! The community is the best, as a Brit living in a foreign land I was made to feel welcome from day one and have made friends for life! If you’re looking for a friendly, comfortable and fun place to work out this is it!

Strength, Courage, Confidence! CrossFit Ironspider has helped me grow so much! As a woman in her mid fifties (who is also not a natural athlete) I am beyond impressed with the coaches in meeting me where I’m at and making adaptations for various injuries! The community is incredible! I’m fitter and healthier now than in my 30’s!

What can I say about this place. It's the only place I like to go to. I love everything about this place. The workouts, the coaches, the other crossfitters, the whole atmosphere in general is great. I don't just feel stronger and more athletic since I've been going here, I feel like a better person in general. I recommend this place to anyone who just wants a better way of life.

Great community! Wonderful coaches!

I love the challenge & variety of the workouts as well as the amazing community & coaches. I can’t imagine exercising at any other gym!

Being new to Salem, I was met with open arms and to a great community of athletes who push each other each and every day. Coaching staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Would recommend to anyone new to CrossFit or new to the area looking for a gym.

Moved to Salem, MA from Florida in 2021 and I never thought I would find a gym that compared to my Florida gym, I came into CFIS and immediately felt at home and have since then met some people who I now call great friends! The gym owners and coaching staff are amazing! 10/10 would recommend!

A fun and fabulous community with great coaches- the two key elements of a CrossFit gym! I highly recommend CFIS to anyone who is looking to join CrossFit, regardless of skill level, or is new to the area and needs to find their new home 😊

Expert coaches, stellar community, and tough workouts that can be adapted to be accessible for any skill level. CFIS coaches and members alike make you feel welcome and supported.

I have been cross fitting since 2014 and I joined Iron Spider about 2 years ago when my work location changed and I couldn't get to my old gym easily and I will say it is the best cross fit gym I have ever worked out in. The facility is huge, with lots of equipment. Never short of anything, even during a busy workout. They can actually run laps inside, which is great in the winter. If you like working out or stretching on astroturf, they have that as well as the usual weight lifting mats. The restrooms are clean and spacious. But the most important part of a crossfit gym is the staff, and Steve, Mar, Dennis, Brandy, Jenn, and all the others are top notch. I thought I pretty much knew how to do things, but I am alway given great pointers and I know I have improved since joining due to the great coaching. The workouts are absolutely amazing and not just the standard WODs you see at most gyms; they start with a kill to work on, and then there is a WOD which is organized by how they affect your metabolism and by what type of stimulus is delivered. This is really effective and must take a lot of work to create. I have also met some great new friends here as this gym is very social and they frequently do barbecues, holiday parties, and have an annual summer harbor cruise as well as sponsor competitions. No matter if you are a fire-breathing competitor or just want a good workout after doing your day job, you can get what you need here. I highly recommend Iron Spider to anyone who wants to get fit and have a good time and meet some great new people. Less

I became a member in early 2021 and ever since have fell in love with this gym. Great owners, knowledgeable staff, and big open space. I’ll be continuing my membership as long as I live in the area.

I’ve been a member at Iron Spider for over 5 years. The coaches and programming are unmatched. In addition to the fantastic workouts, the biggest thing that keeps me coming back are the people. The community is incredible and really feels like a family. The best part of my day!!

I joined CrossFit ironspider back in October. The community and family atmosphere is what keeps me coming back! I was just jumping back into my fitness journey and they helped me scale the movements to help me become stronger and confident in each movement! I couldn’t recommend a better fitness community to be apart of!

I started going to Ironspider back in 2018 and have never looked back. The place is wonderful. Tons of room and a great community make it a fun atmosphere. The coaches are all very skilled and knowledgeable. The programing is some of the best around if not the best. Dr. Steven Dion does all the programming for the week so you know its built with intention and not just thrown randomly together. There is also plenty of room for you to pop in and do a workout on your own most of the time if you want to do your own programming or can't make the workout. A great perk of the gym is if you are a member, you can do all of their road races for free! So if you also dabble in running this is a fantastic gym for you. Every year I sign up in January for the entire gym and never feel buyers remorse. Love this place. Less

Best gym ever!!

I'm so glad I found CFIS when I moved to the area. The community is so welcoming and supportive and the coaches are amazing. I love coming here everyday and have made so much progress in the 5 years since I joined. If you are on the fence about trying it out, just come in, you won't regret it!

I’ve had the pleasure of being part of this great community for a long time. Expert coaching, wonderful people and an excuse to get into great shape.

Great workouts, trainers and and community. BandS Fitness is a super supportive environment to get and maintain fitness! My favorite class is 8 am Weekend Warrior!

Great coaches, great members, great community.

Been a member here for 8 years and have made many friends. There's a wonderful, supportive culture, seeded by the owners (Steve and Brandy) and promoted by the coaches and members. They meet people where they're at and help them to progress in their fitness.

Great gym with a great staff!

CFIS has become such an integral part of my life. The community that Brandi and Steve have developed is more like a family than just members of a gym. The relationships I have developed there have changed who I am. Everyone there goes out of their way to make you feel welcomed and accepted. Regardless of your experience level there is never any judgement, only guidance and encouragement. If you’ve never tried CrossFit before, this is the place to try. And if you’ve tried it before and weren’t a fan..try again. Not all gyms are created equal and that is truly demonstrated here. Less

Once you try CrossFit Ironspider you won’t ever leave! You’ll be a lifelong member. I’ve been training there for over 18 years and can’t thank Brandi and Steve enough for pushing me to my potential and beyond. The sense of community is like no other!

The perfect community to keep you motivated and welcomed! Coaches are great, knowledgeable and open to help with whatever it may be. You’ll see all fitness levels that will inspire you to be better and hit your own fitness goals. Love this gym and community.

Great coaches and programming for ALL levels! There is nothing better than working out with a supportive community and this one is the BEST! Walk in the door and you’ll never leave! I started in 2009 and I’m still there!

I can’t say enough great things about The Iron Spider. The coaches are super knowledgeable and warm. There is such a sense of community. The programming is top notch and the coaches are always willing to help out with one’s individual needs and goals.

I’ve been a member for over 4 years and love everything about CFIS. The coaching, programming, members and facility are all fantastic and I can’t imagine ever going back to a ‘regular’ gym. The CFIS community keeps you coming back for more!

Always great when you go to CFIS, everyone is so friendly and inviting!

Amazing gym for ALL. Try it once…keep coming back for your health.

I've been coming here for about 3 years now, and I can't recommend the facility & coaches enough! Coach Mar spends so much time and effort providing feedback and tips for each person in class. All workouts are totally customizable to the ability of the individual, and I never feel any shame or guilt from others if I'm having an off day and need to scale a workout.

All workouts are totally customizable to the ability of the individual, and I never feel any shame or guilt from others if I'm having an off day and need to scale a workout. Everyone is so supportive of each other. Even throughout the pandemic, the entire staff kept members sane by maintaining a full schedule of zoom workouts, and when it was safe to do so, in-person classes with covid protocol and social distancing. I would highly recommend Ironspider to anyone, of any age & physical ability! Less

I would also like to point out that I moved out of Salem in 2018 (will be back soon) and have continued to make the 30 min drive to the gym because of how much I enjoy it. The workouts are challenging but fun, and can be done with all kinds of modifications so that newer members can learn and build their skills. The coaching staff knows every member and has modifications for those athletes that have injuries or are unable to do certain movements. The gym is spacious and allows people to spread out while working out, and there is a lot of equipment so that members can have their own stuff. It also has many different time options for those who have crazy work schedules (like myself). This place and this community has been life-changing. So if I were you, I would definitely come check it out! Less

competency and likability as well as dedication and consistency

I was there this pass Saturday. My nephew and his fiancee were in the competition. Very nice people and the place was very clean. Enjoyed my time there.

great coaching, made me feel welcome! Nice community

Extremely well run competition today!! Congrats 👍😏🍀💪🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇸

Great place, wonderful people and kickass workouts!!

Excellent experience!!! Dropped in while vacationing from Texas. Coach Gianni was very helpful and everyone was very friendly. Can’t wait for next time 😁

We are drop ins from Florida and had a great time with Coach Amanda! I’m also 7 months pregnant and it was so refreshing to work with a coach as a drop in who could easily scale the workout. She coached a great class!

Awesome gym, fun comp, friendly people. will definitely make the trip again

Crossfit Ironspider puts on a great comp! Well run and smooth. The judges were nice and professional. The workouts were fun. We had a great time and look forward to coming back.

CrossFit Iron Spider has been a game changer for me on so many levels. The husband and wife team who own the facility, Brandi and Steve, are simply incredible and cultivate the most supportive and motivating community. I have learned so much from the coaches, and pushed myself to new and unexpected places with their guidance and deep knowledge. I have also been able to stay extremely active through a few issues because of the support I received with great modifications that keep me sweating and growing stronger. The last year and a half has been very challenging for many - but being able to go to CrossFit Iron Spider during these difficult moments of the pandemic is what kept me sane, especially in the early days. Steve and Brandi have taken extreme care around this, putting processes in place to ensure the safety of the community - generously spaced out boxes, online sign-ups and reduced class sizes, sanitized floors between classes, all personal equipment unshared and sanitized after each use. It’s been so reassuring to have these extra layers of precaution so members can feel comfortable to work out, and not feel concerns about COVID. And on the member front, it’s a wonderful mix of athletes of all different abilities and ages. Everyone cheers each other on, and helps each other push the limits to new heights. Whether you are a extreme beginner, a steady regular, a seasoned Cross-fitter or somewhere in between, you will get a great workout that is suited to your level. Being at CFIS feels like my home away from home. I can’t live without my workouts here. It is truly a unique place and I could not recommend it more highly! Less

I started working out at this CrossFit gym back in December of 2017 and its been an awesome experience.

I did not know what to expect and knew nothing about weight lifting when I started working out at Iron Spider, but the coaches/fellow members made me feel comfortable and right at home when I started. If you don't feel like doing CrossFit everyday, they also have great boot camps and CrossFit Engine workouts as well as a few other programs. I run a lot of races over the year, and the Tuesday/Thursday morning Engine workouts are a great place to get in some speed/hill work as well as mixing in some core strengthening workouts. I see myself working out here for a long time. Less

Excellent gym and a very well organized competition. Recommend and definitely coming back!

Amazing venue, amazing people, the way everything went was clear, concise and fun! Excellent gym, excellent competition and love the name! My co workers in Western Massachusetts were laughing at the name, but it works though! Would go back and do this again in a heartbeat

I started here about a month and a half ago. I look forward to cross fit classes every day, working with the coaches, and pushing myself. I love the feeling i get after a workout and the amazing support from both coaches and members. I'm always pushed to do my best! Would definitely recommend this!

Ironspider is a great gym with coaches that know their stuff. Never felt pressure to go beyond what my body was capable of, and there is a great support system of athletes. Had I not moved out of the state, I would still be attending.

Great box with a very welcoming environment! Thank you!

Awesome Facility,, with really friendly and knowledgeable Instructors !

Excellent and engaging staff. They welcomed me for a week while I was in town on business and I loved it! Thanks for an excellent experience!

Brandi is wonderfully motivating. She makes sure that working out is for everyone, not just for the "gym types". I love the different get fit monthly contests they run. They have helped a lot of people kick start a new lifestyle.

In the past 8 years of my time in Crossfit, I've lived the life of a Nomad. I've been a member to more boxes I can remember, coached a few athletes, and met so many awesome people in my journey. I moved into Salem because of work and had to find a box to stuff myself in. If you want to get my bottom line, then skip my review to the last paragraph. Otherwise I'll break things down to the following: Coaching, Programing, Facility, Climate. These are the facets that make up a Crossfit gym. Coaching and staff: The coaching staff is stellar, they are always watching and ensuring that members are safe, extremely knowledgeable, provide guidance to improve, they are encouraging, and concerned for the well being of the members. This is one of the few, boxes I've ever been to that will genuinely ask you how you're feeling, and not in a motherly way. More of a friendly way making sure that your comfortable with the movements and Wods. The coaching staff is the foundation of any Crossfit gym and I say that Crossfit Iron Spider is resting on solid bedrock!. Programing: This is the meat and potatoes that develop the athlete. Some boxes will lean towards movements like Olympic lifting and some will lean towards gymnastics or strength. The core of their programing it seems to me is primarily balanced the way it should be. Daily Wods involve Strength and Metcon that will challenge you. There is plenty of variety and sometimes off the wall stuff that will keep you on your toes. Facility: The gym is big with ample room and there's a lot of great qualities about it. First everyone wants to know what the bathrooms are like. Well, this is one of the few gyms I've been to that has showers! Three of them to be exact! The men's bathroom (I haven't been to the ladies locker room sorry) has plenty of room to move around complete with two toilet stalls and one urinal. Now on the the equipment. They use a Rogue Infinity rig and have several Oly stations for those of you what want a solid floor to work on. This is also one of the first gyms I've been to where all the rowers actually work! Good on them maintaining their ergos! I've haven't had to share my equipment or break down the Wods in heats just yet so there's plenty of toys to go around for everyone. The only thing that bothers me about the facility is the entrance of the facility. When there's a run involved in a Wod the entrance/egress is a bottleneck and has a case of metal stairs. a maximum of 2 people can pass through the door so it can be a challenge at times. Last of all parking, yes it can be a major concern but not here. Plenty of parking for all. Right outside the door! Climate: Every Crossfit gym has a pulse, and Crossfit Iron Spider is no exception. It's friendly here and everyone I've met here is very supportive. There is also a collection of awesome athletes so if you're looking for some friendly competition, you'll find it here. If you're curious about Crossfit and want to give it a try, or if you're a veteran athlete, and you want to be challenged then look no further. If you live in Salem or in the surrounding towns, it's a no brainer. You wont be disappointment and it may help change your life. Crossfit Iron Spider is one of the best gyms I've been to! Less

Great spot, nicely ran competition, fun day all together

Be prepared. You're up against far more than you can handle on your own. Take all the help you can get, every weapon God has issued, so that when it's all over but the shouting you'll still be on your feet. -Ephesians 6

It's an awesome place, felt welcome since day one and the trainers are great at giving feedback and encouraging everyone.

I stopped by as a drop-in yesterday. I live in Portsmouth, NH but this box is close to some important people in my life. Gianni walked me through a workout during open gym which was great! I was prepared to work out by myself just dropping in, but Gianni clearly wanted to be helpful, connected, and motivating!

CFIS is a welcoming community of health and fitness conscious members who work hard and have a blast doing it.

Great leadership! great coaching! Considerate, encouraging and challenging workout groups. Been so very happy with every aspect of CFIS and looking forward to committing to the next level of over 40 fitness with this TEAM.

Great box to visit when in Salem. Very welcoming crew and an excellent facility located right near the tourist locations. Highly recommended and looking forward to visiting again.
