Intrepid Gym

Yes! I love this gym. Finally a place where everyone involved cares about the people there. I feel like I am really getting a good total body workout in correct form. I am doing things that I never thought I could do, but with the support and encouragement of the instructors there, here I am! All of the instructors that I have taken with all vary a bit in their approach and music taste, but all are motivating and knowledgeable. If you don’t know how to do something, just ask.
I would explain the workouts as high intensity interval type training that constantly changes forcing your body to stay on top of its game. They are always reinventing ways to use the equipment there. Its more of an industrial space so I kind of feel hard core working out here. The space is clean and well equipped with a real gym feel to it. No fluffy stuff here.
There are lots of options for joining, ie month to month, 6 months, class passes, anything! Very accommodating here. Classes are unlimited and there is no contract (hooray). They also have one on one training if you want/​need that extra attention.
You get what you put in here. If you want to kill it on a workout, you can do that. And you should want to, because why else come to the gym!

Great gym. People are very friendly and willing to assist. I’ve been to gyms before where the guys throw you into a workout without showing proper technique, this gym does not do that; Individuals pay attention to detail. As far as equipment is concerned there are more toys than I knew what to do with. I have a blast every time that I go.

Great gym with friendly coaches and staff. I used to be part of Crossfit but the cost became painful. I like that Intrepid has a flexible pricing model (you can buy classes instead of membership) and they are on ClassPass.

My workout schedule has been almost non existent for the past few months. I have a membership to another gym in Hoboken that I have probably used 5 times. I hate going to regular gyms. Doing the same workout everyday just isn’t for me and working out on my own seems impossible because I need constant motivation and coaching. Don’t even think about asking me to get up before work to workout. Basically I had a million excuses. .. I decided that I needed a change, so I purchased a Groupon for Intrepid Gym (1 month of unlimited classes) with my coworker.
To be honest, I was very intimidated in the beginning. My idea of going to workout was going on the treadmill for a little while, and maybe lifting some hand weights. I knew that Intrepid was not going to be my regular gym experience. Fears aside, I went in for my first class with Cody at 6:30 in the morning. Since it was our first day, we did a slightly «easier» version of the workout that everyone else was doing. I have NEVER sweat so much in my life but it felt amazing!
I have been going now for almost 2 ½ weeks and am obsessed with it! The classes are very challenging, and sometimes I feel like I can’t breath at the end of them, but it is so fulfilling. I have been to a few classes with different trainers (Cody, Phil, Andrew, and Nick) and they were all great. I would recommend going to one of Cody’s classes if it is your first time because he is the best at motivating. You are never made to feel like you can’t do something and thats what I love about it the most.
Overall, I would definitely recommend this place to other people. The only downside for me right now is that the hot water doesn’t work in the showers. I have gotten over that because it honestly feels refreshing after sweating so much but I wonder how I will feel once it starts to get into the colder months. I live in Jersey City but I work in Hoboken, so it is easier for me to get ready at the gym and then just go to work. If the shower situation isn’t fixed by the time it starts getting colder out, I would have to drive to Hoboken to workout, drive back home to take a shower and get ready and then drive back to Hoboken to go to work. Fingers crossed that it gets fixed because I plan on being a member for many months to come!

Have tried a few gyms in Hoboken over the past 4 years and this is the best. Very well priced, great coaches and a great workout. Would recommend this gym to everyone!!!

I’ve hated gyms for as long as I’ve known of their existence. I usually found myself bored and counting the seconds until I could head home. Intrepid Gym has completely changed my perception of what a gym and a great workout are both supposed to be like.
I feel extremely challenged and encouraged here, but never pressured to outdo anyone else, or to go beyond my own capabilities. My fiancé and I have been attending for 6 months now, and there is really no looking back. We are both in much shape and feeling fantastic. We are so committed to our workouts that we attend the 5:45am class just to make sure we fit a workout into our day.
As an added bonus, we have met some wonderful people there as well. Stop by and check it out.

I’ve been working out here for about 8 months, and love it.
Adam, Cody, and all the other trainers know exactly how to motivate you without discouraging you and making you challenge yourself all at the same time. They are all very knowledgable and stress great form to avoid injury.
The workouts are a combination of high intensity body weight exercises with a little bit of Olympic weight lifting.
The workouts can all be scaled to make them more suitable to your level of fitness, and last about 45 minutes. You’ll never sweat and burn as many calories doing any thing else. They never get easier, and feel just as challenging as the day I joined, but I feel much stronger, more flexible, and am in much better shape than when I was going to the old traditional gym.
I recommend this place to anyone trying to get in better shape, or who just can’t dedicate themselves to going to the gym without some extra motivation. Get yourself go the classes and Adam and Cody will motivate you to bust your ass.

Intrepid is an awesome gym.
I’m the kind of person who needs the direction and motivation of a class or personal trainer — and classes here are kind of like having a personal trainer, but with the team atmosphere of a class.
I started with a LivingSocial deal and was definitely the most out of shape person in the classes, but what I love is that you feel motivated to do your best, and no one is shaming you if you don’t know what to do or have to adapt things for your current fitness or skill level. Having never done something like squat cleans before, I looked like a deer in headlights when the coach said we would be doing that in my first class. Now I’m learning and improving my form, and feeling a lot more confident.
The coaches know their stuff, and are great teachers and motivators. The small class sizes allow you the individual attention you need to keep going, but also allow you to get to know the other members and work with partners or in groups.
The HIIT/​crossfit style of the classes means you’re never bored, and if you don’t like a particular exercise, you don’t do it every day anyway, so there’s nothing to get in your way.
On top of everything else, price is a really important factor for a lot of us, and definitely for me. You really can’t beat this price. Unlimited classes and no contracts? Now I sound like an infomercial, but I mean it. That’s important to me. I work in a volatile industry and I’m always terrified of committing to anything for fear of losing my job and not being able to keep up with my bills. I don’t have that fear here. It’s really rather refreshing.

I’ve been working out at Intrepid for about a year now and I find it hard to imagine myself working out anywhere else.
Typically you join a «regular» gym for price and amenities. I used to go to LA fitness and it was ok. I went in, worked out, said hello to a few people and left.
But, doing the same workouts every week becomes so redundant.
I stumbled upon Intrepid through a friend started out slow with just a class or two a week. All it took was two or three classes and I was hooked.
The high intensity classes give you the best of both worlds in fitness, and only occupy a short amount of time. Nobody has time these days to do an hour of weight lifting and an hour of cardio.
Intrepid combines both into one 45 minute class that will leave you completely gassed.

Intrepid Gym is a one-​of-​a-​kind facility to offers great CrossFit style classes and a fun filled atmosphere. It is one of the only high-​intensity gyms in the country with terrific coaches that actually care about your fitness/​health, making sure your form and technique are spot on.
The workouts are definitely a little tougher, but can be tapered down to your skill level, whether you are an advanced cross fitter or just a beginner looking to lose a few lbs. They offer class times both in the early morning, and throughout the night — which gives you no excuses to miss a workout; They even offer a «open lift» session from 10:30am-12:30pm if you want to work on any CF skills or just looking for a strength training session.
Monthly membership if very reasonable, with no binding contracts or initiation fees; something every gym should have! Compared to other CrossFit Affiliates, Intrepid Gym is hands down the best bang for your buck! Do yourself a favor and stop in for a couple trial workouts, you’ll be glad you did!

I really enjoyed the CrossFit «style» classes at this gym. I got a lot out of the time that I spent there, and will definitely be returning. Due to work and personal constraints I had to take some time off but am looking forward to going back!!! You will get FIT!

I started working out at Intrepid Gym about 10 months ago and am still loving it! It’s the best workout you will find in Hoboken and has helped me to get into the best shape I’ve ever been.
Intrepid is all around the most bang for you buck and your time. It’s affordable, there are so many classes available (no excuses!), and the workouts are fast enough that you’ll torch more calories in 45 minutes than you would wandering around a traditional gym for over an hour.
The environment is extremely inviting and feels like a small community of friends hanging out, which makes getting off of your couch and to the gym that much easier. The coaches are encouraging and will correct you as you move through the workout, which is great for beginners.
So, if you’re looking to finally keep your new years resolution for once, I suggest you look into trying a few classes at this gym for a new, fun way to workout.

I’ve been attending Intrepid for about a month and a half now, and I’m hooked.
–THE CLASS: The workouts are extremely challenging, but each member is able to tailor their workout based on their own level of fitness. The atmosphere of the class is great, but the coaches and the members are very friendly and supportive to both new and existing members.
–PRICE: The monthly, quarterly, and annual memberships are all very fairly priced, and much better than anything else you will find in Hoboken. Most gyms that offer high-​intensity, interval workouts (i.e. «Crossfit”-style classes) in the area are well over $ 100 per month. Intrepid does a great job of keeping the cost low while still offering an excellent workout
–CLASS TIMES: I tend to work 55 – 60 hour weeks, so it was very difficult for me to find a gym that offered classes that fit my schedule. Intrepid also offers classes throughout the day, including both early morning classes and late-​night classes, which are perfect for my tough schedule.
–COACHES: Adam, Andrew, and Chris do a great job of ensuring that the classes begin and end on time, running the classes, and motivating participants during the classes. Moreover, they are very thorough when it comes to instructing the classes on proper form and technique for each workout, ensuring that class participants are doing the workouts correctly and safely, and keeping the gym and equipment clean.
All in all, Intrepid is a 5-​star gym with a fantastic group of members, awesome coaches, and a great atmosphere. I’d recommend it for anyone from the Average Joe looking to get healthy to former Cro$$$$fit members who are in great shape but are no longer willing or able to pay an arm and a leg for a gym membership.

Intrepid gym is a great option if you are looking to get in shape and have a great network of people to work out with. As an avid gym goer, I look for a few things when I pick a gym. This has those:
1) Awesome for group workouts and personal training. One of the most important things of this gym that I like is the programming. Whether your goals are to get strong and buff or toned and fit, you will have an option. I have seen other programming that doesn’t take into account your specific goals and your are left with getting extra bulky, if that isn’t your goal, you may not be pleased with other options out there.
2) Atmosphere: it doesn’t get much more inviting than this. Very laid back and non-​threatening. If your goal is to get in shape, you will do this and pick up some great friends along the way. It is down to business but provides a great group to chill with 5 – 10 minutes before your workout.
3) Affordable: it is competitive in pricing to your globo gyms and cheaper than your specialty gyms, ie yoga studios, cf, pilates, personal training.
4) Great location. Right off of Harrison, easy to find parking, easy to walk/​run/​bike to. Also, if you want to hope on the light rail, about 2 blocks from 2^nd street light rail stop.
So if you are in between gyms or just want to mix it up, check out Intrepid you will not be disappointed. Educated and personable staff will leave you coming back for more.
