Rugged North Fitness is an amazing gym with coaches that truly want to see you succeed! I have been going to this gym for about 6 months and have seen huge improvements in my stamina and strength. They have a tight knit community that is supportive, encouraging and welcoming to new members! Every day there is a different workout with modification options so no matter where you are at in your fitness journey, you will be challenged! More...

The most amazing, effective gym you can ever imagine. Innovative workouts, that will challenge you to rise to your true fitness level. I would never know what I am capable of if I did not start here two years back. It’s been an incredible, transformative journey for me. I found a new community. Give this place a try. You so t regret it. More...

This gym is more challenging than any other fitness gyms I’ve tried in the past, and the group setting keeps me from giving up. Definitely worth checking out if you haven’t already, you won’t be disappointed! More...

For anyone looking to get into the best shape of their lives, Rugged North Fitness is the place to go. Rugged North offers a 30 - 45 minute high intensity interval training workout. There is a weekly format to hit all your workout goals; cardio, upper body, legs and abs. The workouts change daily so you'll never get board. The team at Rugged North is top notch. Starting with a great owner Jay Cascalenda. Jay has a superb team of coaches. They lead by example demonstrating each exercise of the day. Jay and his team provide more than a workout routine. They can answer questions about diet and help with accountability. Finally, what I like most about Rugged North is the community. The people you workout with will support you in your goals and drive you to achieve more that you though you could. More...

I have been going to RNF for about 6 months now and it is one of the best investments I have made in myself! This is one of the first places I went to start working out. Everyone, from the coaches to the fellow group members, are extremely encouraging and keep me motivated to keep working out. The ever changing workouts are great and challenge every part of the body.

Rugged North Fitness completely changed the way I think about fitness. I used to casually work out and see little to no results, and since coming to RNF, I now understand how hard I need to workout and how much I need to push myself (even when I can't make it to my 5:30AM class ). Jay is super helpful with any fitness questions you may have and really holds you accountable. I especially love the social aspect of this group- everyone is so welcoming! Truly- the BEST workouts I've ever had! More...

I love this gym! My husband and I have been coming here for over two years now. One of my favorite things is the COMMUNITY and support! ! I’ve never gone to a gym where I’ve actually made friends and had so much fun. It’s also nice to do the group workouts - you might think it’s intimidating at first, but it’s actually great! I used to go to big gyms and had no idea what I was doing, and I just felt awkward. But here when you’re sweaty & tired, you look around and realize you’re all doing it together. No matter your age or fitness level, you can modify the workouts to be great and effective for YOU (and nobody judges you). Plus the trainers are amazing and help you figure out what you’re doing, have the right form, and modifications if you need! My transformation is a little different than many, as I’ve actually gained weight (aka muscle). I’ve learned to love my body and that the number on the scale doesn’t matter as much as how you FEEL. I used to be a cardio bunny and now I love weights and am getting so much stronger. So thankful for my Rugged North fam!! More...

If you get bored easily, want a challenge, and thrive on (friendly!) competition, this is the gym for you! Jay puts his heart and soul into running this place and it shows. Classes follow the same basic structure, but vary every day. Every! Day! He hosts both fitness and social events, which create a fun and friendly atmosphere. My fitness level is at it's highest level since college (maybe even better), and seeing it increase every day is a huge motivator. Working out here has become a part of my daily routine and I wouldn't have it any other way. Come check it out - you won't regret it! More...

Ever since Highschool I've tried a ton of different fitness programs. P90X, Insanity, Crossfit, memberships at Planet fitness, a health club membership because I'd convinced myself I needed a pool to succeed, and at one point I even resorted to a Jillian Michaels program. Awful. I know. Jay and the crew at Rugged North Fitness have crafted a facility and routine that, for the first time, not only sticks BUT WORKS. The coaches devise new ways to make you sweat every class resulting in creative, varied and intense workouts. The people who go to the gym are some of the nicest I've ever encountered in a fitness community, and i feel I've formed lasting friendships with my fit fam. Whether I go to the 615am class or one of the evening classes after work, I know I'm going to have a good time with whoever is there with me as we all ride the Squat Struggle Bus together. Whats even more amazing is how the gym has grown over the last year. Jay has been working his butt off remodeling the gym, buying great equipment like stationary bikes, row machines and even remodeling an entire room into a space for lifting weights. A new 3d body scanner makes weighing in exciting and insightful as it gives Body fat percentage, posture metrics, exact body measurements and more. Since joining I've completely redone my diet, lost 3 inches off my waist, shed 4% of my body fat and 25lbs. I cannot recommend this gym enough. Stick with it. It doesn't get easier, but the rewards are definitely worth it. More...

Great gym with even more updates coming soon! Amazing people and you can look forward to finding your own “crew”. The 5:30, or 6:15, lunch hour or after work, you will meet a group that helps motivate and makes these workouts fun! Jay has built a fitness family. He brings fresh ideas to the workouts with simple modifications all the way to adding new equipment. If you are in a rut, looking for a new way to workout, or simply want to be challenged more you can find it all at Rugged North Fitness! More...

I started coming to this gym 5 years ago when it was Fit Body Boot Camp and will continue to enjoy going with the new name. Jay and the other trainers are great leaders and motivators in class and will also join the workouts with you sometimes. Before coming here, I never stuck to the same gym for this amount of time. The workouts are only 30-40 minutes and are never the same. There is always a ton of variety in the exercises to keep your body guessing and keep you from getting bored with the same routine. They also provide a variety of modifications if you feel like you cannot do the exercise as demonstrated. I was even able to continue coming after having a couple of injuries that happened outside of the gym, Jay helped me find modifications so that I could still burn some calories and keep moving. They also have nutrition plans and a body scanner that can help you reach your goals. Everyone in class is also very welcoming and encouraging. We have all become part of the Rugged North Fitness Family. More...

It took me a long time to find a fitness program that I could actually stick to. The workouts never lack creativity, always challenge me & leave me with an endorphin high that stays with me for days! Jay & the team of trainers do an excellent job at making you feel comfortable, from my very first day to a year and a half later. I’ve gained muscle, self confidence, knowledge, support & friendships! LOVE this gym & love my fit fam! More...
