Barry’s Bootcamp – Boston Gym Review
About
A trip to Barry’s Bootcamp (BB) feels like a grueling night out at the club. Bumping beats, red-tinted lighting, and beautiful people make this boutique studio one of the hottest around. BB is one of Boston’s “luxury gyms,” which is self-explanatory. You’ll receive top-notch service and posh surroundings, and you’ll pay the price for this luxury. A workout session at BB will be an original experience with pumping music, red-tinted studios, and a magical combination of sound, lighting, instructors and fellow exercisers. BB claims to burn up to 1000 calories in one class.
Location
BB has studios all over the country and internationally. This review is for the Downtown Boston MA location. This BB is located on Chauncy Street, near Dewey Square Parks and Downtown Crossing Station.
