★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Body Chemistry changed my life! I had just turned 60 and was not feeling optimal and definitely not looking my best! I knew I needed to make a change. When I found Body Chemistry in Norwood, I found my second home. I found myself again!On 9/1/2024, I went on the Evo Plan, which is a customized diet plan.

August 03 · Pamela CurryThis gym is my happy place!! Everyone is super welcoming. There is no trying to fit in as I have experienced in other gyms. Everyone is treated the same with the utmost respect. It’s been years on and off due to my own physical issues not caused by anyone there but my own issues they have plagued me for years. They are so good they know how to work around them. If you are know you will realize how happy everyone is. I have been to a lot of gyms and this one 💯 takes the cake and checks all the boxes. In the past I would join gyms and never feel like I belonged. I always doubted myself and how I look. Here I have never felt so seen and I feel like I have a whole team behind me besides my trainer. It’s a gem!!
August 04 · bridgette lombardiBody Chemistry is by far the coolest gym you will ever go to, the vibe alone is enough to make you want to go to the gym!But better than that is the owner John Wardell and his staff who are allextremely knowledgeable and super nice!I work out with John 4 times a week and at 67 I have never looked more toned and fit! i always look forward to going to the gym!
August 03 · HOLLY BarnettI’ve been coming here for almost 10 years, since we traded the upper west side for the northern valley. John and the entire team is excellent. Could not recommend them more highly. I spend several days a week in the gym and always feel welcome and comfortable. 10/10 for anyone looking for a local personal training gym.
August 03 · Phil MIt's been a year and a half for me at Body Chemistry and I couldn't be happier with my experience there. I can feel and see my progress and it's all due to the good hands I'm in. I'm thankful to my brother who wholeheartedly recommended it to me a year and a half ago. This gym is very different from all the gyms I've ever been to. It has a familial friendly vibe to it, while everyone clearly working hard to meet their goals. I really love it and I'd never imagine I'd love a gym.
