See What Our Foundry-Forged Training Clients & Student Athletes Have To Say About The Gym:

My son began training with Hunter Granville at the foundry in January 2017, aiming to strengthen his skills for varsity soccer at Bromfield. Under Hunter’s guidance, he became a starter on three state championship teams. Hunter’s expertise has extended to our whole family; both my daughters and I have trained with him for years. Hunter’s technical knowledge and focus on strength training and on injury prevention make him a true professional, and I’m proud to support his business for the impact he’s had on my children and myself.

Hunter once told me: “A coach is someone who pushes and inspires people to work towards what they never thought they could do; to go beyond their perceived potential.” Over the course of the past few years I’ve learned that Hunter embodies his own quote. Training at The Foundry is a perfect balance of hard work and fun banter. Hunter’s ability to push you while keeping it fun is unmatched, which makes him the perfect guy for individual and group workouts. Myself and BBVS are lucky to have him to call Coach, and The Foundry to call home.

Hands down the best place I’ve ever trained. A good place to grow your skills for sports and or general strength. Great for weightlifter too. I started as a weightlifter in April and I’ve become a great technical and powerful lifter. I’ve gained both physical and mental strength. This is due to the great coaching and teaching. If you want to become a great athlete and or lifter this place is for you!

I have been going to Hunter and The Foundry since it first started about six years ago. This was, without a doubt, the best decision I have ever made for my athletic career and is a huge reason why I am able to play collegiate baseball. Hunter works diligently with every single athlete, from middle school through college, to improve on your strength, speed, mobility, endurance, and mental strength through detailed coaching and creating an absolutely electric environment to be in. For anyone looking to push their athletic career, or even improve upon your everyday life, this is the place to come. Hunter will push you to be better, teach you in. a hands on approach to learn new lifts, and make sure that you are consistently improving every single session. I can not recommend this gym enough to anyone and I will continue to come here as long as I can. There is not too much more you can ask for then a passionate and energetic coach who fosters an environment of excellence and who helps create some absolute animals in the gym. To anyone seeking to play at the next level, no matter the sport, this is the place to be.

Don’t hesitate to give Hunter a chance. He’s been training my son for years and helped him get in his best shape (he’s now a college athlete). I also have been working out with Hunter for over a year and he’s helped me get stronger and more flexible. And despite being serious about getting results, he finds ways to make it fun too!

The Foundry is an amazing place with excellent programs and is completely worth it. Hunter knows how to tailor workouts to one’s specific needs and really help people gain not only strength, but knowledge as well. He breaks down every exercise and lift into the precise details, so you can really learn what you’re doing and how it works. It does not get any better than Hunter and The Foundry.

Hunter is a dedicated and motivating coach who truly cares about his clients meeting their fullest potential. He is able to relate and connect to his clientele and provides quality, individualized programming. Physically working and moving your body is something he will never let you take for granted. I would recommend Hunter to anyone looking to take their fitness to the next level.

I've been going to the Foundry from the very start of the business, and I've been seeing Hunter even before it officially opened. Hunter has tremendously improved my physical health since I entered as an injury prone high school athlete. Immediately, within a few months, I felt stronger and more durable. He really helped contribute to my athletic abilities in high school, and I cannot say that I would've accomplished what I did without him. He truly cares about your success and what you want to do above all else. He can tailor workout plans for just about any type of athlete or persons needs/goals. Not only that, but he will explain why he decides to incorporate certain movements or exercises into your workout plan. I feel like this makes his business very unique. To conclude, I cannot say enough great things about Hunter and The Foundry in one post. I'd recommend him to anyone. Great business, great facility, and most importantly, great guy.

Owner Hunter Granville brings an intense yet welcoming attentiveness to the training. I have not only grown physically, but I have also in my work ethic, energy, and all around motivation ever since joining The Foundry. I have also seen a direct improvement to my athletic skillset. I have made new bonds, lifted heavier weights than I ever knew possible, and grown as an overall person just from becoming an active member. It’s not just a gym, it’s a family.
