Highly recommended. It is not a hectic environment, and the personnel is always courteous and helpful. Dana, the gym's manager, was really helpful in navigating and accessing membership amenities. The gym was always well-maintained and tidy.

FitLab in Merrimack is hands down one of the best gyms I have been to. Really great monthly price, with a 24 hour membership option. Staff is super friendly and helpful and they have recently started offering red light therapy, which I love.

★★★★★ — Jennifer, Oct 2025

I was going to Planet prior to coming to this gym. I was tired of the overcrowded gym with amentities I never used cause they were very basic. I came to this gym cause I drove by it every day and saw how less packed it is and wanted to check it out.

★★★★★ — Karina, May 2026

The Merrimack Fitlab has been my go to place to train the last 10 years and I can’t say enough good things about this place! From the accommodating and friendly front desk staff to the cleanliness of the whole facility this really is the go to place to get a workout in!

New to kickboxing? Start at Merrimack FITLAB

Merrimack FITLAB comes up as a beginner-friendly gym, going by their listing and members’ reviews. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.

Your first kickboxing class at Merrimack FITLAB

Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Kickboxing is a contact sport. Warm up, pace yourself, listen to your coaches, and if you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them before class and check with a doctor if you're unsure.
