Parker Cote Elite Fitness

Parker Cote Elite Fitness is a private personal training studio built around one-on-one sessions, where each client works with one trainer and no one else is on the gym floor. Sessions are designed for the individual rather than from templates or preset circuits, and they may draw on strength work, functional movement, conditioning, mobility and technique. The studio has a 1,600-square-foot space with specialty equipment, including handcrafted leather boxing gear and specialty bars and benches, that is less common in commercial gyms.

New clients start with a free initial consultation and a private assessment that covers movement, schedule, goals and limitations before the first session. Training is by appointment only. The studio is on Newbury Street in Boston's Back Bay, between Clarendon and Dartmouth streets, and is reachable on foot, by car or by public transit. Parking validation and private parking are not offered. Complimentary towels, water, lockers and showers are available on site.
