The Borough is a community-focused CrossFit and weightlifting gym located at 156 E. 100th Street in East Harlem.Coach Nick began his coaching career in 2010 at Boston’s CrossFit Southie. He spent five years there as Head Coach and weightlifting and endurance programmer. In 2018, Nick moved to New York City and coached at a number of gyms around the city, looking for the right fit. Ultimately he found his place as Head Coach at CrossFit Metropolis in East Harlem. But the gym was forced to close during the pandemic, leaving the community he’d discovered without a place to call home.The CrossFit methodology is rooted in functional fitness and general physical preparedness. It has proven effective for athletes worldwide, but after years of coaching CrossFit, Nick has taken what he’s learned from Ohio’s Westside Barbell to create programming even more dynamic. Westside is a world class powerlifting gym that has produced some of the strongest men and women in the world. Nick has taken their training style — the Conjugate Method — and applied it to CrossFit. This is what we offer at The Borough.
