The CAC is Expanding: Coming this Fall - the CAC EXPRESS!

The Cambridge Athletic Club is pleased to announce the opening of the CAC Express on October 1st, 2010! The CAC Express will be located in the Riverfront Office Park at 101 Main St. in Cambridge’s Kendall Square and will be the Cambridge Athletic Club’s second Kendall Square location, with the original Cambridge Athletic Club located in the Athenaeum Building at 215 First St.

The CAC Express will provide all Cambridge and Kendall Square employees and residents more ways to stay fit and healthy. Formerly Riverfront Fitness, the CAC Express fitness facility will be outfitted with brand new cardiovascular training equipment as well as new functional, strength and weight-training equipment. Personal and small group training will also be a focus of the CAC Express, offering members more efficient and productive workouts.

The CAC Express is the perfect complement to the Cambridge Athletic Club. The original CAC is a 25,000 square foot, full service fitness facility that has been Kendall Square’s fitness leader since opening in 1980. Locally owned and operated, the club has evolved throughout the years, recently completing a total renovation in the fall of 2009. The CAC boasts such programs as group fitness (two separate studios: cardio/strength training and mind/body), personal training, physical therapy, massage therapy and nutritional counseling. Sports programming at CAC includes basketball, racquetball, squash and wallyball. Other unique CAC features include free parking, towel service, spacious locker rooms, steam rooms and saunas.

The new CAC Express gives members, Cambridge employees and residents access to a fitness and training facility that will be open 19 hours per day, 5:00 AM – 11:59 PM. The CAC Express is also conveniently located in the Riverfront Office Park, which is home to approximately 2,400 employees. In addition to being located less than a five minute walk from CAC, its close proximity to the Kendall/MIT stop on the red line, Cambridge Innovations Center at One Broadway and short walk over the Longfellow Bridge for Beacon Hill employees and residents make the CAC Express and CAC network extremely convenient.

Memberships are available for use of both the Cambridge Athletic Club and the CAC Express. CAC reciprocal memberships also reach Beverly, offering the Beverly Athletic Club and BAC Express (for more info visit www.beverlyathletic.com).

This program is designed to accommodate each company’s individual needs and includes such benefits as; discounted corporate membership rates, on site visits by our personal trainers and nutritionist, private group fitness classes, and extended free trials for new employees. We look forward to incorporating our Wellness at Work program at the CAC Express!

With the opening of the CAC Express, CAC’s second fitness facility in Kendall Square, the Cambridge Athletic Club is excited to expand the club’s reach and continue to be Kendall Square’s fitness leader. Cambridge and Kendall Square are both evolving and growing and CAC is very excited to be a part of such a vibrant place to live, work and play!
