  • Alright. I held off writing this review till I had been at this gym for a full year. Quick background that will be pertinent for this review. Previously I had never done any sort of weight training aside from food to my mouth. I felt weak and was at a point where I was ready to put in some hard work. I will stop here on talking about myself and my progress, and this won't be a review on CrossFit as awhole. No it's just going to be about this gym and what it's like. I started off by emailing the owner Brian about coming to visit the gym. He responded the same day and welcomed me in. He told me a time to come in and have more support in a smaller class. I started going for my trial week. The coaches were supportive and kind. They would introduce themselves to me and give me extra support being a newby to CrossFit in general. I started off going to the pm classes and made lots of friends here. As per life.. my schedule changed and I began to go to the AM group. The am group is nice because it is always the same cast and it's smaller class sizes so you get to know people a lot faster here. Beware no one hangs out too long cause it's off to work. If you're wondering there are showers available here. The facilities are well maintained by the owner and coaches who are proud of their gym and it shows how they care for it. (So if you go keep that in mind and don't be careless). The facility is one of the largest CrossFit gyms I've been to in the last year. Lots of room for activities. Lots of equipment. Lots of people working hard. Has a kids area, 75% of the time with some kids playing around here. Also puppies. Do I need to say more about this gym? Let's talk about the coaches here. The owner Brian is great at programming challenging workouts (wods). There is always a warm up and an optional cool down, where he takes extra care for your bodies by preparing you for movements and your day afterwards. I travel for work and visited a handful of CrossFit gyms/boxes. Not all are created equal and even though they have warm ups they are not well planned or thought out like Brian's are. That being said, IF you take it seriously it will HELP to avoid injury. Actually not getting injured is up to you. It's definitely part of CrossFit, but is also a big part of this gym is knowing what you're capable of and scaling wods appropriately. The coaches are always open for you to ask what might be best for you. If you're new they will be there to help you out. There is such a varying cast of coaches here. From regional athletes to nutrition coaches. All of them ready to pour some knowledge on you if you care to know it. Here are my last thoughts about this gym.. So it was intimidating going and seeing the extremely fit people at the gym, but there is the gammit of skill levels here. Yes some classes will have a larger contingencies of skill groups, but find a time you like and stick with it, you'll make friends regardless. If you're motivated and committed to bettering yourself you will fit right in. Would I recommend this box? Yes absolutely I do. It is a very average price for CrossFit. That being said CrossFit is like car payment expensive. Thankfully I don't have one. I'll have to rethink it when I do, but it will be easy. I'll still want to come here.
