REVIEWS OF First City CrossFit IN California

This is a wonderful community of amazing people! The coaches are all super awesome and the programming is fantastic. If you're in the area, you have to come check this place out! You will NOT be disappointed!

Aaron Gaily, D.C.

This is a great gym! I am a long time crossfitter and have been to many gyms over the years. This gym provides a great blend of experienced athletes but also still retains a great beginner community of people stoked to get their first double under. Great coaches, great hours, great parking, great equipment, just great people too. Highly recommended!

Previn Grant

I often visit Monterey, and without a second thought I love coming to check out First City Crossfit. The community is so friendly and welcoming. The last two years they’ve even rallied to help me out with guest passes for the aquarium which was so helpful for my big family. The facility is very clean and the coaches definitely know their stuff. I was really impressed with their knowledge about mobility and strength especially when you’re doing crossfit it makes such a big difference! I would recommend this box to anyone visiting or moving to this area! Can’t wait to visit again :). Sarah Grant

I want to meet the person who gave this place 4 stars. They are the kind of person that hates Christmas and small puppy dogs. This place rocks. Frank is the best.

Jeremy Cappello

I was in town visiting for a conference, signed up for $50 weekly unlimited plan. What's cool about this place is you can go for open gym or do the classes. They have a huge gym area with a ton of racks/weights, oly room with lifting platforms and romwod room. I did the classes 3/4 days and the programming/coaching was top notch. I would highly recommend this box to anyone who is interested in crossfit

Best Crossfit Box I have ever dropped in on....and I travel frequently for work. Great equipment, clean and very spacious gym, very knowledgeable coaches, and they immediately welcomed me as though I had been coming for years. Great drop-in rates as well. Highly recommend!

Don Davolio

Thanks to Frank and the First City crew for the hospitality! I dropped in twice during my stay at Pebble and it couldn't have been a better experience. I've visited over 20 CF gyms the last few years and this is one of the best I've seen. Clean, professional environment and great coaches! Hope to get back soon!

Maria Zamora

FCCF is one of the best Crossfit gyms I have been to and I am a well travelled person. It all starts from the owner who sets the tone. The coaches are all phenomenal - they all care about ALL their athletes. Not sure if they see it but unknowingly they bring a sense of family and friendship within. What else can you ask for! It is a great place to workout in no matter what fitness level you are.

Jackie Barry

So glad I listened to the reviews and joined this box. Everyone has been so welcoming and encouraging and my kids absolutely love the child care. The equipment is top of the line and the coaching staff is too. I have learned more in the past few weeks than I did during the 8 months at my last box. The coaches take their time with all the athletes to make sure everyone knows each lift and has proper form. The WOD's are challenging, but so rewarding. HIGHLY RECOMMEND to any athlete at any level.

Ronald Mork

Staying the the area for a week and needed a Crossfit workout and we got it. My wife and I are older, she is 47 and I am 59 and have been doing Crossfit for well over a year. We stopped in for the noon class and we felt right at home. Big clean facility, plenty of equipment for a class of 15, prompt schedule, great coach (Kyle). Great skill and WOD programming. Kyle was awesome, friendly, and very welcoming to all, really engaged himself in being attentive to everyone. Great cues on the skill (split jerk) as well, thanks Kyle. The class had a wide array of age and experience and a great workout was had by all. Stop in, you can't go wrong. Don't be afraid, the Crossfit community is alive and well at this box. Back again tomorrow for us.

Josh B

I spent about 2 1/2 months here at FCCF before having to move away, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I had no background in weightlifting, or anything outside of push-up's. Frank really goes above and beyond to help people, and genuinely cares about his athletes. Most of my time there was spent being coached by Kyle who's sense of humor, and knowledge of working out made it really fun, and entertaining. I've also had Kim who is an excellent coach as well, and always pushes you to do your best, in a safe fashion. Lastly, I've only had Marley a couple of times, but she was also nice and will push you further than you thought you could go. The first time I came in, I was intimidated, but everyone is very welcoming and friendly, it starts to feel like a family the more you go and get to know everyone. I'd suggest at least doing the 5-day free trial, and seeing how you like it!

Cameron Bucek

Great BOX, as a traveling CrossFitter I have been in over 150 boxes.......this is TOP 10. Awesome layout, CLEAN, great equipment (Rogue Soft Box), great coaching, and fun environment. MUST DO in Monterey!!

Matthew Janiga

I've been going for a little over a month (started with the 5 workout trial). The coaches are extremely helpful spinning up people like myself who are new to crossfit. The variety to the workouts keeps things fun.

Jim Crowe

I've been to quite a few regular gyms and a fair amount of "boxes" and can easily, easily say this is my favorite. There are a ton of reasons to love it, but I'll just list the best. Atmosphere: It's a well stocked crossfit gym, so you should be able to find darn near anything you need to get in that great workout if you go on your own. But I'd recommend going to the classes. It's always clean, always bright, and usually has a flurry of openly warm and friendly people working out, chatting, or both. Seriously, they all seem to welcome you like family. I haven't felt such a sense of belonging to a gym in many, many years. Coaches: Each coach not only knows what they are talking about, but knows how to break down an unfamiliar exercise in a way anyone can understand. And the best part? They are all safety first coaches. They don't really care what your time is or if you're trying out for the games (unless you tell them you do), they just want you to be safe and injury free. So they'll watch your form, gently stop you if necessary, and retrain on the spot. It's very refreshing to be somewhere that you're not pushed to the point of injury just for a better time. And because I've been injury free for quite a while now, I'm in better shape than ever. Equipment: Very clean, well organized, and plentiful amounts of everything you'll need. The max class size is 16 and there is enough room and equipment for pretty much everyone! Owner: Frank legitimately loves this place. You can tell in his smile and the way he talks about it, the fact that he will regularly and happily take classes himself, assist in coaching, Coach himself, and stay after class helping people with a new skill. Frank is amazing and a selling point all on his own. Get in here, learn a new skill, get fitter than you've ever been.

Luis Calado

Felt like home! Great facilities, amazing equipment, vibrant atmosphere, friendly community and awesome coach. Thanks for the drop-in Frank! If I'm ever back I'll definitely see you again!

I have to be honest....I love the idea of cross fit. It's a workout like I have never had before. But I just did not like the cross-fit boxes I had tried. It felt like an exclusive club I was never going to be good enough to be a part of. As much as I wanted to continue, I just felt so unwelcome and uncomfortable I stopped going. It was way too much money to not feel like that. Enter First City CrossFit. It's more than a box...it's a family. From the moment I entered the building I felt welcomed, encouraged and taken care of. Don't let me mislead you though....they kick your butt! But form is king and the instructors and other participants are amazingly good at keeping you on the straight and narrow and getting the most out of each move. It's an amazing, unpretentious group of folks that love what they do and it shows. Their excitement is absolutely contagious, and it makes you want to work harder. Add in the child area for those of us who are working parents, and this box is near perfect. If you're looking for a place to belong, be supported AND get fit, this is your box. Frank and Erica the owners have struck gold with their approach and philosophy and they have a loyal fan in me! First City CrossFit rocks!

David Backer

I have been with First City Crossfit for 2 years and it will be the one thing I will miss most about Monterey. The facility is absolutely huge. It is clean and full of well-maintained and state of the art equipment. It also has a team of coaches that are very experienced, capable and extremely willing to help you achieve personal and professional goals. My favorite part of First City was their supportive attitude and their ability to cater to individual needs while fostering a family and team atmosphere. I want to extend an infinite amount of "Thank You's" to Frank, Kyle and Kim.

AJ Carter

What can I say about First City CrossFit? I have traveled the world and been to tons of CrossFit Boxes. This is my favorite! Top notch coaching and top notch equipment with an inviting charm. If your in the area, look no further. Young, old, fit, or looking to improve yourself, this gym is for you. Free Yoga, free child care, Olympic lifting classes, progressive and scalable work outs will bring the best out of you. The owners have put their heart and soul into this place and the love is infectious.

Alana Nelson

As an experienced Crossfitter (4 years this past Fall) who moves frequently with my husband's career, FCCF is my 4th box. One of the most impressive things about FCCF is Frank and Erica's dedication to both community and family. This is hands-down the most welcoming box I have ever belonged to and they go above and beyond to create a family-friendly atmosphere, specifically with child care. As a mother with two young children the fact that their child care does not just consist of an area with a tv and a handful of toys, but (during certain hours of the morning) has a PERSON who is overseeing the children is a huge relief. Additionally, Frank and Erica have community events outside of the box that has cemented my relationships with many of my box mates. The owners have also shown a great dedication to adding new equipment as the box has grown exponentially over the past year; it is one of the best-equiped boxes I have ever experienced. Finally, the coaches are knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated. I joined FCCF 3 months post-partum and the coaches were able to help me re-establish my fitness in a safe and effective way. They also believe in environmentally sound practices and are a drop-off point for fresh-locally caught seafood, and use eco-friendly products in their gym. Frank and Erica have a generous free week-long trial for potential new members, so if you haven't tried Crossfit yet or you're looking for a new box drop in and see for yourself.

Travis Taylor

Great people, great atmosphere, great workouts. They will make you better.

bkgonefishin

Great gym run by a great guy. Go check it out.

Alex Torea

Dropped in for a great workout. Amazing facility located in a beautiful area. Kyle is an awesome guy and great coach. Friendly atmosphere and everything a crossfit box should be!

Aaron Box

In short - great coaching, great equipment, great owner. STRONGLY RECOMMEND! My wife and I are still recovering from our first child and new to crossfit. They offer Foundations on Saturdays to get detailed, safe, individual coaching on fundamental movements and concepts. They offer plenty of group classes. The coaches still pay plenty of attention (especially for newbies) to ensure correct form and safe lifting. We are constantly sore, but seeing results after only 5 classes (over three weeks). Cherry on top for parents - they offer daycare every morning and weekends. All of our previous excuses - the baby, no experience, feeling weird as newbs - answered at FCCF. Frank, the owner, is very chill, welcoming, accommodating, and helpful. He seems like a great guy to work for and has been very involved with our experience as customers.

Kristal Maak

Just have to give a huge thank you to First City CrossFit and Nicole and Starlyn and plenty of other unnamed support peoples. While I was sitting here thinking man I have a lot of runs coming up that I need to start preparing for and not doing so because I am so in love with CrossFit.... I just ran for my first day of half marathon training and I ran under 10 min miles! This may not seem much to some but I have to tell you it is huge. Before I started CrossFit this was a huge block. Since, having my fourth I have not been able to break that 10 min mile pace. I stopped running started CrossFit and not only am I way stronger but also way faster and 110% happier. And apparently I am skinnier too. I am absolutely in love and addicted to First City Crossfit!

Michelle Czarnecki

I just finished my free trial and bought the unlimited monthly pass because I love First City CrossFit so much. The coaches are welcoming, thorough, and super helpful with form and modifications. Fellow athletes are friendly and welcoming. Lots of class time options and great assortment of equipment/space. I highly recommend stopping by!

Ben Hamilton

Great coach and friendly regulars who made me feel welcome during my drop in. Also lots of equipment which was of a high quality.

Steven Harvey

You truly don’t appreciate the best things in life until they’re gone. My family left Monterey for San Diego a couple of months ago and we are really missing First City. No gym down here compares as far as we’re concerned. Frank Foehrenbach, what you and your coaches have built is truly something special. You spoiled us with new equipment, flexible hours, open gym (!), and ensured everyone cleaned the gear before putting it back (neatly of course, especially the jump ropes). Best of all, for those of us with small kids, you provided a safe place for them to meet new friends while we tried to better ourselves mentally and physically. My wife and I got to do couples WODs because of the childcare option, which was just huge for our relationship! And don’t get me started on Barbell Club, some of the best instruction I’ve ever received thanks to Joshua McCarver, Kimberly McCarver, Kyle Krancher, and Chris Stoff). These four coaches in particular did the Lord’s work with my 8-year-old too (you four know what I mean). I love that First City invites kids into the community to build healthy habits early. Anyway, just thought I’d post now that I know what we had was something more special than I could’ve imagined. Appreciate what you’ve got folks, all CF gyms are not created equally. First City has my family’s sincerest thanks!

gene morris

Hands down absolutely best crossfit gym in Monterey. First City crossfit is family friendly, they have a daycare section, their facility is large and they are just incredibly friendly and inviting. Don't waste your time going any where else...They are the best!

Dionne Ybarra

I have been so surprised at how much I like CrossFit! I had heard great things about First City CrossFit but still signed up hesitantly. I am a long time athlete but had a really difficult time getting back into a fitness and well being routine after having my last baby at 44 with a 16 year gap between pregnancies my physical recovery took a long time and my confidence level was down along with my fitness level. First City CrossFit gave me a warm welcome and is working me back into shape, developing new skills and allowing me to challenge myself and feel confident. All of the staff has been helpful and with all of the super fit humans who go here I have never felt intimidated only motivated to follow in their footsteps to feel fit and healthy again. I really like the diversity of every work out and the choice of class times has been key in my continued success. Lots of options!! I would recommend anyone who might feel hesitant or intimidated by CrossFit to try First City!

keyla velasco

I absolutely love firstcity crossfit. I have 3 kids and to be able to take them with me (with the supervision of my oldest13) I'm able to go almost everyday. The coaches are very friendly the facility is kid friendly and makes me feel like family. The athletes help each other out. I started to do crossfit to change my lifestyle and it has helped me not only to better my self physically but most important mentally too. I would recommend it to anyone!

Roderick Roxas

Welcoming atmosphere. Awesome coaches. Always safety first.

Bianca Kiefer

As a drop-in, I can highly recommend this box! Welcoming people, awesome coach, good quality of the equipment. Had a really nice time there! Thanks a lot for the great workout!

Brandon Cruz

This establishment was where I found myself the first time I had the opportunity to try out a box. From humble beginnings in a drive way to where It stands today, FCCF was a great place to get a workout. After having felt that I grew out of the environment that was available, I find myself elsewhere today. Regardless, You'll likely enjoy the community and the people if you're in the Monterey area.

Kelsey Barrion

Very friendly staff; check out the five free sessions (spaced at your convenience) to see if you want to try it out. Owner is personable and prices are reasonable for the level of coaching and programming you receive. Members tend to also be welcoming and all ability levels are able to participate in classes and get a great workout. If you stick with it for at least a couple months, you will get stronger and more capable.

Gina Dabbah

I have been an athlete at FCCF for over 2 years. I need to make a shout out to my home gym and the owner Frank Foehrenbach for teaching me how to train properly, effectively, and with great form. Im away for the summer and the people at the Stanford gym thought I was training for something or a visiting athlete because my form is impeccable (idk about that) and I move so well with difficult movements. Thank you to the coaches like Kyle Krancher, Kimberly McCarver, and Joshua McCarver (especially for the weightlifting training) and all the others at FCCF. I miss it everyday

Andy Toledo

Awesome facility with awesome people. I am from the Bronx, New York and stopped in Monterey before heading to San Francisco. Decided to drop in for a morning workout and was received with open arms. Thank you frank for a memorable 8am iron body workout!!!!

Austin Melancon

I've been meaning to write a review on here for a while and I kept forgetting until today

Colleen Coffeen

Why I love going to First City CrossFit! 1. Very knowledgeable and certified coaches that can modify any workout for your individual needs. You leave feeling challenged and satisfied. It is for ALL ages and levels. 2. Every class has a warm up, instruction for the WOD, WOD, and cool down. 3. FAMILY FRIENDLY! They have free daycare everyday at the 9am and 10am classes. 3. Military discounts for active duty and spouses. 4. The coaches want to help you not just the 1 hour you are in the gym each day, but the other 23 hours of the day as well. The 30 Day Eating Clean Challenge was a HUGE success! 5. The owners Frank and Erica are extremely nice, helpful, professional, knowledgeable, and are constantly adding to their gym and providing their clients with new equipment! You should sign up for your free week trial (5 classes). Super easy to do on their website. 6. Lastly, I SEE RESULTS! YAY! :)

Russell Atkins

Just a great place to drop in at! The box is set up nicely, and the staff that I dealt with were super friendly, and helpful. I had trainers Anthony and Theo. I was impressed with Anthony and his style, and would have been really happy with just that, but I'm so happy to have had Theo train me. He was incredibly knowledgable and helped make my front rack better in about ninety seconds, something a dozen other trainers have all attempted to do, and failed. I cannot recommend Theo higher. I didn't get to meet Frank, the owner, but he was very available and friendly via phone and text and email. Great box, great facilities, great staff, great people to work out with. Plus, you're in Monterey. How can it get any better? I will definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

Kellie Artis

I've been going to FCCF since they opened and haven't looked back. Amazing facility, knowledgeable coaches and a NON-intimidating culture. They've cultivated a great community amongst all levels of athletes and truly want to see you be your fittest self! Oh, and they have CHILDCARE! :) Huge for me. They give a free week trial for you to see if it's a good fit for you (it is) and have very competitive membership rates for Crossfit gyms. They even offer a military discount! Love this gym.

Brian Orosco

Great facility! Everything's new and the open layout makes the space very useful. Also, if you have kids, they have a nice big enclosed area for them to play while you workout. The coaching staff, as in most CF boxes I've visited, is very nice and approachable. They make you feel at home right from the get-go. No need to watch other people and guess how to do any movement. They'll walk you through anything you don't know so you don't accidentally strain a muscle or hurt yourself. Not to mention, the clientele is very community oriented and welcoming.

Annie deSaussure

I was a member of FCCF while working a summer job in Monterey, and I loved being a part of the community. I'm an experienced crossfitter (6+ years), and this is one of the best gyms I've belonged to. The owner, Frank, is so invested in his gym and his members. He introduces himself to everyone who walks through the door and he remembers everyone's name. The community is incredibly warm and supportive. Members are friendly with each other and with new comers, everyone is open and warm. The space is huge and very clean. The equipment is top-notch. You can work out on your own or with the class. The programming is really stellar as well. This is one of the few gyms I've been to that has a great mix of beginner and experienced athletes. There is even a competitor team if you're looking to take it to the next level. Hands down best gym in Monterey! No matter what your goals are, FCCF will help you reach them. I will miss this place and hope to be back as soon as I can!

Jaeduck Park

The First City Crossfit box is very spacious and has lots of crossfit equipments. There are all age groups and the athletes are super friendly and nice to each other and they love to have social gatherings such as Thanksgiving dinner, casual hangouts at the beach. The owner Frank is very supportive to establishing our own crossfit community here. This proves how strong our community bond is! The coaches including Kyle, Tim, Rebecca, Joshua, Nicole, Kim & all others are very friendly, professional, & knowledgeable about training and they offer very constructive and effective feedback to your forms and postures. Also, they have their own unique strategies in explaining movements and showing warm-up exercises. Whenever you work out, you feel very welcomed and encouraged. They have daily workout of the day (WOD) which changes everyday. Basically you never do the same workout so this makes me want to come out to the box and check out daily WOD and do it passionately. Besides regular crossfit class, they have many different classes such as Barbel Club & Mobility and many crossfit classes are offered in various hours on seven days per week to meet your needs. Believe or not, since I started to work out here in this box in late September of 2016, I have lost close to 25 lbs. This shows how effective their training is. If you want to be in good shape both muscle-wise and cardio-wise, I highly recommend to try crossfit here! Thank you FCCF!!!

Lori Kohls

Best crossfit gym in Monterey! Friendly and helpful coaches and clients.

Corey Coleman

Easy to get started, super welcoming, and all the best equipment. I had a really good time meeting all of the friendly coaches, the athletes, and even the owner!

Frank Foehrenbach

First City CrossFit of Monterey is a great place to workout. If you're looking for a fun and welcoming place to start or continue your fitness journey, come workout with these guys. Egos are left at the door, and friendship, community, and serious ass-kicking await you inside!

Amy L'Heureux

First City Crossfit is an amazing place. When I first moved here, I was worried because I knew we were only going to be here for about 9 months. I wasn't sure about making friends, I didn't know where I was going to workout and deal with childcare. My neighbors introduced me to the gym (which I was nervous about because I had never done crossfit before, and I've heard intimidating things about it!), but WOW. The coaches really take the time to introduce themselves and introduce you to the group. Frank, the owner introduced himself to me personally and made sure I felt comfortable, walked me around, and introduced me to people. Seriously, they go out of their way to make you feel welcome as a person and as an athlete. There was one day I showed up to class, realized I wasn't going to be able to finish the workout because of time constraints, so I left. Later that afternoon I received a phone call from Frank making sure that I was ok, that nothing happened at the gym that made me want to leave, and asking if I needed anything at all. I was floored. I have never been a part of something that, "took care of their own" so quickly. There are always multiple coaches in the gym during classes, so you feel as if you are getting personal training most of the time. Every class, regardless of who is in there, all of the moves are taught and demonstrated, as well as 2-3 different modifications in order to cover all skill levels. All of the coaches are insanely knowledgeable, professional, approachable and just fun to be around. Despite your capabilities (and every class has a huge range-trust me), everybody is SO supportive. In addition to amazing classes, classmates and coaching, there is an amazing staff in the childcare room. I have a three year old and a very clingy one year old: I have walked in countless times (more often than not) to somebody snuggling my 1 year old and giving her great attention. I can't tell you enough how much I love being a part of the First City Crossfit community; it truly feels like a family. I have made some of my best friends in Monterey in this gym, and my children have made some of their best friends in there as well. I implore you to try it out! (you get a free week test drive--you'll be hooked!)

Douglas Lee

I was visiting my Crossfit son and he invited me to do the free trial...I suppose to bond more with him! The First City team was especially accommodating since I was an aging out-of-towner. They set me up with some challenging but appropriate workouts for me and gave me a great introduction to what Crossfit was all about. I'm impressed with their professionalism, cordial accommodation, and obvious love for this kind of exercise. I'd highly recommend the 5-day free trial to see what Crossfit is up to in Monterey!

Clinton Robertson

Every member of the staff is great at making you feel welcome and comfortable but they will push you too. They're here to help you safely push your limits. My first class I was a little nervous but Kyle really took the time to be right there with me, patiently giving me advice and making sure I was good to go. At the end the owner took the time to find me and welcome me and offer his assistance. I'm stoked from my experience. My ass is whooped, but stoked!

Diane Newman

My husband and I were in Monterey visiting our son. We went to First City CrossFit gym for a morning workout. The coach, Jay, and owner, Frank, were incredibly welcoming and very helpful to us. The facility and equipment are great, and the routine was carefully crafted to challenge us, yet meet our needs. This is an awesome place to workout in Monterey and we will be back next time we visit.

Gerald D. Vinci

I joined First City CrossFit in April of 2014. I've worked out next to some amazing athletes as well as others who were just starting out on their fitness journey and I have to say everyone I've met and everyone who has dedicated themselves to CrossFit loves this CrossFit box. FCCF is warm, inviting, kid-friendly, and genuinely concerned with making sure every workout is specifically tailored to your needs and your fitness level. I was intimidated by CrossFit for a long time because I only saw it as a super intense, highly competitive environment. But its nothing like that at all. CrossFit is fun, it's team oriented, and I've never known such a wonderful group of people all collectively contributing to make the experience better for everyone than I have at First City CrossFit. Frank, and all the coaches have truly made their box a home away from home for me and many others. I also love the fact that they are so focused on Mobility and Recovery. We probably spend as much time warming up regularly as we do during the intense part of each workout, and because of this injuries have been virtually non-existent for me and many of my classmates. You've got nothing to lose by joining this gym and everything to gain in my opinion!

Bob Seaman

My wife and I recently joined FirstCity crossfit. We came by to check out the place one day and we were blown away by the welcoming attitude of everyone there! My wife had the pleasure of working with Frank, the owner, learning some of the basics. At first she was nervous but now she is hooked like me!! You learn a lot about yourself and realize, with the help of the awesome and patient coaches there, that anyone can do Crossfit! Don’t let it intimidate you no matter what age, how inexperienced or out of shape you are. It has really helped improve my swimming and biking already! The coaches encourage you, support you and push you to your limits to progress. I love the sense of a close knit environment and community. We both love it and always look forward to heading to class!

Nadia Krasner

I dropped in with 2 friends last week and had a great experience! Not only is it a nice facility, but both the coach for the WOD, Tamara (spelling?) and the owner Frank we're awesome, Tamara took the time to watch us and coach us, despite being drop-ins, was friendly and welcoming, the and pushed us to stick with a heavier weight than we normally would, but not outside what was within our abilities (our/us because it was a 3 person partner WOD), since we're planning on visiting Monterey area more often, we'll definitely be back! It was my first time dropping in at another gym, and couldn't have asked for a better experience :) thanks!

Valarie Seita

This is an amazing Crossfit gym and community. The coaches are top notch, the facility/equipment are great, and everyone here is very welcoming. Whether you're looking for structured classes or open gym, this is an awesome place to workout in Monterey!

Melody Schmutz

Great gym with awesome coaching staff! Intentional coaching that has really helped me grow as an athlete! My kiddos had fun in the childcare the gym offered while I got my workout done. Nearly 2 years here! Will definitely miss this community!

Jessica Benton

FCCF is one of the BEST boxes I’ve ever been to. The biggest difference from other gyms is the care of the facility and equipment along with the incredible coaches. This place is so welcoming and encourages people from all walks of life to workout together.

Dallas Battle

This gym has such a wonderful vibe. It's very well-kept, has thoughtful & informed coaches, & a genuine community. It also offers so many options to accommodate you; daycare, competitive training, weightlifting focus, hypertrophy (muscle building) focus, metcon focus, mobility classes, etc. as well as workshops to help you as an athlete (most recently, learning Rossiter!). High quality products are offered & there is "unusual" equipment that is amazing- like an inversion table, Crossover Symmetry, yoke, & reverse hyper machine. Everyone is super friendly & Frank does an amazing job keeping the gym running smoothly.

Ada B

I'm very picky when it comes to a crossfit gym, but I'm really loving this place. I initially emailed before going to get an idea of the gym's vibe and to my surprise the owner contacted me back! He was super helpful and really listened and answered all my questions. After a few lengthy email exchanges I decided to give it a try. They work with you to make sure your form is on point, scale things to your personal pace and abilities and are super helpful with any questions. I would rate it 6 stars if I could.
