CrossFit Passaic Valley — Attraction in Totowa

I have a true but funny story as to how I found this place, totally by accident. Pre-pandemic there was TD Bank right across the street. It was was Saint Pats and there is a bar next door, and I see the patrons of the bar beer, in hand, cigs in mouth, and what looks like Olympic triathletes working out next door in the street. The two side by side looked hysterical on a winter morning. I mean, I see them running in like 20 degree weather it just looked crazy, while the patrons puffed away. I thought to myself you'll never catch me doing that! Well I am now a member for 4 months and I love it. The owners are the nicest people. The main owner is Pete and he is the nicest, funniest guy.

The coaches are true professionals and are always watching and giving individual pointers to fix your posture etc, and know exactly which modifications work best if you have surgeries or other issues.

I moved from NYC and have been coming for a little over 8 months now. I had joined others that were intimidating or just focused on their best students, which left me feeling discouraged. But at CFPV I’m motivated to come consistently and am finally achieving my fitness and weight loss goals. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone and everyone wanting to get in great shape, and also be part of a warm and welcoming gym...

This is such an amazing gym. The members treat each other like family. The gyn is extremely clean and the owner always follows covid guidelines. If you’re looking for motivation, this is where you start. I am a single mom of three and making it to the gym could be difficult. The owner Pete always makes sure to reach out and ask how my fitness goals are going. The owners card about you as...
