OxFit has been my gym home for over a year now and I couldn't be happier. My fitness regimen before consisted of cardio only, so I wanted to add weight training. I was a little intimidated at first but everyone is so welcoming! I've never thought of myself as "strong" but I am learning my potential and am excited about my results.
The class-structure is motivating for my workout style. If I had a regular gym membership, I would probably be using machines and be bored out of my mind. At OxFit I am part of a group of diverse people who are all doing the same hard workouts. Everyone does the same workout each day (that often consists of 2-3 parts), and that workout is offered at multiple times throughout the day to fit a variety of schedules. The workouts include a combination of cross-training, HIIT, functional fitness, weightlifting, and cardio.
The coaches who lead the classes take the time to go over each movement in detail before the workout, which is super important to me because I want to avoid injury. They are encouraging, help you with your form, and also suggest modifications for any component that causes discomfort or pain. I highly recommend OxFit for anyone who wants to get stronger...
Read moreMy wife and I have been attending Ant and Lauren's other gym, OxFit Grant Street, since April of 2017, and now that they have a location in EAV, we are happy to have another option as we live smack dab in the middle in Ormewood Park. It's easy to join in at the new EAV location because they do a great job of creating a community and culture that is caring, inclusive, and supportive independent of the location. It's great to know that we can step into this new space and show up every day to meet folks new and old to the community who are driven to be better in myriad ways big and small. Additionally, they have created a community in the OxWork space next door that is full of hard-working, motivated entrepreneurs, and the overlap between the communities isn't accidental. A community of wellness is about more than success in the gym or at work alone, after all. There are plenty of ways to get fit, but for us, joining this community was about wellness and connectedness in a broader sense. I have no regrets and many more aspirations than before, so I know it's working. If you're reading this and unsure, come by and see...
Read moreFor me, OXFIT is more than just a gym. I am approaching my 2 year anniversary with this community and like so many others I can easily hands down say that ever since I found my strength to walk through those doors, my life has been changed for the better. To be able to show up each day and be surrounded by people who are all choosing to work on becoming the best version of themselves and have fun while doing is truly a gift. The consistency of culture and quality is carried through every aspect of this gym. From programming and coaching all the way to social events like Grub Club, Beers and Barbells or an occasional Pickleball Tournament. You know you can expect community, fun, and above all else RESULTS!! To no longer be limited by my own body while making decisions in my life has created ripples through out it. You are given the autonomy to work each workout within the realms of your own capabilities. You are encouraged, you are supported, and you are accepted. I didn’t know what was going to happen walking into my first class but I can confidently say that because of OXFIT I am truly healthy, happy and harder...
