Amazing gym! I’ve been Crossfitting and coaching on and off, mostly off, since 2009. In that time I’ve been to several gyms across the US and I can say, without a doubt, CrossFit Southie is by far the best gym. The gym has nailed it in multiple areas. The coaches are trained extremely well and very well versed in all the movements. I’ve always had a good coach at a gym but it’s usually one or two not the entire staff, which is the case at CrossFit Southie. For all movements, the coach will , without fail, go through the breakdown of the movement, monitor your movements and correct (gently) as needed. In addition to knowing their craft every coach that has trained me is positive, encouraging and kind. I’ve never felt out of place or awkward for not knowing something or doing something incorrectly. The gym space is also massive so plenty of room to workout and stretch as needed. The workouts themselves are tough but manageable and scaleable to your level. Multiple levels of a workout are offered - all the way from fire breather to I’ve never done CrossFit, please help! Since being here (joined less than a year ago) I have personal bested nearly of my lifts. The lifts I haven’t are because I’ve been hesitant due to prior injury. Socials and competitions are also regularly planned, so if you’re looking for more than a gym that is an option also. I’ve been to several and had a blast. And, last but certainly not least, the members are wonderful. The atmosphere cultivated by the gym owners is welcoming and warm. I’ve been to cliquish gyms where you feel like an outsider. Not the case here. The members are fantastic. They will cheer you on in a grueling workout and encourage you to push yourself. If you’re looking for the best coaching, the best workouts, and a fantastic group atmosphere CrossFit Southie is for you! Come on in and...
Read moreMy wife and I have undergone personal training with Goose and Sarah for the last 6 months, and we could not be happier with our experience. CrossFit Southie offers a welcoming atmosphere for those new to CrossFit (like us) and does a great job of teaching new skills and offering a clear path towards athletic advancement.
My training has been with Goose, and I can without a doubt say that I am in the best shape of my life. Goose does a great job of understanding my fitness progression and pushes me just past what I think I am capable of. He listens to my feedback, tailors our workouts to my goals, and adjusts for the specific needs of my body. He communicates well and does a great job teaching me techniques I never thought I would be capable of. Rope climbs, head stand holds, split jerks and snatches are all movements I could not do before working out with him. Goose is always professional, friendly and is a fun workout partner.
This is the most athletic I have ever felt in my life, and I look forward to continuing my progression with the help of the CrossFit...
Read moreI started CrossFit at CFS 6 years ago, had to move across country 2 years later and since have been to maaannnnyyy other CrossFit gyms around the country. CFS is by far the most professionally run gym I’ve been to in that time.
I can’t speak highly enough of Goose and Amys knowledge and kindness. The facilities are top tier and the gym is always clean. The programming is well considered, and they are continually doing things to bring more value to their members.
Personal health can be tricky, and what really sets them apart is knowing when to loop in field experts. Many CrossFit gyms offer nutrition advice by a person who isn’t qualified to do so (a regular CrossFit coach), but CFS has a registered dietitian (who is also a member ;) ), that works with members during nutrition challenges to ensure the changes people are making are healthy.
A friend of mine just started at CFS and is having an amazing time, so I felt compelled to come back and give CFS props 6 years later for all of the amazing work they...
