CrossFit ATP — Local services in Charlotte

I can’t recommend CFATP enough. This box has it all! Great space/location, wonderful coaches, awesome programming, new equipment, wonderful members, and an amazing sense of community! But if you like reading longer reviews, this is why I love CFATP…

I have been doing Crossfit for a number of years now and life has forced me to move and adjust from one box to another. When I first started I wasn’t able to shop for boxes like I can now. Now, there are a number of options near me for Crossfit so when we moved to our new house and joined the neighborhood I tried a few of them out. If I’m being honest, they were all pretty great. Outfitted with nice/new equipment, well maintained facilities, etc. But in every case there was just something that was missing.

At the time, I didn’t know anything about CFATP, it’s members, coaching, or its location other than it was close by. I would soon find out that this box is a true community, with so much diversity in their members, positivity in their approach, and unrelenting encouragement throughout every workout. I wish I could say that I chose CFATP for these reasons, but this box chose me. Wade welcomed me day 1 and let me check it out, stress free, and no aggressive salesman approach. I have now been a member of this gym for over a year and have loved every workout and get together with this gym since. I did say that this gym was like a community, and like it, there have been plenty of opportunities to get together to socialize and get to know one another outside of the box (Thanksgiving, meet ups at the breweries, watching the Super Bowl, etc.).

As I mentioned earlier, I have been a member at a number of boxes in the past all equipped with the knowledge to coach through movements, scaling, etc. Wade is the Head Coach at CFATP and he can do all of that and sooooooooo much more. He completely blows me away with his knowledge and his ability to translate that during our classes in ways that helps maximize our potential as athletes. Not only does he break down complex skilled movements that Crossfit is known for, but he also understands what the body wants and needs on a molecular level… yes, molecular. Degrees in Exercise Physiology and Biochemistry, there is nothing he can’t help understand or break down when it comes to Crossfit and health.

I have made some great friends here and would recommend to anyone of any skillset and exposure to Crossfit that is looking for a challenge and...

Coach Wade is extremely knowledgeable, fun, motivational and safe. CrossFit gyms can vary but Coach Wade makes this an exceptional gym. With every client he goes through a fundamentals course for an hour before you come to any workouts, and every workout has a skills portion where you dedicate time to learning proper form. During workouts, he gives his undivided attention, and in his own words, "No lift is worth weeks or months of pain." In other words, he prioritizes safety and form. If you can't do something, and are too prideful to modify, he makes you modify it anyway. If you are scared or lack confidence, he pushes and encourages you. I was one of the first 20 to join, and I am so glad I did. We all vary in our shapes, sizes, and athletic ability--it's not a "meat heads gym" -- but we all work our tails off. The workouts are tough but doable, and it's an exteremely welcoming environment both from Coach and from the members there. If you need a good group of people to motivate you and a great coach, this is the place for you to join! It is worth...

CrossFit ATP is hands down the best gym I've ever been a part of! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed by an incredible community and supportive coaches who truly care about your goals. The programming is well-structured, challenging, and scalable for all fitness levels, whether you're a beginner or an experienced athlete.

The coaches are knowledgeable, motivating, and always take the time to ensure proper form and technique, which has helped me avoid injuries and see real progress. The facility is clean, organized, and stocked with top-notch equipment.

What really sets CrossFit ATP apart is the energy and camaraderie—everyone pushes each other to be their best while having a great time. If you’re looking for a place to get stronger, fitter, and healthier, I can’t recommend CrossFit ATP enough! This gym is truly a...
