East End Athletic Club is AMAZING! I have so many wonderful things to say about this place and these people, so buckle up for a long review.
I have always been intimated by lifting and Leah, Beau, and the whole team have really helped ease me into it and build my confidence. I'm brand new to crossfit and they have invested their time in teaching form and correctness.
Another testament to this gym is the community they have and are building here. This is the friendliest gym I've ever been to where every member is supportive of the other and you can tell their goal is to build people up. The people working out with you aren't just doing their own thing, but are willing to encourage and help the person next to them.
They encourage a better lifestyle overall as well. I have a chronic knee injury which has really improved by working on my strength here. I can also feel my health improving because the coaches at East End try to encourage and keep you accountable while implementing healthier choices, especially in your diet. They aren't pushing anything or judging anyone, but merely aiming to help others feel good in their daily life.
All this to say: JOIN EAST END ATHLETIC CLUB. You...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWhat a sweaty workout GEM in EADO. I met Leah and Colin outside of the gym. We hit it off and they were so nice. They told me to come check out METCON Fitness Studio for a workout. Coincidentally, I had the next day off of work. I decided to do a drop in for the 10 am BANG glass - very appropriate name for the sweat sesh that was about to ensue.
First things first, parking was a plenty. Walked right in and was greeted by a cute doggo. Alright, I love this place already. It took about 1 min to fill out my waiver form and sign up for the class. A very seamless process. Frist 3 classes are complimentary!
The workout was great. It was a small group setting. There was 6 of us in total. We started with the warm up. After that we partnered up and then we basically split reps for each of the exercises. I liked that aspect - a sense of camaraderie and competition was definitely there. The workout took roughly 75 minutes from start to finish.
I would definitely recommend this gym if you're into supporting local biz and not going to a generic big box gym. This is a place to improve your health and physique and make friends too. Oh and the music is awesome! Give this place a shot and you...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSo glad I came across this hidden gem located in the heart of the East End area! I just started this past April but I can seriously go on and on about this place with nothing but good things to say. All of the coaches I have met are amazing in their own unique way, and are great at observing your performance to ensure you are using the proper form. Oh and very patient š I'm still learning all of the moves. Everyone is so welcoming and positive! I'm eager to learn more about Cross fit and to see how my body can transform with it. All of the workouts are great and will push you out of your comfort zone while leaving you w so much...
