Before I joined Crossfit26, I had never done Crossfit style workouts. I looked all around STL at different gyms and Crossfit26 has the BEST intro program. Most the other gyms have one or two into classes, but at Crossfit26 you get 8 intro classes. The reason for this is the owners, Mike and E, want to make sure you know how to properly perform all the movements before you join the actual classes.
Other then the intro classes, the community at the gym is incredible. If it is your first time, the coach makes sure to have everyone introduce themselves. Mike and E do a great job of making everyone feel welcome. They set up gym outings to help get the members and coaches to interact with one another outside the gym. All the coaches and other members are great people and want to see you succeed.

The CrossFit 26 family makes sure you have a challenging and diverse workout that is individualized to you to help you meet your own personal goals. Along with that, the community feel at CrossFit 26 is something I have not found at any other gym and they made me feel like a part of their crew, even though I was a drop-in. I'll definitely be back the next...
Read moreJoining CrossFit 26 has been a beneficial experience. From the on-ramp process to the first class that I participated in, the staff at CrossFit 26 has been attentive and supportive of me and my fitness goals. Each instructor has taken the time to get to know me, my strengths, and weaknesses, and takes time to affirm the things I do well while strategically helping me correct the things that need work.
The other class participants are just as friendly and helpful as the instructors. When I began, I was tentative and wondered how people would perceive me. My fears were put to rest after the first week. The other class participants are encouraging and supportive.
Daily I am challenged to dig deep and achieve more than I did the day before through a welcoming and supportive...
