Foundry CrossFit — Local services in Palm Desert

To say we miss this box is an understatement. For the last 5 years we lived in the desert, Gene and his team of knowledgeable coaches helped me build such a solid foundation. I came into the box in 2015 with zero athletic experience, overweight, and complained about sweating too much. I now have the endurance, knowledge, and strength to do the lifts, cardio, and gymnastics, and to do things I never thought were possible. I also appreciate that muscle memory is a real thing, which has helped me sustain this healthy lifestyle as my family and I now live abroad. This in addition to hearing Gene’s, Travis’s, Tiffany’s, Sean’s, or Lynette’s voice in my head, giving me all the cues for each lift, run, movement, etc. They are extremely knowledgeable about every movement, and are always helpful in providing modifications and scaling as needed. Anytime we visit the desert, I look forward to dropping in to be around the Foundry CrossFit family again. Thank you for...

It’s rare to find a gym where every coach is “the best coach,” but that’s exactly what Foundry delivers. If you’re looking for a place that combines expertise, community, and a family-like atmosphere, Foundry...

I knew when I considered trying CrossFit I was going to "drink the Kool-Aid" as they say and fall totally in love. The variety, the challenge, and the measurable progress are hard not to love, but what I didn't expect was the COMMUNITY.

Foundry CrossFit has done a wonderful job of teaching me the skills needed for the WODs, but they have also made me feel welcomed into their community - welcomed enough to even participate in the "in-house" Foundry Open after doing CrossFit for only 4 months.

The coaches are encouraging and knowledgeable with just the right amount of push. The members are friendly and helpful - whether it is helping to teach me double-unders or making shoes suggestions. They...
