Have been going to this gym for over a year, so this review is long overdue…read more Headstrong combines everything you love about SLO and gym culture. Like most of SLO, everyone is incredibly friendly - from the staff to the coaches that will go out of their way to introduce themselves and always say hi when they see you in the gym. They have developed a community that only comes from continued and deliberate effort. They regularly host events to keep growing this community and you can see its size and strength at the 9am Saturday classes. This gym nailed the warehouse aesthetic while also keeping weight-lifters in mind. I have never had an issue finding a squat rack, which I can't say about any other gym I have been to. The free weights/dumbbells go in to the high 100s, where most gyms cap at 95/100lbs. In the warmer weather the outdoor turf-lined area is one of my favorite perks that I've also never had in other gyms. This place is a gym that's designed by people who actually use the gym and make it a point to continue making improvements for its members. If you need a gym that's more than just a place to work out, check out Headstrong.

I'm a senior who started CrossFit a few years ago to build up my core, improve bone density and…read moreincrease my overall wellbeing. Crossfit did all that and more for me. I was in SLO taking care of my mom, and had found Inferno on Instagram beforehand. So impressed with how badass the owner was I realized HAD to get my a** there! Definitely wasn't disappointed! What a great box, and boy what a blessing to be able to workout while away from home in my favorite place. Inferno is amazing, it's literally around the corner from the airport and the energy of the place is uber cool. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, motivating, encouraging and good hearted. The workouts are excellent, the music is awesome and the fellowship with everyone there is truly heartwarming. If you live near this place, stop scrolling the phone, get off the couch and drive down to Inferno and watch your body, mind and life change for the better. Are you mentally struggling? CrossFit is more than just fitness--it's cognitive behavior therapy--in which one is able to adopt healthier life perspectives after an hour of hard earned sweat...and the benefits are longer lasting. You start where you're at and the sky is the limit. So glad I found this gem while I was there. I can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for letting me join in.

I have been attending classes at Crossfit Grover Beach for over a year. I have certainly enjoyed…read moremy time at CFGB, especially after attending classes at the other local box, Obsidian Crossfit (would also rate them 4 out of 5). The atmosphere is a tad more laid-back than other crossfit gyms in the area. The owner personally trains the majority of classes, and is always available for, and receptive to, feedback. He has consistently added classes (or opened his gym early) when a demand rises from his clients. Crossfit Grover Beach (CFGB) has multiple trainers. Several of the trainers are former clients, who have received certification and now instruct, in addition to competing at an amateur level in local and national competition. These folks are supportive, helpful, and knowledgeable in fitness, nutrition, and general wellness. CFGB does earn a 4-star rating in my book, due to a negative performance in the 2013 Crossfit Open competition. The trainers did not pay close enough attention to the requirements for a complete movement, and their top athlete was disqualified from the open for this reason. That athlete has proven himself this year, and is on the road to redemption for the entire box' reputation. It was a simple thing, to look at the clarification in the rules, and ensure that all athletes met the requirement, but the company has taken steps to ensure better practices henceforth. :::Edit::: I don't know why my location is posted as "Hanford," I live in Oceano. That is all for this edit.

I knew I've wanted to start up CrossFit for some time, but always made excuses why I couldn't make the time or was afraid it would be too hard. I'm thankful that Josh was extremely responsive and supportive of my decision to start at RRCF with the OnRamp sessions which helped me start out with the basics of what CrossFit is about. He was super flexible with my schedule to accommodate the classes. Today marks my first full week of CrossFit and I am so amazed by all the support from the coaches to include Kacy, Jaclyn and Val. I'm super thankful for this community that doesn't just focus on getting in shape, but maintaining a balanced lifestyle overall and continuous self improvement. I'm excited to continue with this great local community which has a location in both Soledad and Monterey

The app is awesome, unlocks the door and schedules everything. There seem to be lots of incentives to go often and get fit.

Shawn gave me a call after I signed up, took the time to answer all my questions about CrossFit, and has been nothing but genuine and enthusiastic since day one. Hans is a killer coach--always positive, always pushing you to get better, and super supportive if you're ready to challenge yourself. I've had the best workout experience here in just the past 45 days. No question, I'll be dropping in for classes anytime I'm back in town. Highly recommend OneLife!
