Motivating coaches, plenty of classes, fun community, challenging workouts! I've been at CF LosAl now for 6 months and dropped into quite a few other CF boxes, and I can say with confidence that CF Los Al is a cut above. For context, my very first workout I didn't even finish. I was so intimidated by the running, I was completely out of breath, and I had no idea what "clean and Jerk" or "power snatch" meant. We were supposed to run 400m but I just ran 200m. We were supposed to use barbells and I just used dumbbells. We were supposed to do 4 rounds and I just did 2.5 rounds. I was exhausted and unbearably sore the next day, and the 3 days following. I decided to go out on a limb and try the first three months and sign up even though it was more expensive than I was comfortable with, but I wanted the motivation and to go out of my comfort zone. The coaches Dave, James, Larry, Taylor, Daniel, Madi, and others were all incredibly supportive of me being a beginner at CrossFit and made sure to explain everything carefully since I didn't know the lingo. They answered my questions patiently and encouraged me to push myself. After a month I tried to go every other day and it was brutal, and after two months I started going 6 days per week and have enjoyed every moment! I lost 50 lbs and gained confidence I never did at a normal gym like 24 hour or la fitness, and I PR'd by a significant amount in every single exercise. I'm the fittest and strongest and most confident that I've ever been, and I owe so much to the community and coaches here at CrossFit Los Al! Can't recommend more!! read more

I have been doing CrossFit for about 4 years now. I got into it as I started personal training after I got my degree in Kinesiology. Over the years I have gone from personal training, competing in CrossFit, coaching it and now managing a gym. No CrossFit gym is the same, so always do your research. I have been to many gyms and I can say that CrossFit Los Al is a great gym to be a part of. I remember the first time I went to Los Al, I actually looked back to see when it was (116 weeks ago via Instagram). It was early in the morning and I was immediately welcomed. When I was foam rolling and stretching before class, members came up and introduced themselves and the coaches were very welcoming. We were put through a great warm up and lead through the class from start to finish. I have been back multiple times since and it has always been a pleasant experience. The staff is friendly and genuinely cares about people. You are more than a dollar sign. This stuff isn't about a quick fix to get that summer body, it is a lifestyle to develop and help you become better versions of yourself. You will be taken care of and treated like an individual. You can take my word for it, but I highly recommend you go in and see for yourself. read more

This is a great box! I tried another crossfit gym, but I came back to this one. Coaches Drew, Tonya, Dave & Jake are the best. Everyone is like family. I was a little aprehensive trying crossfit, as I am overweight. But everyone made me feel comfortable and welcomed me into the crossfit family. This is definitely 100 times better than a typical gym workout. Aside from running, crossfit is my new passion! Thanks CrossFit Los Al! You are changing my life, one WOD at a time! read more

This is a fantastic gym. I was very nervous starting Crossfit after a 2 year break and going to one gym for so many years. This place is it, Dave (the owner) is a great guy, I've had many tough experiences at gyms where they just want your money and make it pretty difficult. This gym truly cares they're a great group highly recommend this gym! read more

I absolutely love this new gym! After only a week of joining I already feel like everyone is family. Everybody's energy is so positive supportive and motivating it makes me want to come back for more, which is great for those who find it hard to even step out of the house. This is by far one if the best decisions I have made all year. For anyone that's interested in competing or just getting in better shape, I recommend this to all of you. You work at ur own weight level but they push u to push harder than you think u can do. What I've learned is MIND OVER MATTER. Hve a positive attitude and give it your all.... You will see amazing results in the way you think, feel, look and live ^__^ read more

I've done CrossFit off and on since 2008 and trained at multiple different gyms and my garage. Last week I was in the Los Alamitos area for work and hit up CrossFit Los Alamitos for a couple of days. Before leaving to California, I wrote to the owner Dave to check and see about dropping in. He was super helpful and got back to me FAST and welcomed my visit. When I showed up, everyone at the gym was super cool. Jake was the coach for my two day visit, and he treated me equal to any of their regular folks. The classes always had a plan, they started on time, and the programming was rock solid. The instructor was focused on everyone in the class, movement standards, and performance. If I had this gym atmosphere down the street from me in Boise, I might even leave my garage to compete and get tips. If you live in the area, you should really consider making CF Los Al your place to improve capacity. read more

When you join this box, you are not only going to get in the best shape of your life, but you are going to become part of an amazing community of athletes of all levels. In my mind, the most important thing when finding a CrossFit gym, is quality coaching. Coaches Drew, Tanya, Dave and Jake have an abundance of experience between them, and they all compete in Crossfit at an elite level. As a doctor of chiropractic who specializes in functional movement, it is awesome to see how much these coaches teach mobilization techniques and correct form with lifting. They truly care about each and every member, and push you to reach fitness goals that you never even thought were possible. If you are on the fence about starting CrossFit, just try one of their free introductory classes and trust me, you will be hooked! "Move Well. Live Well." Dr. Jack read more

I have heard nothing but great stuff about this place! I know Drew and he is an excellent trainer/motivator!!! Can't wait to show up this Sat and get my butt into shape! read more

CFLA is an awesome place to workout. The people there are super friendly and always offer support and motivation. The coaches Tanya, Drew, Dave, and Jake, make sure that you are lifting properly while pushing you towards reaching your fitness goals. The gym is always clean and organized because the consequence of not cleaning and putting away your equipment is burpees. The community that CFLA has established in unparalleled to any other gym that I've worked out at. They organize social events at least once a month to build camaraderie amongst its members. During workouts, everyone cheers each other on which creates a non-intimidating and inclusive environment. I definitely recommend checking out CFLA. You wont be disappointed. read more

As a personal trainer and exercise enthusiast, i'm all about learning new exercises and fitness techniques, however, I was skeptical when I first started hearing about Crossfit. I heard about a couple bad experiences from a few different sources and I developed a negative view about the whole idea in general. It wasn't until I saw the results from two of my close friends that I decided to look into it more. They looked absolutely amazing. Stronger, healthier, faster, you name it -and neither had any negative comments to say about the programming. About four months ago, one of those friends introduced me to Crossfit. She dragged me to a class where I did my first WOD. From that moment on, I was hooked. The next day, I began doing it on my own at the gym where I work since all the equipment was available to me. I really enjoyed doing the workouts, yet it wasn't the same type of environment that I had experienced in that first class I attended. I was lacking that motivating vibe from the coaches and other members that forces you to really push yourself to do what your body is capable of. Once Crossfit Los Al opened I decided to check it out and I can't express how happy I am that I did. Drew, Tanya, and Dustin are amazing and extremelly motivating -even in the early am classes. They help create a friendly and encouraging environment where anyone can feel welcome. I have met such an amazing group of people that are all working towards healthier and happier lifestyles. One thing I really love is that anyone can participate whether you are novice or advanced. They really know how to work with each individual and scale accordingly to ensure proper form and technique. I definately recommend trying it out because you won't regret it, and you'll meet some really awesome people in the process. read more

I've resisted the CrossFit movement for a long time...lol. But as a trainer myself, and seeing my peers around me get some major results, I decided to give it a go. BEST DECISION EVER!! CrossFit Los Al has amazing coaches and I look forward to coming every weekday! Drew is super motivating yet technical which makes a world of difference. Tanya is super encouraging and adds to the family like environment here. They are both hard core which makes you want to perform your best! Another great aspect of CrossFit Los Al is that it is SUPER CLEAN. It is a huge pet peeve of mine to work out in a filthy gym. The coaches make sure that everything is clean at the beg and end of every session. 10 thumbs up for that!! Anyway, if you are looking for a CrossFit gym to join, this is your place. They will take you from the beginning baby steps to as far as you need/want to go. See you there! read more

This box is awesome! I am a member at another gym but drop in here from time to time to work out with some buddies. The trainers know what they're talking about, the classes are very structured and make the most out of the time you spend there. The gym is super clean, the members are very friendly and welcoming. If you haven't tried Crossfit before, this is the place to do it. Trainers will spend quality time with you and teach you the moves. They also had awesome music, which makes a huge difference in my workouts (duh) and they fed me a cake pop after class. (!!!!!!) I'll definitely be going back! (For the workouts, not just the cake pops.) read more

I took a two year break from Crossfit, so you could say I started back a little (or a lot) rusty. The coaches at Crossfit Los Al are very motivating and make sure you're starting right from the beginning...with correct form, and they push you hard! Dave is a great motivator to get your workout done, even at 6am. Everyone at the gym is friendly, helpful and it's exciting to be part of a group of people that all have one end goal, to get fit and live a healthier lifestyle. I highly suggest you check this gym out! read more

Crossfit Los Al has been a great place to train. In these past three weeks that I have been a member, I feel stronger, more agile, and have lost weight. Drew and Tanya are great motivators and push you to always do you best. If you feel like taking a chance on crossfit, this is a great place to start. Come check out a free class and you will want to keep coming back. The community we have is very friendly and motivated to get fit! You will see results fast! read more

Crossfit Los Al is AMAZING!!! Drew is an amazing trainer! I have lost 5lbs in 3 weeks! Love it!!!

I was so nervous to do something like crossfit but this place is great! No matter the level that you are starting at you will feel stronger and stronger every single week. The coaches are great! So supportive and make sure to teach you how to do the moves so that you do them right! I understand now when people rave about crossfit. Crossfit Los Al is the best! read more

I have been doing CrossFit for a few years now and have been to several different gyms. Not only that, I own my own gym and I make an effort to pay extra attention to the little details that make a gym great. I have been to CrossFit Los Alamitos several times to drop in and a couple of other times for competitions. I have enjoyed every single experience. The coaching staff there is attentive and knowledgeable regardless of whether or not you have 3 years of experience or 3 days. The owner genuinely loves his members and you can tell based on the amount of effort he puts into having a great facility with a great staff. I recommend CrossFit Los Alamitos to anyone interested in getting into CrossFit within the area. read more

I was never one who really "enjoyed" working out. To me, it has always been such a chore, however, after hearing allll about crossfit, I finally decided to suck it up and try it out..."maybe this will work." and so far, it has! I love everything about this crossfit gym. I've never been more motivated to work out, push myself, and work towards fitness goals I never had. The coaches are amazing and encourage you to try your hardest each and every work out. Crossfit Los Al is a new gym, or "box" as they call it, and everyone is so nice. I have never felt as though someone may be competing against me or being negative...all you hear during class is "come on kristen, you got this! keep pushing through it" and other words of encouragement. All i can say is, you should definitely give Crossfit Los Al a try. IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE :) read more

Fantastic box, great coaches and an awesome welcoming community!! I was traveling from Alaska and planned on doing a box tour during my stay. Hit this box and stayed the whole trip. Coach's (David & Jake) were motivating and knowledgable coaches with great enthusiasm for their members. The members themselves were just phenomenal. They were so welcoming, I forgot I was a visitor at their box. I'll definitely return to this box!! read more
