I've been doing crossfit for about a year and working out at CF Insanity for 8 months. The results, for me, have been outstanding and I look forward to every work out. Its amazing how your body will rise to the challenge. My goal initially was just to "get fit" and not necessarily to go for heavy lifts. But now I find myself passionate about the sport because of the progress I see and feel. It's real and obvious. I still have sessions where I improve on some of the Olympic lifts by 15% or more, which just make me want to reach further the next go around. I've leaned out, feel strong, have way more energy, am cognitively sharper , and just feel "ready for anything". In fact, a surprise for me it just how much fun it is to be in this kind of shape. Its affected me on many levels. The coaches at CF Insanity are great. Each have their own style and personality to keep things fun and interesting and they are great teachers and motivators. Some of my best progress on lifts have come from targeted correction of my form by one of the coaches, which then helped me put things together to get the benefits I should be getting and not get hurt. They are regularly introducing new moves and routines. The coaches are also very open to work with you "where you are at" whether you a competitive athlete (and the gym has a number of them - both male and female), or just starting out. One of the things I like is that the stretching part of the warm up is guided and varies from day to day, and there is a dedicated time each session for skill building or strength training on one or more lifts or moves, before you get into the high intensity workout. I really love the atmosphere and energy level at CF Insanity. And the music! Once the instruction and skill building is done, and it is time to jam on the Work Out of the Day - one of the coaches turns up the volume unit you feel it and you get down to business. I love it. I turn 51 in a few months. A year ago, I could not get through a warm up, let alone a work out. Now I am close to the best shape I have been in since I was a wrestler in high school and I am still progressing. A big "thank you" to the team at CF Insanity! Don't let your age or current state of fitness psyche you out - you can do this! Life is too short - get fit and live well. read more

I'm a pro-figure competitor and used to do crossfit as my "cross-training" aside of my weight training and conditioning. I must say after doing crossfit, I have one "FOCUS" because doing this training, I target every muscle and i get a cardio kick while i'm at it. I have decreased my BF by 6% in 8 wks, it used to take me 7 months to lean out for a show, and with this regimen, Im about 6 wks from competition ready! This place is amazing! Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and helpful. I had been going to other crossfit gyms here and there, but the second I walked in, I felt like I was part of the group. They are all super motivating, knowledgeable and they really push you to break your best and become better every day! I love that they are animal lovers too, they have 2 beautiful Boxers!! I came to check it out and, I stayed!! I'm a Zumba instructor and with jokes and laughs they said Zumba was bull*** but I got them to do a class with me and they were all awesome!! In 8 weeks that I have been going there, I've broken 3 personal records on deadlift, back squat and clean!! Thanks guys!! read more

After moving to Irvine from San Diego I had to find a new box and after trying a few out Crossfit Insanity was by far the best. The coaches and community are just excellent. First of all the coaches really care, they don't just tell you what the WOD is and walk away like some of the others I went to did. They are very thorough with their instruction and are continuously helping you improve. I have seen amazing results and gains in the past 8 months! The second part that is so welcoming is the community they have built, the members are some of the nicest people and I have truly gained so many new friends from joining. There are always fun social events going on outside the box from birthdays to holiday parties that strengthen that sense of community even more. I am so happy with the choice I made joining Crossfit Insanity and am so grateful to everything they have made possible. read more

Did I tell you I look forward going to CFI after a long stressful day from work? I can't believe I am saying it, but I am.. I used to say I love cycling over other sports, but after I found CF, cycling is my second go to sport. CF kicks my butt every time I go, I got sore the next day, I can hardly move BUT I still look forward going to the next class and the class after. I love my coaches, everyone one of them know what I am capable to do, if I tried to sneak in a lighter weight because I didn't think I was able to do, they are always there to remind me that I can do better. Their words of encouragement, the confident they have in me make me and push me to work harder. The friends I made @ CFI are great, I love everyone one of them. If you want to try out crossfit, call Crossfit Insanity, I promise you that you will love it. read more

You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great. Real CAMARADERIE in this box. I love this place, it is my second home, I feel like I am a part of something. I would sleep there if they would let me. No gimmicks, No BS. Just show up, work hard and you will see results. We're all there for one reason - to look better naked! Ok I'm kidding but that is an added bonus to training crossfit. The coaches are awesome, amazing, bad ass, not enough adjectives to describe the coaches. They know their sh#t! They care about their clients. The atmosphere is great too, everyone is friendly and motivating. If all you know is lifting weights or a spin class at 24 Hr Fitness then you owe it to yourself to come check out Crossfit Insanity. read more

I've been to many Crossfit Gyms all over Southern California, Northern California and even in Wisconsin and nothing compares to Crossfit Insanity in Irvine, CA. They have a set of knowledgeable, thorough and motivating coaches, programming that is well thought out and always a killer full body workout, & the best and full set of equipment. Not only is it a great place for a workout but you also make wonderful friends there, friends that are like-minded and motivating people, often times cheering their peers on as they finish their "wod" work out of the day. If you are looking for a place to get stronger, build your endurance, fun & non-monotonous workouts, and to make great friends... Crossfit Insanity is where you need to be! read more

CrossFit Insanity....helping to kick my ass since March 2010. When I started training with the CFI trainers in March of 2010, I could barely do a few pull ups due to a previous shoulder injury from mountain biking. Last week I completed 165 pull ups unassisted as part of a 20 minute work out. I have not had the same workout in over 9 months. Challenging my body in a different way every day has got me in the best shape of my life. These guys know what they're doing, and every workout is tailored to the individual to motivate you to reach limits you thought weren't possible. I actually look forward to each workout especially with the opening of their new facility in Irvine. read more
