Just like Cleveland, Sixth City rocks! Okay, that was super corny, but really, Sixth City is an…read moreawesome place to get your fitness on, and I'm fortunate to have been a member of this incredible community for two years now. One thing that truly sets CSC apart is the fact that no matter your fitness level, the coaches will pay attention to you, help you through your bad habits, and they legitimately want you to succeed. They don't spend all of their time with newbies nor do they spend all of their time with the more experienced athletes, instead, everyone gets personal attention and help where they need it most. Some people complain about the price of a crossfit membership, but with a basic understanding of the product, you'll see that it's well worth it. CSCs coaches take all the hard work out of staying fit--they plan the workouts for you, help you through your weaknesses and encourage you when you want to quit. Beyond that, they take a genuine interest in getting to know you. Bonus points--the gym is in a super convenient location if you work downtown.

I started CrossFit 2 years ago. From being a couch potato to working out 3-4 times per week, it's…read morebeen a big change. It has made a positive difference in my lifestyle, eat healthy, work out regularly. No work out is easy, everyday you leave with your butt being kicked and realizing how much more there is to achieve. The facility is excellent, coaches are well versed in CrossFit. The emphasis is on ensuring you do it right. The programming led by Jeff, Adam & Katie is adaptive and helps address your shortcomings. So if you want to get fit, improve your strength & conditioning - CrossFit Sixth City is the place to be at. I endorse CSC without any reservations. Addendum: 6/14 CSC has added weekly yoga classes. These are held every Thursday, led by a certified yoga instructor. I find them very complimentary to CrossFit especially with mobility. The yoga classes are open to all & cost $5/session.

Awesome new Crossfit box! The coaches here know what they are talking about! They don't care about…read morehow heavy you are lifting, they are more concerned about proper form and not hurting yourself, yet still giving it all you got! The community here is unreal. Everyone is so friendly!!! You will seriously feel like family when you get here! I know they will be working on getting more class times for the morning, afternoon, and evenings! They will also be getting child care if members will utilize it! I highly urge you to come and check us out!!

This review is long overdue. I recently moved to and them from Cleveland, spending only nine months…read morein the city. The decision to join Ctown was the best thing to happen to me in my time there. I had not done crossfit before and had been a lifelong in and out of the gym kind of guy. Never fully committing for longer than a few months at a time. From the minute I walked in and met Larry the owner, I knew my life was about to change. Ctown focuses on form first and foremost and under the leadership of head coach R.E. has built a solid reputation and family like atmosphere that was more welcoming than I could ever imagine. The group sizes varied, but even at its largest of 15 you still got individualized attention from the coaches throughout the workout. Being new, I was worried about not being able to keep up with the workouts, but scalability is also important to Ctown. The coaches offered modifications for almost every workout, still pushing you to try and complete it as prescribed. I was only there for a few months, but got into the best shape of my life and was driven by not only the coaches, but my fellow athletes. Yes, you do truly feel like an athlete, no matter how you look. There's no egos at Ctown, everyone is in it together and you build a great comradery that is driven by the caring personalities of the coaches who drive and inspire you as you go. I met lifelong friends in only a few months, got into the best shape of my life and never felt like I was part of a "cult" like atmosphere like some skeptics of crossfit would say. I owe R.E., Larry and the team at Ctown much gratitude for taking in a new kid in town and turning out a dedicated, more motivated and better individual in the end. If you are thinking of starting crossfit or looking for a new box to join, I could not recommend a better place and better people to be with. Whether downtown or in Fairview Park, Ctown is the best in Cleveland hands down.

My first drop-in was an evening class with coach Marques who was awesome. My second was a Saturday class that was very challenging and very fun. Jodi and Michael, the owners, were very welcoming and the general vibe was so friendly. Highly recommended.

I have been a member of CrossFit I/O for two years now. It is, by far, the most well rounded gym I…read morehave ever been a member of. I have a deep respect for the owners - their commitment to fitness, safety and cleanliness. I would recommend this gym to any fitness level. Why I love this gym: 1. It is not a bro-y gym. There are folks of every fitness level who are committed to improving themselves. No one will judge you here based on your current level of fitness. We are all just trying to improve ourselves and have fun doing it. 2. It is a safety-first gym. Jodi will go over every second of every movement to make sure you know how to perform the lift. And if the form needs to improve, she'll tell ya that too. But even her critiques come from a place of concern for safety. 3. Friendship. I moved to Cleveland Heights without knowing anyone - in CrossFit I/O I found friendship. Join, commit, and you will too. 4. It is a clean gym. I cannot stress this enough. Each piece of equipment gets cleaned after every workout. I have walked past the gym late at night to find the owners deep-cleaning the gym on multiple occasions. Their hard work on cleanliness means a lot to me. 5. It's about cardio first. I am out of breath after every workout. So is everyone else. This is the sign of a good gym. To the owners of CrossFit I/O - Thank you for giving me a home for my fitness. To people considering joining a gym - I urge you to stop by. It's a good place to work out.

The owner called me back right away and was so pleasant over the phone. We dropped in at a few gyms in the area before making our decision to sign up with CFD. Why we chose this gym over the other neighboring CrossFit gyms: 1. The coach and members always greet you and say hello. Being new to any community can be nerve wracking. When you walk in and are greeted with a simple hello and a genuine interest in you, it matters. Everyone is so encouraging and supportive. 2. The gym is sooooo clean and spacious. It is very well kept and equipment is high quality and well maintained. 3. Great programming and coaching. Whether you are new to CF or an expert, the workouts are programed to suit your fitness needs and goals. If you're thinking about it, come give CFD a try. You will be so glad you did!

Crossfit Distinction is THE place to be for crossfit training. Besides creating monsters that…read morecompete in the CF games, the trainers are excellent and are very knowledgeable and friendly. The stigma of crossfit is "everyone gets injured." Yeah that is true but like everything if you train wrong and were taught wrong, you will get hurt. At CFD the coaches/trainers will call people out on bad form so no one under their watch gets injured. They will be starting Crossfit Kids soon so it is a family friendly location too. Whether your goals are to lift, run or just get into shape, Crossfit Distinction is a well rounded gym that will help anyone reach their goals.

The workouts are varied, keeping you interested and making sure that you don't hit any plateaus when looking at results. Patrick and Staci are excellent trainers and they make sure execution of movement is proper to avoid the possibility of injury. They are tough and make you work hard, but also modify if and when necessary. Their main goal is to get you in shape in the fastest, safest way possible, and they are doing that with me (4% body fat lost in 6 weeks - and counting!). This place is FANTASTIC! I plan on staying for the long haul!

With Covid precautions, there is no rotation stations. Youre assigned a station and watch your corresponding monitor to tell you what exercise you're doing... they've already set your station up with everything you'll need for that day's workout. M/W/F are more cardio based days (think jump squats, burpees, box jumps) and T/Th/Sun are more resistance / weight days. Saturday is a 60 min combo. Coaches (and everyone attending) are very thoughtful about their masks, it feels safe inside considering how far away you are from others.
