I recently tried out Crossfit Terminus and I was not very impressed. This box has plenty of space to accommodate the small classes, but there are other boxes in the area with better equipment (and a lower monthly rate). Crossfit Terminus requires you to take two to four weeks of foundation classes before working out with the rest of the gym at scheduled times. The class I attended was a foundation class (they let you try one for free before joining). Most Crossfit boxes do require you to take a foundation class or two before joining, but 2-4 weeks seems outrageous to me. I have been crossfitting for awhile and I filled out a survey before coming to this box but I felt like none of my previous experience was taken into consideration. Quite frankly the class I attended was a joke. I understand scaling workouts down to accommodate mobility or form issues, but I left this gym feeling unsatisfied. Emily is one of the main coaches and taught the class I attended. She was knowledgable and fun. She had a lot of good advice on my form for rowing and pushups, as did Ben (the other main coach). However knowledgable he was, Ben was not friendly at all and he was borderline rude to me, and the box members I worked out with didn't seem very welcoming. Crossfit Terminus definitely has quality coaching, but I could not get past the rude factor as well as the many required foundation classes. Part of the reason I do crossfit is because I love the class atmosphere and camaraderie (as well as a grueling workout). I have been to a lot of gyms and if you're looking for a crossfit gym I would absolutely try out other boxes in the area before committing to this one. Perhaps if you're a beginner this is a good place to try, but if you're a more advanced Crossfitter I would take your business elsewhere. read more

Crossfit Terminus - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Came in as a drop in guest and one of the owners gave me a blank stare as if I came from a different planet. Told me to register over his laptop and pretty much slide it aggressively towards me as if it was about to fall off the table. Afterwards Members were being all uptight by not introducing themselves ,ignoring my question when asking where's the restroom , making me feel unwelcome , and sarcastically telling me not to place the rower on the wooden floor cuz it will make me lose balance and I will fall off when I'm rowing...wtf??. Ive always had a positive experience visiting other boxes all over the states but this one just didn't make the cut. I'm not asking for a red carpet treatment but at least show some common courtesy to drop in guests. Luckily there are other boxes nearby so I'll go there next time when I visit Atlanta instead of dealing w/ this nonsense. Btw, my drop in fee was suppose to include a shirt right ??? Well , i never got one so I guess I'm chop liver to them. read more

Now I normally don't leave reviews.. Good or bad. I'm going out of my way to do this because I left this place feeling extremely disappointed. I walked with the typical questions about joining. First, the "owner" was VERY rude, arrogant, and un-welcoming. The members did not introduce themselves. I was shocked at how at how unprofessional it was. If you are a friendly, family oriented person- this place is not for you. These people are rude. I love crossfit, but this gym is definitely NOT getting my money. read more

I'm pretty new to this gym, but I'm writing this review because I think it really needs to be on the map. Although I'm far from an elite athlete, I've found Crossfit to be an incredibly effective way to improve my fitness and confidence in the past. It's not easy, it's not cheap, and it's not for everyone--but taught effectively, it gives a person tools for improving and measuring physical function across many domains. Before moving to Atlanta, I worked out at a Crossfit gym with coaches who'd had years of experience in coaching various athletics, and who also had a background in physical therapy and/or exercise science. They knew how to teach people to do the movements safely, and how to motivate people to work hard, even when it hurts. This made them outstanding coaches not just for elite athletes, but also for people like me. My experience at that gym was life-changing. I'd had trouble finding the same level of knowledge and skill at a Crossfit gym in Atlanta, until now. The two coaches--one male, one female--who run this gym have many years of experience coaching both Crossfit and other sports. Combined, they also have academic background and higher levels of certification that come across in the way they're able to figure out what I'm doing wrong with a certain movement, or how to improve mobility in a certain joint. The programming is created by the coaches, who are consistently attentive and helpful. Because the place is new, classes are currently small. On any given day, I work out with people about at my level or less experienced, and with people who could bench-press me with one hand. Parking behind the gym is plentiful. Most patrons are friendly, although one of the owners was downright crusty to me on my first day here, which was a minor downer. I got over it, because the coaching is great, but others might not be so tolerant. I would love if it were easier to put my membership on hold when I travel, and am holding out hope that becomes an option somewhere down the road. Regardless of some of these bumps, I think this place has what it takes to be an incredible resource to a lot of people at different levels of fitness, and I'm delighted it's in the neighborhood. read more

See all

Ben, the coaches, and the Terminus members are absolutely amazing people. I've been coming to Atlanta every 2-3 weeks for the past 3 years and I found a home away from home here. I live approximately 4 hours outside of Atlanta, but frequent the city for work. The facilities are always clean and organized. The workouts are always challenging, but you will come out a better athlete after each one. I originally found the gym because of Emily Bridgers, multi-time CrossFit games athlete, but on my very first visit I found a gym where I didn't feel like a stranger, out of place, or unwelcome as some gyms can develop that reputation. Everyone encouraged one another and was so welcoming that I have never visited another gym in the area as I found a place to go when I travel. I just wish I lived closer. read more

Dropped in while working in Atlanta, felt welcomed and the coaches replied to any emails I had in preparation to my visit. Met a great group of people and the classes were well organized and constructed. Plenty of equipment and space for everyone. Go see them for a WOD when in Atlanta! read more

Crossfit Terminus - Emily Bridgers, Crossfit games competitor and terminus owner - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Mixed review. The 5:30am people were nice, no doubt...the coach- was not my favorite. He was unfriendly and slightly arrogant. BUT, it was a great WOD and I felt good after. I have been visiting Crossfits as I travel and this one was just "OK" at best. Personality is key. Maybe I am wrong and it was just a tuff morning... read more

First day back to CrossFit! We chose CrossFit Terminus after visiting about 10 different gyms within a 2 day span. This Box by far was the most competitive, cleanest and had the times that would work best for our schedule. The lesson here is to make a well rounded evaluation in life who and what you want to be associated with and then take action. Don't sit around waiting on things to be perfect because they never will be. Now let's go get crunk at 6am! #CrossFit #CrossFitTerminus read more

Crossfit Terminus is a great gym. Even though I am not interested in competing, I receive lots of coaching and personalized attention. The coaching at Terminus is incredible. The two main coaches/owners are really passionate about crossfit and their gym. The assistant coaches are also great and complement the main coaching staff very well. The programming is effective (with a hefty dose of crossift evil genius) and I am already improving after a month. The members have all been very friendly and encouraging. Gym logistics: super easy parking, plenty of equipment for class sizes, very clean and well organized gym. I have been crossfitting for awhile and have been to a lot of gyms. If you're looking for quality coaching with intense programming, Terminus will be a great fit. read more

I dropped in for the noon class. I travel a lot and do a fair amount of drop-ins, which is one of the great benefits of crossfit, they're everywhere. I'm writing this mostly to provide a counterpoint to the previous negative reviews because I found the entire experience to be quite the opposite, great. First of all, crossfitters know they should email the box, fill it any forms online, sign a disclosure or waiver online and not just show up unannounced. Which is of course what I did. Ben at the desk was expecting me, introduced himself, gave me the rundown, a quick and easy arrival. And if that wasn't enough, all 14 classmates came over, introduced themselves, shook my hand, and welcomed me. Each one. And that's pretty much been my experience at other drop-ins, although maybe not to this degree. Even though I'm 53 and still getting the hang of crossfit the class was perfect for me and for all of us. I actually had the most detailed instruction I've seen so far including demonstrations. Then during the workout the instructor was very diligent at continually monitoring every participant and giving us tips, coaching, and encouragement. Probably the best instruction I've seen and that's saying a lot because they are all superb. I enjoyed meeting and talking to everybody, the great class, and the whole experience. I highly recommend them. read more

I came in as a drop in. Casey Castleberry is a badass coach! Even though I wasn't a member he took the time to give me some awesome cues on my push jerk that I continue to use every time I do that movement. Also, the overall vibe there is super relaxed and friendly, but at the same time you can tell they take their crossfitting seriously. EVERY SINGLE PERSON in the class (about 15) came up to me and shook my hand before the WOD. I thought that was super cool. Highly recommend this box. read more

I absolutely love this gym! Every one of the coaches takes the time to get to know you and help you work on your weaknesses. The foundations class is a great intro to the world of crossfit, and it teaches you everything you need to know to advance to the main classes. The WODs are always challenging but bring the best out of everyone. This is by far the best box in the ATL. read more

I'm a long-time CrossFitter, so I've worked out at a number of different gyms. Terminus is an excellent one with excellent coaches and smart programming. Everyone gets attention at Terminus -- not just the newbies and the elite athletes. I've only been there a month, but I'm getting better already because the coaches pay attention and provide great instruction (I'm also working hard -- no amount of good coaching can makeup for lack of effort). The gym is always clean, and it is well-run. I highly recommend it to anyone who values good coaching. I literally pass 3 closer gyms to attend Terminus. The 20-minute drive is well worth my trouble. read more

Dropped in while in town from Phoenix.... Dane, the instructor, was super helpful! Everyone was welcoming and supportive. The workout was challenging and was just what we needed! The facility was awesome with more than enough equipment for everyone. I will definitely come back next time I'm in town! read more
