I was frustrated…read morewith my strength and motivation plateauing as well as some facility issues at my previous gym. I finally decided to start looking around for new gyms and see which location fit my needs. I tried a few gyms before I discovered SoFit Athletics. I am glad to say that I took the plunge and joined! It is a great facility with wonderful coaches. The other members are welcoming and encouraging. They offer the variety I was looking for and my motivation and general fitness has improved! The owner and operator, Ryan, is very personable and knowledgeable. Also, two showers on site which makes life easier for anyone who exercises! Glad I found this gem in Baymeadows.

Now this is how an Orange Theory Studio should be run. I had my first class here today and it was…read moreawesome! No issues whatsoever. Coach Elliot was great, he was very enthusiastic and encouraging. He even answered some questions I had about my base pase after class. I absolutely crushed my workout and hit a 13mph all out, almost 800 calories. I got what I paid for at this studio and look forward to trying additional classes here.

I absolutely love OrangeTheory Fitness. I have been working out here for over a month now and I am…read morevery satisfied with the coaches, the facility and especially the workouts. I was not active at all prior to staring at OTF. They still welcomed me in and made me feel comfortable even though I had no clue what I was doing. They offer different levels of workouts depending on your activity levels. I started out on the lower tier and have already worked my way up to being able to run and jog -- I am really seeing a difference. The workouts are pretty intense but it's a take-it-as-you-can style. They never make you overwork yourself or do things your uncomfortable with. I really enjoy the group setting and having the coaches giving direction because it encourages everyone to keep up the pace and to work as hard as they can! It can be a little intimidating but now that I've gotten into a routine here I don't see myself stopping. I'm seeing changes in my stamina and my body already and I'm looking forward to challenging myself even more as time goes on. I recommend coming in and consulting with a coach to get started, they even offer a free class or two if you're new!! No reason not to come give it a try.

I started coming to F45 Deerwood this year after having been to a few different locations…read more(Jacksonville, Nashville, Orlando) and it's pretty solid. It's not been my favorite studio overall, but they offer convenient times for classes and the workouts are always great, even if the classes aren't full or super high energy. The two coaches I've had have been friendly and do a great job during classes to help correct your form or keep you on track. The space is plenty large and I've never felt overwhelmed with trying to fit in with the other members or all of the equipment, Overall, I'd stick with a 4/5.

I just finished up a free week trial at F45 Training Deerwood and I am super happy that I decided…read moreto check it out. There are so many positives so let me start with the fact that you can sign up for a free, no strings attached trial. I downloaded an app, logged in, and whenever I wanted to attend a class I checked the days schedule and booked it. The app doesn't tell you how full a class is, but the website does. I did five classes all week and I think the hardest class was Wednesdays Docklands. I was sore all over and drenched. The classes switch focus from day to day. Some days you are working on more strength based exercises, some days you are shooting for a high heart rate, and some days they mix the two. All the classes in every F45 worldwide is the same on any given day and they change the classes every 10 weeks. You won't be stuck or bored doing the same thing week to week. The owner Chris is very nice and personable. The coaches are fit and illustrate good form when they run through their exercises at the beginning of each class. They encourage you when you are huffing and puffing. They will correct you when you are doing something wrong so you don't hurt yourself, which is super important. They are also just nice and positive. They motivate each person in class to strive for their best. That may be the number one best thing I can say about F45. If you are shooting to shred some fat and gain some muscle F45 is a place where you can make that happen. If you can eat healthy to go along with consistent visits you will be looking different in a few months. I purposefully went the whole week before I asked about membership. I really wanted to get a feel for the gym without thinking is this expensive or worth it. Prices vary based on how much you visit, which is to be expected. It is about eight times more expensive than my current gym, but twenty times better. If you can afford it and take advantage of what you pay for then you won't regret it. I can totally see the coaches encouraging you to come in or not miss a day, so you hit your goals. F45 is new so everything inside still has a nice new look and feel. If you are used to doing your own thing at a box gym, this experience is different, but not bad. Classes last about 45 min with one class a week going a full 60 minutes. No more wasting two hours at a gym slowly going between exercises and hearing bro's grunt as they try and out peacock each other. In all honesty you will mostly zone everyone out during your workouts here as you will be working too hard. I am not sure yet if I will join, although I loved my experience, but you should definitely take a look for yourself. I had a great week and you will too.

It is HORRIBLE. I hate gyms and the overwhelming feeling of starting another plan to work out - but I had to. THEN I met Coach Chad. This guy is amazing; super smart about strength training but also really focused on being safe at whatever level you come in at. I come in complaining about pain in my knees and back and every time I train with him I feel I am getting stronger and doing work on my weaker areas. It feels like strength training and physical therapy with one stop in my day. The environment at the gym is fun, serious, energized, with a constant message that if you do the work today it will bring positive change tomorrow. All my sessions are different and individually planned for me. Coach Chad is definitely not boring! I really appreciate that while I am complaining that I don't want to be working out he is telling me what I am capable of and that I just need to commit to show up, keep going and the motivation will come. JSA is brand new, the equipment is incredible, Chad is awesome and it's really fun to watch the Olympic Weight Training clients while you work out! I seriously recommend going in and checking it out. It will do really well cause Chad is that good. It has far exceeded my expectations.

So far. I'm loving Steel Mill! Honestly, I never had the desire to do CrossFit. I did an On-Ramp…read moreonce when I was living in LA, but really thought it wasn't for me. Eight years later... It just happens that this gym is walking distance from my house because any further and I know that I just wouldn't go. So... CrossFit it is! :) I still drive there... I decided to join the 6-week challenge and (as I write this review), I think it was the best decision I have made for myself in a long, long time. It's not so scary. The program is fantastic as long as you don't fight the Universe and follow your nutrition plan AND do the workouts. It's pretty darn simple: Do what you're supposed to do and have a good attitude. Trust the process... The best things about this gym are the members, coaches and classes. I can definitely say that this has been the most supportive environment I have ever experienced when it comes to going to the gym. Everyone is genuinely supportive and welcoming from day one. Of course it's because they know the hell you're going through while doing the WODs [Workout Of The Day] and struggling through the skills they teach here as a newbie or someone who hasn't worked out consistently (like me) in a good damn while. Perhaps misery loves company? Perhaps, but I think we all enjoy the endorphins...afterwards. I have never seen any judgement here and there are all kinds of people with many shapes, sizes and physical backgrounds that come to this box that will cheer you on to finish that last rep. Really pretty cool and motivating. In addition, they offer plenty of class times and a full gym area complete with machines, weights and all sorts of fun toys to get your butt back into shape. It does get better... Overall, if you're on the fence about joining this CrossFit gym - I would recommend trying the 6-Week Challenge whenever they offer it to see what it's all about and commit to that. I know I had to read reviews on Yelp for over a year to finally decide on coming to this location. Hey. That might be you. Who knows? But I can tell you that I love the coaches who teach at this location and that can make all of the difference in the world. Good humans. Check 'em out!
