I can't say enough good things about X-treme Athletics. Since joining, I've lost over 30 pounds, kept it off, and have watched my body transform in ways I never thought possible. I'm entering my 40s next year and genuinely feel like I'm in the best shape of my life. More importantly, I'm excited about continuing to get stronger and healthier for years to come. What makes X-treme Athletics special is the people. Neal, Tracy, and the entire coaching team have built an incredibly supportive, welcoming, and fun community. I joined on a whim and was never someone who considered themselves athletic. I wasn't into sports, and regular exercise was never really part of my life. Now, it's something I genuinely look forward to every week. The coaches meet you where you are, encourage you to push yourself, and celebrate your progress along the way. If you're on the fence about joining, take it from someone who never thought this would be for them--it's one of the best decisions I've made for my health and well-being. read more

My nutrition and fitness routine became inconsistent during the pandemic. It didn't completely fall to the wayside since I still taught yoga online and did workouts at home, but admittedly I gained some extra fluff and didn't do a very good job of staying disciplined. Once California started moving out of the tiers and places opened up, I made it a priority to get back into better shape. I saw X-Treme Athletics' 6-week jumpstart program from a social media ad, which really spoke to me. On the same day I saw the ad, I scheduled an appointment to meet with Tracy in-person at the X-Treme Athletics facility. She was very encouraging and enthusiastic about wanting to help me achieve my fitness goals. I bought the program upfront that day, and then the following week I dove right in. My only regret was that I wasn't able to continue moving forward after completion of the 6-week program due to my teaching and work schedule getting busier. However, I'm incredibly grateful for my experience at X-Treme Athletics. I thoroughly enjoyed the jumpstart program, and I saw positive results. I felt stronger, I looked more toned, and my agility was back to the level it was pre-pandemic. I've never done Cross Fit before, which was intimidating at first, but by the end of the program I was keeping up at a great pace. If you're like me, the kind of person who needs direction and to be held accountable, then X-Treme Athletics is the place to be. The instructors are amazing! Neal, Tracy, Kota, and Dave uphold a high level of professionalism, and they will push you to optimize your workout because they know you can (no pressure though, of course). Most importantly, they helped me clean up my form and alignment when doing different kinds of lifting exercises. As a yoga instructor myself, I know how important this is to prevent injury. read more

I have had nothing but great experiences at this gym. Neal and Tracy are both such encouraging coaches and facilitate top-notch workouts (I can't speak for any of the other trainers mentioned in other reviews because I've only attended classes/training by these two). This gym is really clean. Like, who's ever had a good experience in a gym bathroom?! These ones are clean. You can't beat being trained by a Crossfit champion. I've never been so sore in my life as when I first attended Neal's classes. Throughout the entire class he gives tips and feedback, it's almost like you're getting personal 1:1 training, but in a group setting (and without the cost :). Being trained by Tracy got me into the best shape of my life. When you join this gym, you join a community. It's not just about the workouts - Neal and Tracy also have events, like a group run on Thanksgiving and the holiday party, so you get to know the people you work out with (which I love, as someone who moved out here without knowing many people). read more

1) The owner (Neal) is extremely rude and aggressive. He doesn't realize that he's employed by his members. He has personal equipment there and you will get yelled at for breathing on it. He will call you out and embarrass you if you do things incorrectly, like drinking too much water during the workout (even if you're on medication that dries you out, even if you drink 124oz of water with added supplements to increase water absorption, if you drink water during class you don't take care of your body). He doesn't like people interrupting his workouts, but he will stop his own wife in the middle of her workout just to ask her a question. He won't even give her the same respect he demands for himself. 2) The owner always talks about cleaning the gym and says that he doesn't appreciate people messing up his house. Once again, he forgets that a gym membership generally grants you access to a clean gym. Basic cleaning, like wiping machines and such after use is appropriate. Putting someone's name on the board for weeks (like you did to me when I was brand new) was petty AF and showed your character (or lack thereof). If you're so big on cleaning, why don't you clean up after your dogs? There's dog shit surrounding your property - I mean your house. 3) The owner is a liar and greedyyyyyyy. If you quit on your own, he's going to tell people he kicked you like he did to me. He did not, I pulled myself AND my partner from that gym because he said my partner and I were not considered a family because we aren't married, yet there are people getting family rates and aren't married. He just wanted to charge us full price because he knows we can afford it. If your company pays for a portion of your gym membership, don't let him know. He will raise your membership just because you're not paying for it. All in all, the workouts are great and will get your body tight. However, your nerves will be wayyy tighter due to the owner Neal and his shittyyyyyy attitude. Neal, I hope when you read this you realize that your attitude will cost you your business. It's obvious you're struggling because you said you wouldn't mix cryo and the gym membership yet you have a VIP pack and are giving a 12 week intro course for free. Congratulations, you're directly to blame for all your success.... and failures. I'm done. Mic dropped on the ground. read more

I'm 41 years old and in the absolute best shape of my life. I owe it all to Neal Maddox and the team at Crossfit X-treme Athletics. Since starting at the gym in October of 2016, I've shed 65+ pounds. When I first walked through the doors, I was just 2 years past having a heart attack, grossly overweight, and desperate for a transformation. My first day, my first week, my first month - they were all really hard, and I was really embarrassed by how out of shape I was. I was able to stick to it because of the expert guidance of the coaches and supportive community of members. We've all heard the horror stories of gruesome crossfit injuries, but those just don't happen at CFXA. Although the programming is designed to push you, the highly trained coaches know every single member and what level they are at in their fitness journey. They make sure you have your form and technique down before moving on to heavy weights or advanced moves. In nearly 3 years, I've barely experienced anything worse than just being really sore. I've had the opportunity to workout at other gyms across the country while traveling, so I can say with confidence that X-treme Athletics is truly a special place. Neal Maddox is a crossfit legend, and he is also a brilliant coach. His crossfit programming is second to none, and he also assists with custom tailored nutrition plans. On top of that, he keeps the cleanest gym I've ever been to. In short, Crossfit X-treme Athletics is World-class coaching, Tight-knit community, Breakthrough results! read more

I'm coming off of an injury and getting back into CrossFit. The coaches at Xtreme Athletics have been incredible! They make sure to tailor any workouts necessary for recovery and always have an eye out for proper form. I've never been in as good of shape as when I attend extreme athletics CrossFit sessions; the programming works and I'm seeing and feeling results! read more

I am so grateful to have discovered Cross Fit X-Treme Athletics and been blessed with the opportunity to learn and train under the coaching of Neil Maddox and Tracy Creal. Every workout is fun, exciting, challenging, unique and very thoughtfully put together in a way that pushes your body and mind to the X-Treme! Since joining, my fitness goals of leaning out, gaining muscle mass, getting stronger, and developing coordination have been accomplished and each day that I show up ready to put in the work I find a new barrier is overcome and amazing growth takes place in body, mind and spirit. The thing that I can say sets Cross Fit X-Treme athletics apart from the rest is Neil and Tracy genuinely CARE about you. They are just as committed to your goals as you are, sometimes even MORE so than you. Ha Ha. They keep you motivated, they keep you pushing for more, they keep you sharp, they keep you growing, and what I have found to be a priceless gift is they keep you believing in yourself. Coming here is not just showing up for a workout, it is showing up for an experience like no other and I am addicted to it! Trust me, you will be too. Many Thanks, Raschel Hutton read more

Neal Maddox has been extremely helpful with my injuries. I am an international dog agility competitor who has won numerous national events. I have had a high grade hamstring partial tear and ongoing failed back surgery that has caused chronic pain issues. Neal's method of recovery has benefitted me I. Continuing my competition. In additional the support staff, Gwen and Tracy in particular, have been invaluable in my scheduling and progress in recovery. As a medical physician I can attest that in my situation X-Treme Athletics and Maddox Method Sports Recovery have been X-Tremely helpful in my ongoing participation in my particular sport read more

Just wanted to share my wonderful experience thus far with this facility! My girlfriend and I got our foot in the door with the 6 week challenge. Needless to say the workouts are definitely challenging however you have 2 extremely supportive and motivational trainers (Neal and Tracy)showing you the right way to do each and every move. They have pushed us to go further than we thought we were capable of. The group/class atmosphere is very friendly, everyone roots for one another creating a very friendly open environment no matter your fitness level. We were so happy with our results in the 6 week challenge, where I lost 20 lbs, that we decided to sign up and become full time members. The gym and equipment are well cared for and the dogs are super sweet and definitely cheer you up after a tough work out. read more

e group environment is great. There are people of all shapes and sizes and the workouts are able to be completed by everyone (weights and reps generally differ on your level). The hour you spend here is compact, intense, and what you expect from a gym. I have joined gyms in the past where you are left on your own to determine what you work on. Neal and his team put together workouts each day and incorporate strength, stretching, and cardio....who would like air squats, wind sprints, and a few dumb bell moves would leave you with the "OMG" feeling. The people are nice and long term members are supportive and welcoming and above all...willing to help. There have been multiple times where a move was new or I was unsure how to complete....either an instructor was there or a member waiting for the next class would help - awesome! No day is the same...but you feel as though you accomplished something at the end of each class. I started with the 6 week challenge. I then continued with three days a week. Just cannot say enough things about this place or about finding crossfit. I have lost weight. Decisions of what I do during the day are better because I want to perform well in the workouts. My wife has noticed I take my belt in a few notches. I am much more active in kids' soccer and baseball practices. My kids are not quite the age where they can join the kids program, but I am certainly entertaining the option of having them join to start learning how fitness can be a lot of fun, can become just part of what you do each day, and how it makes you feel better about yourself and can help you accomplish things you may not have felt you could. Keep up the great work! I am surprised I stayed on and am surprised of how little changes can make such a big difference. read more

I highly recommend X-treme Athletics. Over the past 2 years or so I noticed a loss of strength and overall movement range. I still wanted to enjoy surfing, playing pickup basketball and touch rugby without seriously injuring myself. Lets face it, typically the more in shape you are the better you are at your leisure sport/hobby. After going to a community day at X-Treme Athletics I started Neal's plan and I couldn't be happier. I was pretty surprised how quickly I gained strength back and noticed a large increase in stamina too. Even though I trained while playing multiple sports (football, basketball, baseball in HS; rugby during and after college), I would never consider myself a gym rat. I kept in OK to decent shape over the past 8-10 by running. However I highly enjoyed the change into more lift movements and got much stronger than I anticipated. Don't get me wrong, Neal's program will make you sweat quite a bit. The gym is spacious, clean and has new equipment. You don't have to worry about gym chalk everywhere (why does everyone think they are Lebron James?) or waiting for that one machine to open up as some dude with headphones in just sits at it so that you can go home. Culture at the gym is great too from fellow workout partner motivation to helpful tips from the trainers to help with form. read more

I want to let everyone know this is the workout place to be. I have been str4uggling for year4s to loose weight. I joined right when covid hit and we had to do classes via zoom at home. They were able to do classes outside and I went to the night classes. I work out 5 days a week. I have a great meal plan from them. Since June 22nd, I have lost 64.6 lbs to date. I have been able to stop my high blood pressure medication and I feel great.. If you want a great gym where the coaches "REALLLLY" care about you, I highly recommend X-Treme Athletics. Tracy and Neal are the best.... I would not go anywhere else. LOVE YOU GUYS!!! DD read more

It's hard for me to give this place such a low rating, but after switching gyms and getting more for less, I have to let people know. They used to have an amazing coach, Ray! He got pushed out though. By Neal (if you go read any other comments you'll see he's the main reason a lot of people leave). And they have an amazing coach, Tracy! She's Neal's wife. The coaches and training style is good, or was for me. There wasn't much breakdown of certain types of moves - like rope climbs, chest to bar and hand-stands. It was more of this idea that you either had it or your didn't. You could do it or you couldn't. I had only taken a few classes during my time (a little over a year) with Neal, and I think this is because of the feedback they were getting. But instead my classes were CONSTANTLY interrupted by him YELLING "TRACY!" and she would stop coaching, walk away and tend to him. All. The. Time. This happened. I had never heard him say one positive thing to a member, he would just stand there and stare - and of course sometimes come in a blow a gasket and yell at the class for some reason. He very money driven and wants his face all over the gym. It was a great gym to start at, but you don't learn much outside the basics - and if you're 1 minute late you might as well not show up. Unless you want to run a mile with a 50 pound sand bag, or row 3000 meters or plank for 30 minutes. Also, if you're allergic to dogs STAY AWAY. They had 3 pit bulls and the stretching area (where the turf is) smelled SO bad and you would be covered in hair if you sat on it. The other members were always great - the 2 coaches were amazing - but it's very expensive for not a lot. read more

It's been about 5 years now that I've been going to Crossfit xtremeathletics. Unfortunately I suffered a torn rotator cuff a few months back and had surgery. After a few months off I came back and began my recovery at xtreme athletics. They have been so helpful and mindful of my recovery process and helped modify workouts to help me go through my recovery process and still get a great workout in. It's been a long process and still a long way from being fully recovered, but with the help of all the coaches here, I've seen major progress and exceeded my expectations of where I stand today in my recovery. No matter what your abilities or disabilities, they will work with you to help you get in your best shape of your life. read more

Going here for the past 6 months and X-treme Athletics has definitely changed my fitness level and I lost almost 20 lbs. Amazing workout regimes. Ray, Neal and Tracy are awesome and knowledgable. They push you to give your best and are very friendly. The gym and equipment are very clean and all the other members are supportive and motivate each other during intense workouts. I finally started enjoying and looking forward for my workout after starting here. They have reps and weights according to the individual's fitness level and they even modify workouts if you have an injury. Would definitely recommend to everyone who is looking for a fun and challenging crossfit workout regime in Bay Area. read more

I'm reviewing this CrossFit gym after being a member for 1.5 years. This is by far one of the best gym I could call it as 'Home' and it lives by its name 'Xtreme' Gym: it's very clean. Amazing gym. Tracy and Neal makes sure that things are in order. They equipments/weights are fairly new. Neal is amazing trainer and an athlete by heart. I love his workout program. He is technically very strong and brings the best out of everyone. Sure this gym is not for everyone. But if you come and follow Neal's advice, you'll learn good movement standards and you'll be stronger thats for sure. I'd love to come back to this gym anytime i move to South Bay. read more

Recently finished the New You 6 Week Challenge and LOVED IT!. Had no idea what I was walking into but that didn't matter after about 20 mins into the first class. You can feel the good vibes from all the Coaches. Tracy is amazing. The atmosphere at this gym is energizing. Tracy and the staff are extremely knowledgeable. They take the time to make sure you do it right. Loved this start up course so much I joined the family and put my daughter in the kids class. SHE LOVES IT! If you're new to CrossFit and don't know where or how to get started or just want to try some place new come, check this place out. read more

I'm writing this review on behalf of my lil' sis, Hua, who does CrossFit five times a week and I guess Neal's workouts are so tough that she no longer has use of her fingers to type :D She's been coming here since October 2010 and on her first day, she learned that CORN MAKES YOU FAT!!! So no more corn for her and she has since lost about 18lbs and 12% body fat!!! I'm telling you....she's looking H-O-T!!! She also offers to "carry" people at work. No joke...she once picked up our IT guy at work and he feared for his life but she didn't drop him!! Hooray!! So if you want to get fit, lose weight, and be strong enough to lift people on your back, then go see Neal!! read more

Let's get down to business, serious business. I trained with Neal about 5 years ago to get me Bridal Ready. He surpassed all physical expectations with my results; he pushed me hard; trained me tough; took no B.S. from me; I was sore, I hurt, I cursed, but it was ALL GOOD!!! Neal is a down to business kinda guy. If you're serious about getting fit, serious about your physical health/appearance, if you want serious results then Neal is the trainer for you. Fitness, losing weight, training to be fit is serious business and like any other business you must always seek the best and without a doubt Neal is the best !!! read more

This is my third "box" I moved into. When I first started I was a nervous wreck because of the rumors of its intense training and crazy warm-ups before getting into an actual workout. I seriously made the best decision and went after the unknown. Neal's gym will give you results and I really like the disciplinary structure especially for those running late. The coaches at Xtreme Athletics definitely 5 stars (well in my book)- they're approachable and personal with great advices. I forgot to mention this box is very clean; unlike some boxes with chalk still on the pull-up bars, dirty floors, weights isn't wiped down and etc. I really like that the members at Xtreme are very mindful of the cleanliness. What do you have to lose? Come check out Xtreme Athletics and I guarantee you won't be disappointed. read more

This place is amazing. I cannot thank this team enough! I've been coming here for nearly three years, since they opened at this location. My boyfriend just joined and he loves it. The team and community here are so inclusive, whether it be fitness level, adaptive physical abilities, and even with social differences. The workout is amazing because when I was new and was VERY out of shape, they modified the workouts so I could complete them and continue to get stronger. Now these days I'm doing things I never imagined. I trust them with training my boyfriend as well, who is brand new to CrossFit. He is a pre professional dancer and cannot risk injury. It is a safe way for him to build up his strength and conditioning. If you're new to fitness, or if your a professional athlete (yes we have members from the NFL) you'll have some great training and you'll be amazed with your improvements. The only thing you have to do is your best. You're going to have to work hard with the abilities you have. The moment I walked in on their opening day I had no clue what was going on. I saw balloons and walked in. There was a DJ, dogs, and people. I thought it was some crazy birthday party. Tracy invited me to workout with them and it was unlike anything I had done. I signed up on the spot and have been coming back ever since. I need breaks during the warm-ups for the first month. I wasn't able to use weights until the second month. Now I am doing things I never imagined. Plus I love how diverse this community is. Many different ethnicities, nationalities, sexual orientation, physical abilities, you name it!  It's tough coaching but you can achieve your goals here if you give it all you got! Expect to work and expect to get results from the work you put in. You'll be shocked by what you can do. read more

I've been a member of X-treme Athletics almost 3 years. They're extremely clean, all equipment is the best of the best, and all coaches are experienced and motivate and push you do be your best! In addition i've met some spectacular people that I hang out with outside of the gym, it's nice to find people that like to do similar things who have the same mission and goals and be able to celebrate it! The WODS "workout of the day" are always different (challenging) and there are always modifications available based on your ability. All coaches are similar but different in their style, and each bring their own intensity. Its overall a great workout, fantastic gym and people and dogs! read more

I have been coming to Neal's Gym for 9 years. I'm not sure what gym Brandon H. has been going to but cleanliness has never been an issue in Neal's gym. Neal is a confident trainer and championship level instructor. His coaching is highly professional and he always focuses on up lifting my commitment, endurance, and mental focus. Training at X-treme Athletics has been a high level experience for me that I will chairish for LIFE. read more

I absolutely love this box! Speaking as a Doctor of Chiropractic who specializes in athletes and military service men and women, I am very particular with Crossfit boxes due to reports of injuries etc. The trainers at X-treme Athletics are EXACTLY what I am looking for: a dedication and emphasis on doing the movement right. Let's face it, the only reason why an otherwise healthy individual would get injured while working out would be improper form. X-treme Athletics makes you take an "on-ramp" series of classes so that you can get up to par and learn the basic fundamentals before you even start racking on the weights. The trainer I have been working with is Ray. Apart from being an overall great guy and knowing his stuff.... he makes me feel comfortable and unintimidated while learning the different kinds of lifts. (Side-note: I'm not saying he won't push you... because you know he will!) If you're wondering what Crossfit is all about, or are looking for a box that comes with a doctor's recommendation, LOOK NO FURTHER! Crossfit X-Treme Athletics is quickly becoming my second home, I look forward to meeting you there! read more

I have now been going CrossFit X-Treme Athletics for just over 2 years now. When I came to the gym I was about 50 lbs over weight, out of shape and injured. Over the first few months the gym had me working out but modifying what I could do. After about 4 months in I was able to run and jump which gave me the ability to really go after the workouts. When I first came into the gym I couldn't do a pull up amongst many other movements that needed strength. With the guidance of the coaching staff Ray, Neal & Tracy I got great guidance with my nutrition, form, strength and mindset. I no longer have the extra weight I arrived with and now have the strength to do the pull ups I could never do. On top of that I have the right mindset to know that if I can't do I will over time. Lastly I wanted to mention that I'm in my 50's and now able to keep up with people half my age at the gym. If you are looking for a change at any age they can work with you to get you your desired outcome. All you need is to show up and do the work. Thanks again for all the help getting there Team X-Treme! The gym also offers online programming for beginners, competitors and masters athletes as well, so this place is for all fitness levels. read more

Believe it when I say that all coaches @ X-Treme Athletics are super knowledgeable, take unmatched care and concern for your well-being, and they are all supervised by owner Neal Maddox: Top competitor in the "Crossfit Games." I am a mother of 3 and I'm a pre-school teacher. Other than cardio and light weight-lifting, I had never experienced CrossFit training but heard only how difficult longevity and circuit training is, more difficult than other kinds of workouts. I have never pushed my self this hard physically, but it is well worth it at X-treme Athletics. Neal, Tracy, Ray, and Richard make this Crossfit gym the best in the bay area for the complete program both physical as well as dietary health. A top to bottom design schedule. I began my tailor-made workout program approximately 2 1/2 years ago and I see myself here for many years to come. This top-notch fitness facility has given me exactly what I need: Individual care, amazing team building exercises, and dietary plan. I am challenged every time I come to work out and all the coaches take care and precision in order to guide and correct us in everything we do. These are high-quality coaches who are very passionate about what they do. Come to join the family at X-Treme Athletics!​ read more

I have been coming here almost a year now, starting with 2 six week challenges, then moving onto the 3 times a week membership & finally the unlimited membership in December and I wish I had done so sooner. The trainers here (Ray, Tracy & of course Neal, the owner) are really awesome and will modify workouts for injuries so you can always get the most out of your time here, they also have an on site chiropractor. Also the environment is very friendly and everyone motivates one another. All in all a great place to come get in shape and stay that way! read more

I was here after reading all the wonderful reviews, and while they might be right about the training, the customer service here is soo sh***y it just turned me away. When I reached there with my infant to find out more, 3 huge dogs completely blocked the entrance. As a first time visitor I had no idea if they were friendly or as aggressive as the same breed of dog that attacked a customer at Whole Foods just a few minutes ago. I waited outside patiently without saying a word for someone to come. Just then a very friendly customer was walking out, he smiled and began to tell me how I didn't need to worry the dogs were friendly. I smiled back, and as someone very scared began to walk in slowly but carefully. Just then the owner came out and almost started yelling noticing that I was scared " This is not going to be a good fit for you if you are scared of dogs" Ewww! So much for customer service and making some one who has come hoping to get help* in this overwhelming journey of weigh loss to feel further overwhelmed and upset! How about "Oh, I'm so sorry, don't be scared, they are the sweetest dogs, you learn that in your time here, every one loves them. Instead he went on in his aggressive voice "'they are born here, they are always here, you need to find some other place" Oh yes! I believe you that they live there, tons of dog shit all around the area surrounding the gym just lying there had to come from somewhere! Obviously says a lot about how much you care about anything other than what's Yours! Next time you yell at a customer paying you to help them, I'd recommend to think again read more

Amazing coaching and a very clean gym. I feel like I am challenged to my limits every time I hit a workout there.

Previous to joining X-treme Athletics, I had a dull routine I followed daily at the near by 24-hour Fitness. Thinking I was in shape, I had accepted a friend's invitation to X-treme Athletics. Entering the facility, I couldn't help but notice how clean and organized all the equipment was; not a single weight was left on the floor. Now before I continue, one must understand the unique style of fitness offered by X-treme Athletics. Firstly, X-treme Athletics is not a gym, this is an instructor lead training facility where clients are directed to specific training sessions that allow optimum personal training. Secondly, due to the high intensity of training, one must complete an assessment work out to analyze one's physical capability. Lastly, whether one's intensions are to burn fat or gain muscle, a BMI (Body Mass Index) measurement is taken in order for one to be given an engineered nutrition plan. As I wrote earlier, X-treme Athletics is not a gym, it's an instructor led training, essentially a coaching. And it's the coaching that differentiates the goals achieved in an ordinary gym to those that are achieved through X-treme Athletics. The coaching offered enhances one's ability to push through mental barriers, resulting in one to endure more physical exercise. Through coaching, one is pushed to extremes that one would never come near, allowing goals to be fulfilled and even surpassed. As a member of X-treme Athletics I have surpassed many personal goals...goals that would have never been achieved through my own self willingness. read more

Here is all you need to know: if you are serious about getting into shape, and I mean total body fitness, then this is the gym for you. I walked into X-Treme Athletics in July of 2010. I was 37 years old, 6 foot 2 inches tall, and I weighed in at 300 pounds. I ate what ever I felt like, and I split my time between sitting at a desk and sitting on a couch. Today I am eating on a plan that I can live with day to day, and I weigh in at 225 pounds. But it does not stop there. In addition to the weight loss I am in the best physical shape of my life. Neal trains for complete fitness: strength, agility, endurance, and most importantly: heart. Working out with Neal I find myself pushing past limits I believed I could not cross. It has not been easy. Neal will ask you to give your all when you are in the gym. Half efforts and excuses are not accepted. If you are serious about improving your fitness, and if you are willing to commit to do the work, there is no better place to train. read more

This crossfit gym has a lot of good things going for them. The facilities are clean, equipment is mostly new, the members are personable, and the coaching is great! They also have an in house chiropractor who does amazing work, and I highly recommend Derek Ko for your chiropractic needs. You might be wondering why I am only giving two stars to a place that sounds like there's nothing wrong. The owner of Xtreme Athletics, Neal Maddox, is the reason for the poor rating I have given. Neal Maddox can sometimes display zero regard for his customers, and it shows in the way he handles customer service issues. When I first signed up at Xtreme they offered different types of classes. They had the regular crossfit classes, Olympic lifting classes, a boot camp style class, and open gym. One day he decided, without any warning, that both open gym and boot camp were cancelled and no longer available. Now I'm paying almost $200/month for just olympic lifting and basic crossfit classes? For that price, every other crossfit gym I have looked at offered a lot more than Xtreme. And just the way it all went down left a sour taste in my mouth. Recently Neal decided that he was going to enforce a rule that he had not enforced since before I joined. If you forget to sign in for class, you must "spin the wheel" and do a penalty workout instead of the regular workout, and he offers no help whatsoever to remind you to sign in (no sign or anything), nor did he even have a mechanism for you to sign in with. So they make it 100% your responsibility to remember to sign in, and also have a phone to sign in with. Want to run a mile with a 50lb sandbag on your shoulders? Neither did I. Want to do a plank for 30 minutes? No thanks, that's just not for me. Needless to say I left that day less than happy. I messaged Neal about what happened and he never replied back to me. As a result of the poor customer service I received from Neal, I decided to pull my credit card from their website so they couldn't charge me for the next month. Neal then took the extra step of telling his in house chiropractor that he is not allowed to take me on as a customer any longer, simply because I didn't give Xtreme the proper 15 day cancellation notice. Now, if that isn't a clear example of his pettiness, just give this place a try and I'm sure Neal can show you more examples of how he can be a total jerk. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, he also writes your name on the board if your credit card was declined for whatever reason. So he's basically telling every member there if you owe him money. Xtremely unprofessional... read more

Joining X-Treme Athletics Cross has been hands down the greatest thing I have done for myself in my adult life!!! Four months shy of my thirtieth I birthday I was in the worst shape of my life. I had been hospitalized earlier in the year, lost 45 lbs (not in a good way) and when I got better I put the weight back on eating everything in sight. I quickly passed my original weight and regained NONE of my strength from before my bout. I wasn't in the best shape before all of this either. I was never a Gym Rat, I pretty much steered clear of them since I didn't really know how to work out. Then Neal talked me into checking out his gym. I have been going now for about a month and a half after 1 month I had lost 15 pounds and dropped 2% body fat, my arms, chest, and legs are larger and stronger, my GUT is smaller and my endurance in growing every week. Neal's "cross fit" training is hard work but tons of fun too. He will tailor your workouts to match your abilty, ANYONE can do it, trust me! You will find all types of people training with Neal of varying abilities. You will find people there who will push you and people who will pull you but everyone is supportive. As of right now, I have more energy, I'm healthier, I'm stronger, and enjoying a shirtless Summer (something I wouldn't have done just a 1.5 months ago) I look forward to every class and I am well on my way to being in the best shape of my life for my 30th birthday!!!! Thanks Neal! read more

A little background about me, I'm a pre-professional dancer in training and I needed to cross train to get stronger and more fit, a lot of my fellow dancers advised me not to do CrossFit because most places neglect proper form leading most people to injure themselves and aren't able to dance anymore but I still decided to do it because of the all the great things I heard about this particular gym. I signed up for the 6-week challenge which is coming in 3 days a week and adhering to a meal plan that the gym provides. I religiously followed this meal plan and went to every single class and you really do get what you put in and little more. I lost about 26 pounds. I started at 226 and now I'm down to 200 and it's such a drastic change like all my clothes are too big now. The coaches were extremely well trained and pushes us all to do our best all the time. The equipment in the gym is always super clean and feels like is all new. I thought that I wouldn't be able to do half the crazy stuff they do but now I wanna try it all! Not only has there been a shift in my body but also shift in mindset. All you really need (aside from gym membership) to have ready is a great attitude and a good work ethic. I'm happy that I like it enough to continue after this challenge. read more

Joining Neal's gym was the best decision I have made for my mind and body. I have really seen a positive change in my body: decrease in body fat, became more toned and muscular, stronger and faster. I look better than ever and couldn't be happier! Neal and Ray, both, do a great job keeping me motivated during class and pushing me to limits I never thought I could reach. Neal isn't in it to take your money and run, he is there right by your side making sure your form is correct and that you're pushing yourself to your fullest. Neal seeks to physically empower his clients and give them the confidence and self-esteem they need and/or want. The feeling after finishing your workout is unexplainable and priceless. The hard part is getting there but once you're there you've done half the work! Go check him out, he's worth the time and definitely worth the money. read more

I've been coming to this gym for about 2 years and there's a reason why my daily workout here is a priority...IT WORKS. I had never done a CrossFit class before but never felt like I was out of place here. The instructors are top notch and always make sure safety is the first and most important thing during workouts. They will push you to become better,faster and stronger and you will then push yourself because you see results! The members of this gym are diverse in age and ability but everyone has a common goal: to better themselves. I'm so happy I found this gym at random and having visited other CrossFit gyms while traveling, this gym is by far the cleanest with the most attentive coaches I've come across thus far. You will not be disappointed ! read more

X-Treme Crossfit Athletics is exactly as its name implies... Extreme! If you are ready to get in the best shape of your life, then this is the place for you, but it will not be easy. Owner/Trainer Neal Maddox pushes himself to the physical limit (maybe beyond) and he expects you to do the same. The trainers will teach you all the proper forms and techniques then scale the WOD (workout of the day) to your ability. Whatever your ability level, there is no reason to feel intimidated at this box (gym). The trainers and members are very supportive. I started out doing push-ups from my knees while others were doing handstand push-ups, yet I received just as much encouragement as anybody. As you get stronger and faster, the WODs get harder and more technical. It never gets easier!!! I have been at X-Treme for just over a year... now I am doing handstand push-ups :) read more

CrossFit X-treme Athletics is a gym where you have the opportunity to exercise, learn, meet new people, and have fun. It is extremely well furnished, has ample equipment, and offers a schedule with a lot of options. The class programming and coaching is very strong and helps you to get great workouts while you're constantly improving. For me, having started with no knowledge of conditioning, CrossFit, or any form of weightlifting, I've been so appreciative of those I've met through the gym who have helped me always get better and welcomed me when I was in town for either workouts or fun events. read more

I absolutely love love Xtreme Athletics. The people are very motivating and the staff are amazing guys to work with! Neal pushes you the max and results are seen!!! Neal Maddox an inspiration!!! If you dont know, now you know :) read more

I was at X-treme for a year and I definitely recommend it for anyone looking to get stronger! The workouts are hard as heck and don't expect anyone to tolerate your excuses. Sometimes I get butterflies in my stomach before the workout because I know I'm going to feel like I died and resuscitated by the end of the workout. Some people may think that's crazy, but I love crossfit because I'm always pushing my limits and I can feel and see myself getting stronger. I remember when I couldn't pick up a bar and struggle to put the metal clamps on because I was so weak. Tracy and Ray are awesome coaches. Neal has pushed me when I thought it wasn't possible to add more weight. Ray and Tracy give you great feedback and are always looking to help you improve. Thank you, coaches. All the athletes here motivate you to finish all the workouts and push your limits. All in all, the athletes and coaches are great. Expect to put in hard work and have fun! read more
