CrossFit Palo Alto

I joined a year ago and it's been a great experience, as advertised. Crossfit does work, even in only two hours a week I am much more functionally fit than I was when I started - at the orientation, Tim asked "is there anyone who can't run?" and I thought about raising my hand. Now I know I can run - as well as get down on the floor to play with grandkids, get up, lift things, etc. Great community of people with a perfect balance of high standards and supportive environment for all levels.

Great drop-in experience. Really welcoming community and the coach (Tim) was focused on my technique and gave me great cues on push jerk I can practice at home. You do need to let them know you're coming in advance and pre-register, but Tim was responsive and the process was easy.

I've belonged to three different CrossFit gyms, and CrossFit Palo Alto is hands down my favorite and the best I've experienced in terms of community, quality of coaching and programming. Tim is a super knowledgable, very professional, and will meet you where you're at whether it's your first fitness class ever or you've been working out for years. I really appreciate his emphasis on making CrossFit a sustainable practice and part of your weekly routine. He keeps the workouts challenging, varied and interesting. I been amazed by how much stronger and more physically capable I feel just from going to class twice a week. I highly recommend checking this gym out!

This was a great gym for a drop in. I was able to sign up for class easily online ahead of time. Tim (owner/coach) is really experienced and knowledgeable. The people were friendly and very welcoming and the gym was organizing and well equipped. Looking forward to my next visit.

I started CrossFit a year ago to improve my strength for Spartan OCR Races. I was happy to find a welcoming community of all types of individuals at CrossFit Palo Alto. It was nice to find folks of all ages and abilities. I enjoy that all the workouts can be scaled to your ability level. Plus, CrossFit keeps me interested, because of the variety of exercises and workouts and I am always learning something new or have the ability to improve. I have definitely gained strength in all areas, which has helped me with my running and ability to complete obstacles. Working out with a community has kept me motivated and accountable with my own training. I have enjoyed participating in the CrossFit Open and a MURPH workout.
