Albany CrossFit®: Opinions
Fantastic experience: Such wonderful people and an amazing location!
Fantastic experience: I visited Albany CrossFit while attending the CrossFit Games. They ran some amazing classes, especially for the games, with Andrew Hiller, Margaux Alvarez, and Kiel Holman all teaching classes ...to name a few! The team at Albany CrossFit are so kind and friendly and the gym is really well equipped. The gym has two large rooms and both are a great size to accommodate classes and open gym workouts. I hope to be back!

Fantastic experience: I was a beginner to any kind of fitness. And I made the best decision to join Albany CrossFit. Coaches taught the fundamentals of CrossFit, posture and basic nutrition which I was never aware of. Coaches were aware of my fitness level and adjusted my workout movement accordingly. Definitely reached my fitness goal. I also enjoyed occasional yoga and squash sessions. Love the gym overall.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Friendly, motivated, and knowledgeable people! Had fun on my one month visit.
Positive experience: It is a beast.. but worth it!!
Fantastic experience: Great selection of equipment and a welcoming atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: Did a drop-in visit at 3:30. James, the coach, was excellent. Folks there were nice. Will be dropping in again.
Fantastic experience: Love this place. The staff have tremendous knowledge and clearly love sharing it with others. Members are welcoming and range in age. This place has changed my life.
Fantastic experience: Great place.. Great people!! If you want to get in shape or get stronger this is your place.. Love Albany Crossfit!
Negative experience: Overpriced, unsafe, and try to manipulate reviews on Yelp (there are 42 filtered reviews, and only 3 published reviews. If the filtered reviews were posted it would have a 1/5..). Just look at the youtube videos for this club and how dangerous and irresponsible they have beginners do lifts. Pretty sad attempt at Crossfit, and no where near the level of other Crossfit gyms. Also, the prices are pretty outrageous. Better off going to Albany Strength in downtown Albany – where membership is only $160 for a year versus the $2,000 they charge at Cross Fit. You want to get strong? Be around guys who can deadlift 800+ pounds. Not yuppies who can barely squat 150 pounds here.
Negative experience: it is a fact that this is the worst cross-fit gym KNOW to man kind!!!! you might think i am just a hater but in fact i am just worried about your safety.
Negative experience: This video... no comment. Do you know what you can make doing this s....t?
Negative experience: dumbass instructors
