Priority CrossFit®: Opinions

5/5 (24 Opinions)
Aaron Groves 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: I joined in April 2024. The coaches have been great at helping me build gradually. You have the opportunity to get to a new level of fitness, no matter where you start. You improve in areas you are already good in, as well as learning new movements. Tremendous team atmosphere to help you reach your goals!

Fantastic experience: I am a returning member (2016-2019) of Priority CrossFit. Over the past several months I can’t speak highly enough about the entire experience. It feels like I never left. From the moment I walked in, I was re-welcomed with open arms by the staff and members. It’s clear that the mission statement coincides with being passionate about helping every individual reach their full potential, regardless of fitness level. This tenure coaching staff is truly remarkable. Each coach is extremely knowledgeable and well-rounded on ways to modify each technique performed in the gym to accommodate different abilities, while consistently being supportive. Movements and techniques are explained in detail each day, no matter how many times we have executed the lift or WOD. I have personally learned more about proper techniques and what is best for my body while improving my overall lifestyle. What really sets the tone at Priority CrossFit is us! The atmosphere is motivating with no shortage of positive energy and camaraderie among the members. Everyone cheers each other on, and it truly feels like a team environment, even during individual workouts. I have been able to be completely honest with myself, my performance, and where realistically I want to be at my age. I know my fitness matters, but my health also matters at Priority CrossFit. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or a complete beginner, there’s a place for you at this gym. They take the time to meet you where you are and help you progress at your own pace. If you’re looking for a gym to push yourself, improve your fitness/health, and become part of an incredible community, Priority CrossFit is the place for you. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Priority Crossfit has been the best gym I have been a member of. The coaches are knowledgeable, friendly, and help you achieve your fitness and health goals. I have felt welcome by its members whereas other gyms have issues with cliques. My husband and I workout together and we have a blast competing and growing together in fitness. We plan on being members for life and love our community in the gym. 5/5 recommend giving this Priority Crossfit a try!

Fantastic experience: I love Priority CrossFit! My first time at the gym was to sign up my school-aged sons for CrossFit Kids. This was such a great option for them, instead of crowded karate classes. The instructors worked diligently with my sons, teaching them the basics of weightlifting and ensuring proper form for a wide variety of exercises. This was a huge confidence-booster for one of them in particular; after not being in team sports since kindergarten, he was willing to join the junior varsity football team in high school. I saw how helpful this was for my sons, and decided to join myself too. I appreciate the way there is always an option for scaling an exercise to your ability level, by adjusting weights or reps or other options. I feel so much stronger and happier and in control of my body. And the people are fun too!

Fantastic experience: A legit, no BS place to become measurably stronger. It's a CrossFit gym so you will you become stronger and faster in the legs, core, and upper body. No hyper-focus or neglect of any muscle groups. The classes are limited to about 8-10 people so it allows for a good coach-to-student ratio, which makes for a nice sense of community unlike mega-gyms. The coaches are very knowledgeable, inspiring, and won't let you get away with bad form. I go 3-5 times per week and it's money very well spent.

Fantastic experience: I joined Priority CrossFit almost a year and a half ago and have loved being a part of the community there. The members there are very welcoming and supportive. The coaching staff is top notch. Class sizes are kept small enough to provide individual attention as needed in the classes. The coaches will encourage and push you to realize all that you are capable of at a safe and healthy pace and keep your goals at the forefront with member check-ins. Their passion is helping people and they help me become a better version of myself every day.

Fantastic experience: I joined Priority Crossfit with a personal trainer for pain management May 2020. I have Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and was still struggling from a hip surgery a year prior. My personal trainer has been AMAZING and she takes into account my condition and past injuries to create our workouts. I could barely walk after the first session but now five months later I can do proper squats without pain. My end goal isn’t to be the strongest person at the gym but to build up my body to be able to do every day functions again. Every session I attend is my physical therapy. I look forward to every session I can make!
