F45 Training Preston Forest

Fantastic experience: I visited F45 West Cary today and loved it! Very friendly atmosphere. The coaches, Matt and Jesse, were personable & motivating. They were welcoming and made you feel like part of a team.

Fantastic experience: Great trainers, great community, and phenomenal workouts.

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at this F45 location since October! I have loved every minute of it. The coaches are really personable and supportive. They are always able to modify workouts as needed. The classes are of diverse abilities, never intimidating. I have access to an apartment gym but really needed something fast paced and engaging. It changes daily at F45 which is why I love it!

Fantastic experience: The group fitness classes at F45 has a mix of everything (cardio, strength, resistance, endurance, core, etc) and that is the best part. The west Cary location has great coaches who guide you through every class. I have worked with John, Tory, Bethany, Natalie, Charlie, Max, Ben and everyone are great to work with. It has been an amazing journey and I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: I had a great trial run at F45 in West Cary - and I've visited a lot of gyms so that's impressive. Each time I went during my 7 day trial, I was greeted by friendly trainers who showed genuine interest in my fitness level and goals. I prefer weights and really liked the hybrid days when I could choose between cardio or weight training, depending on how my body felt. And I haven't worked out at a gym that had tvs with instructions - my ADHD brain REALLY benefited from it! F45 set the bar high and I will definitely be back!

Fantastic experience: 400 classes in and still loving it. The instructors are super friendly and helpful. The equipment and facility are good quality. Good variety of exercises.

Fantastic experience: Love F45! Awesome class variety and the instructors at this location are top tier!

Fantastic experience: The coaches are amazing and the workouts have a great variety! I’ve been pretty lucky to make some amazing friends here too!

Fantastic experience: I love F45 here in Cary, very beautiful. So blessed to get back to gym again with my daughter. The coaches very helpful. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: F45 was EXACTLY what I needed for a kickstart back into fitness. My husband and I are currently doing their F45 Challenge and in only 3 weeks I can feel a great difference in my physical health. The staff are so welcoming and encouraging and I’m looking forward to where I’ll be at the end of the challenge. Thank you F45!

Fantastic experience: The best place to start my day. The coaches are awesome and constantly challenging me. F45 definitely makes working out more fun!

Fantastic experience: Excellent experience with awesome trainers! The coaches make the difference! I highly recommend F45 WEST CARY NC!!!

Fantastic experience: F45 West Cary is AWESOME! I've been a member for over a year. I've seen some amazing results and met some wonderful people. The coaches do a great job encouraging and motivating you to push yourself (in a very positive manor - not yelling at you). I highly recommend anyone looking for a great workout with a great staff and some awesome people to give F45 West Cary a shot. You won't be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been attending F45 at this location for just about 2 years. The trainers are awesome and so friendly! The people I workout with are super nice and supportive. The people are what makes this place great. F45 workouts are a bonus! I’ve seen improvements and am constantly challenged.

Fantastic experience: This is my first time doing group fitness classes. I am currently enjoying the experience. The team at the west Cary location are great, easy to talk too. My heart rate is always up with these work outs and I get in a good sweat.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the energy and intensity of these classes! Coach Jamie and entire team is super motivating and right by your side correcting form and pushing for that extra rep! Cost is above average but highly recommend if you thrive in team/group exercise settings

Fantastic experience: I found this gem when I moved from Boston to Cary in August. Not knowing anyone I was greeted by Annalise the manager who was so welcoming and knowledgeable. It feels like home when I walk in! The coaches are very impressive with their experience and advice. I always have a great workout and great time with the other members!

Fantastic experience: Best workout I’ve ever done, you feel so accomplished when you get through it. They have classes early enough to make it before work, all the coaches are so encouraging and work with your fitness level and how to safely improve with every class you take. John truly has an amazing team and gym, highly recommend F45 West Cary!!

Fantastic experience: I just spent a month trying different gyms in search of a home base. I tried Burn Boot Camp, CrossFit, and F45. I was looking to switch from personal training I had been doing to group fitness. F45 was the most aligned to the workouts I did in personal training but done in a very organized & fun way. Unique to F45 are TVs on the wall that show someone demonstrating the exercises throughout the class-- that is a gamechanger. That was the biggest struggle I had elsewhere-- not know what I was supposed to be doing mid-way because everything was verbally explained in the beginning and you had to just remember somehow. F45 eliminates that problem so I can stay focused and get the workout in as-intended. As for this specific F45 location (having tried 3 in the area)-- I chose to join West Cary because of the vibe & energy. There is an overall feeling of encouragement along with friendly competition. You do really feel a team atmosphere-- like you are being pushed to do your best but because people are rooting for you & also rooting for themselves/pushing themselves. There is currently a 6-week challenge and this location has a super motivating setup for the challenge that makes you want to participate & stay involved. The trainers are all very cool and knowledgeable without overwhelming. So far I've had workouts with Ben, Emily, Katie, Ashley, Matt, and John-- all amazing and bring their own unique energy to the workout. Highly recommend trying this one out!

Fantastic experience: I am a founding member at F45 West Cary. The F45 motto of Team Training is true to its core. Great workouts with great coaches and a physically diverse group of members. I am always challenged by the coaches and am probably in the best physical condition I have been in my life. The coaches always make sure that the exercise is being performed in a proper form. The coaches also push you to challenge yourself but know that it is your workout and you know your body best to ensure that you do not over exert of get injured. The members attend awesome. We push each other and the partner workouts are fun. I feel that to the F45 family and not just a workout studio. I could write pages of why you should consider F45 West Cary but i will let you judge. Just don’t give up. Showing up is 90% of the work, the other 10% is having fun with the workouts at F45 West Cary.

Fantastic experience: If you have to make up your mind between resting for a day and coming here for a sweat...come for the execise. Best workout all year. Natalie and team got your back!

Fantastic experience: F45 is spectacular In general - West Cary brings it home. High energy, motivational coaches, good times. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I very much love the coath here.They are very friendly, they are very professional and patient.

Fantastic experience: Not for the faint of heart here. If you're looking for an advanced, high paced, high energy, positive workout in an hour or less, you have found the right place. If this is your 1st time trying to work out though, I'm not sure I would recommend F45 as it may be too much. The exercise circuits put together here are never boring and never repeated. The instructors are nice, personable, knowledgeable and motivating. The music is great too. I personally love the weights based workout over the cardio ones, but that's just me. If you want a real burn that you'll feel all day and the next and the results that come with it, then give F45 a chance. The money is worth it if you stick with it.

Fantastic experience: The workouts and trainers were amazing! I would highly recommend this location.

Fantastic experience: Great trainers and I loved to work out here.

Fantastic experience: The staff is great. They are friendly and motivating. I’m getting great work outs !

Fantastic experience: 3 weeks into F45 and I have absolutely loved it! The workout gives me exactly what I need, and takes out the guessing game of “what do I do at the gym” - I’ve been heavily into fitness for years, but nothing gives me a workout like this!! Every day is something new, and I feel so accomplished every day! Every single coach is inviting, friendly, and remembers who you are- they’ll give you the extra push you need! You won’t regret joining this community!

Fantastic experience: Great place. Good equipment. Trainers are the best.

Fantastic experience: I love F45 and the coaches / community at Preston Forest. A great group. Big ceilings. Plenty of light. Tons of room. If you're thinking about trying out F45 this is a great place to do it.

Fantastic experience: The Preston Forest F45 is one of the best I have trained at! I have lived in a few different areas and gone to F45’s at all of them and while they’re all amazing, Preston Forest has been above and beyond. The instructors are so attentive to each participant, making things harder to push you or giving modifications when needed. Their management is always quick to respond to emails and super helpful as well, which people often forget is crucial in running a gym because so much of their focus is on the coaches and while that’s a huge part of your experience so is your management experience. I cannot say enough awesome things about this F45, all my respect and appreciation for them and the business they are running!

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Wonderful trainers. Good equipment. You can't go wrong

Negative experience: I have taken F45 classes before and happened to be in town and wanted to get a good sweat in where my schedule was able to. I have had great experiences at F45 studios back in my home state as well as other F45 in the area (on Olive Chapel Rd). Upon walking in the door, what I learned to be the Studio Manager, approached me to ask me my name - thought nothing of it, a new face why not introduce yourself, especially as a person of leadership within a company. Second, she asks me if I've done F45 before and almost before I'm done speaking get interrupted that my "week free trial" which mind you was the only option available for me to sign up for online - was not valid as I was visiting from out of state. She tells me "today is fine but for the rest of the week you will need to pay per class". Ok fine - I can pay, however, please fix your website if this is the case and not attack me as if this is my fault. She proceeded to go on about letting her know about signing up for future classes, etc. I am not trying to ask for free classes, handouts, etc but would like to be treated as if I am wanted to be there - what is disappointing to me is a few things - one how unfriendly this person was regarding a new client to her studio (especially as a studio manager!) as well as lack of holiday spirit the day before Christmas. As an elite athlete, I have NEVER had such a poor experience upon walking into any new fitness studio (bootcamp style, CrossFit, HIT, spin, yoga, kickboxing, you name it). Additionally, given that I am visiting a studio around the holidays, there is likely a VERY good chance I've got friends and family in the area who are sending me for a trial run of the studio before possibly joining me for a class later in the week and hopefully signup thereafter. My experience here has helped me reassure my family and friends that rely on me to scope out the best places that this is NOT the place for them, and a slightly longer drive down the road to Olive Chapel Rd is likely a much better fit given the very friendly and open staff. The trainer in the class was great though! She was very focused on helping technique for each client - those from all ends of the fitness spectrum. Personal touches such as this are key in fitness classes to help clients feel wanted, stay engaged, stay safe, and ultimately have fun. The class and other clients in the class were also great! Thank you to those who were open to new faces. Regarding management - I highly advise you update your website to take away "one week free trial" if you do not allow just anyone to use it. Additionally, maybe get to know new faces and why they are in prior to dismissing them. There are MANY great studios in the area that are welcoming to ALL and it would be great to see more of this from your studio.

Fantastic experience: F45 will give you the BEST workout! I joined a little over a week ago when I was going through some issues and it has lifted me into a healthier and fit person. Great instructors as well!

Fantastic experience: First off, let me just say - if you’re looking for a workout where you can just be perfunctory and expect that to be condoned here, you’re not in the right place. This place is awesome - fantastic workout and great trainers who seek to push you and correct you when necessary. You’ll burn more calories here than you would in an hour somewhere else, plus they let you do two weeks for free. Additionally, this is not one of those gyms where you can do a free class, and then they won’t stop bugging you for months afterward to join. If you want to change your life, this is the place.

Fantastic experience: It doesn’t get better than F45! F45 is perfect and challenging for any person no matter where they are in their fitness journey. The excercises are extremely difficult when performed correctly, any hardcore athlete will be gasping for air after a cardio class or sore after a strength class. Even if you are just starting to workout, the excercises are tough but do-able, and the staff is so supportive and understanding that they’ll push you to points you never thought you could reach. Additionally, the staff is so knowledgeable that they will offer alternatives so that people struggling can perform the excersices or so that people with injuries can perform them. The best part of F45, second to the intense training, is the relationships you form with your class mates as you high five after a tough class, but also with your trainers, who never fail to remember your name and everything else you tell them about yourself. F45 is truly addicting and for some reason you’ll keep coming back for more. It is the most effective way to burn calories in just 45 minutes. If you’re bored doing the same old thing at a different studio or confused at the gym, then F45 is for you because no 2 classes are the same. The excersices vary so much that it actually becomes fun, and you learn so many movements and lifts that you didn’t know existed!

Fantastic experience: I have always hated going to gyms for classes, but f45 is awesome! Great diversity in the workouts and all the instructors are amazing, very supportive not annoying. All you have to do is show up, work hard for 45 minutes and you will have a great workout!

Fantastic experience: F45 is a fun high intensity workout, you’ll become addicted! The staff is amazing and they always push you with form, the best weight, and encouragement. It is such an uplifting atmosphere. I love all the different types of classes they provide and the flexible schedule! I look forward to going to the gym in the morning. The amount of calories you burn is crazy and I would recommend this place to anyone no matter where you are in your health journey. LOVE love F45!!!!!

Fantastic experience: F45 is such a fun high intensity workout, you’ll become addicted! The staff is incredible and always pushes you to do your best, creating such an uplifting atmosphere. I love all the different types of classes they provide and the flexible schedule! The amount of calories you burn is INSANE and I would recommend this place to anyone in a heartbeat! Totally worth it!!

Fantastic experience: Best work out ever! All the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. The workouts are ever changing and challenging. You can make it as hard or easy as you want. All moves are shown with modifications so there are no excuses for not trying! I personally have had life changing results. All health numbers have dropped from dangerous levels to "normal" range with no medication! 20+ overall inches lost and down 23#. Gain in muscle is absolutely visible in just 4 short months! I am over 50, post menopausal with nothing to lose and everything to gain. Try the 2 week free trial. I experienced No high pressure to join.

Fantastic experience: F45 is awesome. The trainers are very nice and super energetic.
