CrossFit^® Downtown Atlanta and Atl Barbell

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great facility, and a great group of peers to grind it out with.

Fantastic experience: Really impressed with how this gym is run and organized. Each person has their own station, can work at their own skill level and Michael and team will adapt workouts so you can participate for any WOD. All the coaches actively teach you the right form. Friendly community and lots of convenient scheduling options. If you are curious about CrossFit and want a great workout, give this place a try.

Fantastic experience: It's my home gym! The most knowledgeable and personable coaches and the community of members are the kindest human beings in the Crossfit community.

Fantastic experience: I've been to a few CrossFit gyms, and this one is my favorite in Atlanta. The coaches are excellent, the gym is clean, and the community is great -- it doesn't feel cliquey or overly competitive. There's a good variety of skills-based and strength-based programming, and as other reviewers have mentioned, each athlete gets their own square so you're not fighting for equipment. Definitely check this place out!

Fantastic experience: I dropped in from NYC - Great crew and well run box! Folks were friendly, equipment was in great shape and coach was knowledgeable- highly recommend. Great location right off the belt line if you feel like a little run before or after

Fantastic experience: Love CDFA! Coaches are great and I especially like that it is a welcoming atmosphere for all fitness levels whether you’re a beginner or an experienced athlete.

Fantastic experience: Love it, good energy and hard core work out. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable and friendly coaches, organized facility, and great community. What sets CFDA apart from other crossfit gyms in Atlanta is they focus on each athlete, from beginner to elite. Classes are small, so everyone gets personal coaching based on individual needs and abilities.

Fantastic experience: I have been in many boxes around the world, and I have to say I am extremely impressed of how professional the coaches are in this place, focusing so much on right technique and proper movement execution. If you go to ATLANTA, that is your place to go!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a class and they couldn't have been more inviting. The owner Michael, the coaches, and the community were incredibly welcoming. If you live in the Atlanta area or just visiting, this is the CrossFit to go to.

Fantastic experience: Had the opportunity to drop-in on Thanksgiving day for a WOD with Coach Marcus and let me say, the environment was encouraging. Had the privilege to meet the owner Michael and his wife, they were super sweet and inviting. If we return to the area, we will be sure to drop in again! Thank you

Fantastic experience: Y

Fantastic experience: BeST CF establishment I have been to. Coaches are world class, equipment is great quality, community is very welcoming. I love it there.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while in town for a conference. Great atmosphere - Michael, the owner, and Helen, the coach for class, were super welcoming. Will definitely be back again next time I’m in town!

Fantastic experience: The best place to stop at if you’re in ATL. Michael went above and beyond for me to be able to do my quarterfinals while I was in town. Also had so much support and hospitality from other members. Felt just like I was home. So happy I went there. Thanks again!

Fantastic experience: I’ve dropped in at CrossFit Downtown Atlanta a couple times and it is where I took my L1. Each time I’m here, I’m so impressed with the coaching staff. They are knowledgeable and friendly, watching everyone for form correction and happy to talk about the WOD and stimulus. It’s a great set up, I’d drop in here anytime and if I lived in Atlanta I’d definitely be a member!

Fantastic experience: These folks were awesome! Dropped in to complete an Open workout while traveling. Everyone was super welcoming and encouraging.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place!! Great coaches, great owner, great culture

Fantastic experience: Great place. Great people. Was in Atlanta just for a summer and they treated me like a regular. Learned a lot and got in better shape.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while on vacation. Very friendly coaches and members. The facility is really well equipped. I plan on coming back when in Atlanta again

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! The workouts were awesome, the coaches and staff we super supportive and helpful, and the members were very kind. 10/10 would recommend for dropping in!

Fantastic experience: I can't think of anything I'd want in a gym, that this place doesn't offer! CrossFit Downtown ATL has ample racks, plates, and barbells for pumping some sick iron. Foam rollers, resistance bands, the works. Even the nicest Assault Bike I've ever put my bum on. The staff is really kind and supportive, wherever you are in your fitness journey. I should note, my main context for this gym is that they have hosted the USA's only Trans And Nonbinary Powerlifting Meet for 2 years running. I really appreciate having such a supportive space to practice my sport!

Fantastic experience: I've been going here about a year now and honestly the best experience at a cross fit gym I've ever had since leaving California. Recently enrolled my son for the Foundations course. Marques and Michael are a legit godsend. My kid went from being shy and timid to realizing he can do something he only sees his big cousins do. I will be staying here as long as we are in Atlanta.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of several CrossFit gyms and Michael and his staff at CrossFit Downtown have created the best experience I’ve seen anywhere. Michael truly cares about the members and goes out of his way to make sure people are happy and that the gym is in great shape. For example, when the pandemic hit (once the gym opened back up) he created personal workout stations for everyone and capped class size for safety. Each station had its own dumbbells, barbells, kettlebells, box, pull-up rig …. Everything you would need for just about any wod. It’s that level of service and attention to detail that sets CFDA apart. The last thing I’ll say is that the community there is amazing. It didn’t have any of the “bro” type vibes or “cliques” that I’ve seen at other gyms. It felt like family there. Would rate 10/10. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while I was in town for work. Staff were professional and welcoming ! Box is well maintained and clean ! Thanks Michael and team

Fantastic experience: I had a great time. The coaches and the community were very welcoming. I'm definitely coming back when I'm in town again.

Fantastic experience: Welcoming gym with excellent COVID preparedness, programming, and facilities.

Fantastic experience: Going to CFDA is the best hour of my day!

Fantastic experience: Great programming and welcoming environment, highly recommend for those who are dropping in or wanting to start CrossFit.

Fantastic experience: Best crossfit gym! I have recently moved away from Atlanta to California and am still struggling to find a box that matches CFDTA's high operation standard. The coaches are very knowledgeable, and they are constantly learning new coaching skills and crossfit techniques to help us get better form. They really want you to push hard and make progress! I started crossfit at this gym and was so glad to have been surrounded by the great community throughout. CFDTA takes covid precautions very seriously. The owner, Michael, set up individual stations with all the pieces of equipment you need, such as squat racks, dumbbells, and kettlebells of different weights, rings, pull up bars, so we don't have to share equipment with anyone else during the workout and also minimizes gym members from getting in close contact. Each station is 6 feet apart (or even a bit more). Michael really goes above and beyond to make us feel safe working out at his gym! Go to CFDTA! You won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Downtown Atlanta is a fantastic CrossFit gym. I have belonged to 5 CrossFit gyms during my 9 years of CrossFit. This gym has the best equipment inventory of all the gyms and keeps it organized and clean. Coaching staff is focussed on form which is a must. Definitely a gym for all ages and types not a gym just for elite athletes although anyone who does CrossFit should be considered an elite athlete. You can book your classes a week out and some are harder to get into.

Fantastic experience: Came here for a training. Super friendly staff, great facility and space. Lots of stuff nearby to walk to. Tons of parking. Could not have been happier with my experience. The owner Michael was awesome!

Fantastic experience: The coaches are great. Great community of people in the gym. Go there and get fit and healthy.

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out. The coaches and people who come here are all really nice and positive.

Fantastic experience: Great crossfit box. Did a drop-in class (which can be booked online) and had a great experience! Friendly instructor and hefty WOD. Will definitely come back here when back in town.

Fantastic experience: Wife and I dropped in while on a road trip. Easily booked in online. Good coaching, great space, great equipment and atmosphere. 10 out 10 would go again.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I dropped in to workout while stopping in town. He did the crossfit class and I did open gym. It is always great when we find a gym where they will allow me to do open gym during a crossfit class. He enjoyed the class and the programming for the day and they had everything I need to complete my weightlifting programming. It was super easy to sign up for the drop in on their website. We will definitely stop back at this gym next time we are in the area.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I stopped in during the holidays, we absolutely loved this box. We both felt as if we were at home here. The couches were very insightful, and knowledgeable. I also loved the attention to detail and cleanliness off the box. Ended up doing the 12 days of Christmas wod and it was fantastic. Thank you guys so much , we will definitely stop by again next time we are in town.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. My wife and I joined about 15 months ago and it has become the core foundation to our health and wellness (the couple's discount is a nice perk!). We were a bit intimidated at first since neither of us had a CF background but were instantly relieved from the intimate coaching experience you receive here. The community of people is very welcoming and encouraging and they slowly become your new family over time. There are folks with various fitness goals and backgrounds which makes it even more welcoming for those of us who are past our competitive prime and are simply looking to be healthy and fit. I have several friends and family members who are members at other boxes who constantly envy and compare their boxes to the Downtown Atlanta location. The community engagement, the programming, and the coaching really sets this box apart from what I have gathered. This is the only box I've been a member at but I never want to leave! Additionally, it is worth mentioning that I have never felt so valued at a gym as I have here. The owner, Michael, values each member like they're a part of his family. He has also transformed the gym to accommodate the "new normal" of COVID-19. I am actually pleasantly surprised about how safe and comfortable I feel attending class. Even during the quarantine, Michael loaned out equipment at no extra cost for members to take home so we could continue virtual classes at our homes. And he still continues those virtual classes for members who may not feel comfortable coming back quite yet. If you are unsure and new to CF like I was, I promise that you won't be disappointed at this location. I've done everything from organized sports, to $30 gym members, to more expensive Orange Theory to try to find the motivation I need to stay healthy and fit. True, CF is not cheap, but for the first time in my life, I have not once questioned the amount I pay. There is a cost for coaching and programming sure, but the community and sense of value as a paying member is priceless and if that's what you're looking for, then CFDTA is the place for you!

Fantastic experience: Took the opportunity of a long layover at the airport to get in a work out. Michael was available to welcome me and show me around. He did a great job coaching the work out and explaining each movement from war-up though the MetCon. Great facility, helpful coach, and supportive athletes. Will gladly drop in again when able.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! I went to CFDA for a while in 2018 and came back once I was permanently in Atlanta. The coaching staff and owner are amazing. I've never worked out in such an open and accepting gym. You feel welcome from the moment you step in.

Fantastic experience: Wir machten auf unserm Südstaatentrip ein Drop In beim CF Downtown Atlanta. Unser Coach Jenn war sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das Drop in funktioniert sehr unkompliziert. Die Klasse am Morgen 0630 war gut gefüllt und das WOD gut strukturiert Alles in allem ein super Erlebnis. Kann ich nur weiterempfehlen! Nochmal Vielen Dank ans Crossfit Downtown Atlanta!

Fantastic experience: Great staff, and awesome community. Definitely worth checking them out.

Fantastic experience: Michael the owner truly cares. Ask how they program.

Fantastic experience: Great place, great people!

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing gym with an equally amazing community. The workouts are HARD but FUN, and the vibe of the gym is supportive and professional yet down-to-earth. I recommend checking this place out.

Fantastic experience: Go to this gym. Trust me. You pay for the best. You get the best. Incredible coaches and more importantly incredible community. You will not leave.

Fantastic experience: I had a great time at this gym. The class was very well structured and everyone was extremely welcoming. If your a drop in like I was this is definitely the spot for you.

Fantastic experience: Great coaching staff! Gym is very open and clean! best pull-ups bars I've ever been on. Michael, the owner, is a nice guy who welcomes everybody.

Fantastic experience: In my recent business trip to USA I had traveled to Argentina to attain one meeting and thought if I could take one crossfit classes close by. Somehow I found this crossfit downtown. I had emailed them , called them and then took the drop in classes. Since it was a new place to me, it took lillte longer time to reach at the destination and I was little late for the class. But I requested the trainer and he allowed to me attain the class. It was an amazing experiences. I myself own fitness center (Called Maniac Lads ) in India and multiple fitness certificate holders as well. I have two years of experiences in doing and teaching crossfit workout over India. But I attainted the class as a student and really enjoyed. Trainer was able to help me to fundamental correction and the group was me was also awesome. I don't remember the name but I got a chance to meet the Crossfit Downtown Box Owner's wife and she welcomed me and spoke with me for few min. Overall it was an amazing experinces.. I would love to come back in future in my next visit to USA. Convery my hi to all trainers .

Fantastic experience: My wife and I dropped in while we were in town and had a great time. Michael and the members treated us just like we were part of their community for a long time, I can't say enough good things. We will definitely be dropping by again whenever we are in town.

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this gym. I was in a slump before I joined. I was trying to get my strength back after a back injury, and i was drained mentally and physically (and emotionally). I didn't feel like I had the tools I needed to reach my goals and get back to where i was, and it was extremely discouraging. Luckily, a dear sweet friend of mine led me to CFDA and I couldn't be happier. I am 100% confident in saying this is the best (and nicest) coaching i have ever received. I learn something every single class. Really. These coaches pay attention to each of us and make sure to give individualized advice to their athletes. The vibe and atmosphere is nonjudgmental, supportive, encouraging, and humorous It's so awesome to see myself getting back to where I was before my injury, re-learning the RIGHT and SAFE way to do things. The coaching staff is so knowledgeable and approachable. I really can't say enough good things about this place. And the members are just as wonderful. Soooooo supportive. I mean, I can't imagine getting up at 5:30 AM and looking forward to going somewhere the way i look forward to going to my AM class.

Fantastic experience: I started going to Crossfit Downtown Atlanta in January of this year. As someone who did not have much a fitness background I needed a lot of help and support to make my goal of becoming fit a reality. The two week beginner course helps you get more comfortable with all the movements and is preferable than other boxes which either set you up with a trainer or don’t have a structured intro at all. Michael, the owner, is the heart and soul of the place. Not only super knowledgeable but he also cares about your success and improvement. The box itself is big enough to accommodate 12 people well but not too big where it feels awkward. The folks here are welcoming and you’re likely to make a few new friends. As for results I can run way farther and can lift heavier. That’s the point right?

Fantastic experience: Dropped in from Florida and had a great workout. I travel for work 3+ days a week so I feel like I drop into other gyms more than I go to my own sometimes so I’ve got a good barometer. Drop in rate was on the high side at $25, but good facility, good Instruction, Friendly coaches and nice selection of shirts!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t be happier I found this gym. Since I joined in June of this year I have lost 30 pounds, I have never puked, and never been hurt. All the things that people say about CrossFit are false except for it’s the best decision you will ever make! The coaches here are excellent, friendly, and personable. They never push you to do beyond what you can do. In fact they put form above anything else and tell you to back off and wait if your form is not correct. I’m so glad I chose this gym over any other one. CrossFit Downtown Atlanta has seriously changed my life!!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for over 2 years now. I've been to other CF gyms but this one gets it right. The coaches are knowledgeable, the gym is clean and well-organized, the community is awesome and encouraging, and the programming keeps me engaged. If you are in Atlanta, you must check out this gym. You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: They were amazing the coaches and the members they welcomed me and I felt like am on my home with my family thank you.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member here for over 2 years, maybe 3 years now? It's one of the best gyms I've been too. Any gym typically has the standard equipment, however, what puts Crossfit Downtown Atlanta ahead of others are the staff members and the community. The staff are all very helpful, friendly and most importantly welcoming of newcomers. The community, which are the members, are also very welcoming. If you want a place that you can come workout at with amazing guidance and a community that will support you, this is the place to be! Come check it out!!!

Fantastic experience: I did two drop-ins while visiting Atlanta for work, and was so impressed with the quality of coaching, the amazing welcome of the other members, and the way they structure their weekly WODs. The owner was absolutely "on-it," and the programming was fantastic. And for anyone looking for a drop-in while being stuck in a conference all day, the location is in a fun neighborhood that let me walk to some nearby local attractions and enjoy Atlanta a little more. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym over two years ago and let me tell you, best decision I’ve ever made! I was in need of a big life change and with the help of these amazing coaches and all the friendly, welcoming members I got it. You’ll get in shape, have a blast doing it, and make some great friends in the process. I 100% recommend CFDA, I love it and know you will too!

Fantastic experience: Great place and very clean box!

Fantastic experience: Michael really knows how to run an efficient operation

Fantastic experience: Great place for drop in training

Fantastic experience: Great gym and community. I dropped in while in town. Friendly staff and awesome community. Looking forward to coming back in.

Fantastic experience: Did a drop in while in Atlanta in business. Well worth the trip. They have a great community and I’ll be coming back when I’m in town again.

Fantastic experience: Was a drop in from out of town . This CrossFit gym is an awesome and welcoming place! Definitely worth checking out.

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches and great community - they were super welcoming when i was in town for buisness

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, coaches, staff and folks. Definitely check this place out.

Fantastic experience: Coach Dan was awesome! Got a great workout and a t-shirt! Def the place to “drop in” if visiting the ATL!

Fantastic experience: Clean box, nice equipment, welcoming atmosphere, and exceptional coaching. I would highly recommend joining or dropping in if you’re an out of towner!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! I have been to a couple dozen boxes across the country, and this one has strong community and excellent coaching.

Fantastic experience: Great drop-in experience. Michael’s coaching was excellent. Gym was well organized and clean! As always, great community!

Fantastic experience: Love Love Love this gym! The owner and staff are not only incredibly knowledgeable, they are also fun and supportive. They are encouraging, and it's like working out with your best friends every day! A great place for health and community!

Fantastic experience: 5 Star Experience! Great coaches and they programing was excellent. This is a must drop in or join if you live here. I came in a stranger and walked out looking forward to my next trip.

Fantastic experience: As a former member of multiple gyms & "boxes" & fitness programs I can say that this gym's owners have it dialed in. The positive attitude of Michael is infectious and spreads throughout the culture. Although he is a little obsessive with cleanliness(one of the workouts is dubbed the "chalk monster" because he hates chalk messes) and all things Star Wars I can say that I have had a great experience here.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a place to get a great workout, look no further than Crossfit Downtown Atlanta. Whether you're new to Crossfit and/or fitness or a seasoned pro, you will fit right in. The coaches are friendly and knowledgeable, and the members are so encouraging and fun. The programming has lots of variety and always leaves me feeling like a rock star (a sweaty rock star. lol). The owner is constantly looking for ways to make the gym the best place to break a sweat in Atlanta, and you can tell all the staff really care and are passionate about their craft.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in at this gym three times last week. Trainers and members were all very friendly. $8-$12 Uber ride from downtown (depending on time of day). I was worried it would be difficult to do the Open workout while traveling, but CF DT ATL made it really easy for me to do it on the road. Thanks for having me!

Fantastic experience: 5 star box! really enjoyed the atmosphere and experience. Coaching was on point and the other athletes were welcoming and nice. everything was clean and well organized! I would go back to visit Atlanta anytime and would make sure to come back to this box! thanks guys! -Garrett

Fantastic experience: I have been to a lot of gyms in Atlanta and over the years crossfit has changed a bit but CFDA is always improving for the better. The community is great and I love the programming. It's a gym that still feels like family after so many gyms have turned into competition machines.

Fantastic experience: Having never tried CrossFit before joining this gym, this was one of the first few spots I went to talk to and check it out. I couldn't recommend them any higher. All of the coaches are awesome. They have built themselves a great community and I very much enjoy my every minute there, mostly... The workouts kick my butt every visit, but I still look forward to my next. Thanks y'all!

Fantastic experience: When I first walked into Michael’s gym as never have tried CrossFit I didn’t know what to expect. Two years later after joining I continue to recommend CrossFit and particularly this gym. The community are people like me, the coaches are people I want to learn from, the owner puts his members first, and the programming has made me a better athlete. I smile always when I enter and I smile after the WOD (once I’ve recovered). Everyone loves their home box, but there is something special about this place.

Fantastic experience: Great place. Dropped in while on my trip was able to get my shirt and cover the drop in fee. Great and friendly coaches. Will pass by again when in town.

Fantastic experience: Great company! Michael's does a wonderful job running this gym and genuinely cares about the health and sanitation of his patrons.

Fantastic experience: Went to CFDTATL while I was in town from Montreal. Felt right at home right away with the coaches and members. Did an intense WOD and was well coached throughout the class. Only negative is that I was not able to go again during my week in ATL.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend CFDA. I have been a member for 3 years and I am very happy training there. All the coaches at CFDA are very friendly and professional. My time and money is well spent at CFDA.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while in town and thought this was such a nice, clean, well organized, friendly gym. Coach Michael was helpful and had good input for me. Great workout and would definitely visit again. Thanks!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in on Feb 22nd, and enjoyed the workout with the team. It is the first box where I have seen crossfit kids. And the ropes here are the best I have seen. Good luck in the coming Open, buddies in the box!

Fantastic experience: Had such a fun time dropping in at CFDA! We were in town for Regionals and wanted to check out a box in Atlanta. Michael could not have been more accommodating. He even added classes for the weekend to fit everyone in. The vibe was welcoming and the programming was great. Michael was super knowledgeable and could not have been more friendly. If you find yourself in Atlanta and need a good sweat, go see Crossfit Downtown Atlanta!!

Fantastic experience: CFDA is a high quality facility! I dropped in twice within a year and both times exceeded my expectations. Online class process is easy. Mike, the owner, is a really knowledgeable coach - and also pleasant and just a nice guy! The gym is clean and has well maintained equipment. Great place to work out!

Fantastic experience: Great box, thanks for hospitality... Phil, PEI Canada.

Fantastic experience: best crossfit gym Georgia!

Fantastic experience: Whether you're a new or experienced CrossFitter, definitely check this place out. The staff and owner are welcoming, helpful and genuinely want you to be a healthier, happier person.

Fantastic experience: This is a great CrossFit gym with a exceptional coaches, the atmosphere that they maintain allows for a diverse mix of people of different ages and skill levels to workout together seemlessly. I highly recommend them to any and all.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I dropped in from out of town. Michael and Anya really made us feel like we were part of their group. They really take time to work with you and make you better. You won't be disappointed here!

Fantastic experience: I'm not the youngest member there and yet I seem to get along great with their focused instructors and challenging WOD's. This is the third box I've belonged to and this is the best one yet. This place is a "keeper."

Fantastic experience: I dropped in and was blown away by the great hospitality of Coach Mike and the affiliate athletes. This box is one of the cleanest boxes I've been to, and houses an extensive array of equipment. Next time I'm in Atlanta I will work out at CFDTATL! If you're looking for a box in the ATL, look no further- CFDTATL is here for you!

Fantastic experience: Went to Crossfit Downtown Atlanta and really enjoyed it. Very welcoming Box with great facilities and good coaching. Thanks for letting me drop in. I liked it so much, I bought a Tee Shirt!

Fantastic experience: I dropped in from Ottawa, ON, Canada coming from CrossFit Closer. It was such a welcoming atmosphere. I felt right at home and the coaches provided excellent feedback. I will drop in again on my next visit. Great job! Bob

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a great workout and welcoming community try CrossFit Downtown Atlanta! The owner Michael is always looking for ways to improve your experience! The coaches are knowledgeable and take time to make sure you are getting a workout that is challenging, safe, and tailored to your skill level!.

Fantastic experience: Awesome box! I came to Atlanta as an exchange Student for 9 month and had been a member at CFDA from the beginning. I loved the great, welcoming atmosphere, CF socials, equipment, individual coaching and support beyond class times! I can only recommend to visit or become a member of this box!!!
