CrossFit® Harwood Heights: Opinions

Fantastic experience: When I first started going here everyone was very helpful and welcoming.
Fantastic experience: I am not a ‘gym person’, but working with CrossFit harwood heights has given me a confidence to use equipment in a way that is simple and clear. I’ve found that I really enjoy the workout and feel that I have a growing confidence that I could do this by myself. For me, this aspect of training is so important, as I’ve never really wanted to exercise. Now it seems to be a natural and growing part of me. I found Hayley coaching style excellent. She really listened to me and made me feel completely differently about training.Hayley has given me the tools to want to exercise independently and enjoy it. Something I never thought could happen. I would wholeheartedly recommend cross fit harwood heights to everyone and in fact already have. specially coach Hayley She is kind, thoughtful and really tries to understand the person she is training. Empowering them to get the best out of themselves. One great thing about coach Hayley is that she never judges you. She has this amazing way of making you reflect and come out with answers that are truthful and positive. coach Hayley is very inclusive and tries to understand why the person feels the way they do about training, and tackle that. It is actually liberating.
Fantastic experience: Everyone is so friendly and encouraging! Its honestly the best program I've ever joined
Thanks for the amazing review! Our amazing fitness community is really what makes us the best gym In the Chicagoland area. We couldn’t do it without all our amazing members like you!

Fantastic experience: I feel reborn now that I'm apart of this team. It was really the spark I needed in my 40's. It's something fun and healthy that my daughter and I are getting to do together.
This wouldn’t be the best fitness community in Norridge & Harwood Heights without folks like you! We absolutely love that you come with your daughter and show her that we still have to lift heavy and do hard things as we get older!

All of the instructors take time to demonstrate the lifts with you to make sure you feel comfortable and prepared.

They are challenging and motivating. No class is identical. I’ve really enjoyed my time so far. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Harwood Heights CrossFit is a supportive workout family. The coaches are great. I could not be more thankful for their instruction and support. The people that work out there are also pretty awesome. I would highly recommend joining !
Kristine, Thank you for being part of our fitness community! We are extremely grateful that you decided to bring us along on your fitness journey. We're excited to serve you!
Fantastic experience: Dropped in while working the area! Awesome gym. Super friendly coaches/staff and a fun atmosphere! Definitely recommend!
Thanks for dropping in Cory! It was wonderful getting to meet you! As the closest CrossFit gym to O'Hare airport we take immense pride in treating all our drop in customers like family. Don't be a stranger and make sure you visit with us again next time you fly into the Chicagoland area.
Fantastic experience: I made it to my 4th week and just love this place! Shout out to all the coaches that I've met so far, Matt, Mary, Kat, Vanessa, both Steve's and sweet little Tux. They are highly trained and their main focus is making sure you are doing the moves correctly before adding weight. I felt comfortable on my very first day and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking to get started with Crossfit. Plus, the 5:30am-ers rock!
It has been an absolute pleasure having you in our 5:30 am CrossFit class. Your energy and willingness to participate is contagious. Thanks for choosing us to be a part of your fitness journey!
Fantastic experience: First time in a CrossFit gym and I have felt so welcomed. It’s a very clean gym, lots of equipment, all in great condition and the people are extremely warm—friendly and knowledgeable!! CFHH is the place to be if you’d like to get a killer workout in and learn the proper techniques without any judgement.
Shannon thank you so much for the kind words. It is an incredible honor to receive reviews like this... especially from another successful small business owner like yourself. We are so very happy to serve you!
Fantastic experience: The trainers are absolutely brilliant and atmosphere is amazing!! Definitely recommend.
Thank you Eileen!
Fantastic experience: CrossFit boxes are supposed to be friendly, Harwood Heights is super friendly!
Thanks Thomas! As the closest CrossFit gym near O'Hare airport we take pride in being friendly and welcoming. Just like yourself we get drop ins from all over the world while visiting the Chicagoland area or while flying in and out of O'hare International Airport. We also get visitors from other Mayhem Affiliates so they can follow right along with their programming from their home gym!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great vibes, great people!
Thanks Ruben! We truly strive to be the best gym near you!
Fantastic experience: This is such a great place. Everyone is so kind and so helpful. The trainers are very friendly and approachable. They have a lot of programs to offer. So take the time and ask about which one would work for you. I’m generally a very shy and awkward/nervous person and I always feel comfortable coming in. If you are serious about wanting to get in shape, and get stronger/better endurance I recommend this place. It’s not an overwhelming environment and the owners/coaches really are here to help. They have always gotten back quickly to me via email/text. They took the time to explain everything and not make me feel like I’m being rushed.
Julia! Thank you so much for the great review. We’re so happy you picked us to help you on your fitness journey. We’ll continue to work hard and provide you with the best CrossFit gym experience possible! Keep up the good work!
Fantastic experience: Gym is clean, coaches are fantastic, the owners are very professional and courteous. Staff all around are well trained and answered all my questions. Well versed in CrossFit. As a first timer myself, they took the time to work with me one on one, until I felt comfortable with the training. If you’re looking for a CrossFit gym on the NW side, or anywhere for that matter, look no further! This place is absolutely fantastic…. You’ll be sore, but that just means it’s working! I highly recommend. Great for first timers and pros alike! This place is awesome!
Rich thank you for the great review! And thank you for not only allowing us to be part of not only your fitness, but your kids CrossFit Kids journey as well!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to this gym for about 6 months and it has made such a difference. The coaches are wonderful, helpful and motivating. The community of people I’ve met are awesome; no negativity, intimidation or rudeness. Everyone cheers each other on to finish and shares tips on improving movement. I cannot recommend this gym enough!
Victoria! You have come leaps and bounds since you first came in 6 months ago. Who would have thought you’d be nailing push jerks with heavy weight over your head like that! Keep up the great work! We’re so happy to have members like you to help build the best CrossFit community in 60706!
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I’ve had the opportunity to train at. The coaches are top notch and extremely proficient in what they’re teaching. The gym itself is extremely clean and user friendly. As CrossFit gyms go, I feel that the level of community set forth by this gym is second to none. Extremely first responder friendly, which is a huge plus. Definitely recommend this gym and staff to anybody seeking to up their fitness game.
One of the best parts of our day is when the security camera “dings” and we get to see you and your kids come in and workout together with your 24/7 after hours access. It’s the little stiff that makes this CrossFit community so awesome! Keep up the hard work Chris!
Fantastic experience: Taking a class with coach Steven was great, he is very supportive and motivates individuals taking his class in a way that you would want to continue taking his class. Most of the trainers are great!
Thanks Ho! Coach Steve loves working with clients, especially new clients and clients who may have never work d out before. CrossFit Harwood Heights is for everyone!
Fantastic experience: Really happy I signed up here. Great work out with knowledgeable, professional trainers who build health & confidence
Thanks for the 5 star review Rae!
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love the facility and enjoy every class (Women’s Power). The staff is so supportive and motivating!! I had no clue what I was doing on my first class and they worked with me and made me feel so comfortable. Thank you!!! Highly recommended, even for people like me who have never done anything like this before!
That women’s power class has a special energy to it that cannot be replicated in any other way at any other facility. Coach Vince and Coach Steve sometimes make their way into that class and coach every so often so they can get some of that special energy only found in the Power program!
Fantastic experience: The coaches at CFHH are knowledgable, friendly and professional. They take the time to explain workouts and provide modifications when and if needed. The gym has a wonderful sense of community, where all feel welcome. Highly recommend!
Beth, thank you so very much for being a long standing member at our gym, and for showing up and working hard every day! We are truly lucky to have you as part of our amazing CrossFit Community!
Fantastic experience: Great gym, I stayed here for only a month but I love it here, all the coach are welcoming, friendly, responsive. People in the gym are also really cool too, gotta love the CFHH community
We are so grateful to be part of your fitness journey before you joined the military. Its truly an honor to work with folks like you!
Fantastic experience: I have worked with two coaches so far, both are great.
Thanks for always coming in and working hard Luis!
Fantastic experience: All the trainers are super nice and take an interest in you no matter what fitness level you’re at. Everyday is a new training, so it is never boring. Would highly recommend!
Thank you for the kind review Milica!
Fantastic experience: It's a great gym - unlike any other. Strenuous workout every time you go and different each time. Everyone is welcoming and helpful. Instructors are terrific, focused and watchful. I've recommended this program to many people.
Thanks for recommending us to your friends and family! Its truly an honor to have our members speak this highly of our coaching staff and facility. We truly strive to be the best gym in the Norridge and Harwood Heights neighborhood.
Fantastic experience: Awesome people
Thanks Zack! You're pretty awesome too!
Fantastic experience: Great gym. I dropped in from Texas. Whenever I travel I always drop in somewhere and you never know what you're going to get. CF Harwood Heights is so welcoming and encouraging. I hit a PR today 100% due to the coach. Seriously thinking about changing my flight home so I can go one more day!!
Thanks for the great review Jerry! We're so glad that you decided to drop in by us. We love our drop in customers like family! We meet all sorts of amazing people (just like you) from all over the country and all over the world because we are only 7 minutes from O'Hare Airport. We take a lot of pride in being the closest CrossFit gym near O'Hare Airport and I'm very happy our coaching staff was able to help push you to a new PR!
Fantastic experience: CFHH has completely changed my outlook on working out and fitness. I was going to commercial gyms during peak times and wasn’t feeling fulfilled with my workouts. After starting CrossFit, I have been looking forward to coming to this gym and have met so many helpful coaches/members. With CrossFit being new to me, I didn’t know what to expect and after 3 months I feel confident because of the support from the coaches. It’s a great feeling being around other people who are pushing you to be better and stronger. The environment is addicting and you will see and feel results from the work you are putting in here! Coming from someone with no prior CrossFit experience, I highly recommend trying CFHH!
Thanks for the great review Brianna! We’ve really enjoyed having you party of our fitness community. We’re glad that you chose us out of all the chicago suburbs and surrounding gyms
Fantastic experience: I started at CFHH in 2017, because i was having some issues with an old knee injury and needed to rehab it. The coaches at CFHH have always been very knowledgeable and supportive. Nowadays my legs are significantly stronger and much of my pain has gone away. The structured programming helps alot because, being a father of three kids, I dont have alot of time for exercise preparation. I just need to show up and after the hour class, it never fails I am beat from the WOD. The group classes are the best part because everyone is pushing each other through it. It reminds me of high school sports practice abd it makes it easier to power through as a team. Definitely would recommend to drop in and check it out.
Eric, you’re always a hard worker in the gym and an integral part of our fitness community! It’s people like you who make us the best strength and conditioning gym on Chicago’s northwest side.
Fantastic experience: Great workouts and extremely friendly community! Highly recommend!
Erin comes to class and kick’s butt every time! She helps push our members and always shows sound technique no matter how tired she is!
