Fantastic experience: Been working out at Bulldog for about a year and a half now and it's been fantastic. Awesome community, awesome coaches and awesome workouts. I wanted a challenge from my covid garage workouts and Bulldog has certainly delivered. Love getting stronger everyday and learning new movements. Come join us!

Fantastic experience: It's like 16 or 17 years for me at Bulldog. The people are great. The workouts are varied and thus never dull. One thing that I know scares some people away from CrossFit is "it's crazy hard". It can be, but it is all scalable to what works for you. I'm nearing 72. Can't do what I once could, but I do what I can do. And I keep coming. You should too. ;-)

Fantastic experience: Love this place! I'm definitely not strong, but always feel amazing once I get back from class. Everyone is encouraging and nice. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had the pleasure of participating in Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit for the past year, and I can confidently say it has been one of the most transformative experiences of my fitness journey. One of the standout features of Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit is the incredible coaching staff. Coaches Elisa, Jessica, Luis, and Noah are not only knowledgeable and experienced, but they also genuinely care about each member’s progress and well-being. All four have unique ability to motivate and inspire. Their enthusiasm during workouts is infectious, and they all consistently push you to give your best, all while ensuring that you maintain proper form and technique. What truly sets Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit apart is the incredible clientele. The members here are not just workout partners; they are a supportive family. Everyone encourages each other, whether you’re hitting a personal record or just getting through a tough day. The camaraderie is palpable, creating an environment where you feel safe to challenge yourself and grow. From the moment I joined, I felt an unmistakable sense of belonging. The atmosphere at Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit is warm and inviting, with a focus on inclusivity that makes it easy to fit right in, no matter your fitness level. It’s refreshing to be in a place where everyone is genuinely happy to see you and where personal achievements are celebrated collectively. In summary, my experience at Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit has been nothing short of fantastic. With exceptional coaches like Elisa, Jessica, Luis, and Noah leading the way and a supportive clientele that feels like family, I have not only improved my fitness but also found a community that inspires me every day. If you’re looking for a place to challenge yourself physically while being surrounded by a nurturing and motivating atmosphere, I wholeheartedly recommend Bulldog Bootcamp and CrossFit. Join us—you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: Been going here for a year and some change now, WAY better than Spero(which I left as the classes were skewed towards the older crowd). The classes leave you on the floor and the coaches are great. There's no judgement here unlike other gyms as I tend to finish the fastest and lift the heaviest weights. I would recommend to the highest degree. Parking is plentiful and I never have an issue. My only complaint is that I wish it was closer but is that even a complaint really? Female owned and she's awesome. Love it here

Fantastic experience: The Chicago-style gym is great! Classes run throughout the day, which fits anyone’s schedule.

Fantastic experience: Bulldog Bootcamp Fitness is the real deal! I first started going last summer but had to take a break due to some shoulder issues. I finally made it back this past Saturday, and I was reminded why I love this place so much. The workouts are tough but rewarding, and the instructors push you in the best way possible. It’s the perfect mix of challenge and motivation, and no matter where you are in your fitness journey, you’ll leave feeling accomplished. Can’t wait to keep coming back and pushing myself even further! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: If you want to get fit, get stronger, a supportive community, engaging coaches, and great pre-programmed workouts, this is your spot.

Fantastic experience: Been here for 10+ years and haven’t looked back! The coaches are on point and the community is so welcoming!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit is really fun! This is my happy place. Combines strength and cardio so it helps prevent osteoporosis,high blood pressure and high cholesterol and many other pathologies. This place is really chill and family friendly with motivating coaches to help work on correct technique of gymnastics and lifting . Also not overpriced like other gyms, so more people can access this healthy lifestyle ….

Fantastic experience: Hi my Name is Maria Gomez I have been a member for a year now and I can truly say this is the type of place where your important and they want to help you achieve your goal, my Trainer Jess, is very friendly and helpful, all trainers are very reliable and have knowledge on everything, I Feel at home and have achieved lots of goals here!

Fantastic experience: Coaches are super friendly welcoming and knowledgeable. 3 first class try out, helped me feel more confident about my decision to join. 8 months in and no regrets!

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience here. Everyone was super friendly. The instructor took his time explaining things and I appreciate the support everyone gave each other.

Fantastic experience: Starting Crossfit as a beginner has been an amazing experience, largely thanks to the coaches. Their guidance is clear and motivating, making the challenging workouts manageable and enjoyable. Even in the busier Bootcamp classes, there's enough space and equipment for everyone. The coaches stand out with their professional approach and personal attention to each of us, helping me improve quickly and feel confident in my abilities. Their individual instructions and encouragement make a big difference in my training.

Fantastic experience: Great place. Staff and people who work out there are friendly. Staff shows you how all workouts can be scaled to meet your needs, but still be challenging. I've also found the people who work out there to be encouraging and will gladly offer help/advice if you ask.

Fantastic experience: Excellent Crossfit WOD. Coach Gio is awesome. I was visiting from Miami and dropped in. I was welcomed and introduced to everyone. I went everyday for the rest of my vacation.

Fantastic experience: To get into shape, to learn new exercises, to meet very nice people, all-around fantastic. I did CrossFit there for about a year. Everyone there is very friendly and cool. If you need extra help, you get it. The folks live the 'fitness lifestyle' there so you get eating and diet tips, exercise advice, and they have a social aspect, too. The staff and the regulars go out for out-of-box events and dinner, drinks. Great group of people. You'll end up pushing yourself harder in a class than you will alone, and that's a good thing. Give it a shot.

Fantastic experience: Been there a couple of times as a guest and got a heck of a workout on both visits. Definitely recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Great place for a great workout. Coaches and staff are amazing!

Fantastic experience: Excellent group class work outs. Place has very friendly coaches teaching and positive people working out. Prices are reasonable with different plans and budgets for everyone. Fun and motivational classes. Coaches help with recommendations based on fitness level and help correct your bad form. Thanks for your attention to detail, friendliness, and making class fun to attend. -Leo

Fantastic experience: The only regret I have is not starting earlier. I love love love coach Friday! Definitely recommend to anyone starting or advanced. It’s a very welcoming atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: It has been close to a year since I made the decision to join the gym. Bulldog Bootcamp & Crossfit has helped me improve my health and continues to keep me motivated to come back. I have lost close to 60 pounds leaving my doctors amazed. Every morning I walk in half asleep and walk out feeling stronger. I owe it all to the great coaches.

Fantastic experience: Been going here three years, great coaches, great programming, great people!

Fantastic experience: I started here in 2012. It is the best community of adult athletes that I have ever had the privilege of being around. Bulldog is an inclusive and encouraging gym where all members have fun. You don’t need to be in-shape to start. We are all on our own path. The culture of Bulldog is you competing against yourself to become healthier and happier.

Fantastic experience: At 66 it's good to return back to bulldog. I've been wanting to get a good sweat and a good workout and to do lifting weight lifting carefully inappropriately thank you!

Fantastic experience: They have amazing coaches! I really like working out with great people!

Fantastic experience: Awesome box with the toughest programming there is. Members are encouraging and atmosphere is the perfect mix of competitive and fun!

Fantastic experience: I've been here since 2014 and it's my favorite place,excellent programming… You have to try it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fantastic experience: Terrific group of people and great programming!!

Fantastic experience: I love Bulldog. Since day one, all the coaches were super friendly and willing to teach. The environment is great and the members are also open to give suggestions and help. The facility is super spacious and we have all the right equipment. No issues with scheduling. Going now 5 times per week at least and no plans to stop.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for years. Amazing group of coaches and members. Every ability level is welcome. Just starting your fitness journey or if competing is the thing for you Bulldog is a very supportive & fun environment.

Fantastic experience: Awese place to workout! Great combination of strength and endurance workouts will make you feel like you're a step closer to your goals! Salute to the coaching staff!

Fantastic experience: The programming is the main reason to go to bulldog. Most CrossFit gyms have a very simple program per day. Usually it’s strength and then a short 5-10 min metcon. For me, I’m looking for a harder more challenging workout and this cf box provides it. Along with a strong group of members who come to most every class. 5am offers a herowod on tuesdays chosen by coach Elisa, Saturdays are like a power hour with unique workouts from coach Noah, grueling emoms and metcons that you have a hard time finishing. Sundays come in for oly in the morning and work on your lifts, one at a time. Then hit sunday funday, a full hour to finish a hard workout, dreamt up by a few of bulldogs coaches. If you’re looking to get fit, there’s plenty of options.

Fantastic experience: Great people, great workout. I'm in my late 40's and am still getting stronger and faster every day at Bulldog. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Bulldog Bootcamp has been kicking my butt (in a good way) since 4/2021. I needed someone to tell me what to do, and Bulldog delivered. It’s been the most consistent gym attendance ever for me, and it just goes to show how welcoming and motivating the coaches and members are! All levels really are welcome!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Coach Friday is amazing and always keeps us motivated.

Fantastic experience: Going to bulldog is the highlight of my day. It is great to community of people/coaches. Bulldog is my first and only crossfit/bootcamp gym. I am so much stronger than when I first joined 5 years ago. I can do pull ups, push ups, handstands, rope climbs and lift heavy weights. Bulldog empowers me.

Fantastic experience: Bulldog is an awesome CrossFit gym with helpful, attentive coaches and an amazing and supportive group of members! I’ve been attending for 10+ years. Highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Love the vibe and the workout programs are really great. Looking forward to more workout sessions.

Fantastic experience: Love dropping into this box. They communicate well and the drop in rate is extremely reasonable. I really enjoyed that some days you did two strength workouts vs just one , coupled with a conditioning piece. Whenever I visit (and don't sleep in) I drop in here. AND their T-shirts are super comfy. Everyone was welcoming and accommodating.

Fantastic experience: Great workout, good energy,

Fantastic experience: Bulldogs CrossFit is not just a traditional CrossFit box -it is a family. Great coaches, amazing owners and great teammates, it is home away from home. I highly recommend becoming a Bulldog if you are searching for a place to train and feel like family.

Fantastic experience: Had a great drop in here, solid, challenging, and efficient programming. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I love this place and I hated working out period but this place has changed my mind completely. I have met some great people and coaches. I joined a few months ago and I have already noticed the improvement in my mood and strength. I was shy at first too but they make you feel really welcoming even when teaching big classes. I look forward to my growth and excited for the many changes coming with being a member :)

Fantastic experience: I love Bulldog! I joined a little over a year ago after moving to the area. The workouts are by FAR better than I was used to coming from the city and I quickly saw strength improvements. The BEST part of this gym are all of the amazing friendships I have built in such a short amount of time, and it really feels like a second family every time I walk there. If you want an amazing workout with amazing company.....LOOK NO FURTHER!

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment, friendly staff, and very clean. During the busy times it might be difficult to get the exact machine you want, but there are enough similar machines to try instead. I have never had an issue getting a treadmill.

Fantastic experience: Great instructors and friendly community. Members of all backgrounds and abilities means that getting started is not intimidating.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this gym! I just completed the 6-week challenge. The work outs are fun and always different; they keep you wanting more. There is a meal plan that you must follow to help you meet your goals; I must say this was way tougher for me than the work outs. However, I managed to follow the plan and successfully lost 22lbs in 6 weeks, now weighing 149. This is healthy weight loss!!! There are several trainers watching to make sure your form is correct, to push you and motivate you. Other people working out here pushes you and motivates you as well. No matter what fitness level you are, this is the place for you. If you are up for the challenge, you will surely reach your goals.

Fantastic experience: The gym is very clean and has amazing facilities. It gets very busy at peak hours so I try to avoid going during peak hours. Would recommend.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place with awesome people! If you want a positive Crossfit experience, this is where you go

Positive experience: It was around the corner from where the GPS said I'd reached my destination

Fantastic experience: Bulldog Bootcamp & Crossfit is off the chain. I took this challenge because I had trained and ran the Chicago marathon in 2016. My out come was good I finished. But I hurt my leg and was instructed to stay off it for six months. Well a year had passed and I was still having some pain so I decided that I need to do something to get back in shape. Being the tough cookie that I am I decided to take the six week crossfit challenge to get me back in shape and working out. I must say that it is truly a challenge but they provide you will everything you need to succeed. You get a meal plan, a coach and a gym full of people encouraging you and want to see you win. Wendy is on top of her game. She make sure you are aware of where you at and what you need to do weekly. I had my finial weigh-in this pass Saturday April 28th. I started at 183.6 and I ended at 162.6. 21 pounds down and I am excited about it. But one thing is for sure I could not have done it this fast, this healthy without Bulldog Bootcamp & Crossfit and its whole crew. Thanks Wendy, Mel and the whole crew for pushing me and believing in me. More then anything Not allowing me to quit or give up. Blessing.

Fantastic experience: The staff is great! They have groups workouts with multiple coaches to make sure everyone is doing the exercises correctly. They assist with modifications for those that are new to the gym and new to exercising (or just haven't in a while). I love the great workouts they have. Lots of variety. Edit 3/16/18 Took the 6 week challenge. They provided me with a nutrition plan in addition to the fitness regemin. I have made great strides in the both health and fitness with Bulldog and couldn't be happier. It was the best decision I have made in a long time. I went from constantly feeling like garbage, tired and irritable all the time to feeling better, healthier and happier. I'm sleeping better and have made some healthier habits along the way. They gave me the tools I needed to jump start myself in the right direction. I am well on my way to my end game goals. Edit 3/17/18 Lost over 10 lbs and over 7% body fat. This stuff works and I highly recommend Bulldog Bootcamp & Crossfit!

Fantastic experience: Did a drop in. Great coaches and equipment.

Fantastic experience: Great coaching staff! Love that the routine switches up daily so you don't get bored or plateau.

Fantastic experience: Awesome program. Supportive and motivating trainers. Love this place!!

Fantastic experience: Awsome place

Positive experience: Don't know anything about this place it's close to one of my drop off spots

Negative experience: Gym is cold, no locker rooms, and membership prices are outrageous! This gym is for people training or body builders, not the average gym goer.

Fantastic experience: Amazing place! I'm a gymnast and only have I think 4 more years till I'm Ble to compete in the games, but I love this place! I also like that they let children join in with their parents sometimes.

Negative experience: BE CAREFUL GROUPONERS::I was impressed by the orientation class. I left bragging to all my friends how comfortable I was with the environment and the instructor. The instructor was a girl with the last name Debias. She is the office manager. She made everyone feel welcomed and encouraged. I went to my first real class and the story was completely different. It was obvious I was new, I am not thin if that was the first clue! But yet I was not approached by anyone. I spotted the girl, Debias, and approached her, but she was not the instructor , she was there to work out. She was incredibly friendly though! Anyways, she ended up showing me who the instructor was. I will cut to the point....I felt out of place, the instructor, Major, had no personality. He did not introduce himself, or ask me for my name. He seemed annoyed to have to make a customized workout for me. And after my work out I stood near him not knowing what to do next. After about 10 minutes I asked what to do and he said I could go home. Had I not asked him I would have continued to stand around looking like an idiot. So I worked out for a total of about 18 minutes, and no one said good bye to me or gave me any suggestions. *I was really hoping to become a regular member at this club since its 3 minutes from my home and I am dedicated to becoming fit. However, I have no motivation to go back to feeling out of place and all alone. It also surprises me that they don't do any follow ups. If I managed a place like this and saw that I have a customer that paid for a month and didn't return after their first visit, I would definitely shoot them an email or call them to encourage them to return or find out why they haven't. * my last disappointment- when I first contacted the 800 number the owner told me the student discount was about 102 a month with no commitment needed. When I asked the Manager I was informed that its 102 a month with a year commitment. :( I would recommend this place to those who have already been doing crossfit. But I do not recommend it to someone who's at all out of shape. You will feel out of place and lonely. :(
