CFB Athletic Club: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I absolutely could not be happier that I joined this gym! The facility is immaculate and well maintained, plenty of equipment, space and extra areas to do personal workouts even while classes are occurring. The coaches and owners are extremely welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable as are the other athletes. I find it inspiring to see athletes working out at a very advanced competitive level side by side with others who are trying the sport for the first time. For the first time in a long time I feel hopeful and excited to meet my fitness goals.
Thank you so much for taking the time, Stephanie! We can't wait to watch you crush your goals!!
Fantastic experience: CFB is the perfect place to kickstart your fitness journey! The coaches are incredibly supportive, friendly, and always approachable. The gym has a welcoming, judgment-free atmosphere that makes every workout super fun. I'm absolutely loving my first steps into the world of CrossFit! ❤️
Erika, thank you SO much! You are doing amazing and we are so grateful you are a part of our gym.
Fantastic experience: A welcoming place, with no pressure, fantastic coaches that care about their athletes and their gym.
Thank you for the review, Clayton! So happy you are a part of CFB.
Fantastic experience: Estou amando treinar no Crossfit CFB Athletic o Crossfit mudou minha vida melhor escolha que fiz
Thank you so much D! We are so happy to have you here.
Fantastic experience: This place is extraordinary. Before the pandemic I went there regularly years ago and was in pretty good shape and worked with a trainer. Cross Fit has a reputation for young muscle bound men, which is not completely wrong, but this place welcomes old and young (I am in my 70s) and men and women of all ages. It is clean, airy and well run. After looking at other gyms I decided to return to CFB and am glad I did and am trying to rebuild my strength, with some results already after only three weeks.
Eric, you're the best. Thank you so much for taking the time. It's a pleasure having you here.
Fantastic experience: Has assumed that Crossfit Bethel would be a "ramped up" place to work out but have found it amazingly supportive of out-of-shape persons like myself. The personal attention, checking in on a frequent basis, the kindness and support are exceptional and far beyond expectations. The nicest, kindest and most personable trainers one can imagine. A great experience for all persons!
John, thank you so much for the kind review. We are so happy to have you here with us!
Fantastic experience: I thought the world was ending when my gym announced it was closing. I asked around, I went to several other gyms in the area and they were all really good, but when I went to CrossFit Bethel I found my new gym. It's a community led by a owner who is committed to the gym, the people and me, sounds crazy I know! I couldn't believe how much time and attention a gym owner put in the members, the coaches. On top of that - the gym is spotless every morning, every day. I have found my new home, you should come and check it out, I'll see you at the 5:30 class!
Dan, thank you so much for the kind review and for taking the time. We are so lucky to have members like you.
Fantastic experience: Great gym, great people, and they really care about you achieving your goals. So happy I joined!
Thank you so much for the great review, Caitlin. So happy you and Jeff are part of the CFB family.
Fantastic experience: I initially didn’t realize CFB Athletic Club was a CrossFit gym, and my preconceptions about CrossFit's intensity almost deterred me. I’m so glad I gave it a shot! The atmosphere is friendly, supportive, and adaptable to all fitness levels - all of whom are members there. Each workout offers the choice between strength-based (more weightlifting) and fitness-based (a mix of cardio and strength) exercises, so you can go with what suits you best that day. The coaches demonstrate each movement, provide modifications, and genuinely care about your progress. If you’re hesitant about CrossFit, I encourage you to try this gym—it’s welcoming, community-focused, and a great place to work out!
Laura!! You're the best. Thank you so much for the awesome review. We are so happy to have you!!
Fantastic experience: Totally NEW to CrossFit, but I’m definitely hooked! I’ve been a runner forever; but I am really embracing the benefits of cross training for overall fitness. Love the staff and the workouts… Great way to start the day!
Thank you so much, DEB! You are the best! Thanks for taking the time.
Fantastic experience: Great place. I just started about a month ago and I love it. They give you the freedom to work at your own pace, but they keep you nicely motivated to really work hard. Highly recommend this place.
Marc! You're the man. Thank you for the great review!!
Fantastic experience: I've been at the gym for two weeks, it's my first time at CrossFit and for me it was a little scary, but from the first contact with the staff I was very well received and guided. The coaches are excellent, always with great care and attention to ensure that I am doing the movements correctly. The gym is very well equipped and always clean. I definitely loved it.
Thank you so much Juliana! We are so happy you are part of the CFB fam!
Fantastic experience: I’ve just been going for a month or so, but I already love it. The coaches are excellent; they watch over you to make sure you are progressing towards your goal. If you are thinking about a great gym to go this is the best one.
Fantastic experience: I'm thrilled to find CFB Athletic Club. I just started a few weeks ago but I am enjoying working with the staff at CFB and the classes. Everyone in the classes are very helpful and friendly. Its a good solid workout. The gym is clean and equipment is excellent. I found my new workout home. I am looking forward to getting into great shape.
Christine, you are the BEST! We are so happy you are apart of the CFB family and can't wait to see you crush your goals.
Fantastic experience: I am a N00B but have been warmly welcomed by everyone I have come across at this gym thus far (3 classes down BAYBEE)! Liam and Neil are great at explaining everything and breaking it down for you. This is the only cross-fit gym I have ever gone to so I cannot compare but I can't imagine a better group of people. I love that as a newcomer you are signed up to do one-on-one sessions to make sure you learn the lingo and proper forms for all the movements because they want you to succeed, not go too heavy too fast and hurt yourself. I am excited to see where my fitness journey goes from here with my new fam at CFB!
Fantastic experience: If you are looking to improve your fitness, overall health, or even remotely considering trying CrossFit - look no further. This gym IS the friendly gym. Fitness is a very serious part of my life for a variety of reasons to include the improvement of my mental health and to protect my physical longevity. Liam, Neil, Ali, and every single member of this facility are not only welcoming but incredibly helpful and supportive. You won’t regret coming in.
Courtney, thank you so much for taking the time! You are the best and we love having you! THANK YOU!
Fantastic experience: Awesome atmosphere, everybody is super friendly, from the coaches to the regulars. Classes are smaller, so the coaches know everyone by name. None of the showboating or judgement you get from chain gyms. Just people who want to enjoy a good workout.
Andrew, thank you so much my friend! I appreciate YOU!
Fantastic experience: I lost fitness during the pandemic. I lost strength and confidence too. I decided it was time to get fit, get strong and feel better. I’m just starting but I already know I’m in the right place. The coaches have been so incredibly supportive and encouraging, and their positive energy truly makes the gym a welcoming place. The class schedule is flexible, if my knee injury gets in the way of a certain exercise, there’s always an alternative, and I feel like I can finally get into a workout routine again. Thanks CFB!
Caryn, you're the best! Thank you so much for taking the time!
Fantastic experience: A friendly environment where coaches are very friendly and will make us feel comfortable with every exercise and workouts.
Jahnavi ! Thank you so much for being a part of CFB!!
Fantastic experience: I have been to a number of CrossFit boxes over the years, and can attest that this is one of the best run ones I have seen. Liam and his team keep the place clean, warm and welcoming, and make sure to pay plenty of attention to each member. Very impressed.
Thank you Doc! You are the best. Thank you for your time and kind words.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit Bethel is such an amazing gym. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The atmosphere is warm and inviting. The personalized service and proactive reach out by staff is amazing. I absolutely love it there!
Lori! THANK YOU! We love having you here! Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: As someone who has ZERO experience in the gym, it was intimidating to reach out for some help. I have just started at CrossFit Bethel, and they have remodeled my perspective on going to the gym as a place that is safe and encouraging. Jimmy is truly a passionate coach and has worked with me one-on-one to ensure I feel comfortable with the equipment and new exercises. All the coaches are phenomenal and definitely represent the brand of "a friendly gym". I look forward to seeing how I grow physically and mentally in this gym.
Theresa! Thank you for taking the time! We really appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: By far the best workouts I've ever experienced. The energy and motivation of the coaches, a different and challenging workout every day. The supportive members, you definitely feel like a member of the family from the minute you walk in the gym door.
Thank you SO much D! - For taking the time and being awesome! THANK YOU!!
Fantastic experience: Best athletic club ever you can start at any level and see results quickly
ALEX, thank you so much sir! Keep crushing it. I appreciate your support and hard work!
Fantastic experience: I joined CFB several 8 months ago. I've always struggled with maintaining a consistent workout routine. I've joined several Gyms over the years and have never been able to maintain a solid routine. The schedule, workout programs, atmosphere and coaches have all been sources of motivation to maintain a consistent routine. If you're looking for a great Gym that offers great results I'd highly recommend CFB.
Hey Tyler! Thank you so much for the kind review!!!
Fantastic experience: Great workouts, positive and motivating staff members, and an awesome uplifting atmosphere :)
Victor! Thank you so much!! You are the best. Cant wait until you are back in the gym!
Fantastic experience: Liam and everyone at CrossFit Bethel have helped me change my life. Ive always felt welcome in the CFB gym. The coaches are more than willing to help. They truly deserve their moniker of "the friendly gym"
Love you man! Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: What a club ! owner coaches are amazing definitely a family atmosphere and they make you feel welcomed.
Fantastic experience: I joined CFB several months ago, not without some trepidation given my age and not exactly being in peak, fitness condition. I'm pleased to report I've found a great program with committed trainers and a super community. I strongly recommend CrossFit Bethel. If you've been tempted to try CrossFit, drop by and spend some time with Liam or Jimmy. You'll be glad you did. Best of luck on your health and fitness journey.
Steve, thank you for taking the time to review the gym. You are the best! Thank you for your support Sir
Fantastic experience: We are now eclipsing our five (5) year anniversary, a great decision for us seniors. Our health is great at our age(s) as seen in our mindset, bloodwork, bone density, weight and physical strength. We feel good, ok maybe sore on occasion, but that is all part of exercise. We have moved from an hour twice a week in the first year to five days a week for the past 18 months. The coaches encourage us to ‘scale’ the workouts as needed, even as we do the ‘fitness’ workout of the day. If the workout is too difficult that day (maybe heat or humidity is excessive) there is always the ‘senior discount’, we just ratchet down the exercise routine numbers. The bottom line is that our lifestyle is far better today than just a few short years ago, all because we started this exercise routine. And CFB isn’t just any gym, here the coaches are watching you, making sure you are doing the workout correctly. Form is vitally important not the number of reps or the amount of weight you are working with. There is no reason to get hurt while exercising especially for a senior. Coach rotation is just one of the many benefits of the club. Class size, room size, air circulation and 'music to exercise by' all combine to make us feel as safe as we can in the current environment. If you are in my cohort, you really do need to use weights and exercise on a regular basis, just taking a daily walk isn't sufficient. Even when traveling, one can just pull up the CFB app and see what the workout of the day is and modify accordingly. Whether you are a senior or not, exercise is great for the body, the mind and the soul, highly recommended. I suggest you join us sooner rather than later.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit Bethel changed my life! I have been to other CF gyms in the area and not one comes close to CFB. The coaches are absolutely amazing and the community is so supportive. I was a college athlete and I feared getting out of shape after I graduated.... but I have never felt so strong & healthy!!! Walking through the door for the first time is the hardest part, but I guarantee you will be welcomed and loved the moment you do!
Fantastic experience: I was always intimidated by gyms and weights, but I knew that this was what I was needing. CFB coaches and members made feel welcome and safe. They also woke up my inner beast and I couldn’t be more grateful. I absolutely love CFB and what it is doing for me physically and mentally. A ginormous thank you to the greatest coaches who encourage and inspire me every day❤️
D! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You already know it, but you are awesome. I appreciate you.
Fantastic experience: Professional, clean, friendly, patient staff and members all. Fun-No gymtimidation. Able to meet you at your fitness level and help you establish and meet and expand your health goals further. Whether you want to loose wt, achieve strength, gain confidence or pass your career related physical-they are on your side! Also from time to time you get quality time with the CFB fur family, you have to smile when you see puppers :). Dogs only like cool people.
Laura, thank you so much for taking the time. You are awesome! Keep rolling! You are doing so well! Thank you for being a part of the community!
Fantastic experience: As a member of CrossFit Bethel for over 2.5 years, I have found every coach to be very supportive and knowledgeable. There is no ego in the gym and no pressure to do more than what you are comfortably doing. All the workouts are scalable. CrossFit Bethel is truly a friendly gym.
STEVE, love you man (Liam). Thank you so much for taking the time. You make this the friendly gym. Without you, we would be half as friendly.
Fantastic experience: CFB has created a very inclusive community. They're very welcoming for people of all skill levels and their coaching and programming aligns exactly with the idea that anyone and everyone can be there.
Ben! Thank you so much my friend. We are really glad to have you and thank you for taking the time
Fantastic experience: LOVE CFB! I'm new here and the coaches are patient , knowledgeable, professional and so attentive! I'm also really impressed with how much they prioritize safety! I was very concerned about it given the "CrossFit Reputation", they are always watching and correcting form when necessary and they can even "scale" the workout for your level of fitness!! The gym is spotless, tons of classes to choose from and everyone is so friendly! It's a whole vibe and I'm here for it! HIGHLY recommend!
THANK YOU THANK YOU! I appreciate you taking the time :)
Fantastic experience: Before I started at CFB, I had two fears: 1. That I would have no idea how to do any of the workouts and maybe couldn’t do them at all and 2. That I wouldn’t fit in with all the strong people. I can honestly say I shouldn’t have been concerned at all and I LOVE this gym. The instructors take the time every class to demonstrate, correct form, and show modifications. I never feel lost and am always encouraged by them even when I’m struggling. Jimmy, Liam, Michelle, Neal, and Eric are incredible! Also, the community is so friendly! No egos, just people working hard and cheering each other on. There are all levels of fitness present so everyone fits in. The workouts are SO hard but SO rewarding and I always feel like a beast when time is up. Thank you CFB!
Thank you so much for the kind words. You are awesome!!!!! We are so glad you are here. Keep up the great work. Thank you thank you!
Fantastic experience: Outstanding gym, ownership, staff, and facilities. Oh, and the CFB community is unlike any other gym I’ve experienced. Feels more like a team or a workout family. I’ve been working out for over 30 years — in my 50s now! - and this community builds you up with physical strength and so much more.
Dennis! Thank you so much my friend. You are the greatest - thank you for taking the time. I appreciate all that you have done for us! Keep rolling strong, sir.
Fantastic experience: Great place with relatable staff and non-ego members. For a guy with 0% mussel, they worked with me and made me feel comfortable. It wasn’t about showing off, it is about getting in shape. They were able to help me modify the moves until I was able to attain the goal. WARNING: if you come here, you will experience sensations of cardio and muscular exercise. This will quickly be followed by a head to toe sensation of “I can’t believe I did that!”
Fantastic experience: Update: I've been at CFB for almost 2 years now and I am still loving it. The coaches are all wonderful and some how make that exercise thing fun. Then the CFB family of members is the best. Everyone is so friendly and supportive. All this and you get the benefit of getting healthy and in shape. Thank you Liam, his crew and the CFB family!!! Being in my later 50's I was apprehensive about joining. Meeting Liam convinced me to give it a try. I am loving it. They offer multiple class times to fit my crazy schedule. The coaches guide you through the class with modifications and encouragement. I get emails with information and check-in's to see how I'm doing. Everyone says hello, it truly is the Friendly Gym. CrossFit Bethel has a workout for everyone, makes you feel welcome and the staff supports you on your journey.
Kathy, you're awesome. Thank you so much for the review and taking the time! Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: This is the gym. The trainers here are extremely knowledgeable & provide excellent coaching. The members are very welcoming and friendly. The classes provide the right balance of strength training and conditioning. Their personal training is the best in the area. My son is a college athlete and had sessions to get him ready for his freshman season. My husband & I also took PT to help us reach some of our goals. My daughter enjoys the teen classes. Its an all around great gym to belong to.
Sandi! THANK YOU! So happy you and your family are here - it means a lot!!!
Fantastic experience: I recently moved to Bethel and since having my second kid a year ago I struggled to get back into a fitness routine. I was intimidated about joining Crossfit but Liam made me feel comfortable from the second I walked in the gym. I joined about 6 weeks ago and feel better than I ever have! All of the coaches are amazing, welcoming, motivating and supportive. If you are intimidated at the thought of joining Crossfit you definitely have nothing to worry about in Bethel, there are many different levels of athletes and fitness experience and they really are the "Friendly Gym" they say they are. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to get back into fitness or up their fitness to the next level.
Addie! Thank you so much! Super happy you are a part of this. Thanks for taking the time for this thoughtful review. Truly, thank you!
Fantastic experience: WARNING: Membership at CFB may lead to a healthy addiction to fitness, an abundance of pride and sense of accomplishment. CFB is not just a place to throw weights around, it is a welcoming, judgement-free and friendly community where you will find people from all walks of life striving to be their best. The dedicated coaches at CrossFit Bethel give it their all to make classes inclusive and welcoming, provide personal fitness plans and give insight into nutrition while actually making you want to be there. I never considered myself a serious athlete or really the “gym type” and openly admitted to not even knowing why I was there when I first walked through the door. Two years later I am in the best shape I’ve ever been in and I still look forward to every class.
Sara, You are the best! Thank you so much for taking the time! Your results have been inspiring and your journey has been amazing to watch! Keep inspiring! Keep killing it!
Fantastic experience: Can't say enough good things about Crossfit Bethel Athletic, Liam, and his staff. My wife and I have been Crossfit members at another gym for the last few years and recently decided to switch to this box. We appreciate the professionalism, friendliness, and excellent coaching we receive here. Their expertise goes beyond Crossfit. The coaches offer great everyday and personal training and nutritional advice. This is not the place where the trainers are just going through the motions, they truly care about your success and development; which is a rare find. Great establishment, don't hesitate to come in & try out a class.
Brian, thank you so much. We are very grateful to have you and S at the gym!
Fantastic experience: Truly the friendly gym. From day 1 the Coaches and Members made me feel at home following the closure of my previous gym (coVid). The Coaches really know their trade and are able to scale movements or the workout around the individual based on ability or to work around an injury. You will be hard pressed to find a better environment or staff to work on you health and fitness.
Kevin, thank you so much for taking the time! I'm so happy you are with us. Keep killing it and again, THANK YOU!
Fantastic experience: What I found at CrossFit Bethel is perfect for me, and It’s absolutely for everyone. Especially for those people who have never worked out before like me. :))
Lory, you are the best! Thank you so much for taking the time. You are awesome - FIVE STARS BACK AT YOU! :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic facility. Owner and coaches are very detail oriented and helpful with form. I've made tremendous progress over the past few weeks thanks to them. The community is super friendly and supportive and i'll never look back! Join immediately.
Ryan, you are the man! Thank you so much for being the great guy you are! Very glad you are a part of this whole thang. Thank you for taking the time!
Fantastic experience: The whole team at CFB is amazing! Extremely dedicated to your fitness and wellness goals!
My man, thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: This place is great, everyone is so nice, everyone is very supportive and super inclusive. I would recommend Liam and his team any day! The pups are super cute also!
Thank you so much for the kind words! You are awesome! :)
Fantastic experience: If your in doubt just walk in the door and try it. That’s exactly what I did and it was such a positive environment! Liam and the other coaches were a step above what I would expect of a gym. Everyone was great, the coaches and the other members made it a easy place to go. I own a seasonal business (swimming pools) so I had a month to try CrossFit Bethel before my work started up and I can tell you I’ll be joining up this coming November when we start to calm down! They care about the members with many emails, texts and conversations in the gym so again, if your somewhat interested, just walk in and give it a try. You’ll thank yourself!
Sean, thank you so much for taking the time! You are the best. Glad to have you here
Fantastic experience: I have been a CrossFit athlete for eight years. In that time I have visited many CrossFit affiliates. What I have come to appreciate about CFB most in the month I have been visiting has been the attention the different coaches have paid to my progress and goals. As an older athlete, I enjoy both the strength and retcon components to the daily work outs. The willingness of the coaches to work with me to help me continue to improve. The cleanliness and brightness of the gym is refreshing and makes the experience fun. Finally, while the workouts are intense, the coaches are not. They have shown genuine care and above all, friendliness; Liam and his team are open, friendly, playful, and professional. Crossfit Bethel has been a great experience.
Rob, thank you so much for the kind review! I really appreciate the time and you being here. Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: Love this gym! The owner is one of the friendliest guys around and his coaches follow suit. I've been really impressed by how attentive everyone is- they check in via text to see how you're doing. How nice is that? Every fitness level is represented here so no matter your age or ability you'll feel comfortable. Check them out!
Jaimie! You are also the best! Thank you so much
Fantastic experience: Liam, Jimmy, and Eric are super encouraging and extremely down to earth. As someone working in the fitness industry, it is amazing to have coaches who are authentic, encouraging, with attention to detail. All of them have been so accommodating helping me work around my pre-existing shoulder and neck issues. The environment of this gym, the coaches, and clients is welcoming and very friendly! If you are intimidated to try CrossFit, this is the place to experience the good it was meant to be-
You're the bomb. Thank you for taking the time and being a part of this place - we love you guys!
Fantastic experience: Signing up for CFB was one of the best decisions of my life. Owner and his fiance are superb people. All coaches are phenomenal. They will help you with anything you need, always willing to teach you something 100 times without question. I've become much stronger going here, and the community is second to none. If you're on the fence like I was when I first started, just give it a shot! You won't regret it.
Doug, thank you for taking the time, man! We love having you here. I appreciate the kind words, Diesel!!!
Fantastic experience: I found my place ! Love it !
Thank you ANA! Cant wait to see you!
Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great people, great space and great class times
You're the bestest! Thank you so much Frank the Tank
Fantastic experience: Haven’t touched a weight in years and was looking for something that offered comraderie and competition. This is the place. Great coaching and support even thru the workouts. For a newbie like me I would definitely recommend CrossFit Bethel and Liam to anyone!!
Dave, thank you so much! I am excited you are enjoying it. Thank you! Keep it up.
Fantastic experience: The CrossFit Bethel (CFB) community changed my life. I joined three and a half years ago, after virtually 25 years of sedentary lifestyle with no workouts. And I never thought I will be craving going to the gym every day. I never imagined I can lift, period. I never knew I can become as strong, mobile and flexible as I am today. The program brings great results, it is doable and most of all - sustainable for a long term. The programming, guidance and coaching are superb at CrossFit Bethel. CrossFit Bethel is constantly improving in all possible areas based on the members' needs and their input. CrossFit Bethel has a great family-like atmosphere of open-heart support, encouragement. It is a true "no judgement zone" and a Friendly Gym.
Galina! Thank you so much!!
Fantastic experience: At 53 I was really looking to up the intensity level of my workouts and that’s exactly what I got when I joined CFB. On top of that I was also getting expert instruction on lifts that were entirely new to me as well as some that I’ve been doing for years. I also quickly became aware of how important flexibility is as a component of fitness and Coaches Don and Liam have really gone over and above to help me. That speaks volumes about the people and business overall!! I have been a member at other gyms but honestly felt like after I signed my contract the employees no longer had to work for my business. I don’t get that feeling at CFB. All of the coaches and members are extremely approachable and great people. I have made lifelong friends and am incredibly comfortable in the environment that Liam and his Team have created and nurtured. I highly recommend this gym and look forward to checking off many more fitness goals for years to come!!!
Jim, we really appreciate your review and the kind words. Thank you so much for taking the time! It means a lot.
Fantastic experience: I feel stronger physically and mentally since I joined CrossFit Bethel. The coaches are all excellent and they attract a great group of people of all ages and levels. There’s never any judgment. I always feel safe and encouraged but never pushed beyond where I’m comfortable. The community, camaraderie and support that I’ve felt since I joined gives me the drive to keep coming.
You are the best Mary. Thank you so much for this great review!
Fantastic experience: I’ve tried a lot of gyms in the area, CFB is the only one that stuck!! As a health fitness professional myself I was mainly looking for a community, but also a strong coaching staff who knew what they were doing. Crossfit Bethel EXCEEDED my expectations two-fold. A supportive, encouraging community with an awesome coaching staff, you can’t get much better than that!!
Really appreciate the kind words Jennie! Thank you thank you
Fantastic experience: Best CrossFit gym in the east coast. They call it the Fanily gym . Owner Liam Fay and his great Coaches are always willing to help their members strive to be the best that they can be. The gym is very clean and big. Would highly recommend anyone to Join this great gym
Thank you so much Jansey!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out with Crossfit Bethel since I was 12, this gym is a true second home for me. I’ve been able to boost my numbers from squatting only 135, to being able to hit 285 for my PR.The friendships you build is priceless and you won’t find it anywhere else. These people want to see you kill it every time you work out, they will never put you down for what you do as long as you’re true to who you are. Family is very key to this community and it shows day in and day out. Highly recommend coming in and put work in.
My man! Thank you
Fantastic experience: Everything about CrossFit Bethel is absolutely amazing… the coaches, the members, the workouts and of course, the dogs!!! I was sooo nervous to step through the door the first time but I was welcomed with open arms and made to feel comfortable and competent. The coaches and members are all so encouraging and supportive - whether you are crazy strong and athletic, or modifying the exercises to fit your abilities, or just beginning your fitness journey, everyone is there to cheer you on and to celebrate your accomplishments. It’s truly called The Friendly Gym for a reason.
You are the bomb Tricia! Thank you so much!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member for about two months now, and I can say that joining CFB was one of the best decisions I've made for my health. Many people think of CrossFit as an intimidating fitness regimen filled with heavy lifts and complex movements -- it can be! But, with the help of supportive, knowledgeable coaches, and the encouragement of the most upbeat, friendly members of any gym I've been around, I've learned how perform exercises safely and scaled to ability. The experience has been nothing but positive -- I've learned more about myself and what I'm actually capable of achieving with a good dose of encouragement, and realized the only thing stopping me from achieving more in the past ... was me. Working out solo can get stale and mundane. If you want to push yourself, and do so safely with great coaching, check out CFB. When you sign-up with CFB, you're not just joining a gym, you're joining a community of people who genuinely want to see you--and each other--achieve new milestones.
James, thank you so much! It has been an absolute pleasure having you in our community! You are the man! Thank you
Fantastic experience: What is there NOT to love about CFB?? The coaches are uber smart, well trained and committed to your success , and the gym members are inspiring, fun and super friendly! The workouts are always topnotch - leaving me breathless and wanting more! :-).
Rekha! Thank you thank you. We really appreciate it!
Fantastic experience: Crossfit Bethel is the best thing I ever signed up for. I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in!! The coaches are amazing and everyone is very supportive. CFB is more than a gym, its a great community of people and I’m so glad I’m part of it.
You’re the bomb! Thank you Carol!
Fantastic experience: Love the vibe at CFB. Great place for getting back into a healthy regime. Lots of optimism and upbeat attitudes from the coaches and many of the long time members, too. I needed a gentle nudge in the right direction and here I got it. Programmed for all levels of capability and requirement. Great gym! Thank you and keep it up, CFB.
Thanks Maggie! Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: The staff there is great and very helpful and accommodating and will work with you to meet your fitness goals. The owner is always looking for ways to evolve the gym for more than just CrossFit. Crossfiters workout along side of people who are there just to get into shape in the same class - with modified routines (A high intensity CrossFit routine or the lower intensity "health" routine). There is definitely a no stress environment there. A Big plus is the "No contact" membership. You pay month-to-month, so if for some reason you can not make it for a few months, let them know ahead of time and they won't charge you lol. So if you are look for an gym to train for you next Bonefrog race or just want to get toned, check this place out!
Thank you my man! You are the dude! Thank you for being a part of us!
Fantastic experience: CFB is where I boost up my energy and confidence. This place is competitive yet the most friendliest. It’s a community where people come to workout and end up finding themselves staying more than just a workout. Coaches are great. They understand your weaknesses and work with you to overcome them. When you think you’re at your max they challenge you and damn sure, they’re right. I recommend this place to anybody who wants to challenge themselves.
Thank you Doogy. You’re the best! I appreciate your kind words and time!
Fantastic experience: I joined CT Roller Derby as a rookie this September and it was highly recommended to cross train which is how I found CrossFit Bethel. Despite seeing 2 gyms in the town I live in, it was the fact that CFB calls themselves the "friendly gym" that got me interested. It can be really intimidating to join a gym if you aren't a "fit" person or are uncomfortable using equipment and find yourself wasting money to run on a treadmill and do nothing else. Also, there aren't any contracts that you get locked into! My endurance during derby practice has gotten so much better and everyone has been extremely supportive. I highly recommend joining CFB, it's worth it!!!!! Did I mention there are dogs!?!?! Best. Gym. Ever.
Julie! Thank you so much. You are the best - keep up the great work!!!
Fantastic experience: Excellent coaching, very fun and welcoming community, and wods are always on point!!!

Isa! Thank you thank you! I really appreciate your time and kind words!
Fantastic experience: CFB welcomed me with open arms when I was out of my comfort zone and extremely nervous. The owner Liam took time to sit and talk with me in depth to really get to know me and my personal goals easing my nerves. My first training session was great with their coach Donny and made me feel like there was hope for my future with CrossFit. He even wore a matching headband with me to make me feel comfortable and kind of silly! :) I strongly recommend CFB! If they can help break down my walls to succeed, they can do it with anybody!
Hurricane! Thank you so much for the kind words!

Fantastic experience: I've been at CrossFit Bethel two years and its made such a difference in my overall fitness. I thought I was in shape before - running multiple marathons - but I was not! What I've learned with CrossFit and especially the community at CFB has been invaluable. Just try it - you'll love it too!
thank you Allison! You da best!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been to a few Crossfit gyms in the area and this one by far is the most accepting and most fun. They create a great atmosphere to learn and workout in. They really truly care about their members.
Thank you so much Sgt!

Fantastic experience: Liam and all the coaches are amazing. All classes can be done by beginners or seasoned cross fitters. Im a beginner for sure and never feel intimidated by the other athletes. Such a family atmosphere too. If I could give them 50 stars I would! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you so much Victoria!!
Fantastic experience: Tremendous results from a great coaching staff and super supportive member base. You get out what you put in of course. Plenty of class options to pick from and an almost all day open gym policy. Frequently the owner (Liam) and the coaches go above and beyond to make members feel welcome and become better athletes. Highly Recommend you drop in and check it out.
Thank you Chris for both your time and kind words. You are the best!
Fantastic experience: The coaches are one of the best people you will even encounter! They are caring and will work with you and any of your injuries! They really care for their people and the community! Best gym around!
You da bomb Reba! Thank you!
Fantastic experience: CFB in all honesty has helped me become strong in so many more ways than just physical. These are a group of coaches who push you to believe in yourself. To build self esteem, confidence and self worth. They are the kindest most accepting people I have ever found myself around. This is the friendly gym and in the short time I have been there I have become so comfortable. Best place ever.
Thank you Marcelle! So happy you are a part of CFB! You rock
Fantastic experience: Getting in shape with exceptional coaches and friendly fun atmosphere is what I love about CFB.. If You put in the work and dedication the results are going to happen.
Thank you Gina!!
Fantastic experience: Never had more fun or been around a more supportive group of people then at CFB. The dog is super cute too.
Fantastic experience: By far the best part of my day! No matter what class I go to I feel welcomed by everyone. The coaches are super warm and encouraging. It’s a place where I go to for great physical gains and also friendship gains.
Thank you Tori!!! So glad you a part of us!
Fantastic experience: They call themselves the “friendly” gym but it’s more like a “family” gym. Love everyone who works and works out there. Great people who care about what you do and how you do it.
Thank you Jen!
Fantastic experience: Crossfit Bethel is the BEST! Awesome coaches, supportive environment, and great workouts with lots of options to fit every fitness level. Walking in the first time is the hardest part, but it is very worth it. I highly recommend CFB to anyone!
Fantastic experience: I was nervous about getting injured when I joined CFB because of the bad reputation Cross Fit has, in general. CFB is different and has exceeded my expectations. I appreciate the time and effort the coaches put into the workouts and the technique for each move. They're very careful to guide everyone based on each person's ability. As if that isn't motivation enough, I've found the members to be just as welcoming and motivating. I love CFB and the people in it!
Thanks for the kind words Laura!
Fantastic experience: Great place! The coaches are awesome and the workouts are highly effective!
Fantastic experience: Finally found a place close to home, in and out in 30 minutes with a workout that incorporates both cardio and strength training. Bootcamp. Not to mention the fact that the instructors are FANTASTIC. What are you waiting for? Come join.
Fantastic experience: Walking into Crossfit Bethel I immediately felt welcomed and motivated by the coaches and people around me. Definitely way more than just a gym. Without the strategic workouts made by our coaches I don't think I would be where I am today with my health and fitness!
Fantastic experience: I have been a member of CrossFit Bethel since it opened. I had been a member at numerous gyms in the area but none can compare to this one. I am confident I have found the gym where I can reach all of my fitness needs. Liam and Josh have created an atmosphere in which members of all ability levels, push themselves and each other to reach new and unexpected levels of success. A difficult workout quickly becomes a group effort, rather than a individual workout. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, professional and truly care about your progress and safety.
