CrossFit® Chapel Hill: Opinions

Fantastic experience: Crossfit gyms (or "boxes" as they are called) these days are proliferating like mad. Justifiably so, as doing Crossfit is a fantastic way to get yourself into the best shape of your life. What differentiates the various gyms is less the fancy environment (a Crossfit "box" is generally pretty minimalist), or high tech equipment, but the quality of the instruction. Having been to quite a few Crossfit gyms, Crossfit Chapel Hill has the best instruction by a long shot. The combination of very experienced instructors and their integration of "Zfit" techniques is a great blend. You can get hurt in Crossfit if you don't do it right, and CFCH does a great job of making sure that doesn't happen. If you're new to Crossfit, this is the place to start. If you're experienced, you'll probably learn something new. No matter what, it's a great community. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Fantastic experience: Four years ago, I started coming to CFCH as a beginner and I immediately felt welcomed and comfortable. Morgan and Michael have created an atmosphere that encourages everyone no matter their skill level. All of the coaches are approachable, enthusiastic and knowledgeable and celebrate everyone’s successes. If you are looking for a gym that has a fantastic community that supports your wellness goals, here it is!
Fantastic experience: Great gym and community. Coaches are always active in the classes and teaching. No need to try anywhere else.
Fantastic experience: Awesome community! CFCH has met my fitness needs through many personal iterations - competitive athlete, pregnant athlete, postpartum athlete. The coaches are awesome at helping to meet individual needs while encouraging a community mindset.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit Chapel Hill welcomed me in from the first day. The workouts are great and the coaching staff is fun and phenomenal! I’ve been going just a couple times a week and really see a difference in how I feel and think it is great cross training for running.
Fantastic experience: CrossFit Chapel Hill is definitely more than a gym! The coaches and members have become a community of encouragers, inspirers, and advisors! I look forward to the workouts and have seen definite improvement in my strength, coordination, and endurance since joining last April! CrossFit Chapel Hill also played a huge role in my ability to run my first full marathon! I highly recommend CrossFit for first-time exercisers, experienced athletes, and those looking to cross-train! You won't regret it!
Fantastic experience: The programming at CrossFit Chapel Hill is amazing! Most workouts include a strength portion and a conditioning portion, so you're left feeling sufficiently gassed and ready to attack the day. The workouts also build on each other over a period of a few weeks, so if you're a regular member, you can see the progression. But even if you're dropping in, you're still going to get a solid workout in. I've been with CrossFit Chapel Hill for a little over 3 years now and so enjoy the community that I've developed. And that says a lot, because I'm usually at the 6am class half awake. I have grown from the instruction of all the coaches and really enjoyed the relationships that I've developed with them. The owners, Morgan and Mike, are so great and I'm thankful to call them friends.
Fantastic experience: Great folks. No judgment. Good coaches and a really hard workout. They also are the only place in town with a 9am class for after kids are dropped off!
Fantastic experience: Coming to college, I wanted to find a gym that compared to my home gym back in Greensboro. Morgan and the other coaches at CFCH welcomed me with open arms at this gym. This is the community that I want to go to before/after a long day of classes. The programming and coaching is top tier as I enjoy how they modify to fit your skills. I also enjoy the diversity in age I get to workout with!

Everyone was incredibly friendly and the coaches were helpful and welcoming. Definitely recommend this gym for anyone at any level in their CrossFit journey!
Fantastic experience: This is a really fun and adaptive gym. They give a great period of instruction if you are new to CrossFit for every class and they ensure that you can do the exercises properly while not wasting way too much time going through examples. The gym hosts a very cohesive and diverse community of patrons and engenders a great team-oriented atmosphere. I highly recommend this gym for anyone that is new to CrossFit or veterans. Great music too!
Fantastic experience: This is an amazing gym and a wonderful community to be a part of. CrossFit Chapel Hill has made me stronger, more mobile, more confident, and showed me that working out should be genuinely fun. Every day is dynamic and builds a type of strength you didn't even know you could build! People at the gym meet you with warmth and inclusivity - all the coaches and other crossfitters are genuinely happy you're there, and cheering you on the whole way.
Fantastic experience: Home gym is Crossfit Hogtown and dropped in while in town. The staff and members couldn't be friendlier. The gym was packed but they made room for me and the vibe was wonderful. If you need a place to drop in, this is the perfect choice! I was going for a squat weight/rep scheme I had never hit and one of the girls saw me setting up to video and even offered to help.
Fantastic experience: This is the first gym I’ve considered family rather than a place to grudge through something I knew I was supposed to do. The environment is an uplifting, supportive community that welcomes everyone with open arms. No matter where you are on the fitness scale you are guaranteed to get better with the pushing, pulling, and prodding of the awesome CFCH community.
Fantastic experience: Chapel Hill Crossfit has been a wonderful experience. They work individually with each person to help reach their personal goals. The staff is extremely friendly and the entire experience is like working out with family. I couldn't recommended more highly.

Fantastic experience: After a push from a friend and fellow crossfitter, I decided to jump back into Crossfit Chapel Hill after on and off again bootcamps and babies.

Fantastic experience: I was hesitant to join a crossfit gym because of the stereotypes surrounding it. However, after taking advantage of the free week here, it was obvious that this specific gym didn't suffer from some of the more negative ones I was worried about. Instead, I found a place full of people who were supportive, hard-working, and good at what they do. I can always feel challenged here, but I can also always feel supported if I need to take a break or slow down. Having gone to this gym for 6 months now, I feel like I am a part of a strong and happy community of people who share a lot of my ideas for what's important in a gym and in life in general. I'm very glad I tried this gym, and I feel lucky to get to keep going every week.
Fantastic experience: CFCH is the best! I have worked out at 3 other crossfit gyms over the last few years and this gym and its owners/coaches are the best quality and most fun by far. The programming is well thought out and you can feel and see significant improvements in your strength and abilities as you progress through the cycles. Everyone is supportive and the staff makes an effort to introduce everyone, make people feel welcome, and be inclusive with social events outside the gym; I find this to be one of the biggest things that sets this gym apart from other crossfits. Definitely recommend to anyone of any fitness level!

Fantastic experience: The test of any workout regime is...going and going is what you do when you workout at Crossfit Chapel Hill! Why? The mood lighting, artisan water and big tvs...no!

Try it, they are always encouraging folks to step into a session, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Chapel Hill differentiates itself through a unique combination of challenging workouts for experienced participants, judgment-free and appropriately scaled workouts for newcomers, an unbelievably friendly and patient staff, and a jovial and supportive community. Exercising went from being something I dreaded to my favorite part of the day thanks to the people at the CFCH gym. Joining the gym not only introduced me to a new diverse group of friends, but also gave me more confidence thanks to a healthier lifestyle. Now if only CFCH could help me stop eating so many burritos!
