CrossFit^® Grandview

Fantastic experience: Fantastic Gym! If you are a Crossfit competitor or novice (like me) this is the go-to place to train. As an ex-D1 collegiate athlete with a decade behind a desk, stepping into a crossfit gym could be intimidating. But with the Elements classes, extremely friendly trainers who take the time to explain everything from oly lifts to proper technique on sit-ups, I was made to feel welcome from day 1. There is no traditional gym attitude or superiority complexes. Everyone from the owners to the seasoned crossfitters are there to help with your form and lend a helping hand to improve your overall performance. Great gym and community of people; can't wait for my next lift!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Grandview is more than just a gym, it's someplace like home. The coaches and staff are some of the best to help people of all skill levels, not only that but they are awesome people in general! The gym has plenty of room for people to be part of the WOD or work on their own stuff. On top of all of that, the community is made up of some of the best people from around the area. People from all walks of life coming together for one goal! Great place to go anytime and I'm glad to call it my Crossfit home.

Fantastic experience: Whether you are just getting started or have been doing Crossfit for awhile, this gym is for you!!! The coaches are professional and know their stuff!! I love the people, energy, and competitiveness---hands down best gym in town!!

Fantastic experience: The best CrossFit gym in Ohio in my honest opinion. I have competed in sports since I could walk and have competed in bodybuilding before making the switch to Crossfit while at OSU. Best group of coaches anyone could ask for. I learned everything incredibly quick and with good technique thanks to their attention to deal. The fact that they have a Level 2 class geared towards competitive athletes makes it all worth it as well since I now have started to compete. Cannot go wrong here. Equipment is all relatively new and they are constantly getting new toys to play with as well. Love the sled work lately.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Crossfit Grandview from the beginning and love the coaches, facility, programming and especially the people. I would recommend Crossfit Grandview to anyone wanting to start Crossfit, train for an event or train for the games. Their expertise is second to none.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to CrossFit Grandview for a couple weeks. I've never worked out before and was a little scared to start. I went to the Elements classes anyway. What I found was a group of people that are super supportive and that stay around after they are done to cheer on the ones that are taking a little longer to finish. That support is what makes me get up to go to the 5:30am class! :) I'm having a lot of fun and all the workouts can be modified if you can't do the prescribed workout. Needless to say, I'm having a blast!

Fantastic experience: This CrossFit box is very well-equipped and spacious. The coaches are highly motivated and push you to your maximum potential. They also ensure that you are safe - even in big classes they patiently make sure that everyone uses proper form during all the movements. The WODs are nicely varied everyday but are always challenging and rewarding. Regardless of whether you're an experienced athlete or have little experience with fitness, I would highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Best gym that I've ever been too! Very knowledgable trainers and the best facilities! You have to check this place out! #CFGV

Fantastic experience: This is one of the nicest Crossfit boxes I have been to and being a member since 2011, the trainers treat all the members as if they were family. They invest in a lot of times in the members insuring they receive the prestigious quality training and assisting one and another through out the WODs. The equipment are state-of-the-art and are majority Rogue Fitness . Would highly recommend to those who maybe looking at a crossfit affiliate or to those who are dropping in.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with amazing programming! The coaches are great and willing to help you improve in order to achieve your fitness goals! Highly recommended for a drop in or to become a member!

Fantastic experience: LOVE this CrossFit gym. The trainers are knowledgeable, and patient, but at the same time they encourage you to push yourself more than you ever thought possible. The atmosphere is wonderful (and they play great music)! The Athletes Corner is a convenient place to pick up everything from post-WOD drinks to oatmeal. Equipment is clean and well organized. There is such a community atmosphere at CFVG- it's more than just a gym- it's a family!

Fantastic experience: CFGV has spoiled me. I haven't worked out in an atmosphere even close to this. I decided to give crossfit a try after a few years of a normal workout routine and I've been hooked since my first workout at CFGV. The coaches are amazing in every way. They're extremely knowledgable and they know how to apply their knowledge. The equipment and athletes corner are great.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to CFGV for four months now and cannot say enough good things about them. The staff loves what they do and you can see it in the way they treat the athletes that come in. There is so much support from both the coaches as well as those doing the workouts with you. The facility is well cared for and the equipment is top notch. The progress I've made in just 4 short months is a testament to the guidance that I've been given by everyone there. I highly recommend training here - whether you're local or just visiting town and want to do a drop in.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Crossfit Grandview for 9 months. I am hooked. The trainers are absolutely amazing. The results I have seen in myself in the last 9 months have surprised even me. I finally found a place to workout that I look forward to going to each day!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at a crossfit gym in Charleston, SC, New Orleans and Seattle and none compare to Crossfit Grandview! The facility and equipment are the best around and the coaches are second to none. It's good to have coaches who can lead by example and do so by competing in crossfit. There are plenty of classes throughout the day to accommodate anyone's schedule as well as open gym. Whether you're a beginner, a veteran crossfitter or an athlete looking to compete this gym can fit your needs!

Fantastic experience: i have been to a lot of different gyms. Grandview Barbell by far has the best facilities I have encountered. Their staff is highly experienced, knowledgable and concerned about fitness. I have had nothing but positive experiences here!

Fantastic experience: Been a member of the gym for 2 years now. I have been consistently working out ever since high school (33 y.o. now) and I've never been in better shape. It's a great gym, with great people, and a great atmosphere. Met a lot of new friends too. If you are looking for a place to workout hard and have some laughs along the way, this is the place for you.

Fantastic experience: One of the top CrossFit boxes in the nation. Outstanding coaches, facility and members. The workouts are demanding no matter your fitness level, the coaches spend a lot of time in every class teaching the progressions, going over the movements. They want everyone to get the most they can out of the hour. If you are looking to get in the best shape of your life, come here and get to work.

Fantastic experience: Expect a great workout everyday when you come in. Knowledgeable coaches that are more than willing to help before and after class and are truly passionate about crossfit. CFGV also has nutritional seminars/information readily available and gym sponsored events. Great workouts and experience, but also a lot of fun as well.

Fantastic experience: Great CrossFit gym. Makes people feel welcome.

Fantastic experience: Before I ride off into the sunset and leave Columbus behind I wanna just say to anyone looking for a gym that this is the best gym in Columbus. I've been a member for five years. I can promise that the staff are truly devoted, caring, and world-class. I can promise that membership gets you a real community of gym partners, friends, and even family. I will guarantee that no other gym has fitness programing with more substance, challenge, and satisfaction built into the bedrock of each day that you participate. I've sat here for 30 minutes, trying as hard as I can, and can't think of one bad experience there.....none. Get the membership, and enjoy .

Fantastic experience: great

Fantastic experience: Don't be confused by the Grandview Barbell name you'll see at this location, it's a split gym, more traditional weightlifting style (with AC!) on one half (that's Grandview Barbell) and CrossFit box (CrossFit Grandview) on the other. This is one of the nicest and best organized CrossFit gyms I've been to. The coach was well-spoken, encouraging, technically sound, and importantly, loud enough to hear even in the giant box with a class size of at least 20 in my session. The workout was great, and because of the amount, great condition, and organization of the facility, they easily handled such a large class. Everyone from the front desk to the coach to the members made me feel welcome and at home even though I was an out-of-towner dropping in on a single workout. It was well ventilated even on a hot summer day. Very impressive operation and I highly recommend! Cool shirts too

Fantastic experience: These folks know what they’re doing and they make sure you do it right. I’m an orthopedic surgery resident who reads about injuries from CrossFit nearly every day, so it was hard to convince me that joining was a good idea. But these coaches know when to push you, how to fix what you’re doing wrong and make sure you get a great workout while keeping yourself safe. Highly recommend

Positive experience: I would first like to say I have enjoyed my time at Crossfit Grandivew. I have been a member for over two years now. I usually attend the afternoon and evening classes. I am not a professional crossfitter but I have an appreciation for the intensity and camaraderie in this sport. I have also been a member of two other crossfit gyms within Ohio and this one I would say ranks second among the three I have had the experience to be apart of. The people here are all very nice and welcoming. It is an inclusive atmosphere. I will break down this review in two separate categories by facility, class experience. Facility: The new facility is a major upgrade form the previous facility. You now have showers, multiple stalls, and separate bathrooms for men and woman. It also seems to be more clean and sterile. The classes are divided into squares so everyone has their own area, which is nice. The equipment is in really good shape considering the amount of participants this gym sees on a daily basis. There are also more than one drinking fountain which is an upgrade. However, it doesn’t appear they change the filters very often for the water. The cost is approximately $130-$140 for the crossfit side. The other side is Grandview Barbell, which is a nice addition. That membership is approximately $125. If you pay for crossfit classes and want 24/7 access to barbell as well, you will pay the crossfit fee and an additional $35-$40. Which is another issue I have with the gym. If you are paying for the crossfit side, you should have automatic access to the barbell side (weights and equipment). I hope they consider changing this, but with the new facility, you can tell they are running a business and need the extra income. The clock and TV placement throughout the new facility makes very little sense. There should be multiple TV’s and clocks placed throughout for every participant to see. Again, these are all timed workouts. Key takeaway: include barbell equipment when you’re paying full price for the crossfit classes. Class experience: Over the last two years there have been multiple instructors coaching these classes. By far, the best and most passionate is Brandon (the owner). He is the lifeblood and glue that holds this gym together. Over the last 6 months he has stopped coaching and decided to spend more time with his family. Brandon was always willing to help a participant with their form and achieve their personal goals. The other coaches do not take this approach. They want you to book a personal training session and spend more money if they are going to help you. This is very apparent. The other coaches that I have experienced are James, Drake, and Scott. The class sizes are anywhere from 15-30 people depending on the time you attend. One point I would like to make is the music in this gym is sometimes tough to listen to. Each coach plays different music. It is along the lines of an upbeat mix where songs will last 30 seconds and then switch. A lot of the time it is also techno or EDM music/mixes. It makes it very difficult to get into a rhythm and push yourself within the workout. I have seen many members bring headphones instead of listening to the class music. Overall, the gym is a great experience if you are in the central Ohio region. If you want to say you do crossfit and work on some movements, this gym is for you.

Fantastic experience: If you need a great place to really get in shape, I highly recommend Crossfit Grandview and their health partners. Affiliate PT has helped me cure my joint pain when other methods have not worked. If you have pain or need help, go don't hesitate.

Fantastic experience: Warning, this is a lengthy review that will be good for someone new trying to jumpstart their fitness, experienced athletes, and drop-ins like myself. I reached out to CrossFit Grandview a week prior to my arrival, I was able to sign my waiver and arrange a price for my 2 week stay in Columbus, OH. As a drop-in, I can say that the community was very welcoming and their facility has the space and the availability for you to do your own programming or you can jump into a regular class, or a more advanced (L2) if you pass their movement assessment. I had the ability to do both their regular classes and L2… their programming is superb, they ensure that you as a member have a good warm-up before your actual workout. The workouts are challenging well put together. If you are new and want to jumpstart your fitness, during my time there I noticed how they had an on board program called Elements, this is where a coach is teach a new member all the foundational movements. This helps the new members learn the basics before they get to enjoy and sweat with the regular classes. I don’t have all the details, but if you have been curious about CrossFit, definitely reach out to them, YOU WON’T REGRET IT. Whether you’re a local, a traveler, or a newbie, this should be your choice to get a good workout with a great box and an amazing community.

Fantastic experience: I started working with Kate (bodybiz) 4 months ago. I am 56 and was stuck at 255lbs. I was working out 5-6 days a week and was tracking my food. I could not lose weight. I am now 30lbs lighter and eating more food. Thanks Kate.

Fantastic experience: I joined the gym a little less than a month ago and have nothing but approve things to say about the gym! All of the coaches are super friendly, passionate, and helpful. I was nervous and a little intimidated to join at first, but I am sure glad I did and highly recommend the gym to anyone who wants a challenge!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at CFGV for 5 years now. I really love this gym! Great coaching and programming. Weather you are new to CrossFit or just dropping in, the staff and members will make you feel right at home !

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Grandview has been the best gym I've been to in the Columbus area. Outstanding coaches, an awesome, open environment and an unstoppable community. This gym helps facilitate a well-rounded athlete from providing in-house individual nutrition counseling from certified professionals, one-on-one instruction, and seasonal special large-group activities in addition to 10 Crossfit classes every day. Crossfit Grandview is where you want to be!

Fantastic experience: The programming is fantastic, the coaches know their stuff and will kindly correct your form, and the community is amazing. Love this gym!

Fantastic experience: I love this place & the people! Great place to come if your just starting into doing CrossFit or have been doing it for awhile.

Fantastic experience: Having never been to a CrossFit gym in my life when I started at CrossFit Grandview, I was more than intimidated. But over the last 2 years, this gym has become my second home. My body has transformed with the help of the coaches and the excellent programming and their in-house nutrition coaching. Brandon and his team have cultivated a true community within this gym that is supportive, welcoming, challenging and inclusive to all. I’m in the best shape of my life and have also formed such great relationships—all thanks to CFGV. THIS PLACE IS THE BEST.

Fantastic experience: An outstanding facility with all the tools you need to achieve your fitness goals. More importantly, Crossfit Grandview offers a supportive community and knowledgeable coaches. The programming methodology is sound and scalable to any skill level, which makes it ideal for beginners or experienced athletes. My fitness level continues to improve even after multiple years of CrossFit.

Fantastic experience: Grandview Crossfit is amazing because of the management team and the instructors. I learn something new in every class from the instructors. The warm ups prepare your for the WOD. The exercises are explained and tips are given. The convenience of classes every hour beginning at 5:30 am through 7:30 pm. You can always grab a work out 24 x 7 at Grandview Barbell. It has everything you need plus new showers and lockers. What makes it for me is the special instructions available for personal training. They can assist with diet through Body Biz. Kate is the best fitness and diet instructor I have ever met. She cares about her clients and pushes you beyond anything you think you could accomplish. Grandview Crossfit is best workout fitness facility in central Ohio!!!!

Fantastic experience: My tightest community in Columbus. I enjoy coming everyday working out which I view as the best part of my day. Great programming. I have been doing L2 programming for a year and a half, which has improved my fitness and mental toughness a great deal. Love this place.

Fantastic experience: Until I joined CrossFit Grandview, I had not been a member of a gym, stuck to any sort of workout plan, and was generally living unhealthy. Thanks to a friend, I joined CrossFit Grandview and couldn't be happier. The coaches and other members are so welcoming of new members. I've never felt looked down upon for not knowing how or not being able to do a movement or lift. It's a great community all-around!

Fantastic experience: Great trainers and a welcoming community make this gym standout as one of the best in the area.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in from Boulder Colorado for a noon class with coach Katy. With a class of over 20, Katy had a very strong command of the group, and covered a complicated workout with simple and easy to follow instruction. Katy was able to keep a close eye on all of us and made some quick corrections during the WOD. I was also fortunate to get an hour session in with their PT specialist - Dr. Mandi. I have chronically tight shoulders and she was able to not only get in there and loosen things up, but gave me a list of about 8-10 exercises I can do at my home gym to keep up the momentum! Mandi also videoed me doing each of the exercises and sent them to me with a description of exactly how do each of them! WOW! You can just "feel" the quality of the gym through the coaches, the PT work I had done and even the other athletes. As a long-time CrossFitter and world traveler, I would put CFGV right up there with the best gyms I've been too! Thank you Kati and Mandi!! Hope to be back soon!

Fantastic experience: I came to Columbus because I was recruited by the OSU fencing team. My goal was to make it to the NCAAs as an individual, but after a year of practicing 6+ hours every day, I was heartbroken to find out that the coaches would never give me an opportunity to compete and still didn't know my name. I've wanted to be a part of the CFGV community since coming to Columbus but didn't walk through the doors for 3 years because I was intimidated by everyones athleticism and the price. But since joining I regret not joining sooner. The community in this box is beyond better and closer knit than that of my varsity team. The programming is incredible and I can see and feel myself progressing in the short time I've been here. The coaches all introduced themselves to me when I first came and they truly pay attention to every single athlete in class--If someone's position looks incorrect, it gets fixed. If a movement can be better performed, the coaches let that athlete know. I've tried working out by myself at global gyms, but this is next level. The workout of the day is always fun (and every third Thursday of the month is a partner workout!), but open space can also be utilized as an open gym (so long as it doesn't disrupt the main class, of course). It never gets boring here and I feel more confident in myself than I ever have. If you're just visiting town and dropping in, the gym is always clean, its a large space with all of the crossfit equipment, and there's a little shop with pre-workout drinks, snacks, and proteins shakes/powders. I love this place so much and definitely recommend dropping in to anyone willing to try. It'll be the best decision of your life.

Fantastic experience: Great to be able to Dropin While here for Rogue Invitational. Thanks for the hospitality!

Fantastic experience: I had a unique request but got quick and helpful information from Brandon Couden!!! This is why I love the Crossfit community. Thank you CFGV and Brandon!

Fantastic experience: Loved working out here (but recently moved away from Columbus)! The facilities, staff, and community are top notch. My experience living in Columbus would not have been nearly as good without Crossfit Grandview!

Fantastic experience: I started CrossFit by joining a partner day with my bestie. I've been hooked ever since. Amazing people, motivating instructors and a workout that will kick your butt!

Fantastic experience: Best box I've had the opportunity to drop in while traveling. Vey friendly and welcoming staff, and the gym was top notch and lots of equipment for everyone. Looking forward to coming back!

Fantastic experience: Best Gym for complete fitness,can not stress enough the fact that they have world class trainers at this gym... Go give your life a complete makeover and be in the best shape of your life,not to forget make lifelong friends here too

Fantastic experience: Been going here for almost a year and the staff is the highlight of the place. Great variety of equipment but staff is what brings this place to be top notch.

Fantastic experience: It's a great gym, especially with the 24/7 barbell schedule for those that work weird hours.

Fantastic experience: Top notch gym, awesome coaches, excellent store, and great people. This is an excellent place to train and I recommend it to anyone!

Fantastic experience: In one year as a member at CrossFit Grandview I have so much as an athlete! The coaches are amazing, the atmosphere is high energy and the people are so encouraging! Best Crossfit gym, absolutely LOVE it!
