Fantastic experience: Awesome box! Awesome people! Awesome atmosphere! I thoroughly enjoyed my time at CFRockdale! I can't wait to get back!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I was in the area and dropped in and it was a great experience. Friendly people and Sheryl was a great coach! Will definitely be back when I’m in town!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of the CrossFit Rockdale family for almost 5 years. Best decision I ever made. From the start to the end the coaches are there to help with questions, correct form and safety. Always upbeat atmosphere, have a great time during training and WODs. Fastest hour ever! If your looking for a challenge physically and mentally, and want to improve your fitness level, lose weight or gain strength. I highly recommend CrossFit Rockdale.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere. Coaches have your safety in mind. Keeps lifting equipment up to date. I started in September of 2017 My previous experience in working out was minimal. Initially I couldn’t finish a workout, but I kept at it and saw improvement in Strength, Endurance and lost some weight. I have improved so much and cannot thank the coaches enough.

Fantastic experience: Very friendly community, excellent location for my drop-in while visiting the area! Clean gym and great coaching.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in here while traveling for work. Will be my go to box when in in town. Solid equipment, great atmosphere and coaching. Everyone is very welcoming, I would recommend to anyone in the area. Looking forward to coming back during my next trip.

Fantastic experience: One year later, I could not imagine doing Crossfit anywhere else! This is not just a fitness center it is a fitness family. The best workouts you will ever do with an amazing group!

Fantastic experience: From being completely out of shape and out of the excersise scene for over 4 years i had a little fear going into something like crossfit. But the moment I started, I felt instantly at home. My confidence everyday is boosted from the team-like aura that engulfs you. Everyone is working towards something. We all work together. Not by ourselves alone. !! Update: I've lost 33 lbs from July- December. I look better, feel better, and more importantly I'm healthy and happier!!

Fantastic experience: I came home from college over Christmas break and visited Crossfit Rockdale. This is one of the most welcoming gyms I have been to. They have great coaches and members. I will definitely come back when I come back home.

Fantastic experience: They will take your workout to the Next Level.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Rockdale is an outstanding box. The Adams family has created a warm and welcoming family atmosphere while motivating everyone to perform and push themselves to their respective limits. A couple of things that separate them from the pack for me is their maintenance of a strict schedule within each workout to maximize every minute and the complexity of their programming. Despite the fast pace and high intensity, the coaches keep everyone moving at a comfortable pace by giving extra attention to those who are learning.

Positive experience: Great place for kids to join gymnastics.

Fantastic experience: Excellent workouts with excellent people. I joined almost a year ago and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made. Our coaches are top notch. They teach and preach proper form to keep you from hurting yourself while also pushing you to improve yourself. The athletes are good people. They are like family. I look forward seeing them as much as I look forward to the workouts. There are no egos, just good people looking to improve themselves and motivate others in the process. I'm pretty sure CrossFit and more specifically Crossfit Rockdale has added years to my life.

Fantastic experience: This place is great!!

Fantastic experience: I just want to say this place has some of the most motivational coaches and friendliest athletes I have ever met. Don't just go to some gym just to quit later; come here to become better.

Fantastic experience: This is a great place to work on your Crossfit skills. I was a drop in for a week and truly felt at home, and enjoyed the members of the Rockdale family! They made me fill like I was apart of the family which made for a great week of strength training. Wonderful place with Great People. I highly suggest trying the program.

Fantastic experience: I just wanted to start out with telling whoever is reading this that I am 14 years old. From the beginning, the coaches helped me modify (or scale) different workouts and movements to make sure I was learning the safest techniques. I say this to tell you that the coaches at Crossfit Rockdale care about every single athlete's safety and well being. So, if you are considering joining, know that the coaches will help you with whatever you need to be able to safely and correctly complete each workout. I started at Crossfit Rockdale late last year and not only do I have my own family members with me as athletes, I also am to able to have a family outside of my own with every athlete there. At Crossfit Rockdale, there are no real egos or showboats. While we all have a good time making different jokes with each other, the athletes also support one another through everything, inside and outside the box. Crossfit Rockdale truly is a family and anybody who is considering coming will see how quickly they find another family in the athletes there.

Fantastic experience: Great group of people that enjoy working out here. Great equipment to use and always great workouts.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Rockdale is hands down the best crossfit gym around. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. Everybody there is so encouraging to be around. I highly recommend this gym to anyone!

Fantastic experience: CROSSFIT ROCKDALE KICKS @SS! Literally, it will. As someone who has enjoyed endurance sports nearly all his life, I find Cross-fit has a great combination of endurance and strength training. I've been a member of cycling groups, gyms, and running clubs, yet none of them have felt more welcoming than this place. Everyone here is very humble and encouraging. I can see why some may consider Cross-fit intimidating, yet all the coaches here ease you into everything and provide you with the knowledge you need to have a successful and personally challenging workout regardless of your experience level. Timeliness and making the most use of your time has always been important to me. This place embodies that, as classes always start and finish on time and you will certainly get your hours worth. If you've decided that cross-fit is something you'd like to try or maybe it's just time for a change from your existing box, you'd be crazy not to consider Crossfit Rockdale. NON NOBIS SOLUM See ya in class!

Fantastic experience: Let me start by saying that not all Crossfit boxes are the same. Yes, they all follow the same formula for weight lifting and conditioning, but the one thing that makes Crossfit stand out from other gyms is the fact that it provides a positive, community based experience. Not all Crossfit boxes have the same environment that Crossfit Rockdale has created. Firstly, the coaches are personally dedicated to seeing every single athlete achieve their goals on a day to day basis. The coaches are also certified and then some due to the personal choice that Lawrence & Sheryl Adams (Owners) made to make sure that their members could have the most safe environment in order to try new and difficult things with the most confidence. Second, just walk in to see what this box is like and you will immediately notice that the members are very welcoming to strangers, as well as excited to be working out together. Crossfit Rockdale has created a family among its members and the relationships show. Lastly, every member of Crossfit Rockdale can proudly show you the many goals that they have achieved since day one. Crossfit Rockdale believes in striving to make progress,-and seeing fitness as a journey, not to be obsessed with being perfect. As a result, the members are achieving goals that they could have never imagined before they started Crossfit. Crossfit Rockdale can help you achieve that goal whether it be weight loss, emotional/mental strength, or just gaining physical strength. There are only positive things associated with this box, and I have experienced all of them first hand. You won't be disappointed if you give it a try!

Fantastic experience: I am so happy I joined Crossfit Rockdale! It is not only a great group of people to encourage and motivate you, It is a great workout! I never really knew what I was doing at a regular gym. The one on one coaching and guiding me to be my best self is what I needed and what you get here! I am happy to be apart of this this box! Best decision I ever made!

Fantastic experience: The best environment for a workout/crossfit I have found. All the coaches are very attentive. They expect your best and help you achieve it!

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a crossfit home this is the place to be!!! I love this place! I love the people!! The best decision I have ever made

Fantastic experience: I joined Crossfit Rockdale a year ago. Previously I participated in various activities including spin classes, running, and sprint triathlons. I was inconsistent about working with weights. I was losing muscle mass as I am over 50. My desire to get good aerobic workouts while developing some muscle mass led to my decision to try crossfit. The coaching, constant guidance to minimize the chance of injury and supportive atmosphere make Crossfit Rockdale a special place. Visit soon and start this incredible journey!

Fantastic experience: After my first class at CrossFit Rockdale I knew I was home. I recently moved here from California and my biggest fear with the move was that I wouldn’t find a CrossFit box that compared to my original. I can say with honesty and conviction that I found it. At CF Rockdale we are a family. I’m a bit of an oddball and tend not to be super outgoing, but I was welcomed immediately. One of my favorite things about this gym is that we do everything as a group. We warm up together, work out together, cheer for each other, and we end class with a group huddle. You will not feel left out here, ever. CF Rockdale has many seasoned athletes, but it is also hands down the best place for beginners. The owners, LA and Sheryl, care about you. They will make sure that you are only doing movements that you are ready for, but they will also always push you to better yourself. So whether you are new to CF or are looking for a gym where you can take your WODs to the next level, you’ll fit right in. For me CrossFit isn’t a choice anymore; it’s my way of life, my Viking journey. I refuse to imagine my life without this place. If you’re reading this, I hope you come check it out. You won’t regret it. And you’ll already have at least one friend. Come say hi, I’ll be the guy drinking out of a horn.

Fantastic experience: Cross Fit Rockdale is the best. Sheryl , LA and the entire Cross Fit team are encouraging and motivating. No matter which night I go, I leave more determined to get fit. I am a new member, yet I fell right at home. If you are thinking about joining A Cross Fit Box and you love people, Cross Fit Rockdale is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Rockdale isn't just a box, it's a family. My first time going to watch a class, I had multiple people coming up to introduce themselves. Everyone is so welcoming, encouraging, and truly want you to succeed. At Crossfit Rockdale, I'm thankful you aren't thrown into a regular class right after signing up! The elements classes are so great to teach you all of the lifting movements and fundamentals of crossfit! I'm so sad that I am going back to school and moving away from my CFR family! :( This group of people is seriously something so special! I'm so thankful this is the box where I started my crossfit career. I wouldn't rather be anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: Let me start off by saying I've been an avid weightlifter since high school and I've always been apprehensive to try crossfit because I thought I might lose a lot of my strength. After tearing my ACL playing football and going through rehab a year ago I found I was having difficulty getting back on track. I wasn't motivated to go to the gym anymore. Slowly I began gaining weight and losing my strength. I needed a change from what I was used to. That's when I decided to try out crossfit Rockdale. My fiancé told me she had heard good things about this particular box from one of her family friends. LA, Sheryl, and Krista are very knowledge and do a great job coaching at any experience level you may have starting out. Anyone can do crossfit so don't be intimidated to come check it out! You'll be greeted by friendly sweaty faces and motivational atmosphere that's contagious. I've been with CFR for almost 2 months now and I've leaned out considerably while also gaining my strength back. I was also concerned about my knee when I started but it now feels as if the injury never happened. Come check it out!

Fantastic experience: I'm so thankful to have CFR in my life. I've been doing crossfit for almost a year and a half now and the changes and improvements I've seen physically and even mentally are amazing! The coaches and members here have become some of my best friends and even family. I even met my amazing boyfriend through the box :) These people are all so supportive and truly care about everyone apart of the box, The coaches go above and beyond and the programming... It works! I know for me crossfit is a must and I couldn't imagine training anywhere but at crossfit Rockdale!

Fantastic experience: all I can say is that I love it here. the environment is so amazing and motivating it's simply incredible. the coaches are such a huge help. they explain things and help you to understand the movements better. the box has brought me close with so many amazing people. this gym has definitely been a blessing in my life.

Fantastic experience: My box is the best. Best place to come and release the stress of work family traffic something is going to happen that will make you laugh and the workout is the best my box

Fantastic experience: Was excited to find this box while I was in town for a month! They are the real deal! The community is great and they also have great coaches who helped me continue to improve while I was in town. Go check them out!

Fantastic experience: Ok, guys, so I DO NOT write reviews. However, I thought this was worth writing. I have been attending CrossFit Rockdale since June 2016 (still a newbie!) and have not regretted my decision. I always wanted to try out CrossFit but would hear how intense it was. I took a chance to talk to one the owners of the box. From my first conversation with Sheryl, she made me feel comfortable and part of the CrossFit family. The coaches here are amazing. This is the only CrossFit box that I know of the REQUIRES ALL new members to take a 9 day beginners course. This is to ensure that each member have proper form and knows how to accurately use the equipment, preventing injury. I've noticed that the coaches genuinely care about the well being of their members. I've had lower back problems all my life. For the first time I can complete intense workouts without feeling like my back is going to break in half. I believe this is due to attentiveness the CrossFit Rockdale staff takes towards their members. I could write so much more but you get the gist. Try them out! These guys are going places!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit is the best workout I never imagined I would do. It was tough at first but continue to grow stronger each day. What makes this journey even better is CrossFit Rockdale! I couldn't have picked the best Box in my area! The coaches are the best, knowledgeable, encouraging, and push you to achieve your best and emphasize on progress and not perfection because its a journey which starts with YOU walking into the Box!! This is by far the best experience of my life and if you're ready to embark on this journey, then this is the place to start! The minute you walk through that CrossFit Rockdale door, you life will forever change, for the best!!!

Fantastic experience: I wanted to get back into shape and didn't know where to start. A friend's of mine had been doing Crossfit and mentioned I should give it a try. I had just moved to Georgia and didn't really know anyone. My niece did gymnastics next door I would go watch her practices and I watched the classes from the bleachers wanting to do it but told myself I couldn't it was to hard. After about 2 months of watching I made a choice, scheduled the assessment with coach LA and decided to take a chance. That was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Crossfit Rockdale sets you up to succeed from starting everyone off with the Elements class teaching you the basics of what CrossFit is. Crossfit Rockdale is like an extended family the people here are great and are very supportive. There are several reasons why I love this box. One instance that stood out to me was I had been going for a few months and was pushing myself hard. I felt like I was getting winded but I wanted to finish the workout. Coach LA was coaching the class and he came up to me asked me how I felt. I was breathing heavy I said I wanted to finish. He said wait a minute checked my pulse and it was really high. He said you need to wait, you're color is draining from your face and your pulse is way too high. I tried to convince him I was ok. He told me no I'm not going to let you go just yet you need to wait. I know you want to push yourself but you can't work at this high intensity for that long period of time. Once your pulse comes down you can do 1 more round then you're done. I'm grateful that he saw the signs and he stepped in when he did. I'm confident in the coaching staff that they will not let you do anything that will hurt you or harmful to your health. They pay attention to every athlete in the classes and recognize the difference between someone pushing themselves and red lining. I have seen the coaching staff do that several times since my membership with them. The coaching staff are great when they know if any previous injury, pain, recent injuries, they will have to modify the workout so you won't further injure yourself. If it is persistent they look out for your well being and wanted to make sure you're good to continue so you don't make the injury worse.I love this box and I make it a point to make it to every class that I can. I made some good friends at this box. When I doubt myself one of the coaches will talk with me about the WOD and how I should execute the workout. The coaches and students are genuinely happy for you when you meet a goals or finish a WOD. They celebrate in all of your victories no matter how small you may think they are. There's no doubt in my mind I made the right choice in choosing Crossfit Rockdale, the coaches are amazing and help you realize your potential even when you don't see it at the time. Give Crossfit Rockdale a try and discover what you're capable of, you might just surprise yourself...

Fantastic experience: It was a warm hot summer day when I first stepped foot inside the CrossFit Rockdale box and met the owners/coaches. They had not "officially" opened up yet, but as soon as I was greeted I knew that would be the place where I would begin my crossfit journey. So with that being said, let me rewind for a second, I was coming from a dark place at the time having had 4 years of kidney surgeries prior to stepping foot into the box (the surgeries were to save my right kidney along with fixing drainage), and with the kidney roller coaster I was up and down in my workout routines. Growing up I was always pretty active playing travel soccer, running cross-country and being a member at LA Fitness. CrossFit was my new beginning to the work-out world. Coach LA and Coach Sheryl were on board with everything -- I kept them in the loop with my medical history -- An example: My right kidney will always be more enlarged than the left -- the first time I ever did ab mat sit-ups I could feel pain in my right kidney, which I discussed with all of the coaches at CrossFit Rockdale. This pain was due to the placement of the ab mat, so we all decided it would be best if I did not use the ab mat for the sit ups. Another example: It was a late night work out at the box (the workout consisted of box jumps), I was exhausted from the week with my work hours but did not want to miss a night at the gym. By this time, I had been a member at CrossFit Rockdale for at least 5-6 months and was starting to notice results quickly. I became one of those neon wearing CrossFit junkies, but hey GATA right? Anyways, that night while hurrying myself along to do box jumps quickly because it was for time, I stepped on the box wrong (too wide) and fell backwards on my left arm causing my should to pop out of place. Thankfully one of the coaches is EMT Certified and took a look. It was not broken. The coaches and myself discussed that it would be best for me to rest my shoulder the next couple of days. They also needed a doctors note of release in order for me to begin workouts again, so I went to my physical therapist for a month trying to get my shoulder back and ready for CrossFit. Along with PT I was given at home exercises in order to improve and strengthen the muscles around my shoulder (which I have continued to this day). I came back to Crossfit Rockdale with my doctor's note and began workouts after that. Every now and then there would be a hick-up with my shoulder, but that is to be expected if you have ever had an injury in a sport that you love. At CrossFit Rockdale the coaches listen to your needs and empathize with whatever is going on with you whatever it may be. They LISTEN and CARE about every single member in their box. This box is more than just any old CrossFit box it is a family unit. <3

Fantastic experience: I joined Crossfit Rockdale in late May 2015. I was done with the traditional gym but had not exercised at home regularly like I planned. I had heard very little about Crossfit and friends kept telling me I would love it. Well my 1st time in the box I was immediately struck by the friendly atmosphere. People I've never seen before were greeting me & introducing themselves. The coaches are top notch & are genuinely concerned about you, your goals, and your safety. The elements program really helps you get comfortable with the terminology and movements used in the workouts. Once you're done with that program the coaches still keep an eye on you to make sure you're ok. One time I recall happened early on where I guess I was pushing myself too hard & didn't realize it. Coach Sheryl came and asked me if I was ok. I said "yeah sure." Well she went to Coach L.A. & had him check on me. Apparently my lips had turned purple or blue. He came over & asked if I was ok. Again I said "yeah sure. I'm just outta shape." He took my pulse and then told me to sit down for awhile. He came back checked my pulse again and said I could continue but to ease up. That wasn't the only time a coach has saved me from myself. That's why I love this box. It's helped me come a long way physically and mentally over the last 10 months. I encourage anyone interested at all in Crossfit or just getting in shape to check us out.

Fantastic experience: Family to family ... I am so pleased that my family became members and joined the Crossfit Rockdale family. Your four walls may be filled with iron, metal, racks, wallballs, and kettlebells -- but it is also filled with the best instructors and coaching around. Your box is top notch on the professional level of coaching - from elements to finally getting to join my first WOD to hitting some new PRs. The new friends I have made along my journey will be ones I will maintain throughout the years!! the laughter, the stories ... and omg the sweat! thank you for helping me along this new journey called Crossfit Rockdale.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Rockdale is the real deal! LA and Sheryl (the owners) are simply awesome. They ensure your safety at all times and are very encouraging. I am so happy that I choose to be a part of this box. It doesn't matter how horrible you feel, the minute you enter CrossFit Rockdale you experience a total transformation both in mind and body. Thank you CrossFit Rockdale for giving me the opportunity to grow stronger and gain confidence.
