Profectus Performance

Fantastic experience: I joined Riverbend after my previous box closed. Before choosing to workout here I tested a few other gyms, but felt most welcomed and comfortable at Riverbend. I could not be happier with the choice I made! The athletes are so welcoming and friendly--I feel as though I am part of a family. Everyone looks out for one another and someone is always there to cheer you on when you need it most. The coaching here far exceeds the coaching I previously received, or experienced while looking at other gyms. I cannot stress that point enough--there is such a focus on technique and working through movements, as well as thorough care and detail that goes into the programming of conditioning work and WODs. I would recommend this gym to anyone, of any skill level or experience, who is looking to get into crossfit.

Fantastic experience: Definitely recommend Riverbend. I had been looking for a crossfit type gym for awhile to help strengthen some growing aches/pains I had been experiencing. I am an endurance athlete (including an Ironman) and was very nervous about taking on such a different type of workout regiment, even though I really thought it could help. The coaches here are great and have a focus on getting everyone in proper conditioning prior to advancing in technique and/or weights so that injuries do not happen. It has opened a whole new level of fitness for me and I look forward to working out there every time.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! You will not find a better CrossFit gym.

Fantastic experience: 5 stars for the most amazing gym and coaching staff in the area! It's full of supportive members that are like a family. The workouts are scaled to your needs and fitness level. The coaches know what every member is capable of and encourage you to move up when the time is right. You won't find a better gym anywhere around!

Fantastic experience: A great addition to the Edwardsville community. The trainers do a great job teaching technique and skills while pushing physical limits.

Fantastic experience: Love the coaches and the place is very clean and there's plenty of space for a good workout!

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I have ever been too. Willie and KT are awesome coaches, and the group workouts are really engaging.

Fantastic experience: Finally! This is the gym for me! I can go in at my own hours. Help, advice and recommendations for my fitness routine and nutrition pattern are always there when I need it. The coaches motivate us by building a relationship, checking in and offering tips for optimal performance regularly. When I first arrived, I was afraid of weights and was used to walking with a limp because of a structural imbalance. The coaches built an individualized program for me. Before I knew it- I was lifting weights, building muscle and restructuring my posture. I have reached new heights in my fitness and no longer limp around after a long walk or workout. I love the positive attitudes and comraderie at this gym! Do yourself a favor and join us!!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with the best coaches and programming around. They use the best methods to achieve overall health, which is prescribing workouts and nutrition based on the individual. They take the opposite of a cookie cutter approach. The people here are wonderful and are such a supportive community. If you're looking to make a positive, lasting change in your life, I highly recommend Profectus!

Fantastic experience: For all ages and abilities, this gym is what you need. Couldn't ask for a better, more knowledgeable, friendly coaching staff.

Fantastic experience: An amazing place to start getting fit no matter where you are at! The coaches are amazing as well. I started here a month ago and I already feel I’ve achieved more than I thought I could. Definitely recommend Profectus Performance to everyone.

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend checking this gym out! I recently joined Profectus Performance for their 6 week challenge to get me back on track and fit into the clothes in my closet comfortably again. The coaches helped me obtain my goal by providing a wide variety of class time options, at home work out plans, nutritional guidance with meal plans and an overall fun experience! I was able to reach my goal and lost 21lbs and down 3.2% body fat in 6 weeks while working full time and being a mom to two kids under 3yrs.

Fantastic experience: Supportive community with caring and knowledgeable coaching staff that will go to great lengths to help clients meet their fitness and heath goals.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at Profectus Performance for a little over a year now and would highly recommend this gym. I was not familiar with the lifts/movements that are part of the workouts, but the coaches are phenomenal and have helped my form and confidence improve over the last year. They are also great at modifying workouts to fit each individual’s needs. I have also participated in a 6 week challenge at they gym. I was able to stick to the challenge through the support from the coaches and other members. The challenge really helped me in my fitness journey with nutrition. I never thought I would say I look forward to going to the gym, but I do! The community and coaches are what make this place the best gym in the area. I am so happy I walked in and decided to join!

Fantastic experience: Love going to this gym. The coaches and other members make it enjoyable to get a good workout in! And they’re always switching up the workouts so you’re never bored. Great, great place! They’re also fully dedicated to you reaching your goals no matter what that may be! Definitely recommend it!

Fantastic experience: Great Gym! Coaches are amazing, and very knowledgeable. The programming here compared to many other gyms I’ve been apart of doesn’t even compare! I love the atmosphere, love the people, and highly recommend to anyone looking for a great strength and conditioning/Crossfit facility!

Positive experience: Yep

Fantastic experience: Incredible gym! It's very clean, equipment is always in great condition, and the atmosphere is so welcoming! Coaching staff is knowledgeable and always willing to help whether you're new to CrossFit or been a member for a long time! Check them out if you're ever in the Edwardsville area!
