Fantastic experience: Crossfit: You are googling it...Wondering if you should try it.There are so many gyms out there why should you go here. I have been a member since it opened. I have visited many boxes (crossfit Gyms) and I can tell you these guys are NO JOKE. They are at the top of their game! Are you worried it is too hard for you to try crossfit? Or you aren't fit enough? Are you intimidated? Are you not sure if this is for you? Well let me put you at ease. I am not easy to please, and I can tell you that this is the place to be. A great business always starts with a great leader. A leader is someone who makes other people feel better about themselves when they are around him. IN comes Joe one of the coaches and owners, you will encounter at this box. This guy will make you feel so amazing and help you transform your life that you will want to tell the world (like I am )how amazing he is. His understanding about everyones different goals is amazing. This is the no judgement zone. He will not ridicule you, never make fun of you, but rather he will encourage you over and over and over. Think of every class as a PERSONAL TRAINER. Crossfit is a different animal. You will have no problem staying motivated. You owe it to yourself to walk into this place just to meet Joe. Every Day there is a different workout so you never get bored. Then there is Vick. Vick is a natural when it comes to coaching. He has been coaching at all levels for years. He's a teacher by profession so teaching others comes naturally to him. He works out with the participants, so understands what you are going through and helps your succeed. His insights on how to get healthy, be safe while working out and more importantly his willingness for you to succeed is unparalleled. Then there is Coach Danny; he is a Crossfit Regional Competitor but an all around super nice guy. He is always smiling and really has a passion for what he does. He is a master at olympic Lifts (type of weight lifting you will learn) and more importantly he is totally dedicated to working with everyone individually so that they can get results. My kids also go here. They attend the Crossfit Kids class and look forward to it every week. They hang with Coach Deb and love her. Finally the most important thing about this gym is the community. You will meet people that will become your life long friends and will support you through everything just BECAUSE. That is the type of people that come here. SO if you are looking for a gym to get healthy and challenge yourself and try something new. You need to go to the best: Guerrilla Crossfit Paramus. You must choose the best or you won't be satisfied. Ask for Joe , You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: An amazing CrossFit gym and fitness facility. It boasts the best motivating and knowledgeable coaches who are experts in their field. The programming and workouts are methodical and progressive. I have achieved personal records (PRs) I never thought possible. It is a magnificent community that is full of positive energy and members who have become like family. I look forward to the daily workout, it is truly the highlight of my day!

Fantastic experience: I can not say enough positive things about my experience at Guerrilla Crossfit Paramus and all the training coaches there. Thanks to my good friend who brought me in, From the moment I walked in 11 months ago I felt welcomed. I knew I found the perfect place for a fitness goal I had this 2022 and was achieved . Coach Joe, Coach Alex, Coach Blake and Coach Naama are seriously the best and amazing!!! Every single class walks you through everything in the WOD and makes you feel super comfortable and ready. I've been to another crossfit gym and several gyms and I can finally say I found a great place and community. The gym is absolutely well equipped and always clean. Do not hesitate to make that first contact. I do recommend.

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried multiple gyms in the area but Guerilla is the best all around. The coaches and attendees are super nice and welcoming. The facility is spacious, sparkling clean, and air conditioned at any given time. Every workout is different and challenging with an option to scale to my ability on that day. So happy I found this gym family!

Fantastic experience: Coming from a CrossFit newbie - I’m so happy I joined. You get what you put in; if you show up for yourself, you will get stronger. And this is the strongest I’ve felt in years! Special shout out to Coach Blake who has encouraged me to come to the classes that intimidate me the most. For any beginners afraid to start their journey, trust the coaches! They will take care of you the moment you walk in and push you to be your strongest self. There is a learning curve with a few exercises, but the movements are always broken down with moderated versions available. Overall friendly community, clean facilities and talented coaches. I am constantly humbled at the strength of the people around me!

Fantastic experience: I dropped into guerrilla fitness while visiting family in Paramus. Deb was unbelievably kind, generous, and flexible. The coach, Joe, was welcoming and knowledgeable. The facility was beautiful, clean, and well-stocked. Lastly, the community was kind and made me feel right at home. I cannot recommend this gym enough!

Fantastic experience: Great facility and amazing staff! Walter, the general manager, has treated me and my friend with so much care and patience. The whole staff is there to take care of you! Clean and comfortable environment.

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for the last 2 days because I was traveling. Absolutely an upstanding gym with fantastic coaching and a great atmosphere! I Highly recommend this gym. I visit Jeresy a lot and will return when I can and look forward to it!

Fantastic experience: This is a gym like no other! I had found Guerilla fitness on a google search after feeling stuck and unmotivated at my old gym. Right from the start the team at Guerilla we’re super helpful and patient with all my questions and inquiries. I decided to do a trial class and I was instantly hooked (I even was able to get my bff to join with me). I quickly realized that this is not just a gym but a family. I have never felt so much support in community like this before. From the coaches to the members, everyone is extremely friendly, inspiring, and encouraging. I am so proud to call myself a Guerilla and be apart of this amazing community.

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym I have ever been to!! I joined Guerrilla Fitness back in November and I can honestly say WOW. The love and support at this gym is something I have never experienced before. There was a day recently where I was struggling and by struggling I mean STRUGGLING. The support and encouragement that was surrounding me and pushing me to keep going and not stop the last few meters on the row was the most heartwarming motivational moment I have been a part of. It felt like I won a marathon! The staff makes sure you are taken care of and you workout needs are met no matter how little to no experience you have. Let’s just say I couldn’t jump rope AT ALL before joining Guerrilla and now I can (kinda) My squats are not so bad now (still bad but improved) ALL THANKS TO MY HOMEBOY BLAKE. In all honesty, the BEST place to get a fantastic workout and motivation to get anyone going. I love Guerrilla Fitness and everyone there, all staff and members have been very welcoming and just keep you going even when you think you can’t anymore. If that’s not a great gym atmosphere I don’t know what is! Thank you to all the trainers and members at Guerrilla!

Fantastic experience: Im so happy to be part of the Guerilla Family. If you are looking to enjoy, get in shape, train with experts of CrossFit this is your place. They have great hours for early riser like me or late morning to night classes. It has parking and very close to all highways. Just sign up and enjoy!

Fantastic experience: Recently visited Guerrilla in Paramus and met Joe, the owner. Firstly, I have never met a more genuine gym owner, or had a more welcoming experience, than I did when I walked into Guerrilla Fitness. The facility is HUGE and had all of the essentials. A class was in progress at the time and I got to watch... lots of energy and an age-diverse group which is a plus, and it looked so much fun! Needless to say, I'm coming back.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I go to Guerrilla CrossFit and we cannot be more impressed with this place. The staff is approachable, knowledgeable, and always makes sure everyone is working out safely. The gym itself is always very clean and smells good! Lastly, there is a sense of togetherness and support when you go to this gym. The workouts are challenging but not impossible. Anyone can do this!

Fantastic experience: Guerilla fitness is such an amazing friendly supportive community , coaches are really dedicated to helping your goals who are also knowledgeable . Location is also maintained to a very high standard of cleanliness and well organized. I have experienced other fitness/gym locations nothing comes close to their staff knowledge and skill set!!

Fantastic experience: These are some of my favorite qualities about this gym: 1. The hygienic standards are noteworthy and more than meet the guidelines of CDC especially because the members are almost 10 ft apart in distance from each other, regulatory temperature checks, and sterilized equipment. 2. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable in their given fields of nutrition & Crossfit and are more than happy to answer any questions I've asked in length and detail despite my membership being standard. I can only imagine what type of training I'd receive if I supplemented my membership with extra training services the gym provides. 3. One of the owners is actually a coach at this gym. I only discovered this through passing despite taking an innumerable amount of his classes & it really shows the level of humility in this gym and his passion for Crossfit. I even heard that he gets coffee for his members before class, I have never experienced it as of yet so I don't know if I should make a list of the things I don't like....lol I'm Just Kidding ;) 4. Student Discount. I was previously loyal to Orange Theory for over 2 years and they didn't offer any similar discounts. I'm a student at Rutgers now but graduated from Bergen Community College. I think Orange Theory didn't give discounts to Community College students. This gym never asked what college I went to and accepted my status as a student regardless of whether or not the school I attend is at the Community or State level. 5. How my body feels after a class at this gym. Being accustomed to the OT, as I had previously mentioned, I was doing a lot of intense cardio. After my OT workouts I often felt very wired and I wasn't used to the weightlifting that this gym focuses on. The use of a bar was completely foreign to me. As my body started getting used lifting weights and supporting my body under a bar I felt more confident and aware of what the human body is actually capable of. Ex: I can feel my arms supporting my abdomen while it works to bring my knees to my chest. Also the experience of progress as I had worked towards in technique and the ability to put on more weight on the bar has really helped my self confidence. After a Crossfit class I feel more leveled than I did after a class at OT. Doing OT classes I constantly felt that I was battling weight gain to maintain my ideal weight in order to look a certain way. Doing Crossfit has completely changed my goal in working out by focusing on techniques so I can lift heavier. Although OT is back open & much closer to my residence but I'd rather travel a further distance to get the benefits of Crossfit than drive a shorter distance to attend a class provided by Orange Theory. I've also been a member of Equinox, TMPL, & Soul cycle in NYC and attended classes all over Manhattan. I find the benefits of CrossFit Guerrilla to surpass NYC level classes. TMPL, Equinox, Soul cycle, and Orange Theory are run like businesses that equates the individual member to the US dollar and the owners of these gyms I found are talked about by the members like some kind of entrepreneurial magnate/demigod that no one ever sees...So it was a really nice change to see a gym owner that actually teaches classes and actually has the passion & knowledge in regards to fitness & nutrition, and wants to see his members happy & progress in their goals. 6. My goal is to have a good work out but getting to know the good people that work to keep the gym clean & provide fitness services & classes for their members is a huge unexpected benefit. TLDR; Reasons to join the gym: Sanitary standards that go beyond the CDC guidelines, indiscriminate student discounts, knowledgeable coaches & owner who answers all questions in lengths & detail regarding nutrition & fitness (or any question you have), an awesome owner who is actually passionate about Crossfit & makes an effort to develop a relationship with all members and treats his members like a person instead of a dollar, more beneficial to the body than other fitness memberships I've experienced, & amazing staff & coaches.

Fantastic experience: By far the BEST CrossFit Coaches around. Guerrilla provides an environment where all fitness levels are welcome, encouraging its members to find personal success and progression. The member community quickly becomes a family who offers encouragement and support.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at Guerrilla for just about a year. I have tried many gyms in my lifetime and this by far is #1 ! The first day I was greeted 'happily' by Deb and Joe, who are amazingly friendly and knowledgeable on all aspects of fitness. And every day after always greeted by the awesome friendly staff. The gym itself may be cleaner than my house ! The work outs are thoroughly taught. There is a specific warm up each day, practice, then the workout. Members at Guerrilla are friendly and I really feel part of a family. I recently competed in the 2019 Open. Friday Night Lights is an amazing experience at Guerrilla. I'm not a heavy lifter and have probably done 1 Rx WOD, but it doesn't matter, everyone cheers everyone ! Love this place !

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Guerrilla Paramus for over 5 months. Fell in love with the workouts since the moment I stepped in. The coaches are very knowledgeable; they walk you through mechanics, and pay attention to your moves so you don’t get injured. The coaches motivate you and push you to complete your workout. The place is very clean [Thanks Joe :) ], there is outdoor parking, clean bathrooms, and tons of toys to break the sweat. I highly recommend Guerrilla Fitness Paramus, and do not be afraid of CrossFit (you can scale workouts). Gym atmosphere is great, you will be surrounded by members that make you feel like family and will also motivate you to complete your workout. There is nothing better than someone telling you “you got this…”

Fantastic experience: Been going to Guerrilla Paramus for years and would never go anywhere else! Top notch facility that's always kept immaculate and organized. Coaches are extremely knowledgeable and easily approachable. They are always willing to answer questions and help out in whatever capacity. HIGHLY recommend for any fitness level!

Fantastic experience: Been going to Geurrilla CF in Paramus for over two years and it is an amazing place to begin your fitness journey as well as progress as far as you want to take it. The coaches are knowledgeable, caring and meticulous paying close attention to beginners and experienced athletes alike and the box is spacious, clean, comfortable and loaded with all the equipment you would hope to find in a box. Can't say enough good things about this place. It's not a gym, it's a family.

Fantastic experience: I've been around a few boxes throughout these past few years but this box is hands down the most organized, well ran, cleanest one I've ever been a part of. Classes are always packed but would never impede someone from participating because the facility is huge. All the coaches are attentive, knowledgeable, and even take class with you as if they were a regular member when they’re not coaching. Overall, the gym is great on all aspects!

Fantastic experience: I recently joined Guerrilla Fitness Crossfit after many years at another box. I was very apprehensive at first as I was already part of a community and family with my old box. Due to changes in my life I knew I had to make a move.. As soon as I walked through the doors of Guerilla Crossfit everyone made me feel right at home. ALL the coaches are spot on with their training and encouraging of all levels and modifications. This definitely has been a great transition and an awesome BOX!!! Special thanks to Deb Meyers - client manger who has encouraged me throughout this process!!

Fantastic experience: Great coaches always trying to help their members improve. Very welcoming and comfortable environment even when being brand new to CrossFit. I love the community they’ve built and so glad to be a part of it!

Fantastic experience: When I moved to the north jersey I tried out multiple crossfits and honestly Guerilla is the BEST. As a college athlete I fell in love with Crossfit and after graduating I was drawn to the team dynamic and olympic lifting style that Crossfit has to offer. For a little over the six months I have been attending Guerilla I have seen improvements in my strength, my form and all around strength. The coaching is phenomenal and the coaches are very attentive and they are invested in every single athlete no matter what your experience or background. The coaches have broken some of my bad lifting habits that was overlooked by my D1 coaches while in college and it really just goes to show how professional and well-trained they all are. I've been to other Crossfit gyms where there are cliques and the coaches don't give it 110% and I am happy to say Guerilla is NOT one of those gyms. Try it and you will love it!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of this gym for over 9 months, but wanted to visit at least one other CrossFit gym before writing my review. What can I say? There is no place like home! From the moment I started my first class, until now there is a friendly and family like atmosphere. The positive energy and encouragement one receives makes working out fun and going to the gym not a chore! The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and are very attentive to ensure proper form, safety and that each member gets the most out of their time in the gym. The gym itself is clean and neat and they offer a wide range of classes. I highly recommend Guerrilla CrossFit Paramus for anyone looking to get into or stay in shape.

Fantastic experience: Guerrilla Fitness Crossfit Paramus helped me to become a better physical fit person. The coaching staff Is impeccable, their dedication to excellence is outstanding, and their care and concern for each member is genuinely noted in their instructions of each WOD. A fantastic place to get started and a fabulous place to call home!

Fantastic experience: Today I did 36 bar muscle ups. Less than a year ago I couldn’t do any. Can’t say enough good things about the gym. Coaches are the best, encouraging and supportive. Wods are challenging, sometimes too much so. The facility is always squeaky clean. But most importantly, I really value the relationships more than everything else, even more than the muscle ups.

Fantastic experience: Guerrilla Fitness Paramus is not just a CrossFit gym, it’s a family and a second home. The knowledge, skills & experience of the coaches and staff are what makes this place amazing. Whether you are going for your first class ever or have been a member for years- you will feel comfortable and welcome. The coaches make sure you not only learn the foundations of safe and proper exercise, but they are by your side to coach you as you grow and develop through your fitness journey. The facilities are beautiful, modern and spotless. They provide a changing room with showers and other great amenities. I could not reccomend a better facility for fitness and community than Guerrilla Fitness Paramus.

Fantastic experience: This gym is clean. It doesn't smell like a gym and there is lots of natural light. The staff of coaches makes it even more special. Even though I'm older (68) than most of the other people who workout, I feel at home. I get the same attention from the coaches that every one else gets. I've lost nearly thirty pounds since starting a year ago. The routines vary so much that it never gets boring and the coaches make sure that I'm not over doing it. They don't want me to get hurt which is cool by me. Great gym!

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out, the coaches are super knowledgeable and welcoming, the facility is spotless and equipment is well maintained! I look forward to my workouts here! Definitely a great atmosphere all around! I Guerrilla!

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great workout and great facility! There is nothing better than knowing you just have to show up and you will get a fantastic workout every time - high intensity & extremely safe.

Fantastic experience: Top notch gym with such knowledgeable coaches who truly care about you and your goals (and care about preventing injuries). Truly a family atmosphere where everyone knows everyone’s names. Not to mention the gym is kept super clean! The classes are for all fitness levels, and there’s always an option to modify any workout without feeling like anyone judges you. I love it here and wouldn’t want to go anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing. The coaches are top-notch, and always making sure you are doing things safely and get the most out of the workout. Incredible workouts, family atmosphere and immaculately clean.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of GF since it first opened and have been very happy with the staff, facility, and equipment. It is larger and cleaner than your typical cross-fit gym with a large amount of focus on its members and their capabilities. No matter what your age or fitness level is, there will always be some variation that can be done of what may appear to be a difficult and/or intimidating movement or workout. The facility itself is impressive w/ its large parking lot, large workout area, comfortable rest area, showers, changing rooms, clean bathrooms, and locker area. Members and staff embrace the family mentality and its very clear that many long lasting relationships are formed whether its over a barbell or brunch after a Sunday AM workout!

Fantastic experience: I think it would be hard to find anyone who doesn't give Guerilla Fitness five stars. Awesome gym with great people, both the coaches and customers. Workouts are amazing. I never leave without feeling like I got a workout that was worth every penny.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, coaches are very helpful and care about your improvement. It's kept really clean which is nice when you have movements that require you to be in the floor.

Fantastic experience: This gym is amazing !!! The coaches know your name, other members cheer you on, and the gym is always clean. I have never been more motivated to workout since joining guerilla fitness Paramus. I love it.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for a little over a year and can attest to the gym’s consistently great coaching. They’re all attentive, active and knowledgeable. It’s also extremely well kept (almost as if it’s just opened) and the overall culture is warm and welcoming to members and athletes of all levels. Couldn’t ask for more! ☺️

Fantastic experience: I’ve been at Guerrilla for a little over a year and I couldn’t be more happier! From day one everyone has been welcoming! The coaches are very knowledgeable and are always willing to share their knowledge whether they are working out or coaching a class. I’ve PR’d in more ways that I could have ever imagined in the short time I’ve been at Guerrilla! By far one of the best and cleanest Crossfit gyms I’ve been to! The best part for me is the community I love coming to class and catching up with everyone. I also like the fact that they are always providing us with different ways to modify a workout if you feel like you can’t do certain movements and giving you tips on how to get you to do those certain movements next time around . Another favorite part of mine at Guerrilla is their mobility class Deb G is amazing!! Overall I cant say enough good things about Guerrilla, Joe and his coaches are all amazing! If you want to feel challenged and meet great people come try out a class at Guerrilla Fitness Paramus!

Fantastic experience: Where do I start, this gym is what I think about when I think of the perfect gym. This gym has awesome energy and knowledge that you get from the coaches here, they are eager to help and will to take time with you. The classes are intense for every level athlete. I have developed new life long relationships with my co-members as well. I have been coming for a little over 2 years and happy to be apart of the Guerilla Family :)

Fantastic experience: I joined GF a little over a month ago and I have nothing but positive things to say about this gym thus far! I am so glad I decided to join because CrossFit always scared me but intrigued me at the same time. The gym itself is very clean. I am ALWAYS greeted by a smile, whether from another member or a coach in the building. Throughout the workouts, people keep you encouraged and keep you pushing through whether they know you or not. The coaches are great and know their stuff. They really care about their members, how they move and offer that one on one attention you may need all while coaching in a group setting which is not something all coaches are able to do with a gym their size. I never felt like I was lost doing an exercise/movement. They want you to get the movements right and they work with you until you do. Their dedication, passion and care for their members is a true testament to the kind of people they are and the mission/vision of GF. Go Guerillas!

Fantastic experience: Such an encouraging and friendly atmosphere. Amazing and helpful coaching staff. I participate in high school sports and working out at Guerrilla has benefitted me greatly and I am an overall better athlete because of it.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place to get a phenomenal workout among friends! The coaches are the absolute best...attentive, knowledgeable and offer up the right amount of motivation to beget your best self. Best part of my day is at Guerrilla :)

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at Guerrilla Paramus for only four months yet it feels like home! Since the first day I stepped foot in this gym, I was welcomed with open arms. Between the community, camaraderie, results, energy, and motivation...Guerrilla Paramus is so much more than a gym. All of the coaches are excellent as they provide expertise, genuine care, and motivation. Each workout can be tailored to your needs and abilities, but the coaches and fellow Guerrillas will continually push you to improve, try new things, and achieve your goals. The workouts push you outside of your comfort zone and improve both your physical and mental toughness. The parking is plenty, and the gym itself is clean, organized, and well maintained.

Fantastic experience: Guerilla Fitness is one of my favorite places to be! Clean and spacious facility! Great workouts that are challenging but also can be scaled for any level of fitness. The coaches and staff are so kind and super helpful. Starting a new gym can be intimidating for anyone but not here. Members and staff are welcoming, supportive, and we all cheer each other on. One big happy family!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for 4 months now. I have never enjoyed working out as much as I have had at Guerilla. The coaches make you feel like you have been a part of the gym for years. The facility is huge and always kept extremely clean. You do not need any experience to start. The experience is given to you by the incredibly knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend Guerrilla Fitness Paramus.

Fantastic experience: Love this Gym..trainers are wonderful and so helpful..I never stepped foot in a crossfit gym and it was intimidating for me at first but the trainers helped me through every step! The staff and all the people there are very friendly and it's a great atmosphere! Highly reccomend!

Fantastic experience: Guerrilla has become my second home in the 2 years I've been a member. The coaches and staff are phenomenal and truly want to bring out the best in every single member. I have a few injuries I have to work around and they always provide me with smart (injury preventing) options for scaling workouts so that I can still get the right stimulus and a great workout without risking an injury. Additional classes (Olympic lifting, stretch and core, shoulder prehab, endurance, nutrition counseling, etc) allow members additional opportunities not typically found at a Crossfit gym to make us all well-rounded athletes. Other members are super welcoming and supportive of everyone because we are #bettertogether. I have become the strongest I've ever been since joining Guerrilla and look forward to many more PRs! Bonus amenities: 2 (very clean) showers on site, healthy snacks and recovery drinks are available for purchase after a workout, Kettlebell Kitchen does twice weekly deliveries and we have access to a farm share with delivery straight to the gym

Fantastic experience: Best Crossfit gym in Bergen County! Such amazing programming, community, and the coaches truly care about you and your goals. Cultured atmosphere, and the gym is always clean & tidy! I love it here and wouldn’t want workout anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: I've been a been a member at Guerrilla for about a year. I have enjoyed every second of it! The community and coaches become a family to you. Everyone gives you the motivation to push yourself to improve daily. I walk out with a smile and feeling better each time.The gym is extremely clean and a great facility.

Fantastic experience: With the saturation of crossfit gyms in north jersey, GF stands out among the rest. From the community, to the coaching, the attention, and the cleanliness, no other gym can compare. Ive been a part of GF for almost 5 years now and am happy to call it my second home!
