CrossFit® Bolster: Opinions

5/5 (17 Opinions)
Kurt Brendley 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best crossfit gym in metro detroit. Brad is an excellent coach. If you are new or have been going to crossfit since you were a toddler, then this place is perfect for you.

Fantastic experience: I am hands down in the best shape of my life thanks to CrossFit and CrossFit Bolster. Brad, owner and head trainer, is awesome. He's educated, motivating, emaphsizes safety, and helps you find your real potential. Add to that a culture of friendliness, no ego, and hard work by awesome members....I can't imagine a better place to train. CrossFit Bolster started out great and is only getting better.

Fantastic experience: An excellent atmosphere for training, whether you’re looking to compete or just be better than the day before. Brad and CrossFit Bolster have reenergized my interest in fitness. Brad produces results, but not at the expense of a safety-first or proper-form mentality. Regardless of your skill level, Brad’s approach is welcoming and effective for all.

Fantastic experience: Professional facility with a well rounded, experienced, nationally certified personal trainer and cross-fit certified owner. Athlete or beginner, Brad will help you get where you want to be, and will do if safely. If you live in the area, full endorsement.

Fantastic experience: I came to Bolster as a CrossFit beginner and there are so many good things about this place. The way it’s more of a community, the continuous support and guidance from knowledgeable and experienced coaches, and the way the workouts are more challenging than anything I’ve ever done. Couldn’t recommend it more!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Bolster is an amazing place to be! Brad, the owner, has created an amazing community. All of the coaches bring good energy into the gym and this energy is spread throughout each class. All of the members here are so supportive of each other and understanding that everyone has their own fitness journey. I have never been in a gym where a coach is so understanding of the importance of scaling to an individuals ability in order for that person to achieve the desired stimulus from a workout. I recommend this gym to anyone looking to start crossfit or improve their fitness! You will not regret checking this place out!

Fantastic experience: What creates an environment where you feel supported is community. In my experience that starts with the person who opens a CrossFit gym and their motivation behind it. CrossFit bolster and the community support Brad has created is by far the best I have experienced! I stand by this 1000% come in, take a class, if you don’t feel the same, ask for me! Let’s talk I don’t like most things and only review if stand by my experience!

Fantastic experience: I love this place, and feel like not even 5 stars is enough. The coaches, atmosphere, equipment, and all other athletes are all amazing. The absolute only way I’d leave this gym is if I move away from the area, and that’d be a sad day.

Fantastic experience: I truly enjoy working out at Crossfit Bolster! It's not only the owner and his wife (Brad and Katie) that makes this box great, it's the people that make up the classes. Most everyone is super friendly and helpful. There's a great level of competitiveness mixed with cheering others on. I've tried a few other gyms from LA fitness in Royal Oak to CF boxes in Indy and Dallas, however at CF Bolster, you know you're going to have a great workout every time with good people!

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Brad the owner is very helpful teaching you all the new movements and is encouraging throughout every workout. CrossFit has managed to test my body to new limits. It took a year to convince myself to join, but I am glad a finally did.

Fantastic experience: Bolster is a welcoming place, and Brad is an awesome dude. Very friendly, yet still challenging.

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a gym where you can phone in your workout and become a nameless face in the crowd, Bolster is NOT for you. However, if you're ready to push your limits, grow as an athlete, and incorporate fitness as a lifestyle, join us! Yes, this is more expensive than joining Planet Fitness. There's a reason. Brad and the other trainers will know your name, know your weaknesses, and push you beyond what you would push for yourself. You'll get stronger, faster, and tougher. Think of it as an investment in yourself and in your health! The community at CrossFit Bolster is tight knit and a lot of fun. We work hard and play hard with lots of out of the gym activities for our members: rock climbing, holiday parties, and cooking classes have all been on our social calendars this year. Joining Bolster is definitely joining a group of like-minded, fun people who are friends beyond seeing each other a couple times a week at the gym.
