Fantastic experience: Great community here! Joined two months ago and have loved it. Give it a week to warm up to the group. Everyone is friendly, some more then other after they get to know you haha. Workouts are definitely hard and having an open gym almost all day is a great feature not all CrossFit gyms participate in. You can get strong really quick if you stick to the programming and with proper diet you would easily lose weight here. Fun interesting workouts lots of motivation. Children are allowed at the gym, also friendly dogs occasionally. Sad I will be leaving next week due to PCS. Really wish I could stay longer! Enjoy

Fantastic experience: Started training here about a month ago. I immediately liked the atmosphere. The trial process was smooth and the owner was accessible and provided a great introduction to Crossfit. I have had experience with weightlifting but had not tried some of the olympic lifts involved with certain workouts. The coaches all were very knowledgable, walked me through the workouts, provided form tips for improvement and pushed me in every workout. Though the coaches pushed me, they always focused on form over weight and I never felt like I was pressured to do more than I can handle. Very professional. Additionally, the other members of the gym have been very friendly and welcoming. Everyone is incredibly supportive of one another and the positive attitude is definitely something I enjoy. Its a great community of people who come to train hard and have respect for one another. Finally, the use of technology in the form of reserving spots in class, seeing what workouts are upcoming, and access to apps for tracking progress and improving mobility is a great aspect that I enjoy a lot more than I thought I would. I fully recommend Crossfit Forward.

Fantastic experience: Just started CrossFit and it’s a wonderful experience. Being former military, I’ve missed the Camaraderie and I seem to get that with this gym. Everyone talks trash about crossfit saying it’s too hard, it’s for psychos and you’ll get injured a lot. I beg to differ. I have multiple musculoskeletal injuries from the military and I use crossfit as my functional fitness training for improving. It’s helping more than personal training at other gyms. It’s more effective and I can feel the muscle returning. The staff is always there to help and guide you through it at no extra cost. Normally for what they provide it costs upwards of $80 per hour. This place makes me feel at home! I love it.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Forward is not only a Workout facility it will become your family. A great place to work out and after the WOD you will find it hard to leave because of all the positive energy that the coach’s and athletes there have. Love the gym and could not see myself anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I've only been attending Forward for a few months, but I already feel at home. Everyone is incredibly friendly and makes you feel as though you're part of the forward family instantly! It doesn't matter what fitness level you're at, the coaches are super helpful and go out of their way to make sure you reach your goals. HIGHLY recommend!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Forward is truly my happy place. The coaches are amazing and every single one genuinely cares about you as a person, not just how much weight is on the bar or how fast you are. You cannot beat the family atmosphere no matter what time you attend. Best box in Fredericksburg, hands down!!

Melinda Ellett 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Other boxes are just that...a place to get great coaching and a great workout. CF Forward is like working out at home...with family and support that is unparalleled in the area. Having been other places... I know that home is where I belong. Good for the mind, body, heart and soul. Come as you are and become who you are meant to be. #fowardisfamily
