The Fort Fitness

Fantastic experience: I simply cannot say enough good things about OPEX Hampstead. My journey here began in January after the gym made a large transition from mostly Crossfit training to individualized training through OPEX. The support here is overwhelming, from both the main coaches as well as every member that works out with me inside the gym. The atmosphere here is nothing less than warm and fuzzy, as you see the same faces all the time! These coaches believe in you, work with you, adapt with you and support you in ways I can hardly describe. Personally, when I had to change my work out schedule while I was finishing nursing school, my coach worked with me to make sure I was still able to get my exercise time in and adapt my workouts accordingly. Training at OPEX has not only helped me achieve some of my fitness goals, but also helped me to manage nutrition, stress and time management too. The individual design of my program and workouts changes frequently according to my needs, which I LOVE. My coaches are always giving feedback to help me tailor movements and make sure I am getting the most out of every workout. From my own personal fitness achievements, to the coaching, to the family I have made here, I cannot begin to express my gratitude and appreciation for this gym!

Fantastic experience: I've always had trouble going to the gym, but Ashely and Kyle have really helped me stick with a program. It's made a huge difference to me to have a coach. Ashely has developed a program designed just for me, and has motivated me to make huge improvements in my fitness! OPEX Hampstead is an amazing place.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend OPEX Hampstead! I've participated in my fair share of exercise/training from Crossfit, small group training and on my own at BSC or Planet Fitness, OPEX is by far my favorite. Coach Kyle and Ashley are great to work with, extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help. Kyle creates all of my work outs to be tailored around the results I want and provides nutrition guidance to fit my lifestyle, is why OPEX is so effective. Do yourself a favor and go check it out!

Fantastic experience: In our first meeting the trainers said "just show up and 90%of the work is done. And we will help you change your life". I've lifted weights on and off since I was 14. Now 30 years later I am blown away at the difference it makes to train with the people at the fort. By far the best experience I've ever had in a gym. If you're nervous to go in. Just do it. You will be glad you did. Everyone there is going to make you comfortable and excited about your journey into fitness.

Fantastic experience: Kyle (the owner) and his coaches represent all of the best that CrossFit has to offer, without any of the negative pressure that is often associated with the sport. By encouraging athletes to challenge themselves and each other, while understanding their own limits, they get the best from every member. I highly recommend this box to anyone who is interested in pursuing CrossFit or better health in general.
