Equis Fitness: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym 3 months ago and I’m glad I did. It’s a community of varied ages, Latino cultures and classes. This is conveniently close to home/work so I can workout during my lunch time. The classes are challenging and coaches are receptive to your needs for modifications if needed. My favorite instructor is Luis Rafael who spices things up, motivates you and provides you with feedback on body alignment for the given strength exercises. Come as you are and you will be very welcomed by the diverse diaspora that makes up this gym!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and great people! The class sizes are smaller so you get more one-on-one coaching and the community is fun and filled with incredible athletes. The coaches and staff are friendly, welcoming, and push you to be the best athlete you can be every class. Cannot recommend this gym enough!

Fantastic experience: Did a little boxing my earlier days, But to be honest I’m extremely content I went with cross fit. Everyone at the gym has a down to earth personality. If you want a place that feels like home, this is it right here. P.S. it’s a challenge but as long as you stick to it you’ll be happier with yourself for not giving up. Try it !

Fantastic experience: Great gym, great trainers, and a kind and considerate community. Trainers try to tailor experience to each individual, but maintain a sense of camaraderie and community at the same time!

Fantastic experience: This is a gem! Great spot with all the toys. Friendly coaches, rigorous programming, and a welcoming community. I’ve an avid/active CrossFit’er and this is among the better boxes I’ve belonged to or dropped in at. The price is reasonable, the facility is clean and well equipped, and the people are cool. I’m proud to say there’s CrossFit in the South Bronx.

Fantastic experience: I found this place after looking at a Brooke Ence YouTube video and have never looked back. I finally lost the 20 pounds and gained the strength I was looking for. Everyone is very professional, kind and caring. The community is very encouraging too. I look forward to coming to Equis everyday.

Fantastic experience: Ok, so I started attending Equis fitness in October of 2020 and it's been fantastic! Before that I was working out at home and with one of their personal trainers. They are very detailed not only with the fitness regime but with sustenance which includes expectations vs reality. What impressed me the most is the positive mindset, the constant communication, and precise coaching critiques. It's not about finishing the workout - its about doing it right. I have made a lot of progress and feel great physically and mentally. I highly recommend them for their professionalism and coaching. 6 STARS!

Mahmoud Maamoun 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Really great place to get your fitness. Coaches are very supportive and since the beginning of Corona we have been assigned a coach to keep track of our progress and give feedback. I used to train in Manhattan's ICE gym and paid almost double but didn't get anywhere near what Equis is offering in terms of quality, service and the social aspect.

Fantastic experience: Giving this gym 5 star because 100 isn’t an option. I’ve been attending CrossFit equis since August, and my first impression was how big the space is. Upon arrival the front desk gives the gym earthy-rustic vibes, the floor has a beautiful blue glossy look, and the bathrooms OMG! I have a photo shoot after my workouts. This gym is very diverse in ethnicities, the gym has a lot to offer apart from group fitness trainers they have personal trainers, nutritionist and physical therapist which is great to help those accomplish their goals accordingly. One of my favorite things of this gym is the diversity in movements you will go through in one workout. Everyday you can expect something new, which will keep things interesting. Also, the atmosphere is amazing because everyone genuinely loves working out and motivating one another. I really love this place and I hope it keeps growing.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been Crossfitting for roughly 3 years and this is one of the most thorough Boxes I’ve been too. The Coaches always make sure your form is correct and they really push you to give your all on every single WOD. What I love most about this box is that they really encourage everyone to keep track of their gains and accomplishments. Which can be loss so easily if you’re not mindful. Also everyone is super friendly and approachable which I love.

Fantastic experience: First, let me start by saying I never write reviews!!!!! A-1! This studio/gym/fitness oasis has more than exceeded my expectations! I have been a member at just about every gym in the city and have tried many crossfit studios. The trainers, the community of members, the space itself is so inviting. Pre workout not needed when you step into this place!!! The gym is bursting with energy. Expect to get pushed, cheered and celebrated at CrossFit Equis. Literally one of the best things that has happened to the South Bronx. Convenient, clean, and get this, they have showers!!!!!!!! Membership fees are a steal for all that you get here. Don’t believe me. Go see for yourself.

Fantastic experience: The Coaches, Staff and the members are reasons why I keep going back. For every good workout Equis cooks up for us, it’s good to know that you’ll have FAMILY there to keep pushing you. If you’re looking for somewhere where respect and attention to detail in your movements are important then Equis is the place to be.

Irving Jimenez 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great introduction to the fitness lifestyle. The coaches care about your progression not just lifting big. They ensure your workouts are tailored to your skill level and keep it challenging. Along with nutrition/diet plans, rehab sessions and the amazing community, there is no gym quite like it. I love this place and always find myself sticking around after a workout to hang.

Angeline D 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful facility with amazing coaches and staff! Always positive and helpful. They are extremely knowledgeable and understand that everyone is different and accommodating the WoDs to make sure that you feel confident in your movements and progress. From the owners Vanderpool and Glenn being on top of everyone, to the the coaches Sean, Kevin, Jen, and Lauren working tirelessly and with a positive attitude to get everyone on track and having a good time while you work extremely hard. The front staff is always very helpful, Kellyand Mayra are awesome!! Highly recommended!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience this last year with all the coaches (Glenn, Jose, Jen & Sean) and the Equis family. Equis is a welcoming space regardless of your level/knowledge of CrossFit (and regardless of your gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, size, etc). I was excited to take classes here and never felt unsafe with the WODs (you are able to adjust weights and regimen to your own comfort/ability and the coaches are with you 100% along the way). The facilities are also very clean and well maintained. There’s plenty of classes you can take and my favorite part was that each one focused on a different section (or sections) of the body every day. Never bored, used muscles I never new existed and learned so much about my body/abilities. Special shout out to Sunday classes with Lauren (XHIT)! Great for cardio and tone building :)

Jessica Santiago 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a crossfit member for about 3 to 4 months. This is my second home. Even when I feel like giving up, my mates push me and encourage me to the finish. The coaches work with you every step of the way. If your not comfortable with a movement, they work hard to help accomplish that. Nutrition info is also available. If your looking for a high intensity workout with family, this is the place!

Jose Albarracin 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for a little over a month. I was new to Crossfit and this facility came highly recommended. It lived up to the expectation. I felt welcomed from the moment I completed my on-ramp and felt competent enough to partake in the WODs. What sets this gym apart from other experiences I've had (outside of crossfit) is the community and self-actualization aspect. Participants join you in the workouts and as they say, "misery loves company" and the camaraderie afterwards is beyond satisfying. The coaches are knowledge, the space clean and equipped with everything you need. If you've tried crossfit or are curious to try it for the first time, check out Crossfit Equis!

Fantastic experience: Super clean best coaches in the Bronx and a real family community and great atmosphere! Best CrossFit box i have been too. They get results!

Chelsea Estrella 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Equis is an amazing box. The box itself is new, clean, neat, and the decor is uplifting and motivating. The coaches are there for their members in every sense; they push you hard but to your specific limit, they modify WODs to accommodate your needs, and they are professional. CrossFit Equis is passionate about promoting a healthy lifestyle and bringing that mentality to the Bronx. Immediately this place becomes more than just a gym, they become family. Definitely would recommend this box!

Keep up the good work!!
