CrossFit^® West Lafayette

Fantastic experience: CrossFit West Lafayette has moved into a bigger location right across the parking lot from our roots at Universal Fitness. We have more trainers, more space, more classes, more equipment, and more fun....but it would be hard to love CrossFit more than we always did. For the best, most comprehensive, fitness program ever created, drop in for a WOD and discover what millions are raving about! We are the Fittest on the Planet!

Fantastic experience: Been going for about 6 years now. Great community. If you’re thinking about CrossFit, it’s not just people throwing weight around like maniacs. The coaches here make sure you have proper technique before you start adding weight and they always prioritize safety. This enables all levels of athletes from beginners to experts, young and old, competitive and non-competitive. There are college students, parents with full time jobs, and even retired folks that are pushing 80 years old all working out in classes together encouraging each other. The part about CrossFit that people don’t recognize is that you grow close to the members at your gym. Yes, the price may be more than a normal gym. But the community is priceless. The folks here are friends I hope to keep for a lifetime.

Fantastic experience: This is an amazing gym with a great community! Coming to CFWL always brightens my day!

Fantastic experience: I cannot rave about this gym enough! I have been at CrossFit West Lafayette since August 2022 and I have never felt so confident in myself and the strength I have. The coaching staff is incredibly kindhearted and provides constant encouragement throughout the entire class. Each class is full of energy and no matter who the coach is, he/she make sure to offer plenty of options whether you are a beginner or advance CrossFitter. I have been to numerous gyms throughout my time, and CrossFit West Lafayette will always be the one that change my physical and mental perspective for the good.

Fantastic experience: I started crossfit in July and was a little intimidated to start! After finding CrossFit West Lafayette I don't think I could have found a better place! Everyone has been so nice and the coaches really know what they are doing! I look forward to going to class everyday!

Fantastic experience: Love this place. The coaches are very knowledgeable and always ready to help. The community is amazing and so friendly.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member of Cross Fit West Lafayette for 4 years and love it. Great programming, knowledgeable coaches, and fantastic community. Highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: I have been training at this gym for two years and a half now, I go about 5 days a week unless I am traveling. I love the community. Training with my friends everyday is a lot of fun. The programming and coaching staff are excellent. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Getting stronger, improved fitness and staying injury free. Great coaching, fun atmosphere and an amazing tribe of supportive, like minded people! My happy place! The best hour of my day!

Fantastic experience: What a great gym… awesome morning class with a bunch of great attitudes, especially being 5:15 in the morning. Chad was a friendly and knowledgeable coach who took time to go over workouts and proper form.

Fantastic experience: Great community to workout in a safe space guided by amazing coaches! A variety of programming/movements help train different body parts/muscles. Whether you are a beginner, pro athlete or never heard about CrossFit come step into the CFWL community and relax by working out with a great bunch of folks!

Fantastic experience: The best part about this place is the community. While some places are just set up to show up, work out and leave, CFWL cares about you and welcomes you to a community that is nurturing and challenges you to be your best self. There is no judgment. It doesn’t matter what fitness level you are or what you look like. They welcome you and work with you to make sure you have the best experience in a healthy way.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to CFWL for a little over a year now and I love it! I look forward to going to class everyday. Holly and Allen have built a great community here that will make you feel welcome no matter your ability level.

Fantastic experience: By far the best crossfit gym in West Lafayette! Allen and Holly are the best, as well as the rest of the coaches. They know how to create a friendly and motivational environment. Great atmosphere with great people to workout!!!

Fantastic experience: Loved being apart of this community and wished I joined earlier! As a student, staying active and building a community was really important to me. Everyone was encouraging and built each other up -- even the 6:30am class was energetic and ready to tackle the day! While I typically went to the 6:30am class and got to know everyone there, whenever I needed to adjust my scheudle and attend a different session, there was always someone I could talk to or partner up with. 11/10 would recommend to anyone looking into a gym in the West Lafayette/Lafayette area!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in while I was in town, coaches were great. They modified everything for my current abilities and the community was very welcoming in. Will definitely recommend and will stop by again.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym last August, Coming from another CrossFit type facility. Everyone in this gym is friendly and positive. The coaching staff are all very knowledgeable, positive, motivating and fun. I love that there are open gym times and a nutrition coach. I recently added on the nutrition program. I am learning so much and it is making a big difference in my workouts and my every day life. I am 58 soon to be 59. I have a partial knee replacement, a bum shoulder and vertigo. I have always been a runner until my knee replacement and I was told not to be a long distance runner. I was devastated. I was told I could pick anything but running. I picked CrossFit after trying many things. I have been doing CrossFit since 11/2018. I was hooked. Now I have found a super supportive community and home in CFWL!!! The owners and coaches work hard for our community every day. I am proof that anyone can do CrossFit. Call CFWL and give it a try!!!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a class this AM. Not sure if I’ll ever have a reason to be in West Lafayette again, but if I am this will be the place I work out. All the coaches and members were awesome.

Fantastic experience: Good, welcoming place.

Fantastic experience: I attended this gym for two years and loved every minute of it. There is a culture of togetherness and camaraderie here. The strength and conditioning programming is unbelievable and so is the coaching. If you are thinking about joining a gym, this should be your first visit.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to this gym for just over a year now and have nothing but good things to say about it. If you're looking for a gym that welcomes you like family and champions you through your journey, this is it.This is a place where the coaches care about your overall wellness, they remember your injuries and hang ups and help you move at your own pace. I promise if you show up consistently not only will you fall in love with this place but you'll see the changes you were expecting, see changes you didn't know could even happen and find a whole new you.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out here for a few months. The coaches are great and everyone is so welcoming! One big family to make one another better

Fantastic experience: Great place for working out. Friendly and nice staff

Fantastic experience: Starting classes soon and everyone is so friendly!

Fantastic experience: I have been working out here on and off for several years. Great environment!

Fantastic experience: Nice and cheap

Fantastic experience: I have doing CrossFit for some time and I found out it is the best to be in shape and have a balanced life style. I have tried another box, but I have came back again to CrossFit West Lafayette's box because of the training ambient and the community.

Fantastic experience: Good community and good workouts served fresh daily. I’ve been able to drop in a few times on short notice and not disappointed.

Fantastic experience: At CFWL they focus holistic approach with everyone who comes in. It’s not about the PRs (which are nice to see), it’s about seeing incremental improvement in every aspect of your life. They care about the values and the goals of each athlete who walks in the door. If you want a place to be challeneged, held accountable, built community, and a place that will push you to do work everyday, then CFWL is the place you’re looking for.

Fantastic experience: Love this place, the atmosphere, other athletes and of course the coaches!

Fantastic experience: It's one of the few places were you can actually understand how Community works in CrossFit. All the coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and well prepared.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and the coaches meet you at your ability level. If u want a great workout and a committed Community come here.

Fantastic experience: I could brag all day about my gym. Instead, I will leave 5 stars and encourage everyone to try it out!

Fantastic experience: All around great gym! Dropped in a few times while I was in town for a couple weeks and am glad I did. Fun workouts, friendly environment, and high quality coaching. Can't wait to come back.

Fantastic experience: I've experienced 5 different CrossFit gyms due to traveling for work but I live here in West Lafayette. WL CrossFit is by far the best gym for one reason: The coaches. Barrett, Justin and Jonathan teach the techniques to a wide variety of age, shape and size. Many gyms I've gone to while travlling are only those that accept extreme CrossFitters. The environment is intimidating and not welcoming to newbies. The WL gym is amazing at welcoming new people of age, shape and size and they provide techniques for you to succeed no matter what level you of shape you're in. They treat everyone with the same amount of respect no matter what level you at. CrossFit is intimidating and no matter what gym you choose you will see people that have been this a long time and those people are intimidating :) But remember, they started the same way as everyone else. This is what's fun about Crossfit. If you dive into it and give it time it will change how you look, act and feel. After experiencing a lot of gyms, I assure you the WL coaches are the best that I've seen and they WILL make you feel welcome and safe as you start your journey into the land of CrossFit. Keep up the great work guys!

Fantastic experience: Excellent community, coaching, and facility.

Fantastic experience: The facility lacks nothing, but the people are the best part. Both the trainers and the other workout peeps. There are all skill levels, ages, genders, shapes and sizes in any given day. Welcoming environment for beginners. If you work it, you will get the results you want!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member since 2014, great place for anyone to work out and learn new things. Friendly staff, clean, and lots of different offerings.

Fantastic experience: Sometimes I can walk when I leave

Fantastic experience: Great workouts. Supportive coaches. Neat members. I am enjoying this place.

Fantastic experience: Never a dull moment at cfwl, that's what makes it fun! Be prepared for the unexpected- but there are plenty of nice people to help you through your workouts! Birgit Cabot

Fantastic experience: The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, highly motivated, and awesome people to be around. I've never been in a training session with a better vibe. No matter if your goal is to simply stay fit or to train like an athlete, CFWL has what you're looking for. I have been continuing with them for over 2 months now, and still am as motivated as day one at the box.

Fantastic experience: The people that work out at this gym span a wide range of skill levels and age groups. It's a great group! The workouts are varied and can challenge experienced crossfitters, and are readily scalable for novices. I joined this place in 2015 and didn't know the difference between a squat and a deadlift….but I learned. Ryan Cabot

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for a month now and I love it. Very friendly and well informed trainers. I like the group workout sessions.

Fantastic experience: This gym is baller. The people there are amazing, great location and atmosphere, and the owner is a great guy.

Fantastic experience: Very welcoming, all the members/athletes said hello to me before we started the wod. The facility is extra clean, well taken care of. Very cool building too. Brandon, very knowledgeable and passionate while coaching. I liked it so much I bought a shirt and I will be back again!
