CrossFit^® Vitality

Fantastic experience: I have been doing Crossfit for only 5 months and I also travel a lot for my job, so I try to find Crossfit gyms where ever I go and Crossfit Vitality is where I will be going when I come to Charlotte. I like how they review technical forms before the WOD and they watch everyone’s form during the WOD to ensure safety and prevent injury. The gym is organized and astatically pleasing. I have visited lots of gyms and Vitality is one of the best.

Fantastic experience: I've been working out at Vitality Fitness for the past 13 years alongside my family, and I can honestly say we wouldn't be where we are today without the incredible support and guidance of Steve, Jess Pinkerton, and the entire Vitality team. From the moment we walked through the doors, we were welcomed like family. Steve's dedication to creating a positive and motivating environment is unparalleled. He genuinely cares about each member's fitness journey, constantly pushing us to achieve our best while ensuring we do so safely and effectively. Jess brings an infectious energy to every session, her enthusiasm and expertise making each workout both challenging and enjoyable. The community at Vitality Fitness is second to none. It's more than just a gym; it's a place where we've formed lasting friendships and found unwavering support. The personalized attention, varied workout routines, and continuous encouragement have transformed our lives in ways we never imagined. Thank you, Steve, Jess, and the entire Vitality Fitness team, for being such an integral part of our lives. Here's to many more years of health, fitness, and camaraderie!

Fantastic experience: Love everything about this place.

Fantastic experience: I have finished my 1000th workout this year in Vitality. Time passes so quickly, it feels like I started just two years ago. With so many different gyms and fitness centers available, why choose Vitality? Firstly, they have highly professional and friendly owners. Steve prepares amazing workouts, and both Jess and Steve are passionate about what they do. One thing I love about Vitality is that it caters to people from all walks of life. If you're an elite athlete, you'll find a place to compete, and if you're a beginner, there are plenty of people to help you out. If you prefer long-term cardio and movement without heavy lifting, Evofit is fantastic. But if you want to do weightlifting, then I definitely recommend Vitality CrossFit. What sets Vitality apart from other gyms, in my opinion, is the trust you can have in Steve's programs. Just dedicate one hour of your day and step into Vitality, and you'll see how quickly you'll become stronger and gain more respect for your body. I highly recommend Vitality. Just trust the coaches and commit to a full year without interruption. Afterwards, you won't be able to quit even if you wanted to. And Steve if you read this, “When designing the workouts, please consider our pain."

Fantastic experience: Kelly Bryant has been absolutely amazing with my son. When we started I explained to her what .y son wanted to accomplish as a 16 year old foitball player. She designed a program that would give him the most benefits and I have been nothing less than impressed with his progress and her ability to get the best out of him. I recommend Kelly and Vitality for any and all of your fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: The best facility I've had the pleasure of working out in. Programs and class times for every lifestyle and background, every level. Child care, smoothie bar, wonderful and welcoming community, this spot is it!!

Fantastic experience: Coaches are amazing, classes are awesome. Can't say enough good things about this place. My extended family...

Fantastic experience: This is the finest fitness center in the entire southeast. From CrossFit, to EvoFit (bootcamp), or Personal Training you will not find a better place to be for yourself and your entire family. If someone had told me 10 years ago I would be working out 5 days a week I would of told them they are crazy. Steve and his wife Jess have the best facility I have ever been in and the most dedicated, and professional coaches in the business. No matter where you are at in your exercise journey Vitality is a place that will make you feel like you are at home.

Fantastic experience: Visited from out of town and did a drop in class. Everyone was very welcoming and made me feel right at home. The workout was tough but I thoroughly enjoyed it! The facilities were top notch! I will definitely stop by if I ever come by this way again. Special thanks to Nate for responding to my emails and to Laura for the great coaching!

Fantastic experience: I have been part of Crossfit Vitality (CFV) for 10 years starting there shortly after they opened. I had been running 5-6 days a week for 30 years and was looking for variation in my fitness regimen and wanted more upper body fitness than running provides. My first couple of crossfit classes were a much more physically intense workout then I was used to but felt really good. Immediately I was doing classes on a regular basis. On days I missed I was missing not only the workout but the group I was working out with. I have met more people and made far more friends there then I had anywhere else. The common bond?..we all loved to workout and all wanted to get healthier. I've now started mixing in the Evofit classes, more of a bootcamp. They are in the same gym with a similar schedule. Brent has created a great program and especially good if you are intimidated by putting on gym stuff and going to work out for the first time or first time in a long time. The best thing I have to say about CFV has to do with my initial reservation in going. I was already 50 when I showed up and was worried about being the old guy. Well as you often find out in life everyone has the same concerns, too old, too young, too big, too small, not athletic, terrible shape, et al, whatever messes our heads up and make us feel left out or out of place. Not an issue. The owners of Crossfit Vitality Jess Steve Pinkerton and really great coaches have created a wonderful accepting supportive environment. Everyone welcome, everyone accepted. We all just want to get healthy and in better shape. Doesn't matter if you're a EX NFL player or 30 year couch potato 100 pounds overweight...come in, join the group. I'm giving a great review because I love the place and the people there.

Positive experience: Great atmosphere from the members and knowledgeable staff! There are a lot of challenges to face with crossfit, so don't be intimidated by it but try it here if curious. They did help me in starting off as a novice to the sport when transitioning from a traditional workout. I would recommend Evofit classes for a while if you are new. It will help you improve on endurance and get acustomed. One on one training does help as well but open your budget to more spending if you are going to be that committed and clinch your butt cheeks. If price is to consider, they do have the punch card option which I prefer myself. It is a bit overly priced compared to other places, so it is something to consider but you do get what you pay for in some cases. In this case I think a punch card option unless you planning to go everyday for an hour. The instructors are very dedicated, knowledgeable and they keep a watchful eye on your performance and form. These are timed events so it will push you to the core. Get in and experience it firsthand. Guaranteed you'll get hooked. Its not about competing with the next person but competing against yourself and move up to a different level. For me personally, I had to step away just because of my own injuries but I plan on returning once I have recovered from surgery.

Fantastic experience: In March of 2016 my wife and I joined the community at Vitality Fitness. We both found ourselves in unfamiliar territory. I was nearly 210 lbs and that might not seem to heavy but when I got married in 2011, I only weighed 167lbs. Walking in, I hoped to start Crossfit right away because I was comfortable with the barbell from my time playing football. Unfortunately, they did not have a foundation class scheduled. So we made the decision to start Evofit that day. I knew if we walked away, there was a high chance of not coming back. (That’s also why we paid for a year upfront.) For almost 2 months, the coaches in Evofit pushed us and the weight started falling off. I could feel my engine getting stronger and each day I came with a purpose and determination. The coaches focused on quality of movement over quantity. Finally a foundation class opened and I made the jump with my friend Jason. Starting crossfit I was 193 lbs and everyday was brutal and humbling. I say that in a good way. The more my fitness and lifting mechanics increase the harder I could push. That’s when the workouts got harder. Before I turned 30, I had been working out in the classes at Vitality for 8 months. I weighed in at 174lbs, and going to the box was top priority in our family. We wanted to be healthy and as our family has grown with our first and second child, we have found a community of people to share our lives with. Making the jump and starting our journey with Vitality fitness has been the best decision for our family. The programming is good, the equipment and floors are clean but the people and coaches are top notch. That’s what you can’t find at most Globo gyms. If your curious, stop in and watch how the community comes together during a class.

Fantastic experience: I have been associated with Vitality for over 5 years. But it was really in the last two years, that we were able to lean in harder. As our younger daughter got ready for College, we were able to work out more and focus on health that really wasnt as feasible before. I love the EvoFit bootcamp. I have weight to lose but didn't have the time or headspace to really dial in what I needed to do. Working with Jess on a Keto plan, and investigating why body holds weight is so important. My physical skills have improved immensely. I feel great. But what really makes Vitality so special is that it is genuine, authentic and family oriented. It is a community. When our daughters are home from College, even for a day, the whole family works out. The coaches are awesome. The workouts are challenging for folks of all ability. Quite frankly, having a gym like Vitality is really special.

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Vitality for 3 years. They have an amazing facility and great coaches. It will only take your first visit to feel right at home. If you are thinking about improving your health and fitness visit this place, it will be life changing!

Fantastic experience: I began my journey at Vitality in May 2018. I was fairly lazy and my job is mainly sitting at a desk. I ate healthy (paleo-ish). I hadn’t been happy with my pants size, the # on the scale, and the straw that broke the camel’s back were my blood test results (cholesterol & such). I Knew that exercise would impact all of this in a positive way, but had been so adverse to putting in the work. Remember I said I was pretty lazy? So, I joined the Evofit program and was instantly hooked, despite the muscle soreness! I quickly found that the adrenaline and excitement of accomplishment from class to class or week to week was enough to keep me going. The coaches are great at scaling & modifying to your ability! I tried the other types of gyms where you go by yourself and hop on a treadmill- no good for me. I like the competition and encouragement that my classmates and coaches provide. The scale barely moved for almost 4 months of 3-4/week classes, but I KNEW it was working- my clothes started to fit differently. And how on 1 week I could not perform an exercise, but the next class I could do some & then the next I didn’t have to modify or scale. No one judges you here if you ‘can’t do’. And it’s perfect for those, who like me, are intimidated by the whole heavy weights and barbells aspect of traditional CrossFit. Everyone supports each other! I’m 6 months in and see no end! Down 3 pants sizes and the pile of clothes that are too big has become much larger than the ones that are still in my closet & fit. (The only downside to Vitality, is they won’t give me any of my money back to buy new clothes that fit & I sometimes have to pull my pants up while doing an exercise!)

Fantastic experience: This place is more fun than a trip to Carowinds. If you are looking to get your sweat On and build strong muscles you must try vitality. Often times the coaches dance and joke which makes it even more fun. If you get lucky they’ll even take music requests! Make sure you put your equipment away though. It’s very important.

Fantastic experience: 1.5 years in and I wouldn't change a thing. The facility is very up to date and clean always. Every coach is helpful and very knowledgeable. Such a friendly environment.

Fantastic experience: Nicest gym ive been at in my 20+ years of working out. Excellent, knowledgeable staff.

Fantastic experience: The Staff is very responsive and friendly.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Vitality is the ultimate training facility with the best trainers around! They are very positive, extremely knowledgeable in proper form/technique, and they push each member to achieve their goals. I have been attending CrossFit classes for 4 months, have lost over 3% body fat, gained 2 lbs of muscle, gained strength, endurance, received proper coaching, and positive encouragement. I am so excited to be a part of this CrossFit community because everyone makes you feel welcomed. Also, I know that I am at the right place to achieve all my fitness goals. At 49, I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! There are multiple fitness options available for everyone whether you consider yourself an athlete or are just looking to get back in to shape. I have been involved in both the EvoFit and CrossFit classes for the past 5 years and have enjoyed them so much. Each class has provided me with multiple opportunities to improve my health and reduce stress :) There are multiple resources such as nutrition and individualized programming options available as well. I am so happy to be a part of the Vitality community and would highly recommend it to anyone no matter your current fitness level or goals !!

Fantastic experience: I have been to quite a few gyms in my life and this is the best group fitness experience, gym facility, and fitness community that I have ever seen. If you are looking for a place to help you in your fitness goals, you should check out CrossFit Vitality to see for yourself what makes this place different from the average box. In my opinion, the coaching staff can make or break an organization like this, and all of the coaches on staff here are incredible and take a lot of pride in what they do! The passion for excellence in ownership and management here are clearly evident. Last November I was able to take my fitness goals to the next level when I decided to get serious and committ to what this gym has to offer, and that included taking Steve’s advice and asking Jess to help me improve my diet. Following Steve’s ever challenging programming and a new diet has resulted in a stonger, faster, leaner, and happier me. The competitive spirit that makes me who I am is also welcomed here because there are many other like minded individuals at this gym that are striving to compete with others and, or theirselves to become the best version of theirself each day. It doesn’t matter if you do EvoFit, or CrossFit; I started with EvoFit and transitioned into CrossFit, but now I still like to do both. Also, do not be intimidated by the movements or not being good at this style of workout, if it is completely new to you. The great coaching, and support from fellow members will get you over that hurdle quicker than you may imagine! Do not be surprised if you observe the individuals who are finishing last, are often cheered for and encouraged the most here. Team workouts are really fun, and I am blessed to have met some great people here, which includes the members and staff.

Fantastic experience: I do the boot camp style EVOFIT workout an average of 2x per week, for 45 minutes on the Vitality side of C.F.V. I'm 40 years old, and WAS 40ish lbs over my ideal weight. LESS than 4 months later, I am down 35 lbs thanks to the lifestyle changes I made under the guidance of my nutrition counselor Jessica Pinkerton (who I affectionately call Jess the Genius), who made a custom diet plan just for me. My advice to anyone: STOP making excuses & CHANGE your life at CrossFit Vitality! #thecoachesareawesome #willbeinbettershapeinmy40sthanIwasinmy30s
