Nexus Fitness

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym i have ever been a member of! Programming, community, and professionalism are top notch and I’ve been a member of several crossfit gyms and Nexus surpasses them all! Can’t recommend them enough, clear that owners, coaches, and staff take pride in what they do!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus Fitness is hands down the best gym my husband and I have ever been a part of. The community is welcoming, the coaches are knowledgeable, and the programming is incredibly well thought out. Every workout feels purposeful and safe — challenging without ever compromising form or recovery. We’ve both seen real progress since joining, and we actually look forward to working out each day. Jake sincerely cares about each member’s goals and well-being. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a supportive and smart approach to fitness!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been part of Nexus for the last 6 years - and I still love the community - the coaches and the friends - be part of nexus family is not only for an impact in my physical lifestyle but also to have a family that encourages me. Nexus se la rifa!

Experiencia fantástica: Great drop-in experience. Super coaches, athletes, and facilities. Wish I had time to hut the sauna!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is a great gym! Been a member for about a month and a half now, and the workouts are solid and the people are fun and friendly. Would highly recommend Nexus as a perfect place to drop in while in Bham or to join if you’re looking for a gym home!

Experiencia fantástica: The Nexus staff have always and continue to be incredibly knowledgable, motivating and a lot of fun.

Experiencia fantástica: Best coaches!! Best community!! You might throw up your first day but you’re going to love it!! It literally changed my life and it made working out so fun!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been a member of Nexus since August and I absolutely love it! The coaches are great, the workouts challenge you to be the best version of yourself (they can be scaled) and the community is incredible. 10/10 recommended!

Experiencia fantástica: I love Nexus! It’s an all around great gym. Great coaching, great community, great programming, and great atmosphere. It keeps me accountable and pushes me while still meets me where I am at in terms of level of fitness. I 100% recommend joining this gym, you won’t regret it!

Experiencia fantástica: I have never been the person who craved a workout. Historically I have worked out just to check the box but I have not loved a gym or a workout like I love my time at Nexus. The coaches are awesome and understand my goals. They create a fun, safe environment where I can push myself with the goal of not getting hurt. Nexus has changed my preconceived notions of a CrossFit gym and helped me get into a healthy spot after years of having children and recovering from having children. If you're nervous to try it out, I understand because I was there too. It really is such a fun gym where you can get stronger, feel better and be encouraged by those around you.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been at Nexus for almost a year, and am so much better for it! The coaches, the programming, and the people are all so amazing. The workouts are always challenging, but there is space for everyone at Nexus to be where they are while being encouraged to grow! I cannot recommend Nexus enough, and am so, so grateful for how it has enriched my life!

Experiencia fantástica: I’m so very grateful that I walked through the doors of X4! I have completely fallen in love with the coaches, the community and the workouts. The workouts are always hard but always worth it! I’ve definitely gotten stronger since going but honestly how it has made improvements in my mental health has been such a gift. If you are like me and had let too much time pass from your last work out don’t let that stop you from walking through the doors and giving it a try. It’s so worth taking a chance on!

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a member at Nexus for over 5 years. It’s such a great community of people. And the workouts are amazing too!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is a great facilty , wig awesome coaches!

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym in Birmingham, hands down! Such a supportive community and coaching pushes you to be stronger and fitter. A place I look forward to going!

Experiencia fantástica: I started coming to Nexus almost one year ago, and it has been one of the best decisions. The programming is top notch, and the community is even better! When I first joined, I was brand new to Crossfit and about 5 months postpartum with my third baby. Slowly but surely I've seen progress in strength, stability, cardio capacity, and confidence. I appreciate how sustainable Jake's programming is and how attentive the coaches are in making sure you get the right modifications and right challenges for where you are in your fitness journey.

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus has been a steady community the last 5 years. It’s a place full of loving and tough people who simply want to get better. Mentally, physically, and emotionally, you will be pushed to your limits by coaches who care. Come on over. The water is just fine

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been at Nexus for about 6 months now and it’s been wonderful! All of the coaches are knowledgeable, kind, helpful, and fun. It’s such an encouraging environment that challenges me to push myself, while also appreciating the progress I’ve made so far. Can’t say enough good things!

Experiencia fantástica: I can’t recommend Nexus enough! The atmosphere here is incredibly welcoming, and the energy is always positive. The gym is well-equipped with top-notch amenities. The community is what truly sets this place apart — everyone supports each other, creating a motivating and fun environment. The coaching is top-tier, with knowledgeable trainers who take the time to ensure proper form and offer personalized guidance. Highly recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus Fitness is the BEST! The community, coaches, and facility are top notch. Love this place!!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is the best…very detailed, helpful, and in control. Great at programming . Great energy and great at pushing me / encouraging me but not in an over the top way where I want to fight them . Really supportive gym where competitive and casual athletes maximize their fitness goals and coexist very well.

Experiencia fantástica: Jake is an amazing coach and motivator! He explains and demos the workouts and pushes you to complete them even when you don’t think you can. I can definitely see and feel the changes in my body, my strength, and endurance since joining nexus and being coached by Jake!

Experiencia fantástica: Jake is a fantastic coach. He knows my goals and helps me find the best way to reach them, even while dealing with a knee injury. Every class he’s there cheering me on, along with other members going through the workout next to me. Love this place and its community.

Experiencia fantástica: Thank you, Jake for being a great coach, always!

Experiencia fantástica: Great workouts and great community! Jake is a fantastic coach.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym. Excellent coaching. Very welcoming environment.

Experiencia fantástica: I joined Nexus's Crossfit gym about a year and a half ago, after deciding that just running wasn't working for me, either motivationally or in terms of whole-body fitness. I was a little worried about the whole Crossfit thing -- I've never really worked out in a gym before, and my brother did it years ago in Florida and ended up getting injured. But a colleague at work, who goes here, encouraged me to try it out, noting that the trainers know what they're doing and are very careful. I've had a *great* experience. Both the trainers and the other members are very encouraging. I get plenty of direction when I need it, and we do plenty of stretching and form work, and of course we switch up workouts all the time which helps to avoid any repetitive stress injuries (which, honestly, I'd get from time to time while running). I started two days a week, then moved to three, now I'm doing four, and I'm in the best shape of my life, and only feeling better. If you're looking to get into shape, this is a welcoming, challenging place to do it.

Experiencia fantástica: A great place for community, elite coaching and programming and top notch facilities. One of a kind!

Experiencia fantástica: The BEST gym and community!! I joined in September, a few months after my son was born and never having done CrossFit. Being new to CrossFit, I have felt so welcomed and supported. The programming is the perfect mix of challenging while also being something a “normal” human can complete. The coaches are attentive and always you pushing you to give your all. So grateful for Nexus and all I’ve learned these last few months!

Experiencia fantástica: Best CrossFit gym in Birmingham that truly hits the nail on the head with being able to cater to ALL fitness levels. The community is incredible and the programming is spot on thanks to Jake! Jake is the most engaged, genuine and effective coach anyone could ask for in a CrossFit or just any group fitness class!

Experiencia fantástica: No place I would rather be!! Truly thankful for the Nexus community!

Experiencia fantástica: Great programming and coaching!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I drop in occasionally when traveling for work. Having been to a handful of different gyms over the years, I can say that this place is fantastic! Great community, great coaches, and the workouts are always solid...all in a really nice venue with good equipment. Thanks Nexus for keeping me fit while traveling!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been at Nexus since the beginning of the year, everyone has been super welcoming and has been a solid community since moving to Bham. Coaching and programming are also top notch.

Experiencia fantástica: It’s cool, refreshing, - aaand it’s a great way to stay in shape!

Experiencia fantástica: Spend most of my mornings here! Been to many gyms around town and out of state, and this is by far my favorite! Shout out to Jake for his amazing programming!

Experiencia fantástica: I love Nexus Fitness!! The coaches are always encouraging and helpful, the workouts are always challenging, and the people are always friendly. Seriously. I work out on the CrossFit side and my wife does X4; we're both hooke d. There's an incredible sense of accomplishment that comes from completing a workout - it's been a huge boost to my mental health, not to mention my physical health. If you believe that you are capable of becoming stronger, faster, and fitter, come check this place out!

Experiencia fantástica: I get a great workout at Nexus. It’s safe and the staff and other members are always encouraging.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent gym with outstanding coaches!

Experiencia fantástica: Great Gym, great facilities, clean and equipment is all first class.

Experiencia fantástica: Great spot!

Experiencia fantástica: As a mom in my late 30s, I was intimidated by the idea of CrossFit but also knew the importance of lifting weights, especially as we age. Some friends convinced me to try Nexus and I was immediately put at-ease by the welcoming members and knowledgeable coaches. Every exercise was explained in a way that made sense and I was able to catch on relatively quickly. Lifting weights has been (dare I say…!) fun and I find myself looking forward to going to the gym. I can’t recommend Nexus enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is an amazing gym for all types of athletes along various stages of their fitness journey

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is an amazing gym! The community and coaches are some of the best. I’d recommend anyone to come and give it a try!

Experiencia fantástica: Super encouraging instructors and community! In Jake’s programming we trust

Experiencia fantástica: Top tier programming along with a top tier space! Supportive, family driven culture with individualized attention by coaches. You feel, and know they have your best interest and longevity in mind. Would recommend to anyone moving to the Birmingham area as a home gym or anyone just stopping by!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is awesome!

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place! Best coaches, facilities, and sense of community. I have been a member since they opened.... best gym in bham hands down!

Experiencia fantástica: I started NEXUS six months ago and I’ve lost 35 pounds and feel the best I have in decades! Love this place!

Experiencia fantástica: Good facilities, good coaches, and great atmosphere !

Experiencia fantástica: Great place, great people. I have been there since day 1. Kevin Carlson here. 400 burpees? Ha.

Experiencia fantástica: I love this gym! The community is fantastic and facilities are in great shape. I’ve also really enjoyed the programming, as it comes across as very intentional and effective.

Experiencia fantástica: I joined Nexus about 2 1/2 years ago and it was one of the best decisions I have made from my time in Birmingham! I had never been in a gym setting before coming, so I was incredibly intimidated when I started. The coaches were so welcoming and helped talk me through each workout and what would work best for me. I love Nexus because while there is a general workout posted for everyone each day, the coaches will work with you to personalize it to what works best for your body and capability. It’s not a one size fits all, which was great for a girl who could hardly bench the bar when I first started!

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym on the planet. Super professional. Classes start and finish on schedule. Great coaches great and great members.

Experiencia fantástica: The coaches are so supportive and the workout is so rewarding

Experiencia fantástica: Great facility. Great coach's, great marketing team.

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is incredible! The entire staff is the best in Birmingham.

Experiencia fantástica: Great workout!️ Felt very welcome as a drop in from California

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym in Birmingham! Excellent coaching staff, always very clean, great community, amazing workouts.

Experiencia fantástica: It would be hard to overstate how valuable Nexus has been for me: The coaches’ care and attention in all things, injury prevention, the highly competitive environment that remains accessible and unpretentious, supportive and friendly. Nexus has become a part of pursuing a healthy and whole lifestyle. I could not be more thankful.

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a member for a year and a half. Love this place: the energy, the competition (if you want it to be competitive), the class offerings, and facility! They have a sauna and full service showers (towels included). Also have a cold towel they distribute right after workouts for that extra experience! I love how jake programs- I feel empowered and never defeated. I’ve hit major PRs and gymnastics moves since being here. Great, live coaching- they are watching you as you lift and correct when needed! It’s fun and I come 4-5x a week because it’s such a good thing for me!

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym in Birmingham. The workouts are easily scalable and effective for all skill levels.

Experiencia fantástica: The best gym experience I’ve had in the Birmingham area. Tons of coaching help for CrossFit beginners!

Experiencia fantástica: Great community and awesome programming! Jake and Tristan go above and beyond with their programming and provide insightful ways to scale to your level if needed. Great for all fitness levels.

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus and X4 are the best in bham! Great environment, awesome coaches, and amazing community!!!

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym community in Birmingham! The coaches are amazing and truly care about their members!!

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible coaching and programming! And the best community. We love it here!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely LOVE Nexus! This gym was my first real CrossFit experience, and the coaches are so helpful and patient as I’ve learned the ropes. It’s a great, safe place to learn and grow as an athlete, but also a place to find community, fitness, and excellence. I love getting a good workout, but it’s the friendships and community that take it over the top. I’d highly encourage anyone to try it out.

Experiencia fantástica: My wife and I moved into West Homewood in September of 2021 and I immediately noticed a large group of people running up and down the sidewalk in front of Seeds Coffee. I thought to myself, “we just moved into the most active neighborhood in BHAM.” Come to find out, Nexus was down the street and they had a free class to come and see what they were all about. I tried the free class and I was immediately impressed and hooked. I have now been attending Nexus regularly for almost two years and I cannot overstate how grateful I am for this gym. The people, the programming, and the facilities are all top notch. Nexus is far beyond any “CrossFit gym stereotype” you can think of, and they immediately welcome you into a family. A family that encourages, challenges, and supports you through your whole fitness journey. So grateful to have stumbled upon such a fantastic place. Shoutout the Chris and the whole crew. Y’all are the best!

Experiencia fantástica: The coaches and community at Nexus have pushed me to do more than I thought I could-- all in an encouraging, fun, and competitive atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a great workout and a great environment!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus is the best fitness experience of my life. It is marked by excellent coaching, attention to detail, amazing community, and top notch equipment. I can’t say enough good things about Nexus Fitness.

Experiencia fantástica: The people, the atmosphere are top notch. This is my first go at CrossFit and it’s been excellent. Love this gym and how welcoming they are of all levels of skill. It actually makes me look forward to early morning workouts.

Experiencia fantástica: Everyone is friendly. Come at any fitness level, and you can modify to meet your needs!

Experiencia fantástica: The coaches are super knowledgeable and fun. They make crossfit accessible. No matter who you are, they come up with what works for you.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this gym! Never have found a place that feels more like home. Grateful for Nexus

Experiencia fantástica: Great coaches. Great WOD’s. Best gym in Birmingham.

Experiencia fantástica: I love the workouts that are programmed for us each week. Nexus is the best!!! & of course the community is my favorite aspect!

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic gym! Great group of people with coaching that is extremely intentional. If you’re looking for a great community and a tough workout, Nexus is your spot!

Experiencia fantástica: Although most workouts leave me lifeless on the floor for 15 minutes after the workout, my body feels better than ever. Evil workouts, but amazing. Wouldn’t trade it for the world. #HIIT

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus Fitness is an incredible gym filled with incredible people, coaches and equipment. Join Nexus and come to a class every day and it will change your life in 3 months. Weak legs make weak men, and there are no weak men at Nexus (we squat every week).

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus Fitness is a beautiful gym that includes a large workout space, locker rooms with showers and saunas, brand new equipment, carefully planned programming, and coaches who truly care about you. As someone who had never done CrossFit before, I was welcomed in and never felt intimidated thanks to the scaled/RX options and fun community feel. I have been a member for over three years now, and I have challenged and enjoyed myself in ways I never thought possible. Not to mention, I have gained lifelong friendships from this place. Highly recommend!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I tried a few Gyms before trying out Nexus. By the far the best gym, great atmosphere, perfect workouts and friendly people and environment

Experiencia fantástica: Top notch programming, coaching, equipment, and people. What else could you want out of a gym??

Experiencia fantástica: An amazing place for people who are just starting their fitness journey and need the push to create a love for working out or for the veterans who want to continue getting better with the well thought out strength and cardio workouts where coaches can individualize movements for anyone who might need a different style movement but want the same outcome. The coaches are there for you the entire class and will help every step of the way. All workouts are explained step by step at the beginning of each class. Community is everything here and no one is left discouraged after a hard workout. Make friends, compete against them if you want or join them in the occasional partner workouts. And what's better than a cold towel after a hot workout.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome Gym. Love the coaches and the teamwork atmosphere there. The facility is very clean and the gym itself is rated 5 stars.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place. Incredible blend of competitiveness and making people better, but still reaching every person. Truly a gym for every fitness level and each person will achieve a goal if they have one. No matter how high or low!! Jake, Chris and Tristan are so awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: The Nexus facility, coaching, and vibe are top notch! Welcoming people, hard workouts, with added benefit of luxury amenities.

Experiencia fantástica: Just had an excellent drop-in class. The coaches were extremely welcoming and thorough with explanation and encouragement. I am moving into the area so looking forward to calling them my home gym!

Experiencia fantástica: Best of the best

Experiencia fantástica: Highly, highly recommend Nexus. I’ve been attending for three years and the facilities, equipment, coaching, and people are all top notch. Thankful for this place and the ability to make this gym and it’s people a large part of my life.

Experiencia fantástica: I have really enjoyed my past few months with this community! Whether you are a crossfitter or a HIITer, this is where you can find all your fitness needs! My husband and I joined X4 this summer together after still feeling like we were in a post-Covid era funk and were running out of excuses. I love the coaches (shoutout to my boy Jon!), the smaller class sizes, and the people! I love it so much, that I have even gotten up and gone to the 5AM class TWICE this week just to get my workouts in! I love that I don't have to sign up 2 weeks in advance to get in a class - there is always a spot for me even when I decide to hop in a class last minute! Whether you are a beginner or an athlete looking for a challenge, you will fit right in with us at X4!

Experiencia fantástica: Nexus has been a great experience all the way around! Challenging workouts in a super positive atmosphere with a close community vibe. I truly enjoy my friends and my workouts at Nexus!

Experiencia fantástica: When you walk in the first thing you notice is the massive American flag, an excellent sign. The equipment is top notch, and the gym is always clean. The coaches are very professional, knowledgeable, and communicate well. They also wrestle Grizzly bears in their free time to prove they are legit. As well they are both direct descendants of George Washington. The programing will make you better, you have no choice but to get stronger and faster. If you want to be a better American you should consider joining Nexus. It was the second best decision I ever made besides being Taylor Swift's ex-boyfriend.

Experiencia fantástica: One of the best operated/coached, well equipped and cleanest facilities I’ve ever trained at. This place is an absolute gem. Dropped in to CrossFit class one day and trained at X4 the next day. Something for all levels of fitness. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome place to workout and a great community! The coaches are so encouraging. I walk out dead every time and I love it! Highly recommended studio to get your butt kicked!

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Professionalism I love Nexus for the friendly staff, encouragement, and general community feel. The workouts are awesome and I've been taught great technique.

Experiencia fantástica: The people are great! The facilities are awesome! The workouts are killer!!

It fits the needs of a wide range of people and is incredibly consistent with the workouts, coaching, and culture. They are always looking to improve with updates to the facility and it is a great time to be a part of their momentum!
