All right Yelp, it's been awhile. I have a love-hate with sharing my favorite places because then…read morethey'll get too busy but dusting off my Yelp review skills because this place really deserves all the hype and kudos. So if you're on the fence, get your popcorn, here we go. I am the queen of workout studio classes - cycling, barre, pilates, HIIT, Orangetheory, F45, Equinox, classpass. Been there, done that. Each studio has their upsides and purpose depending on your fitness goals but at the end of the day, if you're anything like me, each studio loses its glamour due to the repetitive nature of the classes. In comes Madabolic! So you're wondering, how does this differ and why is it great?? 1. The workout does a great job of keeping things fresh - cycling between Durability Days (heavier weight focused at 80% efforts throughout), Momentum (building momentum efforts at 70%, 80% and 90%) and Anaerobic Days (all out 100% HIIT in your face days). Different things going on everyday and don't let the titles "Durability" fool you that it's a specifically a weight lifting day or that "Anaerobic" is strictly a cardio day - all days include a good ratio of both. Trust me, you will be sore (in a good way). 2. The coaches (and the people)! Granted I do 530am workouts where I'm barely awake for half of the class, but everyone is extremely welcoming and friendly. Plus if you're a newb like me and working on your form, you actually get assistance with your form and help with modifying your workout if needed. 3. The difficulty. Finally a workout that accommodates both men and women (Couples workout? Day date? Anyone?). Similar to Orangetheory or F45, there are several options for weights depending on your level - but differing in the fact that the weight choices are clearly set by level so you know what to choose without having to guess and have something to build up to if you're looking to BUILD that muscle! 4. All right, the last thing. Let me address the elephant in the room - Boxing. Either you come in loving it or absolutely dreading it. I was definitely the latter. Every class includes it and I had maybe 10 minutes of boxing experience prior to this and hated this circuit so much in the beginning that I constantly considered quitting the studio every time. Hear me out - It grows on you and soon you'll begin to feel like a badass and recognize how great it is for your core and arms - trust me, it could be worse, you could be doing mountain climbers and push-ups everyday to work those muscles .

Great trainers and location. Super clean with a HUGE training floor and check in area. The workout…read morewas awesome (even though I almost died lolol) and I felt right at home like I was in charlotte. My ONLY recommendation is to have benches or some type of seating out in the check in area. people who don't like wearing their training shoes to and from their workout can sit and change their shoes. I felt weird sitting on the floor so I balanced and changed shoes standing up. Haha! Walked to the car and changed out of my shoes back into my regular street shoes. No big deal but definitely something to think about!!

I was charged again in September and reached out on 9/8 to cancel but got no response until days later, after the 30-day notice window had passed. I was also advised they had already reached out and I was forward a screenshot but had no email in my inbox so that seemed odd to me. Despite canceling the day the link was provided (9/11)I was charged again in October. The whole process felt intentionally confusing and inconvenient. I kept getting told that I was past the 30 days cancellation but that was due to the lack of communication on F45's part. It's very easy to communicate when you're contemplating becoming a member but extremely hard to get a hold of someone when you wish to cancel. The classes themselves were fine- good instructors and solid workouts- but the billing and cancellation process feels misleading and difficult. Be aware this is a recurring membership that's difficult to cancel and can only be done through a hard-to-find link.

He's super knowledgeable and able to really personalize every workout based on my goals and also with safety and specificity in mind (as an endurance athlete and fitness professional I have a lot of lingering flexibility issues etc). I love that I don't have to pay for a pretentious frilly gym membership and there's never a wait for the machines. David is so great to work with, will accommodate scheduling as best he can, and really does his research to tailor each workout to my needs and abilities and make the most of every session. Highly recommend!

There's a reason gyms get 5 stars and reasons many other gyms struggle to get 2 stars. It all comes down to simplicity and customer service.

Been going to CFR for about a year now. Before I started, I was concerned with the risk of injury,…read morebut I had been in the same routine for a decade and needed a change. The coaches at CFR do a great job of walking through movements and encourage mastering form before throwing on weight. The people that work out at CFR are super friendly and genuinely great people. There is a real sense of community for those looking for it. Ages of members range from early 20's to 60's but most fall within the 30 to 45 age range (I would guess). If you're looking for a new crossfit home or looking to try it for the first time, CrossFit Richardson is definitely worth a try!
