I absolutely love Camelback CrossFit! The atmosphere is welcoming, positive, and truly feels like a second home. The gym is always spotless and very well maintained. The coaches are fantastic and always make sure you practice safely with proper form. Coming from a medical background, I can confidently say that Nick and Robert have an excellent understanding of anatomy and physiology, and they lead by example by doing the WODs themselves. Robert is motivational, positive, always demonstrating movements, and keeps the gym incredibly clean. Nick is polite, very technical, and explains movements in detail. Tony, Alicia, and McKenna add encouragement, PT expertise, and a perfect post-WOD yoga reset. Highly recommend CBCF to anyone looking for a professional, safe, and supportive CrossFit! read more

Really great experience dropping in here. It was easy to sign the waiver ahead of time, find the facility, and a parking spot. The place is big, clean, open and bright and everyone was very friendly. Will hopefully be back tomorrow! read more

How do I love thee, Camelback Crossfit? Let me count the ways. 1) Camelback Crossfit has some of the best coaching staff in the Phoenix metro area. Coach Rob Huffer genuinely cares about all of the members and is always there to help with form, teaching new moves, and overall improving an athlete's performance. He is also a great friend and person to talk to. Coaches Kaitlyn, Jake, Josh, and more are all great. 2) The space is superb. I moved to NYC after two years at this gym and I can't believe how I didn't appreciate the sheer size and space in the gym. Not only is it big but it's really well laid out with the rig in the middle, more racks on the sides, and open space for WODs. 3) Programming is tough but attainable for newbies who can scale. Last I was there they were using Ben Bergeron's programming who programs for some of CrossFit's most elite athletes. 4) This place isn't just a gym, it's a home. I spent two years here and found wonderful friendships and a community I miss and love dearly. Members are friendly and willing to help you learn and improve, and the gym hosts monthly member events like going to baseball games, the water park, an in-gym Christmas party that gets pleasantly rowdy. If you're looking for a new gym in Scottsdale, I can't recommend a place more than Camelback Crossfit. read more

Well organized and always energetic group of Coaches and members. The workouts are challenging yet scalable for most everyone. Matt and Robert have terrific communication skill, educated, group awareness, motivational and make a solid attempt to bring the community together. The gym has a variety of equipment & is typically clean and tidy. I Highly recommend this team for anyone looking to gain better strength and stamina. read more

Camelback CrossFit is an incredible gym! Matt, Rob, Dom and Jake possess terrific communication skills, are educated, provide group awareness, motivational and make an outstanding attempt to bring the community together. From day 1 you feel like you joined a community and not just a gym. You are not forgotten. If you have questions, they will answer them. If you are unsure about a certain Olympic lifting movement or gymnastics movement, any coach and/or member is willing to help you figure it out. The workouts at first were very challenging and overwhelming, yet with the assistance from the coaches and members I was able to figure out a perfect scale for a lot of the WODs. Anyone interested in joining or attempting CrossFit, do not be discouraged in those first few weeks to months. Get in a routine, make friends and make sure you stretch. Camelback CrossFit is by far my favorite CrossFit gym. Everyone's friendly. There are people at many levels so it's a good place whether you're a newbie, seasoned CrossFitter or a competitor. There's always someone to challenge you and to compete with. I'll be honest, I am one of those people that tend to be the last people to finish a WOD. When I feel like I can't go any further there's always someone near pushing me and telling me to go higher, further and faster. I'll be contemplating a max rep and Coach Dom will come around and sincerely say, "YOU'RE FAST AND YOU'RE STRONG" and it is truly remarkable to have those people in your life to push you to be the best you can be. All the coaches and members at Camelback CrossFit are just down right good, honest and sincere human beings. It's refreshing to be surrounded by a community that promotes this type of atmosphere 1 hour a day. read more

Camelback Crossfit is a world class Functional Fitness gym located in South Scottsdale, or SoSco, if you're that guy. It's safe to say that these gyms all have the same stuff in them, but CBCF has one thing, that no other gym does- Coach Matt. Coach Matt is a tremendous fitness expert who provides quality instruction and training to all the members of the gym. Coach Matt is super encouraging, positive, and highly knowledgeable in all things fitness. In addition to knowing his stuff, Coach Matt also fosters a positive environment throughout the entire gym, so that none of the typical gym douchiness or cliques are a factor. All the other athletes at CBCF are very helpful and encouraging. CBCF has competitive athletes, regular people, newbies, and people like me who are clueless. Regardless of what group you align with, you will find a comfortable fit at CBCF! Everyone is welcome, and the veterans there are super helpful and supportive. I can not recommend this gym highly enough. If you're ready to change your life- stop your search and get started. Coach Matt and CBCF can help you reach all your fitness goals. If you are ready for an amazing experience, where you will work hard, and reap the benefits, then check it out. Why not you? read more

Do I like working out? No. Do I want to be jacked? No. Do I want to break my huge, coffin-shaped acrylic nails? ABSOLUTELY not! I just want to feel good and have fun. Simple as that. This place makes that easy to do. I've always been insecure about working out in front of other people, so it was really hard to me to join this gym. After months and months of mulling it over, I bit the bullet in the middle of December after a break up. Great decision on my part. I come in twice a week and mostly work with Jake and Rob. They're both corrective and challenging WITHOUT being overbearing. Plus they laugh at 75% of my jokes. That's key for me because my level of comfort is going to encourage me to come back consistently. I really think I'll be able to get in great shape through this place. Thanks guys! read more

There are very few gyms that can cater to advanced and novice athletes all the same time- this one can. This is legit a gym for everyone, I worked out as a drop in on a Saturday, myself as an intermediate guy, There were brand new folks ( less than a week) and jacked seasoned athletes that clearly have been working out so much they forgot what food taste like without a protein shake. The facility is huge, the equipment is great and there was at least one dog, 10 out of 10. I live in Chicago but am from Arizona, this gym ends my search for a hometown gym, I will not work out anywhere else in Arizona... it is so good It makes me almost want to move home. Almost. read more

Dropped in while in town for spring training. The staff was super friendly and their space is awesome. Felt right at home and came back a few times while I was in town. If I'm ever back in the Phoenix area Ill 100% be back at Camelback. Can't speak highly enough of my experience, loved this place read more

Dropped in for a workout and it didn't disappoint!Definitely recommend this box if you're passing through the area of here on vacation/business. Hospitality was great by the coach and by all the members! read more

Had a really nice drop in here! I drop in all over the country and was thrilled at how welcoming this crew was! It was a large class of at least 20 people, but the space more more than large enough to accommodate! Multiple lines of rigs and all the essentials in up to date CrossFit equipment. Dropping in was super easy, just went to the website and logged into wodify to fill out my waiver. I didn't need to reserve a spot or anything, just showed up a few minutes before class and payed my drop in dues! One of the highlights of the class was the great sound system, I don't usually pay attention to those sorts of things but it was noticeable at this box. They also played a really great playlist straight out of the 80s movies like top gun! The coaching was great as well, it was a strength and skill portion followed by a lot of burpees and double unders and the coach was more than encouraging! I would definitely recommend checking out this box if you're in the Scottsdale area! read more

Such a rad gym! Big, open, clean. The equipment is in amazing shape. Everyone is super friendly. They offer classes and open gym times. Super easy parking. And they have showers. Perfect spot to get a workout in and have community. read more

I'm super new to Crossfit and was so nervous to go to a box but Rob and Matt are both super supportive and amazing. I love the energy here. I was worried I would be waves behind everyone but there are all different levels and abilities here and the general atmosphere is extremely positive. I know it's a workout but it's my favorite part of the day. I highly recommend camelback crossfit. read more

Let's see where to start... I original joined this gym (Box) in January 2014 when it was known as Scottsdale Health Care (SHC). So, I too was recently on Yelp, looking for the perfect fit. As such, I was skeptical of a lot of reviews because of biases or a person's one bad experience. With that said I would like to add my review to help you. I must warn you though... I'm obsessed with Camelback Crossfit (CBCF); it's like a 2nd home, and I have no intentions of vacating anytime in the near future. I'm going to squat here until I die! The review is most definitely going to be a little biased. I mean what would you expect? That was a rhetorical question. I will however try my best to be as neutral as possible, or a voice of reason so to speak. Atmosphere: Now you have to understand, at the end of the day, I am an introvert. During the rest of the day it just depends on whether or not I made it to CBCF, or if I am Hangry, or Sleep Deprived, the Vibes (Yep! Said it) around me, and/or alcohol :p. This makes interacting with new people in an unknown territory a lot of work! I will also state the fact that I did try out a couple other Crossfit gyms, of which, I had friends at, until I found CBCF. Justly so, the atmosphere makes this place, like so many have said before. I was content with getting in, doing the work out and leaving. Now I get there early, shoot the shit during, and hate leaving after. I've never had that feeling at any other gym in my life! It's just something you have to come and feel for yourself. Feel them vibes! WOD (Work Out of the Day): A different hour long adventure every day! Very rare to do something twice in a month, except for weightlifting, but they differ in set and reps each week. Here's honest for you... It won't be easy at first, Crossfits a whole different workout, but you'll make it through and be damn proud of it! They've also recently added new classes such as Crossfit 101 & 102, Olympic Lifting, and Running Endurance & Mobility. There's whisper of a Yoga class being added too! People: Do you know how hard it is to be cordial at 5 in the morning? Would you believe me if I told you I was warmly welcomed at 5am? Do I need to expand more on the people/community of this place? How often have you competed against friends who are cheering for you before, during, and after? People who challenge you to get one more rep? Or add 5 more pounds on the bar? Who want to see you grow into the person you dream of being physically and mentally? And as the days and months go on I continue to become friends with more and more old and new members alike here. Coaches: I have had the privilege of being trained by Matt, Dom, and Rob, but will not forget to mention Brady. All of whom are constantly improving everyone's form on lifts and movements alike, as well as motivating people to their next plateaus. They truly know what they are talking about and rightfully so given the title Coach. Remember that atmosphere I was talking about? The coaches here are the driving factor behind it and have earned respect, not asked for it. You won't come into this place and be forgotten about! Price: Can't beat it! At least for a Crossfit Membership. Yes, I do know, I count shit for a living, and it was a big factor when I initially chose CBCF. $115 for an individual. Discounted to $100 for Military (thank you btw) and students. $200 for 2 family Members. Why I chose Camelback Crossfit: See above read more

As good as it gets is right. Camelback CrossFit has it all: the coaches, the community, the equipment, the location, and the price. I've been CrossFitting for 5 years, and CBCF is among the top boxes I've ever been to. Their attention to individual athlete needs, and their ability to scale and push you to work on your weaknesses is bar none. The community is a great group of diverse people who will laugh with you and not judge you, whether you are a beginner or at the elite level. If you're in the South Scottsdale area, this is the gym for you. Can't recommend enough. read more

It's been almost 2 years and still, everyday. .. Matt, Rob, Dom (coaches) always, without fail, greet you with a smile. This place continues to inspire me to work hard and show up. How could you not enjoy coming to the gym when every single workout is difficult bit you're getting cheered on by your coaches and classmates? It's just great. And the coaching is constant with little tips to keep your form on cue. They've added a smoothie bar which offers delicious drinks. I'm still so happy I found this on my first foray into the crossfit community. read more

Dropped in while in town for work. Great space and even better people. Flexibility open gym times and friendly coaches!

Great gym, great coaches and great people. I dropped in and had awesome workouts at Camelback Crossfit! Highly recommend this gym!

Everyone is so nice, and welcoming. The workout was tough and challenging, with options to scale and get an amazing workout in. And the coaches are very knowledgeable and make sure everyone is working out safely and having fun. I would recommend this crossfit gym to anyone, even people who have never done crossfit before. read more

Hands down my favorite Crossfit gym. The trainers are amazing. I love the programming and the people. It's so clean and open and light. Plenty of space for everyone. I've been part of the CrossFit community for 8 years now. And camelback has everything I look for. Community, educated trainers, new equipment, happy and fun environment. Camelback crossfit is perfect if you'd want to drop in or become part of the camelback family. I hope this review helps with what you might be looking for. read more

I dropped in yesterday and am so glad I did - Robert (and everyone else in the gym) was so welcoming and introduced me and the other drop ins right away. He was super encouraging during a very tough workout, did a great job explaining the movements. I would highly recommend Camelback CrossFit! read more

What a great experience dropping in at CBCF. The staff was great, very welcoming. The classes were big but well managed by the coaches. The programming was solid as well. I've been to three other CF places in the greater Phoenix area and would rate CBCF as the best. Keep up the good work and I hope to see you all again soon. read more

Dropped into this place from out of town and loved it! The class sizes were awesome, everyone was incredibly nice, the coaches were great, they let me get a shirt and use that as my drop in fee. Nothing but great things to say about this place, I'll be sure if I'm back to drop in here again! Thanks to Matt and Robert for having me! read more

I was new to the area and had been at the same box for five years. Matt and Rob are awesome coaches, very welcoming, knowledgeable and care about their crossfit family. The facility is well taken care of and they provide great programming. read more

Great community, upbeat, & funny; very positive. After a good, long warmup, Matt Rhodes coached a WOD in my wife's wheelhouse but kicked my butt. Would definitely go back. A large area with many rigs necessary for the group size. read more

Love this gym. Used to be at a box in chandler and these guys do it better for less cost. Great location and awesome facility. They have me excited to work out again. Would recommend to anyone looking to find an affordable crossfit in Scottsdale or just trying to get involved with xfit. Beginner classes are very friendly and informative. Been crossfitting for a year and and am learning new things here every day. Best gym in the area. read more

There are a lot of great things to say about Camelback crossfit, great coaches, family atmosphere, very clean, great equipment, free tampons a plus in my book. But the coaches make a difference, they take the time to help you out with form and technique and encourage you thought the workout. Everyone is great. read more

Came in from out of town on vacation. I dropped in for a Saturday, Monday and Tuesday workout. The staff was friendly and knowledgable. The atmosphere was inviting, inclusive and fun! Facility is clean, bathrooms were clean too!! Lots of space and had tons of times for WODs and open gym!! read more

I've dropped into many Crossfit gyms and Camelback Crossfit stands tall amongst them all. Super friendly and accommodating with attentive coaching, (melissa was coaching during my class time) it's a good place to grab a quick WOD when in town. The facility is massive with plenty of equipment and and floor space. I will definitely be stopping by again, and I recommend you do as well. read more

I love this community!! When I started 4 years ago I was out of shape and overweight(no one told me this at the time!). Today, with the help of all the great coaches, I feel like the sky is the limit! If you're looking for a change form the same ol' boring gym workout, there is no better place than Camelback Crossfit! read more

If you are trying to challenge yourself, learn some technique and surround yourself with awesome people this is the perfect spot, i been training with CBCF for almost a year and its been and incredible experience. read more

Do yourself a favor and hit up this gym! The coaches, workouts and overall community are the best in the city. You'll thank me later!

I was looking for a new workout, new people to meet this place is awesome so far!!! Very welcoming and fun atmosphere you must join!

If I lived here this would be my home box without a doubt. The coaches are amazing, Matt, Rob and Jake are great people. Everyone here was super cool and I looked forward to coming in and leaving it on all on the floor. I can't say enough good things about this box and I can't wait till I get to come back! read more

Coach Rob's favorite music is country. ...This alone deserves 5 stars. But in all seriousness, I'm no true crossfitrer, but CBCF is the perfect crossfit gym to supplement my normal bodybuilding-style lifting with. Haven't been in very consistently due to jacking my back up (unrelated to their gym), but I always enjoy the challenge these guys put forward with their workouts when I do make it in. read more

Affordable. Friendly. Clean. Tons of space to do all kinds of WODs without feeling like you're going to drop something on the dude next to you. The coaches-Matt, Dom, and Robert- are knowledgeable and helpful. They are excellent coaches, and they are also good friends.The WODs kick my butt yet I keep coming back for more. Check out the free first class and get hooked just like the rest of us. See you there! read more

If you like being competitive and like that feeling of community at a CrossFit box this is the place to be. Great coaches and great programming. This box (gym) gives you the tools you need to achieve your goals whether that's competing, getting in shape, or whatever it may be. You get tons of support to work harder, lift heavier, and go faster. Don't believe me, stop by and experience it for yourself. read more

Probably one of my favorite places to be. I've been to quite a few crossfit gyms and this is one of the best. Thanks for having a 5 am class! read more

Great facility, incredible workout, friendly staff. We were in the area visiting and were not disappointed.
