Carlsbad Crossfit - Pull ups - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Carlsbad, California

This is the most welcoming place! I was a total newbie and I felt at home from day one. There's a wide range of ages and fitness levels there so it doesn't feel intimidating being there. The coaches are great and really pay attention to form and small details so much that I've made major improvements in workouts I thought I had been doing right for years. Was planning on only going once a week and now I look forward to being there every day just to feel good physically and mentally. Go! It'll feel like home. read more

I've been around the CrossFit community for 15+ years. Had some personal issues, moved out of state and back. Took 4 years off. Walked into Carlsbad CrossFit to try out the free week in October 2022 and never left. Coaches are some of the best in any CrossFit or gym. They care about us as people and it shows. Everyone is welcoming and genuine. Any day that I cannot go due to work travel, I miss the workout, of course. But, I really miss seeing the friends I've made here. Definitely worth trying out! read more

I joined Carlsbad Crossfit 3 weeks ago and am so glad I found this group! The athletes and coaches have been beyond welcoming to me. Although I'm brand new to crossfit, the coaches have embraced me for where I'm at in my fitness journey, given me lots of guidance and coaching on the workout movements, and continue to encourage me to achieve more than I know I have to give. I highly recommend Carlsbad Crossfit! read more

This community is awesome. The programming phenomenal. I have been a member since 2013, but had recently stepped away for a couple years to focus on my wife and her battle with cancer. Coming back to this community has been instrumental in the grieving process. read more

My husband and I just started at Carlsbad Crossfit 3 months ago and have been nothing but impressed by the coaches and community. Ever since walking in, Coach Jeff, Rick, Jen, Kim, G, Mason have been welcoming and dedicated to helping us improve our form on the exercises. They are also super encouraging and excited to see us each day! My husband and I have already seen improvement in our abilities and strength. We truly look forward to going to each class. I love the options of class times and the fact that, if needed, I can bring my kiddos and let them entertain themselves while I get my workout in. The gym has always been supportive and they do a great job at making everything FUN. The other members are super motivating and it has been a great community for us. THANK YOU CARLSBAD CROSSFIT!! read more

I've been coming to Carlsbad CrossFit for almost 3 years now. Our awesome coaches have helped me to reach new heights whether it's been my physical ability or confidence in myself, I've also found family in this gym too. If you're looking to push yourself, learn from some of the best, and have fun doing it...you definitely should check out Carlsbad CF. read more

Carlsbad CrossFit has been my gym family for over 7 years. As one of the coaches there, I continue to stick around because I love the programming, the other hard working coaches, and the incredible community of athletes. The gym is often filled with like-minded people of all ages... people who have made a commitment to themselves... people who strive to challenge their limitations... people who put their best effort into proper technique and safe practices. I love coaching the crew at C2. They are supportive of one another and super welcoming of both newbies and drop-ins. Our coaching staff is very well-versed in proper dynamic warmups, appropriate modifications, and correct technique. And all coaches are consistently working on continuing education and improvement in their craft. We all learn from each other as well. I love that our classes can accommodate both beginners and advanced athletes at the same time. Because coaches have the skill to break down the basics, while also remaining involved/observant enough to throw some feedback at the veteran CrossFitters. Our owners have been creating more opportunities for social outings and community workshops... so Carlsbad CrossFit is always trying to be attentive to the needs of the people who call it home. We would love for you to come give us a try! read more

This gym has truly grasped all of the pillars and concept of a crossfit "box" -- making class the best hour of your day, forging elite fitness, building a community, and always striving to be better than yesterday. The members are the heartbeat of this place and you can find any age - from kids practicing weightlifting with their parents to an awesome member Jim who is 80+ years old. Very welcoming environment to all (including dogs), the coaches are passionate and excited to coach, the programming is a great mix of challenging yet scalable, and just enough to keep you coming back to get better. In the best of ways, this gym leans more toward the style of an old school crossfit gym and that's what keeps me coming back! read more

The coaching, daily workouts and positive environment has kept me going back for over six years. I'm so happy this C2 exists. Rick and his team have created something special in the CrossFit ecosystem. All different physical abilities, working out at the same time in one gym and having fun doing it. When your workout parter just celebrated his 80th birthday and he is setting the pace of the workout - you know it's something special. read more

I started out as an athlete, then a coach and now part owner of this gym. I love our community and our coaches and believe Carlsbad CrossFit has so much to offer anyone who desires fitness in their life no matter what level they are. Whether you are 15, 50 or 85, this gym can meet you where you're at and help you achieve your fitness goals! read more

Love being a member here! The community, coaches, and workouts are great! For me, it's the warmups and making sure that we are primed to go that l really sets the bar. read more

Great coaches, always looking out for good form and proper lifting. Effective Programming! I highly recommend!

Such a welcoming, epic CrossFit gym! Jen, Jeff, Kim, Mason and all the coaches and owners are just fantastic. They are all so helpful whenever someone needs to modify the workouts. It's been a joy to workout here the past couple years! read more

The gym is set up wonderful with great flow; awesome vibe and inviting coaches and athletes. The coaches are very attentive and demonstrate a deep understanding of what they are teaching. We fell in love with the box while we vacationed and once we decided to move to the area the impression it left on us helped us to factor in where we chose to live. We have not been let down and know it is home for all of our future fitness journey. read more

I've had more results going here for 3 months than I did going to the gym for years! As an older woman (60 something) I just started going to Vista/Carlsbad CrossFit to get healthier! Improve my heart function, fight osteoporosis and get better endurance! After multiple one-on-one sessions I was ready to attend classes. The Coach that runs each class reviews the movements for each class and "scales" the movements and weights for each participant before the class starts. So the class is basically tailored for each person. And the coaches are SO nice and extremely helpful! I've been attending for about 3 months and not only have I lost a few pounds but I'm also so much trimmer! And I actually LIKE going to class! It's a tough workout but it goes by so fast and you feel so great after the class! So for anyone that wants to get get in shape, this is the place for you! read more

Super awesome spot to get a sweat on while in the beachy city of Carlsbad. Easy to get to and plenty of space to do all the CrossFit things. Coaching is phenomenal. I have been to quite a few CrossFit and CrossFit type gyms in my time and Rick puts them all to shame. If you are curious about CrossFit or are an experienced CrossFitter or just interested in bettering yourself, come by Carlsbad CrossFit. You will be welcomed with open arms and will definitely learn a thing or two. read more

Carlsbad Crossfit - CrossFit - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Carlsbad, California

Been meaning to write this review for long time. I've known Rick since 2016, training with him on and off and exploring other trainers and gyms in between. Rick consistently outshines. Rick is an excellent trainer who takes his job very serious. Safety and warm-ups are of paramount importance, he thoroughly explains and demonstrates each movement, he carefully observes your limits then makes sure to maximize your workout. Rick emphasizes importance of nutrition and is extremely knowledgeable in meal planning and clean eating. If you are seeking 5 star, sustainable training in N. County SD, look no further than Carlsbad CrossFit/Rick G. read more

Awesome CrossFit gym and all of the coaches/owners are extremely helpful and passionate about what they do. I have been part of the Carlsbad CrossFit location for about a year and a half. Having no prior experience and being a bit older I was not sure what to expect and a little intimidated. They are very welcoming and attentive and are great at modifying to meet your skill level. It's a fun environment with people of all ages and skill levels and the owners are very accommodating. If you are looking for a place checkout Carlsbad CrossFit! read more

Carlsbad CrossFit ("C2") is my fantastic home box. Owners are great, coaches are super and the community is amazing! If you're new to CrossFit, regardless of age, come check out C2. I'm a regular Noon'r which has an age range of 25-to-57 on a typical day. And if you're looking to change things up with your training, the great combination of nutrition, mobility, strength and endurance training will make a difference. I'm 50yo and in the best shape of my life! read more

Carlsbad Crossfit - Interval Training Gyms Near Me - Carlsbad, California

My first CrossFit experience and I am officially hooked. Everyone has been nothing but welcoming. The coaches took the time to work with me on fundamentals and were so patient. As a newbie it can be a little intimidating but I psyched myself out, they are there to help and motivate. It was nice to see the positive encouragement throughout the entire gym! They are willing to work with you and reach out so much to help. That has been the best part, they want you to succeed and help anyway they can. Excited to be apart of Carlsbad CrossFit. read more

I cannot say enough about how amazing this place is. The coaches are great - and they pay attention to you throughout your workout, no matter your skill level. The community is great and everyone is incredibly supportive. When I came in the door, I was probably in the worst shape of my life and every time I struggled there was someone (lots of them actually) encouraging me not to give up. At first, I really struggled with everything and the coaches gave me the attention I needed to improve (and, most importantly, not hurt myself). C2 is a truly great place - it's made an incredible difference in both my fitness and my life! read more

I have been to many of the Crossfit boxes in the area and the coaching and community at Carlsbad Crossfit is by far the best. I'm in my 50's and after two years of scaling movements like handstand push-ups, the coach's spent time with me and now I can do them as well as many other movements I thought I could never do. When it comes to oly and power lifting with the coach's help I have moved past plateaus and I am now PR'ing every month if not weekly from the great Programing and coaching! If your a novice, mid or competitive athlete this is your box and you will be challenged. The community is great and very inclusive both in and out of the box. If you want a strong community and a lot of choices for out of the box social activity we have it! 5 Star! read more

First time Crossfit experience - Friendly & Helpful Staff, Comfortable Team Enviornment. One thing I always wondered, prior to going to a Crossfit was how intimidating it would be. A gym full of hard body monsters making regular people feel out of place. Definitely not the case at this gym. Each staff member was very friendly and helpful, never leaving you with questions about where you should be and what you should be doing. The environment was great, people of all exercise levels were there and never did I feel out of place (even though it was my first class). I definitely plan on going again and would encourage anyone considering a Crossfit, or even just a workout change, check out Carlsbad Crossfit! read more

I've been working out here for 5 months now. It's the best gym experience I've ever had. I grew up playing team sports through college, and I'm a Marine, so I know what it means to go through an intense, meaningful workout. At the same time, I'm married with two kids, so I also appreciate an efficient workout. Carlsbad Crossfit is friendly to fire breathers and families, which makes it a great fit for anyone. The staff is very friendly and approachable. No one is left in the dust; they make sure everyone is prepared for the workouts and they scale workouts for individuals as needed. If you are an intermediate/advanced athlete, they will push you to work harder and get better without being overbearing. Carlsbad Crossfit also has a good team atmosphere, and everyone is always encouraging. I have not been a member of any other crossfit affiliate, so I can't compare, but I'd argue it's probably hard to beat the people and programming at Carlsbad Crossfit. read more

I was traveling for work in the Carlsbad area before Thanksgiving. There are a good amount of crossfit boxes in the area, but Ricks' attention to detail on his WOD posts grabbed my attention. The community at the box was great. Everyone is friendly and welcoming and there are some beasts destroying WODs. Rick and Lindsay were probably the friendliest people I've met and Kip was also an awesome couch. Rick's knowledge and coaching ability are unmatched. I've been to a few crossfit boxes, and Rick is one of the best. Usually when traveling I'm just looking to get in a workout while being away from home, but I truly learned a lot being coached by Rick. If you're looking for a Box to call home, this is your place. read more

I'm a traveling cross-fitter and stopped in to do a class at Crossfit Carlsbad this week. The box is centrally located in a semi-industrial area and although it is small it has all the equipment and space that you would need. Lindsay was coaching the class and she was super nice and welcoming towards me. CrossFit Carlsbad is a small box that has only been open around 6 months, but it is clear that they have a good coaching and community focused philosophy. The 9 am class that I attended only had 3 people, so a lot of the instruction and coaching was tailored to the audience which was nice. Great Crossfit Box - would recommend to other traveling cross fitters or any locals wanting to get in shape with some top quality strength and conditioning training! Thanks team! read more

Good CrossFit gym comes with good coaching. Stopped by for a noon class the other day and Chris (owner/coach) was welcoming. He was very detailed with his instructions treated his members as family. Definitely stop by the gym to check it out. read more

I dropped into Carlsbad Crossfit when in town for work. This box is very welcoming and has great programming. Mason was very attentive, friendly and helpful. I will definitely stop back when I'm in town next. read more

Great box. I drop in to at least a dozen boxes a year and this is among the best. We were treated like family and got spot on coaching from Rick, one of the owners. The members were friendly and welcoming. I strongly recommend it for drop ins and if I lived here I'd join for sure! read more

I have been a CrossFiter for about 3 years and I recently made Carlsbad CrossFit my home gym. The coaching expertise along with the friendly environment is one in which I continue to progress and excel as an individual competitor and athlete. Each session is structured and formulated in such a way that I am able to focus on building my strength, endurance, technique and have PR'd on several of my Olympic lifts. The support, encouragement and specific focus is an added bonus to my daily workouts. If you're looking to grow and progress as an athlete and meet some pretty awesome people along the way, or if you're just wanting to figure out what CrossFit is, Carlsbad CrossFit is the perfect place for you! read more

I dropped in today for a 10:30 AM WOD while visiting from LA. This is a great box with a very welcoming community and excellent coaching. I stayed about 45 minutes after the WOD to chat because they were so nice and I was happy to get to know them a little better. I would highly recommend this box and will visit again next time I'm in town. Thanks, Rick and Lindsey! read more

This place is GREAT! My husband and I stopped in for our first class and Trish was coaching. We are brand new to Crossfit and had no idea what we were doing, but Trish really took her time to explain the workouts. I was a little intimidated about going in because honestly I had no idea what to expect, but the people in the class and the coaches Rick & Trish (didn't get to meet Chris and/or the other coaches?) were awesome! It was a welcoming comfortable experience. The workout was very challenging but extremely fun! I injured my shoulder at the beginning of the year and Trish made sure she asked how my shoulder was feeling through the workout. The coaches truly care about your form and well-being at Carlsbad Crossfit. It was an awesome experience and I cannot wait to go back for my next class. read more

Love me some Crossfit Carlsbad! The coaches are an amazing combination of extremely friendly and highly knowledgeable. I don't live in Carlsbad, but I ended up being in town for one of the open workouts. Coach Chris was extremely accommodating and enthusiastically judged me for the workout. I have family in Carlsbad, so I now have a great gym to look forward to for each visit. Highly, highly recommend this place! read more

Great place to drop in if your in the area (My father and I were from Phoenix, Arizona). Rick and Chris are top of the line instructors. Both of them were really attentive to posture, correct form and most importantly they knew the science of the body which is typically unusual for the mediocre crossfit trainer. They noticed many of my flexibility issues, mainly to do with my hamstrings to glutes to lower back. Rick stayed about an hour after the wod to give my dad and I some stretches and mobility exercises to work on for our areas of weakness. Great classes, welcoming and positive atmosphere and coaching was more than fantastic!! I will definitely be going back there when we travel out to the San Diego area again. read more

Out bar hopping tonight and got carded twice. Thank you Carlsbad crossfit. I went from couch potato to double unders, hand stand push ups, 32 inch box jumps, rope climbs, and oh... Heavy ass weights. Great coaching, fun crowd, good times. read more
