can't say enough great things about Tim and his CrossFit gym! From day one, Tim's coaching has been exceptional. He focuses on proper technique and is always introducing new concepts to enhance our strength, cardio, and recovery. His dedication to our improvement is truly inspiring. The community at the gym is fantastic! It's not just about working out; we have so much fun together outside the gym as well. Whether it's hikes, marathons, or our annual Christmas parties, the camaraderie makes every experience memorable. If you're looking for a supportive environment where you can grow both physically and socially, this is the place to be. Thank you, Tim, for being such an amazing coach and creating a welcoming community! read more

Love this gym! My only regret is not discovering it sooner. I've lived in the area for 11 years and had no idea it was there. I tried a class through ClassPass and signed up for a full year membership after my very first session. I'd struggled to stay consistent at larger, corporate gyms, but Code 3 completely changed that for me. The group workouts, awesome coaches, and attention to proper form and personal goals make every class enjoyable and effective. I genuinely look forward to going. The energy from the other members is always great, and I get an amazing workout every time and I've noticed a difference after a year of going. read more

This place gets results!!! I started here about a year ago after my gym closed. The workouts were a little different and wasn't sure if this was the place for me. After about a year I have seen some great results. I have gained some strength back and managed to keep my weight under control but the greatest difference is that I have little or no knee, hip or back pain. The coaches here are great, they watch and make recommendations and adjustments even during the workout. Form is a major consideration, some small adjustments have helped my mobility and corrected some bad posture resulting in increased flexibility and less joint pain. Tim, the owner, is/was a high level competitive weightlifter so he is stresses good form before he has you lift heavy. The coaches ask if you have any concerns and will scale the workout so that you can avoid getting hurt and yet have a great workout. The members are welcoming and helpful, I was surprised how much energy there was at 6:00AM. There is a variety of equipment so if you need to approach an exercise differently, there are ways to do that. Probably the most interesting thing of all is that on some Friday's, the have donuts. This seem counterintuitive but after a tough workout, I think you deserve it!!! I highly recommend this gym to any one, regardless of fitness level that wants to get in shape and have fun doing it!!! read more

Been taking classes here for a little over a year now after the Gardena location closed down. Over that time I have seen improvement in strength, cardio, and weight loss. Tim provides information on nutrition to improve your overall health. Coach Tim and the rest of the coaching staff are very knowledgeable and will help individuals in accommodating the daily workouts to their skill levels. There is a variety of times for classes or you can sign up for individual personal training. All classes focus on a strength portion and conditioning portion that gives you a good heart rate throughout the workout. Members are inviting and will make the workout as fun as possible! We love to sign up for competitions and put out skills to the test amongst our peers. Want to start your journey on improving your health, no better place to start than at Code 3 Hawthorne!!! read more

My partner and I have an amazing time with Coach Tim and his team. They're responsive over the phone and make the classes very engaging. The group classes get me to really break a sweat and everyone in the group encourages you to finish strong. I got the $10 check-in deal on Yelp for a 7 day trial. I'm planning on continuing my classes! On the other hand, my partner does personal training with Coach Tim and introduced me to the gym. She's been really happy with his flexibility as her job is hectic and schedules changing every now and then. Despite a busy schedule, Coach Tim holds her accountable and gets her to come in consistently 3 times a week. We are both looking forward to getting back to our weight loss goals and healthier lifestyles. read more

I've been training at this gym for a year now, and it has been such an excellent experience. The facilities are top-notch with a lot of different equipment, and the wide range of services offered including nutrition guidance, Olympic lifting, and personal coaching. But what truly sets this place apart is Tim and the coaching expertise from all the staff. Tim's expertise and dedication have been instrumental in helping me get back in shape. His personalized training plans and constant encouragement have pushed me to achieve my best. Thanks to his guidance, I've been able to PR multiple lifts. The coaches make every workout session unique, productive, and enjoyable where I want to continue coming back. If you're looking for a gym where you want to improve yourself by looking and feeling better, this is the place to go. Worth every penny. read more

I've been at Code 3 for 2 years, and Tim at Code 3 is very helpful and knowledgeable. The environment is welcoming and each class has its own vibe. There's no other place to go to meet your goals and develop a love for a new hobby. Regardless of fitness level or ability the coaches at Code 3 works with you to ensure you are using the proper form and pushing yourself to your full potential. read more

So happy I gave this place a try one day after I decided I was tired of working out at home all the time. I have now been a member for several years and all the coaches I've met have been fantastic. I started pretty much as a beginner at several of the more technical lifts and the instruction and modifications given were great and helped me feel more confident. I had to pause my membership at one point due to an injury and wasn't sure I would be able to come back, but with Tim's encouragement I am back and stronger than ever, which has been a nice surprise! read more

Been going here for over a year to cross train for the other sports I do. Training here has given me stamina and competitive edge that my peers in my sports do not have. The focus on form and encouragement to push harder from Tim and the other coaches is amazing. I wish I lived closer so I could more often but I get so much out of my weekly sessions. I'm able to learn proper form and replicate when I have less time and have to work out at home. I've tried other gyms and they are softer and don't push you or encourage you to reach your potential the way they do at Code 3 Hawthorne . Grateful to my friend who introduced me to this place. Lifting and lifting heavy has been the secret ingredient for me to enhance my athletic performance to the next level. Thank you Tim and team! read more

Amazing first workout. Coach pushed me to my limits. A lot of equipment to use, very clean gym. read more

Code 3 Athletics Hawthorne - Entrance. - Gyms Near Me - Hawthorne, California

Love the culture of the gym, coach tim always has a great workout planned. It's been easy to fit into my busy packed schedule.

I joined Code 3, Hawthorne a little over a year ago when I started I was 160lbs I'm 5 feet so for my height overweight with high cholesterol. I couldn't run a lap to save my life. I'm proud to say I'm at 140 now and no longer have high cholesterol and my conditioning has never been better. I tried commercial gyms in the past I felt lost and overwhelmed by all the machines. Commercial gyms just didn't work for me I needed direction and support. And I swear you will get that at Code 3. Code 3 programming is perfect for beginners intermediate and advanced athletes since they can be scaled to your level. Tim takes the time to coach you through it all. He gives you the tools to start your fitness journey all YOU have to do is put in the work. I'm dyslexic and I struggle with direction but I was able to learn because of the support I got at code 3. My Teenage daughter recently joined as well and let me tell you coaching a teenager ain't easy. Tims's patience and persistence to coach you won't be found anywhere else. This gym is one of a kind. read more

Exactly what I'm looking for. Tim is very friendly and makes sure you're comfortable and doing the workout right and safe.

I've tried regular global gyms and I always end up coming back home to Code 3. There is just something about working out together as a group that encourages you to try harder and makes you want to go back the next day. It honestly feels like a gym family. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. The coaches are the absolute best! They take the time to know what you're capable of and push you just enough to help you get stronger. Don't believe me?

I've been a member of Code 3 Hawthorne for 1.5 yrs. Code 3 Hawthorne has given me the motivation and confidence to achieve my fitness goals! Code 3 Hawthorne has such dedicated coaches that ensure that you are doing the workouts correctly, and give you guidance in how to meet your weight loss goals. I'm 35 yrs old with 2 children and I've lost 20 lbs and counting. I feel healthier and stronger than ever, having joined Code 3. read more

As someone who has been to multiple gyms.. I think Code 3 is probably the best gym I have ever attended. We stopped by one day on my day off to see what it was about. Tim, the owner, stopped working out just to speak with us. He was nice, straight to the point. The workouts are great. Tim is really patient when explaining new workouts and movements. Everyone who attends this gym is nice and will give you good feedback to improve yourself. For example: when squatting, someone may come up to you and mention how to improve your posture. I love how he explains certain workouts and breaks them down to simplify the movements. Step by step, no rush here, but learn quickly! You can definitely tell that he enjoys what he does. And as Tim mentioned before, we don't do cute things in this gym. read more

If you are serious about stregth training, this is the place to be! I look forward to my workouts! Coach Tim and his staff of trainers are awesome! He explains the workouts, and is very patient and encouraging. Code 3 Athletics is the Best! ‍‍‍ read more

After quarantine hit, my fiancé and I were looking for a way to be more active. We started walking around the neighborhood until one day saw the sign at Code 3 offering a free trial session. We decided to call the number to see what it was about. Tim called me back, and we discussed fitness goals and was super stoked to have us come in. After just one session, we had found our new place to work out. Tim was super patient with us, and helped us out every single step of the way. After a month in, I became much stronger than I was when I started. My spirit was uplifted from newfound confidence. I can't say enough great things about this place, so I guess I'll finish it by saying this; if you've been looking for a gym, give this place a try. You'll be glad you did. read more

I went here on a Class Pass to try it out. Classes, especially strength training, can be super intimidating. But not Code 3, and definitely not Tim, the trainer. Group classes also can be easy places to get injured as there is one trainer for the entire class. But Tim made me feel very comfortable, and had a careful eye on me the entire time to be sure I was doing each exercise correctly. I sincerely appreciated his attentiveness! And now the class- super fun! And it went by so quickly! GREAT workout, GREAT music, and everyone in there was chill. Very inviting, very non-intimidating. Thank you to Tim, I will be back. Try this gym! It will not disappoint. read more

Love coming here! Tim is an awesome coach. He teaches technique well and really motivates you. Everyone is friendly, welcoming and respectful! read more

I've been going to conventional gyms for as long as I can remember. They became dull overtime so naturally it was hard to remain consistent. I sought out something different and came across Code 3 Athletics. I've been going frequently for 3 weeks now and cannot express what a breath of fresh air this place is. Tim and his entire staff are very welcoming and dedicated in ensuring all their clients progress. They are there every step of the way well equipped to offer guidance. The workout routines are never the same, which keeps things refreshing. I've been very happy with my results and will continue developing myself under their wing. read more

Joined Code 3 about 2 months ago. I was a member at another Box prior, Tim Johnson the Head Coach/Owner at Code 3 is amazing and really breaks down movements to help athletes improve. His compassion for training really shows. Great Box, gOoD equipment #gEt SoMe read more

See all

I love this place so much! I was looking for a new workout regimen because I was taking a circuit class before this and felt like I was hitting a plateau with my strength training. I wanted something more challenging AND a place that had a really good community. A friend had mentioned CODE 3 and I emailed Tim. He got back to me right away and gave me a week free trial. I was sold on the very first day. I had never touched a bar before CODE 3... but with time and constant encouragement and feedback I'm doing things that I NEVER thought I would be doing at WEIGHTS I didn't think were possible for me. And I am still improving. Tim has a good gauge on where to put you and when to move you up. The people here are great too. It's a family where people sweat and laugh together. Tim creates a friendly and welcoming environment for everyone (even when he kills you with the daily workouts haha) read more

After having 2 kids, I was looking to get back into shape and shed some of the baby weight. Unfortunately, I'm not as blessed as some of my friends where the weight just melts off. I found this gym and decided to try it out and see if it would work for me. Tim (owner and head coach) was amazing from the start. He chatted with me to discuss my fitness goals and my current fitness level (which was pretty crappy since I hadn't worked out in the 3 years after having kids). The first week was TOUGH but awesome. You definitely get sore, but it's rewarding to know that you are working your body and change is happening :) After trying it out, I was hooked.. Here are some of my pros: -People. This is a major thing for me... everyone is friendly, nice and not "judgey". Whether you are super fit or looking to make a change in your life, the people here are all in the same boat and just looking to get a good workout in. Everyone "suffers" together in the workout :) -Coaching is top notch. Tim is patient and actually coaches and gets you in the right form. I've been to other gyms where the coaches are on their phones and not really attentive to the members during class. This isn't the case at Code 3. I get plenty of feedback on my form and it's reassuring to know that I'm doing the movements properly and more importantly SAFELY. -It's clean. This seems pretty fundamental, but it's actually really hard to find a clean gym. -In addition to coaching, Tim also has a nutrition group on FB and he's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to how to fuel your body in order to get the results you are looking for. -It works. Since going consistently the past month, I've lost about 7 pounds. No, it's not easy, but if you put in the time it works! If it's your first time, don't worry too much. Everyone starts somewhere and Tim is great with explaining and demonstrating each and every movement. He also scales the movements to your level of fitness so it's not too intimidating and daunting to get started. Overall, if you are looking to kickstart your fitness or to make some gains to your current fitness level, Code 3 is a great place to go. Awesome community, great programming of workouts, and quality management and ownership. read more

Tim is knowledgeable and has been in the business for years! He maintains a clean facility and always communicates well with his members

Started Code 3 Hawthorne around 2 months ago and it has been a great experience. Tim is awesome and with his help I've been losing weight and getting stronger. The motivation and support from everyone at the box is also amazing. Looking forward to continuing along this lifelong journey! Update: its been 9 months since i started Code 3 Athletics in Hawthorne! Ive lost 70lbs and ive gotten stronger and faster! Tim is still amazing and so is everyone else! Its been great watching how the box has grown! read more

I joined Code 3 in January of this year. It's always been hard for me walking into a new gym/ box for the very first time. You don't know anyone there or what to expect. You have no idea where all the equipment goes or what the workout of the day is going to be. For me, coming into Code 3 was refreshing. When I started I was really out of shape, but immediately felt comfortable and welcome by Tim the owner/ Head coach, and all the other members who were there. Tim is able to scale the workouts for me so that I can participate at my current level. He makes necessary corrections and is really approachable when I have questions about certain workouts. Tim is always attentive and makes sure that safety is a priority. I'm still working towards reaching a lot of my fitness goals. It Is nice to feel supported, confident and comfortable as I'm working towards them. Everyone I've met is super encouraging of one another, and I always look forward to seeing everyone in class. I highly recommend Code 3 to anyone looking for a positive place to have fun and workout. read more

Attending Code 3 has been a life changing experience ! Started my journey back in February, and still going strong. The people here have become a second family. They are welcoming and help you out all the way! Being a beginner can be intimidating but all the positive vibes and help from Coach Tim help you get over that! The workouts are great!! You wake up in pain each day but you keep coming back!!!!! read more

The code 3 family has changed my life for the better. I'm stronger, leaner, and faster than ever. The atmosphere is friendly, clean, and always inviting. I can't see myself workout out anywhere else. read more

Tim is as good as it gets when achieving your fitness goals. I lost 30 pounds due to an illness, and wanted to put the weight back on of all things. lol. I hired Tim as a personal trainer and eventually started going to Code 3 on a regular basis. Not only did I put the weight back on, I am stronger than ever and feel great! Whether you want to lose weight, or get stronger, or both, Tim and Code 3 are where its at. read more

I liked meeting Tim but I did not enjoy the workout, atmosphere or feel comfortable there. After my first trial class he said several times that he would call me the next day and he didn't which surprised me as I am in decent shape and don't have much weight to lose. This place is not a fit for me and the equipment hurts your hands too, so do a trial before joining. read more

Great gym! I started with Tim at Code 3 to get in shape before my wedding and so far I've dropped 30+lbs and have gone from a size 14-16 to a size 10! I was able to fit into my dream dress and felt great rocking all my bathing suits on the honeymoon. I've always struggled with my weight and I've never been an athlete, but with Tim's guidance and killer workouts I've been able to change my lifestyle, keep the weight off as I continue striving for new goals, and I even had the confidence to crush a competition! Code 3 Hawthorne also offers a wonderful and supportive community filled with great people, making the workouts fun to do together while inspiring each other to succeed! read more

Best gym ever! I joined 2 years ago and I have seen results. Thanks to Tim Johnson! I recommend this place to all my friends and family.
