This is not like all the CrossFit hype and gimmicky gyms out there, this is pure physical improvement, strength and preparation. The group training classes are energetic and can be very challenging if you push yourself, but the beauty of the workout is that you can take any of the exercises at your own pace. I loved that people of all physical levels can be in the same class and really get a great workout. Additionally, their Krav Maga self-defense offering is the best upstate NY has to offer. Marc D. is a former Army Ranger and has been training law enforcement, athletes and people of all ages for a very long time. He truly is an expert in his craft, not to mention quite a funny, personable guy. Their active shooter training program over the summer with the Saratoga County Sherrif's department was incredibly informative and I obtained many helpful tips that I can quickly apply in a life-or-death situation. If you want to transform your body, as well as, learn the best self-defense training out there (i.e. Krav Maga), definitely check out K2Strong. Russ and Marc are genuine local businessmen who provide a great service and are building a quality community. It's a breath of fresh air from the Planet Fitness and Crunch gyms that are so ubiquitous upstate NY.

This place is awesome. If you want to really learn self-defense...like REALLY learn it....try some…read moreof the Krav classes. Instructors are friendly, knowledgable and badass (in a good way). Krav Maga is not a "pretty" martial art...it's practical. It's an Israeli system that focuses on street fighting skills and realistic, life-threatening situations (which you certainly hope to never be in). They also have fitness classes that focus less on the self defense and more on getting in shape. Either way, if you're a regular here, you'll get in shape. There are plenty of classes to choose from so any schedule can be accommodated.

Thanks to his classes and instruction, my fitness level has dramatically increased and I no longer have any pain in my left knee, a problem I had been dealing with for years. I definitely recommend and vouch for Ben and hope all of you reading this give his classes and personal training sessions a chance.

Then I felt as if I hit a plateau and reached out to Ben for help. Since I have lost over an additional 50lbs. With Ben's knowledge he taught me how to eat properly, count my daily intake on foods and how to work out without getting injured. I continue to strive to reach my goal with the success of Ben's knowledge. I work out with him 5 days a week with his 20min HITT classes. I was one who kept telling myself I can't do this, and here I am a year later kicking butt. It's a life style change and I am greatful for having him as my trainer. So what are you waiting for sign up now, you won't regret it!

As for the owner who lives for this place. It shows that he has nothing but love for his job & the people who walk in the doors.

I was a member of CrossFit Shatter in 2024. There are two bathrooms inside the facility. One is…read moreintended for women, and the other for men. Whomever is using it, male or female, standard protocol is to lock the doors when in use at a public facility. Let me take you on a story which includes a gym member named "Creeper" by other gym goers and a management who has failed to protect their female customer base. This story will leave you disappointed whether you have a daughter, sister, wife, or mother. Often times woman battle to be heard or taken seriously when they voice up. They are not believed, or their complaints are viewed as "just complaining", or "they take things too personally." I am voicing up about this to protect the next woman-these predators start out as exposing themselves, and then evolve into physically touching. I attend an evening gym session at Crossfit Shatter. Before the actual group workout, I decide to use the restroom. Upon arriving, the women's restroom door was unlocked and I entered. I observed a young male squatting on top of the toilet with no pants on, exposing his genitals and conveniently facing the door-as if waiting for someone to enter. It was clear he was an "exhibitionist", and waiting for his next female victim. The members were on to something. This was the person they labeled "Creeper". After leaving the facility and calling the location's manager, it was clear he did not deem this situation as alarming. He questioned whether it was even a crime and relayed he cared about the gym's reputation. Most concerning is being told this individual was kicked out from his previous gym. When I realized nothing was going to be done to address this issue, and protect other female members, I asked for my membership to be revoked. It was granted without penalty. I asked other female gym members if they experienced anything with "Creeper". Two of them stated yes. During those incidents he was in the bathroom with the light off, door slightly ajar and he had no shirt on. As if he was testing the waters. Placing a label "Women", "Men" above the bathroom doors does not solve the problem. The bigger issue here is not respecting women and not stopping the victimization.

I've put off writing a review for too long... I think one reason why is because I have so many…read morefeelings about this place... Crossfit Shatter has been the catalyst for one of the most amazing life changes I've ever committed to - making myself and my health a priority in a way that honors health, fitness, and community above just a number on the scale. I started attending Crossfit Shatter last fall, but I made a commitment to regular attendance in January (I can confirm, you get out of crossfit what you put into it). I am so much stronger, healthier, and happier than I was just one year ago. I look forward to going to the gym every time I go and that can be attributed to the great people who teach and attend classes at Shatter. Shane and Lucille have built a gym and a community that is unlike any other. I love going to class. I always sweat, am challenged to improve and constantly amaze myself. I'm doing things I never thought possible. Shatter is now not just "the gym" - it is the place I go to work out aggression after a tough day at the office, it is a place I go to see friends, and it is a place I feel powerful and optimistic about my health and my future. People reading this may think I don't have anything to compare Shatter to, which would be incorrect. I've visited 3 other gyms and, yes, overall crossfit consistently delivers on community, training and support. However, Shatter takes that community and combines it with outstanding technical training, forward thinking programming taking into account athlete weaknesses and strengths, and supportive tight-knit community combined with humor, making Shatter truly something special. Crossfit is difficult no matter what gym you belong to. Stick with it. The way you will grow, learn and develop (at any age or skill level) to become an athelete will amaze you. Shatter will do all that expertly, while also making working out fun!

I did their Launch Program which was an awesome jump start to getting into the classes. I have had trouble in the past sticking to a workout routine, as I'm sure a lot of people do. That has not been the case since I started going to CRL, its addicting. The coaches and people are amazing. Everyone is super welcoming and no matter if you are in great shape or just starting out the workouts are manageable/challenging, its really all about how much YOU want to push yourself. Along with crossfit they also offer spartan, olympic weightlifting, and mobility classes which are just as awesome. The coaches are all very knowledgable and want to help you be the best you can be. You can tell they love what they do. Melissa and Sam started something great here. I cannot say enough good things about this place!
