I recently joined this gym and cannot be happier. I was a little bit nervous as I am new to…read moreCrossFit but that nervousness quickly went away. Butch and the rest of his staff are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and awesome. I have learned a lot in the first week and now know that every exercise can be modified to work for you! For example: I cannot do pullups but there are alternate exercises that get those same muscles working in hopes that one day I can accomplish them! All of the members have been very welcoming and the staff makes sure that they are providing tips so you are doing each and every exercise properly and safely. The gym is extremely clean and they ensure that everyone is following the proper protocols for Covid. I look forward to attending many more classes! They offer a free trial class so come check it out =)

Today I joined my friend for a Saturday workout! Let's keep in mind I am an experienced CROSSFITER…read moreand know what's what. This place is all the legit ness! The coach today was John and was great! I can definitely tell he is a good coach h e was walking around correcting and encouraging all of us. I am also very big on vibes! This gym had good vibes only! Not for nothing it's 7 degrees out today and the gym was packed! I freaking love it! The workout was solid today as well the strength portion was hang power cleans 5 sets of 5 I was able cycle through. The workout was 5 HPC, 200m row, and. 8 toes To bar. I was able to do the workout RX or as written the weight for the bar was heavy 105 for girls. I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for a gym. I'm happy at my current gym but I will say this place was defiantly well ran. The owner even put thought into how the lay out was to encourage new people. The squares are genius Hmmmm and efficient I would definitely pay to drop in here again! Also I was not freezing in the place! Nice! I was bummed when my friend didn't pick my gym ....but after today I can kind of understand her gravitation to this place! I will for sure at some point be back!

I love Grounded CrossFit! The instructors Lindsay and Patrick are awesome. They are attentive to…read moreyour individual needs and work with you based on your current level of fitness to help you improve and get stronger. I have been going since the beginning of the year and have no complaints. I even like the size of the space compared to other boxes and can't forget to mention that they have a basketball hoop!!! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a gym or fitness center in the Columbia, Elkridge, Jessup, and Hanover area.

I don't recommend this gym if you're a beginner. They do a great job making you feel welcome before…read moreyou sign up, and they use all the right words to get you to join, but my experience completely changed after that. Patrick came off as really motivated and interested in helping me reach my fitness goals at first. After about a week, though, it felt like that interest disappeared. He seemed lazy and wasn't nearly as involved or helpful as he was in the beginning. As a beginner, I was expecting more coaching and guidance, not less. The one bright spot was Natalie. She was always willing to help, answer questions, and make sure people were taken care of. She genuinely cares, and honestly, I think she should be running the place because she does a much better job with members. Overall, I left feeling like they cared more about getting people to sign up than actually supporting them once they became members.

Great gym!!! I came here on a Groupon and it was a overwhelming coming from other crossfit gyms in…read morethe area! I can say they're friendlier to beginners here. You get accustomed to the space after a few months. Try their Groupon and if you love it, stay!Members. When there're way too many people in a class, they're excellent with help and don't let you feel dumb or bothered when they help. Just leave it to lay people to help another layman out! My classmates are great and they make every workout worth it. They're some members who have a personal program and it's fun to watch them! There was one girl we miss now who post her workout everyday from this gym. She said it's "discouraging members" and she stopped doing it. (It was never discouraging if anything ENcouraging to see normal members workout on their own) Definitely members to look up to! The building layout is great! They have a waiting area with couches and a couple of tables to eat at. The billeting board is outdated with pictures of members we never see anymore. The bathrooms are a perfect size, we never need to wait for a stall! Always clean! They have activities over the weekends! It's a great space to come workout! They should hold weekend activities with all day workouts! And finally to make this review an honest review. There's one issue I find with this crossfit gym is the lead coach is so arrogant. (I can say this because he wrote out all his qualifications for his lifetime of fitness courses so he can tell you to vote for him as best coach in Howard County.) That was just obnoxious and a obvious demand for his cohorts to read his certifications. He doesn't necessarily like particular coaches with different personalities and fun approaches. There was so much wrong with that but its a internal fight with myself to continue coming so don't let him "discourage" you, the rest of the coaches are excellent, humble, and the real reasons why members continue coming to Top Tier!

Top Tier Columbia does an exceptional job of sanitizing equipment and maintaining cleanliness…read more EVERY class, the Coach welcomes Athletes with mask-on and takes everyone's temperature outside the huge workout space. Top Tier easily accommodates a class of 20 athletes, all properly distanced six feet apart, with plenty of equipment for everyone. The Coach leads Athletes through a targeted warm up (specific to the goals of training that day), strength workout (e.g. deadlift/squat/clean/snatch/etc.), and then an intense CrossFit style workout of the day. After all Athletes finish, the Coach leads them in cleaning/sanitizing all equipment and putting it away, followed by a targeted cool down. Since COVID-19 hit, many of my friends, colleagues, and peers were worried about reentering a gym for fear of catching the virus or lack of cleanliness, but the Top Tier staff is working hard to ensure the safety of all Athletes who want to improve themselves.

As someone who dedicates their life to work and exploring new food spots, working out has never…read morebeen my forte. I am a notorious quiter. If I struggle at something athletic, I am usually the first person to determine my time would be better spent completing work tasks not done during the work day. Turning 30, I decided I needed a change and signed up for the Southern Maryland CrossFit "Fall Into Fitness" Special. The "Fall Into Fitness" Special included unlimited classes for six weeks totalling $125.00 per person. My husband agreed to do it with me as support for a new step we both knew was going to be a struggle for me. Walking into Southern Maryland CrossFit, I did not know what to think but I was immediately greeted by Coach Amy who wove humor into her customer service paperwork requirements to help ease the obvious anxiety I was feeling upon walking in. Once you leave the small office, the entire remainder of the space is dedicated to work out space and equipment. Classes are on a rolling basis so when one is ending, the next class is preparing to warm up while other members are on the perimeter doing independent lifting tasks (ie. bench press, squats, overhead press). Warm ups are similar each day allowing for members to have some similarity and focus on the other components of the work out for the day. Each day of the week is different at Southern Maryland CrossFit and each coach works to support every members at their individual level/area of need. As a noob, each coach works with me on my form and help me scale the work out to a reasonable level (even when I am feeling spunky and try to go too heavy too soon). The coaches suggest members use a notebook of some sort to track their individual working weights and PRs; but if maintaining a notebook isn't your style (or you frequently forget where you put things), Southern Maryland CrossFit posts photos of their daily board onto their Facebook page. Overall, Southern Maryland CrossFit is extremely active on their website and social media platforms posting the daily work out, daily work out results, and even weekly messages from the owners! After a few months at Southern Maryland CrossFit, I feel stronger but something more important happened: I started to feel like part of a community. Each member is friendly, social, supportive, and down to help/scale with anyone whether you're new or a seasoned CrossFit participant. Even during the Corona Virus (COVID19) Pandemic, the Southern Maryland CrossFit Coaches and members have online virtual workout plans, virtual workout challenges, video meet ups, and frequent social media engagement. If you're a CrossFit kind of person or even if you're someone like me just looking to make a change to bring some healthy-ish balance to your life, consider Southern Maryland CrossFit. You won't regret it!

This place is a scam. Won't let you even see the gym in person until you sign a contract. Took me…read moreseveral months just to get in the door. The place is not welcoming, the owner doesn't answer questions/phone, the hours are terrible. For me, crossfit gyms are supposed to be community-based. This is far from it. They won't allow for drop ins, supposedly because people are not respectful, but it really to lock you into the contract. On the only class was able to go, they give you all the rules. Drop the bar and that's 8 minutes of burpees for everyone but you. So much for community, pinning people against other. Drive 10 minutes more. Go somewhere else.
