The breaks are quite short, allowing you to push yourself. I appreciate that the coaches are friendly and helpful to correct you when you're doing an exercise wrong and help you to get the most out of each workout. The equipment is all in good condition and cleaned after each exercise; you are expected to clean each area yourself, and they provide towels and disinfecting spray to do so. The meh: It's quite warm inside; I believe if they set the AC to turn on before classes started, that would solve the issue. Some of the coaches are more interactive than others.

The friendships & community that naturally occurs while working out together is a one of a kind life changing experience. The coaches are fantastic, very knowledgeable, encouraging & professional....

First, Rosanna the coach and owner is such an amazing coach that guides you effortlessly to complete the workouts with your current capacity. I am in no way in shape (yet) but I have been able to complete the workouts and get a killer workout each time. Second, the other members are so motivating during the workouts it really is a welcoming community. Also, you receive motivating emails from Jeff, the other coach and general manager regarding fitness and a healthier lifestyle. Lastly, the weekly schedule is so flexible that will allow anyone to attend despite their current work or life schedule. It's been only four weeks and I already feel stronger and leaner! If you are not sure if you want to begin I recommend you take the jump and begin the journey! You will not regret it!

Was introduced to Certus Crossfit by my brother who was already a member. I was initially intimidated by "crossfit" as a whole, but was looking for a new fitness routine. I soon realized that any one no matter your age or fitness level can do crossfit .... I started at 46! Every movement can be tailored to meet you at your fitness level. With the help of the supportive coaches and "good job" fist bumps from the other members, workouts at Certus quickly became something that I looked forward to and have now become part of my daily routine. I've met some really great people who have become friends not only inside of the gym, but outside of the gym as well. The programing is great, the coaches are knowledgeable and helpful. Equipment is in good shape and is repaired or replaced when necessary. Air conditioning in the hot summer months and nice locker rooms with showers.

I took a class yesterday with Joni(?), and it was challenging, but felt so good. With the kettlebells, you're really working the posterior chain, and I can already feel a difference in strength in my hamstrings, glutes, and lower back extensors; my back feels strengthened and the frequency of my low back pain has surely decreased. I'm loving the 5:45 class, as I can get back home after work to change, and head to a workout. I never feel like going after work, but am always so glad I did. Ended up doing a class yesterday and burned 614 calories (529 active calories) in 45 minutes. Felt deflated, but so accomplished after a good workout.

I attended my first FitnessSocial KB workout shortly after purchasing a one month pass for my sister in September 2023. She fell in love with this gym and the great people there and has been attending ever since. I have taken a few classes and attended their special events. When she started leading a KB/TRX workout on Monday nights in November I have begun attending weekly or twice weekly. This is really a nice gym, clean, organized and everyone is friendly. The classes are not crowded and you receive individulized instruction and positive encouragement during each class. They offer more than just KB and TRX and host lots of great events. There are also spa services available on site. Their instagram is updated daily. Great location as well!

Such great enthusiasm and is great at catching bad habits and correcting your form in a positive and constructive way. This place is great for newbies to CrossFit as well as experienced members. If you've ever been curious about CrossFit and want to try it out, come here and you'll be hooked. They're three months old (at the time of this review) so they still need to get a few more things (more resistance bands, lacrosse balls) for mobility work, but aside from that, I can't wait to come back to Fresno and work out here again!

If you're looking for a gym look no further…read more Iron Buffalo is a true gem. And that is due to the hard work of the owner, Jon, who fostered a community of love, acceptance, hard work, and laughter. This attracted a group of wonderful people who I'm proud to call friends. They helped me move on from water polo and swim and learn how to work out for me. I lost 25lbs in one year and got back to feeling like myself - well actually a more confident version of myself. I moved to Bakersfield for work and every gym I try here just reminds me how special Iron Buffalo is. When I started with them I felt so welcomed. In other gyms (Fresno, Clovis, Bakersfield, etc) I've had to go out of my way to figure things out and get to know people. But I loved how at Iron Buffalo the coaches and members go out of their way to make the new person feel welcome. They asked me questions and helped me when I was lost. I remember in the beginning I struggled to make it to one class a week, but what started to motivate me was the conversations and laughter I would have with everyone. That's what got me going more and more. They have created something truly beautiful. I hope that one day my path will lead me back to Fresno, but if not I'll definitely be dropping in when I can.

Update (6/11/17) - My wife and I have been coming here for over six months now and we love it more now than we did when I first wrote my review. The gains we've experienced are incredible!! Not just strength but balance and agility have improved 10x from where I was when I started. Confidence is through the roof too. CrossFit Iron Buffalo has a great group of people who attend on a very regular basis so you'll always see a "herd" of friendly faces ready to cheer you on. A MUST TRY!!

The main weight section is female only, everything is really clean and, most importantly, nothing smells like sweat!! The classes can be co-ed, but I didn't see too many men try Zumba or TurboKick, or the drop-in boot camp. Fitness classes, in general, are great-- you get to look like an idiot with everyone else instead of by yourself :) The price per month is very reasonable, and if someone is only interested in attending the fitness classes, they're only $4! Also, there is a playroom for children to play in while you work out! I really enjoyed coming here when I actually was coming here-- everyone is very friendly, even when they are helping you get your butt in gear. If you're a lady, looking for a female-friendly atmosphere to work out in, you should definitely stop by to get more info!
