I had my butt handed to me but I DID IT! I went with her because I noticed that she lost weight and looks fit. And I am sick of not being in shape. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming and the coach Stewart was very nice and positive! I love that they own this one and 1st Colonial and I can use both. I am not sure about the membership yet but I need to push myself and go back if I expect to see results. They aren't any more expensive than any other gym like this with classes. They also have an app which I hope I use. I will keep you all posted on my results after a few more classes.

Such a great workout but not price friendly. The instructor was great and I loved the exercises.read more

A lot of CrossFit gyms in the area but if you are looking for someplace where you can get smaller classes and one on one coaching, this is the place for you. Cannot say enough good things about this place!

The coaches provide feedback and ensure that you are doing the exercises in a safe way with correct form! The workout typically consists of running/walking on the treadmill, rowing, and strength training. They also have specialty workouts on occasion or several "tread 50" or "strength 50" classes. I've tried both the 50 minute treadmill class and the 50 minute strength class and enjoyed both! This OTF location provides a supportive environment for people of all fitness levels to workout! There are always options for walking rather than running on the treadmill (while still having a challenging incline) or modifications for the strength training if the standard option doesn't work for your body. Also, splat points are a big motivator! Definitely would recommend trying out a class for a well-rounded workout!

Just amazing - reminds me of old school CrossFit when it just started. Dropped in today on the 12…read moream class while here on a work trip and it felt like my home box in about 5 minutes. Coach Kim was incredibly welcoming and everyone was super friendly. No doubt these are some great people! The workout was no joke!! They post them on the web which I love, because I can plan my week when I fly from city to city for work. I've watched this gym for a few years but never was able to catch a class due to working nights (FedEx pilot). They have added tons of new equipment over the last few years and have a great facility (even showers if you have to rush back to work). Everyone here worked their tail off, loved the energy and coaching. Keep it up! Thank you Drop Box you for valuing the larger CrossFit "community" - I'll be back and I'd love to get some shirts when you get restocked!

This facility has brand new equipment and a great location (close to Busch Gardens) to boot. Another great factor is the safety. They are right around the corner from a police precinct.

I had been living in Va Beach for almost five years and couldn't really find a place I belonged. Walking through the doors, I knew that would change. The trainers are far superior to any in your local gym. I had a membership at Golds/One Life, a yoga studio, a small women's gym, and the Rec Centers over the years and the programing, training, and overall atmosphere of the Compound is immeasurably better. I will be a member of this facility for as long as they'll have me. I am so appreciative that Compound CrossFit became my second home - my Virginia family!

I signed up for this online free programming full of bodyweight workout I could do at home just to see what they offer. I never got to the workouts but I did look over them and liked them. About a week and a half later, I received an email from Dianne(the gym's owner). She wasn't pushy about me coming in and seemed genuinely interested in me as a person. I met her on a Saturday while running errands. Her and I talked about my goals, what I'm hoping to get out of her gym, what i'm looking for, and what the gym offers. All of it was amazing and I had such a good feeling from the gym. Upon entering the gym with her, the nutrition coach complimented me on my Lululemon shorts. This was a big bonus because we talked about why the clothes are worth the price and how it impacts a workout-when women feel good, they do good. In addition, I noticed someone had brought their dog and Dianne made sure to tell me dogs are welcome as long as they don't distract from the workout. As a woman who loves her dog, this was an awesome surprise! She also mentioned they have open gym and the "intro" class isn't some super long drawn-out course. I loved all of it. I tried out a workout the next day and LOVED IT. The coaches were helpful with ensuring everyone in the class had correct form and knew how to do each movement properly. They also made sure everyone in the class knew proper progressions and regressions for each movement. Me and Buddy(my dog) can't wait to join! He loved it as well.
