My husband and I love elevate! It's a great way to get in shape without the mental load of programming. We also love the community, we've made so many friends here. My husband also does personal training with Tommy for his back pain, and says he's helped more than any physical therapy regimen. :) read more

When I reached out to Elevate 9 month ago I was 320 lbs and I am now sitting at 255 and feeling great. I was referred from a friend at work after pulling my back out twice in a row once installing a car battery and the other picking up a large box of cat litter. That was it, sick and tired of being out of shape. I wrestled in high school and since graduating I've been wanting to train in Jiu Jitsu. During the onboarding Coach Robert asked me for a fitness goal Jiu Jitsu was the goal I've had for over 7 years. I have now been training at Gracie Largo for 5 months and performing exceedingly well with my gas tank increasing every week. Elevate not only supported me in strengthening my back and losing weight but also supported me in pursuing my long term goals. I even ran into someone in public who said Elevate changed his life and I can't disagree. This is a high quality family owned business and I recommend in passing at every opportunity. I also feel Coach Robert is a highly talented personal trainer who never once was annoyed at my 1 million "whys" and if he didn't know the answer he would do research and share his findings with me. Elevate always treats the root cause and never fails to educate. read more

Having been a member of multiple gyms in the area, I can say that hands down, Elevate is an amazing gym. The owners and coaches are knowledgable, friendly, motivating, and butt-kicking. They send encouraging emails, recognize members for their commitment to attending classes, and have a positive, uplifting vibe. The camaraderie among staff and members is unique to Elevate. Each coach brings a unique perspective and strength. I feel safe, and questions regarding modifications are always welcome, but I know they will still encourage me to do my ultimate best. The new class routine is my absolute favorite. I can spend more time on lifting and barbell movements, while still having cardio class offerings as well. I feel all around more fit, positive, and motivated to keep crushing my goals. Elevate is the best gym in the Tampa Bay area!!! read more

Favorite gym! Fantastic coaches, the workout always changes! Coaches carefully watch your form and they are extremely knowledgeable about modifications to avoid injury! Very fun atmosphere! All the people I've worked out with have been nice, friendly and open. I feel quite better about my body since I began working out there! Definitely room to grow! Check it out, you won't be disappointed!!! read more

Terrible gym will rip you off. I signed up for the 6 week challenge and payed $600. The quality of the gym and classes was terrible. I also had other pressing family matters to concern too and could not even properly participate in the challenge if I wanted too. I talked to one of the gym recruiters and she told me they would give me my money back. Then when I talked to manager he refused citing that they had already given me papers, which is supposedly worth $600. Papers which were just a carbon copy print out of basic information I could find on the internet. And a very simple scale that supposedly could figure out my BMI even though these machines are known to have very serious flaws and are not all that reliable for recording BMI. Which is the very premise in which you earn your money back on this challenge. This gym is just looking to make a quick buck and that's what they got off me. So congrats to fooling a customer trying to get into shape. Your better off paying $30 a month to L.A. which has saunas, showers, ac and group classes that you can attend every month. And the information they give you is worse than what a 5 minutes google search for healthy diets would provide me. UPDATE: You guys finally respond to me after a literal year. Write that your not running your scammy program anymore, thank god. And still dont offer to give me my money back. Sounds about right for this company. Trust and believe I will let all my friends and followers know to never go to this gym. read more

Warning. They offer a "free" 6 week lifestyle. I expected it would have "conditions" and it does. $499 deposit(you can make payments) and you only get the deposit back IF you follow all the rules and IF you meet your goal..she repeated that many times..IF you meet your goal. I tried to text the person back when i got the invite so I didn't waste their time or mine..no text back. Other option is you can join their gym..only $49 a WEEK.. I'm not saying this isn't a great option for someone that has money..but don't call it free... because its definitely not.. read more

My wife and I were staying at the beach and our current box recommended Elevate as a place to work out. The experience was amazing, Taylor and Nicole were awesome! They treated us like members the minute we walked in the door. We will definitely be back! Don and Andrea read more

They use a false advertising to get you there; saying they were offering a FREE 6 week weight loss challenge to 40 people. You get there and they tell you (after about 45 minutes) that it's $498. The BS they hand you is that the $498 will be subtracted from their annual membership (if you sign up) and their regular monthly fee is almost $175/month. Nothing about this is free and there is NO DISCLAIMER or anything in the ad. When someone asked the "catch" the comment was there wasn't one and they were trying to build their clientele. Total misrepresentation. read more

I don't think the six week challenge is false advertisement. I love this gym! They are straight forward from the start. You set goals. They are attainable. You are given all the tools needed to be successful. Overall Understanding of food and how it works with your body. Recipes. Portals to unlimited videos. Body movements and options for everyone during classes! Personal training. Totally worth it! At the end of your six week challenge you can walk away with your five hundred dollar check, better eating habits, better knowledge of gym equipment, confidence and control... But who Wants to walk away right?! I've spent money at other places this place works! read more

I joined this gym after seeing an advertisement for a nutritional challenge on Facebook. Figured what have I got to lose? Well this wasn't some ordinary gym. These coaches helped me reach my goals and stay motivated. I have belonged to many gyms in the past and this one, by far, has been my favorite. They are knowledgeable and motivating and bossy and pushy and make you sweat and simply, make you want to do well!! Nothing but positive things to say about this gym, the trainers and the programming!! read more

It's rare when you meet individuals who are so devoted to their craft and what they do for a living. Not only are both Taylor and Nicole such great people, they also care about their members. Before starting Crossfit, I was always scared to get hurt and heard about all these crazy rumors about Crossfit. I've been at SPSC for over a year, I go at least 2-3 times a week, and I have yet to experience an injury. I give credit to the coaches because they focus on technique and doing movements correctly. I can go on and on about how great this place is, but there's only one way to find out. I'd recommend coming in and checking it out. Everyone is extremely friendly. read more

Everyone is so nice here. My fiancé and I were in the area and just dropped in for a quick workout. The staff was friendly, the workout was great and the coaches were knowledgable. We just moved to the area and we signed up immediately! P.S. - They have showers and the bathrooms are really nice and CLEAN! read more

I joined Elevate and started with the 6 week challenge on 1/2/2019. I have tried a lot of different programs, but nothing has so fully encompassed all of the aspects of fitness like THIS program! The meal plan has been easy to follow and there is SO much information on the member's portal accessible through the website. Nicole and Taylor share amazing tips that lead to success in achieving goals. The workouts are challenging and truly force person growth as well as improved strength. I began to remember "the brain wants to quit when the body is at 40% of its max" when I wanted to push through the workouts. Mallory and Kaitlyn have been the perfect coaches for me. They helped me with modifications when I had a problem with my foot and they have encouraged me to reach further to improve throughout the process. I have looked for a team like the Elevate team for a long time and I'm glad I've finally found it! read more

I have been attending crossfit classes at SPSC for just over two months, and I already feel like I am in the best shape of my life. As with any workout, a lot of what you get from it has to do with what you put in, but SPSC is the first place where I have actually ENJOYED going to the gym. The instructors are all extremely well-trained and knowledgeable, and offer you just the right balance of constructive criticism and encouragement to make sure you are mastering the moves and getting the most from your workout every day. They are also very quick to assist you in scaling or modifying movements to ensure you can actually use the proper technique and avoid injury, but will also help push you to reach knew heights in your strength, fitness and flexibility. Class sizes are generally small in the morning (4-6 people), and a bit larger in the evenings (8-12, sometimes more). I have had a few morning classes where it was just me and the coach one on one, so basically a personal training session. People pay big bucks for that kind of training, but it's all a part of the monthly unlimited membership price. They are also very active on social media, which makes it easy to stay up-to-date on what's happening at the gym, class programming, schedule, events, etc. Aside from the instructors, the people this gym attracts really puts it over the edge. I was worried when I first started coming that I would feel weak or incapable compared to everyone else, but I have never felt that way. I was afraid that each class would be packed full of super-fit meat heads lifting ridiculous amounts of weight and lapping me on runs. I am happy to report that there is not a single meat head at this gym. You quickly learn that everyone is at a different level, and no one is there to judge you or make you feel bad about where you are in your fitness journey. It is actually quite the opposite. For instance, in workouts done for time, EVERYONE stays until the last person is done, and it is pretty normal for the entire class to get behind that last person, cheering them on with words of encouragement, and of course, high fives all around when they finish. It is such a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie that you just don't get at a standard gym or at home with your beachbody workout videos. Classmates also are quick to help one another wipe off and put away equipment. I can't tell you how many times I have turned around to put away my weights or a barbell to find that some stranger that I see occasionally in class has already swooped in to do it for me. Each class has this type of team mentality that makes you feel encouraged, wanted, and accomplished. Admittedly, you will pay more for a monthly membership here then at a standard gym. But before you write it off as over-priced, remember that you are getting unlimited access to the gym, classes, and personal, individual instruction. Personal training is ridiculously expensive, and for the cost of less than two sessions with a personal trainer, you get all the benefits with a monthly membership at SPSC given the small class sizes and coaches who love their job and genuinely want everyone to succeed. Also price-wise, it is competitive with other crossfit gyms in the area. I was admittedly a crossfit skeptic before I started coming to SPSC, but now I am a believer. If you put in the time, listen to your instructors, and consistently attend class, you WILL see results and you will be a better person for it. Can you get results at other gyms or at home? Absolutely. But will you enjoy it as much as I do as a member at SPSC? Doubtful. Make the best decision of your life. Be the Pelican. read more

The difference (for me) between good and bad CrossFit gyms comes down to coaching and community. SPSC is excellent at both. Taylor and Nicole really do an amazing job at making you feel welcome, encouraging the community aspect, and taking a personal commitment to seeing member success. The coaching is consistent on proper technique and keeping the athletes healthy and always improving. What I can appreciate is the fact that they are not afraid to step-in when someone may be in jeopardy of injuring themselves. They are firm but friendly. The entire community stands behind each other and makes each and every day fun. Not to mention that the programming is incredibly tough but also scalable and appropriate to all fitness levels. I can't say enough great things about the place and the people. i'm very fortunate to have found this place! read more
