The facility itself was large with multiple rig areas and plenty of space to wod. Equipment was in great shape and there was plenty of it. Parking was super easy with an expansive parking lot right in front of the gym.... SCORE! I loved the programming of strength in the beginning and a classic CrossFit metcon after. I was a sweaty mess after a killer wod despite it being -6 outside. I appreciate any box that actually has heat, let alone turns it on!!!! So nice not being frozen for the first half of class. Easy to sign up and sign the the waiver online ahead of time! Thanks 5am crew for making my visit to the twin cities so wonderful!

The ECC is my back-up fitness center for whenever I'm looking for a satisfying run but the…read moreweather's cruddy. Eaganites should be very happy to have such a top-notch place to work out. Their indoor track is my favorite in the South Metro & St. Paul area: rubberized, 3 lanes of comfortable width, 11 laps/mile. It's suspended above the Community Center's basketball courts, which is great for two reasons. 1) It's out of the way so you don't have to worry about people meandering onto the track. 2) There's usually some practice or game going on, which means you'll have a bit of incidental entertainment as you exercise. Also, they have several bays of floor-to-ceiling windows along the one wall, so unlike some basement-like facilities, you'll get to enjoy some natural light as you put in the miles. This facility is clean with a capital C. Everything is spotless--the track, the equipment, even the locker rooms were in impeccable condition. The building's over a decade old (built in 2003, if I recall correctly), but it still looks shiny and new. Pricing is very reasonable; since I'm here fairly infrequently I utilize the walking-track-only day pass, which is less than $5. However, please be aware that this option is not available Monday-Friday between 4-7pm. For a few more bucks you can get full run (no pun intended) of the fitness center with no restrictions. There's all sorts of membership options, of course, that you can find on the website. They have fitness classes and personal training available at the ECC as well. I've never used these services, but it's worth mentioning they exist. Spacious, un-pretentious, affordable, easy to get to, easy to park, friendly staff, never crowded... ultimately, a good gym, and a great amenity for the people of Eagan (and surrounding areas).

Plenty of parking available outside the space. There are cubbies to leave your stuff, private bathrooms with showers (bring your own towel), and a water fountain to fill up your bottle before class! The workout room is dimly lit, with fun lights and loud music to keep you motivated. The equipment is really clean and organized well. Staff are so friendly and knew my name by my second class. The workouts definitely fall into the HIIT category, incorporating various intervals of strength training and Air Bike pushes. Each day is a little different which makes it fresh, but exercises come back around each week so you can feel like you are moving towards mastery of the movements pretty quickly. Being new to the area, I am happy I finally found a workout spot to dig in some roots!

I've never done CrossFit but I have been lifting weights for years. Weight lifting is fun, but it gets boring over time. That's when I decided to try out CrossFit. I called around and found CrossFit SISU in Plymouth. It wasn't the closest CrossFit gym to me, but it had great reviews and the schedules they offered seemed to fit with my day. They put me on a one week trial. I was in constant contact with Christina. She answered my questions throughout the trial process. After the first few days, I fell in love with CrossFit and SISU. The workouts are amazing and highly motivating. There are no dull days. The coaches are super friendly and help me work around my injuries by tailoring the workouts to my needs. The other members are also friendly and help push each other.

Great coaching. Great people. Great programming…read more Personally, CrossFit SISU is the only gym that has "stuck" in the past decade. I'm back working out, 9 months straight, and physical health problems are gone. There is no better workout for strength, cardio, mobility, and use of time.

I started workin' on my fitness about 6 years before finding farmhouse. Distance running, spin classes (I even taught them), boot camp classes, pretending I knew what I was doing with weights at a big gym... I was doing fine, but had been craving a new challenge for a while. I had driven by Farmhouse many times and decided to finally give them a call. I have now been a member for a year and have done things I never thought possible. Every class kicks my ass and I love it. The coaches here are amazing and my new buddies at the gym are always there to cheer me on when I struggle. When I miss a class from my regular routine, I'm bummed. You will learn SO MUCH and be pushed to your limits here, and you will feel SO good after. Again, the coaches are amazing. They will constantly be watching and working with you to keep you in the correct form as you learn new movements and increase your weights. With their guidance, you will never run the risk of harming yourself. So, if you are sitting here asking yourself 'is Crossfit for me?'. Yes, it is! Come workout with me at my second home!

You'll truly feel like you're spending 60 minutes with close friends while you get your workout on! CrossFit has a reputation for being intimidating and cultish, and Farmhouse is anything but. All workouts are adaptable - all have been written at this time for in-person or at-home workouts. Most coaches have backgrounds in chiropractic health and focus on making sure everyone feels their best. Lance, General Manager, programs week by week and monitors members to see how everyone is feeling. Most gyms 'buy' their programming from somewhere. Drop in for a week and experience an amazing family of folks trying to get their fitness in while living their best lives!

So far I've tried boxing, strength, and flow. When I showed up for boxing, the atmosphere was incredibly welcoming.

The instructor Midge was very nice and inspirational and the entire class said hello and made me feel comfortable. Strength class kicked my butt. It was packed, fast paced, and I should have arrived earlier than ten minutes beforehand (ok, eight minutes beforehand). Flow class this morning was a great choice to stretch out my sore muscles from yesterday. Onward to my last trial class this week: cycling!
