I'm really impressed by his attentiveness, and knowledge. He spent a lot of time with me in the beginning talking with me, and getting an understanding of what I'm trying to accomplish. His workouts are great! Very easy to do and understand. Even with my slightly larger size, I am able to accomplish everything he's given me. Each time I've been, I've felt really good afterwards. He creates a program that will work for you, your goals and specific body type. Injuries, and body size are all factored into what your body can handle safely and effectively.

I came to Crossfit Santa Ynez Valley on a whim, having never stepped foot in a facility like this,…read morewanting to step out of my comfort zone. I had no idea the impact it would have on my life. Owner and head trainer, Gio Murru is an extremely knowledgeable, patient, kind and respectful human being. Having had 3 previous knee surgeries, overweight and deconditioned, Gio has taught me that any exercise or movement can be tailored/modified to my needs while still allowing room for growth and improvement. At only 5 months in, my knee (s) feel stronger than ever (even when active in cross country/track & field) and I am overall an improved version of me. Each workout and time spent at the box provides a powerful way for me to actively participate in my own health care and recovery while minimizing pain and having FUN! Forever grateful to Gio Murru and Crossfit Santa Ynez Valley.

The facility is top-notch, super clean, and set up perfectly for a great workout. But what really stood out was the people. Scott and Thiago run an incredible operation--they were welcoming from the second I walked in and treated me like I'd been a member there for years. The workout was intense, well-structured, and exactly what I needed while traveling. You can tell there's a strong culture here and that they genuinely care about their members. If I lived in Santa Barbara, this would 100% be my gym. And anytime I'm back in SB, this is where I'll be training. Appreciate you guys for making me feel at home.

What really sets this place apart is the community. The coaches and members are incredibly welcoming, supportive, and motivating, and I've met some incredible people here. The Peak 500 Challenge they held last week pushed me in the best way--definitely tough, but so rewarding. And the recent boat party was such a highlight--an amazing way to connect with everyone outside the studio and just party together. Huge shoutout to Tiago for creating such an awesome, positive environment. You can really feel the energy and intention behind everything here. Highly recommend!!

Have been going to this gym for over a year, so this review is long overdue…read more Headstrong combines everything you love about SLO and gym culture. Like most of SLO, everyone is incredibly friendly - from the staff to the coaches that will go out of their way to introduce themselves and always say hi when they see you in the gym. They have developed a community that only comes from continued and deliberate effort. They regularly host events to keep growing this community and you can see its size and strength at the 9am Saturday classes. This gym nailed the warehouse aesthetic while also keeping weight-lifters in mind. I have never had an issue finding a squat rack, which I can't say about any other gym I have been to. The free weights/dumbbells go in to the high 100s, where most gyms cap at 95/100lbs. In the warmer weather the outdoor turf-lined area is one of my favorite perks that I've also never had in other gyms. This place is a gym that's designed by people who actually use the gym and make it a point to continue making improvements for its members. If you need a gym that's more than just a place to work out, check out Headstrong.

That being said, nothing was like what I expceted. The coach, each one of them, along with every person I have met, and worked out alongside has been nothing but fantastic, nice, polite, warm, friendly, encouraging, and motivating. The atmosphere here is one of hard work, good time, healthy living, and functional fitness. My wife and I have random parts that ache or don't work right, and every coach is god about offering helpful modifications, and never criticizing or making me feel bad for not being able to do something. I love coming here and getting a great workout in, in a short period of time, as well as the joy I've found from seeing new friends and feeling like we're a part of a larger family. We've gone out drinking, BBQ'ing, etc. with some of the people we've met through ACF and I can't believe how much I like them and being a person who does CrossFit! I look forward to a long time of being able to grow stronger here and becoming better at what I do when I'm there.

I was in SLO taking care of my mom, and had found Inferno on Instagram beforehand. So impressed with how badass the owner was I realized HAD to get my a** there! Definitely wasn't disappointed! What a great box, and boy what a blessing to be able to workout while away from home in my favorite place. Inferno is amazing, it's literally around the corner from the airport and the energy of the place is uber cool. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, motivating, encouraging and good hearted. The workouts are excellent, the music is awesome and the fellowship with everyone there is truly heartwarming. If you live near this place, stop scrolling the phone, get off the couch and drive down to Inferno and watch your body, mind and life change for the better. Are you mentally struggling? CrossFit is more than just fitness--it's cognitive behavior therapy--in which one is able to adopt healthier life perspectives after an hour of hard earned sweat...and the benefits are longer lasting. You start where you're at and the sky is the limit. So glad I found this gem while I was there. I can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for letting me join in.
