Update 1/2020: I hate 3G sessions. 3G is when you have three groups Rather than the normal two…read moregroups an orange 60 session. An orange 60 session has up to 24 people. And orange 3G session has up to 36 people. That little space is already crowded with 24 people. It is horrible when there are 36 people in there. I am pretty sure the only reason they do 3G sessions is because of more demand for certain time of day. For example a lot of people want to work out on Saturday and Sunday mornings. So they do the 3G sessions. The heart rate monitors are off and not reliable. It seems like every other session mine cuts out on me for a few minutes. I see other people struggling with theirs as well. I don't know if there's a manufacturing defect in a lot of them or something else. But you pay 100 bucks for that Little monitor that cost the studio probably less than five dollars. They should be quick to replace them when they don't work. Or maybe change the technology. One thing that needs improvement is the sound system. If you are on treadmill seven your ears get blown out. Where as on treadmill number one it is a little too quiet. Also can you please figure out a simple hook for those straps. They are always falling off and swinging out. How hard could it be to buy some sort of little hook for them. Rather than trying to hook them on the dumbbell stand? One good thing this studio did in 2020 Was to put a five minute gap between class end and and the next class start time. That does help with the crowdedness at the locker area. I wish this studio would move into a larger space. It is still super tight in the waiting area. Hopefully their lease will end soon and the owner will get smart and move to a bigger space in the same shopping center. My review for 8/2019: Hello. I really like orange theory. i cannot find your "freeze" policy. Can u post a link please

It doesn't say anywhere that showing up exactly 30 minutes before class is required. A lot of planning went into us getting to OT for an 8a class (we are four moms) but that didn't change anything. Lack of support/encouragement from a gym is honestly shocking. Not sure if we should be working out at a gym that doesn't care about their members.

Very strong community across all classes that I've visited. I think this is a function of the…read moresmaller class sizes, older and more ethnically diverse demographic (though there is uniform probability of any age being represented) and the more personable trainers + studio manager leadership.

Come check it out and tell them I sent you :) Shoutout to Tripp, Daniel and Bimala. Very cool trainers and people who love what they do and the people they are coaching.

Earlier this year I joined F45 as a way to get back in shape, and be healthier overall. I had…read morepreviously tried things like T25 (Videos), and in the past had been a gym member (lifting weights); but none of them really kept me motivated and coming back...nor was I really very dedicated to cardio work. F45 kind of changed all that. Each session is pretty intense as far as a workout goes, but it's all about how hard you push yourself. Exercises can be slower and easy, or fast and hard (or slow and hard ;-) ) depending on how you feel, and your level of confidence. However, the trainers that are there to help you along and the team of people that you work out with that help you to get motivated make all the difference. The folks that come there are super friendly and engaging; and the trainers are personable and non-judgemental ;-) . It's a high intensity workout, and it's easy to get a lot out of it so long as you go on a regular basis. All that being said, I'm a fan of F45. There are some things that make it better (perhaps) than others: - Erika (the trainer that is usually there when I go) is super friendly and helpful; she's always greeting you with a smile on her face, and ending the day with high-fives; and during the workouts she's letting you know where you can improve - or where you can push yourself harder. - The changing exercises daily (both in terms of timing, flow, and exercises themselves) keep things from getting dull; and you're focusing on different body parts - which is also great. - There are NO TREADMILLS; it's personal - but I'm not a fan of those things at all, so the lack of them is a plus for me. I've met several nice people at the local F45, and although none of them have invited me or my family over for dinner, I remain hopeful. Seriously though - the people are great, the trainers are great, and they have these heart monitors you can strap on to see how much you are improving. I'd highly recommend you go and try it out if you're looking for something different, and engaging, in terms of high intensity interval training.

My goal was the lose 6% body fat in 6 weeks and I ended up losing 7% body fat and 10 pounds in 5 weeks. I had many misconceptions about CrossFit that initially turned me off to signing up (i.e. its just for meatheads, you do complex movements with no instruction, there isn't any science/thought behind the workout plans), but my experience with the program, the people who were members, and the instructors couldn't be further from my initial thoughts. An extreme amount of thought and care went into designing the program. The meal plan, workouts, coaching and social support were expertly woven together to make for a seamless experience. It addressed every pitfall one might encounter when starting a new fitness program (sticking to a meal plan, meal prepping, losing motivation, stress) and made it as easy as possible to succeed. The members there were great. They were encouraging and friendly. Almost everyone I worked out with came up and introduced themselves to me, and were very helpful if I needed advice on a movement or was struggling with a workout. The coaches were experts. A special shout out to Amy Depolo and Jason Carley who I trained with most frequently during my challenge. Both were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and motivating. Both great as coaches and people you would want to grab a beer with after class. Overall I give the program an A+ and would encourage anyone who is looking to transform there body and commit to the program to join South Durham Crossfit.

You are able to focus on your goals and gain motivation from the rest of the members without feeling like you are alone. But all of this is nothing if the gym, members, and coaches are not approachable and welcoming. That was the first thing I noticed about the gym and haven't looked back. With a focus on not only training hard but also doing things together outside of the gym it offers a community and support that is missing from some of the other boxes. Highly recommended to anyone looking to start their journey or to finally accomplish what you've been meaning to for years.

I've been to four in the last week and a half, and looking forward to my classes scheduled! I've done Zumba classes and spin classes (Flywheel), but nothing compares! The two instructors I've taken classes with are amazing. Mike, the head coach is the BEST! I try to get all of my classes with him but would definitely give the others a chance as I'm sure they're all wonderful. It's very much so like a community and every single person that works there has been genuinely kind & helpful. They obviously tried to sell me a membership, but, duh. They weren't pushy about it and were super knowledgeable and helpful when it came to the options! Well, of course I gave in & glad I did! The thing I love the most is how the classes work. It's cardio, rowing, and lifting/floor intervals. You burn so many calories in the hour long class and it's actually fun. The music is always on point.

My tour with Olympia was informative but also straight to the point. Most of my questions were answered. I was referred online for a description of the classes offered. I've visited a few times already for a few workouts. I like the turf training area. I have spent most of my cardio workout sessions on the elliptical machine. Very smooth cardio ride, with no squeaks, and the elliptical seems to be in good working condition. I enjoyed my free personal training session with Coach King. King's training style is challenging and motivating. O2 Fitness seems like a quality workout experience with and without a trainer. Overall good experience. I saw a machine that could use a dust down at the bottom (near foot areas), and at least one elliptical I used could stand to be replaced due to a worn-out part. I've found it to be a bit warmer than I would like for a gym (without a ceiling fan). Perhaps the temp of the AC should be reviewed.

I've been wanting to join a crossfit gym for awhile now. I've looked at a few places around the…read moretriangle area but every crossfit places I've seen seem to focus on muscle ups and their egos. Definitely not what I'm looking for. It's intimidating as it is already to be out of shape so it's nice that I found archetype online. And by no means am I fat, but I want to lean out more and it's just nice to have such a variety of people that are just focused on the same goal. I'll be honest, it's not the biggest gym but it fits everything you need for a good workout. If this is your first time joining a crossfit gym, this is the place to go. (1) Coaches are approachable. They're not looking you up and down and making you feel bad. Trust me, I've seen some places. (2) If you're looking for a community of people who just want to lose weight with or if you're like me and just tired of the regular routines and enjoy circuit training, this is the place for you. I weight lift but occasionally get lazy with the same old workouts. So this is fun for me. I'm sure you'll also enjoy it. (3) Location is perfect. Far for me, but perfect location-wise. (4) They have a morning schedule (that I can't make) and they have late afternoon schedule that usually between 5 to 7 pm. They have some sessions on Saturdays mornings only. (5) Their is a meal plan that they suggest you follow. My only take on that is if you plan to lose the weight you probably should be dieting anyway. I had just lost 10 lbs before attending attending this place. There is no trick to it I think. Self discipline. It's definitely worth checking out. There are things to improve but honestly worth staying or at least checking out. It's a hole in the wall crossfit spot, and I like that.
