TESTIMONIALS

About a year and a half ago, I was introduced to CrossFit by my cousin who convinced me to join him at a class on New Year’s Eve. Before that first CrossFit workout, I considered myself to be in pretty good shape. I had trained and ran multiple half-marathons but never really got the results I was looking for. I was stuck in a rut and looking for something different.

Once I finished my first workout at Gem City, I was instantly hooked. As a former college soccer player, I thrive in a team atmosphere, and I found that at Gem City. The environment here reminds me of when I was playing in college. When you’re in the box fighting through a WOD, you know everyone is working towards the same goal: to finish faster, to get stronger, and get that last rep.

The support from the coaches and the community here at Gem City pushes you to do things you didn’t think you could. I can honestly say I look forward to attending the 5:30 a.m. class every day, knowing that the first few hours of my day will be spent pushing myself alongside other athletes who are doing the same. The camaraderie here is next to none. If you’re looking for a place to push yourself to limits you never thought you could reach and have friends that turn into family, Gem City CrossFit is the place for you!

When we moved to Dayton, we were very excited to start training at a CrossFit box. My wife and I had been doing CrossFit for some time in our garage, but this was finally our opportunity to be part of a box.

Gem City exceeded our expectations. GCCF has a spectacular community of members who are always excited to welcome each other and new members. The coaches are fantastic, not only do they feel like cornerstones of the gym family, they are also committed to making every member better as a result of each WOD.

The programming is consistently simple enough to comprehend but effective enough to yield noticeable results. All the coaches are ready to suggest options to scale up or down, depending on an athlete’s needs. This is a terrific gym, and our family couldn’t be happier with our decision to be a part of it.

I was a traditional workout guy, but after my wife joined Gem City, I decided to try it. We both love it! The atmosphere and camaraderie is great.

Every workout feels new and the sense of boredom from a traditional gym membership is gone. All of those great things aside, at the age of 46, the results speak for themselves.

I highly recommend stopping in and trying Cross Fit for yourself at Gem City.
