Joined this gym 4 years ago and have enjoyed every single day. In the best shape of my life now and looking forward to making even more progress. The team and the way this gym runs is so unique, you'd be hard pressed to find something similar. Coaches are numerous and come in a variety of flavors each with their own style of teaching and feedback. Even beyond a fitness regimen that works, I've progressively found myself making healthier choices outside the gym with support from the community and people I've met. There truly is something for everyone here. More...

I was always interested in doing CrossFit, but was intimidated about joining a gym. I heard of CFA from a friend and decided to check them out. They were responsive from the moment I inquired about my interest in scheduling a visit. Dan gave a tour of the facility and explained all of the things CFA had to offer. As Dan walked me around, almost everyone he walked by introduced themselves and made it an incredibly welcoming experience. I joined and was assigned a coach for on-boarding. They were able to assess my fitness level as well as teach me all of the different movements. Once I finished on-boarding, I was able to choose one of the many daily classes for a daily workout. CFA has the best coaches. They take the time to make sure you are getting a great workout that fits your fitness level. Safety and injury prevention is one of their top priorities for the athletes. I would highly recommend CFA. The classes have people of all ages and fitness levels. The members and staff are super supportive and have created an amazing fitness community. More...

This is an amazing gym and a was second home to me for over 4 years. I left due to moving away from the area but highly recommend Crossfit Amoskeag. The coaches work hard and keep you focused on goals while making class alot of fun. The equipment is top notch and the owners are constantly adding more to expand skills and training. I've been to many crossfit gyms between MA and NH, none of them come close to the experience I had at Crossfit Amoskeag! Don't cheat yourself from this place, give it a shot! More...

On a recommendation of a friend, we looked into CFA to help with strength recovery after my daughter had knee surgery. The goal was to develop a program that would allow her to return to high school sports and in my opinion, there is nothing that will achieve that goal more effectively than functional movements. I met with Dan and Mickey and immediately was pleased. They are willing to listen, develop programs within the bounds set by my daughter’s surgeon and physical therapist. We did 4 private sessions to make sure the environment was strictly controlled. Mickey did a phenomenal job with her, so much that she decided to continue a major part of her recovery at CFA. He coaches the program she attends and continues to ensure she doesn’t go too far to cause issues, but pushes her on the road to recovery. Thanks to CFA there is a high probability that she will met her goal to be cleared to play sports in December 2018. Great community and outstanding coaches. More...

I started Crossfit at Crossfit Amoskeag in Bedford in January not knowing what exactly what to expect. The first session of the On-Ramp program was extremely difficult and I thought about giving up, but one thing I didn't expect is the camaraderie of Crossfit Amoskeag.

There is no beating around the bush, those first few weeks, I was awful at those workouts. Even one month into it, I still have trouble getting through the workouts. Not once did anyone say anything negative to me about how awful I am at some of the exercises. All the coaches and owners took the time to break it down with me to make sure that I understood what I was doing. Even if they had to pull me aside to walk me through it, they didn't mind helping me out and the other athletes didn't judge me because of it.

I am really glad I took the first step and tried Crossfit and stuck with it. I am at the point where I am getting better at everything, and I am looking forward to seeing where this journey will take me. I love the team and the athletes at Crossfit Amoskeag and couldn't imagine going anywhere else.

I started going to CrossFit Amoskeag a couple of months ago. Since college football I've stayed in shape but chose not to do many lifting exercises as my elbows and shoulders have seen their share of injuries. My biggest concern was that I would feel forced to do exercises that would hurt me physically in the long run (and make current injuries worse). This was totally not the case. Unlike other CF gyms or how they're perceived, CF Amoskeag provides a totally different attitude and atmosphere. Not once have I felt pressured to do an exercise I don't want to. If anything, the coaches will always find me an alternative to get just as good of a workout as the original. Many of them have PT and trainer backgrounds so they are big advocates of mobility and stretching. My advice is give it a try... It's addicting, challenging, but most importantly rewarding. You meet some pretty cool people along the way as well... More...

I can't wait to continue my fitness journey here for a long time to come! :) More...

Jeff and crew were fabulous in letting me work out there with my visit back to the Manchester area for the week.
The most professional crew that has amore than average ability to coach, mentor and train. Their programming is thought out and well designed. I loved that they have a Teens class, kids class yoga and an invite side to boot! The space is large and you don't have to worry about dropping weights or missing lifts here. Plenty of equipment to go around and room for more!

For those of you who are taking the time to read this review, I thank you. You are probably scanning the reviews, trying to find something that relates to your level of experience. Well if you are new to Crossfit or weightlifting of any kind, I highly recommend Crossfit Amoskeag. After the terrific introduction classes were finished, the attention the coaches continue to provide is excellent. Doing things the right way is a priority at CFA. And it's not just for newbies like me as I see it with seasoned athletes as well. Shout out also to the friendly and supportive athletes that you share the floor with. I never thought I could do what I've accomplished already but CFA helped make it possible! More...

So my 1 year anniversary of starting On Ramp and joining CrossFit Amoskeag is coming up in a few weeks so I felt it was fitting that I finally leave a review. Anyone reading this who has negative thoughts about CrossFit, I was there too. I’m a total hypocrite because before I joined, I had nothing good to say about the sport and was such a hater. However, last fall, I was bored with the classes at my previous gym and need a change; something more challenging. My friend, who is a member of CFA, convinced me to give it a shot and I’m so glad she did. It’s been a long journey and the first few months were rough but the more you stick with it, the better it gets. The moves and lifts can be extremely frustrating but once you learn them, it’s so exciting to watch yourself improve. I am stronger than ever and my endurance is getting better. The gym itself is awesome – really spacious and with cubbies for your gear. The gym offers numerous classes during the week, along with the daily WODs. There is even yoga twice a week! The Heritage Trail in Bedford runs behind the gym which we use during WODs occasionally and I’ve used them for my own runs after class. The owners are accommodating and helpful. If you are lucky, they may just pop in and join the class you’re in. I can’t say enough good things about the coaches at CFA. They are extremely knowledgeable. Not only that, but they truly care about the safety of the members. They know how to encourage us but not push us to do something that will result in injury. They are all so supportive. I have to give a special shout out to coach Zach though, who I have worked with probably 95% of the time I’ve been at CFA. He is incredibly helpful and makes sure you understand each move completely before the work out begins. He’s the best DJ and keeps everyone laughing with his dance moves and ridiculous analogies. He also has the patience of a saint when it comes to putting up with my never ending questions – Zach you are so great at what you do, thank you! Keep up the good work! Lastly, I know the idea of joining a CrossFit gym can be so intimidating but the people at CFA are so warm and welcoming. It doesn’t matter who you talk to or what their athletic ability may be, everyone does such a great job making new members feel comfortable. I’ve made so many great connections in the past year. The community is such a huge part of what CrossFit is and CFA goes above and beyond. I could go on and on but basically, the important thing is to give it a shot if you are curious or looking to get out of your comfort zone, you will not be disappointed!!! More...

Here is another five-star review... I would make it ten if it were an option!

I've been at CFA for one month and it has been a blast. I've been to a couple other crossfit gyms in southern NH, and I love this one because it is one with not only big muscles but also a big heart. Everyone across the board has been super friendly and encouraging. No meatheads or popular crowds, just friends working out together and encouraging each other along the way.

Regardless of where you start physically, the Coaches offer a variety of options to scale back to fit your needs and goals. You never feel judged, just supported. There is a good mix of guys and girls, with a whole range of ages, abilities, and body types.

I worked almost exclusively with Coach Zach, just because of my schedule, and couldn't have been luckier. He is the best! High energy, hilarious, focused on form over fast and furious failing motions, pushes you to do your best, but understands everybody's body is different. He also has a killer taste in music.

CFA rocks my work out socks.
