CrossFit SPOT

CrossFit Spot is a great "box" for beginners to crossfit as I was. It is a very welcoming fitness space for all level of crossfit experience. I highly recommend Eric Rivera as he is a very knowledgeable coach. He makes sure every attendant feel comfortable and belonged in the class. I like how they structure the beginners class, where the first 30 minutes of class is about learning common crossfit movement and exercises. This is very critical to new comers as the crossfit terminology is was something new for me. The last 30 minutes consists on "workout of the day" WOD. It is very intense and it really make you sweat - so be ready. More...

I can't and won't do CrossFit But this RX30 classes are freaking amazing ... it's like Barry's Bootcamp but 1/2 the price 1/2 the bs-ing snd 1/2 the time I'm watching myself transform here and for just 30 minutes you can and do push yourself further than you would in an hour long class

I am a beginner and have really appreciated working out at CrossFit SPOT. I’ve been to a couple of other boxes and can say that I’ve received more attention, coaching, direction, and encouragement here than anywhere else. The coaches I have worked with are passionate about giving a good workout and making sure you are doing it correctly, which I appreciate so much because it keeps me from getting hurt and helps me to get skills that I can build on as I continue to grow! I travel from 140th to work out here because it is so worth it to me - clean facilities, good work out, incredible coaches. More...

7 classes in and absolutely love this place. Julia and Nazar are the coaches that I immediately liked and stuck too. They are informed, friendly, and very attentive. And they make sure you get and keep the technique right.Then to add, they have clean, spacious, and individual shower, toilet, lockers facilities to use for free.I find this gym such a gem that I prefer to commute an hour each way from Crown Heights, even though there are a couple of highly rated gyms (and I've tried them) that are walking distance from my home. Totally worth it. Try it out. More...

I was really nervous with the idea of starting crossfit but the staff makes it so fun. Some moves can be tricky but it's so worth it. I feel stronger and I can finally use the free weights at my local gym without feeling awkward because I know what to do now. The staff is so friendly and helpful and they actually take the time to learn your name. More...

I found this CrossFit place through a deal I found Online. I wanted to give CrossFit a try to see what this sport is all about. Before stepping into this this spot (no pun intended) I was feeling a bit intimidated, but the coaches as super relax and want to help you get to the next steps. I've taken a couple of beginner classes and you see all ranges of experience and it's really helpful to have that. Great place! More...

I signed up for Crossfit so I would have a group to workout with, and feel more motivated. The classes are enjoyable, and the staff are thorough and attentive, even if you are a beginner. I feel very accomplished when I finish a workout, and I love that I feel like I am becoming stronger when I go continuously. I have taken a friend who is an absolute beginner, and they were very patient and helped her learn the movements while still focusing on the rest of the class. More...

I'm completely new to crossfit or any type of heavy lifting, so it was confusing the first few classes but now I have the hang of it. The trainer and class is always extremely encouraging and crossfit spot makes me really enjoy crossfit as a newbie!

I really enjoy the community at CrossFit SPOT. I joined two weeks ago and after not working out consistently for almost a year, I've been to 8 classes and that's only because I am traveling out of town for most of the second week. I feel great! The accountability and encouragement you get from the coaches are phenomenal! I would certainly recommend CrossFit SPOT to newbies who want to get fit while having fun and doing it safely, as well as to expert lifters. Everyone is encouraged to go at their own pace while also pushing yourself to see results:-) More...

This is one of those places that, to the newbie thinking of embarking on a serious fitness program, can give the impression of being a very intimidating place. After all, some of the fittest people I've seen spend time here. My initial impression however, after taking a week of classes and observing everyone's interactions - there isn't an ounce of ego in the entire Box. The sense of community, where the coaches and members alike motivate and congratulate each other for a never-before-done weight on a deadlift or a snatch for example, is amazing. This is a family run operation, and from the top-down, each and every member is supported (and pushed hard) in moving closer to their purpose of being there - the only competition that exists is the one between your present self and the person you're committed to becoming. Yes, it's hard. And I question going to the next class when every single part of my body is in pain. But I go, because I know that at some point(s) in the future I'm going to be faced with really some tough life obstacles. And my deciding today to show up to a class that'll push me beyond my perceived limits, will give me the confidence to push through whatever life throws at me in the future, either by my doing or by something out of my control. I'll see you at the next class... More...

I’ve been a crossfit member from another NYC gym and switched to the new location at 33 West End since they opened July 4th. A quick address update- the gym entrance is actually located on Freedom Place which is between Riverside Blvd and West End Ave. The classes are intense but well programmed and all the instructors have a strong passion to make sure members (new or seasoned) are doing the moves with correct form and performance. It’s a great atmosphere of socializing and working out. this new gym in NYC has plenty of sunlight and near the west side area for outdoor programming. I’ve already bought my annual membership and great to see the owner working out with us also. More...

The new location is really nice—the wall of windows brings in a lot of natural light and faces a landscaped courtyard. Other boxes in the city are in basements or on loud and hectic streets, but this box has a great environment/feeling. The coaches mostly all do a good job of trying to learn your name, and whenever I have had a question, their tips have really helped. More...

Conveniently located just a few blocks away from Columbus circle, this gym provides a great opportunity for city dwellers to stay in the heart of the city for a workout and avoid crowds of tourists at the same time. At their new space, there is everything a strength athlete of any level might need: all sorts of bars, kettlebells, dumbbells, and other toys that I have yet to try. They offer multiple classes throughout the day and have open gym hours every day of the week, which is a nice change from some of my previous gyms that had open gym only on certain days. The regulars and the coaches are approachable and willing to give an advice if asked. It is clean and spacious too! More...

Bought a 10 pack of classes for a really good price on Groupon and I’ve really enjoyed the classes. The instructors are attentive and make sure you have proper form which is really important and don’t always find in CrossFit. I love the format- generally it’s the first 20 minutes or so working on a particular move, like a snatch, clean and jerk etc, and the second half of the class will often be a partner AMRAP workout which usually has a good mix of cardio and strength. My only dislike is that they don’t always start on time, and they don’t incorporate stretching into the workout, tho they do encourage you to stay and stretch. More...
