I have been at this gym for almost two years now and I absolutely love it! The coaching staff and the rest of the community make CrossFit University City a great place to workout and to spend some time outside of school/work.

I've been a member for about two years and a crossfitter at many other boxes for longer - CrossFit UC is top-notch with a great staff, facility and member community. Each class is a great experience and I can't imagine working out anywhere else in the city! More...

I have been to many Crossfit gyms in the past and this one is truly the best. The space is slightly small (compared to the huge boxes I am used to in back in Arizona), but the way they use the space is efficient. The coaches are great and really take the time to critique your form as well. I look forward to getting my ass kicked at each workout! More...

Before Crossfit University City opened I"d been a member of 4 other crossfit gyms including one in Philly, and I must cay UCity is my favorite. I moved away from the gym and still commute over a mile each day rain or shine so I can go to U city instead of the other gym near my house. Coaching staff are amazing, and the community is close knit and second to none. I continue to see progress, and appreciate the coaches commitment to continual improvement while still not taking themselves too seriously. Thank you! More...

I was initially intimidated by CrossFit but am a believer after joining CrossFit University City. The coaches are knowledgeable and encouraging. They are invested in every athlete getting stronger and meeting their fitness goals. The other members are also supportive of one another. I have never worked out as hard as I have at UCity and can see progress from when I joined the gym over a year ago. Would highly recommend for a beginner or experienced athlete. More...

I tried three gyms in the area and UCity was the only one where the coaches made me laugh. I knew immediately that this would be home base for the duration of graduate school.

I showed up last July out of shape with a knee injury flaring up. The coaches have been incredibly helpful in showing me how to strengthen the muscles around my bad knee and modifying the workouts so that I don't injure myself. Now 8 months later my knee feels great and I'm able to do most of the movements. The coaches genuinely care about your fitness and helping you reach your goals. Thank you! More...

Last Summer I did a roadtrip across California and stopped at like 20 CrossFit Boxes, None and I mean not even one come close to CrossFit University City. The unique thing about this box is it’s ability to make the person feel at home. The coaching staff take personal interest in your growth and progress. They make sure to get the best out of you. Moreover the members of this are an exceptional group of people who create a positive vibe. Joining CFUC is one of the best decisions I have made in my life. Home away from Home! More...

I moved to Philly this past July, and was really nervous to find a new CrossFit box. I looked at the various boxes in the city, and went to a class at Ucity and loved it. The coaches are very supportive, and willing to teach you, having knowledge of many scaling options if you’re still learning, and all the people are nice! Every class starts with a question of the day so you get the chance to meet everyone, and form a community. They also have affordable rates for students! More...

I started going to CrossFit University City last summer. I’d wanted to try crossfit for a while but had always been intimidated by the intensity of the workouts. This gym is inviting, beginner friendly, and everyone is encouraging regardless of your fitness level. Every single coach is friendly, passionate, and knowledgable and aims to help you reach your goals in a safe and positive environment. I always look forward to working out at Crossfit uCity and highly recommend to anyone interested. More...

Been a member of Crossfit UC for over a year now and have realized incredible improvements, both inside and outside the gym. What differentiates Crossfit UC from other gyms are the people - the coaches are extremely supportive, knowledgeable and friendly.
