Gimme CrossFit

I really appreciate this gym. I used to dread the time period after Thanksgiving and Christmas when I had to face reality and new year resolutions. I would feel gross and guilty about binge-eating my way through the holidays but also overwhelmed by the thought of dragging myself to the gym and seeing all the gym people there. It was intimidating, confusing, and felt time-consuming. I would always end up joining a gym or starting some sort of program for a few months, show up inconsistently, be defeated by my non-existent progress, and then resume my gym-free life.BUT! No post-holiday remorse for me this time around and it feels really good! Last spring, I started personal training with Yajen at Gimme Crossfit, intending just to do a few weeks to see how things would progress. I ended up continuing my training with him 3x/week and here I am, 9 months later, still showing up.Here are 3 reasons why I decided to stick to training at Gimme Crossfit:1. Results. Within two months, I was able to see progress. A lot of that can be attributed to goal-setting. Yajen helped break my goals down into measurable steps and held me accountable just for 1-2 small things at a time until they became habits. This alone helped me with a mental breakthrough in establishing healthier rhythms in my daily life that I've been able to maintain this whole time. I've been able to eat better, lose weight, and get stronger.2. Routine. The focus and exact things we do each time vary but I appreciate being able to mentally prepare and anticipate that we will always move through warmup, strength training, and workout. It takes the anxiety out of wondering what I will be subjected to each day. The hour is also paced well so we're consistently working on something with built-in rest periods and the time goes by quickly. We also end on time.3. Environment. It's a lowkey, low-pressure environment. The space is clean (sanitized regularly), ventilated, well-maintained, and color-coordinated. I like that it is a smaller gym with fewer people and distractions. I'm able to just go in, focus on what I'm doing, and still have all the equipment and space that I need to work out. In terms of training, Yajen is professional, knowledgeable, and doesn't push or guilt-trip. He allows me to go at my own pace, checking to make sure I'm comfortable with new movements and workouts. He explains why and what we are working on. It removes the intimidation that comes with not being athletic or even remotely familiar with workouts. As I've gotten more comfortable and built up more confidence, it's automatically encouraged me to challenge myself to do more.I've joined many bigger gyms and different types of programs before but I feel like I've found a place here that helps me stay consistent. I would recommend Gimme Crossfit to anyone who just needs something that works. Whether it's getting stronger, healthier, or more fit, this is an easy place to start and stay. More...

The whole space is great ! There's a lot of room and equipment to train in many different ways from free weights, accessory work with resistance bands to barbells and trap bars. Not only is the owner nice, but the place is also very covid friendly with lots of sprays and wipes available to clean down equipment before usage. More...

Gimme Crossfit is definitely a top quality gym. Starting from how much the work staff cares for you to the quality of space and equipment, you can't really ask for much more! If you're looking for a safe space to start off your road to a healthier life style this is definitely a place I'd recommend. More...

Really glad I found this place.  I started going here as they offer outdoor workouts and private/online sessions adhering to current safety protocols. Yajen takes the time to explain each workout and is always ready to listen to our questions/concerns. The classes can be challenging, but always a good time.  He's always encouraging so we push through and give max effort lol; it's great. More...

I absolutely love this place! The gym is immaculate and is organized well. It is very professional and has excellent equipment. The gym is bright and spacious and the atmosphere provides an environment that makes me excited to workout. Thank you to Yajen for always pushing and correcting my form, your energy is the best! He is very attentive and knowledgeable, fixed the little tucks and pulls in my posture that made a world of difference in the workouts. I highly recommend this gym. More...

Yajen is very helpful when it comes to learning different work outs. Often more times than not, people struggle to try new types of exercises due to fear of failure or fear of embarrassment. However, here is not the case.In addition to the demonstration of different types of exercises, Yajen would guide me through the workout to make sure I was not making any mistakes. Overall, the time I spent here was enjoyable and gave me more insight on how many different forms of exercise there are for endurance-based training. More...

What really stood out about Gimme CrossFit is the community. I was told at first that this wasn't going to be a just another gym membership, but a community of people that would push and support each other to reach their goals. Especially in this COVID era, it's nice to know that we have a well-sanitized and open space to workout in with a coach that really is there to support us.If you're getting started in fitness and you need a little motivation, accountability, and education, then this is the right spot for you.

The gym is clean and equipped with all it takes  to get a great workout. Our trainer, I can't say enough, Yajen, is extremely helpful, knowledgeable and highly motivational. With his expertise, he offers an incredible guidance (using proper forms and equipment) to help you achieve your physical goals. He'll make sure your workouts are as brutally intense or as slowly paced as you want or need them to be. What distinguishes Gimme CrossFit from other gym is they genuinely care! Not only do they care about your physical health, they also care about your mental well being!  They make you feel like part of a family. They simply make you feel a little stronger, a little younger and a little happier each time you are there! More...

Update:So Covid-19 happened.. and the gym had to close temporarily. I thought this would be a great excuse to slack off. But Yajen didn't let that happen. We had some online meetings to talk about goals and he posted some workout videos for me to follow. He even let me borrow a kettlebell so that I would have something heavy enough to lift. Now that the gyms are allowed to open back up, I was invited to go back in. But airing on the side of caution, I decided to continue my home workouts for now. Yajen did not pressure me into returning straight away and still checks up on me to make sure I'm still on track. I'll definitely be returning once this Covid-19 situation clears up. More...

If there is a time to commit to a lifestyle change, get in shape and be smart about the Covid-19 regulations, now is the best time. I highly recommend speaking with the business owner/trainer, Yajen, he will make you feel comfortable and confident in his process to help you achieve your goals. He really takes his time to work with me as a CrossFit beginner, making sure each workout works well for me and my body. He is very supportive and helps me stay on top of my overall goals every week. I already see a big difference in my strength and confidence. I enjoy this gym so much that I wish I could be there 7 days a week. I have been trying to find a gym where I feel welcomed and part of a community, his gym is the first to make me feel that way. With the Covid-19 regulations, I feel safest at his gym where we can still attend on a daily basis, stay 6 feet apart from other members, and clean all gym equipment after use. He also cleans the gym while we are not there so I feel confident that I am safe and able to work on my goals while being there. More...
