If you would have told me that my body, strength, and mindset could be changed (and improved) in only six weeks, I would have shaken my head and thought that there was no way. After some hemming and hawing, I decided to take a chance with the OLAF Six-Week Challenge to drop some weight and see what all the hype was about. Through the guidance of the coaches, and the Challenge meal plan structure and prep, I reached my goal well ahead of time. When you can see changes in your body (for the better) after the first week, you become motivated, at an almost addictive level, to keep going. The small group size of the classes, no more than ten, and their availability throughout the week make it easy to fit the schedules of busy adults. The strongest selling point for the program was the coaches, Kyle and Dwayne, and the support and guidance they show each person during the class. They push you to be your best, keep going, and not be frustrated. (No burned cookies!) If you want to become a better, healthier, more confident you, it only takes six weeks at OLAF to accomplish all that, and more. Now excuse me while I go flex in the mirror. More...

I walked into Olaf not quite clear of what the gym was all about but I was at ease the minute I spoke with Kyle. The 6-week challenge with ready meal plans designed with every day foods helped to jump start the weight loss journey. 30 minute workouts designed to build strength and flexibility round out this health and wellness strategy. Both Kyle and Dwayne Zimmerman make this gym what it is, a safe, encouraging yet challenging place to craft a better you. I’m staying on beyond the 6-weeks. Thanks guys! More...

I have had a phenomenal experience with OLAF fitness. I felt welcomed from the moment I joined and throughout my time with them I was constantly impressed by the amount of attention and knowledge on the part of the trainers. Not only were the trainers great, but the member community was fantastic as well. There is no performance anxiety, no judgement, and tons of support and positive reinforcement! Working with this gym enabled me to reach my goals in a safe and healthy way and put me on track to achieve even more. OLAF's program works, and it builds healthy foundations for daily activities as well as performance activities. I highly recommend this gym if you want to make real, longterm and positive lifestyle changes. More...

I just completed my six week challenge and while I sometimes found it hard to resist my cravings it has been well worth it in the end. I shied away from another gym I had a membership to and tried to do workouts at home and just wasn't getting the results I wanted. Part of this was definitely due eating too many carbs and sugars. The meal plan was a bit of a challenge to do at first but overall I felt much better and less weighed down. I really liked being set on specific days to go in with no excuses and work out. I agree with others that this gym does not judge and I met some really great people here. This was a huge concern I had initally starting this but it has been well worth continuing because I am slimmer and felling all together better about myself. This is just the beginning to a healthier me that Olaf helped me guide me to. Can't thank everyone there enough and I loved the morning crew :) More...

Well I can’t say enough good things about OLAF fitness. They are wonderful. I was so scared to join since I’d never been to a gym also I’m older (56). Well it’s the best decision I’ve ever made. I have just completed the 6 week challenge. I’ve lost 17 pounds and 3% body fat. Not only are the work outs fun .... the coaches are awesome. Always helping and full of encouragement. It’s like having your very own personal trainer. Also the other people in the classes are AWESOME!!!!! I’ve made new friends. Olaf fitnesses is my happy place. I cannot believe I’m saying this!!!! Me the biggest couch potato .... loves going to the gym !!! They really have thought of everything to make you succeed. They help with an eating plan and are always available to talk and help. If you want to get fit and strong and have a fantastic time doing it go to Olaf fitnesses.... you won’t be disappointed. More...

I have to say I was a little hesitant to do the challenge OLAF was offering, I hadn’t actively worked out at a gym in a while. Kyle was very nice and energetic during the initial consultation. We set goals, talked about meal plans and workout routines. I worked out at various times so I got to meet a ton of members that also used OLAF, everyone was very nice and I didn’t feel the judgement like at other gyms. Kyle and his crew of trainers were personable and friendly, if I had a question I felt comfortable asking them. They were amazing throughout my whole challenge. In the end I crushed my goal and actually exceeded it. I would definitely recommend OLAF for those that are up for a challenge and are looking for a smaller group atmosphere. More...

OLAF totally changed my perception and opinion of CrossFit gyms. Unlike the unsanitary and crowded CrossFit facilities I had seen in the past, (where "coaches" would be leading classes of 25+ people with not nearly enough lifting experience to be doing the exercises they were told to do with very little attention to proper, healthy form) OLAF is an extraordinarily well organized and professional gym.
You will never be in a class with more than 6-8 people, which allows everyone of the coaches to give individual attention to every participant during the course of the entire workout. It's basically personal training for a fraction of the cost.
On the coaches, I don't have enough positive words to say about them. Every instructor at the gym has extensive athletic and physiological/kinesiological knowledge, and place such an emphasis on healthy, proper lifing mechanics that they will make sure every tiny little movement in every exercise is mechanically sound. They truly care about your health and progress.
They are incredibly warm and motivating to every member no matter what your experience level is and break down the intricacies of Olympic lifting so effectively and patiently, making the gym extremely accessible and comfortable for anyone from experienced Powerlifters to someone who has never lifted a weight before. The group workouts are designed to ensure that anyone of any fitness level will have a workout that will completely kick their butt everyday, and they team atmosphere that is fostered is very enjoyable to be a part of.
There is absolutely no way your body and mind will not be transformed if you follow OLAFs program and simply show up for the workouts. If you are looking into buying ridiculously priced personal training sessions from a gym chain and/or are curious about CrossFit, there is no better place to go than OLAF. Seriously, the best gym around.

I used to not enjoy working out, all of that changed when I walked into OLAF. The coaching is amazing. The coaches know my strengths and weaknesses. They challenge me daily. The coaches care about their athletes and are willing to help them with whatever they need to be the best possible version of themselves - whether that is food choices, sleep, or healthy habits. I love the community of OLAF. We are all very supportive of each other. I have made some great friends. I enjoy the fact that I am held accountable for showing up for class and giving my all. I am the healthiest that I have been in years - and I have the owners and coaches of OLAF to thank for that. More...

My wife and I have been going to CrossFit OLAF for a little over a month now. I've had gym memberships before, but this is different. OLAF's staff of instructors offer much more individual attention than you'll likely get at a typical gym, since they offer one-on-one training and small classes with a maximum of five, but often less people in them. Getting instructed and guided by the instructors in the classes feels like personal training, but at a much lower cost.They post the next day's workout the day before on the app and via email if you want to know what's planned. At the class, you're instructed on what the day's workout will be, and guided throughout the class on the best ways to do the moves. Questions about the moves are always encouraged.There are wide differences in experience from beginners to very fit people. Everyone is supportive of each other's efforts, so newbie's like my wife and I always feel welcome and never out of place or like we're slowing anyone down. Each of these workouts has different moves for different levels of ability - beginner, intermediate and advanced. Over weeks and months you graduate to higher levels, but only once you're able to do them.The instructors are very responsive to any health, diet or exercise questions you may have. They encourage you to come to them with any health related questions you have.The staff is very concerned about any health issues or injuries you may have had in the past that affect you and help you work around them. If you tweak something and can't do an exercise, the instructors will come up with a substitute move so you can always move forward. They use the MyZone heart rate monitor and app so they (and you) can monitor your exertion level on their large TV's as you work out to make sure you're getting the most out of your workout. If you're looking for a posh gym with all the amenities, this may not be for you. If, however, you really want to make positive changes to your health and fitness with people and a staff who will motivate and support you - CrossFit OLAF is perfect. More...

The Olaf team have their act together. They make it as easy as possible to work out, while still holding you accountable. They have a clear phiosophy about fitness, one easily understood and shared .The workouts are challenging, but doable. Don't be afraid of Crossfit- each workout meets you where you are and pushes you to your personal limit. You don't have to be fit before doing Crossfit, that's a myth. It's just the opposite. I'm not fit, but with these workouts, I think I will be soon!Make the commitment, show up, and enjoy becoming a badass. The Olaf team will help you get there. More...
