Besides Maui and Disneyland, Crossfit 916 is my other favorite place! My husband and I started at CF916 three years ago on a Groupon. My main reasons for wanting to try it were because 1) I hated the "meat market" feeling I got at traditional gyms. 2) I hated waiting to use equipment on busy nights at those places 3) I wanted to try something different because I wasnt motivated enough to always work out on my own. I had no idea what to expect when I showed up at CF916. I was happy to learn that the work outs were done with a certified trainer for the entire hour of class. I didnt need to know all of the movements right away, because they were there to teach me and correct me if I wasnt doing it right. I also didnt need to be really strong because I was able to scale the workouts to fit my specific abilities. It didnt take me long to realize that what my membership at CF916 really gave me was a personal trainer/motivator for an hour...every time I go. If I had to pay someone at a globo gym to train me as often as I work out, I would have spent hundreds per week. I pay a very small fraction of that for my membership at CF916. The owner, Aaron, is a trainer and a programming genius! He designs all of our workouts and I must say he has a gift! Hes also full of energy and its contagious! If you have specific goals, Aaron will design a program to meet your needs. And if youre injured, the trainers will show you how to modify or supplement movements to avoid further injury. Besides the standard crossfit classes, CF916 also offers kickboxing and the most awesome powerlifting classes. You can come in to watch a class before you try it, and even sign up for a free trial period. Oh...and I almost forgot to mention, youll meet some of your best friends there.

I checked out other crossfit gyms in my area and found that Crossfit Elk Grove to be the most professional and well maintained by far. The coaches are accredited, knowledgeable and approachable. I was fresh off the couch and never did any weight training before. But the coaches go over EVERY movement before we begin and especially helpful is they always go over all the ways to "Scale" the movement depending on your fitness level. I had to scale all the movements to the very basic skill level until I became stronger and the coaches felt I was doing them in proper form and technique to avoid injury. Also, when I have to, I can bring my 5yr old daughter with me and she can hang out in the kids area, safely away from the floor but in clear sight and ear shot at all times. Check out their website to see pictures. Plus the kids can watch their parents. Its fun to glance over at her to see her doing burpees just like me. Regular gym vs. crossfit "box"? I was a member of a large gym for years (and hardly used). Over and over I swore I would get on a regular workout schedule. And over and over Id show up, march over to the treadmill lose interest, hit a few Nautilus machines and leave. Id see the same people but never interact. Thats when I decided to look into crossfit and give myself 3 months to try it. I was VERY INTIMIDATED at first. But when Id go to my class, Id see the same folks and coaches and everybody always said Hi. The coaches new our names. Its been nice over the past year to connect with my crossfit buddies and see each others progress.

I loved this gym, been here for 4 months now and I havent even feel bored with cf916 workout program. The coaches and members here are super. Non of them will give you any negative in here. Everyone encourage each other. The coaches in there pay close attention to you, especially when you are newbies. They want to make sure you are understand each workout movement . They make sure you do your best at the same time they make sure you dont get hurt. If your form is not correct, they will tell you to stop, have patient to guide you step by step. When the 1st day I step in into this place. Theyve already treated me like family here. I am a stubborn person, I had a lot of injuries before I join this place. So time to time my joint will ache like crazy but I still go in to workout. I though I can hide those pain, I was so wrong. The coaches there, they pay attention to members. Coach Aaron saw my facial expression, he walked up to me, told me to minus the weights I was lifting because he can tell I was pushing myself when I was not supposed to. Yep, they were that good. I been through a lot of gym, those coaches there just show you the move and walk away. Here at CF916 is totally different experience.

I found my new home!!! LOVE THIS PLACE!! I found this place on yelp & from the reviews they were right on with the description of what to expect. I have never done Crossfit in my life, and always see my friends post in the bay area who take it. So I decided to give this place a try and from the 1st time I attended class I knew this was a place where I would be calling my Crossfit home!! People welcome and greet whether it is your 1st day or whether you have been coming for years. Since I joined I have met 4 instructors and can say they are consistent with being very supportive, encouraging, and will guide you to good form if needed. I encourage ALL who are interested in Crossfit to come here!!!

I love CFEG! There is a real comfortable, caring vibe at CFEG. The coaches are all super knowledgeable and friendly. Everyone here - the coaches and the class members, really support and encourage you. Crossfit is the way to go to get stronger, fitter, lose weight, and basically feel better. It’s fun, challenging, and you’ll never be bored. I’ve been crossfitting for about 6 years now and coming to CFEG for over 4. I can’t imagine crossfit at any other place. If you are looking for a crossfit box to join, this is the place!

Ive had a cervical 4-7 fusion, shoulder surgery, an annular tear at L 3, 4 and herniated discs at C3, T1, L2, S1 and osteoarthritis in my left knee from trauma in Desert Storm and Iraqi Freedom. Despite this, the trainers at CFEG make my workouts challenging while enhancing my range of motion and strength. Im 55 years old, 100% disabled and I recently won a cross fit competition.
