Per the response of the owner concerning my review, DO NOT TRUST HIM! Before I signed up for my first month, I was ASSURED that I would not be charged until the END of my first month IF I wanted to commit to a membership. The owner stated that at the end of the trial month, he would send out an email asking whether or not I wanted to join. If I didnt, he would not charge my card. About a week and a half before I was supposed to receive the email, I emailed the owner (ERIC AUCIELLO) stating I would not be interested in joining .Instead, he charged my card $25 more than the agreed upon amount had I decided to join. Note, my month trial still had a week and a half left SO WHY WOULD YOU CHARGE MY CARD, and for $25 more?? The fact is that my hubby and I contacted Eric for over a month via email, phone call, and text. At first he admitted he made the mistake and would debit it back but after a month of trying to contact him, he refused to respond. EVERYTHING is documented, which is exactly why the credit card company decided he was in the wrong and debited the money back in my account. Clear documention does not lie. If you were not in the wrong, why avoid us for an entire month?! Be warned that the "good reviews" are not based on complete truth about the "box" bc members receive money off membership if they leave a good review. Personally, the "training" I received was mediocre at best. I received more disciplined training at a yoga class. Also, Eric wished me the best at the end of his response to my review. He sure was not that pleasant during our email exchange (he finally responded when I told him the credit card company found him at fault). He was rude and extremely unprofessional. My how we put on to deceive potential members!

I wish I could give this "box" negative 20 points ! After a trial month, I decided Phase 5 was not the place for me. I notified the owner, Eric Auciello, a week before my trial month was over and told him I wont be returning for the second month (his classes were NOTHING like what he described they would be, but thats another story). Therefore, I was told my card would not be charged for the following month. Instead, not only did Eric Auciello charge me, but he charged $25 more on top of the original fee!! My husband asked for the money to be credited back to our account. He apologized and said he would immediately take care of it.....HE NEVER DID! We emailed, called, and texted him CONSTANTLY and he completely avoided us! Thankfully, our credit card company took care of it and credited the money back based on the many documents we had that proved Eric Auciello to clearly be in the wrong. Per his actual box, thats another interesting story thats too long to write. Ill just say this: people have incentives to write good reviews. So, naturally after reading the reviews, I expected way more than what I received.

As a former collegiate softball player, I yearn for competition. I had searched desperately to fill the void and finally found what I needed, Phase Five Training. Phase Five Fitness is my softball. The gym is my home field, the trainers are my coaches, and my fellow crossfitters are my teammates, opponents, and fans. The person I find myself competing with, is the same person I find myself cheering on. Regardless if you are competitive like me, when all is said and done Phase Five Fitness is not about who had the best time or lifted the most weight, it is about self achievement, did you do the best that YOU could do? The competition is just there as a way to reach YOUR optimum level. In my experience, the guidance and support from Eric, including the other trainers and athletes, changed my entire outlook on what it means to be “in shape” and to be “healthy.” My new profound knowledge has transpired to all aspects in my life and I’m thankful everyday to have found something that I know is making me a stronger person inside and out.

This gym is amazing. The facility is great. The coaches are courteous and extremely knowledgeable. They make sure everyone gets the attention they deserve in every workout and movement. Even the part time trainers have extensive knowledge in the field. They all also have the credentials to prove it. Coming from an exercise science background myself, I really appreciate this organizations mission and execution. The coaches stay up to date with the actual science, rather than latest fads or sales pitch. They are more than just your weekend warrior/ fitness enthusiasts. The Phase 5 coaches are professional well-educated critical thinkers. This box is a whole step above most CrossFits I have been to. I was pleasantly surprised at the standard of excellence they require from the coaches. ON TOP OF THAT! The atmosphere is extremely welcoming, friendly, motivating, and challenging (both coaches and other clients). I really love what they are doing here. Keep up the good work!

I went here about 6 months and loved it. I have been to many gyms were the gyms were focused strictly on gains with a disregard for people safety, in this gym however the teaching is safety first gains second. This lets them maintain a low injury rate and really make the goals you want. The instructors were excellent always helping with form corrections. It is kind of hard to find being in the back of a complex with one sign in the front of a building. It is very friendly to people new to crossfit and a very positive atmosphere which helped me push myself further then I thought I could go. I recommend to anyone looking to try out crossfit or any veteran looking for a competitive gym.

I have been going to Phase 5 for one year now! This is the first exercise program that I have seen results, which means it truly works! All the trainers are very knowledgeable and carefully watch your technique so you dont get hurt. This gym has become my family and everyone is so supportive! I have tried many different health programs and this by far blows all the rest away!! If you are thinking about trying crossfit you have found the right place!!!

The original plan was to try out all the crossfit gyms in the area and then decide which one to stay at. This was the 2nd gym I tried and Ive been working out here for almost a year now. I absolutely love it! The trainers have been so welcoming since day one. The atmosphere is great too. I never feel like Im being judged if Im too slow or cant lift as heavy as everyone else. There is only positive encouragement. This is the perfect gym for all levels.

I have been with Crossfit Revolution/Phase 5 Fitness going on 7 years now and hands down this is the best gym I have ever been a member of. Eric KNOWS what he is doing when it comes to training and programming workouts. Most gym owners throw a workout on the board and are like "do it", as where Eric sets the workout for all levels, beginning, intermediate and advanced. Not to mention the atmosphere is awesome in there!! Thanks Eric!!

Been got to Phase 5 now for 2 weeks and it is a good thing Im trying to improve my health. They are helping improve on what I have learned from crossfit already. They push me to finish WODs with only motivates me to come back again. Hopefully when its all said and done my goals are met and Im happier for it. Thanks guys.
