I ended up in crossfit due to packing on weight and joining the obese category. I talked my girlfriend into joining with me only after taking pictures of ourselves because they dont lie. WE ventured to our first crossfit place . Having never done crossfit before, but having been in and out of the gym my entire life, and also working at a hospital in Palm Beach where coworkers were embarking on the crossfit journey, I realized I chose the wrong facility. My experience was terrible. I felt like a piece of cattle shuffled through a small room of sweaty people. the wod was posted and we were given the go to do it. Problem was first I was not in shape enough to perform these exercises at the intensity that the others were. Second there was no instruction on lifting and form to prevent injury. This sent sirens off inside me. I had knowledge of crossfit port Saint Lucie and the owner Fortune Santos, knowing of her accomplishments as a champion body builder. Once again I convinced my girlfriend lets just go check their place out, before we get hurt at the current facility. We met Edson Santos and he convinced us to stay and do one class. I was amazed that there was personal instruction and modification of every exercise for each individual until your strength improved. Training classes for lifting are mandatory to learn form and technique and the nutritional support is impeccable. . I have been at crossfit port Saint Lucie 5 months and have lost 34 pounds and have gone from not being able to do a sit up to learning Olympic lifting. Everyday is a challenge and accomplishment. The encouragement and fun atmosphere are a bonus and we are one big family. ALLYSON

Crossfit to us is a very intense physical representation of the movement of life. It exposes to us any hinderance we have inherited or put on ourselves and provides us with the answer at the same time. It forces us to remain in the moment, to not look for an escape or a remedy, to remain with what is. That moment is the clash between your past and present and it is felt in every fibre of our bodies with every second that ticks off the clock. A great crossfit gym is a community. A place without competitive comparison, which only confines us to a limit or standard. Instead, competition becomes an enjoyable means of pushing each individual and in turn the community, as a whole, to new places. Where the importance lies on the individual achieving the very best they can, the community becomes a reflection of their achievement. A great coach sees you as you are without judgement. They listen to our groaning complaints and remove the limits and ideals we place on ourselves motivating us to embrace the becoming of something new. They celebrate our small gains and good form. Crossfit Port St.Lucie, it’s members, coaches, Fortune and Edson are a wonderful representation of all the things one could hope for in a crossfit community. It was an absolute pleasure to suffer through Fortune’s programming. Fortune and Edson have found a wonderful balance between challenging our limits and motivating us to push through at the same time. If you are looking for real change in your physical being and in your life Crossfit Port St. Lucie will take you to a place you didnt think possible. Aaron & Kara

I have worked out in many different types of gyms over the years, but the best experience by far, is the one I have at Cross Fit Hard bodies in St Lucie West every day. This is the real deal. Owned and operated by Edson and Fortune Santos, the focus of every class, training session and group workout is on safety and technique/skill building. Edson is a trained coach and takes developing athletes seriously. He pushes you and encourages you, all while ensuring you are performing at your best. Fortune is a professional athlete and one of the biggest cheerleaders you will ever have in your corner. Never have I felt so supported or encouraged as I do at Cross Fit Hard bodies. Even more unique is the environment they both have cultivated and nurtured with their clients. You really do feel like you are part of the family and everyone there is pulling for you to succeed. If you are serious about your gym experience without enduring injury, then this box is for you. Dont be fooled by others claiming to offer the same program. The expertise you get at Cross Fit Port St Lucie is what sets it apart. Come check it out and see why we say "your workout is our warm up."

I spent 2 years going to a gym and working out, hoping to reshape my body. After all this time, I had barely noticed any major changes and had became extremely bored with the work outs. Thats when a friend recommended me to go to Crossfit Port St. Lucie. I went to their website and saw their video to get an idea of their workouts. Just after seeing this video and watching what people were doing for their workouts, I was amazed at how much there was to becoming fit.I saw how intense each workout was and how much dedication people had toward it. They were performing at their highest level, using every bit of energy. I was convinced to try this out. As I first joined, I started out with the Boot Camp workout to get used to some of the techniques, as well as getting used to the routine. After a month to two, I transitioned into the Crossfit workout, and ever since i have been getting stronger and stronger each and every single day. I am in the best shape right now than I have ever been!

When I first heard what people were doing for workouts and saw them leaving the gym drenched in sweat, I thought that they were crazy. There was no way I could do any of the daily workouts without killing myself! Then I was convinced to try it out. I started out as someone who hadnt done any "real" exercise in over 20 yrs with all of the usual pains that come along with age. Fortune and Edson adjusted the workouts to fit my limitations and still help me push myself. After the first workout (when I barely made it through the warm-up) I thought I was done. The encouragement and support I received from the members and staff convinced me to keep trying. They shared their own stories and trials and made me feel like I fit right in. I am proud to say that now I AM one of those crazy people, leaving dripping sweat and feeling amazing with my achievements! Come join us...you know you will fit right in!

A fantastic gym to train!!! The trainers are helpful and very knowledgeable. Everyone here is eager to help one another to work, and make no mistake about it you will work, sweat, and be sore the next day, but you will see results. If you are new to a Crossfit Gym, getting back into it, or working out for the first time in a long time, I would highly recommend Crossfit Port Saint Lucie mainly because the trainers work you into the exercises. The focus is on doing the exercise correctly. There is no jumping into the deep end of the pool... And, the gym is kept cleaned and organized. So, Crossfit Port Saint Lucie has excellent trainers who care about your safety and want to help you improve in your workout, the people who work out there help each other, and the gym is kept clean and organized. You can sit here and read all these reviews or get out and check it.
