This was my first time doing a CrossFit workout and I had a blast. Holly (full disclosure: one of my good friends) and Neil are fantastic instructors who push their clients but who also always kept it friendly. Holly and Neil also were particularly encouraging given my relative inexperience with the CrossFit method of doing things. Other people there for the first time felt similarly supported and motivated. The CrossFit CE space is great, and it has has all the equipment necessary to get in a really tough, rewarding workout. The location in the city is really convenient for those living in West Loop, Ukrainian Village, or Wicker Park. The setup, space, and equipment are all great at CrossFit CE. But, again, I cant emphasize enough how welcoming, encouraging, and awesome both Neil and Holly were not only to me, but also to everyone else who came to the workout. Great place, even better people running it!

CrossFit is the closest athletic experience Ive had since college sports. It makes your workout routine at the gym obsolete. Ive experience a lot of CrossFits across the country and CrossFit CE is outstanding in every regard. There is a boxing ring in the middle too which was super legit. They even let us spar for fun. The classes are awesome and Coach Holly is the best. Shes a D1 athlete, ensures everyone (from novices to experts) is using good form, and most importantly makes everything really fun. If you live/work in this area and are wondering what CrossFit is all about or simply want to get results from your workout, you definitely need to check out CrossFit Competitive Edge.

I went to CrossFit CE last Saturday for the first time and fell in the love with the place. The facility is great and the coaches are even better! Its clear Holly and Neal know what theyre doing and are so passionate about it that you cant help but get excited and have a blast while youre there. Having recently moved from San Francisco where I belonged to one of the largest CrossFit gyms, its so refreshing to have coaches who clearly understand fitness and give each and every person the attention they need to become the best athlete they can be! Ill be joining CrossFit CE.

As a someone that usually picks a spin class over heavier lifting, I was worried the workout wouldn’t meet my cardio desires and boy was I wrong. The workout was the perfect mix of weighted movements mixed with cardio bursts and bodyweight challenges. I was drenched with sweat by the end and completely exhilarated. Holly and Neil are exceptional coaches. They were motivating, corrected my form when needed, answered all my questions and created an atmosphere that was fun. If you are looking for a fantastic workout that flies by, CrossFitCE is the place to go.

CrossFit CE was a great location for a beginner CrossFit athlete and college athlete to mix cardio and lifting! The facility is awesome and really coming together, when the second floor is complete it will be the perfect area for more sprinting work! The class was very fun and energetic for all levels. Holly is amazing, and as a college athlete she knows so much, is super encouraging, and helpful! I would recommend anyone to go in for a first class or a veteran CrossFit athlete, great overall atmosphere!

This is the second crossfit gym Ive been a part of, and while I fell in love with crossfit at my first gym, the community and coaches here are what set CrossFit CE apart. Some gyms are very intimidating as a newbie, but this is a gym for all fitness levels. Youre in good hands with the coaches here and plenty of support from the other members.

Only had a chance to go a few times before I moved from Chicago, but I loved everything about CrossFit CE. The staff was super supportive and made sure everyone was comfortable with the WOD. After playing sports through college, it was tough finding somewhere that I both enjoyed and challenged me, but CrossFit CE did it every time!

Crazy helpful and knowledgeable staff combined with an incredibly supportive group of members makes this one of the best and most effective gyms Ive ever been a member of. Cant stress enough the impact of the workouts and how much fun I have with this crew.

this has to be the best CrossFit box Ive ever been to. Holly and Neil are extremely knowledgeable and avoid the typical CrossFit stigma by providing top notch coaching and have developed a welcoming community atmosphere. Customer for life.

This gym has everything you need and more to get the best workouts of your life. More importantly, the coaches consistently bring a level of positive enthusiasm that is contagious to anyone who works out there. I love CrossFit CE!

Neil and Holly run a great program here where they really break down every workout you do in Crossfit. The gym has a great spirit where its very clear it is a community; I felt welcome at CE the first time I ever tried it.
