Ive been with Spearhead since they opened their doors, over two years ago. Id done it all before that: yoga, pilates, barre class, aerobics, hours on the treadmill and running outside, and even a few years of my own strength/cardio sessions at the gym. None of the preceding workouts yielded the results Ive gotten from Crossfit. Without a doubt, I am stronger, more fit, in better shape, and a faster runner after my two years with Spearhead. But I could do Crossfit anywhere, with any box; there are a handful within 5 minutes of my house. I am loyal to Spearhead because Ive never experienced a community like the one the members and owners have created within the four walls. Many of the members have become my close friends. We all check in on each others families, jobs, health, and activities. We often extend workouts into a weekend dinner and/or movie and its not remotely uncommon for members to spend extra time after a class deep in discussion with one another. This matters to me because by its nature, Crossfit thrives on a sense of community and team work. While were all working to beat the clock in a class, every member has genuine concern that the person next to him is feeling good, working hard, and getting cheered on. This environment is in direct relation to the coaches and their vision for the gym. The coaches at Spearhead are without ego or competition between each other and members. They devote extra time before and after class, personal texts and emails - anything you need to get that extra encouragement or advice on technique. The coaches are all extremely knowledgeable in their trade and work to stay current in the industry. Theyre fun. Workouts are consistently filled with music, laughter, high fives, and smiles. Crossfit Spearhead has been a gift to my family and me (all members) and I cant recommend highly enough.

My son and daughter, along with their spouses, have been asking my wife and I to join them at CrossFit SpearHead for more than a year. I am 52 and my wife is 50; neither of us have actively or consistently worked out for 25+- years, so we kept putting it off. We finally decided we needed to do something to help us lose weight and become more healthy, so we acquiesced in mid-December of 2015. We were connected with Sean Crotty, who would be on ramp-up instructor, who reached out to us to schedule a starting date. We were very nervous, but determined to give it our best. Although it is strenuous and requires serious dedication, our experience has been awesome. Sean is a highly educated and trained instructor who patiently walked us through the CrossFit SpearHead pre-training, making sure our backs, necks, and joints were protected from injury during our progression. He continues to monitor our progress to ensure our health and success in our goals can and will be met. We are now in our fourth week and continue to receive hands-on direction from each of the coaches and yoga instructors (yes, I have now begun to do yoga!). Dallin and Carlyn Frampton, the owners, are energetic, participatory, and foster a positive environment where individual success is fostered through team-oriented support. Each member of this program is warm, encouraging, and motivating; true friendships are forged in this gym. We could not be more pleased with our experience!

I started at SpearHead three months ago. As a semi-competitive marathon runner who had done nothing with weights for nearly 20 years, I was extremely intimidated by the thought of trying something as far from my comfort zone as CrossFit. After a series of running-related injuries derailed some of my marathon goals, though, I knew I needed to do something that would strengthen my core and fix some of my muscular imbalances, so I bit the bullet and decided to face the humiliation. From the start, any embarrassment Ive felt has been purely self-created, because Ive never enjoyed working out with a group as much as I love going to SpearHead. Dallin and Carlyn (two of my favorite people) have created a CrossFit community in their own image--even better when you get to know it than you expect based on first impressions (which are impressive enough). The coaches and gym members are uniformly kind, helpful, encouraging, and fun. Although I never expect to be very good at a lot of the CrossFit movements, I will keep going because I am seeing gains (modest though they are), feeling great, and having fun.

Hands down the best gym Ive ever been to! I was skeptical of Crossfit, but from the very first time I walked into Crossfit Spearhead I was welcomed by the owners, coaches, and members. Every workout Ive been to the coaches have made a point to check on me To ensure I was comfortable with the movements and knew how to perform them properly. I could tell from the start that this gym puts high priority on safety, high goals, healthy living, and having fun while you workout! They never were pushy about joining, and let me come to as many free community workouts as I wanted till I felt comfortable starting. The atmosphere is definitely family friendly with a childrens play area for the kids while the parents work out, and even classes specifically set up for kids and teens! I would recommend Crossfit Spearhead to anyone looking for a positive change in their lives.

Terrible!!! I figured Ill give it a try from the good reviews. I was promised a week free trial and got charged my second day their. But it didnt bug me to much but on my third day I was told to show up at 3:30 so I left work early to do so, when I arrived the trainer their didnt know me or expected me. He didnt let me work out and pretty much embarrassed me by pointing me out I. Front of the class by telling me to go stand aside and watch. Trainer tell you to show up at a certain time and are unreliable. People their do what they want no real motivation save your money and TIME. Not worth $125. Trainer never motivates he is always talking to people and never teaches. Getting a gym membership is way better. My honest opinion.when I asked for my money back after the third day he hasnt replied to my text or calls. That says a lot about their trust.

I bounced around to quite a few different Crossfit boxes when I moved to South Salt Lake, until I tried Crossfit Spearhead. The second I walked in the coach approached me to welcome me, as usual, but then so did everyone else! The atmosphere at Spearhead is unbelievably amazing; no matter how fast, slow, experienced or inexperienced you may be the members and coaches will welcome you in the gym and help you feel like a part of the Spearhead family. The gym family is there to lend support in fitness, nutrition, skill goals and in personal goals as well. At Spearhead I have made friends who will cheer me through a difficult workout, especially if I am the last one to finish, then come over and tell me I did a good job and to ask about how my life is going. It is a great place to workout and I feel lucky to be a part of it!

I have done CrossFit at several gyms around Utah but I have never seen anything like what I have received at Spearhead. Even though I had been doing CF for 3 years it wasnt until I started coming here that I learned the right technique and movements. I have seen incredible gains since I started listening to these amazing coaches that not only know the right things to teach but also know the best way to teach it and to motivate me to follow. They have built an incredible community of members and coaches that support each other, cheer for each other, and challenge each other to achieve greater results. Even though I am now over 50 years old I have seen great gains in my overall fitness. This is a great gym!
