I’ve trained at many boxes, both regularly and drop-ins. I decided to give this box a try. I introduced myself, mentioned my experience, and explained that I looked up the published WOD on their website and purposely chose to start there on that day given that WOD. Despite that, I was greeted with a very unwelcoming and holier-than-thou attitude. Admittedly, the person who was in charge of signing me up wasn’t the usual person. I only knew this because this person complained about their new administrative duties. Maybe this person was having a bad day, or maybe this person really isn’t meant to work customer service, but that doesn’t give carte blanche to be rude. I could go into great detail about this person’s cluelessness regarding scaling of exercises, failure to pay attention to detail, false advertising from their website, and just a general bad attitude, but I don’t feel like ruining my day by reliving the experience. In the end, I was essentially asked to come back another time for my intro session. I left knowing that would not happen. I don’t mean to trash this box in its entirety. I’m sure they have other coaches who are competent and encourage a more positive vibe with their community of crossfitters. This review is simply to give the owners/managers something to be mindful of regarding their service staff.

This place has changed my life! On my first visit, I was walking towards the Massage Parlor next door. Until a Native American Man approached me, he told me that my life would get better if I joined this gym and that he would befriend me for life. It was truly tempting. He also added he would purchase my Shwarma next door as an added bonus. So I said why not. Ive been here 8 months now, Ive met such a great community. Ive met some Canadians, unstoppable Native Americans, smiling gingers, shepherds pie lovers, and some guy from Mallorca. The coaches are very knowledgeable, and help you where you want to be. The program caters to everyone, Except those with egos. There are barbecues and get togethers. Youll quickly make friends and meet so many people that will help you during each workout. Ultimately, my goal was to reduce my cholesterol and maintain my blood sugar, I couldve easily changed my diet, instead I joined CFTC. As you can see the results are eminent. See picture.

First, Im not a crossfitter. I first went to this gym at the recommendation of a very good friend. He was spot on here. The coaches welcomed a total newbie without hesitation and helped to tweak a few of the exercises to smoothen the learning curve. Coaches seem to spot and assist before you realize you need a little tweak. Ive got major shoulder issues; they modified the workout to ensure I could still get a good workout and not harm myself further. The members themselves are pretty awesome as well; they frequently motivate and look out for each other. The owners seem extremely committed to improving all aspect of the gym from facilities to staff and continue expanding their offerings. They also aim to build a great sense of community with frequent social events. MY only regret is not living closer to workout with them more frequently; that said, when in Tysons, I try to get in a workout with them.

I was hesitant to try crossfit because of the reputation that crossfit-ers are hyper competitive and are overzealous about it. Thankfully, I happened to walk into CrossFit Tysons Corner. The owners and coaches could not have been more welcoming, and while there is lots of motivation to work hard and get fit, I havent experience any of that "crossfit" zeal I had heard about. Lots of laughing and joking, while getting in a pretty tough workout. The coaches were terrific about helping me learn the program. I had been a gym guy for a long time, but many of the crossfit exercises were new. The coaches made me feel comfortable from day one and are very knowledgable. Ive now been doing it for a year. Im in MUCH better shape today, despite working out at a gym daily for a decade before I joined. I look forward to going. Its social as well as physical. Two big thumbs up!!

Yesterday was my first day ever stepping into cross fit place, and admittedly did so, because of the affordable of CrossFit Tysons. I suspected that once I gave it a try I would like it, however, other places in the area are ridiculously unaffordable. The coach was super great and provided great feedback during the workouts. Nearing my last set of a workout, I tried to add additional weight and as I explained to the coach, he insisted not adding on weight and instead suggested that I add an additional set in. I appreciated the fact that he realized I was a newbie and didnt push me or allowed me to push myself and ease into it. I will be back for sure!

I tried Crossfit over 10 years ago and at the time I thought it wasnt for me. About two years ago I joined CFTC and it has been amazing. I now realize that the reason I didnt like it 10 years ago was due to the gym I originally went to and lack of support I received. CFTC is the complete opposite from my original experience at a different gym. The coaches welcomed me with open arms. Everyone is friendly and really helps push you through the workouts. The coaches have helped me improve quickly but safely. I am in way better shape and feel healthier because of CFTC. You guys are awesome!

I had been thinking about starting Crossfit for the last year, but it took a Groupon deal to get me started. Once I got in the door, I was hooked! The owners are friendly, welcoming, and super receptive to feedback (new classes, times, open gym!). The coaches are patient, really knowledgeable, and encouraging. There is just the right amount of push, and theyve helped me through a bunch of (mostly mental) plateaus. I would recommend CFTC, and have, to anyone thinking about starting Crossfit. It took no time before I felt like I was part of the CFTC family!

The coaching staff brings a wide range of experience, expertise, and instruction styles. Youll find first-timers working in class alongside athletes whove trained for years, which allows for faster skill development and fitness gains. Everyone is friendly, no egg-heads or ego-maniacs. Competitive pricing, nice changing and shower facilities, top-notch programming, and Tysons is quickly becoming the place to be.

Super friendly staff & Coaches! I was a 1st timer to Crossfit when I tried out Crossfit Tysons Corner and never felt left out, even some of the regulars helped me get use to the different W.O.D.s. All level exercises give me something to push for and the positive environment provided by the owners & staff have me returning weekly! Love this gym!

I went to a regular gym for a long time before joining CFTC and my first workout at CFTC was more of a workout than my whole experience going to a regular gym. The owners are friendly, the coaches are great, and the variety in the program is great. If youre looking for a workout that will make you feel great, you should stop by.

I absolutely love this gym! The coaches are fantastic and really take time to get to know and understand each member and their fitness goals to help them improve. Youll see amazing results while enjoying the fun, social atmosphere of the classes. CrossFit Tysons Corner made me look forward to working out!
