I dropped in at CrossFit Candor while on a trip to Tuscaloosa and had a great experience. They have a large facility with plenty of equipment, friendly members who all introduced themselves and welcomed me, and great coaching throughout the class. I’ll definitely be back!

I have been apart of the Candor family for about 4 years and I have loved every minute of it! As a college student, it is a great way to relief stress from school and enjoy working out. All of the coaches are very nice and really pay attention to each and every athlete, before, during, and after every single workout. I have never been more excited to workout, then when I go to Crossfit Candor. Every class is full of laughter, joy, and of course, getting fitter! The people and place have truly changed my life for the better.

I joined Candor in 2017 (& still going 3-4 times a week)....My family had moved across town and I was so nervous about joining a new CF gym, but I have felt at home from day 1. Jamie & Lance have created an environment that is so genuine. They truly love what they do and each athlete that walks thru those doors. Honestly can't say enough good things about this place....LIFE CHANGING!!

My wife and I dropped in as were in town for the weekend and needed a place to workout. The drop-in process at CrossFit Candor was easy and super efficient! When we arrived folks at the gym were very nice and welcoming. The gym itself was spacious, clean, laid out well, and in a nice location. Definitely giving the team at CrossFit Candor two thumbs up and will visit them again next time I'm in town.

CrossFit Candor is a warm community gym made of friendly members and coaches alike. From day 1, everyone introduces themselves, welcomes you with open arms, and encourages you to keep coming. I think it’s so great that so many people at different fitness levels and different walks of life can come together and each tailor the workout to fit their needs. I have to admit I had a lot of anxiety about trying CrossFit, specifically I was concerned that I would not do something correctly and hurt myself. CrossFit Candor walked me through a safety training and the coaches look after you in every class. I am well taken care of and this creates a conducive atmosphere for success. 10/10 would highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to try CrossFit.

Candor has a wonderful faith based atmosphere with excellent management and knowledgeable coaching staff. The community of athletes are welcoming and down to earth. The facility is always clean and organized. The owners and the coaches are fully invested in the success of the athletes; including exercise technique, nutrition, and overall health. They offer a wide range of class times and will adapt to any fitness level. A place the whole family can grow together.

Candor has completely turned my mindset on fitness around. I didn’t go to the gym for like 4 years and now the one part of my day I look forward to is my hour in class. The coaches are amazing and the gym family is awesome. I was standoffish at first because I was not in good shape at all but Jamie and Lance as well as the other coaches made me feel so welcome. SO glad I found my new gym family!!

Candor is the best!! As a mom with young kids, I definitely was OUT OF SHAPE and I was scared I wouldn’t be able to “keep up” with everyone else. But with modifications, and patience and teaching from the wonderful coaches, I found out I was able to do it! There’s no judgement from anyone, which is my favorite thing about this gym. Everyone is welcoming and encouraging. I’m so glad I decided to try it out. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made!! This gym really is for EVERYONE!

Been a member at Candor since August of 2018. I joined because a couple of my friends did it and I liked the idea of not having to plan out a workout. Four years later and it's still one of the best decisions I've made! Not only have I seen vast improvements in my physical strengths, but I have an amazing community of friends because of this gym. It really is more than just an hour long workout where in you punch in/out. I've made numerous friends and been blessed with the best community of people because of this box. Coaching since 2020 I've also gotten to witness members, new and old, achieving goals and celebrating new PR's weekly.

Great environment for working out and being healthy! The coaches at candor are very hands on and helpful in every workout, giving precise instruction on each movement and technique. The coaches and owners also make sure to make any new member feel welcomed. There's also a great community of people that are supportive and working for the same goals. Highly recommended workout experience!

I've been to Crossfit gyms across the country and have never felt as at home as I do here. The coaches are dedicated to every single person in the gym. The atmosphere is more family than anything else, I love it! This gym is also a huge server of the community. Try em out, you'll be glad you did!

I can’t say enough good things about this gym. I would never have considered myself a “CrossFit girl” but over the 4 years I went to CrossFit Candor the coaches and other members taught me that I was physically and mentally stronger than I thought possible. Members vary widely in age and ability: fit college students, pregnant moms, retirees, impressive athletes, and everything in between! This gym felt like a family and had me working out consistently for the first time in my life. Jamie (one of the owners) truly and deeply cares about each of the members and has created such a supportive and uplifting culture that I never expected to experience in a gym.

I got married and moved a month ago and Candor is one of the biggest things I miss about Tuscaloosa, it truly is a special place!

Candor has been incredible for my young athlete. While she has grown in strength and knowledge of form and movement, she has grown even more in confidence. She looks forward to the days she gets to attend and I know when she’s there, she receiving personalized coaching, instruction, and encouragement. We are so thankful for Candor!

I have been a part of Crossfit Candor from before day one. The Cormier’s are a great Christian family that followed their hearts with God’s blessing and developed a special crossfit gym/ community. It’s not just a crossfit gym, but a place to work out at any level from elite athletes to never have done anything at all, to adaptive and special needs athletes, to rehab from injuries/ surgery, or to just need to move and sweat. I am two years post open heart surgery (4 bypasses) and one year post 2 stints and have done almost all of my rehab at Candor. Love this place!!!!

This gym is truly like no other. I’ve dropped in to a few different CrossFit gyms and I’ve even tried the go-in-and-do-your-own-thing type of gym, but absolutely nothing compares to the atmosphere or the facilities at CrossFit Candor. It’s full of welcoming members ready and willing to encourage you not only as an athlete, but in life in general. Candor taught me to love working out and to love Tuscaloosa! As a college student, I dread the day I have to move away and say goodbye to this gym!!!

Moving across the country left me with apprehension about finding a gym that I could grow physically as well as mentally and spiritually. I went on a small tour of different gyms and Candor is where I found my tribe. These are my people. I cannot recommend Candor enough - the coaching is phenomenal and they take their time to explain why we perform a movement, not just how. The people here are really what makes it though. From day 1 I was welcomed and I look forward to coming back every single day.

If you’re thinking about it, do it. Candor is the perfect mix of fitness & family. The coaches are trained & certified and can adapt any workout to meet you where you’re at in your fitness journey. My husband and I have been members at Candor now for 3+ years and have made lifelong friendships and lifestyle changes because of it. We have integrated daily fitness into our lives and Candor is the biggest reason, we just keep coming back!

Community. Family. Friendship. This gym quickly became a special place that I could call "my gym." From the first email to the last workout, the environment is inviting and encouraging. I began in May 2018 and by October I knew that I wanted more. So, I began coaching in the spring of 2019. Why? Because these are my people and this is my gym. I haven't been able to experience that anywhere else. If you are thinking about giving CrossFit a try, I would strongly suggest this gym.

CrossFit Candor is a great gym. It has good equipment, 24/7 access, the latest ski and bike machines, excellent coaches, challenging programming, and talented and hard-working athletes.

But that's not why I joined Candor after my gym closed in 2020. I chose Candor because of the environment, the family-style atmosphere that Lance and Jamie create. Lance and Jamie meet athletes where we're at and propel us forward. They challenge us to be better, work harder.

I didn't join a gym. I discovered a culture of encouragement that cultivates a desire to be a better version of myself.

If I could give 10 stars I would. Being a former college athlete who is used to working out with a team this place is like home for me. It’s an incredibly encouraging place no matter what level of fitness you come in as, beginner or expert. Everyone celebrates your achievements and pushes you to be your best self. The owners are incredible at supporting you and checking in to make sure you’re okay when they’ve noticed you haven’t been coming. You’re not gonna be just another member to them. The coaches are the most understanding and encouraging people you’ll meet. Always pushing you to do your best but not forcing you to do anything you’re uncomfortable with. I also love that we all do the same workout but it’s able to be tailored to your specific needs. All around an incredible environment, family/ team vibe, supportive and encouraging. Highly recommend!

My husband, 16 year old daughter, and I decided to embark upon a family fitness journey nearly 4 months ago. We didn’t know what to expect when we first visited Crossfit Candor. Jamie and Lance have cultivated an environment where coaches and members want you to succeed and encourage you along the way. We were met, from day one, at our individual fitness levels and are already stronger - mentally and physically. Crossfit Candor is more than just a place to workout. It is a community of people that embrace you as you are and support you. I can’t say enough great things about them!

I have been involved in CrossFit training for over 10 years, Candor for the last 2. As a training facility, Candor has pushed me to athletic levels I never seen. As gym owners, you’ll never find anyone who genuinely love and care for people as much as Lance and Jamie. It has been a pleasure to be a part of the Candor family.

Business is in the rear of the building. I found it by accident since I though it was all just employee parking!

I'm not a member, nore do I work out nearly enough. HOWEVER, if I did work out - I would love this place! It's small, but all the equipment looked clean and in good shape. There wasn't a large amount of people there, so it was more intimate. It's a hole in the wall business, so an introvert like myself would be super happy.

If you like show off work out places, like Planet Fitness, this isn't the place for you. If you're more private and want to work out without an audience, stop by and say hello!

When I first visited Crossfit Candor I was skeptical and scared. I was over 300 lbs, in the worst shape of my life, and other gyms and diets did not work for me. Three months in my life is changing. I am becoming healthier, stronger, and most importantly I can move again. The coaches have been top notch. They have monitored my progress, making sure I am able to do each exercise and that I don't injure myself in the process. The exercise is hard but it will make positive changes in your body and mind. The best part is the community. Everyone wants to see you win.

Candor is here in Tuscaloosa waiting to change your life. From reaching your fitness goals to giving you a community that makes this town feel more like home, Crossfit Candor offers a well-rounded experience. After working out here for about 18 months, I can say that Candor is so much more than just a gym to me. Lance and Jamie work tirelessly to build a place where their members feel welcome and challenged so they are set up to thrive. They have phenomenal coaches, and because of that I have some pretty awesome friends that workout next to me everyday. I could not recommend this place enough!
