Dropped in on vacation — can’t recommend it enough!
I stopped by CrossFit 9 in St. Pete this past Saturday while on vacation, and honestly, I was blown away. The gym itself is spacious, clean, and really well-equipped — everything you’d want in a top-tier CrossFit facility. But what really stood out was the community. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, from the coaches to the members. You can tell there’s a strong culture of support, hard work, and just genuine good vibes.
Whether you’re local or just visiting like I was, this place is absolutely worth checking out. Can’t wait to come back next time I’m in town!

Dropped in a couple times this week while on vacation, it was so great! I got a warm greeting and shown where the essentials were. The coaches actually coached and gave pointers. They had options for all different skill levels. If you're looking for a welcoming gym this is it! Thanks for having me!

Great gym all around. Very clean, spacious, good programming. Excellent deals for drop ins. All of my coaches were great… there’s one coach I observed while I was doing open gym (not actually in his class) who was obnoxious and didn’t seem competent - I’d recommend avoiding his classes - but besides him every single coach I met was awesome. Highly recommend Crossfit9 St Pete!

I started going to CrossFit 9 in November 2023, I never did CrossFit before. From all the coaches to the members made me feel welcomed. I learned to not compare myself to others but just myself. Listening to my body on movements. I feel more energetic and fit my clothes better. I am still growing and excited to continue. I feel so good my son who is in high school joins me on the weekend for the class. To name a few of all the great coaches…… Jake, Zack, Chris, Bryon, Taylor, and Gabe.

Lost Its Welcoming Vibe and Turned into a Globo-Gym
I'm deeply saddened to share my experience with CrossFit 9, a place that I once considered a vibrant community and a second home. My journey began with great enthusiasm, drawn in by the challenging workouts and the supportive, inclusive atmosphere. However, my once-positive view of this gym has been significantly tarnished by a combination of personal injuries, ongoing billing disputes, and a noticeable shift in the gym's social environment.
In recent years, the gym has lost much of its welcoming charm, morphing into a space where cliques dominate and the sense of community has waned. The warm greetings and encouragement that were once hallmarks of every session have been overshadowed by exclusivity, making it increasingly difficult for newer members or those not part of these inner circles to feel included. This was starkly highlighted when I, despite being a long-standing member, faced outright coldness from individuals I've known for years, drastically changing the gym's once-friendly vibe.
A particularly disheartening moment came when I was removed from the gym's social media group after expressing interest in purchasing equipment that was up for sale, a move that felt unnecessarily exclusionary and petty.
My time at CrossFit 9 has also been marred by significant injuries, including two cracked disks and a torn shoulder. While I recognize the inherent risks of high-intensity training, the lack of communal support during my recovery added a layer of isolation to the physical pain, making the experience even more challenging.
Additionally, the administrative side of the gym has been a consistent source of frustration. Billing disputes have been frequent, adding unnecessary stress and detracting from what should be a straightforward and enjoyable gym membership experience.
CrossFit 9 once epitomized the essence of community and shared growth, but the shift towards a more impersonal, "globo-gym" atmosphere, coupled with the issues I've faced, compels me to reconsider my membership. I hope this feedback prompts meaningful changes, restoring the gym's sense of community and improving its administrative practices. I will never recommend people to this establishment.

Worked out at "globo gyms" most of my life.. never really understood the hype of group workouts or crossfit. Man, I was missing out. I've been going to CF9 for ~2 years now and it feels like a second home. Everyone (coaches and gym-goers) are super friendly and all around great people. Would recommend to anyone from a seasoned vet to someone who has never picked up a weight in their life.

Kicked things off with amazing training sessions with Gabe. He’s the best. Now, enjoying a combo of 9fit & CF and loving every minute of it. The classes are challenging and varied, the athletes are great, and the coaches are fantastic. The cherry on top? Joe-ga. Joe’s yoga classes are the first yoga classes I’ve enjoyed in a long time (& I’ve been doing yoga off/on for 20+ years).
Highly recommend all of the above.

You get out what you put in to anything and this gym has clearly put in the work to create a comfortable and community oriented space. Coaches are dynamic, attentive and create great energy. I was intimidated by weight lifting and had never picked up a barbell before starting. Amazed to look back at the progress I’ve made and it’s due to the coaches that consistently know how to push and motivate each member individually. All around great experience to workout around some 11/10 people. Hard pressed to find another gym like it.

My daughter and I have just joined the gym after taking a hiatus and I’m sure glad we are back at it. They have so many class times so you don’t feel like the classes are packed, there’s plenty of equipment for everyone and it’s always clean. I can’t say enough about the coaches that have been there for years it’s like going back to your hometown and being welcomed right back. They make sure your safety is a priority while making sure you reach your fitness goals.

In my experience you never know what you’re walking into when you go to a new CrossFit gym and this is easily the best one I’ve been to.

Every CrossFit gym review will say this gym has the best community, but this one really cares about everyone. Even if that means telling me to pause my membership to heal from a chronic illness. The care is really deep. I’m not the strongest or most athletic person in the room, and being very shy I’ve disappeared in the back of other CrossFit gyms before to continue making mistakes. Not here! Quality coaching and little reminders constantly that help keep me out of pain. And great explanations to keep me learning to move better all the time! And you can’t beat a group who really cares about St Pete and shows up to fundraiser and support our awesome city.

On the road a lot for work, and, as a result, I’ve learned that all gyms are not created equal. All told, I’ve probably worked out in 50'ish CrossFit boxes around the world; not a ton, but enough to have a feel for what’s out there. With that as a frame of reference, I can say, unequivocally, that CrossFit9 is my all-time favorite. I love it so much that I’ve made it my "home gym" for almost 7 years. There are a lot of reasons why it’s so special, but the primary thing is that it’s not just a gym; it’s a community.
CF9 is owned and operated by friendly, warm, intelligent, athlete-centered and community-minded health and fitness PROFESSIONALS who know how to support a wide range of athletes. They are prepared and excited to meet you wherever you’re at in your journey, and that makes a huge difference. Wanna bro out? They've got you covered (and someone will always be standing by for a post-wod finisher of bicep curls with you!). Looking for lower impact programming with a focus on nutrition, mobility and longevity? There’s a class for that. Rehabbing an injury and need tailored solutions to thorny body issues? They've got you there, too.
I came into CrossFit9 with a bunch of lingering knee, shoulder, and back issues from my past (sports, adventure, and sitting down a lot for work have certainly taken their toll), and I didn’t find the gym until I was in my early 30’s. This place has helped me recover from (and overcome!) some serious physical limitations while simultaneously investing in my fitness and my future! They helped me to run half marathons, climb mountains, swim endurance races, ride long-distances on my bike, and, most importantly, to be able to keep up with my son. Couldn’t have (and wouldn’t have!) been able to do all of this without their support, coaching, expertise, and motivation.
It’s not Kansas, and I’m no Dorothy, but “There’s No Place Like CF9.” Come for the fitness, stay for the people. I know I did, and it’s been a privilege to sweat side-by-side with these awesome people ever since. 5-stars!!!!!

I was originally referred over to CrossFit 9 by my chiro for some 1-on-1 sessions to help expedite some recovery from injuries I suffered. I was a little skeptical as my perspective on CrossFit as a whole, wasn't that great. However, my experience there has not only dramatically helped me heal from my injuries, but my trainer Dane Leavy has helped me become more agile, flexible and stronger than I have ever felt, even at the age of 44. During my several months of “rehab” with my CrossFit trainer Dane, I was able to really take in the environment around me and developed a greater appreciation for CrossFit, but specifically CrossFit9 as a gym and CrossFit Community. It helped that this gym was the closest Crossfit near me, but I would travel across the city now if I had to. The owners clearly care about their members, which showed immensely during the early stages of the pandemic when they would literally lend equipment to their members so they could work out at home and the frequency in which they have the staff sanitize the gym and it’s equipment and the rate in which they repair and replace older equipment. The entire staff is very diverse and accommodating to all and they offer CrossFit workouts for every level of fitness. I have recently visited other local Crossfit gyms in St Petersburg after being invited by friends and have yet to find a gym that compares. They offer entry level Crossfit classes, advanced Crossfit classes and everything in between, including many specialty CrossFit classes including stretching classes, endurance classes, etc.. I can’t recommend CrossFit9 enough to everyone I know as they are clearly the best CrossFit gym in Saint Petersburg. I originally came to CrossFit9 to recover from a serious of shoulder injuries and the pic below clearly shows how they have helped me not only recover, but advance.

When I moved to St Pete I was nervous I wouldn’t find another down-to-Earth/not intimidating CrossFit gym…. Luckily I found CrossFit9 and the transition was smooth. I feel welcomed and appreciate the efforts the coaches make to keep me injury free. They actually coach and aren’t afraid to (nicely) call out poor form. I would definitely recommend—especially for beginners who might be nervous to try CrossFit—this place is for everyone!

Crossfit 9 is the best CrossFit box in St Pete, what makes it the best?
1. It’s coaches, simply a pleasure to work with. Very knowledge and extremely helpful when explaining techniques foreign to the athlete. These people can teach you anything, even how to breath properly.
- It’s athletes, everyone is friendly and welcoming, a true community. If you leave this box after a drop in and don’t have a new friend you went to the wrong box.
- It’s equipment, the owners of the box do a great job maintaining and improving the equipment. There is multiples of everything so there’s little worry about not having the equipment you need. They even have a mace set if you want to feel like Thor the god of thunder for a day.
- Its facilities, the gym is massive two rooms for simultaneous classes and a section great for open gym. Multiple bathrooms/shower which are clean and are perfect to get that stank off once you finish a tough workout.
- It’s programing, the variety offered in the programming always keeps athletes challenged and never gets old. Programming does a great job of hitting major muscle groups consistently allowing the athlete to improve and minimize plateaus. Their tiered system allows for athletes of all abilities to augment the workout to their level of fitness. So if you want to get swole, you get swole. If you looking for a burn, you burned. If you just want to get out and do something you can do that too.
- It’s Specialty programming, if you suck at anything, this gym will get you to suck less. Specialty classes on everything from muscle ups to Olympic lifting, running to ninja moves (seriously), I think even offer a class on breathing? Either way you’ll get better with a smaller class to work on the specifics of each movement.
- It’s community events, every month these guys put on social events that help bring together it’s membership, these events are fun and take advantage of all the best spots in St Pete from breweries to beaches. A good time to see people in normals clothes.
Overall, this gym awesome. If you’re looking for a CrossFit gym to hit in St Pete for a drop -in or you want to join long term, I recommend Crossfit9. You won’t regret it.

so started off a little bad as the trainer couldnt find my paper work even though i had paid via the online website and made me do a waiver again that cut into my warm up. Its been tough for gyms the last few years so i let it slip lol. the rest was good, the work out was enjoyable (i did the fit 9) i wish they had cross fit at the time i atteneded however i cant complain it was a sunday and every other gym was shut. The equipment was good and the place had a good culture. ended up going to another gym for connivence however this is fine and would have gone again if it worked out.

This is by far the best CrossFit gym I have ever been to. My husband and I have been to numerous boxes across several states in the last 4 years. The coaches are truly amazing. I know CrossFit can be intimidating for a lot of people but you really shouldn’t worry about that here. The coaches will modify each workout based on your skill level. They will stop you in the middle of a workout and correct any improper form so you don’t hurt yourself. They won’t push you to do more than you’re capable of but they will help you reach your goals. They work around any injury/injuries you may have and give you stretches/exercises to help you overcome them. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful beyond belief. If you’re looking to start CrossFit this is the gym for you!!

Dropped in for a 9:30 AM Monday class with Coach Gabe while visiting family. The entire experience, from pre-registering online all the way to ending class drenched in sweat, was professional, efficient, and welcoming. I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2015, visiting many boxes around Europe and the United States, and found CrossFit 9 to be top notch. The class was well structured, with a group meeting at the whiteboard to begin class where Gabe covered the agenda, (warm up, strength work, METCON) demonstrated movements, and outlined goals for the class. Members were welcoming, friendly, and of a variety of experience/ability/ages. I travel to St. Pete semi-annually to visit family and am happy to have found CrossFit 9 as my gym-away-from-home.

When I moved to St Pete, it was a priority for me to find a great gym with a strong community. After trying out a few others, I finally dropped into CrossFit 9 and immediately knew I found my new home. CF9 has great programming, best in class coaches, and a warm and welcoming community.

Been to numerous CrossFit gyms, and this one goes right to the top of the list. There's a good mix of amateurs and serious athletes that make for an inclusive and competitive community. Facility and equipment is top notch. Always cool specialty classes to join or social events to attend outside the gym. Definitely would recommend.

Best CrossFit EVER! These guys are amazing. I tried so many fitness studios across various parts of the country from Orangetheory to CrossFit to Row House, but they stand out. You can feel the energy once you walk in and the coaches are amazing with exceptional attention to detail. Go CrossFit9 team!

Dropped in for a week on vacation and WOW. Literally didn’t want to leave town because of this box. SO many options with classes. Absolutely seamless operation! The coaches were friendly and amazing, all of them. Each seemed genuinely interested in coaching rather than a free membership or a paycheck. Wouldn’t know that there were so many members taking each class because the coaches circulated evenly. The HIIT classes were awesome as well. Very clean and again an absolute seemless operation with following guidelines for COVID, all the members know their roll in disinfecting and sanitizing. Job well done Crossfit 9! Thank you for allowing drop ins and making the process effortless.

This is one of the best gym communities I have experienced hands down.
I started my time at CrossFit 9 with their “5 Weeks to Fit” program with Dane as my trainer. Dane was brilliant, knowledgeable, attentive, and dedicated to helping others with their fitness journey. His knowledge and passion for fitness made me excited to be there working on my own goals. I also highly recommend starting with a trainer, as they will help you feel empowered to work efficiently and healthily in the CrossFit WODs.
Every single trainer/coach is like this. Everyone is knowledgeable, passionate, and truly cares about helping you with your fitness goals. The environment is positive, encouraging, and never forcing someone into a way of working out that doesn’t work for them. If you think CrossFit is not for you, I felt the same way for a long time, but CrossFit 9 changed my outlook drastically and now the daily workouts are the highlight of my day.
Try it out. They will welcome you and make you feel empowered to succeed. Additionally if you are concerned about Covid, they have an open air space with plenty of circulation, options to work out outside, and they are one of the cleanest gyms I have ever walked into.
Do it. It’s a life changing experience.

Best CrossFit experience I have ever had. Came in for two drop-in visits last year while visiting the city. The coach leading the classes was Dane. I really appreciated the focus on teaching the lifting mechanics prior to beginning the class. Most CrossFit gyms I have been to never do this. Dane was very knowledgable and did a great job helping everyone in the class with making sure they were safe and lifting with appropriate form. I am looking forward to coming back when I visit St Petersburg again. Thank you for the great experience!

I joined CrossFit9 because I was looking for a new CrossFit gym in the area. I had previously dropped in at CF9 to workout with a friend during their Pride WOD as well as a few other community WODs and felt welcomed/included immediately each time. The coaches are very knowledgeable about movements, mobility, and have no problems showing people how to modify or scale a movement so they can do it properly as well as safely. I've worked with a personal trainer and have seen SIGNIFICANT improvement with my core strength and stability, which has helped with chronic back pain and during the shut down for COVID, CF9 was quick to rent out equipment, churn out workouts that could easily be done at home, and came up with things the gym could do together (virtually). I could not ask for a better, more welcoming gym community than the one here at CF9.

I joined CF9 because I wanted to take my home fitness training to he next level. What I found was the most supportive, like-minded and generous community I could have ever asked for. I had a lot of reservations about CrossFit, mainly due to common misconceptions that I didn’t vet before... CF9 takes CrossFit to the next level, they care about the basics, mobility, functional movement and you as a person. I could not be happier and would recommend to anyone looking to begin, improve or maintain your fitness level.

This box was my first experience with Crossfit and from the first athlete evaluation meeting, I loved it. The coaches are down to earth and extremely valuable in helping with form, stretching and progress. There are a lot of class time options, they leave plenty of time for sanitizing equipment after class and I look forward to waking up at 5:15am for the 6AM class (who knew). No matter your level, the classes, coaches and members are great.

Excellent gym. Terrific coaches with a passion for continued learning and member development. Challenging programming pushes experienced athletes, while thoughtful scaling makes every workout suitable for all levels. Robust class schedule stands out and makes squeezing in time for the gym an easier task. Whether you want Crossfit WODs, high intensity interval training without the barbell, or hope to stack on the plates for Olympic Lifting programming, Crossfit 9 has all of it. The best part still, however, is the community inside and outside of the gym. I found Crossfit 9 a year ago and have enjoyed every bit. Highly recommend.

CrossFit9 has been a breath of fresh air for me. I was always interested in CrossFit but thought I wouldn’t “fit in” with them because I wasn’t in insane shape like the people you usually see doing CrossFit. I am in nursing school and desperately needed an outlet to relieve some stress. I was welcomed with open arms in CrossFit9. Not only are the coaches absolutely amazing, they push you to be better, and become a second family. They are also so active in the community and are always doing events to bring everyone together outside of the gym! I would highly recommend CrossFit9 to anyone interested in joining!

Everything the other reviewers who gave Crossfit9 5 stars said is true. The staff is friendly and welcoming. They go out of their way to know everyone's name and make them feel welcome and noticed. And there are a ton of classes. On any given day there are a dozen options from 5 am to lunch time to evening. I love the flexibility of dropping in whenever works for me and being able to get a workout in. Chill vibe, nice people, well maintained facilities - the owners Lindsey and Zack have done a great job making sure it's a great place to work out every day. There's plenty of parking, everyone's open, polite and social, plenty of opportunities to get coaching and learning too.

Do NOT buy used equipment from this gym. Recently purchased an Assault Bike from them, was told that the product worked perfectly and had been regularly serviced, but discovered that same day that several key features did not work at all. The owners refused to accept a return or to fully compensate me for the cost of fixing the problem. Disappointing to be lied to and treated poorly by fellow members of the Tampa/St Pete CrossFit community.

I can't say enough good thing about all the coaches, they are dedicated to the members and take the time to motivate you.

This is one of the best CrossFit boxes I've ever been a member of. The other members are extremely friendly and welcoming. The gym has a good amount of square footage, so you don't feel cramped while exercising. The coaches are really knowledgeable and are always able to give you pointers if your form starts to get a little off, if something doesn't feel right, or if you need a scaling option. The owners also continuously purchase new equipment and keep their existing equipment in great shape. I wouldn't change anything about CrossFit 9.

Joining crossfit9 was the absolute best thing I have ever done in my life. It took me a year to actually get the courage to step foot in the door but I'm so glad I did. I have hated any and all exercise my entire life but now it's my favorite part of the day! I look forward to going every single day. I know each and every time I go I will be getting an amazing and fun workout and the best part is you just show up and the coach instructs you on what to do. The coaches monitor you the entire time and ensure you are safely and accurately doing the workout right. The coaches are one of a kind. They ALL truly have a passion to help people. The coaches are what make crossfit9 amazing along with the other members. I never thought I would feel comfortable at a gym or call a gym my favorite place to go but that's what crossfit9 has done for me.

I've been a member at Crossfit 9 for nine months now and could not be happier. I initially thought Crossfit wasn't for me because it looked so difficult. However, I have come to appreciate just how scaleable the workouts are to any fitness level. Over time, you will only get better. I am now able to perform moves that seemed impossible just a few months ago.
What makes this box truly great are the coaches. They are dedicated, take the time to teach you proper form and are your biggest advocates. Members vary from all skill levels and are also incredibly supportive of one another. One thing I especially like about the box is that at the beginning of each class everyone goes around the room and greets each other. This sets the stage for camaraderie amongst members.
The programming is excellent and constantly changing, equipment is top notch and there are numerous class times offered. I highly recommend Crossfit 9!

I've always hated exercising and sweating in general. I was introduced (and bribed) into Crossfit when Crossfit9 held one of their annual Santa Slam's (local toy drive) with a lululemon trunk show that followed. I knew it was a solid workout when, what felt like, every single muscle in my body ached for the next several days, if not for the following week. After the Santa Slam, Zack tailored workouts for me to do during open gym and slowly I moved into WOD classes. What I like most about Crossfit is the grueling workouts usually only suck for ~10-20 mins, the rest of the hour is spent warming up, preparing for the WOD, and weightlifting. The community at Crossfit9 keeps you going back and it's fun constantly meeting new people at the box.

I moved to the St. Pete area in July 2015. One of my co-workers, who is much younger than I constantly invited me to come and try Crossfit. Well, I knew I needed to start working out but I had been procrastinating. So finally, in October I decided to give it a try.
I arrived at the gym and before I went inside I heard the music. Then I walked through the door to see the end of the 6am class. Very intimidating. I asked myself "what in the world am I getting myself into?'
Well, during my first workout I felt like I could not make it, but I did. After it was over I felt like I really accomplished something. I signed up for three months that day. I have now been working out at Crossfit 9 for 7 months. I have lost 50lbs and have gone from a size 4XL shirt to 2XL Shirt.
I love my family at Crossfit 9.

I recently decided to join CF9 after taking a year hiatus from the sport. I have to say I was very nervous, it felt like walking in brand new all over again. I was welcomed with open arms from the first day, and have felt so much support to get back to where I was. The trainers are amazing, and take the time to explain every movement you are going to be doing. They go over the entire workout, and make sure that you understand what you are doing, and help you modify any movements so you basically get the best workout tailored for your specific needs.

I've always enjoyed weightlifting but never went the route of personal training. As a physical therapist, I always thought I was getting by OK with my background. Crossfit 9 changed my perspective on that and it didn't take long to realize how short I was selling myself on my full potential. My form and weightlifting have both improved drastically thanks to the knowledge and insight from the coaches at Crossfit 9. I have learned that no matter what class time fits into my schedule on a given day, I will get the same benefits no matter who's coaching that class. Crossfit 9's coaching quality is definitely one of the things that sets them apart from other affiliates that I've visited.

Crossfit 9 has completely changed my life in just 4 months!!! I just moved to St. Pete from Pennsylvania without knowing anyone or having any sort of crossfit experience. I decided once I moved here to start my life over and try something new... And so that's when I got a membership at crossfit 9. I expected myself to get in better shape physically, but I did not realize how much personal growth was involved with crossfit. Crossfit9 has the most amazing coaches, and because of them I feel like I can do ANYTHING now!! I have lost a bit of weight since I started crossfit which is amazing, but I also am happy all of the time!!!! My mood is overall at an all time high, and my sleep is better than ever. Honestly I don't think I have ever felt this good in my life. I am so much more confident mentally and physically about myself, and eat well now too. Crossfit9 provides me with a community and a FAMILY that accepts me for everything that I am and is always pushing me towards my goals. Crossfit9 is everything I needed to start my life over.. I am so thankful my life has taken me in this direction. Shout out to Zack for recruiting me at yoga and a special thanks to all of the coaches - keep doing what you're doing, because it's working!! Love you all!!

I reluctantly joined CF9 after my husband and friends had been trying to convince me to start for years, and have never looked back! I must admit that I was quite intimidated by the level of athleticism that I saw when I first walked in the door. Zack, the co-owner and trainer took me under his wing and helped me settle into what has become one of my favorite places to work out. I have worked out in many different facilities/gyms and nothing compares to the sense of family and camaraderie that I experience every time I set foot in the door. My coaches (Zack, Lindsay, Chris - I am talking to you!) are supportive and genuinely attentive, and I (surprisingly) found that...yes...I too can do CF. I have previous long-standing neck and shoulder issues that I thought would prevent me from ever excelling in CF, and they have proven me wrong by teaching me how to modify any movement necessary and making sure I stick to the plan. I have never felt stronger or more capable then I do now. If you are looking for a place to workout that caters with ease to all levels of athletic ability, from the out of shape newbie to nationally competitive athletes, make your way to CF9. You won't regret it! This lifelong ballerina has found an unexpected happy home. Love my CF9 family!!!

If you're looking for a first/new crossfit home or simply in the area looking for a good workout, you will be glad you visited CF9.

Crossfit 9 is my playground. I learn something new each time that I'm there. I joined about 6 months ago. I am an adaptive athlete and the coaches super supportive and extremely attentive to my needs. I'm not treated any different than anyone else. The coaches constantly encourage me to challenge myself. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, helping each athlete according to their needs
Crossfit 9 is definitely a family oriented box.
I love the classes and how friendly everyone is to one another.
I'm glad I've found my home away from home.
5 stars to CF9.

Great people and great coaching! Crossfit 9 is where i go to get stronger, get my sense of humor back, and take a break from the rest of my life. Always welcoming, always a good workout, totally worth the money. After 4 years it is my second home!

I was nervous about coming up to St.Petersburg almost 2 years ago, not just because of college, the new dorm, new classes, and making new friends but also because I needed to find a new Crossfit box.My second day in St.Pete after move-in day at school, I walked into Crossfit 9. They have accepted me into their family and they continue to watch me grow.All of the coaches are absolutely amazing and always willing to help you with any and all weaknesses you have. They put more time into their clients and the condition of their box than their own personal lives and it shows! The box is always clean and ready for us to do any WOD. They are constantly keeping up to date with the newest trends of rogue equipment i.e. the peg board. Can't wait to see what these next couple of years bring here at Crossfit 9♥

I have been a member at CF9 for over a year now. I walked in not knowing anything about CrossFit and found out how intimidating it could be. I now walk in challenged by every WOD and find myself pushing myself every time. The coaches are the best and very knowledgeable. They support their clients and help them meet the goals we set. When you walk in, you feel like you just came home. I can't say enough good things about the family that I have made at CF9.

A few reasons I like this place:
- They have classes starting at 5 am and going all the way till closing at 8 pm on most days. They are even open on most holidays!
- They emphasize safety and truly care about keeping the clients injury free. You are encouraged to use lighter weight if your technique is breaking down. There is a fine balance between pushing a client and keeping her injury free. These folks know how to walk that fine line.
- Social events and get together. This really helped me make friends when I first moved to the area.
- With membership you also have access to all equipment in the gym. If you are not feeling like doing a class on a certain day, and would rather stretch or lift weights or do your own routine, you have complete freedom. I mention this because I have been to gyms where you are not allowed to do that!
This is one gem of a place. Very highly recommended!

As a physical therapist, owner of my own business, and Leadership St. Pete Alumni, I had initial reservations of doing crossfit. Research shows CrossFit takes a broad strength and conditioning format--combining running, rowing, weightlifting, powerlifting, kettlebells, gymnastics, and much more. The results of which are evident in improved fitness and performance. However, improper training can lead to significant injuries.
Prior to attending CrossFit9 in February 2016, I had attended a few classes in two different CF boxes in the St. Petersburg/Tampa area. I became immediately impressed with the welcoming and friendly atmosphere from members and instructors. For me, three things are important: feeling like I belong to a family/community; highly trained instructors who provide consistent and regular feedback; and a business that not only puts money back into the business but also gives back to the St. Petersburg community. CrossFit9 meets all of my requirements and so much more! I absolutely respect and cherish how the owner is present almost every day (I do not attend everyday) and truly loves to motivate. One opportunity for CrossFit9 is to get all members to (or have the instructors) enter their results into Wodify. An individual will make greater gains towards their goals when keeping track of their daily weights, reps, and times. Regardless, at CrossFit9 you will see positive changes in your fitness level and your performance and you will become healthier…I know I have.
