I’ve only worked with Casey a couple of weeks and can already tell my body is building lean muscle. This has changed my opinion regarding CrossFit. I thought it was about lifting with poor form. However, we’re working on mobility issues and form more than any other class.

Amazing Crossfit box! The trainers are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. There are several classes during the morning, day, and evening to choose from. They also host different types of events apart from the regular workouts. Highly recommend if you are serious about getting in shape or just curious about Crossfit.

I have been training with Casey for over 4 years now. I started with him at Crossfit Body Mechanic and have followed him over to Crossfit FTM. I started Crossfit after recovering from major back surgery, full inter body fusion of L5-S1 in 2012. Knowing this, Casey was cognizant of tailoring workouts to my ability and kept on me about scaling weight keeping my ego at bay. I am a Registered Nurse and have a good working knowledge of how the body works and I can tell you first hand that Casey's knowledge of the anatomy and bio-mechanics is outstanding. On occasion, I may have tweaked a muscle, whether it be in the hip, back, knee or elbow and Casey has always offered up exercises to do at home and on occasion has had me perform them right there at the box. There have been many times where he's personally fixed a muscular problem I've had given his knowledge of bio-mechanics. Going above and beyond for his clients like that sets him apart from most coaches out there. He cares about his clients' physical and spiritual needs and begins each class with a quick but very effective prayer. The new box that he is running, Crossfit FTM is very family oriented. My daughter will attend classes with me and he is always aware of the music that is playing and will quickly change it if it is not family appropriate. Something that I've greatly appreciated. No one wants to work out with their 15 year old daughter while unedited gangsta rap is playing. That has happened to me at other gyms and I've always appreciated him keeping his box family oriented. The workouts are tough and challenging. Equipment is superb. He has a happy go lucky attitude when coaching and can get stern and quite motivational when he sees you slacking. Safety is his priority. I never thought I would be able to dead lift over 300lbs after having a lumbar fusion, however, I am now approaching 400 after training with him. He focuses on proper form and mechanics constantly. Stretching my thoracic/lumbar area during his warm ups has definitely lead to a miraculous recovery after such an invasive surgery and I owe much of that recovery to his technique and motivation. I would highly recommend Crossfit FTM to anyone interested in getting involved in Crossfit for the first time or seasoned Crossfit veterans.

This place is fantastic.. Owner runs a tight ship that is clean organized. Unlike many of the crossfit gyms in town, this one does not make you self conscious about your ability level. Good place to get back into the fitness world

I've felt comfortable since day one at Crossfit Body Mechanic. Every athlete is supportive and there is no negative competition, you will only want to push yourself harder. Both Casey and Rich know what they are doing and the gym is very clean; so ignore any complaints about this box! Come see for yourself!! :)

Excellent box and excellent coach. Casey helped me learn HSPU, muscle ups, double unders, butterfly pull ups, and so much more! His facility is a great environment to train and make friends. I've made many great new relationships here and I even met my beautiful girlfriend at CFBM!

I can't say enough about Casey as an awesome coach and Kristina as a amazing medical massage therapist! I did things I never thought possible while doing Crossit at Body Mechanic. As a Mommy of 2 (age 4 & 3),felt like wonderwoman after crossit training! Highly recommend the gym and massage theraphy side as well. Work outs were Challenging and rewarding!

I had a great experience with CrossFit Body-Mechanic. Casey and his staff were so patient with me....an older, out-of-shape newbie at weight-lifting....but they pushed me to give it everything I had!!!!!!!!! I didn't know I could do the things I accomplished. Thanks guys for pushing me. Every time I left CrossFit I felt SO good, physically and emotionally. Unfortunately I'm headed back to North Carolina but I hope to return to CrossFit Body Mechanic when I'm back in Florida in the fall. And maybe I'll teach you some ballet moves!!!

After hearing a friend .Cross Fit for several months I finally decided to give it a try. I had been a member at a local gym for several years and although I was not in the best shape in the world I was a fairly fit person. When I attended my first WOD I was amazed by the warm welcome I received from the other members that day. Even though I was one of the last people to finish I was cheered on and motivated by everyone there. I have now been a member of Cross Fit Body Mechanic for 18 months and in that time I have increased my strength levels higher than I ever imagined, I have made friends that I like better than a lot of my family and have a much better self image. Casey is an awesome coach who not only motivates you but is very concerned with teaching proper form from the beginning. He always manages to push you to work harder to achieve levels that you usually don't think it is possible to reach and is the first in line to congratulate you when you do hit that new goal. Because egos are left at the door you never feel like an outsider or feel intimidated by the ability of others. Stop wondering and Stop making excuses........Come give Cross Fit Body Mechanic a try!!!!

I've been attending Casey's for a couple months now. I was very apprehensive about returning to cross fit after the last box I had been to. Several of my co-workers had told me it wasn't going to be the same. I had seen some amazing results from these people and decided to at least give it a try. I was impressed with Casey's program from the time I walked in the bay door. I was led through a lower level training to start with and when he felt I was ready, jumped me up to the rest of the group. There is no competition but the environment will make you push yourself to your limits. We go through a warm up phase that reinforces the movements you will be using. Then we hit the conditioning phase, and no work out has been the same yet.
I attend the gym based on the results I'm getting not how it looks, and I can see the results. Keep up the good work Casey

I have been at CFBM for 5 months now, and while I have been to other gyms this is the only one that has ever accepted me as family and not another paying client. I have been exercising solid for over a year now and I while I have lost weight, it wasn't until i joined CFBM that I also was able to improve on simple things like pull ups and sit ups. CFBM is not a gym its a family of people who truly act like a family should; always there to help each on any level of life. You don't get that at other gyms.

i started at Body Mechanic over a year ago and fell in love with it immediately!!! the atmosphere is phenomenal and the workouts are always brutal at the box (which i love)! casey and his staff strive to make sure that everyone feels welcome and that anyone and i do mean anyone can complete the WOD. no matter your skill level or expertise, you will be challenged by the WODs. The people in the box always are there to help and cheer you on. it doesn't matter if its your first WOD or your 100th WOD! we push each other to finish and to try to be the best. i wouldn't choose any other box!!

I am hooked. After 6 months, I can't imagine my life without crossfit. I am 24 years old with a herniated disk at my L5-S1. Before CF, my max deadlift was 315lbs. Last week, I lifted 420lbs. Thank you Casey!

If your looking for a place to workout where your always going to be pushed to reach your full fitness potential, then Crossfit Body Mechanic is the place for you. Being a Doctor of Physical Therapy I know how the body is supposed to move and function, its good to know that Casey is really invested in his clients. He makes sure that you are using proper form and technique to reduce your chances of injury but also to maximize your potential. I recommend this box to all my friends, family and patients.

I've been going to CrossFit Body-Mechanic for over 2 years now, and can't imagine going anywhere else. Casey always takes the time to explain and demonstrate techniques that are new to many people and watches closely to make sure they are performing them correctly to prevent injury. The workouts are always challenging, and you really feel a sense of accomplishment when you are done. If you are looking to walk or run in place for 45 minutes in an air conditioned building while you get caught up on your latest TV program, this is not the place for you. If you want to be the fittest you have ever been in your life, give Casey a call and join us at CrossFit Body-Mechanic. You won't be disappointed.

CrossFit Body-Mechanic' is the only place to go in the area for safe, monitored and intense workouts. With the professional guidance of Casey, staff and his assistants, regardless of your physical condition - they will take you to another level you thought you never had and then additional levels that are quite awesome and surprising. I speak from personal experience as I had no idea what my body was able to do and I am extremely pleased with the results and even more pleased with the comments I get from family and friends on how I look. I have been with Casey now for over 5 months and I am in the best shape of my life (stamina, cardio and physique). The amazing comment I have for this review is that being in the best shape of my life is only a small part of why I love cross fit and more importantly Casey' place - a larger reason is the community environment you will find at CrossFit Body-Mechanic. It is a geat feeling to be comfortable with your surroundings when you work out and even greater when you feel like an integral part of the group/team/family. Very friendly and outgoing members, a great coach and professional in Casey and if you want to feel good and look great - join now and experience what this team can do for you.

I live in Texas and have been attending a local Crossfit gym for the past 2 years. However, I took a new job in early 2012 that required extensive travel to the Tampa area. As everyone who travels for their job knows, staying in shape on the road is extremely hard. Always eating out and bad hotel gyms definitely do not help the cause. I wanted to continue my Crossfit training in Tampa but wasn’t really sure where to go. I found Cross Fit Body-Mechanic on the web and saw that is was close to my normal hotel. I called Casey (owner/trainer) to see if I could come by for a trial. I knew I had found something unique on my first visit. I loved his workouts and the atmosphere of the gym. Everyone attending was very friendly to this Texas visitor. He was willing to work with me on my travel schedule and so I decided to join. His workouts were nothing I had experience at my local crossfit gym as they pushed me to my limits every time. I would recommend Cross Fit Body-Mechanic to anyone looking to change their lifestyle.

Wow, where to begin. 9 months ago I decided to give Crossfit another shot after a not so great experience at another box. Little did I know that visiting Casey @ Crossfit Body Mechanics would completely change my outlook on fitness and my overall health. Casey makes your health his personal business. And in doing so, I dropped 30lbs and nearly 10% body fat in my first 6 months.

Crossfit BMC is more than a place to go workout. It's a family environment. I've met some great people so far and look forward to meeting many more. All ages and fitness levels are accepted here. You will be pushed to your limits (when you're ready) and encouraged by the people around you. It really is a great feeling and experience. You'll find police officers to school teachers and everything in between!

Thanks to Casey and everyone at Crossfit Body Mechanics for their hard work and dedication! Your work is truly appreciated by everyone. I look forward to being a member there as long as I'm physically able!

I've visited a handful of boxes (we don't call them "gyms") over the past year. The CrossFit community is a friendly and helpful group, but some boxes are just not that inviting. CrossFit Body-Mechanic is very inviting. You know from the moment you meet Casey that you are part of the family and your health and fitness are just as important to him as they are to you. From scaling down to pushing your limits, you'll be encouraged and cheered on as you meet and exceed your goals. All age groups are represented - yes, kids classes too! - all sizes and shapes and fitness levels. I recommend this place to everyone that's looking for a new progam. Be ready to sweat, get dirty, and push yourself to new limits. You won't be disappointed.

I Love Crossfit!!...BUT NOT THIS GYM!...After trying out Crossfit a few times at different boxes I finally committed to making a life style change and joining this gym. When I started, I received plenty of individual attention from Casey, the owner, as well as his 2 assistant coaches. BUT this place has gone down hill. Since the other reviews, the gym has expanded in the number of clients, but the number of staff has not. There is very little coaching given to moderate and advanced athletes. The coach to client ratio is sometimes 30+ clients to 1 coach. On top of that Casey also works out with us most of the time instead of coaching us; leaving us without assistance. Sometimes there is an assistant coach teaching a beginners class on the other side of the gym, but she/he can help so many people at one time. People are not getting the help they need most of the time, because there are not enough coaches on the floor. The place is a serious injury waiting to happen. I did not see myself progressing, so I left for another box. At all of the other Crossfit gyms I have tried out in the area,there is usually 1 coach for every 10-15 clients. Those coaches also have more certifications and are able to teach past the beginner stage. Overall I would only suggest it as place to try out for a month with a cheap Groupon, to see if Crossfit is for you. Then if you like it, find a better box! The few extra dollars its costs to go elsewhere are SO WORTH IT! -Again- This review does not reflect my opinions about Crossfit in general--just this particular gym. -Also this gym is terribly dirty

If you are looking for a place that’s relaxing with fancy machines and mirrors on the walls where you can work out at your own pace…this is not the place for you. However if you are looking to change your life, to be pushed by trainers that know what they are doing, to become part of a community of people who respect and encourage each other CrossFit Body Mechanic is the place. No matter what your fitness level you will be welcomed and treated like you are part of the CFBM family. I have been training at CFBM for 8 weeks and I have seen changes in my body and my mindset that I would have never thought possible in that length of time.
