CrossFit Chisel is absolutely amazing! I came in with no prior CrossFit experience, and the trainers were incredible – they made everything so much fun and completely non-intimidating. A specially “Osvaldo “ also shout-out to Sarah and her husband for creating such a fantastic place, and to all coaches for being so awesome. The community here is also fantastic, super welcoming and supportive. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend this gym! I am new to CrossFit, and was a bit intimidated to join, however, my experience has been nothing but positive. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable, and the members are kind. In addition, the gym is very clean, which is high on my priority list. CrossFit Chisel is definitely a neighborhood gem.

I’ve been coming here for about a month and really enjoy it so far. I had never done CrossFit before, or even lifted with a barbell before these classes, but they do a wonderful job teaching the fundamentals. Great workout, excellent instruction and a welcoming community!

I started to train with Crossfit Chisel, for about a month (on and off due to work schedule). It such a great community. Alot of the coaches and other folks make you feel comfortable. You get great support from others.
I never did a focus crossfit gym, so I was nervous to attend. I appreciate how the coaches don't rush you into getting the routine or complete the routine fast. To gradually build your endurance and strength. They want you to learn each routine/exercise, to take your time on each class session.focus on your own goals and not others.
Being there for a month I see great results. And continue to attend. To better my health for myself and family.

I joined Chisel Crossfit Gym about a month ago, and I am enjoying the classes and the community. The coaches will help you work on your form and help you build strength and progress even if you are a beginner in cross training like me.

I’ve been coming to chisel CrossFit for the past two months. Even in this short period of time I’ve noticed a great improvement in my muscular and cardiovascular health. The coaches are terrific and they really keep you on task. I also enjoy the format of the workout. The workouts are broken into sections, and it makes the time pass by quickly. I also appreciate that they take great care in making sure that you have a good form. I highly recommend chisel CrossFit

From day one I was welcomed with open arms and with it being my first ever CrossFit gym I was super anxious to try it out at first. The coaches are amazing and they really care about your goals and helping you accomplish them! I’m forever grateful for finding CFC and even more grateful for the relationships it’s built and will continue to build. Go try them out you won’t regret it!!

Moved to the neighborhood a few months back and stumbled in here. After a few successful class pass experiences got hooked and became a member. Very welcoming gym for people of all sizes. All the coaches do a great job of providing guidance through your work and making modifications to fit your skill set.

I moved my Chicago office from the Ukrainian Village to Portage Park and found this amazing box when driving by Irving Park Rd. Made and appointment with Brian and today got my second WOD. I loved the 2 coaches Acevedo and Kevin, the people and the facility! Everybody is ultra friendly and the whole box is huge and comfortable. I highly recommend it!

Update: I’ve been working with CrossFit Chisel for several years. I use it as cross training for my running seasons. As a runner, I’ve benefited from learning proper weight training form and workouts that target muscles outside of my legs. Functional fitness has really helped improve my flexibility and increase my pace by at least a minute per mile. The coaches here are super knowledgeable and this particular community has a healthy variety of levels of friendly competition.

If you think you’re too out of shape, too overweight, or too old to join a CrossFit gym, keep reading. At age 61, I thought I was too. My daughter, Sarah, had been to lots of CrossFit boxes because she traveled for work. She urged me to try CF Chisel, because she said Lawrence, the head coach and one of the owners, was one of the best coaches she’d met. I was skeptical, because I’d hurt my back at a regular gym years ago. My doctor cleared me to start, but she warned me to be careful because she said those “young, fit CrossFit coaches have been known to push clients too hard”. That was 5 years ago. Lawrence and the other coaches scale workouts and the programming so I can work out right alongside everyone else without feeling self conscious — and I have had no injuries. I’ve lost weight and gained mobility, muscle, and strength. The icing on the cake for me is Chisel’s warm, accepting community and clean, lovely facility. My doctor tells me now to continue what I’m doing and she asked me the name of my CrossFit gym. Like I’m telling you, it’s CrossFit Chisel.

Had my first appointment today and the place was closed, though I got reminder texts the hour before and filled out all waivers. Not sure what happened or why they would schedule me for a time they weren't available
UPDATE: Manager called to apologize and explain a bug with the automated message system and scheduler, so I'm on my way to rescheduling my appointment.

While I could throw in critiques about the lack of free parking or not enough ski ergs I will not attach myself to those. The owners and coaches here really try to make the most of this space even as the membership has picked up post-crown era. There is still plenty of room during most sessions for someone to pop into 1 of the back rooms and do some open gym training. They have most of the regular equipment you would expect at a CF box for day-day training. Plenty of bumper plates, ropes, rigs, rings, rowers, tires, bikes, etc. The thing I like here the most is the moderate approach to training form the coaches, the encouragement, the advice (they will tell you if they think you should lower your weights). While its hard to eclipse the gym culture as a whole because of different class sessions and individuals in them I know that nobody ever tries to push you to form breakdown or to get unnecessarily competitive, but there is always some to congratulate you on getting through the workouts. A few of the regulars like to hang out after sessions in the dining area and have a couple sports drinks/beers so that's always nice. They also stay true to the culture as there aren't any mirrors even in the bathrooms.

I joined CrossFit Chisel because I wanted a coach to help keep me accountable. I ended up with 3 coaches all helping me stay on track and progress. Just 6 weeks in and I’m down 15lbs and am the strongest I’ve been in years.

CFC and the training team made CrossFit super approachable. I feel welcome, and get great direct coaching on my technique, my form, and guidance on body motion and flexibility as well. Unlike other CrossFit gyms, CFC is approachable. Never heard of doing “cleans” - no problem you will be coached through the motions and learn how to safely and property do the exercises. Others in the class are friendly, helpful, and approachable as well. 10/10 recommend joining the gym and the community.

Very friendly and welcoming, and great instruction from trainers. I came hoping to add accountability and community to my fitness, and CrossFit Chisel is it!! The people in my morning class are supportive, encouraging, and inspiring! I’ve been here for a month, and I already feel like they are my friends.
The trainers are wonderful. They care about proper form rather than overload. They provide kind and effective instruction mid-workout to help improve technique. They understand the art of balancing kindness and encouragement.
I recommend this gym and this community 10/10!

CFC is a friendly, welcoming Gym that is fully equipped to cater to any level of athlete. The coaches do a great job tailoring workouts to an individual’s ability and pushing accordingly. I was new to CrossFit and have become a believer in both the communal and exercise specific aspects of CrossFit. In general, CFC’s pricing is competitive with other CrossFit gyms. Brian and Lawrence were extremely helpful answering questions and determining the membership that works best for me. Whatever your workout background/goals are, I highly recommend CrossFit and, specifically, CFC.

As an experienced gym-goer I was looking for a new fitness environment that would challenge me, but also feel like a motivating community. I definitely found that at Chisel. I think I’m about 4 months in at this point. This is my first attempt at CrossFit and my strength and endurance has improved significantly and my physique has changed positively too. More lean muscle, my upper body strength and mechanics especially. I always felt like I had weak shoulders but now they feel strong and properly functioning.
The schedule options meet my needs, especially the early AM options.
The equipment is in good shape with the right variety—appropriate for CrossFit but also great when I go to open gym and do my own thing.
The instructors are all great, and unique. I like the variety of coaching styles they offer but always feel properly motivated and guided.
The price is also fair, IMO. I haven’t priced other gyms but I feel I get the full value of my membership.

I joined CrossFit Chisel a month ago and I’ve had a fantastic experience so far! The gym is well-equipped and super clean, coaches are caring and professional, and there is a unique feeling of community among the members. I highly recommend giving CrossFit Chisel a try as they are very generous by offering a free week to potential members! What’s not to like here?

I absolutely love CrossFit Chisel! I was able to loose nineteen pounds in two months with their help so far. The coaches are super nice, supportive, and knowledgeable in all things fitness. If never done CrossFit before, try it out at CrossFit Chisel. I’m one hundred percent sure you’ll fall in love with CrossFit just like I did and all you’re misconception about CrossFit will be put to rest.

I love this place. I'm here most mornings for the 6am class, and it's an awesome way to start the day. Great coaches, challenging workouts, and supportive community. Definitely come check it out. Trying a new place can be intimidating, but Chisel is anything but. Come on out and support a small, locally-owned gym. You'll be happy you did!

I have been enjoying and seeing the physical and mental benefits of working out with CrossFit Chisel for the past 6 months. I really like coming here because the community has been very supportive and they encourage all fitness levels and bodies. I have been learning new skills and refining old ones. I would recommend CrossFit Chisel to anyone who wants to add a weightlifting into their exercise routine.

I walked into CrossFit Chisel about a year and a half ago not knowing what to expect and it quickly became one of my favorite places. Thanks to their training, I'm in the best shape of my life (in fact, this is the only fitness program I've been truly motivated to stick with long term). But most importantly to me, Chisel has a close-knit community of awesome people who inspire me and make going to the gym a lot of fun. If you're at all curious about CrossFit, I would encourage you to check this place out.

Awesome place to workout. In the back I took the punch kick fitness class. And let me tell you. If you have a resolution that you are trying to start. This is a great place to start. It’s very challenging. And you get a great sweat from it. The coach Jose is great. Very motivational. And knows what he is talking about. This is gonna be the next big thing.

Under new ownership and its a HUGE difference.
Heard the gym was under new management and decided to drop in for a "re-trial" class and truly enjoyed the natural community within the gym. Happy to say I am now an official member of the Chisel family.
The respect each of these athletes have for one another is obvious and the coaching has been spot on. I received focused coaching with progression plans on that very first session!
If you are tired of running on a treadmill, or waiting for the moment to start your fitness journey...I would like to highly encourage you to stop by and check this place out.
