Had a drop in today with coach Kendell. Small gym but great environment, great coaching and great people. Even with a drop in, the coaches were super helpful with technique, adaptations and form. Def recommend!

I haven’t been to a CrossFit class in a few weeks and Coach Rob eased me back into it by modifying the WOD. Shout out to Coach Mertz, Coach Joette, Coach Amber, Coach Jon, Coach Duncan, and Coach Mike. All coaches are knowledgeable and give great examples of each movement every class. They provide constructive criticism to perfect the movements. I appreciate all for the support throughout the ups and downs of my fitness journey! Much love!

I love being a member of CFGG. Our coaches are always watching and making sure we are doing everything correctly and safely. They have good pointers on how to improve and encourages us to get better. I wouldn’t be able to improve without all of our coaches at Gris Gris. I am stronger thanks to their help!

Jon was incredible. The way he mastered our warmups to get us ready for 24.1 workout was great. Jon understood that our backs and shoulders would determine how far we went on the workout so his preparation really helped out. Our breathing was a main focus for Giselle and I during the workout and it really showed. Giselle was able to impressively finish the WOD while I did not. Still it was great to do it and give it my best. Thanks again to Jon and the whole Gris Gris team for making us better and stronger each day. Love you guys

Coach Mike did a great job with today’s class! Very effective warmup with some important lessons on run form as well as an efficient barbell warmup. He did a fantastic job dialing in everyone’s intensity for the intended stimulus. A+ effort! And everyone in class had a great time!

I stopped doing CrossFit for a while, after a year and a half later I came back to now CrossFit Gris Gris. They were glad to welcoming me back! Good training, great communication. Coach Duncan recommended me to not over do it since I had stayed out of fitness for a while, listening to his advice helped to finish the workout in a safe manner. Definitely recommend this place!

**Review for CrossFit Gris Gris**

As I approach my one-year anniversary at CrossFit Gris Gris, I feel compelled to share my incredible experience with this fantastic community. From the very first day, I was welcomed with open arms, and the sense of camaraderie here is unmatched.

The coaches are exceptionally knowledgeable and always provide personalized guidance, ensuring each workout is both challenging and rewarding. The variety of workouts keeps things fresh and exciting, pushing me to new limits I never thought possible.

But what truly sets CrossFit Gris Gris apart is the community. The support, encouragement, and friendships I've developed here have been a significant factor in my commitment and progress. This gym isn't just a place to work out; it's a place where you feel a sense of belonging and motivation every single day.

If you're looking for a place that will not only transform your fitness but also surround you with an amazing group of people, CrossFit Gris Gris is the place to be. I can't wait to see what the next year brings!

CrossFit Gris Gris is wonderful. They have exceptional coaches that are invested in your health and training. The gym may not be the newest, but they have been around for several years in an oversaturated market for a reason. The quality programming, instructions, and support you receive as an athlete is outstanding. The coaches motivate you while fostering a safe training environment that is free of judgement. My fit-fam has helped me through a lot. The connections I have made with the members keep me motivated and focused on my overall fitness, health, and mental health. I would recommend CF Gris Gris to anyone who is looking to start or continue their journey to be the best version of themselves.

The members are fantastic. I've met so many wonderful people that cheer me on, lift me up and put a smile on my face after a rough day. We aren't just members and coaches, it truly is a family.

I’m heading into Year 2 at #crossfitfullboresouth and couldn’t be happier. I turn 65 in July and started cross fit 5 years ago. Prior to crossfit I was working out 3 days a week doing a boot camp workout, so when that ended and I decided to try crossfit I thought I was in semi good shape. Haha, what an eye opener. Yes , I had heard the CrossFit horror stories but was willing to give it a try. I started at a different gym and they were awesome and helped me to get going. That gym closed 2 years ago and I and many of the other members of our CrossFit family found Crossfit Full Bore South.

This is such a great place! My crossfit family has grown with the coaches and members. This is such a great place. The coaches are amazing, they work with you, they never judge you if you can’t do all of the moves in a workout. They work with you to help you do the best you can within your abilities. The goal is to be healthy and improve your life, not get injured and no longer be able to workout.

I work out with men and women of all ages, (I could be the Mother of most of them)and there is never any competition to be better than you. Everyone supports each other.

I do my best to go to CrossFit 4 times a week. The workouts are tough and there are times I think I just can’t make it, but a put a goal in front of me and charge forward. It feels great when I complete my workout.

Never doubt yourself, Crossfit is an attainable goal and the coaches, owners and members of #crossfitfullboresouth are the greatest. Thank you all.

The place was clean. Had a nice workout and there were a lot of really strong women in there. A whole lot of strong secretaries staring down at you waiting for you to F-up if you want to.

Let me start by saying, “I’ve tried it all.” I’ve tried Barre, Zumba, Yoga, Pilates, and every Beach Body program under the sun. My problem has always been staying interested. That’s not the case at Crossfit Fullbore.

The workouts are hard, but not impossible. Every day is something different. The coaches always have one or two “scaled” options. Not all of us can do pull-ups or run a 6-minute mile and the coaches don’t expect us to. They tailor the workout for your needs and abilities making it seem as intimate as a personal training in a comfortable class setting. These workouts are fast and hard. They make you uncomfortable, but effectively push you to SAFELY dig deep.

What I have found at Crossfit Fullbore that I haven’t found in other fitness programs is a comradery. We spend an hour a day together every day and it’s hard not to turn these people into your friends. They cheer you on as you workout and push you through to the very end.
I have always been someone who loves working out. I love the sweaty, out of breath, I-may-throw-up feeling. But there is no place I’d rather be.
