CrossFit High Road

If you are looking for a great facility, excellent coaching, and a fun community and you live in the Chino area you owe it to yourself to check this gym out. I have been to many crossfit gyms to drop in and get a work out in over the passed few years and this one is tops on my list. I loved their friendly staff, and the clean environment. My number 1 pet peeve is a dirty gym and this place was spotless. Coaching was great, very knowledgeable and they gave me easy to understand cues. All the members were friendly and made me feel part of their community. I felt right at home. Other perks were the shower, kids room and abundance of the best equipment I could ask for. No shortage of space, bars, weights, rowers and more!

Like many others on here who have reviewed Cross Fit High Road I can honestly that my experience here has been great. Every single coach does a excellent job of explaining each workout beforehand and making themselves available to you if you have any questions. There really is a no man left behind mentality and would recommend it to any one who is considering joining a CrossFit gym.

I would like to share my experience with this gym. I bought a 1 yr membership for my daughter that is 17. After going to a few classes we found out that her medical issues do not allow her to do this kind of a workout. I called and spoke with Jake one of the owners that stated there are no refunds. I told him that if it is a permanent medical issue that we were not aware until the classes were taken that it was not good business to treat people like that. I called my credit card company and was told that since I did sign a contract they could not give me a refund. I do not have a copy of the contract and they refuse to give me one. I paid over $ 1700.00 for this 1 yr membership that could not be used. I was finally offered a $ 600.00 refund for the yr. I declined and said I want to cancel the whole yr for a complete refund minus the few classes that were taken. I was refused. I posted the membership on my city web site to see if anybody would like to take over the membership for a reduced price for what I paid. The membership started
in November of 2014. It is now 5÷11÷15. I have had no one interested in this membership after several months of it being offered. I called Jake back today and told him I would except the $ 600.00 as this has been exhausting and I am not well. He stated that I have no membership. That when I said I wanted it canceled and a refund he completely canceled the membership. So he took my money and the membership.
This is the most unprofessional place of business. When a person has a note from a dr and it is a medical reason that is permanent you can not just steal their money.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE.

Vanessa and Josh were a couple of my first connections in CrossFit years ago and have continued to be an influence on my training. They run a top notch facility with loads of the best Rogue gear, Vanessa is a regionals caliber athlete who knows what it takes to train and compete at the highest level. Josh can motivate and coach on a world class level.
If you want to experience CrossFit at facility with top tier coaching, equipment and the community everyone looks for at a good box then this is your place.

Love this gym! everyone is incredibly inspiring and encouraging! Vanessa is seriously the nicest most genuine trainer and honestly I look up to her so much! she is my motivation to keep going! if you havent already GO CHECK THIS PLACE OUT ASAP! Jake and Danielle are seriously awesome! xoxoxo

This was my first experience with Crossfit and while the coaching here was good (although to be honest I have nothing to compare it to, so who knows…) their business practices are lacking in the customer service department, in a very big way. One of their biggest selling points is their atmosphere and community aspect, and I even enrolled under the «Everybody Loves Everybody» plan which is $ 159/​month. This already felt steep, when most of my CF experienced friends reported their boxes charged anywhere from $ 90-​$ 120. I decided to try it anyway, given the proximity to my house and their assurance that they’re not like other gyms and their priority is your health. It started off great, Vanessa was friendly and encouraging. I finished the beginner’s program and started working out with everyone else.
Unfortunately due to extenuating circumstances, I was unable to make it anymore around mid-​June. Vanessa touched base since I had missed a couple of weeks. I let her know I had stuff going on and that was it. I got a new debit card in July so the automatic billing failed and I got a couple of calls from Jake asking me to call back and sort it out. I returned his call after the July 4^th weekend and left a voicemail stating I would not be returning because my work situation made it impossible to make it to any classes. I never heard back and thought that was it.
Cut to today, I notice I got billed for September so I call Jake immediately, and he explains that I need to email them 30 days in advance to discontinue membership. Apparently this is in my membership agreement and is clearly explained when you sign up (not really). At this point we discover that I got billed for July, August, and September. That’s $ 477 for a gym that I am not attending and haven’t been to since mid June. I ask Jake if there’s anything we can do about it, I mean c’mon that’s a lot of money for a whole lot of nothing. He says the best he can do is make sure I don’t get billed for October, even though I’m less than 30 days away from my next billing date. Jeez, thanks a lot! Keep in mind, I have not heard from these guys since early July… and even then it wasn’t to say «Hey, where ya been?» but to report a billing issue. What a sense of community. I guess there really is «no quitting» here…
I will not be returning here and I highly suggest you shop around. The price here is ridiculous and at the end of the day they don’t really care about you, they are just making money.

I have been to many gyms, however I have never been to a gym like this. The coaches are wonderful!!! They watch over you and make sure you are correctly performing each movement. If I need coaching in anything from healthily eating, to improving my workouts, I can rely on my coaches. I have nothing but positive thoughts and beliefs with this gym. I walk in and out with a smile. I absolutely love attending CrossFit High Road Classes. I am getting Stronger, and healthier everyday. Thank you!!! I am absolutely grateful of joining and watching Crossfit Events. Best service around, also when I need to go on vacation. I am prepped and ready. Please if you are considering and looking into a Crossfit program or All Around Gym, please stop by say hello, and try a class out. You will enjoy, I promise!!!

I had been very intimidated to try Crossfit for a long. However, I knew Josh and Vanessa from personal training and I trusted both of them. I can say without a doubt this has been one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in a gym. Josh, Jake and Vanessa are incredible coaches because they set an amazing vibe, they are extremely knowledgeable and they CARE about every single person that walks in their gym.
They always have a positive attitude, they are tough when you need it and they are super funny which helps in making sure that everyone is having fun. I especially like that I have seen all of them take the time to explain any and all movements if anyone has any questions. They stress the importance of proper technique every single class which just goes to show that they have everyones best interest at heart. I also have a previous injury and they have been nothing but patient with me about it. If there is ever a movement I can’t do or feel uncomfortable doing they give me alternatives so that I can still participate.
Recently, they’ve also added on a nutrition program, a barbell club and have brought in a physical therapist! I really feel like I have a million resources at my fingertips. I definitely recommend CFHR to anyone and everyone who is considering Crossfit. You will not be disappointed!

This place is great. We were visiting some friends in the area and decided to drop in a class here; the coaches are very friendly and easy going and the facility is clean and nice.
The coaches definitely know what they’re doing, so their instructions are sound and beneficial. They are very funny and make you feel welcome as soon as you walk in the door.
This place is great! Nothing but great things from this gym.

Great coaching and awesome facilities!
Dropped in while traveling and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Coaches made sure to be conscious of my movements since I was nursing an injured wrist.
Received some great tips and hope to be able to come back again soon!

I have been coming to Crossfit High Road for a little over 3 weeks now and I’m so happy that I found this place. I will admit I was very intimidated to try crossfit, but from the moment I walked through those doors the coaches made me feel at ease. You can truly tell that the coaches, Jake, Josh and Vanessa, care about every one of the members here. Their first priority is to make sure everyone is using proper form so no one gets injured. They have been extremely patient with me in teaching me the proper movements for each exercise we do.
Every class I get introduced to the members I haven’t met yet, and everyone has been so nice and welcoming. I’ve honestly never been in any gym where the environment is so encouraging and motivating. I’ve done more things here in the last three weeks than I ever thought I could do. There have been times where I’ve looked at the work out of the day and kind of laughed to myself thinking «there’s no way I can do that», but every time they’ve helped me push through it and I walk out feeling accomplished. People that I just met that day in class have cheered me on, so I’ve never felt embarrassed or ashamed if I’m the last one finishing up the exercise.
I highly recommend trying out Crossfit High Road. It has been a great experience for me and I look forward to seeing all the progress that I will continue to make here.

I currently go to a different crossfit gym near my work for convenience’s sake. I like that gym, but I’ve also tried CrossFit High Road, and I’m totally blown away. The level of service, and quality of instruction at Crossfit High Road far surpasses any gym I’ve been to, including the crossfit gym I attend near my work. After having a chance to get to know the coaches, and workout at CrossFit High Road, I believe CrossFit Highroad is a step above the rest.
Consider the following observations and decide for yourself:
1. There are two sometimes three coaches on the floor during each workout. So I know that someone is supervising what I am doing and is ready to correct any flawed movements or improper techniques.
2. While I do not think the coaches at CrossFit High Road like their jobs any more than other crossfit coaches, Jake, Josh, and Vanessa appear to be more invested in those who enter through their doors than the average crossfit coach.
3. The coaches at CrossFit High Road do not merely give you verbal cues to correct improper movements, but spend one-​on-​one time with you and give you concrete practical tips on how to correct the movement, lift property, or increase mobility to reduce the risk of injury.
4. The atmosphere at Crossfit High Road enkindles a spirit of fervor and renewed commitment to physical excellence.
5. There appears to be a deep sense of camaraderie between the members of CrossFit High Road. Being there even for only a few weeks one gets a sense that one member’s achievement is the achievement of all, and is celebrated by all.

Josh, Vanessa, and Jake are the best Crossfit coaches out there. They all come from personal training backgrounds, so they know exactly how to help each individual perform at their potential. They love every body that goes into their gym and they will do anything they can to help them become not only better athletes, but better people. There is no place I would rather go to do Crossfit of Olympic lifting!

I love crossfit high road!
they have the most amazing coaches! josh and vanessa are so great! they are so motivating and the community at the gym is welcoming!
I suggest this gym for anyone interested in crossfit!

Josh, Jake, and Vanessa really know a lot about fitness. The new location opens up within a week and my girlfriend and I can’t wait to check it out!

Finding a good gym, and good coaches with a good environment is hard to do. I came to crossfit highroads nervous about what to expect after visiting other crossfit gyms. Not only did the coaches make me feel welcome, but so did all the members. After the first class I was immediately hooked.
I am a personal trainer myself and it is hard to find people that actually care about you and your goals. Josh, Vanessa and
Jake care so much about each individual, and take the time to help each person improve, they motivate you the minute you walk through those doors. Compared to other gyms, it is not just about how much weight you can lift, they actually take the time to correct your form and make sure it’s perfect. The best coaches push you to believe in yourself when you don’t, and that’s exactly what these three coaches do!
I have worked out all my life, but I have never felt the way I do since I joined this crossfit gym. Not only have I lost weight and toned up and gained flexibility, I have become stronger physically and mentally. I learned how to challenge and push myself to limits I never thought possible. This gym is not only a place to get a good workout and have fun, but you feel like you have become part of a family full of people that truly care! Trust me, you don’t want to miss out!

It’s the highlight of my day to come in and see the coaches and other members at Crossfit High Road! Josh, Vanessa and Jake make the experience of working out here not only challenging, but rewarding. The coaches truly care about everyone and they push us because they can see everyones potential!
At a lot of other CrossFit gyms members are overlooked, and they aren’t given the attention they need to perform certain exercises safely. Here, that is not the case at all… the coaches pay close attention to everyone and make it a priority to ensure people are being safe, while still getting a good workout. They modify workouts constantly according to peoples needs (especially if you have an injury) which shows they care more about your well being than the numbers or «score».
I think it’s most important to emphasize how fun it is! Everyone works hard and has a
Great time, and there’s no pressure! It’s a comfortable environment full of friendly people and that is why members come back day after day.

I’ve been into Crossfit for years and have been to several gyms in different cities, I must say CrossFit High Road is hands down one of the most well coached gyms with a great environment to be in.
CrossFit High Road is not the typical CrossFit gym. The coaches are there for you and your safety. They care. I’ve been to CrossFit «boxes» that have 20 plus people in class and the classes form is out of whack, people look like they are about to go down from too heavy of weight being used and no one says anything. Not here. Josh, Vanessa and Jake care and want you to get better day in and day out by proper form, technique and the right attitude.
I suggest you give CrossFit High Road a shot if you want improve your self esteem, lose weight, become stronger and of course have fun while you’re there.

I’ve been doing CrossFit for 3+ years now, so I feel like I have some experience in knowing what good coaching looks like. I am by no means an «elite athlete.» In fact, I just do CrossFit because I love to throw weight around and get my butt kicked.
We all know that CrossFit has had a bad rap for injuries. I believe preventing injuries has everything to do with coaching. Jake, Vanessa, and Josh couldn’t be more involved in each workout. They diligently watch your form and give pointers about how to get better. They will not allow you to do anything to hurt yourself, nor will they let you workout if you are hurt. They will also push you to be a better individual. Just when you think you can’t go any further, they challenge you to push yourself further. They are definitely the three best coaches I’ve ever worked with.
Crossfit High Road/​There Is No Quit is a rad environment. Not only do the coaches rule, but the athletes are super supportive as well. Everyone wants everyone to do better.
If you want supportive and friendly people to work out with and coaches who are knowledgeable and good at what they do, CrossFit High Road is the place you want to be.

Let me preface this review by saying that I’ve been to quite a few –and that might even be an understatement — Crossfit gyms within and outside of California. I’ve been fortunate enough to have experienced varied styles of programming, coaching, and people, from garage gyms to huge warehouses full of barbells.
To an extent, some will say that Crossfit gyms are built the same, fashioned out of a now cookie-​cutter industry. Without spending ample time in each one, it’s difficult to differentiate one «box» from the next. But, the one thing that will always remain transparent regardless of all other factors is how much the coaches care for you –their members. By that I mean your health, safety and progression towards your personal goal (s).
At Crossfit High Road, the focus isn’t money, retaining a large member roster or creating a handful of Crossfit elites. This is about you, what your goals are and how they will help you get there. There is so much knowledge between Jake, Vanessa and Josh that it would be an injustice not to share with those looking to make positive changes in their lives.
To Jake, Vanessa and Josh, your success is theirs as well. They will be as committed to you as you are to bettering yourself.
They’re not robotic. They will effectively curtail their coaching to how you learn best, what’s best suited for you to get the most out of that hour with them.
Their programming is tough, but not unreasonable. It will kick your ass but you will thank them for it daily, even on your off days. They’ll have you working so hard, you would have earned that fatty ass cupcake by the end of the week.
