This is such a great gym. The coaches are so nice! They are good at motivation and keeping the«feel» for the gym family/team oriented. It was my first time going to a cross fit class and the coach took his time to explain and show me everything. He also made sure I was doing my formation properly so I do not hurt myself. I am so glad I went to Optimum they defiantly are the place to be. Cannot wait to go back! You should give this place a try!

I have tired some crossfit gyms before and couldn’t get myself keep going. So far, I have been working out here for 1 month, and I really like it. The gym is very clean and the coach and owner are very nice, too. Coach Dan always watch all of us and makes sure we are ok. I feel that they really care about how I feel and how I do. Although, my body is tired after each work out, I do feel great and look forward to go again.

It’s my first time doing crossfit & everyone at Optimum has been so great since I started! I don’t have a set schedule yet but morning or night there have been great coaches. Coach Dan in the mornings really help perfect my squat by teaching me the proper stance as I had been doing squats wrong for SO long before. Now that I’ve got it down I can really feel results happening. Everyone’s really nice & it’s a great spot!

I haven’t done crossfit before and am 40 years old so I was thinking that it’s for the younger generation. Decided to give it a try since I wanted to do something besides hockey and jogging to get fit. Went in and was greeted by the staff and owner. They are super nice people and wanted to get to know me and why I wanted to get out of crossfit, so I appreciate the attention that they gave. I went to a crossfit box before and they just threw me into the fray and it was a tough experience, had no idea how to do the exercises and proper form and the trainers were unapproachable. The trainers here really go out of the way to help explain the techniques and form for the new people which is really great. They also helped out and made sure that my form was correct and pushed me ‘just enough’ so I’m not overdoing it. I’m starting to go 3x a week and once I get used to it, will go more I feel that Optimum is a great place for people of all experience levels. It’s clean and the trainer genuinely care about you and make sure your experience is great. Highly recommend Optimum. If your New Years resolution is to get fit, this is the place to go!

I’m really glad I came across this new Crossfit gym. I get my haircut next door and saw they were opening soon. A couple weeks later, I’m now going daily and really enjoying the workouts and the facilities. I travel a bit for work and have been to my fair share of gyms. Most are pretty bad, with old rusted equipment and poor coaching. Not Optimum. Definitely one of the best places I’ve been. While the nice new facilities and fresh equipment is nice, what I really like is the workout programming. Some places are too hard and obviously cater to the elite Crossfitters, others are too basic and focus on the out-of-shape average joe’s. Others, like Optimum are great at balancing both. I fall somewhere in the middle, and it’s been surprisingly difficult to find a place that I can consider the right fit… until now. I’ve seen them work with first-timers and I’ve seen them work with veterans. Both are handled extremely well so if you’re intimidated, don’t be! Come in and try a class. Dan in the mornings is fantastic, as is the rest of the staff. If you’re experienced with Crossfit, you owe it to yourself to check out this nice, fancy gym — it’s probably a great fit for you.
