I should have written this years ago but now that I've moved, I'd be remiss if I did not write how this gym is the absolute best gym in the Pierce County area. It has everything you'd want. CrossFit? check. Weightlifting? check. Open gym? check. Yoga? check. BJJ space? check. 24/7 access? check. In addition to the expectations from a gym, the athlete community alone is worth the membership. Everyone is aware we're all on our own fitness journey, and they cheer you on to succeed in it. No stress, no intimidation just pure motivation to achieve your goal. The staff are also low key cool and knowledgeable wanting you to do your best but also willing to listen to suggestions or concerns you may have about your workout. Go check it out for a day and I'll guarantee you'll love it. I'll give you your money back on that first visit if you don't (Its free.) Less

A Community of Strength and Giving Joining University Place Crossfit has been an incredible journey for me, especially as a woman in my 60s. It's not just a gym, it's a community that's deeply invested in the health and wellbeing of each member and the larger community. What makes this gym stand out is its dedication to fostering a supportive environment for all ages and fitness levels. This December, the gym celebrates its 6th anniversary, and it's inspiring to see the loyalty of members who have been there since the beginning. It's a testament to the positive and welcoming atmosphere that's been cultivated here. The gym's community spirit shines through initiatives like the UPCF Giving Tree, where members come together to support a local school classroom, making the holiday season brighter for teens in need. It's actions like these that I love the most, creating a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose, extending the impact of the gym beyond its members. As I have been learning Olympic lifting, I love the focus on the strength cycle which focuses each of us on the finer aspects of Olympic lifting. As one of many beginners at university place CrossFit, this caters to a range of abilities and ensures that everyone can participate and improve at their own pace. I'm grateful to be a part of this amazing group and look forward to many more years of fitness and community engagement. Thank you University Place Crossfit. Less

I switched to this gym earlier this year because my previous gym was shifting to more of a weightlifting emphasis, and I was interested in continuing to pursue CrossFit type functional training. They have been so accommodating! I do the open gym option and then I get the Mayhem training on top of it. But the classes I've attended are fantastic, with great, friendly coaches, wonderful facilities, and prompt responses to any email I send to them about questions that I have. I love this place! Additionally, they gave me immediate 24/7 access to the gym, whereas my previous gym would not, even after almost 10 years there! Less

The classes are easy to follow and all the coaches are amazing at making sure you’re not left behind and know exactly what you’re doing. I never know what I’m doing at the gym, typically I only ran on the treadmill— weightlifting and strength training is new territory, but these guys make it super easy and fun!

The kids are able to use the RevUp program and we are able to enjoy the CrossFit classes and use the open gym. Trying to find a community I’m glad I finally had the courage to check out the place. It’s nice they have a free drop in class where there is no pressure and they give you a tour of the place. Immediately after joining, they offered free friends and family where a friend was able to enjoy what the gym has to offer. This is definitely one of the few gyms where you are not only joining for the gym but the community. Looking forward to growing into this community. Less

The staff who are knowledgeable, caring, and encouraging. During our workout they stay on alert for our safety and help us with our form. They are never judgmental, and you can go at your own pace. 3. It works! I belong to Club 55, the class for "more mature" members, and I'm in better shape than I was 20 years ago. The focus of strength, flexibility and balance is perfect. And these things are important to a long happy life. 4. The rates are reasonable and the scheduling of classes (if that's what you sign up for) is easy on the app. You can also log your workout results. 5. There are more resources available that I haven't tried, so look on the website for all the other offerings. 6. The members are family! Through Club 55, I have gained a wonderful group of friends who see each other through times of rejoicing and hard times as well. We love each other so much we get together socially outside of the gym! The only challenge I see for UPFC is needing more space, they are growing so wonderfully! Thank you, John & Ashley, for providing such an awesome environment that has helped me in so many ways. Less

I used to look for any excuse not to go to the gym. No more! I look forward to going, pushing myself and cheering on my fellow members as they work towards their fitness goals too.

You’re never going to have what you wanna have only doing what you want to do. -pstr Kevin Gerald Written by a food loving, recently inactive, mom of two: A friend invited me to take a class about 3 months ago and I was terrified 🤪. I needed a fitness change though and was looking to make new friends in the area. If either of these interest you, then the 9:15 class is exactly what you’re looking for! This group has a high percentage of moms but consists of both men and women of all ages and fitness levels. Bonus: you can bring your kids here! The first week was tough- as in I nearly threw up every day- but the consistent and motivating community kept me coming back for more. Coaches Jon, Ashleigh and Dave are consistently there to teach and guide you. They will tell you everything you need to know about the workouts (it does take time to learn and remember!), they push you when they know you are ready/capable, have scaling options when needed, and remind you to take it easy when necessary. Most importantly, they monitor and insist on proper form and safety. As a mom of two I was intimidated by the whole idea of CrossFit and I can tell you that at UPCrossfit, you won’t find recklessness. Relatable: the coaches are also parents who understand the life struggles, and joys, of having kids 🙌🏼. If you are considering taking a class, I’d highly recommend it. There are many options available/ listed on their website, and the first class is free, so you have nothing to lose. If you can, come to the 9:15 class and if I’m there I’ll say hello! Less
