Whether you're into CrossFit, weightlifting, strength training, or any other modality, EVSC is the best facility to meet your fitness goals.

We lived out of state for a couple of years and returned in August. I sent several emails and phone calls to different gyms in the area, and EVSC was the only one that got back to me. And, I am so glad they did! Solid community here, extremely knowledgeable coaches.

Best gym in the valley. Programming and coaches are top notch.

East Valley has the absolute best coaching you can find. Not only is this the most personalized programming I have gotten from a trainer, East Valley also has the most welcoming gym community! You will feel right at home, and it will become your favorite part of the when you're here!

The place is incredible, great equipment great coaching. Love that place.

Fantastic gym to start or continue your fitness journey! Welcoming atmosphere, never too crowded, clean facility, and well-maintained equipment. I’ve been training with Sam and his programming has been game-changing for me (helping me hit triathlon PRs, gain muscle, and stay injury-free).

Best gym in the city! Great atmosphere and even better equipment! Must stop for anyone.

Great gym! super nice equipment, everything you could ask for. Everyone is really friendly and there to work hard. Personal training from Sam is the best!

August and his crew are absolutely amazing. I have been personal training with Sam since May and have truly enjoyed every session. The programming and environment is very welcoming to all fitness levels. This gym offers great machines as well as barbell to fit every type of workout. I have learned so much while training here!

East Valley Strength and Conditioning is awesome!!! Recently moved to the area and EVSC is fantastic! Great facility, tons of equipment for any type of workout! Amazing gym community and atmosphere!!

Just wanted to thank August Schmidt and his gym East Valley Strength for the work they do. 60 days ago, the powers that be decided the best trainer at the gym would get me into better shape, Samuel Brent Leehe is a witchdoctor, I firmly believe he made a deal with the prince of darkness to inspire me to work hard and get results, when they say hire a professional this is the guy you need, and I cant thank him enough for taking me from where I was and on the right path. Samuel Brent Leehe it was an honor to be in such good hands. I believe that picking up chicks is the only lift I can do better than you. My sister Becky Vasey, I cant begin to express how much your attention and care for me has done for my body and soul, I love you sis. 60 days and 20 private training sessions, saw me go from 252pounds to 217pounds as of today. Changing your habits and being healthier is work but it is worth it, The Vital H the company my sister owns was on top of my IVs and supplements and hydration, Samuel Brent Leehe also coached me on nutrition, and August Schmidt is the man that keeps East Valley Strength the top gym in the industry, the culture he created is welcoming and encouraging. It was not the misery people fear, all I had to do was what Samuel Brent Leehe told me to do, and he wont let his clients fail. If you do the work you get results, cant thank you guys enough. Less

East Valley Strength & Conditioning is a very nice gym! The WOD was challenging & fun. August was very professional, welcoming & kind. I felt very much at home during my visit. I look forward to returning to this gym in the near future.

The community is awesome at east valley! Everyone on show up, works hard and knows each other!!

Great programming and better people. Been coming for about a year now and have made consistent improvement following the Power Building program.

East Valley is a great gym with incredible staff. Sam is my trainer and has patience beyond belief. He has helped me progress tremendously. Gym also has a great variety of equipment for Crossfit, weightlifting, powerlifting, strongman and all the accessories. Highly recommend.

I’ve been coming to EVSC for a little over a year. I’m an Olympic weightlifter and their equipment is top notch! Everything I need for lifts and lots of different types of accessories. The staff are all very friendly and motivating! Grateful for the environment and the community here!

Absolute best gym in the valley! Community and environment are second to none. Coaching is on another level. More than enough room and equipment to do anything from general workouts to a strongman to CrossFit. Couldn’t be happier with EVSC!

Everyone here is so welcoming! The coaches are extremely knowledgeable. They truly take the time to help you achieve your fitness goals!

All the reviews here are extremely accurate, especially Tien’s review. My favorite days to come to EVSC are the leg days. This gym is great and the people are better. Chris and August are amazing coaches. I’ve met really awesome people like Ruben and Tien. 10/10 gym.

This is a great gym for CrossFit, weightlifting, conditioning, and community! Everyone is welcoming and the coaches are motivating for everyone no matter what your experience is. The free weights and weightlifting machines are great for accessory work and I love that I can come in anytime the gym is open to get some work in. The price is great as well for what’s available to everyone.

This is a great gym! Awesome workouts, coaches and a very friendly environment!

I’m an out of town drop in , Sam did a great job coaching a tuff workout for my wife and I made us feel like we were in our home gym. I would highly recommend this gym !

EVSC is an awesome gym and community. Whatever your fitness goals, this gym provides programming for all levels. I've been able to train through several pregnancies & post-partums successfully at EVSC - the trainers are very knowledgeable and encouraging. The community is wonderful, and the 5:30am crew keeps you wanting to come back. Can't recommend East Valley enough!!

Excellent gym! Not JUST a Crossfit gym. They have Crossfit, a Strength Training program, a hybrid program and an Olympic lifting program. The owner and coaches are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Members range from competitors, to the "average joe" to beginner's. I'm a new member and highly recommend!

I dropped in while in Scottsdale for a few days. Great facility with very friendly staff and members. Plenty of specialty bars and equipment too use which made it easy to stay on track with training while I was traveling. I'll definitely drop in again the next time I'm in the area. Many thanks to August and the team!

In fact, I'm so impressed I signed up for a 20 session package on the spot given the coaching I received from August! Read his bio on the site!! It is one thing to have all the credentials and education, which he does, and it is quite another to be able to effectively translate all that experience and knowledge that he possess to effectively teach the fundamentals of weightlifting in way that allows me to put it in to practice in real time. August is a gifted weightlifting and Crossfit coach, and the facility is awesome too. The energy here is POSITIVE and encouraging!! This energy and vibe comes from August since he is the owner and sets the tone of the whole facility. Try a session, check it out, and see for yourself. Less

Great gym, lots of different classes offered. Outstanding coaches.

EVSC is an awesome gym for all levels of experience. I’ve worked with Sam for about 5 years now, and he has completely transformed the type of competitor I’ve become. From a mere 108-185 pounds, he has pushed me to my limit and been a huge part of my success in the sport of hockey.

Love this gym and the community that has been built around it! The trainers are awesome and I was able to train through pregnancy and postpartum with the help of the trainers there. Programming is top notch-you won’t find a better strength and conditioning gym in the East Valley.

Hands down the best gym for strength and general fitness. No frills, except the mirror in front the dumbbells, thats lit. If you want to get stronger, faster, better, stop on by.

Owner & Staff are world class. You cannot go wrong choosing East Valley Strength and Conditioning as your training destination.

Had the pleasure of training here in my week in Arizona. Gym is a vibe with some amazing athletes and gym etiquette was so on point. If you appreciate a good set up/great equipment for weightlifting and some old school refurbished machines from nautilus you’ll love it here. August was most accomodating and was welcomed each and every visit 👌 top bloke

August has made a great environment where you can feel comfortable and grow as an athlete or become one as I did ! Have meet people that I will be friends with for life. Highly recommend East Valley.

I’ve been a member for 9 years. This is a great place! A community of encouraging people, great coaches and a caring owner. I’m 70 years old and I believe investing in my health has been the best investment I’ve ever made. Simply a great place!

August is the best! He has an incredible collection of weightlifting equipment that is worth the drive to come see. Best bodybuilding lift of my life!

EVSC has been my gym home for almost 9 years. August has created a place where all fitness levels feel comfortable and confident. The trainers are top notch and take the time to help each individual during, before and after classes. The passion for excellence from owner/trainer/members has been a key factor for staying so long.

East valley CrossFit is definitely the best CrossFit gym in the valley . August, Sam, Chris and Andrew are all amazing coaches. If you are thinking about trying a CrossFit class, East Valley CrossFit is the place to go.

After trying all of the other local gyms I was excited to join East Valley and after a year now there's no question I made the right decision. Great coaches, a variety of programs to meet everyone's goals, and top notch equipment.

Absolutely love this gym!

Best coaches in the Valley!!

From the day I walked into East Valley as a stranger, I was immediately welcomed with open arms into an incredibly supportive, caring, motivating, and encouraging community. Before I walked into the doors at east valley I was newly employed, fresh out of rehab and off the streets as a drug addict.

From the day I walked into East Valley as a stranger, I was immediately welcomed with open arms into an incredibly supportive, caring, motivating, and encouraging community. Before I walked into the doors at east valley I was newly employed, fresh out of rehab and off the streets as a drug addict. Thanks to Coach August, Sam, Matt, and Chris I have since found a passion for competitive powerlifting. Words cannot express the valuable lessons I have learned from the coaching staff and their programming. I know it is the best place for anyone trying to reach a goal, no matter how far out of the picture it may seem. The equipment there alone allows you to train at a higher level than anyone else, and not to mention the staff that guides you every step of the way. They also have resources for anything from tissue work to IVs! Thank you East Valley. Less

Love this gym! Excellent workouts, equipment, staff, and people. This place really feels like a community. Everyone is so supportive and really cares about making sure you are working out safely and effectively. Highly recommend EVSC!

Been going here for 8+ years. The people are friendly and keep me motivated. August, the owner, has structured his programs to provide exceptional value to his clients. This is where you want to be if you want to get stronger or lose weight or a bit of both.

EVSC is AMAZING. The staff is VERY friendly and welcoming, they encourage you to be the best version if yourself. I’m glad I found a gym that is perfect for me.

I love this place. August, Sam, and Chris all changed my life and are great trainers.

Been coming to East Valley for almost 10 years now and it’s more than just a gym. It’s a community. Lots of different styles of training to accommodate anyone.

Health and Fitness is a lifestyle CHOICE. As a 65 year old it is intimidating to step into a gym where people actually WORK OUT.

Health and Fitness is a lifestyle CHOICE. As a 65 year old it is intimidating to step into a gym where people actually WORK OUT. I’ve signed up at other gyms previously but I eventually stopped going. People on their phones on the treadmill and bikes not really a motivator. THEN I signed up at EAST VALLEY STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING. From my first work out among serious health and fitness conscious folks I heard ENCOURAGEMENT. No, I can’t do what the young people do. But, they would often offer words that made me want to be fit. You see, a lot of what is special about EVSC is (yes they have incredible free weights, machines, rig, and a variety of workout stations) but the reason I’ve been here for 5 years loyally is that this gym’s owner (a real person on site not a corporation) Cares about your health goals. Me? I just wanted to keep moving when I started. What happened was…. I was CHALLENGED. I was challenged by my own self. Seeing every age, gender, and ability I wanted to be better. That is what is special about EVSC. This gym community is one of support and encouragement regardless of ability. People who are tired of saying I went to the gym like I used to NOW SAY I WORKED OUT AND IM GLAD I WENT. This gym community has helped me live a fuller life. I am more mobile and believe it or not HAVE A CLEARER MINDSET as to what is important in my life; my friends and family and now, with a new mindset I am ENCOURAGED to be the best human I can be.

The best CrossFit gym you can find. You are welcomed as soon as you step in. No clicks!! Any skill is welcomed. Trainers are the best in the business. August,Sam, Chris, Andrew!!! They will lead you and help you reach you me goals. It’s not a gym. It’s a place to get fit while you hang out with the best people that want the best for you.

Great gym and great people!

Coach August and Coach Sam are a perfect example of why the corporate gym will never be as good as the independent small gym owner. This is a gym for people who love training.

I love this place. I’ve been a member/dropped in to so many crossfit (and strength and conditioning) gyms.

I love this place. I’ve been a member/dropped in to so many crossfit (and strength and conditioning) gyms. When I came here for a comp last year, I knew it was where I needed to be despite it being farther away for me than other crossfit gyms. August (gym owner and coach) is immensely knowledgeable in so many facets of fitness and has a knack for transferring that knowledge to members in an incredibly effective and motivating way. He hires and keeps the highest quality coaching staff (no constant turnover at this place). I had struggled with butterfly pull-ups for months, then worked with Coach Sam in a single one-on-one session and it clicked and I was able to start stringing them together. The staff is full of amazing coaches who genuinely care about members and put so much into making the gym a great place to be. Less

Great gym! Tons of equipment and programming, great coaches and a friendly, unintimidating environment. They keep it real and fun!

This has been a great gym and community for for me since 2018. They offer great coaching for all level of athletes from fitness and wellness up to competitive. Coaches also offer specific programing to help you achieve your goals.

Highly experienced coaches, personalized training best in the business. Recommend EVSC for anyone serious about physical well being.

This is an amazing gym! They have a ton of programming options and personal training. The coaches are top level as well. This gym is perfect for any fitness level.

EVSC and the owner and staff and trainers are the very best. I’ve been going for nearly 3 years. I feel part of the family and my daughter trains with Sam for club volleyball. I look forward to working out and training and learning from others. Thx EVSC

EVSC is an awesome gym! The coaches are fantastic to work with - very knowledgeable. They greet you by name when you walk in the door. I’m glad I chose to come to this gym!

If you’re looking for a new gym or new to the area I highly recommend giving EVSC a shot. After my first workout I knew I made the right choice and never looked back. EVSC has programs for all skill levels so check it out!

The BEST gym!!! I’ve been an RN for 26 yrs and EastValley Strength and Conditioning is my go to place for my fitness, my mental health & nutrition assistance. Some cool equipment, knowledgeable coaches and really chill community.

East Valley is an incredible place to train competitively. The gym meets you were you are at and helps set goal and reach them. Motivating coaches and exceptional community. It’s a place like no other.

I have been with East Valley for 10 years. They have best coaches and staff always ready to welcome anyone regardless we’re you are in your fitness journey!

In 2012 I weighed a soft 245 pounds and I ate a bagel with cream cheese to carboload before my very first CrossFit class. I had never done CrossFit or even touched a barbell. That first class altered my life significantly. What I found in that first gym was a welcoming group of weirdos who, over time, grew to be the people who I would consider some of my closest friends.

In 2012 I weighed a soft 245 pounds and I ate a bagel with cream cheese to carboload before my very first CrossFit class. I had never done CrossFit or even touched a barbell. That first class altered my life significantly. What I found in that first gym was a welcoming group of weirdos who, over time, grew to be the people who I would consider some of my closest friends. I've attended birthdays, weddings, funerals, and births with people I met at that gym. Most importantly, I kept training consistently for almost a decade and I kept going because of the people. CrossFit (or any sport) alone, I think, barely matters. But being part of a community is important. But then I moved, far away, during a pandemic and when I landed in Phoenix I bought a set of bumpers and a barbell and for many many hot desert months I trained alone in my garage. Then I met Chris and was welcomed into his strong(wo)man group at East Valley. I hadn't come into a new gym in many years and I had the same nervous energy as I did at my very first class in 2012. Maybe unsurprisingly I was welcomed with a similar warmth I'd experienced in my first day. I meet a lot of people who say "I wish I could be as strong as you but I just don't like going to the gym" and my wish for them is that they can find a community so that the question is never "do I want to workout today?", but "do I want to see my friends?" I suspect communities like this don't happen by accident. They're the result of years of work and effort by the community's leaders and stewards. If you're in the neighborhood we're here for you.

Long-term Review: East Valley Strength and Conditioning is more than a gym.

More so, EVSC has been an amazing community for me and my family to develop strength, enhance athleticism, work on nutrition, build discipline and healthy habits, etc. with people that are like family. This is a place where everyone is equal, whether you are a national champion power lifter or “just” a 50 year old mountain biker rehabbing injuries and getting stronger for the rest of your life. August is the best gym owner and Coach around. Less

This is a great gym for all ages it has competitive workouts to powerlifting workouts and workouts in between pretty much fits everybody’s needs with good coaching. The membership is friendly and fun People. Great atmosphere.

Best gym I have ever been in! The coaches are awesome! They are always willing to help with form and equipment questions. The programs are on point and effective. Some of the best old school and new school machines I have ever seen and some I haven’t. Over all great power lifting, CrossFit and conditioning gym!

Outstanding gym for people and athletes of all levels. The coaching staff is amazing, the programming is excellent and there is truly a group or program for any goal! From weightlifting to strongman, powerlifting to athletic performance and conditioning east valley is the best in the business.

East Valley is a top-notch facility in every regard. Great coaching. Great equipment. Great atmosphere.

Love this place and the people who work here. I get motivated watching people at the gym chase their fitness and strength goals.

Great coaches, abundant equipment, and friendly members. This gym is a great place to set goals and take care of yourself. August, the owner has everything you need, and if he doesn't...he knows a guy/gal that does.

Super good experience was a little intimidating at first but glad we stuck through! Chris is a great coach and very patient! Thank you guys!

Best group of people to workout with. Such an amazing and supportive community

Love this Crossfit! The Coaches are very awesome. Having machines is also a huge benefit if you're really looking to fully develop different muscle groups

Quality staff, great members, family friendly.

Check them out!

This gym is great! It is always very clean and all of the equipment is brand new, and everything always work. With the low monthly fee I don’t know why you wouldn’t go here!

Awesome box, great coaches and very friendly members!! Looking forward to coming back!

knowledgeable, experienced staff, friendly and challenging atmosphere, great athletic trainer on site ;)

One of the first crossfit gyms in the valley. Excellent programming and knowledge for maintaining longevity in fitness.

Great facility and coaches.. If you're close, this is where you want to train

Very welcoming community! We dropped in for a class while visiting from out of state. The coach August led us through a great workout and the other members were incredibly friendly. We had a great time and look forward to our next visit!

Don't let the friendly staff and welcoming environment fool you- the workouts here will kick your butt! Dedicated staff, clean equipment and gritty work ethic elevate this gym to elite levels. Highly recommendable.

Awesome staff ! A facility with the crew that truly loves what they do.

I have learned to push myself harder than I even knew was possible. Im always held accountable for my goals and taught every way to achieve them! I love training here.

Best crossfit gym I know of. Great staff. Great people. All very willing to help you out with any challenges you have!

Culture. Friendly, competitive, varied, consistent programming with options for every athletes ability and motivation along with the educated coaching staff to produce results. Best head coach in the city hands down.

Cool peeps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great box with a deep training staff. Its old school programming with great options for those that want to compete at the highest level of Crossfit.. Thanks for hosting this drop-in..

Marie's work was nothing short of outstanding. Her in depth understanding of sports medicine and athletic injuries is very impressive; her treatment techniques are well worth my time. I'm sold.

East Valley CrossFit is awesome. I had been weightlifting before I decided to do CrossFit. I researched around and this seems like the best CrossFit gym in the Tempe and Chandler area. I have had an wonderful experience here, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the place. It has definitely allowed me to increase my fitness level. I love how scalable their program is for different fitness levels.

High-end box with very knowledgable and talented coaches. Home to some of the best CrossFit competitors in the valley. Can't go wrong training here!
