The best CrossFit gym in town, hands down. I take the AM classes and love the coaches. Love the support from the other members. Everyone cheers each other on. Love having the open gym hours in the middle of the day. The gym floor and the shower area are always clean, which is NOT something you see at other facilities.

I dropped in here 5 times within a week. My Airbnb was halfway between two CrossFit gyms, and I’m so glad I picked this one! The gym is well outfitted, and the athletes and coaches were all very welcoming. Behind the gym is a mixed use path which made for a pleasant commute by bike. The gym is open all day and I was able to do class and stay for accessory work. I’m pretty sure they use the official CrossFit Affiliate programming which isn’t my favorite, but the vibe here was great. I would love to come back next time I visit!

I usually don’t write reviews because I feel most products and services are self-explanatory. But if this helps then here it goes; i’ve been interested in joining or doing CrossFit for a while before I actually signed up. I consider the price and that kept me away. Big mistake! Between the programming and the community it’s worth every cent. Yes, you can do most of the workouts at home with the proper equipment. But the intensity you get from the classes and the coaches are world class.

I started working out at real fitness sarasota for a few months now and I couldn’t be happier with my results. It doesn’t feel like a gym but more like a community. All the trainers are always encouraging you to be the best you can be while making sure you have the best form possible. It is like having a personal trainer at a fraction of the cost. All the Gym members are truly encouraging and are all part of a family. I have learned as much from the trainers as I’ve learned from other gym goers. I started seeing results a few weeks after starting, not only in my strength and physic but also in my energy and overall well-being. I strongly recommend this gym and couldn’t be happier with my choice of joining their family!!!

The programming is top notch and I’ve made more progress in 18 months full time at RFS than in 3 years of CrossFit at other boxes. Whether you’ve never picked up a barbell before or you’re a seasoned CrossFitter; RFS is a place for you to get fit (or fitter) and hang out with some great people who will become a big part of your life!
