This place is awesome. It has such a supportive vibe (members and coaches) and it is so professionally run. I’m finally making some real strength gains after trying so many other things. Would highly recommend checking it out no matter where you’re at in your fitness journey!
Dropped in for a workout while in Madison. Marlow and everyone were extremely welcoming. Very nice facility, great equipment, excellent workout. Highly recommend.
5 star equipment and 5 star people, loved it 💪
It’s been an awesome experience! As a newcomer, There are so many other aspects to CrossFit that I’d never realized until I started my journey! Definitely the strongest that I’ve ever been and I have made some pretty awesome gym buddies:) . The coaches are amazing, and so is the community.
I highly recommend the Fortify gym! CrossFit seemed very intimidating at first but the instructors really guide you through everything so it’s not so scary. Time actually flies and you will not be bored. Don’t overthink things….just go! Move your body and you will feel great!

Great experience just stopping in with a friend to explore. Workout killed, but so fun and supportive!
At the time of joining this gym I had never previously lifted heavy weights. At first, I found walking into class to be intimidating. However, the amazing coaching and supportive community gives you the confidence to try something difficult.

At the time of joining this gym I had never previously lifted heavy weights. At first, I found walking into class to be intimidating. However, the amazing coaching and supportive community gives you the confidence to try something difficult. I love the accountability aspect of the class structure and the confidence in knowing you can do the hard stuff. The most surprising part has been the physical transformation. Turns out, muscles happen fast with the right moves, coaching and showing up. Thanks team Fortify! You all are the best. Less

💪Fantastic CrossFit gym and community! So happy I found Fortify when we moved to Madison, everyone is there to better themselves and super supportive. Coaches and facility/equipment are great as well. Tons of class times too which is a huge plus. 🏋️

I never planned on joining a CrossFit gym. I thought it was too hard core for me. I thought the trainers would be screaming in my face things like "Come on . . push harder!" I'm extremely pleased to report that it's nothing like that at Fortify. The trainers go through the workouts at the beginning of class and we warm up together.

I never planned on joining a CrossFit gym. I thought it was too hard core for me. I thought the trainers would be screaming in my face things like "Come on . . push harder!" I'm extremely pleased to report that it's nothing like that at Fortify. The trainers go through the workouts at the beginning of class and we warm up together. After that, it's truly self paced and you choose the weights that are right for you. The trainers make sure your form is correct, and are only encouraging and never yelling in your face! So if you have the misconception about CrossFit like I did, please give it a try. I'm so glad I joined a couple of months ago. I look forward to going, enjoy the people there and my body is feeling so much stronger and healthier. Less
Welcoming community, excellent coaches, challenging and fun workouts! It’s a great way to start my day every day!
You will have a blast and get stronger than you ever thought possible. The coaches meet you where you are in your fitness journey and then motivate you to surpass your goals.
The workouts are intense but not overwhelming. Coaches give good advice on form and technique. Everyone is really supportive regardless of what level they're at
I’m a huge fan of Marlow and the other trainers at Fortify. Been going 2x a week for almost a year. Definitely feel stronger, have more energy, playing better tennis and best of all, arthritis pain in hip and knees substantially improved. All that —-plus it’s been fun. Looking forward to year 2
My happy place! The community is supportive, encouraging, and welcoming. No other place I’d rather be!
Great coaches, workouts and camaraderie.
Great people and culture!
Exceptional CrossFit gym! The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, creating a motivating atmosphere. Varied and challenging workouts keep things interesting, and the sense of community among members is truly uplifting. Top-notch facility for anyone seeking a well-rounded fitness experience.
Fortunate to be a part of this community. Programming for ALL ages and abilities. Grateful to all the coaches and for the countless friendships I've made.
I have been at Fortify for almost two months now. I absolutely love this gym. I am new to CrossFit and I am learning most of the exercises for the first time. The coaches are so helpful. They make sure everyone is learning all the exercises and proper form. I highly recommend this gym for new or experienced people. Keep up the amazing work team Fortify!
Absolutely love it! Great people, community and coaches.
Great gym and great people!
I joined Fortify because I was looking for a community of awesome people to workout with and that is exactly what I got! The workouts are always a good challenge and there are modifications if I’m not yet able to do a move. Everyone is so nice and welcoming and there to build each other up. I feel so lucky to have found Fortify!
Couldn't ask any more of the coaches! No matter where you are in your fitness journey they are they to help you meet your goals! Every class is full of people all striving for improving themselves and encouraging others!
The coaches at Fortify are knowledgeable and professional. The community at Fortify is so kind and welcoming. I’m so glad this gym is so close to home!
A great place to go and work out . People there are happy and willing to help and guide you for a safe and healthy lifestyle.
Recently attended Coach Hicks' Rowing clinic. I may not have mastered the art, but I had a lot of fun and gathered some great pointers. I will be using Marlow's tips and tricks for both short and longer rows.
Great community feeling!
Owner/Head coach is not committed to overall safety of members resulting in injuries. He also does not invest time in members healing from injuries to return safely to the gym. He ignores poor form, does not provide adequate scaling options, and does not assist members to prevent further injuries requiring members to seek assistance outside of the gym.
