Port Clinton CrossFit has truly changed my life over the last year.When I first started, I never could have imagined how much this gym—and the people in it—would become such an important part of my life. The constantly changing workouts challenge me in different ways every day, and the coaches push me to be better while always making sure I’m doing things safely and correctly.Today was especially meaningful. I had the honor of participating in “The Climb,” paying tribute to the men and women who were at Ground Zero 25 years ago. Getting to do this workout surrounded by a group of truly amazing people made the experience even more special. That is one of the things I love most about Port Clinton CrossFit: the members and coaches genuinely come together like a family. We encourage each other, celebrate each other’s accomplishments, and push each other through the tough moments.And the coaching? Second to none. I’ve had the pleasure of taking classes with every coach at this gym, and every one of them brings something special to the table. While I work more closely with a couple of coaches, I can honestly say I’ve learned something from all of them.Sarah has been an incredible part of my journey as my nutrition coach. She helped me dial in my nutrition, kept me accountable, and motivated me to keep working toward my fitness goals. Because of her guidance and encouragement, I’ve dropped four pant sizes and am now so close to my goal weight. I truly don’t know if I would be where I am today without her!And then there’s Sal—my 5 a.m. superhero! 😂 His humor, energy, and straight-to-the-point attitude help propel me through those early-morning workouts. I’ve also had the opportunity to participate in his snatch clinic, where he has helped me improve my posture and lifting technique while making sure I’m performing movements correctly. Safety is always a top priority, and that means a lot to me.Sal even brings my water bottle to me during workouts so I don’t stop pushing myself—because, in his words, he’s “the number one coach!” 😂 And honestly, he may have a point!Port Clinton CrossFit has given me so much more than workouts. It has given me confidence, accountability, strength, friendships, and a community that makes me want to keep showing up—even at 5 a.m. when I’m still not convinced I’m a morning person. 😂I’m incredibly grateful for this gym, these coaches, and all of the amazing people who have become part of my journey. I can’t wait to see what the next year brings—and what new PRs 2027 brings!If you’re thinking about trying CrossFit, I can’t recommend Port Clinton CrossFit enough. Come for the workout, stay for the family. ❤️

Caroline does a great job coaching. Pushing where to push and correcting when correction is needed..A+

Always encouraging! And if you're not as experienced in crossfit as other people, like me, they always have different scaling options for the movements to fit your needs.All the coaches are amazing and welcoming! Very knowledgeable! Just a wonderful gym to be a part of!

So grateful to have found a gym with coaches, workouts, progress, and people that motivate me to show up 4-5 days a week. Sal makes 5am classes fun (sounds impossible, but it’s true), and with all of the different workouts, whether scaled or RX’d, I’m getting stronger week by week.

CrossFit PC is a great place to be, especially with Sal as a coach!

Great box! I had a solid deadlift session when I dropped in—who doesn’t love a good lift? Definitely a 10/10, would recommend.

I joined in January (was i forced into it....yes😂)and honestly had no idea how much this gym would impact my life. Never thought I would be a gym girlie🤷🏽‍♀️. Walking into a CrossFit gym at 5 AM was intimidating at first, but from day one, the coaches and members made me feel welcome.The 5 AM crew is hands-down one of the best parts of my day. They're hardworking, supportive, and absolutely hilarious. Somehow they make suffering through burpees before sunrise fun(bearable is probably more accurate 🤣).Since joining, I've gotten stronger physically, but the biggest change has been my confidence. I've pushed myself further than I thought I could, hit goals I never imagined, and developed a mindset that carries over into every part of my life. It not just about the physical changes it's the mental ones, when you push through and hit a new PR you never thought you could do, it really boost your self confidence.If you're on the fence about trying CrossFit, don't be. No matter your fitness level, you'll find encouragement, accountability, and a community that genuinely wants to see you succeed. Joining this gym was one of the best decisions I've made this year.💪 5 AM crew for the win.

Dropped in to run the murph. CFPC has such a strong and supportive community, it was awesome to join on memorial day for a great workout and celebration. Looking forward to coming back!

Best part of my day. I always feel encouraged and energized. I never feel unsafe and know I am also being watch for proper form. I have never felt stronger.

Great facility, very clean. The coaches are involved at every workout helping you to do better. I’ve done a variety of group workouts, over many years, and I feel that this setting helps push me to achieve my goals. Everyone is accepting and helpful, great environment!

I’ve been to a few classes at CrossFit Port Clinton now, each with a different coach, and every single one has been fantastic. The coaches are incredibly attentive, detail-oriented, and genuinely warm. I’m new in town, and they’ve made me feel welcome. The programming has been spot-on too — each workout felt amazing. Highly recommend! 💪

Nothing beats a 5am workout at CrossFit Port Clinton. Great folks, awesome energy, high level coaching

2026-03-29T16:12:27.111Z

CrossFit Port Clinton is very friendly and easy to start. Brett’s coaching is great.

2026-03-27T12:36:17.682Z

CrossFit Port Clinton is an amazing gym! Lex and Brett are welcoming owners, as well as the coaches and members. Any fitness level…does not matter, don’t think you have to be in shape to come (crazy I know but I had that thought before I joined back in 2021!!!) they accommodate to your needs! All of the coaches are very knowledgeable and supportive. And you’ll meet some great people that really start to feel like family. For me it makes getting up for my 6 AM workout feel that much easier!! Come give it a try…you won’t regret it!

2026-03-25T12:32:15.323Z

CrossFit Port Clinton is absolutely amazing!! Lex, Brett, and all the coaches are so welcoming and really take the time to help during class!

2026-03-22T14:25:07.910Z

These classes are challenging and motivating! The instructors are knowledgeable and really care about your suscess! Brett has a way of simplifying things for me. He explains the movements and works with me until I get it! He is an inspirational coach and makes me want to give my all!

Very nice gym. They seem to care alot about your health. There is always someone to help if you need it. Nice team support. They also make sure you have good technique so you don't hurt yourself.

Equipment and facilities so clean you can see your own look of regret in your reflection while doing burpees. The coaches are incredibly encouraging, one coach yelled "Finish Strong!" while I was getting off the floor after the warm up. Highly recommend if you want daily accountability texts from both coaches and members alike. It's the only place where "ripping" and "getting deeper" are a normal tuesday at 5am. Everyone is surprisingly polite, except for the one blonde girl in the 5am class that is always complaining and requesting the music be changed to "something after 1990 or country." Hope you'll give this place a try!

From the moment you walk in, this gym feels welcoming. It doesn’t matter if you’re brand new or experienced—everyone is rooting for you. People cheer you on through hard reps, encourage you when you fail, and celebrate every win right alongside you. The coaches are truly amazing: friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring. They take the time to help you improve while making sure you feel supported and confident. This gym is more than just a place to work out—it’s a community. I can’t wait to see what new PRs 2026 brings!

Stella is a laid back coach, but she knows exactly what she is talking about! During every session at CrossFit Port Clinton, she goes around the room carefully watching everyone’s form and technique. She offers great advice on how they can improve their movements or alter exercises to better fit their abilities or needs.I’ve seen her notice when someone’s posture is off and gently guide them to adjust their stance or recommend a lighter weight to avoid strain. She’s always upbeat and positive, bringing an encouraging energy that makes the workouts feel more achievable. You can really tell she truly enjoys coaching - the way she interacts with each person, checking in with smiles and enthusiasm, creates a welcoming and motivating atmosphere. It’s a wonderful balance of laid back and knowledge that makes training here feel both challenging and supportive.

Sal has been great! I’ve been able to learn a lot more about overall athletic movements from Sal. It’s been a great help to get through the workouts more efficiently.
