Cross Fit Ballwin is great for anyone no matter your fitness or experience level. Workouts are personalized based on ability, and the coaches are great assisting the newbies. I appreciate the emphasis on form and the friendly environment. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to improve their health and longevity.
The coaches are great and knowledgeable. I am having a wonderful experience learning about the right forms of workout as well as to continue to push myself :) i highly recommend CrossFit Ballwin!
I have been going to CrossFit Ballwin for a few months. This community is fun, supportive and has challenged me! Truly a great gym!
I found this gym on Google doing a search not even knowing what I wanted to find. I set up a first time meeting with the owner to assess where I was in my fitness goals. She assured me that even though I was absolutely a beginner at working out, they would help me get where I want to be. I’m now two months into it and they definitely delivered on that promise.

I found this gym on Google doing a search not even knowing what I wanted to find. I set up a first time meeting with the owner to assess where I was in my fitness goals. She assured me that even though I was absolutely a beginner at working out, they would help me get where I want to be. I’m now two months into it and they definitely delivered on that promise. I’ve learned so much so far. They have taken so much time to explain things and train me in a way I never feel stupid or insecure about. With absolutely no experience with CrossFit and completely out of shape, I’m already seeing results and feeling excited to learn more! Trust me, they really do mean it when they say anyone can find their place here. Give it a try! You’ll be glad you did! Less
Great coaches, community, and athletes. I highly recommend giving it a try.
The members and coaches have been very supportive as I start my CrossFit journey! I am new to this type of workout and the coaches have been very helpful in explaining the process, the exercises and in modifying when needed.
I’ve been with CrossFit Ballwin for a little over a month now. They have great coaches and they challenge you. I’m loving having accountability and being involved in a gym community again. I was skeptical because I’m a grad student on a super tight budget and it was quite an a commitment&investment for me.

I’ve been with CrossFit Ballwin for a little over a month now. They have great coaches and they challenge you. I’m loving having accountability and being involved in a gym community again. I was skeptical because I’m a grad student on a super tight budget and it was quite an a commitment&investment for me. But I feel so much better and it’s been worth it because of the diverse class times they offer! Working out can be such an obligation and a chore when it’s not really fun, but they make it fun! Less
Coaches care about your progression and help throughout each WOD, (and even send encouraging texts outside of class). Members are super welcoming too and cheer each other on. I was intimidated by Crossfit and nervous to join, but found that anyone of any fitness level is welcome here; they can make any exercise work for you.
Very nice gym in West County. I am a newbie to CrossFit. I worked out at other gyms with plenty of cardio and running but never focused on strength training. This has been a game changer. The coaches are very supportive and informative and really focus on technique to avoid injury. Love this journey I am on with CrossFit Ballwin!
Wonderful veteran and woman owned gym. I love this place! Relaxed environment, knowledgeable coaches and community oriented. I appreciate a gym where you can be challenged without feeling like you are in competition. My physical fitness journey is on the road to improvement. CrossFit Ballwin is a place where you can grow and be supported by a strong community of like- minded people.
Crossfit Ballwin is the best place to train in West County regardless of your fitness journey. It doesn't matter if you’re a novice, experienced, or a weekend Warrior. The attention to detail from the coaches is unmatched. They promote safety first in weightlifting and provide good feedback for us to execute the moves.

Such a great gym and people! Incredibly enjoyed my experience!!
Great coaches and a great community. I’m very new to working out, and they have been so patient and encouraging while teaching me. Highly recommended!
I’m nine weeks in and wish I would have started sooner.

There wasn’t anything intimidating about joining and the 5am classes fit nicely into my schedule. Second, when my body was tired and sore (because I was so out of shape) the coach’s main priority was my recovery. They encouraged me to slow down and workout smart. Lastly, I left today’s CrossFit open workout feeling part of a team. Everyone was competing against themselves, encouraging others, and celebrated the workout completion together afterwards. Happy to show up three times a week! Less
At first I was very intimidated of joining a CrossFit gym, but I joined CrossFit Ballwin and was shocked by the welcome I received. My first class started with a break down of the workout, demonstration of complex movements such as Olympic lifts, and personal coaching to improve technique that would overall decrease injury while increasing output.

My first class started with a break down of the workout, demonstration of complex movements such as Olympic lifts, and personal coaching to improve technique that would overall decrease injury while increasing output. The workout ended with multiple members of the community helping pick up my weights, congratulating me for giving the workout my all, and chatting with me like we had been friends for the past 5 years even though I had just met them. The community at CFB is the key to helping me stay consistent. I have never felt better and I have new friends that I would’ve never met without CFB. I highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to find consistency and results! Less

Great coaches, love the classes and sizes of the classes. Everyone is so willing to help
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, my only regret is not joining sooner. This is more than a gym. It’s a community of amazing people where coaches and members care for each other and motivate you to be a better person, a better athlete. This is truly a no judging zone where you feel every accomplishment are is celebrated by all.
Exceptional! I love the community here. I was nervous at first, but found CrossFit to be extremely approachable in this setting. Thank you!

They are always willing to explain a movement or exercise again and have always been willing to help me find an alternative way to do something if I need to! Ive been to many CrossFit gyms but this is by far my favorite! They have build a great community of people who make everyone feel welcome and at ease, you can tell it’s more than a business to them and you’re more than just a member. I hadn’t been in a while and recently received an email asking to meet up for coffee with one of the owners ( Ninette ) which I thought was so kind!! I took her up on it and hearing all the new things they have planned for the gym got started back up! If you’re considering a gym in this area give them a try, you will not regret it!! Less
The community that CrossFit Ballwin has built over the years is like no other. The coaches are the best, always watching and offering minor adjustments to my lifting technique, or lack there of haha 😂. I’ve felt like family since the day I walked in the door back in 2019. I’ve never felt out of place, out of my league or uncomfortable with the members and the coaching staff. It’s been my happy... More

I’ve never felt out of place, out of my league or uncomfortable with the members and the coaching staff. It’s been my happy place for the last 5 years. I just completed the FACT Challenge and I must say, it was an amazing 6 weeks experience. It was motivating, inspiring and challenging in a good way. I’ve tried other gyms over the years, but CrossFit Ballwin is hands down the best, most inclusive gym I’ve ever been associated with. Less
The coaches are the best part of CrossFit Ballwin. Each one is encouraging and patient. They truly care and want you to learn movements and make sure you are being safe.
I’ve been a member at CrossFit Ballwin for over 4 years. My body has never felt better both physically and emotionally.

I joined CrossFit Ballwin when I moved to the area about six years ago. I was impressed with the coaching and loved the community. Over the years I have made many friends as well as maintained my mental health while improving my fitness. This is a great gym!
CFB is a wonderful crossfit gym, the community is outstanding! I enjoy that the workouts can be modified for every fitness level from beginners to advanced. It is truly a gym for everyone.
Crossfit Ballwin is the place for me - I've found my community! Not only do the workouts challenge me, but the coaches help & encourage me. I was really nervous when I first started Crossfit, but the environment at Crossfit Ballwin has helped me feel welcomed and safe to give it my all. This is the best gym in West County - if you’re looking, look no further

Here's a long one. I held off writing this review out of respect, but the amount of disrespect I received recently was just too much to not write this. I was a member of CFB for two years, my husband four. When I started I immediately realized that the (then) owner was a bully to his members. He pushed people too hard and encouraged people to do painful things in their workouts stating that you can't get stronger otherwise. He made fun of people's cultural differences and made disrespectful remarks toward women. I chose to keep going, thinking the workouts were good for me. I enjoyed working with some of the coaches and other members but always felt unwelcome, as I was never included on their "anniversary board", even though my husband was. The (now) owner, the original owner's wife was always very friendly to my husband and less so with me. I attributed this to my having called out her husband for his unprofessional behavior early on. My husband is too non-confrontational to have said anything, but we've had many conversations about how we both felt that things weren't right. Now with multiple double shoulder injuries and many slipped discs between the two of us, we have both been told by physical therapists and orthopedists that CrossFit was the worst thing we could have done to our bodies. Fair enough - not a good reason to write a bad review seeing as we chose to do it. We stopped going once we realized this. But - going back to the friendliness of the (now) owner, my husband had been receiving multiple emails from her stating that she missed seeing his (and only his, not mine) face in the gym, each of which he's chosen not to respond to. The most recent one, however, was an offer to meet up and buy my husband a drink, which was very obviously a blatant attempt at a date. After I confronted her about this, she attempted to cover her tracks by trying to gaslight me into thinking that the email was supposed to have gone to all of their former members and that it was a mistake that I was not included in it. I guess this woman thinks I am an idiot for not believing that she meant to send a message requesting to buy each and every one of her former members a drink, individually. She even tried to send a screenshot of her messages to prove that point, which incidentally clearly proved that those messages went only to my husband. Not sure what kind of weird relationship she and her bully husband have, but my husband and I want nothing to do with it. We are done with CFB forever and always. Do yourself a favor and choose a different method of working out, especially a different facility. Less

Always showed attention to details in everything he did. If you're looking for quality customer service and having a knowledgeable professional trainer, you've come to the right place.
Been going to CrossFit Ballwin for a little over 2 months now and only regret I have is not joining sooner. The owners are awesome, knowledgeable, super supportive and helpful. Coaches are too. The whole community is super welcoming. Top notch place, top notch people!!!
The members and the staff have become my friends and my family. CrossFit Ballwin is like no other workout facility that I have ever been to, it is without pretension and judgement. Everyone there wants to see everyone else succeed!!
There are so many things to love about CrossFit Ballwin, but the thing I love most is that it is so inclusive and thoughtful. They will push you to be better both physically and mentally. I've never felt uncomfortable being there as a girl, unlike other gyms I've been a member of. You won't get bored here!
5 stars all the way.
I love the convenience of the location. It's always so clean in there. The members you see at regular times and get to know. It's never so crowded.
Amazing supportive atmosphere! The coaches take the time to learn everyone and what they need to work on and how to safely push you to be a better athlete
I used to have back problems before I joined almost 8 years ago and developing core strength from the various crossfit movements has made all the difference. Crossfit Ballwin is a great community that encourages and motivates its members to grow in fitness and confidence. The owners Trent and Ninette are wonderful!
This is a great place to drop in. Really welcoming and friendly community.

I was 40, with zero experience, when I walked in CrossFit Ballwin for the first time. The qualified coaches I’ve had helped me to adapt to the workout. Six years later I’m stronger and healthier, physically and mentally.Friendly and supportive community. Highly recommend!

If you want to get absolutely awesome CrossFit workout and have fun at the same time then this is the place to go. From the moment you walk in,everyone will make you feel great. Best part about this place is that every trainer there knows what they are doing and they will make sure before every exercise,you will learn the technique first so you can get the best out of every exercise and workout,not injure yourself. I got really hooked after Trent really helped me with my technique and taught me so much how to execute every exercise properly to get most out of it. Even during class Trent is making sure that everyone there is doing everything as the should and correcting us. Being there for about almost 2 moths I have progressed so much. Bottom line this place is awesome and you will get the results you want and get hooked on CrossFit just like I did. Highly recommend!!!!!!!! Less
In town for a month. Great atmosphere, fun people and great trainers. The trainer spend a lot of time with you to make you you are doing all the move correctly!!! Highly recommend Crossfit Ballwin!!!

Great atmosphere! I dropped in for a few days and everyone was friendly and supportive. I will drop-in to this location the next time I am in town.
Cool gym dropped in for a workout and was very pleased. They are in the backside of the building their in off of Manchester Road. Great coaches

I’m pushing myself further than I think I can and building mental toughness. This all translate to me being more present at home and pushing harder at work. The community is great too. Everyone is so nice and cheers each other on. The coaches are sticklers for proper form but still help push you to try harder than you think you can. Holidays are my favorite, Trent and Ninette always make the most creative holiday WODs. For Easter we hunted for work out movements and who doesn’t love finding an egg to give another team burpees. Thanks for everything you have done for me Crossfit Ballwin! Less
Trent and Ninette have built an amazing atmosphere and energy here. No matter your skill set or level of experience, you are welcomed with open arms. Stop on by... you won’t be disappointed!
CrossFit Ballwin offers great coaches and has a very friendly atmosphere. The equipment is very well maintained. Workouts are scaled to fit any athlete no matter what their fitness level, age or experience. The Level Method is used, ensuring success in goal setting, progress and safety. All around great gym!

My husband was attending CFB for almost 3 years before I joined. He loved it but I was skeptical. I didn't want to bulk up. I joined in June of 2017. My body has been transformed. I'm stronger than I ever thought I could possibly be. My coaches are amazing AND my husband and I are closer than ever because we go to class together and get to share our victories with each other!

Great crossfit gym. Trent was coaching and gave me some great feedback. They have new equipment and a fun culture. I will be back
I dropped in while visiting family in the area. Crossfit Ballwin has a fantastic community. All the member and coaches were very welcoming. I'd definitely recommend swinging by.

Dropped in while on vacation, and was very pleased. The programming was fun, the coaching was helpful and the community was very friendly. This will be my go-to box when in town!
My box away from home! I love every time I get to drop in with Trenton and the crew. The WOD's are well programmed and the culture is very supportive and friendly. If you live in the area I would highly recommend Crossfit Ballwin this is a top notch box.
Dropped in from out of town. Super friendly folks, great box, and look forward to dropping in next time I'm in town!
Great box to drop into. Welcoming staff. Nice workout and facilities. Will go back again if looking to drop in.
I thought my first CrossFit box in Springfield, MO had spoiled me. After doing CrossFit for a couple of years, I moved from 417 to OKC in 2012. I tried every box there and could not find the right one for me; the vibe was off or the coaching was sub-par, or it was too competitive. With that, I gave up on CrossFit for 4 years while in OKC.

I thought my first CrossFit box in Springfield, MO had spoiled me. After doing CrossFit for a couple of years, I moved from 417 to OKC in 2012. I tried every box there and could not find the right one for me; the vibe was off or the coaching was sub-par, or it was too competitive. With that, I gave up on CrossFit for 4 years while in OKC. I had a very stressful job in OKC and my physical and mental health had declined, so when I moved to STL I was determined to get back on track. I just happen to live a few miles from CFB so I thought I would give them a shot. Although my expectations were low due to recent experiences, I was more than happy with the outcome. CFB is the community I was looking for. There is something for everyone; whether you are competitive, recovering from injury/surgery, never lifted a bar in your life, getting back to it after a baby, need accountability, or just fighting the aging process. Trent is dedicated to his members and shows it with one-on-one attention and attention to the needs and goals of his members. Each coach brings a little something different with their approach and each have helped me improve a number of movements. This box is definitely worth a drop-in if you are visiting the area. If you are considering CrossFit and are unsure or feel apprehensive, just send a quick message like I did and I bet you will be just as happy! Less
Great Gym! Trent and staff are awesome. If you want to get into shape, this is the place to go. I would recommend them to anyone.

Joining CrossFit Ballwin has been one of the best decisions I have made. Most of my life I have been involved in sports and as I have gotten older I found myself struggling to find an activity to keep me motivated and in shape while also providing the kind of community that you get from playing team sports. CrossFit gives me that and so much more. CrossFit Ballwin provides this environment with a supportive team based approach to fitness. Trent and his trainer's philosophy about fitness starts in the gym, but gradually seeps into other areas of your life both personally and professionally. Their genuine commitment to making people lead healthier lives is contagious and their personal instruction challenges me to push myself everyday. I’m stronger, healthier and definitely happier. I have reached goals that I never thought were possible and done workouts that I never thought I could complete. My advice for anyone who is considering CrossFit Ballwin is simple: Get in here and try it. Less
Got talked into trying an intro session with my wife back in July 2014 and have been hooked ever since. Trent and the rest of the trainers are top-notch with unbelievable knowledge about getting the most out of your body. I promise that everyone from competitive athletes to grandparents will benefit from coming in here to try it out. You won't find another CrossFit affiliate quite like this one. ... More

What a great place for Crossfit! I've been to gyms all across the country and Crossfit Ballwin stacks up with all of them. Trent, Alex, Meg and the other coaches are great and really help all the athletes in every way possible.
This is an awesome gym and these guys are a lot of fun to work with !
Crossfit Ballwin is a top notch crossfit facility and rapidly expanding to benefit it's ever growing clientele. Top notch business and owner who really cares about his members and the crossfit gym he provides to them along with his great instruction through workouts.
Great environment Trent and all the coaches deliver the goods everyday.
Great people, great coaches, great atmosphere. It's addicting!
CrossFit Ballwin is perfect for training. They have all the equipment to perfect and expand you abilities. Trent and his crew are great. Always there to help with advice on technique, and give me a hard time, I see it as encouragement. It definitely doesn't have the "box" identity you might think. If you're looking to step up your game or just get a change of scene with a good vibe. CFB is it... More

To be honest, I was hesitant to give this a try. The Internet is saturated with depictions of "CrossFitters" flailing around like fools, injuring themselves, and continuously broadcasting to the world in a superior tone that, "They do CrossFit." Trust me. This isn't that. From the time I first walked in, I've been treated like "one of the crew." There's a very close-knit, encouraging atmosph... More
To be honest, I was hesitant to give this a try. The Internet is saturated with depictions of "CrossFitters" flailing around like fools, injuring themselves, and continuously broadcasting to the world in a superior tone that, "They do CrossFit." Trust me. This isn't that. From the time I first walked in, I've been treated like "one of the crew." There's a very close-knit, encouraging atmosphere about this place, which is important when approaching something this intimidating. Trent, the owner and coach, is crazy good at what he does. From day one, you'll be drilled over and over on proper form. Don't understand something? He'll work with you until you do. Can't do a particular movement? You'll do a modified version until you're strong enough to do the real thing. The personal attention you receive is unlike anything I've ever experienced. It's intense. Many workouts end with everyone lying in the floor in a pool of sweat. When you walk out of there, you feel proud that you were able to do something you didn't think you'd be able to do. Trent genuinely wants you to succeed, and will help you every step of the way, both inside and outside the box. If you've ever thought about giving CrossFit a try, come in here with an open mind and see for yourself what it's really supposed to be about. I'm here to stay. Less
Ballwin CrossFit has helped me so much with my swim, bike, and run! I had my 1st sprint tri of the season and I never felt stronger!!! I had not been in a pool, or on my bike, and have done very little running since November. I have been coming to ballwin CrossFit 3 times a week and that has made me stronger and helped me keep my endurance up. I just had my year anniversary at the gym and I look ... More

Thanks to the wonderful coaching of gym owner Trenton Campbell and all my friends at Ballwin CrossFit!! Less

This box is so much better than the one I was at. I was turned off of crossfit cuz of the trainer. Then I found crossfit ballwin an Trent really does care about your goals that you want to reach. All around a good place an good people. Crossfit ballwin is the way to go for you to reach your goals.
I was planning to try out a few places before joining CrossFit Ballwin with Trent. However when you walk into the box and get a REAL COACH, someone who cares about your health and safety....its easy to see why the gym continues to grow. The family and non judgmental atmosphere is perfect for anyone at any level of fitness....young or old...in shape or out of shape....looking to compete or just in... More
I was planning to try out a few places before joining CrossFit Ballwin with Trent.

The family and non judgmental atmosphere is perfect for anyone at any level of fitness....young or old...in shape or out of shape....looking to compete or just increase your quality of life.....and athlete or non athlete. I continue to travel for work to other states and other CrossFit gyms and see the boxes with coaches who are only in it to make money...without doing any coaching and pinpointing problem areas in mobility and technique. Trent does it all here. As the saying goes, "You are never a real success in life unless you help others become successful", and you will find only that here. Less
Did a drop-in on my way thru from San Antonio... Great facility, motivation, and coaches...
If you have been interested in Crossfit, this is the place to go. It is a smaller location with hands on attention. I was very nervous to go to my first class, and found a wonderful trainer in Trent. CrossFit Ballwin is highly recommended by me.
I have joined so many gyms and tried working with so many different trainers but Trent and Crossfit Ballwin are by far my favorite! The idea of Crossfit had always intrigued me but I thought that I would never be able to do it since I was overwieght. I decided to suck it up and try a one-on-one class. I was so nervous, I thought I was going to throw up before walking into the gym. After a few min... More
I have joined so many gyms and tried working with so many different trainers but Trent and Crossfit Ballwin are by far my favorite! The idea of Crossfit had always intrigued me but I thought that I would never be able to do it since I was overwieght. I decided to suck it up and try a one-on-one class. I was so nervous, I thought I was going to throw up before walking into the gym. After a few minutes of talking with Trent (who is the head coach and owner), we got to work. Trent put me through a typical workout but also scaled it back to my ability. He focused on form and technique but definitely challenged me. That first workout was almost 3 months ago....and I keep going back for more! This gym has become like a second family to me. The workouts are challenging but can be done at any fitness level. The people at the gym are so supportive and accepting. I used to dread working out and going to the gym but since finding Crossfit Ballwin, my mentality has changed! I think I'm addicted! The idea of Crossfit can be very intimidating and walking into other Crossfit gyms, you may still feel that way; however I cannot stress enough how that is NOT the case here. There are people of all fitness levels at this location but we all work together and push each other to do our best. Give Crossfit Ballwin a shot and I promise you'll be hooked too! Less
Really special community, you are treated like family as a member of Crossfit Ballwin. Great atmosphere and best personal training you will find at any crossfit gym!
Trent is an awesome trainer. He makes sure your form is correct while working out, to keep u from hurting yourself while working out. And he is very one on one, and really encourages and motivates you to push yourself during workout. It's hard, but man, do you feel great about yourself walking out of there!
