I had the pleasure of dropping into CrossFit Intent while visiting from out of town, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From the start, the staff were welcoming and thorough. They had me sign a waiver and asked about my CrossFit background to ensure I was comfortable with the movements and expectations. As an experienced CrossFit coach myself, I appreciated their attention to detail, especially for newer athletes. The class started promptly with a well-structured warm-up, and the coaches were knowledgeable and engaging throughout. The gym was spotless, with an impressive display of community achievements and benchmarks—a clear testament to the dedication and camaraderie within their members. What stood out most was the sense of community. It was clear that CrossFit Intent is more than just a gym; they’re actively involved in fundraising and community engagement, which speaks volumes about their values. Overall, I had an amazing experience and would highly recommend this box to anyone, whether you’re local or just passing through. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area! Less
I highly recommend Crossfit Intent. It’s not just a gym but a community! The coaches and members are very welcoming, kind & encouraging! The workouts are challenging but can be tailored to meet your needs all while keeping you safe from injury!
Had a great time at CrossFit Intent.. definitely recommend checking out the classes. Everyone accepted me like I was a regular…
CFI is an amazing environment where I have learned to love fitness again! Every workout is different and makes fitness fun.
Just started back at Crossfit Intent after a few years of no crossfit (or working out really) and have been loving every minute. The gym is very welcoming and has meet myself and my husband where we are at in our fitness journey. The coaches as very knowledgeable, not just about fitness, but health overall. If you are looking for a new gym, Crossfit Intent is the place the go!
The coaches are super great. Love the family friendly environment. So glad I signed up. Very clean facility and the workouts are spot on.
Friendly, meets your fitness needs where you are and encourages you from there, great leadership at this franchise

When my gym closed I was nervous I would never find a gym to replace it. However, what I’ve found at CrossFit Intent has been even better than I had hoped for!

This is a great place with exceptional coaches. They push you but don't force you. You learn how to do things the right way and to prevent injury. Leave everything on the workout floor, be consistent and results will definitely follow. I highly recommend anyone at any fitness level.
I have 10+ years of crossfit experience and I moved to a new area. This gym was a great fit. Nice and knowledgeable coaches with a clean and great gym environment to get after it. Highly recommend if you are just starting out or crossift vet.
I wish I would have started years ago. That sums up how I feel about this place. I wasn't sure about joining because let's be real- I didn't think I " belonged " I'm not super strong and I'm not super athletic, but the only person that was judging me- was me.

But here we are 2 months in. Beginning to do things i never thought id be able to do. No judgment from anyone. Nothing but pure bliss. The coaches are beyond helpful, encouraging, and friendly. I've been to other gyms before- and hands down, this tops the others. They care about your goals. They care about technique and they care about life outside the gym. If you've been wondering if you should join, here's your sign. Come to friends week next week and give it a try. You won't regret it. Less
I was visiting from out of town and wanted to get a workout in. I decided on a whim to bring my 12-year-old daughter and omg the community, the coaches everyone made her feel so welcome. The Crossfit World has gained a new athlete, she wants to go back but we have to go home😭. Totally recommend and well priced. The gym is big and could easily accommodate a large group, clean, and kid-friendly.
I dropped in for a few workouts while in town. The gym is clean and well organized, with a very welcoming group and the programming was challenging and fun! Will definitely be back! 100% recommend
I love working out here. Excellent coaches that are patient and knowledgeable. They care about your overall well being. The environment is so cool people bring their kids !
I love CFI. The environment is unlike any other gym we have ever been a part of. The coaches and fellow members are inspiring and supportive. Everyone is welcoming and helpful.

I love crossfit in general because it takes me out of my comfort zone and helps me grow in health and as a person. The coaches are always willing to help with modifiers to help you get a challenging workout in without (further) injuring yourself. My favorite part is that it's only one hour and they tell you what to do! No more decision making for a busy, working mama! CFI has a real sense of community. Jason has built a special environment for strength, growth, health and wellness! Less

CFI is a gym where I get to be challenged and it has an encouraging community that would help me to never give up! I love it!!! 💪🏋️♀️
Challenging workouts and great staff.
CrossFit Intent has been my favorite CrossFit gym experience. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly and genuine. That is not something I’ve experienced at other CrossFit gyms. The coaches make a point to get to know each of the members and are so much fun and so talented. I feel very cared for and challenged at the right balance. If you’re looking for a CrossFit home, this is the place to be.
CrossFit Intent has an incredible community who welcomes all and champions each other in their successes. The coaches have a wealth of knowledge and are extremely helpful. You won’t find a better gym to be a member of!
I was a member of a CrossFit gym for 6 years that unfortunately closed. At the time, I wondered if that was the end of my CrossFit journey.

One of the best health and fitness decisions you can make for yourself. Very welcoming atmosphere and great coaches that will help you any way possible in your fitness journey! You will not regret being part of this community. I have been coming for just over a year and haven’t felt better.

Not only are the "obvious" things great - the environment, the workouts, etc. - but the attention to personal skill and development is great. The coaches are very attentive, helping with healthy movement, form, and technique. The attitude and atmosphere of this gym is top-notch. I love being around and love that I'm getting stronger too.
CFI has been all I could’ve hoped for since joining over five years ago. The coaching is first-rate, focused on total health, pushing you when you aren’t feeling it, and encouraging you to scale back when you should listen to your body. What I enjoy the most is the people who choose to be there, the laughs, and the genuine care for each other. It's more than a gym, it's a community!
Started here 7 months ago after my old box closed. Love the coaches and the members. They made me feel right at home since day 1!!
I am so glad I decided to try this gym. I was worried that I would feel overwhelmed and ashamed for not being able to keep up with the group. This was definitely not the case.

The most awesome coaches- Jason and Katelyn. Created a great CF family. Highly recommend CF Intent to anyone.
Great CrossFit gym for all experience levels. Challenging workouts administered by highly knowledgeable coaching staff who genuinely care about your progress! Highly recommend this gym!

I love that I can go to the gym and get a great workout without having to wait for a piece of equipment or feel like the entire gym is watching me. The coaches challenge you when needed and also support you just the same.
My husband joined 2.5 years ago and pestered me to join since his first day. I am in my mid-50's, extremely overweight and out of shape.

Joining CFI has been one of the best decisions I’ve made! The coaches are great and genuinely care about you and help transform you into your better self! You’ll feel awesome and proud of what you’re capable of! Also, people are very welcoming and supportive!

I have been a member at CrossFit Intent for about 7 years. I came after recovering from a hysterectomy and chemo for ovarian cancer followed by a double mastectomy. I was having trouble mentally getting back to working out. I agreed to getting some help with my Olympic lifting. My husband pushed me through the door to meet Katelyn. She made it very easy for me to get started. We also spent time working on other skills. .Eventually I felt comfortable working my way into classes. It felt so good to workout with other people again. Everyone is so supportive of each other. Less
Without a doubt this is the best health decision you can make! The coaches are amazing and help anyone adapt to the workouts on a daily basis. All levels welcome here and the inclusivity is second to none! You can even use your HSA to pay for your membership!
My favorite place to workout

Game changer for your fitness, health, and overall mindset on life. Jason and his team of coaches are top tier and will get you to not only achieve your goals but excel at them. If you're looking for real change, then look no further because this is it.
This place brings community and has helped me recover my confidence and teaches me to eat better, to believe I can do it and how to set priorities in my life…and much more! When I am feeling down, I just show up and it helps incredibly!!! The people who come to this gym are amazingly supportive! 🏋️♀️💪🤸♀️🏃🏼♀️😁
Best gym in Akron area-great community, coaches are knowledgable and approachable. They really know each member, lots of fun social aspects also!
This is the best gym in Akron!! They offer help with everything from personal training to nutrition and weight loss! They also do a lot of coaching with you during classes!
Absolutely the best gym in the Akron area. I became a single parent when my wife passed away with leukemia and Jason+team became my family.

With no prior CrossFit experience, I was hesistant about joining CrossFit Intent (CFI) but I am so happy I did. Since joining in the summer of 2022, it has far exceeded my expectations. Picking the classes you want to attend throughout the week is on you but from the moment you walk in and class starts, there is a routine that you quickly become accustomed to — all while getting the coaching/mentoring from a certified coach (we’ve got the best ones!), and getting to know other members who cheer/support you. At CFI, you’re surrounded and supported by a community of people who choose to show up and get better every day — and from different walks of life/levels in their fitness. Even though I have a lotta love for the 6pm crew and Sunday Fundays, I so enjoy when we all come together for things like Murph, SOGO, the Open, and more. CFI is the longest standing continuous membership I’ve had — I definitely had to push through the “I have no idea how to do [X, Y, Z] in the workout today” and “I don’t know if I’m feeling it” thoughts in the beginning, but it’s worth it. It’s 1hr of your day investing in yourself/your health, and you deserve that. Less
Joining CF intent has been like joining a supportive family! Everyone is welcoming and ready to cheer you on towards whatever fitness goals you have. Best decision Ive made was joining CF Intent!

CFI focuses on each person as a whole, with sleep, nutrition, movement and more….not just running you through a workout. Safe to say I highly recommend! Less
I've been a member since June and I have found it to be a great community. The coaches are helpful and encouraging. While the other members are welcoming and supportive. I highly recommend CrossFit Intent to anyone looking to join a Crossfit gym (box).

One of the things that I really love and appreciate about the box is that I never feel bad if I have to take time off to deal with something and I always pick up right where I left off with not only the coaches, but also the other members. One of the things that the coaches do well is foster an environment for friendship and camaraderie. In addition to that they are extremely professional and I feel safe when I am working out because they teach the movements clearly, but are also always watching and correcting. I was the member of another CrossFit gym in a different state for a couple of years and didn’t see nearly the amount of progress I have at CrossFit Intent in a much shorter time. 🤗 Less
This is the best CrossFit gym I’ve ever been too! The community it’s awesome, and they are there for you if you need it. The coaches are always there helping you reach your goal, and then the next one. CFI is what I think of when I think CrossFit, CFI is what I think of when I think community.
Great place, great people, awesome workout. 🏋️♀️
Awesome gym to be a part of!! Super fun and inclusive with lots of support for all ages and body types! Family friendly!
Best CrossFit gym in Northeast Ohio. What a great community of motivated, hard working people. The positive culture at CrossFit Intent is second to none!
I struggle with my physical strength and endurance. I have nightmares about challenging myself in this respect. Yet, I have persisted with CrossFit Intent for nearly five years, so far. What does that tell you? This gym is great and the coaches are amazing ~ not to mention being very diligent and patient with me. It has made all the difference! 💪
I have been going to CFI Intent for two years now with my husband. I really love the encouragement and the family friendly atmosphere at CFI Intent. If you are wanting a lifestyle change this is the place for you!

Is fitness something you think about but aren’t doing? CFI can help. I love how open they are to new people and how they encourage and support everyone.
Great local box - friendly people, drop in experience (payment, waiver etc) very easy, and the workout was challenging and adaptable (RX and scaled options for weight and movement as needed). Will definitely be back when in the area.

Family friendly - We love CFI youth and teen classes! I was so excited after joining to find out they provide youth and teen classes. My daughter has been doing classes for 4yrs. Coach Katelyn really works on the basics of lifting and movements with the kids and teens. She brings lifestyle and nutrition into the programs in a fun way that gets kids excited to make healthier choices and shows teens how to continue fueling and supporting their bodies for their sports or just everyday healthier living. It is great to hear my daughter talk about her PR’s in lifting and how proud she is of herself in accomplishing a new goal her and Coach have set. I have seen changes in both her self confidence and in her food choices. Less

If I lived in the area, I would definitely be a member, but also glad to know I have a gym to come to when I come up to the Akron area. Less
Great coach, great people. Focus is on improvement, not perfection, and they scale WODs to meet you where you're at. It's okay to be a beginner or already athletic- with a positive attitude, you'll fit right in!!

I'm coming up on my third year with CrossFit Intent. I've been to boxes all over the country, and there are some really great programs out there. There's nothing like CrossFit Intent.The coaching is top notch, and the community is what really makes it. Literally every person who attends CFI wants to see everyone who walks through the door -- succeed. No one judges, there's never any competition to see who's faster or stronger. Everyone works to raise everyone up. It's the best gym of its type in northern Ohio. I travel an hour round-trip, every day I go, to be with this community. You owe it to yourself to try it. You have nothing to lose, and everything to gain. Less
Great gym. Even better coaches. The best community. Tailored to ALL ages and skill levels, CrossFit Intent is the best choice for getting fit in a fun, safe, encouraging environment. You’re made to feel welcome from day 1. Seriously the best decision you can make for yourself!!
Best gym in Akron for every fitness level! The coaches are well versed and knowledgeable, as well as personable and energetic.
Best CrossFit gym in Akron!!!! Best Coaches in Akron!!!!!
I started working out at this gym about a year ago. When I came into the gym I was new to cross fit and was welcomed with open arms. Everyone in the gym is so helpful and supportive. I have learned so much over the past year from the coaches and yet I still feel like I’m doing something new almost every workout.

I have learned so much over the past year from the coaches and yet I still feel like I’m doing something new almost every workout. I love how everyone is on a different level of fit and yet everyone works out together in their own way no matter their age or fitness level. The coaches do an amazing job supporting me and I genuinely do feel that they care about me, not just my fitness but my whole picture. They make sure to help in ways over and above a workout so that I can meet my goals and exceed them. I would encourage anyone to come in and try CFI from a teen to a grandparent there’s something for everyone here and so many lovely and caring people to meet. Less
Love this gym! Workouts are good and challenging and the people are great! One of the best decisions I’ve made
Best gym in Akron if you want to get FIT. Great people and programming. Love this place!
There isn’t a better community of people. This box is full of support, energy, and of course we get to do CrossFit!!! Best gym in the Akron area for sure!!! 🙌
Best gym this former collegiate athlete has ever been a part of. Great welcoming community for newcomers, deliberate and intentional programming, and quality no frill environment. The Akron areas best!
The best decision I ever made for me and my teen daughters. Because of CFI .. I feel stronger, energetic, more confident, and balanced than I've ever felt. The youth classes they offer is life changing. I see my teen daughters feeling more confident and positive about what their bodies can do.

First class and Jason and the entire class was amazingly friendly and supportive, 5 stars
CFI ROCKS! Great coaches that help you get the most out of your workout while helping you with form. Everyone is nice and fun to workout with. It’s definitely the best hour of my day!
The best community based gym in the Akron area. Perfect for all fitness skill levels. Knowledgable and supportive coaches. I bring people with me every chance I can. I suggest if you're looking for a group of like minded individuals who want nothing more but to see you succeed, come to Crossfit Intent. You won't regret it.
I’ve been going to this gym for almost two years. Before I found CFI I could never workout consistently for an extended period of time.

This gym is it! The coaches are personable, and understanding, and are extremely helpful at all skill levels. Looking for a place to try CrossFit? Try the best gym in Akron/Fairlawn/Bath/Copley area! Looking for a place to socialize while getting in your fitness? Look no further, honestly. Stop in, call, or text and ask for a trial and see why this gym is blowing up!
Fun supportive community and great coaches! CrossFit Intent completely changed my fitness for the better . I am a 6 yrs+ member!
This place is amazing! They care about more than just your fitness, but your nutrition and recovery as well. I have truly gained a fitness family.

After losing my significant other of 26 years, I knew I needed to keep myself busy and I needed a different type of workout. Something that was going to challenge me physically and mentally. CFI is that community. CFI challenges you however provides proper guidance based upon your personal abilities. They have helped me become a better person, increased my can-do attitude, lowered my blood pressure, helped with proper food intake, lose body fat, gain strength and overall confidence. I’m doing stronger movements today than I’ve ever done at a younger age. LOVE IT!! Less

I had always been interested in CrossFit, but hesitant to commit. I worked out alone for years, but it had gotten stale, so I decided to give this place a try. I was hooked immediately! The workouts are a blast! I love the friendly competition, and team aspect of the experience at CrossFit Intent. I consider these people some of my best friends. They've inspired me to become healthier all-around.
I love the environment, the people and the workouts themselves. The coaches really know what they are talking about and they are a constant source of motivation.

I asked for restitution 2+ years ago after a corrupt experience with Crossfit intent. They not only did not make restitution but I still get texts asking for my business like I did just now. I have told them more than once I am incensed after the lack of integrity by which this crossfit gym is run. Bob Fraterna, co owner two years ago lied about my final body fat numbers in order to fail me from completing the 20 lbs or 6% body fat loss (I had lost 18 lb so getting my $500 for the challenge back depended on reaching the bf goal. Despite him enlarging my numbers by 25% in certain areas and bringing this case to Jason after I had been measured elsewhere to prove the lie, they kept my money. They didn't keep their promises to the contract, body shamed me, and kept my money by a lie. Bob actually told me that "my legs had gained body fat because I had exercised extra." This was strictly following the prescribed diet and yes, exercising extra but I had already been working out 5-6 days a week before Crossfit so was used to that intensity. Exercising extra and following the diet strictly does not increase your body fat by 25+% in any area of your body. I am still waiting on my $500 back. All the other reviews are part of doing the "free" program I did. I marketed for Crossfit with reviews here, 18 Facebook posts, and followed the program and instead was rewarded with crookedness and corruption for my efforts. Less

I still wasn't where I wanted to be with working out on my own so I gave it shot. It didnt take long to realize I had a lot to learn. I thought I was already confident and in shape. I didnt expect this place and these people to change my life! It's so much more than lifting heavier weights and learning cool movements like handstand pushups and squat snatches. It's learning how to take care of your body, eat healthier, approach life with a positive mindset, and just overall wellness. The coaches are always there to support you, in and out of the gym, and answer any question big or small, or just to ask you how your day went. Being a part of this community is priceless. CrossFit Intent is truly for anyone of any skill level, and you will be amazed at what you can do. But most importantly, you will become a better human in the process. Less

Katelyn is an incredible coach! She is attentive and supportive during class and so knowledgeable about maximizing physical results. She is great with kids and adults alike. Every CrossFitter I've met at Intent was friendly and welcoming. They will make you feel right at home.
Huge shout out all the coaches, they’re great coaches. Super helpful and educational! Immaculate box and equipment, great community! 10/10
I am not self-motivated, so I need a place where people are friendly, coaches push people to perform better, and athletes can see progress. This gym uses The Level Method to track progress. Best tool ever! Highly recommend CFI. I’ve seen tremendous progress in the past 6 months. Can’t wait to see where I am in another 6.
I started with a 6 week challenge. Drug 3 of my friends along with me for extra motivation. Maybe 3 weeks in I knew this was the place for me!!

My hubby and I have belonged to CrossFit Intent for over 3 years now and it still exceeds my expectations! You get so much more than just a workout. The community within this gym is unlike any other I’ve experienced in the Akron area. It’s incredibly supportive from both coaching staff and other athletes. Consider CFI especially if you are just beginning or getting back to your fitness goals.
Fantastic community to transform your mind and body.
Great , fun place to workout . Real sense of community, Coaches take time to make sure doing things right, keep you at the appropriate level and safe. Care about avoiding injuries while keeping you accountable.

I've been doing CrossFit for seven years and have been a member of four boxes. I've been at CFI for five of those years. The coaches here will tailor your workouts to your particular skills and goals. The community here is also awesome. Everyone is very encouraging and friendly.
Great coaching, friendly atmosphere, & fun that leads to results!

I've been going here for 6+ Months now and love it. Great environment, great people, and lots of energy! They teach you how to push your hardest every day.. typically you start sweating before the end of the warm up and you're exhausted by the end of the workout - I love it. In the Best shape of my life!
What I love about Crossfit Intent: It doesn’t matter what your fitness level is, it doesn’t matter how old you are, it doesn’t matter what what you do for a living, gender or race, doesn’t matter. We come together, we move, we sweat, we laugh, we support, we leave happier. Every. Single. Time.
Community and strength training together! CrossFit Intent doesn’t judge, they support. They have shown me over and over that they care about my well-being — physical and emotional. The coaches are superb and know how to help you meet your fitness goals while staying safe. Join CFI! You will be welcomed home the minute you walk in the door.
It's a great gym with great coaches. The coaches are knowledgeable and will modify any workout for any level of fitness.
I’ve been at CrossFit for a little over a year and it’s truly changed my life! I love the community and my whole body has changed so much! I am almost 45 years old and I think I’m in the best shape of my life right now!!! Definitely recommend CrossFit to anyone young or old. You won’t be disappointed.
The coaches keep me going, the other athletes offer encouraging support and the variety of workouts keep it interesting and challenging.
Love this place! I’ve been here for almost 10 years and I’m still learning new things, being challenged, and having a ton of fun! I’m a mom of 5 buys kids; if I can do it, you can do it!!

I am always a little hesitant to workout with heavy weights and barebells due to the possiblity of "tweaking" my back or similar injury that slows down my life outside of they gym.

I joined over 4 years ago with my daughter and I am still going to CrossFit Intent. The coaches and the people are what make this gym a "huge" step above every other place I have ever been! Even my kids who have been to this gym always compare it to other CrossFit gyms around the country and inevitably say that CrossFit Intent is the best!
Katelyn is the best!
I’ve been a member here for 8 years! The programing has helped me work on establishing better habits in regards to nutrition and sleep. As a middle aged woman, CFI keeps me strong and fit and able to maintain a very active lifestyle . The community and friendships are the best !
If you are looking for a variety of workouts each day & a positive atmosphere, this is the place!
I love the variety of workouts, the coaches always help to make sure my form is correct, & the community has made it a fun place to go.
Great box! The Coaches here are amazing- they take the time to watch you, show you how to improve a movement, encourage you and even modify movements for you. The members are awesome- no judgement just encouragement and help. It feels like coming in and working out with your family
This box has the best team that I've worked with so far. No matter what level you are at in your fitness journey this is the place for you. I've never been in better shape in my life because of this crew!
A sense of strength and community—exactly what I was looking for!
CFI has taught me that I can do so much more than I ever thought I could! The workouts push you to a new level and the community pushes you even further! Great gym, awesome people, amazing coaches! If you are going to try CrossFit I suggest you start here and save yourself the trouble of searching! #lovecfi
Just in town for a couple days and dropped in. Great trainers and fantastic people. Wish I had a fit-fam like this in my area!

I've really enjoyed the past two years at CFI. The coaches are awesome and have helped me go from a total newbie to feeling comfortable with a barbell. The community is great!
Started here with a 6 week challenge and have now been a member for a year and a half. First time in my life I have enjoyed working out and it's a great group of people and coaches who are there to help and make it fun and rewarding! Don't be intimidated- even if you are in horrible shape. Highly Recommend!
No matter where you are in your healthy life-style journey, the coaches at CFI are able to tailor a fitness plan that helps you push forward. The CFI family is: Personable Friendly Knowledgeable Passionate

I’ve been crossfitting for 6 years and actually owned a box for 3. Crossfit is part of my routine when I travel so I’ve seen many boxes over that time. With all that said loved CFI. I was planing a long trip to town and reached out regarding dropping in. They responded quick with answered all my questions. When I arrived I was greeted and welcomed immediately. The members are welcoming and the coaching is knowledgeable and encouraging. I would highly recommend this box to everyone who asks. On a side note I read some other reviews and they are in bad taste. Please remember these are small family owned businesses. I’ve paid 125-300 a month at other boxes and I’m pretty sure you get a great value at this box. On another side note everyone thinks these gyms are huge money makers however they are not. They take many hours to operate taking you from your family. Only to be under appreciated by athletes that you pour your heart into. This review may be a touch personal however all issues can be remedied and the opinion of one person shouldn’t stop the next person from taking that first step to improving there life. Less
Thursday 6am coach is great!!
I started the six week challenge at CFI at the beginning of September. I mostly attended the 9 am classes. The group that typically attends at that time is super welcoming and fun. There are people of all skill levels which makes it a good class to attend for anyone who may be nervous or new to CrossFit. I had a great experience with all of the coaches.

I was very happy with my results and plan to continue going as a regular member. Less

Integrity is why I have demoted my first review. I wrote a 5-star review at the beginning of my experience with Crossfit Intent because I loved the workouts. My end experience was not great however because Bob Fratena did my final weigh-in and caliper test and lied about my thigh numbers by 30 points higher on the % body fat higher than they were at the three week login! I had decided not to stay with Crossfit because it wasn't in my budget and Bob inflated my final caliper numbers on my thigh by an enormous amount. (I was told he didn't but with his degrees and his job, of course, he did.) When I questioned his weird stream of numbers, he tried shaming me saying he couldn't even get the calipers on me and that my workouts had increased my body fat by 30% points on my thighs than the 3-week mark. What a load of malarkey. I understand how body fat works and eating clean and working out did not increase my body fat 30%. I expected a fair competition. I had felt really good about the 18 pounds I lost and how I looked going into the final weigh in. I worked my tail off for the six-week challenge and instead of giving me my real results, he lied. After Bob's rudeness and lies, I questioned the integrity of it to Chad and I was pushed aside. Cara and Jason redid my calipers again to find my thigh numbers 25 and 23 points lower respectively, proving I was right. I am not a fitness newcomer. I told Crossfit I wanted an apology from Bob multiple times. Bob avoided me, not once taking responsibility for his intentional break with integrity and trying to blame me for it. I asked for some sort of action to be done and over the next three weeks, nothing was done to deal with an owner that lied about numbers. I should have been refunded over that stunt. I am honestly appalled and wonder how often this happens? Jason is great. I like him a lot. There are some cool people at Crossfit, but Bob should lose his license as a coach for that stunt. I would not choose this gym if I could afford it because of Bob's rude unethical treatment of me as a client. I expected a fair competition and received lies when it looked like I might make the final body fat numbers. Less
Had a great time. Very well organized and ran event.
These folks are great. Athletes are progressing, and you can earn Bob bucks!!
Great place , great coaches and good people.

We have been welcomed by the coaches and members and really feel how special this place is. There are so many members that are supportive of each other’s journey and welcoming.

I am so glad I found CrossFit!! Great people and you Always have the support from everyone there! I don't feel lost the staff helps you!! ����

CrossFit is EXCELLENT!!!! I did the 6 week challenge, and the 1st day, I knew exactly where I had been going wrong with working out. I was over exercising and under eating, meaning I was counting calories and would do stupid things like eat a couple of slices of pizza and say "Since that was this many calories, I just won't have any dinner."

CrossFit is EXCELLENT!!!! I did the 6 week challenge, and the 1st day, I knew exactly where I had been going wrong with working out. I was over exercising and under eating, meaning I was counting calories and would do stupid things like eat a couple of slices of pizza and say "Since that was this many calories, I just won't have any dinner." Well, you can't do things like that with the challenge. You learn how to eat whole foods and how to nourish your body, not how to 'cheat the system'. I feel a difference on the inside, a clarity and serenity... it feels like my cells are happy. Every coach is GREAT. Sometimes, you go places and the staff is imbalanced (my daughter did Tae Kwan Do years ago and we loved the teacher that signed us up, but not one of the other teachers compared to him). No matter who was leading the class, my body was TORN UP at the end! I dreaded every single coach because they worked us out equally hard (but still not to the point of overdoing it for where YOU were at). I will be telling ALL of my friends about my experience with CrossFit Intent! I can't wait to do a video about it!!! The difference is not only internal, but external as well! People are commenting on my skin, my energy and my new approach to exercise and life! Less
I completed the 6 week challenge and it was such an amazing experience! Not only did we focus on strength and fitness, but we also learned so much about proper nutrition! I lost 12 lbs and I have so much energy! Everyone is so friendly and encouraging!
I just finished a 6 week challenge at CrossFit Intent. It was the best experience I have ever had with working out and eating right! Everyone there is friendly and so helpful! I loved it and so glad for the experience!
I have been at CFI for two years now! The environment is very positive and friendly. I have never felt uncomfortable or out of place there. The coaches are amazing and so attentive to individuals and their needs. They focus on all aspects health, not just how much weight you can lift or how much weight you can lose. I would encourage anyone looking to improve their health to come check it out!!
Competed in my first competition here. Outstanding staff, well organized and ran smoothly. Will certainly be back for future comps here!
Amazing place I love the six week challenge I learn alot and not just working out.
Going to CrossFit has definitely been the best decision I’ve ever made! The coaches are absolutely amazing and the support you receive from everyone is so abundant. There is a good reason why they call it a CrossFit family!!! The love, support, and motivation I have received the helped me so much! Just know that if you think you can then they’ll help you get there!
Great place to workout and get results. Thanks for the support!!!
I dropped in for a couple weeks while I was in town for work. All of the coaches were outstanding, and everyone in the classes were friendly and welcoming, which is not always my experience when dropping into new gyms. I wish I could have hung out with this crew longer!
The class was great. Jason is a wonderful instructor. He pushes you to be a better you but works at a pace you can keep up with. I'm wore out but looking forward to my next workout. I highly recommend Crossfit.
I did a drop-in with short notice. Jason was very friendly and accommodating. I went to a 6:00 am class and everyone in the class was friendly and welcoming. They have a ton of gear and the class ran very well. I plan to return the next time I am in the area. TOP NOTCH!!

Dropped in while visiting family in Akron. I felt very welcomed by the coaches. They were friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel right at home - with some great pointers along the way. Definitely my box away from home during any future visits. Thanks, Jason and Erin.
Amazing coaches and staff! Very willing to help, encouraging and just down right awesome 😊
Great community and coaches! Always pushing me to be my best!

The convenience and community are simply the best. At first I felt that I was joining a group of already established friends. However, there was always a couple of friendly people to great me right away. Those few people grew and grew as I got more comfortable. Now I'm hooked and can't stand being away.
After years of gym , I find CFI to be a refreshing ,challenging and powerful method of achieving fitness.Joined 5 months ago and already feeling stronger faster and have better endurance. Great Choaches , great people ,awesome journey !!!
Great coaches and a great community! If you're thinking about giving CrossFit a try you won't be disappointed.
Been going for a year now. A great wholistic approach. Ive learned a ton about strength, nutrition, well being and made a lot of great friends in the process.
Great community of people that push you to be better. Great coaches that help you at every level. Drop in and give it a try.
I started CrossFit to get better at obstacle racing, now I obstacle race in hopes it will make me better at CrossFit. The coaches and community here have inspired and pushed me to do things I never thought I could. My questions are no longer "Can I do it?", instead I ask "Can I beat my last time or weight?"
CFI is amazing! Great people, great coaches, awesome programs to support you with your nutrition and fitness goals - and crazy good workouts! �
Joining CFI was the best decision I've ever made for my health! I have seen more (positive) changes in my body In the last 6 months than I have in my entire adult life. What's even better is there's a great sense of community and it's one big family here. Everyone's always cheering each other on! �
I hate thrusters. And wall balls. And rowing. And cleans. And sit ups. And push presses. And especially burpees. But I love Crossfit Intent. �
I love all the athletes that cheer you on and push you to be your best.

I was at a pretty low point in my life. Literally, the largest I had ever been without being pregnant. I had just purchased my first pair of 'I-give-up-elastic-waist-pants' when I thought "is this really happening to me?" I was trying anything, and I mean anything. TRX, Yoga, cardio (the bane of my existence), Barre, etc. You name it and I tried it. Nothing stuck. Nearing 40 and desperate for change I saw the "Best Self Challenge." I thought I could do 8 weeks, and if they can help with the diet too, win-win! The welcome letter really struck a chord with me. I still have it posted at my desk. The best line, the one that really resonates, "feel challenged but not overwhelmed." Needless to say, I am hooked, going strong since October 2016, not turning back any time soon. Best gym experience ever!! Less
A super friendly box and over all great experience! Thanks!
Dropped in here for a week while in town visiting family. Great people and great coaches. I brought my sister-in-law who had never done Crossfit however has an athletic background and a separate coach took her and other newbies in a separate room to teach mechanics and the fundamental movements. Very detailed and passionate people coaching here! Great place!!!!
I looooove it! Coaches are amazing and the people are wonderful.
Good people, good coaching. good community. All good!
Wonderful community and coaches that care about their athletes!!! This is my crossfit home in Cleveland/Akron.
CrossFit Intent has changed my life!! I'm feeling stronger and healthier than I did when I was in the Army. The camaraderie and support you get walking through these doors is like no other. The coaches are amazing and so helpful, they truly care about your well being!
Excited to start Transformation Contest .....even starting on vacation...which was planned before I knew about Cross Fit! Great job coaches!

It is not that at all! At Cross Fit Copley, attainable goals are set, and of course, with some work, those goals are met. The coaches do the thinking for you, planning challenging workouts. You just show and workout. It's like being with a personal trainer, but in a small group setting. I have been a runner for many years, and I felt I needed a challenge. I needed to start working out other muscle groups. I do not have the motivation or knowledge as how to work out in the gym on my own. Cross fit Copley has the perfect blend of working out, which is helping me tone up. This will help my running and improve my fitness level. I would recommend Copley Cross Fit. Less

Prior to CrossFit I tended to avoid weights and just do interval training on my own. It was hard to stay consistent, motivated and get to the next level. Working out in a group clearly lets me push harder while also making it a fun hour versus just a task to get done during the day. The coaches at CrossFit Copley are particularly strong and do a good job of guiding you through the process . They really do a great job of making sure you are doing the technique correctly avoid injury while also making sure you push yourself. Overall its been a good experience and something I want to keep part of my fitness and social routine. Less
Great atmosphere - lots of support and personal attention to individual needs while getting a kicka@@ workout in. Highly recommended!

From my first impression to the last time I did a workout there, my expectations are met every time. Jason, really helped correct my deadlift form and that lead to a 30 lb PR Deadlift! I have gotten some much stronger than I had thought I ever could. I am able to do things I haven't been able to do. I've always wanted to run a 5k but thought I wasn't fit enough before CrossFit Copley. They gave me the direction I needed to train and the determination to finish with a great time. I highly recommend coming to see them for your fitness needs. Less

With new CrossFit boxes popping up every month, it seems, I was initially unsure where to go. With some CrossFit experience under my belt, I had tried out some different boxes in the area. I can say, without a doubt, that CrossFit Copley is THE best fitness program you can find locally. The education and experience of the four coaches combined is enough to ensure that you will get your money's worth. Each session is filled with individualized attention, coaching, and a healthy push to reach even further with your goals. The attention to detail regarding the importance of nutrition (meaning supportive eating - when and what to eat to achieve the best results, instead of the usual "don't eat this or that" advice you may find elsewhere) is topped only by the consistency of the coaches in their efforts to check in with athletes along the way to make sure they're getting the most out of the experience. This whole-body, whole-life approach is perfect for those wanting to make a lasting change. And it is FUN! I never thought I would be someone who looks forward to the butt-kicking workouts we walk into each day at CFC… but I do! I would recommend (and have recommended) CrossFit Copley to anyone looking to shock themselves by achieving what seems impossible! Less

Everyone is so friendly! All the coaches know everyone's name & make a point of making sure everyone gets to know everyone else. The coaches are extremely qualified, all with four year degrees (or more!) in exercise, which as an RN I think this is very important in preventing injuries. The coaches are always making sure everyone is doing the exercises correctly & they are nothing but encouraging! AND I have only been going for a couple weeks & I already see an increase in muscle...woo hoo!!!!! I live a good half hour away from this Crossfit & could easily find many closer ones but I wouldn't change locations for anything! Thank-you Erin, Bob, Brian & Jason :) Less

Lifting at the gym and workouts on my own just aren't the same. When you step in the doors of CFC you are an athlete (regardless of what level) if you enjoy challenging workouts and bettering yourself and those around you. The coaches have the ability to make each person feel important, special, and focused on while there. The personalized attention given to each member is amazing. Form is also crucial in CrossFit to ensure safety and growth and I feel the coaches have very watchful eyes. I'm very comfortable in every WOD knowing that I'm getting walk through instructions and feedback on form throughout the workout. On top of physical fitness and the community CFC also provides nutrition seminars and will help each individual meet their goals. I have been a member for 3.5 months and am already reaching goals and seeing results! Less

Earlier this year I began to feel burnt out, lacking motivation and a drive to get better. When I heard about Crossfit Copley opening in September I was interested but hesitant at first. As a "bodybuilder-style" lifter, I was very skeptical of Crossfit...even though I really knew nothing about it! Trusting Brian, I took the plunge and became one of the first CF Copley members. Needless to say, I have never looked back. It was the best fitness decision I have ever made in my life. The atmosphere that that CF Copley provides is second to none. The coaching is amazingly high quality, which is crucial to prevent injury. My teammates constantly keep me going even when I want to quit. I haven't felt camaraderie like this since I was in organized sports. It has reignited my passion to become a better person both physically and mentally. Less
Crossfit Copley is a game changer in the area of fitness. They will make you run faster, jump higher, and burpee better. And as an added bonus all of their trainers are super cute !!

With their different backgrounds and experiences they can put their ideas together to solve any problem or create new workouts and ideas. I am most amazed with the different levels of ability in the gym yet they seem to make every single person get individualized attention. I am very impressed with CrossFit Copley and am getting the results I want. I know I will be part of this community for a long time. Less

It may sound cliché, but Crossfit Copley has changed my life! I have never been a self-motivator when it came to exercise...I tried joining a gym, yoga and boot camp classes, running...but never seemed to find that "high." That is until I stepped into the box!! Not only was I stepping into a high-intensity, ever-changing work-out, but I was stepping into a group of highly educated and well-trained coaches, a community of people who not only cheer each other on, but who have to do burpees if they fail to introduce themselves to newcomers, into a new way of thinking about exercise, and, for the first time, into that "high" that everyone seems to talk about when they find their work-out niche! It was the first time I can actually say I was addicted to working out!!! And the best part is, unlike walking into gyms and fitness classes, I never once felt intimidated or nervous...it truly is a work-out like no other! People say that crossfit is expensive...did I have to tighten things and examine my budget? Yep...did I have to cut back on so many trips to the mall? Yep....but is it worth every penny of that expense? You bet it is!!! Thank you to Crossfit Copley for helping me find that self-motivator that was buried so deep inside me!! Less

The reason this place is my second home is because the other members are like family to me. Everyone is extremely supportive of one another and pushes each other to be the best they can be. Aside from providing excellent workouts and motivational support, the trainers have taught me the proper nutritional guidelines to reach the personal goals I have always strived for. I can not say enough wonderful things about this place! The overall results you will receive are undeniable. Come join the family! Less
This place ROCKS! I have been lucky enough to workout at CFC since the middle of December and I absolutely love it. I have tried other gyms, fitness centers and even Crossfit gyms and CFC is top notch. The coaches all have an extensive background in fitness and health and are always there help you with form or any other questions you have.

This place ROCKS! I have been lucky enough to workout at CFC since the middle of December and I absolutely love it. I have tried other gyms, fitness centers and even Crossfit gyms and CFC is top notch. The coaches all have an extensive background in fitness and health and are always there help you with form or any other questions you have. Bob, Brian, Erin and Jason are also some of the friendliest people you will meet. There are always smiles and hellos when you walk through the door and they support not only the fitness end of Crossfit but they strive to build a community among their box of positively fit people. I haven't done a workout I didn't enjoy and I am sure they will continue to have creative and new ways to make the workouts fun. Overall a phenomenal place to be and workout! Less
In just one month of trying Crossfit I got addicted. I was finally seeing results! I was working out in the gym all through college so the past 4 years and never saw the results that I gained in just one month. I lifted heavy, well what I thought was heavy but then I came to cross fit copley and the coaches pushed me to try heavier weights. I was squatting 30 more lbs than I thought I could. The ... More
In just one month of trying Crossfit I got addicted. I was finally seeing results! I was working out in the gym all through college so the past 4 years and never saw the results that I gained in just one month. I lifted heavy, well what I thought was heavy but then I came to cross fit copley and the coaches pushed me to try heavier weights. I was squatting 30 more lbs than I thought I could. The adrenaline rush is insane! Not only did the heavy lifting help to increase my muscle gain but also their education about proper nutrition. The coaches offer nutrition seminars to teach you about the proper diet. I learned the importance of protein for my muscles! CFC isn't just a gym. CFC is a place full of friends, people that want to see you success, and people that really know their stuff. They offer a one month trial. Just try the trial! Guarantee you'll want more :) Less
Crossfit Copley is an amazing place to workout at. From the coaches who take the time to help you with your goals and to the members who want to achieve their goals. I would recommend Crossfit Copley to anyone!!!!!!
Prior to my first visit to Crossfit Copley I had some anxiety about what to expect. My fear was that I would encounter lots of beefed up body builder types (primarily male) and a coach that screamed while forcing me to lift more weight than I could handle! I'm happy to report that was NOT the case. Instead I met Jason and Brian, two highly qualified, very professional guys. They are passionate ab... More
Prior to my first visit to Crossfit Copley I had some anxiety about what to expect. My fear was that I would encounter lots of beefed up body builder types (primarily male) and a coach that screamed while forcing me to lift more weight than I could handle! I'm happy to report that was NOT the case. Instead I met Jason and Brian, two highly qualified, very professional guys. They are passionate about what they do and are committed to changing lives. Crossfit Copley has clients from every walk of life and every fitness level. The coaches are excellent about accessing your fitness level and making appropriate modifications if necessary. I feel comfortable and trust their judgement. They are all about teaching the proper form and technique to avoid injury. Whatever your level of fitness and whatever your fitness goals are, Crossfit Copley will exceed your expectations. As someone who has exercised most of my life but has no weight lifting experience I very much appreciate their patience and dedication, in a small group community session which is close to personal training but without the personal trainer price tag. Crossfit Copley also offers nutrition guidance in the form of a nutrition seminar. Its not just about a whole body wokout, its also about feeding the body the nutrition it needs to maximise performance and results. The nutrition seminar bas been invaluable to me in my everyday life. So my advice is, if you are considering a change try Crossfit Copley .....its fun, challenging and a very positive experience.

I'd always been intimidated by the term Crossfit and the stereotype that surrounds it but when I saw a groupon package for CrossFit Copley I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did - all the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful - providing modifications if you can't do something yet and/or constantly correcting form to ensure you stay injury-free. I've been going for 3+ months... More
I'd always been intimidated by the term Crossfit and the stereotype that surrounds it but when I saw a groupon package for CrossFit Copley I decided to give it a try. I'm so glad I did - all the instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful - providing modifications if you can't do something yet and/or constantly correcting form to ensure you stay injury-free. I've been going for 3+ months and I'm hooked. I've always maintained a certain level of activity and fitness in my life - playing sports, running, lifting weights at the gym etc - but this is the first time I've truly felt like an athlete. They genuinely want you to succeed in and outside of your workouts and provide help with nutrition among other things. They push you in the WODs but they also know what you're capable of - I love being competitive with myself and being better than I was yesterday. CrossFit Copley provides the perfect outlet for that.
