CrossFit Hartford

Joseph Fragomeni

I joined this gym about 2.5 years ago and it was the best decision I have ever made. This gym is the gold standard of fitness facilities lead by a coaching staff that shows some of the highest level of expertise I have ever experienced. The more you go to the classes offered at CFH the more you start to see the bigger picture of what the coaches are helping you attain. Further, they will often take the time to share and teach to individuals and the class as a whole why we are doing things, the benefit, and how we can improve further. Their passion for their craft and the drive they have to be masters of what they do is the heart and soul of this facility. This extreme level of professionalism with an at home environment and feel I did not know existed. You feel like you are just hanging out with friends and family, joking and laughing, but at the same time you are learning more about yourself and improving your fitness in the most efficient and effective ways possible. I do believe everyone should check this place out, no matter what level of fitness. I got my fiance to start coming here and she loves it, I wish my mother lived closer so she could be a member of this gym, and if I had kids you can bet they would be active members of this gym as well. This place will change your life, all you have to do is show up as regularly as possible. You will find yourself in an environment where every single person wants you to succeed and coaches providing you the tools to do so. There is no prerequisite to starting the program here, you can get off the couch with no knowledge of movement and these coaches will work with you to get you where you need to be. Don't wait to join up because you feel like you have to get in shape before joining, the benefits of starting NOW will outweigh anything you think you can do on your own by a long shot. In my time here I have seen several people come in and have their lives changed, all you have to do is muster up the courage to walk through the doors. I want to thank Kevin Doyle, Mark Balkun, and Justin Talbot for providing such an amazing service I look forward to attending every day.

I’ve been going to CF Hartford since I moved to CT in 2014. The coaches and community are amazing! I was worried I would not find a CF gym that I loved as much as the one I had left in North Carolina, however, CFH has become a home away from home. The coaches are dedicated and knowledgeable. They always prioritize safety and work with you towards achieving your fitness goals. The membership is mixed from individuals new to CrossFit to seasoned athletes making the atmosphere welcoming and inspiring. CrossFit Hartford is definitely worth checking out if you are looking to join a fitness community!

I have been going to CrossFit Hartford for 5 years now. I walked in on day one a person who was feeling really down and lost because my daughter had just been diagnosed with autism. I went to CrossFit hoping to learn how to be a little tough for my kid. I have gotten so much more than that out of the experience. First, the coaches are amazing. They do not look past poor movement. They notice it, and they correct it so you can avoid injury and get better. They also care about the whole person. They know when you need more or less and they really want their members to have a great experience that fits their needs. Second, the other members are incredible. These people have become my crew, the people I want to spend my time with. The community is so strong and so supportive of each other. You want to be surrounded by these people! Lastly, this place has helped me to get into amazing shape. I was a runner before and while I was fit, I wasn't strong like I am now and able to do what I can do. It all takes time, but with great coaching, progress happens in this place. You feel good about yourself, not just physically, but about who you become when you are a member of CrossFit Hartford. I highly recommend it.

I've been a runner for years. Never thought I needed CrossFit despite having horrible mobility and an ever-slowing pace. But a friend convinced me to give CrossFit Hartford a try after she achieved a huge PR in her last half marathon despite a dramatic decrease in her weekly mileage. That first workout was humbling, yet inspiring as the other members and coaches gathered round to cheer me on. It's that community combined with super talented owners/coaches and purposeful programming that keeps me coming back. The improvements I've made in my strength, mobility, flexibility and running during the past year have been incredible. I wish I would have started sooner! #9am4life
