CrossFit Chichester

I have just completed my 6 week CrossFit challenge and the decision to continue with CrossFit Chichester was a no-brainer. As someone who has been a reluctant (yo-yo)exerciser for decades, apart from the obvious health benefits, I have been impressed by:* Instructors who are able to gauge specific needs of the individual which enable an emphasis on safety yet achieving personal improvement* Individual attention with the benefit of working out with a motivated group which is never too large or anonymous to lose the sense that everyone matters and is catered for* A holistic approach to exercise, diet and all aspects of wellbeing - with guidance readily available* An organisation that is run with optimal efficiency without losing the personal touch of valuing every clientI look forward to continuing my journeyThanks everyone!Sam

Having joined CFC 6 weeks ago as a last resort at losing weight and getting fit I have to say this has been life changing .Never have I experienced working out like this and although it is really hard work ,for the first time I love exercise .Having finished the first 6 weeks and losing a stone I have now joined as a member to continue my journey getting fit and strong . The trainers are amazing as are the other members no matter what level you are at .Not once did I feel out of place even when I was a complete beginner .I have already started to see my body shape change ! I would highly recommend CFC no matter what age or fitness level .

Joining Crossfit in Chichester was the best thing I have done for myself for a long time. My life always feels very busy as the mother of a toddler and as a nurse doing long shifts. In the last few years this hasn't left me much time or space for self-care.However, signing up to the six-week challenge has given me the motivational push that I have needed to eat well and work out three times a week. In the first six weeks I've lost almost a stone and reduced my body fat by 8%. I feel more comfortable in my clothes, I've got more energy and my skin is so much better. I can even see the beginning of some abs!I really enjoy the classes as they are scaled so that everybody is putting in the same amount of effort, no matter your ability. I am a complete novice to strength work and weight lifting but I have always felt supported by the trainers and this has increased by confidence. There is a good atmosphere in the gym and everybody has been really welcoming and kind. I would highly recommend joining this gym if you are looking to make a change and to take charge of your own health and well being.

I've been training independently for 2 years and hit a bit of a blocker, so decided to try a local gym that specialised in more weight training and calisthenics. I've been with CrossFit Chi for 7 weeks now (nearly 8) and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.There's a great variety of coaches to work with and get to know, each offering a new perspective and insight that helps you better your form, focus and capabilities.This is a real opportunity to offer yourself a lifestyle change alongside more focused exercise that works for you. Also, you'll meet some really cracking people to train with.

Archie and his team absolutely rock. Six months in and the results are insanely good. 8kgs dropped, despite adding a fair bit of muscle. Back and hip problems are no more, as the team have carefully guided me to be so much stronger and better balanced than I was before when all I was doing was a lot of running. Genuinely feel all round the fittest I have been since my early twenties (and I’m now 47).Also just a lovely crew of people to work out with every morning - the CrossFit Chichester community are top notch folks and really welcoming and friendly.

6 Wk Challenge Done :) I never thought I could lose 6kg in 6wks and feel so much stronger, fitter, healthier & confident. This is next level fitness that will transform your body and get you on the right track for a healthy lifestyle. A big thanks to superstars Archie and Lydia for all the motivation & support and to the awesome coaches Derren & Benji who have helped build my fitness journey safely and with enthusiasm every workout session. CrossFit Chichester is a warm, welcoming group of friendly coaches and members. I highly recommend this gym for anyone wanting to improve their health & fitness.

I joined CrossFit Chichester after it was highly recommended by a member and having read all the fantastic reviews, I began their 6 week challenge. Archie and his team helped me with my meal plan and supported me in their classes. To say I’ve been blown away by their support, kindness and knowledge is an understatement. I’ve not only lost weight and dropped body fat but have more energy, less anxiety and I feel amazing. I’ve met some fabulous members who make you feel so welcome and at home, the CrossFit community is super supportive, friendly and motivating. The classes are designed to allow you to reach your goals whilst being coached to an extremely high level. I have never worked this hard in a gym on my own. Thank you CrossFit!!! I’m excited to continue my journey with you and know you will help me reach all my goals!!

I was a little apprehensive about joining a CrossFit gym because I feared the exercise would be too intense for me. I needn't have worried. Each class is structured such that you can work to the best of your abilities, and scale intensity as desired. This means it's suitable for those completely new to exercise, as well as the super competitive types. Membership ages range from teenagers to those in their 70s.Having done no serious exercise for more than a decade, I am far stronger after two months than I ever could have imagined. My arms and legs are more toned, stomach flatter, clothes are looser and my cardiovascular fitness has improved dramatically. It has been very heartening to start using new holes on my belt. I have a long standing injury but am able to work around it and still improve my strength and fitness.The gym is a great size, and well equipped with everything you could need in terms of free weights, racks/rigs and cardiovascular machines. There are also hot showers, as well as free parking on site.The gym has a definite family feel; indeed you are welcome to bring your children, dog, favourite aunt etc. Lydia and Archie organise fun social events, and there are lively WhatsApp chat groups to help you stay motivated. You're guaranteed to lose body fat, gain muscle, and leave with a smile on your face (once you've regained your breath and picked yourself off the floor!)
