don’t be scared bc it says cross-fit! that was my number one hang up and i’m sooo glad i talked with the owners before deciding whether to go here or not. i started at this gym pregnant and ali has coached me through my pregnancy and postpartum in the moms who move class which is SO supportive and non-competitive. the focus is always helping each individual get stronger and more mobile and i stayed very mobile during my entire pregnancy and beyond thanks to this gym!! they do all their own programming and tailor the exercises to your individual needs. i searched all over athens for a moms class and this is by far the very best one.

I can’t say enough GREAT things about this gym! I go to the Moms that Move class 3 days a week and I ALWAYS look forward to it! My kids love going and are happy while I work out which makes it even more enjoyable. The owners, Ali and Brent are hands on in and out of the gym! They literally care about you and your health as a person! Ali leads the Moms that Move class and she will structure your workout to your personal needs, she will cheer you on, help motivate you, push you to be your best and increase your confidence! You will SEE and FEEL results and you will feel stronger as well as empowered after just one class! The gym and people are inviting and not intimating at all! The support you get is in a league of its own. I’ve worked out my entire adult life and never experienced anything like this! Ali specializes in pregnancy and postpartum but they aren’t limited to anything. They have classes for everyone, kids, adults, seniors, special needs, moms, college students and everyone! If you just want to feel better for whatever reason I URGE you to give CrossFit Georgia Strength a try, I can promise that you will never regret it!

Was in town for a wedding , and dropped in for a few sessions. Brent and his team were awesome: super welcoming , helpful , and knowledgeable. The programming was fun as hell, but also challenging. You can be any level athlete from beginner to advanced and have an awesome experience. Everyone there was super nice too - can’t say enough good things and hope more friends have weddings in Athens so I can get back to GS

Currently I’m working out in the Moms Who Move class and LOVE IT! Ali is certified in pre and post natal fitness and does a fantastic job programming our workouts and modifying for each person as needed. Having a childcare option on site is also key for this momma to make it to the class. The coaching here is worth the money!

The coaching sets this place apart from the rest, and there's never a lack of equipment for a wide variety of workouts a any level. Couldn't ask for a better gym
