CrossFit Renew

I love this place. Full stop. The coaches at Crossfit Renew facilitate an atmosphere that anchors on support and continuous personal development. In my experience, a lot of commercial gyms tend to feel performative, but this Crossfit box is a safe space that I hold dear.

No matter what your current fitness level is, or your familiarity with CrossFit you should check CrossFit Renew out and give them a shot, you will not regret it.There aren't enough good things I can say about Renew. I only lived in Austin for a year, but it's already one of the things I miss the most about the area. It will be the gold standard that I hold all future gyms to, and I don't think it'll be a fair fight.It's a nice space with plenty of well-maintained equipment for the class sizes. The programming is top-notch with an emphasis on cardio and gymnastics with a healthy amount of weight lifting thrown in as well. They put a huge emphasis on having scaling options available, serving everyone from competitive athletes, to college students, to people who can't (or won't) run a mile, to women who are very pregnant.The community is outstanding, from the first class we attended I felt welcome and encouraged by other members. I quickly got to know many of them well from class and other community events and they are among the folks I cherish most in Austin.And finally the coaches are beyond great. People who really know their stuff and are deeply invested in the members and the community. Extremely encouraging, but also able to give feedback and pointers to people who have been doing CrossFit for years.

This CrossFit gym is a model for what an affiliate should look like--or really any exercising community. As a larger-sized person, I do a great deal of research before joining any gym to ensure that it's a good fit. Different ages, body types, and abilities are all represented at this gym and the coaches do a fantastic job of meeting each athlete and adapting/challenging them to reach their own fitness goals. Beyond offering quality services in their fitness classes, weight training, and nutrition counseling--Renew also works hard to build a beautiful community. I did the "open" (a yearly CrossFit competition) for the first time with this crew because I had serious FOMO--I wanted to join in because the connections with people are real and the encouragement you find in their midst makes you want to participate!! If you're looking for a new workout routine, a CF community, or a place to drop in--pick Renew, you won't be disappointed!!

Renew is a place that I know I can confidently go into and feel genuinely seen by the coaches, whether it's asking how my day's going or knowing my goals and helping me get there. I feel truly coached by the coaches in a way that pushes me but also keeps in mind form correction or any scaling that may need to happen. I just went through their Rebuild program (pregnancy and postpartum) and worked one on one with a coach to progress me to my fitness goals in a safe manner. The coach thoughtfully wrote out the programming with my fitness goals in mind. Because of her I was able to go back into group classes feeling much more confident and knowledgable in movement than I did 6 weeks prior. I can't say enough about this place and their community!

I have been apart of this community for well over 10 years, and I can say without any hesitation that these people care. They care about me, my family and my health. The nutrition coaching is the most realistic and practically nutrition coaching I have ever had. As someone who has been a serial dieter since the age of 12 ( yikes ) and has been swept into every “loose 10lbs quick” scam, its refreshing to have someone look at my life and my goals and just give me healthy and practically tools to make better choices. Not because they number on the scale should go down, but because its what’s the best for my health. I have moved into personal training with CrossFit renew in the last few years, and at almost 43 years old, I am the strongest I have ever been. And, thanks to the coaching, I don't hurt myself. Thanks for always being great Renew!

Absolutely love this place, especially the people! When people talk about community in CrossFit there is no other gym that shows up like this gym. I moved to the other side of town and still go to class twice a week, even with a newborn at home. The pregnancy/postpartum program was a great experience for me to stay connected with my fitness even with my life and identity changing entirely. No matter who you are or what place your in with your body, the coaches work with you constantly to make sure you are comfortable, scaled appropriately and have the right form for movements so they are the most effective. I can’t speak highly enough about this gym. Come try them out at Saturday community WOD @ 9am. I know I’ll be there! :)

I have only great things to say about this gym and community!!! From the first time I walked in the doors I immediately felt welcome and a part of this amazing fit family!! Before I moved to Austin I was a member of an amazing gym and I knew that when I moved I wanted to find a fitness community!! This gym is amazing!! All of the coaches put so much heart into what they do and I love how they focus on each member as an individual and working towards our goals but also as a community! Moving to a new city where I didn’t know anyone was very hard especially moving right before Covid hit, which made it difficult to meet people and make friends as well as focus on physical and mental health! The friends I made and the support from Renew is what got me through Covid and I love this gym so much! Thank Renew!!!

I was slightly nervous for my first CrossFit workout, I attended during ‘Bring A Friend Week’. Coach McKenzie was extremely knowledgeable and helpful on cues! I had no reason to be nervous as it was a very welcoming & uplifting atmosphere, I will be attending again!

I have been with RENEW for about 8 months and counting. I am glad I found this gym and signed up. Everyone is super friendly, the coaches are helpful and very knowledgeable, and there's good vibes at this box. If you are looking to invest in yourself and renew your health check out RENEW CrossFit.

CrossFit Renew is such an amazing place to get fit, find community, and make amazing friends. The coaches are some of the best I’ve had in the crossfit world. Go check them out. You won’t regret it!
