CrossFit Reflexion

The coaches here know how to challenge you. I have been doing CrossFit for 2.5 years and only after I joined Reflexion I saw how much better I could be just by seeing their work and investment in their members. After visiting and competing in many gyms around the area, I highly recommend making CrossFit Reflexion your home.

This program is the best!!! I have tried several other crossfit gyms in the area and felt that Crossfit Reflexion was the best fit for me. I first tried Crossfit a couple years ago when it had just started in Eugene while visiting a friend. Since that time it has spread to all parts of the world and is one of the most talked about fitness regimens. I found the need for a challenging workout that can push me as I progress to my personal goals. It has a great team of fitness members at all different levels from the beginner to the elite athletes. The program allows you to progress at your own level and pace with attainable goals in both fitness and nutrition. It has great coaches who have pushed me when I have needed it and aren’t afraid to tell me to take it easier when necessary. It is one of the only places that my daughter can and wants to workout side by side with me. Whether you are looking for long term or short term goals this program has given me immediate results that I can see daily/weekly to help to motivate me.

When I first got a taste of CrossFit at a non-affiliated gym I fell in love right away with the variety of workouts and wide spectrum of movements. After relocating to a different city, I found Reflexion and all those movements I had learned previously improved so quickly. They teach proper form, technique, nutrition and with the combination of a well planned strength and conditioning program there's no way you won't improve immensely towards whatever your goal is from whatever level you start at here. The genuine people and friendly competition is just the cherry on top.

CrossFit Reflexion is great!Reflexion is a unique place where the only thing that matters is that we are growing and advancing; not that we arrive at some arbitrary strength. The culture that the coaches have created with their clients is incredibly supportive and infectious! Each client is mentored and taught how to improve and grow. Each and every relationship is important to them.PRs are not just for bravado, they are a result of careful, consistent, thoughtful, mature and responsible coaching and programming.

Before I joined Crossfit Reflexion, I was completely out of shape and fitness. One of my friend referred me to this gym, what I now prefer to call as home for fitness. I was very skeptical about the program initially, if I could cope up with it, as I still remember gasping for breath on day one. But Gurus/Coaches here at Crossfit Reflexion proved me wrong. With proper training tailored to my abilities (being a beginner to Crossfit), along with the systematic approach and technique, helped me regain fitness and make me leaner. With this intelligent program, Coach Shawn put together a complete nutrition plan, which made a lot of difference. I have never felt active and fit in my life before. Thanks to coaches Shawn, Jesse and Erik. The atmosphere here is amazing, every one of them in this community inspire & motivate you, making you a better athlete working towards your goal. I will truly recommend this community. Come and experience the program, you will see the results that will speak of itself.

The coaching and knowledge of the coaches at Crossfit Reflexion is first class. The program is well put together and will make you meet your goals no matter what fitness level you are currently at. Shawn and Jesse will get you ready for whatever crossfit throws at you, from gymnastics to Olympic lifting. Swing by and experience the awesomeness!

I am beyond excited to call CrossFit Reflexion my home. I started CrossFit almost 2 years ago but decided to take it a little more seriously about 6 months ago. I started with just the Wednesday night Oly class with Coach J and decided to make a permanent move. The coaching is superb with great attention to detail, the programming is comprehensive, and the community is warm and welcoming. Since making the move to CrossFit Reflexion my technique is better, I'm much stronger, and I'm an overall smarter athlete. Thank you CrossFit Reflexion!

I started at Crossfit Reflexion with no real idea on what crossfit really was, I had about 2 years of normal gym time before switching to crossfit, which comprised the normal gym routine, show up lift heavy for a few hours and go home. When I switched to crossfit I was attracted by the functional fitness and the fact that every one who was actively pursuing crossfit were in such great shape. When I started I didn't know how to complete olympic lifts or how to do most of the exercises that are required in crossfit and that bugged me because i felt like I was in good shape but I was being lapped by everyone at the gym. At crossfit reflexion the instructors were awesome, they would greet everyone by name every time they walked in and made sure even the newest members felt welcomed. The instructors were also very knowledgeable in how to lift properly and get the most out of every class. After 1 month of training with the help of the awesome instructors my fitness level changed for the better and I noticed that I had better lifting techniques and my cardio and endurance level had gone up. Being active duty Coast Guard I received orders to transfer across country, although excited I was having such a great time at that gym and interacting with all the students and instructors that I was sad to leave. But everything that I learned at Crossfit Reflexion I have and will continue to use in my crossfit future and I would highly suggest to anyone interested in looking at crossfit in the portland area to stop by Reflexion and give them a try they really know how to make you feel welcomed and they know how to teach crossfit so that it is understandable and fun.

I joined the Reflexion Barbell Club several months ago, and have been working with Coach Jesse specifically on Olympic weightlifting since then. Jesse has great knowledge of the sport, having competed in it since he was young. Getting guidance from a nationally competitive weightlifter has been an invaluable experience. In addition to his own experience, Jesse regularly communicates with globally recognized weightlifting experts (like Coach Wu Chuanfu) and draws on their knowledge to deepen his own and to supplement his coaching techniques, and it really shows in his daily interactions with his lifters. That dedication and understanding helps him to provide specific guidance to each lifter, and to tailor programming to meet each lifter's needs. Since I have been at Reflexion Jesse has helped me to undo years of bad habits that I accumulated lifting elsewhere and on my own, making my lifting style more balanced, stable and smooth. That movement efficiency has translated to greater speed, which has led to increased weight on the bar.Having an experienced weightlifting coach watching your daily sessions (which Jesse does - every session) helps you to develop quickly and increases your confidence when you step up to the bar. I highly recommend the Reflexion Barbell Club to anyone who wants to improve their lifts, regardless of their starting skill level. Jesse can help everyone, from beginners to advanced lifters.

Update: Almost 1 year later and what I wrote below is even more true today! I am stronger, more athletic and have a greater capacity to understand what it means to be physically fit. Sure, I put in the time and the work (you have to), but never in my life have I seen these kind of results. Not only in myself but in all of my fellow crossfiters/ Oly lifters around me. I have been and I am still am coached in a professional manner, that is safe, educational and fun. Come drop in for your free week, you will be glad you did.Crossfit Reflexion is the total package for anyone who would like to become fit, loose weight, look good, feel good and have a great time while getting into the best shape of your life. The coaches/ trainers go above and beyond, helping you achieve what ever goals you set for yourself. Coach Shawn Wilson (owner/ trainer) has helped me with a proper diet tailored for me, answering my questions on diet and helping me to help myself into a better understanding of how to make my diet work for me. Combine proper nutrition with intelligent programed workouts and you will get the results that I have gotten while at CFR. A lighter, leaner and more fit (48 year old) athlete.From the time I walked into Reflexion to take the Olympic Lifting class and met Coach Jesse Udom (owner/ trainer) I have not stopped learning about proper form and movement while lifting weights. I had not done a lot of lifting before working with Coach Jesse, to my surprise I really liked the class and now I am comfortable, confident and safe while lifting. Using the tools and skills taught to me I look forward to doing the WOD's at CFR.If you are considering doing Crossfit you owe it to yourself to come into Crossfit Reflection and talk with anyone of the coaches or members there, come and try out their free 1 week trial! It may just change your life for the better, as it has changed mine. Read on Crossfit Reflections home page about who they are, what they believe and why they do this.What I am most impressed with is the warmth and character of all the coaching staff and members. There is truly a great vibe and atmosphere going on, encouragement and positive words of instruction as you workout. Each day that I go into CFR I learn and grow from the teaching/ instruction that I receive. I am very grateful to be working out at one of the Northwest premier crossfit gyms with so many wonderful people around me.
