Defined Training

What a great place to really get to know your body! CrossFit Defined - completely different feel than any crossfit gym I had experience with. From the moment you step into the facility you are treated like family!Everyone is super knowledgeable and coaches focus on each student individually! THANK YOU DEFINED!!

Dropped in to get an Open workout while I was visiting Chicago with some buddies. Really impressed with this gym. It exuded positive energy as soon as we walked in, with lots of people warming up for class and many other working out. They maximize every inch of the gym space in a way that is efficient and effective but not cramped. I think we had at least 4 coaches check in with us. All very friendly, very professional. They let us do 20.2 in a private corner of the gym while other classes were going on and even came over for some coaching and pointers. And 20.2 was fun-thanks for fitting us in David and the rest of the team! Really helps to maintain an active lifestyle when there are great gyms that open their doors!

There’s no other gym in Chicago with this much to offer dovetailed with the expertise to back it up. Want to do CrossFit, they got it. Want to do Powerlifting, they got it. Olympic Lifting, Strongman, Endurance training, got them too. The only thing that supersedes the heights you can achieve in your training is how much fun you’ll have with the community.

Really a great box. Be aware when you plan to do a class there - you may want to stay much longer than the time of a class.It’s definitely more than a gym. Doesn’t matter who you are or what fitness experience you have if any. I recently moved to Chicago and I’m enjoying every minute at Defined 😊

Chicago really started to feel like home after joining Defined. The coaches, the people, the community, the engagement, the workouts, the facility - truly all second to none. I cannot recommend highly enough.

An amazing group of coaches. I’ve been at several CrossFit gyms in the city and not only are they the best coaches, they also make everyone feel comfortable and confident in themselves. Can’t thank these fantastic people enough.

CrossFit Defined isn’t like any other gym. To say that it’s just a gym would be a lie. CFD is community/family. I walked in thinking I would be surrounded by these intense athletes, but it is the complete opposite. CFD is a diverse group of people who all share the same mentality of not only wanting to better themselves but better everyone around them. If you have every been a part of team, whether it’s sports team, scholastic team, group project, etc, that same mentality runs through the gym. Each class brings in a high energy of positivity of wanting to push each other to be the best version of yourself.The Coaches at CFD want each person to walk in and bring the mentality of “How are you going to improve yourself today and how can WE get you there?” The Coaches don’t treat their members as random people coming in to work out; they get to know each individual on a personal level and work with you to understand what you want out of each workout. They work with you every class and push you to go further because they know you have it within yourself to do so. It’s also not just the Coaches that will help you, but the other members as well. My first class, my form was completely wrong and multiple people came to help me because they know what it’s like to be in my shoes. They encouraged me every step of the way, even to the last minute of class. They were the most positive group of individuals and brought so much confidence within me, that it only made me want to improve myself more.Being a part of CFD isn’t just at the gym, but it translates into your daily life as well. I have made so many great friends from working out there and a mentality that reflects to who I am as a person/professional. You will see how your mentality changes into someone with confidence and is willing to go the extra mile because you know that it’s not only yourself you’re supporting but those around you as well.While you have to bring yourself physically to the gym every class, there is a group of people right behind you pushing you to the finish line. Join CFD and you won’t just be part of a gym, but you will join a family as well.

Joining a CrossFit gym was definitely out of my comfor zone, but I couldn't be happier with CrossFit Defined! ALL of the coaches are so helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable, and make you feel like have known them for years. I highly recommend CFD to anyone looking to challenge themselves both physically and mentally.

I can’t begin to put in to words what the entire Defined staff, and the Defined community as a whole have meant to me for the past few years. While I know the coaches don’t do what they do for the gratitude, I feel it is very much owed. I have an infinitely better grasp on my physical and mental capabilities and limitations now because they taught me to be a student of my own body and mind. I hope that others can be touched the way I have by the compassion, attentiveness, patience, and straight-up badassery that the coaching staff brings to the gym every day. #liftlocal

CrossFit Defined is by far the best CrossFit box and community I have ever been a part of. Over the span of three years, the coaching staff and community of athletes helped me grow athletically, in strength, and all around as a better person. After relocating to another state, I still drop in here every time I’m in Chicago and it still feels like home. As an athlete and as a person you are the average of those people you train with, and if you train at CFD, it’s impossible to not improve on anything that matters to you. Thank you, CFD family, hope to see you soon.
