Absolutely love this gym. As a student I feel so comfortable and it’s so affordable. Terry is so amazing at demonstrating every single movement and Jon is so caring about his people. If you are new to CrossFit please join. I moved from orange theory to swamp city Fittnes and I feel more confident already. I love it here!

Fantastic gym! My husband and I were in Gainesville for the summer and Swamp City became a huge part of our life. First off, the people are wonderful: Jon was welcoming from the get-go and tolerated our wacky open-gym workouts. And the members are super friendly, no feeling of having to break the ice. In terms of the space, the gym has everything you need plus a few perks including a great 600m running track and all the strongman equipment you could ever need if that's your thing. And finally, the flexible hours cannot be beat. Thanks to the Swamp City crew for welcoming us with open arms and improving our fitness this summer!

I am a professional athlete, so where I train is EXTREMELY important to me. Swamp City has provided me with a more well equipped facility unlike anything I have come across in Florida, and nearly in the entire US. They have everything I need for open gym - every strongman implement and multiples of the implements, calibrated plates, every specialty bar under the sun from the bandbell bamboo bar to safety squat bars, neutral grip, whatever I need to train.They offer a ton of different classes too - which is nice because they are not only super motivating to them but they also help me feed off their motivation from the other members and coaches. All around I truly love Swamp City and would not wanna be anywhere else.

When I moved to Gainesville I wanted to find a gym that had a strong sense of community and SCF has just that. The coaches have taught me so much in a short amount of time and have celebrated each PR with me and motivate me to come each day. They are patient and willing to teach to which is exactly what I needed. I highly recommend SCF!

I recently moved to Gainesville and looked for a CrossFit/Olympic weightlifting gym for a few weeks before deciding. I chose SCF because I immediately felt included. The gym is clean and spacious, and the class times worked best for me. I absolutely recommend SCF!

I was a bit insane when I decided to start crossfit at age 54...never done it in my life! A wonderful lady- karen - encouraged me to try it so I did. This gym has the most amazing group of coaches. I am now 56, had surgery last year and stopped for 10mths and then finally came back in 2/2022 and, except for my own recovery and re-strengthening, I felt like i never left. Coach even texted me a few times while I was down to see how recovery was going. I love this gym! I love the Coach( than you John for all your patience), and my health is going in a wonderful direction! I have never experienced this in any gym before. Thank you!

Swamp City Fitness is an amazing CrossFit gym! The coaches are attentive to your needs whether you’re a beginner or have been working out for awhile. Easy access to equipment and the workouts are always motivating and fun! Classes are convenient in the morning or after work.

This is home to me. Jon is a passionate coach and wants to see his members get the results they are after. Gaby programs some tough workouts, but they are scalable and trackable. You get to see your improvements. Kyle is a great Olympic Weightlifting coach. The gym has something for everyone. It's not a typical gym and that's why I love it!

Swamp City Fitness has been an amazing experience. The classes are challenging yet fun. The coaches take pride in what they do, and not only motivate you but celebrate your successes along the way. Unlike some gyms this one will also slow down a bit and spend added time to not only show you best practices and techniques but also show that they genuinely care about your personal goals no matter where you're at on your fitness journey. I personally love the 8 garage doors that can open up and allow the outdoors in. For me this is an important feature as I love to be outdoors as much as possible!When you join Swamp City Fitness you will not only reach your fitness goals you will be treated like family while doing it.
