CrossFit Surf City

Dropped in while on vacation. Coaches & members were very welcoming and did an awesome job leading the classes. Great experience.

Stopped in for the week on vacation. Very welcoming coaches and members. Worked with me as a beginner. Just wish they had 3xl/2xl T-shirt’s or bumper stickers to show off I was there!

When I started going, I just wanted to go work out. Owners of gym and nutrition club are going to try to sell you herbalife and pressure you into joining their "team." Stopped going because of that, and because schedule times of workouts became inconvenient & place is a little too far from where I live to be driving 2 to 3 times per week.

Operator Phil agreed to sell me rowing machine without telling me it was used in his business. When I ask if it still had life in it before leaving to pick it up, he upped the price $50 and said he had a competing buyer. Not honorable. Do business here at your own risk. Phil does not exercise morals at this gym.

Let’s start with all the NO’s that go along with Crossfit Surf City:Waiting for a machineListening to someone elses cell phone conversation (even if you didn’t want to)Listening to someone elses iPod (even if you didn’t want to)Having to ask to ‘work in’ because they have been using the only set of dumbells that weightWatching crappy TV (that no one seems to be able to change the channel w/o permission)Getting ‘training advice’ from someone who sits behind the counter playing Angry BirdsConstantly getting an upsell on your membership, or for training sessionsWondering if you did that workout correctlyHere are the YESSESAn hour long workout that will let you know you worked outCoaches who will treat you like an athlete (no matter what level that is)Individual coaching to make sure you are doing the moves correctlyFriends who are all in the workout togetherProfessional help from professional athletesInspiration every time you complete a workoutA per training session that is significantly less than if you were paying for the same sessions at another gym.The best Crossfit knowledge in Orange County (bar none)I should have followed through the first time I contacted Crossfit Surf City three + years ago. Not knowing these lists really kept me on the sidelines. Now that I’m there, I can’t imagine not being there. I’ve been to another regular gym (a NO list gym where I still have a membership--at least for this last month), and I realized just how much I hated that NO list, and just how much of a difference Crossfit Surf City has made

I have been going to Crossfit Surf City for a year now and couldn't imagine going anywhere else. The coaches are all extremely knowledgeable and they really care about every athletes progress. They are always willing to help out with movements, meal plans, and want to help you accomplish the goals you set for yourself. CFSC also provides different programs like BootCamp and my personal favorite the Stronger Than Yesterday program. The strength program is ran by Coach Vu who is extremely knowledgeable in weight lifting and really helps each person individually with their lifts. I also love that the community at CFSC has this family dynamic where everyone is so supportive of one another, whether you are new or been going there for years, it doesn't matter. I wouldn't let any family or friends who was looking into Crossfit go anywhere else but Surf City!

You won't find a better community of people than at CrossFit Surf City. The coaches are highly qualified, friendly and inspirational. The people who work out there are respectful. supportive and encouraging to all the athletes.People bad mouth crossfit as being dangerous. There are risks in all activities, but if you are coached and taught correctly from the start, the chances of injury is greatly reduced. I know at CrossFit Surf City, the coahes have everyone's safety as a priority. If you have ever considered trying CrossFit or if you are looking for a better box... This is it!!

Crossfit Surf City is a really great place to workout, meet new people and become a healthier person. The coaches really emphasize proper technique and are always willing to work with what you are capable of doing. The people who make up the CFSC community are top notch and the amount of support they provide each other is second to none. I recommend anyone who is looking to get into Crossfit in the HB area to give CFSC a try.

Great place, everyone here is down to earth. Coaches pay close attention to all athletes. Coaches are also very strict on form and mobility to prevent injuries. Been at this gym since it was in a garage. I'm in the best shape of my life thanks to this place. Have never had any seriouse injury thanks to the coaches. Its a very friendly gym, evryone gives the new athletes a warm and welcome feeling. This gym offers more than any typical CrossFit, beginner on-ramp program, strength program, indurance program, coaches hour (one on one) and plenty of information on nutrition. I highly recommend this gym to any athlete looking to improve or any person looking to get into fitness. This place has it all.

I was initially terrified to workout here. It's Crossfit after all! But once I joined, I felt safe and comfortable. Everyone from the coaches to the other members are friendly, welcoming, and supportive. It's a great environment where you will make progress in ways you never thought possible due to the coaches' knowledge and encouragement. And if you are scared or intimidated to join, take my word for it: you can do it and the staff will help you every step of the way. And don't let your age stop you. I almost didn't join because I thought I was too old (mid-forties), but I'm not. I may be a little slower than the young bucks but I definitely FEEL younger since joining Crossfit Surf City. It's a great place all the way around.
