Zanshin Fitness -CrossFit Affiliate

I travel a lot for business and always try to drop in a local box. The coaching at CF Zanshin was excellent, and the athletes were very welcoming. Great atmosphere in the box. I highly recommend dropping in, or giving it a visit if you’re local.

This has probably been the most consistent I ever been in working out. That is thanks to the amazing coaches and wonderful people I met here. Couldn't imagine starting my crossit anywhere else. Hard work and good conversation is all you need.

This gym was a home away from home. I dropped in here while on business for work. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly. Pete was great with communicating about the drop in process and the weekly rate was very affordable. I will definitely be coming back here when in Norcross.

Like most of the CrossFit owners, Pete at CrossFit Zanshin would give you the shirt off his back. (He also offered me a drink after a hard WOD.) What sets CrossFit Zanshin apart is the level of success the membership has achieved. Pete’s strength and cardio are unbelievable. He’s been in the Top 20 Worldwide for the CrossFit Games master’s division multiple years. CrossFit Zanshin also has numerous former college athletes with unparalleled cardio. They’ve got several 40++ athletes that can row a sub 7-minute 2k. There’s no ego or elitism to be found at CrossFit Zanshin. I’ve learned a lot about how to train and improve my motor (my weakness) thanks to suggestions and conversations with Pete and his athletes. CrossFit Zanshin is what CrossFit should be all about – health, community and humility. Whether you’re an elite athlete or just trying to get back in shape, this place is great!

I'm finishing my six week challenge this week and have obtained my set goals. I see the transformation and I feel fantastic. I would like to thank Pete, Karen and Ryan for being fantastic coaches to help me achieve these goals. I really enjoy working out with the morning group. This the best decision I made to join and I am definitely continuing my membership!

This place is great. The coaches want the best for their clients and provide excellent service. Fun place to work out and clear up my head.

I love this place, would spend all day here if I could. Pete is an amazing athlete and for early morning people, Rachael Wahl's Bootcamp classes will get it done for you.

Last October I joined this gym for a 6 week bootcamp.  I'd never heard of Crossfit before, but based on my friends' reactions, I was concerned that I'd made a mistake!  "OH- that's TOO difficult!  Are you SURE you want to do that?"  Before beginning the program they send you some suggested meal changes and a detox program.   I weighed nearly 160 when I began the program.  I lost over 5 pounds the first week of changing my diet before hitting the gym.  At this point I was visiting my chiropractor regularly with a weak and painful back.  After sticking with both their program and the Paleo diet through the end of the year my weight has dropped to 140 and my core strength has improved dramatically.  The weight change came about by removing bread, rice, pasta and almost all processed sugar.   I now eat much more lean protein than before.   My back is no longer bothering me and I've noticed an huge improvement in my balance.  Everyday I exercise my core muscles in some way; every time I bend over I tighten all my core muscles as taught to prevent injury.  I highly recommend their gym and wish that I could continue working out them.  Even when working out with a group I got focused, caring, and individualized training.  They considered my weaknesses and strengths in the alterations they made to my routine.  If my circumstances change so that I can return to their gym, I certainly will.  Pete Mongeau and Karen Escobar really care for their members like family, not just customers.   Thank you for your patience with me and setting me on a healthier path.  God bless you, your family and your business.

This is my third Crossfit gym since I've been doing Crossfit and I don't think I could go anywhere else. I wish I started at CFZ when I started CF because the basics and fundamentals are continuously reinforced in every class. No "sink-or-swim" mentality. You will not feel out of place or uncomfortable regardless of what your activity or athletic level. If you are serious about changing your lifestyle and develop healthy habits, Coach Pete and Coach Karen are the perfect mentors!

I just wanted to say thank you for the awesome workout last Tuesday. I was in town for business and dropped in for a class with David. He is an awesome coach and the athletes were super friendly and welcoming! As a chiropractor, I am always excited when I go to a CF box and see coaches who are great at teaching proper form and proper technique to keep the athletes from getting hurt. The coaches at Zanshin are excellent at teaching technique, so you can exercise without hurting yourself. I recommend visiting Crossfit Zanshin...I know I'll be back next time I am in town.
