Ben Lomond CrossFit

My first experience with CrossFit was today at Ben Lomond CrossFit. The energy for the class was incredible. The instructor was encouraging, motivating, and knowledgeable. Not the stereotype I had been warned about for years. Amazing experience. Give it a try!

What an amazing gym! Such a fantastic culture with engaged coaches, nice equipment, and friendly people to work out with. I love that they modify any workout to cater to what you can do. Best decision to walk in and try it out. ❤️

Absolutely fantastic gym. I was wanting to do CrossFit for a summer, so I signed up for multiple gyms to see which one I would like best. Went one time to Ben Lomond CrossFit and I knew within the first 15 minutes that these people have it down! So I didn’t even try other gyms. I come from a background of collegiate-running so I have a great understanding of movement and exercise and I can confidently say these coaches know what they are doing, and they are extremely encouraging! See ya year Ben Lomond CrossFit!

I feel compelled to tell my personal story and address a few negative comments regarding BLCF.I started going to Ben Lomond Crossfit (BLCF) in January. After my divorce, I needed a place to belong, a place to push myself, and a place of safety and peace. This gym became all of that for me. I had tried other types of gyms over the years: traditional gyms, class-based HIIT gyms, etc. but never really felt motivated to come back every day. BLCF was my first experience doing Crossfit, and I will say, it has changed my life.The members and the coaches are fantastic. I immediately felt like I was a part of a family. They made me feel like I belonged; even though I didn’t know what the hell I was doing. I felt encouraged, supported and most importantly: motivated. I have gotten stronger and I am so proud of the progress I’ve made in the last 9 months. I still have a ways to go, but instead of focusing on superficial goals like losing 10lbs, or fitting into a size 2, my motivators are to put 10 more lbs on the bar. To get double-unders. To master a handstand. My goal now is to push myself to be better and stronger than the day before.This gym has been a beacon of light and a safe place for me. It’s stable, welcoming and accepting. Every wod: I know that we are all in this together, and there’s a special bond when people do hard things together. It is palpable. Yes, just like all families there can be some scuffle and drama now and again, but we always find our way back to neutral. In one of the reviews it really surprised me that someone trying this gym would feel “weird.” Members and coaches here are warm and inclusive. I am sorry this person felt uncomfortable.Every single person on the coaching staff is knowledgeable and helpful. It was stated in another review that all they do is read off the Wodify app; I disagree. Yes, they do explain the workout utilizing the Wodify app, but they do so much more. They demonstrate the exercises, create drills to build you up to complex lifting movements, monitor the class, offer pointers to those needing adjustment, and push the hell out of us. Every. Day. And On-time. Do we have a great time and “BS”? absolutely. But we work hard and play hard.You’d think after laying on your back after a workout, gasping for breath, you’d never want to come back, but it’s the complete opposite. I can’t wait to go every day. And the biggest motivation of that is the people. Thank you BLCF, you have given me a family and a home. 😊I highly recommend this gym.

I've been a member of Ben Lomond Crossfit for just over a year. My wife and I always look forward to getting a great workout and have found some amazing friends in the process.The coaches have always been welcoming and very helpful to us. In the past I found it difficult to stick with any fitness program for more than a couple months but at Ben Lomond Crossfit I am consistently challenged and motivated to improve.Thanks to Ben Lomond Crossfit my family is living a healthier and more active life.

I have given this gym two decent tries under both new and old management. When I heard they had new management I gave them another try.This is a gym primarily for hanging out and has a core group that is always there. Makes it weird for new members.Coaching: bad to comically bad. Some workouts just consist of them reading wodify from the monitors. The coaches may be good at working out but they're not good at teaching. This applies to 5:30/6 PM.. may not be all coaches.Workouts start late because everyone is standing around bsing. I can't do that! I need to be done and get out.Focus is on the complex big lifts so you get a lot of snatches and jerks.Pricing is typically CrossFit but I don't feel you're getting a good deal with this gym.I don't recommend this gym.

I love Ben Lomond Crossfit! I was so scared to walk in my first day, but the coaches and the members quickly made me feel like best friends! I look forward to going every morning...for two reasons.... I feel GREAT when I am done with the workout and feel like I can handle anything that comes my way for the day.... AND.... I love how everyone there always has a kind word to say that helps me stay motivated towards my goals. It honestly makes my whole day to hear good things. =)I also love the coaches here. They are so knowledgeable and make me feel like I can do anything!!! It's a great way to start my day!!

Let me tell you about this gym....It is simply amazing and I couldn’t love a gym more.I recently moved here from New Jersey with my family. I have been doing CrossFit for about 4 years and this would be my second CrossFit gym. If you know CrossFit you know that the gym becomes like your second home and the people there become your family (if you have a good gym). So it’s easy to say I was wicked skeptical about joining a new gym and being the “new guy” again and having to build those friendships all over.At Ben Lomond they seriously welcomed me and my family with open arms! I couldn’t have felt more at home as quickly as I did with the members, coaches and owners of Ben Lomond. The gym is where I go to relax and unwind and get a good workout in. Not only do I get to do that, but I’ve also made some great connections with amazing people who I consider my best friends or even family. I’ve only been at the gym for a short 6 months but I honestly feel like I’ve been apart of it for even longer.Everyone is so friendly and out going and welcoming. If you’re in North Ogden area and want to swing by and try out this place I suggest you do it because you won’t regret it. Go in with an open mind and jus have fun and you’ll make some awesome friends along the way!

I've been a member for almost four years, great community here, great coaches and great environment. This is gym, where EVERYONE fits in! Come play with us! Blaine Larsen

This review is hard to post because Benlomond Crossfit used to be my second home, my happy place for 5 years. Under new management it slowly became a toxic social environment I didn't want to be a part of. I canceled my membership because I felt bullied, unheard, and even publicly humiliated by a trainer in front of other trainers, members and friends. I genuinely feel like I've been chased away from my happy place. Had anyone from management reached out to me concerning my experience and issues I would have not felt the need to write this review.
