Ruth, Sean, and Matt are incredibly welcoming, inclusive, knowledgeable, and motivating coaches and have created a positive and community-based environment here. Intrepid is an excellent place to improve your overall fitness. The gym is also very well-equipped with things like Atlas stones, Olympic lifting equipment, kettlebells, sandbags, rowing machines, assault bikes, bumper plates, sleds, boxes, etc.

I have been at Intrepid for over three years and I'm still in awe of the thoughtful coaching, internal community building, and fun workouts they craft. EVERY SINGLE COACH is wonderful, and brings a unique skillset and individualized way that they work with their athletes. I have never felt more included nor had a more consistent routine than at Intrepid. Thank you for all of the years of fitness and fun!

I traveled to Portland recently and worked out here. Sean was welcoming and an extremely knowledgeable and professional coach. The whole vibe was very friendly and I enjoyed the challenging workouts! If I lived in Portland, this would be my gym!

We live nearby and love the community vibe of this gym. The owners are super nice, too! We work with Sean and he is excellent about meeting us where we are while challenging us to level up. Great place, great people!

Sean, Ruth and Matt have build an amazing community of open, respectful and fun individuals that value diversity and inclusion.Their number one priority is the safety and well-being of athletes, focusing and obsessing over the getting right movement and technique down.The programming is well thought out with an overall long term focus. The workouts can be tailored to different levels and are challenging.A real life changer for me personally.❤️

I have been an Intrepid PDX member for over 3 years now and happy to call this gym home. Recently, I moved (what I thought was) too far away to keep coming to Intrepid and joined another gym closer to my house. Within a month, I was missing Ruth, Sean, Matt and the whole vibe of the gym so much that I HAD to come back. Best decision ever!The instruction, inclusiveness and care these coaches share with everyone is better than you'd ever see at the typical x-fit gym. If you're just down the street on MLK, or waaaaay across town, it is WORTH it to come these coaches in action. There is Strongperson, Olympic weightlifting, and traditional x-fit programmed workouts. There is something for any and every one, no matter what skill level. The coaches genuinely care about YOU.No pressure, no hype, no BS...just a good, hard fun workout that gets results. The WODs at Intrepid PDX are the best stress relief, especially during what seems to be the craziest year to date. If you're looking for a small, close-knit, family-owned gym, Intrepid PDX is the place to be. Highly recommended for community fitness!
