CrossFit South Hills

CrossFit South Hills is my home away from home! All the coaches are very knowledgeable and the owners create a program that anyone can do. The workouts are scalable to anyone. You don’t have to be an avid CrossFit athlete to join. Everyone here is welcoming and friendly! I completely recommend CFSH if you are considering trying CrossFit and need a great environment.

Have been a member of CFSH for almost 2 years...The coaches are great. Can always leave a class having gotten feedback on my performance - both positive and constructive. If you enjoy challenging yourself and being surrounded by a group of tenacious individuals, you will love being a member here!

My box forever! Variety of class times, special events for the whole family and girls nights, great space for exercising in general. Even though I’ve been working out for years, taking CrossFit with the knowledgeable coaches and awesome classmates has gotten me into the best shape of my life, in my 30’s. Now i’m navigating my first pregnancy there with lots of love & support, in hopes of keeping me and baby as healthy as possible! Never plan on belonging anywhere else ❤️

I had been considering CrossFit for some time, but as a 53 year old had concerns if it was the right program for me. I wanted to improve my general fitness, as well as loose 30+ lbs that had crept up on me over the past 5 years or so.

After my wife and son encouraged me to give it a try, I booked a consultation at CrossFit South Hills in July 2018 with one of the owners, Nicole Voelzke, who took the time to understand my goals in joining, as well as my workout history, diet and scheduling needs.

The initial program included an on-ramp set of workouts to teach the basics and assess a baseline fitness level. I chose to continue private training sessions after the first three classes, and Nicole developed a customized program, as well as provided guidance on nutrition and diet.

In the span of 6 months, I’ve lost 35lbs and have had consistent improvements in strength, cardio, and mobility. The workouts are appropriately difficult and intense, designed to push you to improve, but also built around your specific capabilities and any limitations you may have. There is a constant assessment of how your body is responding to the training, and an effort to ensure you don’t overwork or injure yourself.
In fact, all of the coaches are aware of the members strengths and weaknesses, and encourage managing the workouts to get the maximum positive effect without overworking or injury.

Additionally, the community of members at CrossFit South Hills is one of the best groups I’ve experienced in a gym environment. Everyone is very welcoming and made me feel comfortable very quickly. Any doubts I had prior to joining evaporated almost immediately.

If you live in the South Hills and are looking for a great group of people you can accomplish your fitness goals with, CFSH is top notch.

I became a member of CrossFit South Hills in August of 2016 and I am so happy I made the decision to join. I was intimidated at first, but I quickly learned that CFSH is the most amazing community of people where, regardless of your fitness level or age, you feel welcomed and encouraged. The workouts are challenging but are never boring (they change every day). In only a few months, my body has become stronger and leaner and I have developed a mental fortitude that I never realized I could possess. The owners Mike and Nicole are incredibly knowledgeable, helpful, encouraging and, as an added bonus, they are really fun to be around! As a lifelong athlete, I can honestly say that my time as a member of CFSH has been one of the most rewarding experiences and I look forward to learning what else I am capable of doing!
