Best Crossfit Gym near Houston, Texas

Enjoyed dropping in for a quick fix and the coaches were great so we're the athletes will return when I come back to Houston

I wasn't sure what to expect when I signed up. I've never done anything like this before! Honestly....Bryan, his crew and EVERY SINGLE MEMBER I have met there are friggin awesome!! Everyone there is focused, friendly and helpful. I'm very happy to be included in this program. The equipment is awesome! No joke.....It's tough but rewarding. I can't recommend this place enough. I love it!

I really enjoy the friendly atmosphere and the coach's professionalism. They are willing to help me with my form and break it down so that I can understand. If you are new to CrossFit, this gym is great! They actually take the time to stretch!!! YES

Started crossfit here 2 years ago and it has been one of the best decisions I've ever done! I started going twice a week then moved up to three days and shortly after started going 5-6 days a week. I don't imagine myself ever stopping. It is addicting! Great staff, awesome coaches and good people to workout with. Everyone celebrates each other's PRs and encourage each other to accomplish each other's goals! Love my box!!!!

I've been working out at Crossfit East Houston for almost 3 months. Something I never thought I could do or would even want to do. Thanks to a couple of friends for dragging me in, I'm now loving it! The coaches are awesome, very encouraging and supportive, and have taught me to push myself. Not being an athletic person, I've been able to do things I was always afraid to try before. I have seen results in just the short time I've been there, and I'm feeling stronger and healthier each day!!!

Dropped in for a week of class while visiting Houston. Jason was super accommodating. He was very patient and attentive with my little sister, who was doing CrossFit for the first time. He also offered challenging scaling options for me which I really appreciated. Definitely dropping by every time I'm in Houston.

Just went back to CrossFit 12 years and 2 kids later, and it was such a great experience. The coach worked with me to modify the workout so that I could ease my way back in. He also showed me form and made sure I understood the workout before we started. I am big on customer service, and this was a great example of providing an excellent experience from start to finish.

I joined CrossFit Illuminati in January 2016. Coach Jason made me feel confident and took care in making sure I did every movement correctly. And that’s the thing! There are movements in CrossFit that I stare at and think – no way. Everything can be modified. Heavy weights can be intimidating but throwing them from overhead after completing a move is a euphoric feeling – a feeling you won’t get from a shoulder press machine at the gym with your headphones on. You look around and everyone else is striving for their own greatness. CrossFit is accountability, community and strength. It is both individual improvement and a community lifestyle. Since joining CFI I have lost 20 pounds – and gained just as many friends. Each one of these friends motivate me to not just go to the gym, but do better every single time. And that is what makes me feel beautiful!

Crossfit Illuminati has been by far the best crossfit community I have been apart of. I started crossfit in 2013 and have moved several places in the country so that speaks volumes for me. From the initial meeting with the owner/coach Jason, to all of the members that have been absolutely welcoming. I couldn't imagine being apart of another crossfit family.

I joined this gym a little over a year ago and I only have positive things to say. The community is great, everyone (no matter where you’re starting from) is there to get better. The coaches, Jason and Stephen, are awesome! I couldn’t have asked for better coaches to begin my muscle building journey. I’m stronger, fitter, and faster than I’ve ever been. My only regret is that I didn’t start with Crossfit Illuminati sooner. Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or an elite athlete, this gym will make you better, period.

The space in itself is aesthetic and motivates you to accomplish your fitness goals. It is inspiring. Our trainer is knowledgeable, but not only that, he is patient and kind in the way he communicates. He has the ability to turn something daunting to be achievable. I always feel accomplished following a challenging, but attainable routine. Highly recommended!

Chi-Ho is by far one of the most articulate and dedicated coaches that I have had the opportunity to learn from. I came to this CrossFit gym to seek improvement in my form and master Olympic lifts/movements, and I have seen significant improvement in the short time I’ve been training here. Whether you’re a beginner or a regular CrossFitter seeking to up your game, I highly recommend this hidden gem. (Bonus: they have A/C!!! 🤩)

A great gym that will help both new and experienced athletes reach their fitness goals. The coaching, programming, equipment and attention to detail is second to none.

The place is very nice, equipment in perfect conditions, very clean and organized and the coach is very wise and patient, he explains all points of performance for every movement, is the perfect place to get fit and to love Crossfit

The space gives you the motivation, clean and well equipped. The coach is very patient, and knowledgeable.

Vie CrossFit is a true diamond in the rough. I did not expect to have found such a gem hidden away in West Oaks Mall. The community atmosphere is wholesome and genuine. The owners and instructors are both knowledgeable while also empathetic. I have even brought my family here with great experiences I have been a member of the Vie community for a little over a year now, and can foresee that being true for years to come

Best box in the area hands down! Coaches are very knowledgeable, helpful and super nice. I am so happy I made the decision to drop in to see it for myself. Nice equipment, big open spaces. Everyone there is also super helpful and encouraging when it comes to reaching personal fitness and health goals. A free of judgement CrossFit Gym great for any skill level.

Very positive coaches and friendly vibes. Has changed my fitness journey and have thoroughly enjoyed my CrossFit experience.

Moving to this box was one of the best decisions their program is amazing , their coaches are phenomenal , the people are so nice & motivated but most of all is so positive ,nothing but good vibes. Everyday I have learn something new about CrossFit .Vie CrossFit has motivated me so much more to want to do better & always stay learning & working for a better version of myself . If you are ever in the area or what to check out a new box this is the place to come it truly is a CrossFit box and community. ✌🏽 “Comfort is slow death.. prefer pain”

As someone who has never been to a CrossFit gym, I will say this place is everything I could expect from a workout. The coaches are professional, kind and work with me. Their WOD (workout of the day) is tailored around my strengths and weaknesses. It’s like a personal trainer with me throughout my workouts. This gym has a true sense of family and really care about their athletes. If you are debating whether to come and try, DO IT! You won’t regret it! 💪🏼

If you're looking for some relaxation, there's nothing better than surrounding yourself with great friends and sweating it out at the gym! I can't recommend First Gear Crossfit enough. The instructors are amazing, and being part of this gym feels like being part of a big, loving family. I've been doing crossfit for over 6 years now, and I can honestly say that this place is my second home!

Had a excellent experience working out with Juan and the team at First Gear CrossFit when visiting from London. The box was great to work in and everyone was welcoming. Look forward to seeing them again on my next trip to Houston

My favorite CrossFit! So glad I joined over a year ago. Coach Juan is the absolute best and pushes us to do better each day. :)

Juan is a very friendly gym owner and coach. It was very easy to do a drop-in, and the prices are very reasonable (I did the week pass for $45). Much cheaper than most drop-in prices at other places. The classes were very well structured, with a warm-up, strength, conditioning, and then a cardio challenge component. The equipment and space were all excellent. Getting to the gym is a bit interesting, since it's located past a private gate. However, Juan is constantly checking the camera to open the gate about 5-10min before class starts, so you don't have to wait long. I'll definitely be visiting next time I am in town!

First Gear CrossFit has changed my life. I have been here for 9 months and it has been the best experience ever. Coach Juan is super amazing, I started from zero and he has guided me every step of the way. He’s very patient and explains very well how to do the workout no matter what level you are. I did their weight loss program and it’s amazing. I had a big transformation going from size 14 to size 2. I have been learning how to keep and maintain the weight off. Love it!!! I feel strong, energetic, and healthy!!! Now, the environment is super amazing too! The people that goes there are super nice and friendly. It doesn’t matter how long you have been doing CrossFit or what level you are, everyone motivates each other to keep going, to finish the workout. It’s such a great feeling to hear your team encouraging you to keep going and do your best. I love my 5am crew, they are the best. This is family! I highly recommend First Gear CrossFit! You will love it!!!
