East Coast Fit - Gym, Nutrition

East Coast Fit has changed my life. As a burnt out nurse I was in desperate need of a lifestyle change. I was stuck in a job that made me miserable, and I felt stuck. I gave up completely on doing things I enjoyed, and I suffered mentally and physically. Just over a year ago, I walked into this gym for the first time. I had never stepped foot into a CrossFit gym before, and I wasn’t sure it was for me. I couldn’t have been more wrong. East Coast Fit welcomes EVERYONE with open arms. The support here is next level. The community-oriented atmosphere at this gym makes it so special, unlike any other gym. I have become addicted to getting to my classes at this gym, and am only in a bad mood these days when I don’t make it to a class. The classes are appropriate for anyone at any level because everything is modifiable. We cheer each other on through the end of workouts, and challenge each other when we see potential in others. East Coast Fit is so much more than a gym, hosting fun events throughout the year so everyone gets to know each other despite which class time you typically work out at. I’m so happy to say that East Coast Fit has helped me gain back control of my health, physically and mentally. I even gained the courage I needed to leave my toxic job and get a new one, which has drastically improved my quality of life. I’m forever grateful for East Coast Fit, and if you give it a chance, you will be right there with me too.

Joining this CrossFit gym has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve made. Not only am I physically stronger, but I’ve also gained a sense of mental resilience I didn’t know I had. The coaches here are exceptional—they’re knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely care about each member’s progress. They guide and encourage me to challenge myself at my own pace, which means a lot, as I’m not someone who’s focused on competition. The atmosphere is supportive and uplifting, with a community that cheers each other on, regardless of skill level or experience. This gym is a place where everyone can thrive, and I feel so lucky to be part of it. If you’re looking for a gym that empowers you both mentally and physically, this is the place to be!

I'm very happy I decided to do the ECF 6-week challenge. I was hesitant at first because CrossFit can be intimidating, especially if you're not experienced. However everyone, trainers and peers alike, are super kind and helpful. I feel totally comfortable doing the workouts to my ability, given guidelines for how to scale workouts to your level, and the extra coaching and encouragement from classmates is great. I also love being able to support a fantastic local gym rather than a big corporate gym!

East Coast has become one of my favorite places! I joined a little over a year ago because my sister inlaw was a member and I am so glad I did! When she was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after I joined, Sam and his coaches didn’t hesitate and put together a fundraiser for her. It was amazing! This community is like no other! At 44 I am in the best shape of my life! Come give it a try you won’t regret it!

I joined East Coast Fit through the 6 week challenge program. Definitely one of the most rewarding and life changing decisions I’ve made so far. All the coaches are so welcoming and supportive, as well as the other members in the community. The workouts are CHALLENGING, but the staff is always there for any questions you have for a certain movement or exercise and to help you keep pushing through the workouts. The nutrition aspect of the program has been extremely helpful and has been a huge factor on my overall success and weight loss journey. Would recommend anyone to join this group to start their fitness journey.
