CrossFit Double Down

I’m very happy at Double Down. Thomas is a great coach and is always coming up with new ideas. He can coach beginners as well as advanced athletes. Thomas also has other great coaches helping out. Loni, Vinnie, Jason, Simms do an awesome job instructing and ensuring safety and growth.

Three years of growth. I don’t mean growth in muscles. I mean growth as a human being. I am better. Yes I am stronger, faster and more flexible. However, this Box gave me something more. It gave me purpose. I found things out about myself that I never imagined possible. This place knocked down walls of insecurity and turned me into a completely different person. It showed me we are all capable of anything, if we work for it. Inside these walls there is not just a community, but a truly beautiful family. I am honored to have been apart of it. Thank you Crossfit Down Down.

Deciding to walk-​in to Double Down over a year ago was the best decision I ever made for my health, my mental well-​being, and my family relationships. Double Down is a great box because it’s spacious and airy. 4:30 can easily have 20 athletes at a time working out safely together. YES, Double Down is big. YES, Double Down has top notch equipment. YES, they have a nice low traffic running path. BUT that’s only a portion of the reason, we keep going… My Husband and I love Double Down for the community! The community of wonderful & caring Coaches AND awesome & inspiring members.
Mike Simms is my evening Coach (5:30 & 6:30) and he is the most patient, knowledgeable, caring, and all around great guy! Mike will give you more information than you ever wanted to know including all the scientific reasoning behind the movements… He will then tell you in basic terms, «Doing this will give you booty gains.» This is just classic Mike. He loves Crossfit and loves to teach others to be empowered and knowledgeable.
For me Crossfit is about getting healthy, challenging myself and competing with myself. My first day, I could not even carry a 30lb kettle bell across the box. I felt like the 200m run was going to be the death of me. I did kettle bell swings using a 15lb KB. I stopped at 50m to break for air! But I didn’t give up and for some reason came back the next day. I love the feeling of reaching milestones. One day out of the blue, after consistently coming to class and moving up in weight… I felt stronger! Mike challenged me to do KB swings with 53lbs… Initial thoughts, «he’s crazy!» Second though, «Well let me try it.» I completed the WOD using the 53lb KB. I will also never forget the first time I ran 400m non-​stop!
Based off my personal experience, I feel there is this common misconception of Crossfit, «You need to be fit to do Crossfit.» WRONG! You get fit by doing Crossfit. I’ve tried personal trainers ($ 300 a month for 2 lessons per week). I’ve tried gyms and I’ve tired doing it alone. Nothing worked for me. Crossfit Double Down works me and my family. My husband and I pay less for Double Down than a personal trainer, we get unlimited classes and each class feels like you have a personal trainer! All the movements are scalable and the coaches work with you to find the right scaled weight and comparable movement.
I would encourage anyone who’s ever thought about it to just walk-​in! Show up 15 – 20 mins prior to the start of class to observe the earlier class, fill out a waiver and talk to members. Everyone is super friendly and encouraging.

Crossfit Double Down is a great gym with great people. I started working out with Thomas two years ago and am still loving it. Everyday is different and Thomas knows when and how to push you. Highly recommend to both beginners and Crossfit addicts…

This is the best, most intense training you’ll get anywhere. I’ve been coming here for two years and have definitely seen great improvement in my strength, mobility and endurance. Thomas is a great motivator who will get the best out of you. This is a great sense of community among all the members.

Was on vacation in Vegas and this gym was recommended by our coach. As soon as we walked in we were welcomed by a couple coaches and members. Very good feeling and made us feel right at home. The coach was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The work out was tough and that was to ‘ve expected. It was a great experience. We will be back again.

Love this Box. As a health and fitness coach I highly recommend this box. They push you to the limit and really care for your quality of reps. Doing it proper to prevent injuries. I have been a member of 4 boxes in the US and Vegas and I have to say from the workouts to the people its a 10 for me.

I have been going to this gym for a little over 1 year. These are hardcore workouts that are daunting at first, but with some internal mental strength and good coaching you can get through it and find your groove like I did. It wouldn’t be possible to be where im at today without Thomas as my coach. He cares about his members progress beyond the typical business relationship of just retaining a customer, and he sincerely wants to see people advance and achieve their goals. While its not 1-​on-​1 personal training, you pretty much get all the same benefits of that for a fraction of the cost. My experience here has solidified that ill never be returning to a big box gym ever. The gym here is like a small family and I look forward to going every day. If you are tired, bored or not seeing the results at your go-​to gym, give Crossfit and DoubleDown a shot. When you ask many of the members what their biggest regret is, the answer is usually «I wish I would have got involved and tried this earlier»

Where to start about Crossfit Double Down? Thomas and Laurie McCrummen are amazing people. They are not about making a quick buck, but they are certainly about changing people’s lives. They have made both my wife and I feel like family. There can be twenty people in a class, but we were always made feel as though we were the only ones. Thomas knows how to safely push and progress us and because of that, we have become better athletes. My wife recently had a baby and Crossfit Double Down knew exactly how to get her back into exercising safely. We have worked out all our life’s and have belonged to a dozens of different gyms, but Cross Fit Double down is by far the best establishment we have belonged to yet. As a Health Care Professional, Executive Director and business owner within the community for over 25 year, I don’t take authoring these types of recommendations lightly. If you are considering Crossfit Double Down, have trust and confidence in the fact that both Thomas and Laurie McCrummen will do everything possible to change your lives’ for the best.

Let me start by saying that I have been Crossfitting at a box in Atlanta for just over six months and have only just started to acquire the basics — pull-​ups, strength techniques, double unders, etc… I decided that on my short stay in Vegas, I wanted to drop into a Box and get a quality workout — compared to the lackluster workout a hotel gym can offer. I went to Double Down’s website and found things easy to manage so I registered and agreed to give it a shot. I showed up for the 6:00am class and was greeted by Thomas who seemed enthusiastic to have me join his team for the day. Once the rest of the members showed up — we began with some active warm up techniques and partner stretching. I immediately felt like I was a part of the Double Down family and that feeling never waivered. Thomas even loaned me his own jump rope since I did not bring mine from Atlanta.
In summary — I would strongly recommend that anyone visiting Vegas or living in Vegas give this gym a try, no matter the skill level.
Thanks again Thomas — I look forward to participating with your group again during my next Vegas visit this year!

I first saw Crossfit double down on groupon and was excited about it, I’ve never committed to a box before and this groupon was unlimited crossfit classes for a month. Sounds great right?!
I went in the following day and asked for a free trail, Laurie agreed to let us drop in Feb 2. We had our work out and she was telling us we could do regular Crossfit classes instead of the basics alternate. My boyfriend and I were liked this and agreed to purchase the groupon the very next morning to workout again.
… To my surprise, the groupon was gone. Uhh, tf?! I thought maybe it was just me, maybe I couldn’t find this groupon that was just there yesterday! I come in and tell Laurie that I’m ready to work out but can no longer find their groupon. She tells me that their groupon was only suppose to be up till Jan 2. It’s now Feb 3^rd. Laurie goes on to tell me «yeah when you guys were talking about groupon I was like, uh oh»… As in uh oh Laurie forgot to tell us yesterday Feb 2^nd, as if she knew it was going to be gone the next day. Do you not value any customer that’s willing to try out your gym?
Idk if it’s just me but If I was Laurie I would have said something. she knew we were potential crossfitters via groupon and said nothing. This really turned me off about the way they do things.
Long story short I would never want to work with them for their lack of communication. It would have been nice to been given the heads up.
PS: MY BOYFRIEND & I LOVE CROSSFIT

I’ve been going to CrossFit Double Down for a little over a year now and consider it more than a gym. It truly is a lifestyle! Thomas and Laurie have been so patient and have helped me progress so much. I’ve lost over 20 lbs and put on muscle where I’ve never seen it before — I took 30 minutes off of my last 10k time. And if you know how slow I am — that would drop your jaw.
This process and this gym has taught me to question old beliefs I’ve had about myself and my abilities. I’ve learned so much not just from the excellent trainers I’ve had (shout out Thomas, Laurie, RJ, TJ, and Kenny) but from the awesome people that I’ve had the privilege and opportunity to work out with (shout out 7:30 and 6:30 crew and other special work out buddies — you know who you are). I still consider myself a newbie with a lot to learn and I’m excited that I get to continue my journey and training in a place I’ve grown to love (and hate and sweat and cry at).
If you are new to CrossFit or «CrossFit curious» or looking for an excellent gym in the Southwest area this is the best place to start!

I have been a member for a little over a year and absolutely love and recommend this box. Thomas and Laurie are awesome trainers. Because of their guidance and their intense WODs I am seeing fast results. They take the time to make sure you have the right technique and form to avoid injury. Classes start as early as 6am to as late as 7:30pm which works out great for me and my busy schedule. Highly recommend!

I’d give it 0 stars if I could. This place has the potential to be good, but the trainer/​owner is a bad businessman. He basically tells you one thing to get your business and then when asked to honor it, he calls you a liar and refuses to honor it. I’ve been a member of this gym since it was sincity crossfit and stuck with it while it went through the transition and became crossfit doubledown. I saw other members having the same types of issues, but didn’t think much of it until the same thing happened to me. Be cautious if you decide to sign up with this gym!!!
Side note: The positive reviews on this gym are from when this place was under different management! The former trainer/​management was awesome! Too bad things changed…

CrossFit Double Down is such a great place to workout! I have been with them for a little over 6 months and I go about 3 times a week. I am also a full time student so it helps that they have the late night classes. This gym is like an awesome growing family that truly helps you get to your body goals and make it fun while achieving it. I hate working out but it is nice to come to a gym where everyone is friendly and knows your name. I have seen such great changes in my body and have definitely become stronger. Laurie and Thomas are such great people and they always make sure you are safe in the workout and make sure you understand the right way to complete the workout. I love working out here!

I have been a member since May of 2014. I was influenced to try Crossfit by my son, my first thought was «are you kidding me, that will kill me», haha, but it was just the opposite, its rather addicting. I am 45 years old and have never worked out, I was very hesitant to try this form of exercise but Laurie and Thomas have helped me tremendously along the way. When they see I am struggling they push me to keep going and do better at every workout, I love the support system at Double Down.
My step-​daughter attends a box in Long Beach, CA and she says not only do they not have a basics program but the trainers don’t help her out with anything, she will be relocating here soon and is really excited to become apart of the Crossfit Double Down family. After talking to some others regarding Crossfit I have found they all have the same complaints, trainers don’t pay attention to individuals needs and no basics. If there was not a basics program at my box I would not be attending. Thomas and Laurie take great pride in their members and making sure they meet their goals and also make sure they don’t injure themselves.
There is also a great kids program, my 13 year old who is very self conscious, enjoys attending and loves his trainer, Laurie. She keeps him motivated and wanting to come back for more. I really love the family atmosphere at our box.
Not only are Thomas and Laurie great trainers the members at our box are amazing as well, everyone is very supportive and when one of us sees another member struggling we all pitch in and do our best to push them through their workout. I have never seen a bigger support system in anything I have ever done.
So, whether you are visiting Vegas or live in Vegas if you are thinking of trying Crossfit I highly recommend trying Crossfit Double Down, you won’t be disappointed!!!

Dropped in on a Monday, in town to see Family. I picked this box because of the good reviews, close proximity, AND the WOD was posted (note to other gyms in the area. I didn’t bring all my gear so I had to be selective.
Great big gym, very friendly atmosphere, enthusiastic coaches. Bested my Bear complex. I’ll be back for sure!
Thanks for the workout Sin City West!

Stopped by for a vacation wod while visiting LV in January.
I had emailed ahead of time to make sure it was cool.
Everyone was very friendly and accommodating. Felt like i was at my hime CF gym
Had a great time. Painful (in a good cf way) wod and back to town for the usual LV. debauchery

My husband and I were sick of going to a normal gym and wanted a change. We found this gym when driving by it’s location. We are so glad we did! Your first time is free and that’s all it took for us to get addicted. The owners/​trainers are amazing. They really know what they are talking about.
I love that all you need to focus on is working out rather than worrying about WHAT to do as you would being on your own in a normal gym. It doesn’t matter what level you are, you can do this. You will be amazed at how strong you become. We’ve been going for over a month now and I can already tell a difference in my workouts.
I don’t think I’ll ever be able to go back to working out on my own or even join a normal gym again.

I heard about SinCity CrossFit opening their new WEST on the radio. I stopped by to check it out and was very impressed! The facility was clean, organized, and the staff was super welcoming. My first session was free! Loved it and decided to commit to the gym.
The pricing is VERY reasonable. Plus they offer several possible discount options.
I’m super excited and definitely recommend this gym.
