CrossFit Nissi

I’ve been coming to Crossfit Nissi since it opened and I have been enjoying my time here. I have been to 2 boxes before and unfortunately had to leave for very specific reasons. At Crossfit Nissi, here is what I notice:
Coaching:
The coaches, Justin and Russell (owner), are both knowledgable in movements and exercises. They also understand that each person’s body is different so the way we execute lifts or movements will all differ. As a result, they are patient in their explanation on technique and form.
Programming:
WOD’s usually include a warm-​up, strength (or skill), and a Metcon (or two). They are challenging yet doable. Lifts vary EQUALLY so you get a chance to work on a little bit of everything.
Flexibility:
Russell is understanding of unexpected changes because that’s just how life works and I don’t think people should be penalized when life decides to just… life. My boyfriend and I had to place a hold on our membership for December due to financial issues. I notified Russell regarding our situation A FEW DAYS before December started and Russell simply said, «Okay» — no if’s, and’s, or but’s. He didn’t ask me for a 30 day notice, email, or give me any problems. (Thanks!)
Classes/​open gym are as scheduled but anytime Russell happens to be at the box between those times, he will post about it and invite members to participate. I was able to take advantage of that today; I came in at noon and left an hour after. Most boxes don’t offer that kind of «open gym» experience; it is usually at specific times only or a feature of a more premium membership or not a feature at all.
Equipment:
Everything is Rogue — that is all.
Membership:
Affordable compared to other boxes within the area. Wodify is also included with your membership. I enjoy using this application to see my progress and what the WOD is because I like to plan my meals accordingly.
Environment:
Light-​hearted, chill, and professional. No meatheads (yet). No yelling or cursing at clients (yes, I have see that before at other boxers). There is camaraderie amongst members as well. We are always supporting and encouraging each other.
Overall, Crossfit Nissi is focused on providing quality service to their members and the community.

Crossfit. Some people might be intimidated by the power lifting, burpee-​loving nature of crossfitters. I was intimidated at first, for the sole reason that I was not that athletic. Okay, I wasn’t athletic at all. I’ve done swimming but that’s about it.
I decided to give this box a try with my boyfriend and our friend. To my surprise, we met some amazing, down-​to-​earth, and supportive individuals who not only push us to be better but treat us like family.
For those who know, lifting is an essential part of crossfit. The coaches at Crossfit Nissi will focus on your FORM. Why? Because they are big on safety. They make sure that every person at the box learn the right way to avoid injuries.
People who come to Crossfit Nissi all differ in many aspects but we all come together to build each other up. If you ask me what the best thing about this box is, I would say the camaraderie. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. You won’t feel pressured to do things but know that you’ll have such great support system that will help you push yourself to be better, faster, and stronger.
I recommend you to come in and give Crossfit Nissi a try! You won’t regret it!

Great place! Owner is awesome and the programming is great. For what other crossfit charge in the area this is the most reasonable in price.

This place is awesome! I’m new to crossfit and ever since I started going here, the coaches and members have shown nothing but love and support. Coaches do outstanding jobs teaching forms and techniques. They are able to scale the workouts to meet individual skill levels. If you’re thinking about joining this box, whether you’re a new to crossfit or a veteran, I definitely advise that you try it out.

I’ve been going to Crossfit Nissi since it opened and I can’t speak highly enough about this box. If you’re interested in trying CrossFit then this is the place for you. The awesome trainers/​coaches really care about their athletes and their well being. They take their cue from them and really work on teaching you proper technique before you go jumping into higher weights. They check in with every athlete to see if there are any injuries to be aware of and scale the workout of the day for you in case there is. The coaches and members choose to encourage you, motivate you and push you to your limits which creates an atmosphere of support and accomplishment.

I’ll start with this… I never thought I would be the crossfit type! I’m a cardio person and I hate weights! I’ve been at crossfit nissi for 2 months now and I LOVE IT! Great trainers and great atmosphere! Trainers encourage without yelling or making you feel intimidated. Everyone I’ve had the pleasure of working out with, trainers & members, have been awesome, patient, and very helpful. Highly recommend!
