I was persuaded to write a positive review early on when my experience was (mostly positive). Now 8 months later the only thing that deserves a star at this facility is the physical space and location; the trainers that were there quit and/or were quietly removed and management did nothing to explain through any sort of formal communication (meanwhile they have no problems texting or emailing everyone their CrossFit marketing propaganda or reminders when you haven’t been to the gym in a few days). I was disappointed to find out by word of mouth that the morning coach resigned (no announcement) and there was also no announcement of the member-turned-intern-turned-coach’s permanent installment. More recently and most upsetting, the only Latinx coach (from the original group when I started) was let go and management again did nothing to notify or explain. She was an excellent relationship builder and given it’s Pilsen and many of the clients are Hispanic/Latinx, it’s overall very disappointing. All of the reasons (people) I enjoyed this gym have disappeared, for which reason I will not be renewing an already pricey rate (one year commitment for unlimited classes at $59 /week) when my contract ends this summer. Do yourself a favor and find a more affordable space that compensates its staff well and sees its members as community, not cash buckets to sell re-packaged weight loss/wellness/nutrition programs to — further enabling the exploitative nature of the health & wellness industry. EDIT: less than one month after updating this review the second coach quit for a new role and the replacement coach had to quit for personal reasons. The gym hours have also been reduced in half.
I was looking for a place in between a Crossfit gym and a HIIT/boot camp class, and Transformation Fitness sits right in the middle. I like that we do heavy lifts and functional conditioning as part of every class (and if Jill is leading the class you do an ab finisher as a bonus.) And if you are so inclined they have a leaderboard if that's what you like for motivation. Speaking of Jill, she leads a great class. She is engaging, positive, and keeps the class fun (and light-hearted). I am also impressed that she knows everyone's name that walks in the door. She is helping me focus on my goals by giving me some exercise modifications in preparation for a fitness event. You're awesome Jill!! For me, it is very important that my form is correct when doing any heavy lifting. Drew and Jill are constantly walking the room to make sure everyone is lifting safely and giving advice to improve their form, and of course making sure everyone is having fun. I also like the positive gym vibe from everyone that works out there. You can tell there is camaraderie among your classmates. They also do monthly activities with members to keep the good vibes going. I want to make sure I acknowledge Drew. When I first met with him I mentioned some elbow pain. He quickly educated me on why I was having that pain, and then proceeded to work on my arm to loosen the muscles around the elbow which in turn decreased my pain. Now I know what I need to do to rid myself of that pain. Thanks Drew.
I joined transformation fitness because I have been struggling to lose weight on my own. No matter how hard I tried I just kept gaining weight and this left me feeling quite unhealthy and unhappy. I signed up for the three week challenge and started on August 17th. At the beginning of the challenge, I weighed 157 pounds and at the end I weighed myself and was at 151 pounds!! I have safely lost 6 pounds during these three weeks of working out with transformation fitness. I plan to continue working out with them because of the great results!! I would also say that this is a very supportive environment. I think the coaches are really great at explaining, adapting excercises and very motivating. They take the time to get to know you and I appreciate that! They also answer all my questions when I notice things going on with my body like soreness and such! The members of transformation fitness are also very sweet! I see myself making friends with the folks that I work out with. Every member that I have met has been very kind and supportive. We all support and motivate each other during the workouts and I think this is also contributing to my success! They are also good with covid 19 guidelines! Workout sessions are kept to only 8 people at a time and everyone has to wear a mask. So ultimately if you are looking for a place to workout and work towards your fitness goals I highly recommend transformation fitness.
I just finished the 6 week challenge with Transformation Fitness and am excited about continuing my exercise & health journey with this gym. When I was looking to change my lifestyle and eating habits I truly appreciated Drew's responsiveness when I sent a simple request. This has continued throughout the 6 weeks with both Drew and Jill along with support, encouragement and accountability, which I needed more than I knew. Jill has a way of making the classes fun and pushing us to reach our goals without being too intense. I also have found a new love in lifting weights and Jill teaches you the importance of it in everyday life. After about 4 weeks I surprisingly started looking forward to the classes. Now to the results, as Drew said in the beginning, if you follow the plan it will work...and it DOES!! I've done several exercise plans over the years but I would always plateau, no matter how often I exercised. The missing piece was the nutrition, which made all the difference for me. The meal plan was a game changer for me and it has also helped me think about food differently and have a better understanding of why I was eating so much junk prior to starting the program. I highly recommend Transformation Fitness for all of your fitness needs, be it working out, nutrition or a combination of both. You won't regret it!
If you are looking for a gym that offers you a true program of transformation, then this is the place. Drew and Jill are outstanding coaches and encouragers on the journey. The classes are well-balanced for steady progress on your goals - mainly good health, strength, endurance, good nutrition, and energy throughout your day. I went there to first participate in the 6 week challenge. This program was a big success for me personally for several reasons. Renewed my commitment to working out and they made it fun and positive with the right mix of work on flexibility, strength and endurance. Second, I am meeting some truly great positive people - and Jill (the primary class leader) is a great human being, a wonderful role model, and truly cares for and encourages those in the class. Third, I am steadily getting stronger, adding tone to my muscles again (at 63), able to run longer and ride my bike further, and am lowering my body fat. As I age (as I said 63), I want to stay strong. This program has me hooked and I will be staying at the gym to continue to participate in classes and grow stronger, healthier and happier with my own body. And ... their program works! I see everyone benefitting and commenting on how good it is.
After 2 years of not working out in a gym (was only doing at home workouts) I decided to get back into a gym. Transformation Fitness has everything I was looking for in a gym that fits my needs and goals. The coaches are great and really know how to motivate me, push me and make sure to work with anyone that needs modifications or assistance. While I have done weight workouts before, these workouts were new to me, but the coaches took their time to explain everything and assisting me to get started. In a matter of weeks I started to notice a difference with some weight loss but especially with my strength, each week I am using heavier weights and completing more sets/reps. I also did the 1:1 nutrition program with Drew which helped me realize a lot about the way I was eating, sleeping and lack of hydration. Drew provided me with the tools to make smarter and healthier choices. He motivated me to make the necessary adjustments to everyday things to help reach my goals. Transformation Fitness has helped me get back on track to a healthier and active way of living and I look forward to what new fitness/lifestyle goals I will achieve with them! See you at the gym!
CrossFit Commitment is about a mile away from where I live, so I'd been curious to try it for a couple years before I finally gave it a shot. They were running a 6 week challenge promotion and at the time, I was needing a nudge to shake up my fitness routine so I decided to go for it. The 6 week challenge proposes that you lose either 20 lbs OR 5% body fat. In order to keep you accountable you put down a hefty deposit. If you meet your goal you get your money back. Guess what? I didn't meet my goal. What I did lose: 12 lbs (157lbs down to 145lbs) and 4 percent body fat lost. Most importantly I lost many of my sugar junk food cravings from eating whole foods and following the nutrition plan; sluggishness; and any doubts I had about keeping a regular workout routine. Working out regularly is essential to my mental and emotional health and the gang (staff and other members) at CrossFit Commitmen are very welcoming, patient and encouraging, especially to newcomers. I loved my experience so much that I signed up as a full time member after I completed the challenge. Highly recommend.
I had been working on my weight loss journey for about a year, focusing just on reducing my calorie intake. I have been successful in my efforts, but I had started to plateau, and I knew I needed to start exercising to really reinvigorate my losses again. I passed this gym every day on my way to work, and had liked what I saw: small classes, people supporting each other, and what looked like people having fun. When I saw the 6-week challenge, I knew this was my opportunity to get in on it too. Drew and Ricardo helped me adjust my macros to get the most out of my meals, and though interrupted by the stay at home order, my time at the gym was very enjoyable, and I can't wait to go back once they reopen. That didn't stop them though! They held online classes for at-home workouts, and checked in with me, not just about my workouts, but how my mental space was as well in this exceedingly unusual time. I've never had that level of care from a gym, and didn't think to look for it. 10/10 this place is great!
Transformation Fitness is a great gym. I have been a member for about 9 weeks and so far have lost 10 + pounds. The coaches are knowledgeable, friendly, and caring. I had so many fears prior to joining this gym. Transformational Fitness will help you fight your fears and is full of others who are fighting alongside you. The gym is very Covid-19 safe and has respected all statewide protocols. The bathrooms are always clean and equipment is wiped down by gym-goers after every session. If there are any announcements that affect workout hours, gym-goers are informed through Wodify, our fitness management software, email, and text. I am so happy I joined this gym. I am constantly challenged to try my hardest. Since joining, my arms have become more toned and I am feeling more confident about my physique. I keep raving about this gym to family and friends because of the support I have gotten from the coaches and owners. If you are on the fence about joining, stop hesitating, do it!! Health is wealth. :)
Join this amazing gym! Chances are if you are looking at the reviews, you are interested in working out, getting fit, trying something new, etc. Don't waste anymore time reading reviews, just sign up at Crossfit Commitment! I signed up and did the 6 week challenge and it has changed my life for the better and I have actually lost weight and am becoming more fit. The workouts are great as they can be modified for all fitness levels so you will always feel like you are being challenged without feeling left out. Don't worry if you are a beginner or new to working out (like me), there will always be a coach to teach you! I also just come in without having to think about what I should exercise as they have it all planned out for you. In and out in an hour for all you busy folks, with a range of class times to fit your schedule! The coaches and other Crossfit members are super friendly and will help and support you during the workouts.
I remember scrolling on FB and seeing Franco’s post about a 6-week challenge. I was in a place in my life where I wanted to pick myself up again and improve my mental health. I used to go to the gym consistently and fell completely off and landed 100 miles away. Imagine working out 5 days a week to completely stopping for 2 years then getting back on a rigid schedule? IT’S TOUGH. I’ve never done crossfit before but this was a great and challenging experience. I loved having a meal plan and checking in with coaches. It strengthened my discipline and made me get back into being active! This program helped me see what I was capable of and also made me realize how much work I need to put forth to see results. I was able to lose inches off my waist, back, and even decreased my body fat percentage. Shout out to Drew, Franco, Danny, and Ricardo for being such great motivators! I’m glad to still be part of Crossfit commitment!
Hello my name is Jesus , I really recommend Transformation Fitness because it’s a great area, organized, clean and its coaches are great people and very professional in their work. In this place you will meet people that will make you feel welcome and enjoying being there. The work material , the exercise routines, absolutely everything is very good, the way they encourage you to give your best it is Absolutely awesome . I took my first three weeks of training with Coach Nate and they were very good, very productive, the enthusiasm, passion, and motivation that he puts into each day of training shows that he is giving 100% of his work to help you improve your physical state. The last two weeks with Coach Drew were also very productive, learning more every day the way in which he drives us to give that extra is truly extraordinary, it shows us that we can do much more. I give them ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had been wanting to try this gym for sometime since it’s local and always looked like fun inside, but gym intimidation constantly stopped me. I was then tagged on FB to try their 6 week challenge so I thought why not?? I was chosen to be apart of the challenge in March and have loved everyday!! The gym is very clean it’s one of the first things you notice when you walk in. The atmosphere is very energetic and welcoming which is such a important factor when you’re trying something new. The staff is absolutely committed to their creed and are with you every step of the way. I’ve seen results toward my goal in such a short amount of time and I know it’s because they really care about their members. CFC is not just a gym it’s a inclusive community and if you’re looking to try something new to change your lifestyle, have fun and better your health this is the place to start!!
I signed up for the 6-week Transformation Fitness challenge and love it!! I’ve learned so many exercises and I’m still learning more as I signed up again for another 6-weeks. I’ve lost 14-lbs, many inches off of my targeted areas and have gained more sustainable eating habits. The assorted daily class times made it easy to get my workouts in every MWF with times that worked for my schedule. You also have to do 2- 30 minute walks a week which was a breeze for me as I walk 100-miles a month in the summer. Each class is different, so you never get the same routine which makes if both fun and challenging. Drew and Coach Jill are amaZING and I’m so glad I found them… I highly recommend their 6-week challenge which also included an easy to follow meal plan and daily touch base with Coach Jill for accountability. Bring a friend, co-worker and/or family member. Best, Robyn
About six weeks ago, an ad for CrossFit Commitment caught my attention. It had been difficult to accept that I was not the same active person I used to be and that chronic back problems were getting the best of me. However, the best decision I have made — in a very long time — was to walk into that gym; I’ve felt understood, supported, challenged, and been held accountable. It’s been fun, it’s been working (getting stronger and leaner), and it’s been safe on my injuries. Most notably, I have seen a similar impact on my mood: I have been calmer, happier, more focused, and more positive. These results are worth it. I truly look forward to going to my workouts there. The compassion of the Crossfit Commitment coaches, the cheering of members for each other, and the commitment of them all to support healthier choices for a better tomorrow is what keeps me going.
I decided to do the 6 week challenge because of the meal plan, guided training sessions, and accountability. I never grew up with the mentality that exercise was important or a priority in my life so I felt I needed all three areas to help me get started. After 6 weeks, not only did I lose 8 pounds and 3.5% body fat, but I was shocked by how much healthier and stronger my body felt in such a quick amount of time. During the training sessions I was worried I wouldn’t be able to keep up but none of the coaches or other gym goers made me feel like that. Everyone is positive and you get to go at your own pace. My confidence grew with every day at the gym and the results become evident quickly. I’m very happy with my decision to do the challenge and I’m looking to stick around longer and see what more I can accomplish with my new fitness goals.
I LOVE THIS GYM! I haven’t worked out in years. And planning our wedding in have in Tulum in November is a big push to get in shape. I love my wedding dress and want to look my best, and be the best version of myself. I started out with the transformation challenge. It was amazing! I lost almost 9 lbs in 6 weeks. The atmosphere and people are great! I was nervous to go but I wasn’t intimidated going at all. Drew, the owner, and Jill are so knowledgeable helpful! I couldn’t ask for a better team. When we bought a house too far to stay with the gym, I am continuing with nutrition coaching with Drew. I’m down 16 lbs and I still have several more weeks in the program. My goal is to lose 20 lbs and I have no doubt I will exceed my goal with his help! I physically, mentally, and emotionally feel better than I have in years!
I highly recommend attending an initial consultation with Drew if you are interested in shifting into a healthier lifestyle this year! worked with Drew as my coach within my individual Transformation program that focuses on nutrition and CrossFit training at Transformation Fitness. He is very knowledgeable when it comes to nutrition, weight loss management, and coming up with customized strategies that fit your routine/lifestyle. He held me accountable throughout the full 12 weeks and we discussed my calorie intake/nutritional metrics to provide data-driven tweaks to my meal plans for the best results. Additionally, I enjoy attending CrossFit classes regularly with Rosa and Astin because they create a personable and comfortable atmosphere while you work out especially when I first started training there.
I had been wanting to try Cross Fit for a while now but was a little intimidated by it. I then came across Cross Fit Commitment. Glad I did. It's not only down the street from my place but the Coaches, facility and community are all great! I like the fact that they offer classes that start as early as 5am. I'm a big fan of attending early morning workouts since it sets the tone for the rest of my day. Being new to cross fit - I enjoy how all of the coaches take their time in showing you proper posture. As the coaches get to know you they also get to know how much you are capable of and they challenge and push you at the same time. I appreciate this. Ever since I started I feel stronger and better. I love everything about this box and I look forward to the WOD. Thank you, CFC!
I have been working out consistently for years, got great results, and have always been skeptical of CrossFit; however, it is only right to give credit where credit is due. I did a 6 week challenge program at CrossFit commitment, and although it was frustrating at times (I missed all my delicious foods!), it was truly remarkable. I learned tons of new workouts, started making and eating healthier foods, met some amazing people, and finished the 6 weeks feeling like I’m in the best shape of my life. Drew, Franco and everyone at CrossFit commitment are incredible, and they push you just the right amount to achieve your goals. And if you ever find the time to give their workouts a chance, do so (safely!). I cannot recommend it enough. I promise you, you won’t regret it.
I am honestly amazed by how effective this 21-day program has been. I lost 13.2 lbs in 21 days !! I have been engaged in sports, fitness, and monitoring my diet for many years now, and I have never!! gotten the results that I got from Transformation Fitness. It was not easy, it definitely took work and commitment and saying No when necessary. That said, the meal plan has a lot of really great options, I had more peanut butter in the last 21 days than I have in probably a year! And the class workouts were really engaging especially because the coaches were so awesome. And all in a covid-safe environment. I would recommend this plan to anyone, if you’re serious about results, and are ready to be accountable to yourself, this is it.
Was looking for a new Crossfit gym after my previous one had closed and when I moved into the area. I had passed by CFC several times and figured to just pull the trigger on joining. Started off with the 6 week challenge and have been so happy with that decision. Everyone is incredibly welcoming and the coaches are extremely knowledgeable and passionate at what they do. They encourage and push you to do your best. Perhaps one of the biggest takeaways that I had in doing the 6 week challenge was their ability to be very thorough in teaching the basic fundamentals while also focusing on safety-- even having done Crossfit before, made me really appreciative and have a different positive outlook on it. Recommend for anyone interested :).
I have been a member of the gym for over 1.5 years and while I absolutely love the workouts and training I recently become even more impressed by the comprehensive approach to their training and coaching. I recently (end of April) enrolled in their nutrition planning and through proactive and diligent coaching of Ricardo Valle I was able to reach my goal. I wanted to reduce my body fat and started at ~15.3% and was able to reach my goal of below 12.5% in less than 2 months time. Not only that Ricardo was able to break me from my bad eating habits and create a self-pacing plan that allowed me to achieve results. If you're looking for better nutrition help or a tough (yet fun) workout this gym is the place to be.
This team is the absolute best! I joined cause I needed some real Guidance on how to keep myself healthy under the most stressful and chaotic situations at work and they really stepped up. Not only they helped me understand my body and how to make sustainable lifestyle changes but also helped me by giving me realistic ideas on how to keep these positive behaviors even at the most challenging situations. Weight loss is not easy, and definitely has never been easy for me. But with all the ups and downs (and many plateaus) In the last 3 months I lost my 10lb and I have learned so many things that are now part of my day to day life. If you’d re committed, they are committed to you and your success.
CFC is amazing! All the coaches are super friendly and nice! They keep track of your progress and pay close attention to technique and form. They know exactly how far to push you and do not make it overwhelming. Once the coach caught me pull a muscle and asked if I was okay, which I didn't realize until later that I was hurting. Luckily they have a doctor visit every now and then who was able to help me recover quickly. You can even talk to them about nutrition and meal prep, at a point they would ask me to send pictures of every meal for a week so that they could make sure I was following instructions and make changes if need be. The coaches are super attentive and everyone is super nice!
I dropped in maybe 25-30 times. Friendly members. Seems like a really great community that has a get together once a month. Great location. Rosa (who I have not met) is also very sweet: sending personalized mail and emails. -2 stars purely because of the equipment, price, and salesman nature of Drew. Unless you commit to a one year plan at $59 per week, a weekly plan is as much as $99. I felt very pressured to buy a membership, buy it now, pay for a full year in advance, pay for nutrition consulting, etc. The sales process was uncomfortable. Also the prices did not make sense to me given the lack of equipment. There was no incorporation of row, bike or ski that are common in other gyms.
I started at this gym during the transformation fitness challenge but, I quickly came to realize that this is more of a community; from the coaches who hold you accountable, some of us need this more than others to, the social outings that are scheduled monthly. It's really cool getting to know those you whom you work out with also; you start to look forward to the familiar faces. There's a part towards the end of some of the workouts where you have to roll a die or throw a ball into a colored bucket to dictate how many reps you have to complete, a fun little challenge. I highly recommend this gym no matter what part of the fitness journey you're on!
I am truly happy with the entire CrossFit Commitment Family! My sister had completed a 6 week challenge with them and I saw such great and noticeable results that I became curious and went to an informational. I decided to give it a shot, and honestly it is one of the only programs that has helped me get in shape. Not only did I lose 11 pounds (I'm small framed, so this is a lot) but I lost over 5% body fat in only 6 wks. Everyone here treated me well and were invested in making sure I met my goals. Drew was attentive to my food intake and would check-in with me often! Thanks Drew, Franco and the entire CrossFit Commitment Team!
I took the CrossFit Commitment 6 week challenge back in December. The results over exceeded my expectations and therefore at the end of the 6 weeks I had become a full member. CFC helped me set new PRs and reach my desired BF%. The Instructors are true professionals, very knowledgeable, and have a passion for what they do. The facility is always immaculate (and this was before the Covid Crisis). The community is very positive, friendly, and welcoming. The workouts are always challenging. If you are serious about achieving your fitness goals, I highly recommend giving this gym your business. It is worth every penny.
This gym put all of my negative opinions about CrossFit to rest! I participated in their 6-week challenge, and even then I was skeptical. I started the challenge and it was a great experience from beginning to end. My coaches Ricardo and Fabio were helpful and knowledgeable, I followed a fulling meal plan, and I was held accountable for all of my actions good and bad! Overall, I received the support I needed to be successful in the challenge which carried into my daily life. I would highly recommend this place because, not only do you gain confidence and strength. You also gain a supportive community of friends.
I came across an ad on Facebook about this gym and decided to give it a try. Signed up to their 6-week challenge and I am excited to say that I’ve seen AMAZING result. I feel a lot more energetic and I’ve been told that I have a glow on my face. The coaches are truly caring and overall amazing!! For over a year I paid a gym membership at another gym and NEVER went in even once to workout, but at CrossFit Commitment, I have the support from the coaches who hold me accountable to my workout schedule and nutritious diet. What a better gym partner than a great coach. This gym is a 10 out of 5 stars!!
Check your fears at the door, no egos allowed. Everyone at this crossfit gym is supportive, friendly and motivational. You can go on in knowing nothing. Drew/Franco/Ricardo are all top notch, helpful coaches, and pushy in a good way. I started at crossfit commitment never doing most of these exercises, workouts and stretches. Within 7-8 weeks I was well on my way in their beginner track focusing on technique and nutrition. I was able to lose about 25 pounds within this process. They have dealt with covid crisis professionally, safely and pivoting in innovative ways to deliver classes.
I will highly recommend this CrossFit gym !!! I signed up for a six week challenge and I am amazed by my results! I was able to get one on one coaching and was able to get modified workouts in order to build my strength and abilities to complete the workouts. It was not intimidating at all ! Everyday I walked in I was greeted with a smile as well as encouragement to try my best ! The trainers are highly motivating and will stand by you helping you get the best workout in ! I will suggest this challenge to anyone that needs guidance and encouragement to meet weight loss goals!
Shout out to my nutrition coach Drew McMillin who helped with my 30lbs + weight loss goal in 6 months. He was there to Guide me, and assist me in any way possible to help me achieve my goals and beyond. I hit some road bumps in the beginning but he was able to lend an ear and give me advice, motivation and knowledge to push me forward. I couldn't be more grateful for his time and efforts with me. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is struggling with their weight, nutrition or fitness. He's not a one trick pony he really knows his stuff! Thank you Drew!
Totally Legit! Accepted 6 week challenge and was great experience. Coach Jill & Coach Drew VERY dedicated to help in every way possible from running right by your side when you ready to give up to making themselves available after gym hours. In my short time there was able to loose 5% body fat & 7 lbs giving me confidence to continue my journey. Classes intense but Jill makes working out FuN. Meal plan does take some getting use to but information given on break down of proteins & amounts of carbs & fats to make you feel full is awesome. Thank you Drew & Jill
If you're looking for a sign to change your life for the better then this is it! I completed the 21 day challenge with the help of Drew and Rosa. I lost 19.4 lbs! The support from the coaches was amazing I couldn't have done it without their help. Drew is very knowledgeable, his plan works! I haven't felt this good in years. I'm very happy I decided to join. The way I feel and the compliments from others is priceless. This is only the beginning. If I did it you can do it too! I definitely recommend this place to family and friends. What are you waiting for?
Absolutely love this gym! I'd been wanting to check out crossfit workouts for quite some time and decided to take the leap with Crossfit Commitment. All of the coaches are great, and classes are kept small so you don't feel overwhelmed and get personalized attention. They train you well so even if you've never done powerlifting or it has been some time, they get you up to speed. The other members are great too and bring a great environment to the gym. If you're looking for an awesome workout with even better people, I highly recommend Crossfit Commitment.
I joined CFC for the 6 week challenge in hopes to lose weight and to turn my body fat into muscle. My focus was on losing the body fat, and I did lose like 3 percent BF by end of the challenge. Working out at CFC is fun and the trainers are highly motivating. Special thanks to Ricardo for keeping a close eye on my workouts and diet! The meal plan was good and easy to follow, but requires dedication! My experience has been so good that I signed up for the next six months! Definitely recommend joining CFC if you want a jump start into a healthy lifestyle.
The entire team is truly amazing, you’re always greeted with a smile and they make you feel at home with friends. They break down the steps for an exercise each time and are willing to modify any exercise of you have any joint issues. The trainers make sure to push you, which was awesome. Ricardo and Fabio would always do a great job or helping me find my max weight for an exercise. It wasn’t until this gym that I started to realize how strong I truly am. The members are friendly and helpful, always willing to help spot each other or answer a question.
I signed up for the 6 week challenge in hopes to lose weight and to turn my body fat into muscle. I got that and so much more. Drew and his team always made me feel welcomed and happy to see. I lost 9 pounds in 10 days, which made me happy to see results so fast. I lost a total of 16.9 pounds at the end of my six weeks. The meal plan was good and easy to follow but it took discipline. I enjoyed the workouts and the people in the classes; everyone was nice. My experience with the Crossfit team has been a life changing experience for me. Thanks so much!
Excellent program with excellent and caring coaches and trainers. I lost 12Lbs in only 21 days, while learning how to eat properly and work out from home. I actually learned all the things I was doing wrong, so with the corrections it made my weight loss journey even more successful. The personalized service was everything for me. From the initial start to the end of the 21 Day challenge it was all about me. No group meeting, No group work out, No group follow up. It was personalized to fit my weight loss needs. I Loved every second of this program.
Finding Transformation Fitness has been one of the highlights of my year! I've always struggled with motivation and consistency when it comes to working out, and I've never found a gym that I genuinely enjoyed until TF. For the first time in my life I look forward to working out and have seen such a huge change in my confidence, strength, and personal accountability. The coaches are friendly and great at what they do and the daily workout programs are incredibly effective. Would highly recommend TF and crossfit to anyone at any stage of fitness!
One thing that I will never regret is to take the 6 weeks challenge at the transformation fitness. which i reached my goal, from 14% body fat to 8% body fat, the dedication at the gym has been truly inspiring, resulting in an incredible transformation that reflects the hard work and commitment. The positive and supportive atmosphere created by those around me at the gym has undoubtedly played a significant role in my journey. Thank you Jill and drew for everything. the secret is to be consistent and Keep up the fantastic work!
I had an incredible experience at Transformation Fitness during their 6-week challenge. Not only did I achieve significant improvements in my upper body strength, but it also pushed me mentally, making it a rewarding and challenging journey. Even at the early hour of 7 am, the gym is filled with a vibrant and motivating energy that makes every workout feel like an adventure. The combination of a dedicated trainer and the camaraderie among participants ensures that every session is not only effective but also a whole lot of fun.
I recommend joining for people who are tired of not seeing results and need motivation. The coaches and atmosphere has blown me away! The coaches are committed to giving you the best experience you can have while also challenging how far you can take your workouts. They're friendly, approachable, and they accommodate the meal plan and workout to you and your fitness level. Super grateful to the coaches for all their guidance and encouragement. side note: love, love, love that they take music requests during classes!
I started my 6 week challenge being a little skeptical I tried other gyms other diets but long run didnt stick and didn't see results. With the help of the AMAZING coaches I was able to lose 6lbs my 1st week. Today was my last weight in for the 6 week challenge and I've lost 20lbs. I was super excited to see those numbers. I absolutly recommend crossfit commitment bc if your really wanna do it they provide you with all the tools you just HAVE to put in the work and you will see the best you in a couple of weeks!!
I hated going to gyms, but I absolutely love going to classes at Crossfit Commitment. The coaches are amazing and supportive. They will demo and explain every move and push you to do your best even if it is just one more rep. The classes are smaller so the coaches can help everyone. The workouts are challenging, but they are not impossible. And the best part is the people. Everyone is working hard and supporting each other. I started because of the 6-week challenge ad, but I stayed because I sincerely love it.
I joined this gym for the 6-week challenge and I can honestly say I love everything about it. The classes are challenging yet fun and keep you eager to come back again and again. I really loved the community that they have built with everyone there, it’s just a very welcoming place overall. The coaches that I got to have classes with were also amazing at teaching me how to do the workouts safely, properly and had the best energy. Overall this gym has been such a great experience and I can’t wait to go back!
I joined Transformation fitness 3 weeks ago for the 21 day challenge. I fell off from working out for almost a year and gained alot of weight especially during covid. I came across Transformation Fitness and signed up! Coach Drew and Ricardo are very supportive and help you set your goals and reach them! They helped me with my nutrition and got the ball rolling. Everyone at the gym is friendly and welcoming. I highly encourage people to come in and give it a try. From beginners to advance all are welcomed!
I have been a member here since they opened a few years ago. This is an amazing gym and community of people. The workouts are challenging but appropriately scaled to each individual's fitness level and needs. The coaches are smart, safe, and genuinely interested in the successes of their athletes. It can be intimidating to start at a new gym but CFC does everything possible to alleviate that fear. The workouts are what will get you in the door but the people will keep you coming back! It's a great gym!
Crossfit Commitment has been so awesome! I started off with the 6 week challenge and enjoyed it. It taught me a lot about healthy eating and learning the importance of a good diet. Ever since I started here, I have been able to feel more alert at work, my emotions feel regulated, and I feel my body improving in its endurance. The coaches are all really great and make sure you start at the necessary level and help you work your way up. The community and atmosphere of this gym is also really supportive!
Joined by doing the 6 week challenge and at the end I decided to become a member. I’ve been working out on my own for a few years but was not seeing the results that I wanted. With the help and motivation of the staff I was able to see the numbers on the scale go down, and see an increase in my strength. They provide nutrition advice, modify workouts and really push and motivate you. The members are friendly and helpful, definitely a team feeling! I’m happy I tried them out and even happier I stayed!
I joined CrossFit Commitment for their 6 week challenge and it was amazing. The classes are fun enough to keep you excited for the next class and yet still tough enough to always have you feeling sore afterward. The coaches really care and make sure that you are pushing yourself but not hurting yourself. I honestly can say that CrossFit will now always be a part of my life. I lost 20lb, 4.5 inches and 3.5% body fat in the past 6 weeks!! I can’t wait to see what I can accomplish in 6 months!
I participated in their 6 week transformation challenge and with the guidance and support from transformation fitness team I was was able to lose 17 lbs (~6% body fat) in 6 weeks! I had been struggling with my weight for years after multiple trial and errors this was the first program where I saw actually results. Everyone at the gym is super friendly and welcoming making you feel like you’re part of the family. I highly recommend this gym for those looking to start their fitness journey.
This was truly a positive experience in all ways possible. First it exposed my weakness and allowed me to build my strength with eating the right foods and portions. The 6 challenge was challenging BUT very motivating from texts, reminders, and the exercises. If you don't have a starting point transformation fitness is an excellent start and finisher. I promise you will not regret it. Jill and Drew are an amazing team that keeps you wanting to do more. Thank you Transformation Fitness!!!
The best experience! I just finished a 16 week transformation program working with the owner, Drew, and it was an incredible experience. I am so happy and proud with the results and the tools I was given! I completed the class remotely and personally just wanted to focus on the nutritional side of things while maintaining my normal workout routine (soccer a few times a week and walking.) I loved the weekly check-in calls that added a level of accountability. I could not recommend more.
Honestly do not know where to start! Nothing short of a life altering experience. I took the 6 week challenge and had great results to show for it. The coaches are amazing. You feel like a family when working out with them and everyone else in your class. If you have any issues following the meal plan or your workout schedule, the coaches will work with you personally to make sure you do not have the problems anymore. I am really impressed and want to continue as long as I can :)
This gym has been really great in helping me kickstart my journey with strength training and being more active. I loved taking the workout classes cause it kept me accountable and made me feel like I was on a team! Trainers Astin & Rosa have always made the classes fun, helped me challenge myself, and were more than happy to help if I have a question on my form! When you join Transformation fitness you gain a community who is invested in your health as much as you are
I can't give this place enough praise. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for a new gym in the Pilsen/University village area! I took part in the 6-week challenge and was very happy with the coaching, facilities, and results! Dropped 15 lbs safely during this time and roughly 3% body fat. Their instructors are knowledgeable, interactive, and receptive to all skill levels. If you are considering making a change, let Transformation Fitness be the catalyst for you!
Transformational Fitness is a great place for individuals looking to lose weight and build strength. The coaches and owners are knowledgeable, professional, and amazing at their jobs. The classes are fun and challenging all at the same. The nutritional guidance is phenomenal. I just completed the 21-day challenge and was was able to lose 16lbs and improve my overall health. I plan to continue being a part of the Transformational Fitness family and this health journey!
Joining the six-week challenge was the perfect opportunity to kick-start my fitness and health goals! I had amazing results, now feeling stronger and leaner. My clothes fit better and I feel amazing! The classes are challenging yet fun. I always looked forward to attending my next class. The coaches are very accommodating and motivating, helping you correct your form to make sure you are properly doing the exercise. I would definitely recommend CrossFit Commitment!
I joined transformation fitness 5 weeks ago and did their 21 day challenge and currently doing their nutritional program. This place has been amazing and have lost 12 pounds since I joined. Their programs and coaches have truly transformed my eating , exercise, and way of thinking towards losing weight. The gym is a great facility and the coaches are super knowledgeable. I love working out and they definitely keep you motivated with their specialized routines.
I joined Transformation Fitness 2 months ago, I did the 6-week challenge I lost weight with increased energy I have amazing results. They have a great team drew is very knowledgeable about the meal plans, training sessions drew has helped with a plan meal that I was able to stick with. Also Rosa has been helpful as well. I feel so happy, I have so much fun and enjoy watching my progress over time. Drew and rosa are an amazing team!!!
After over a year of being out of any sort of organized fitness regiment, I decided enough was enough and I decided to try the 21-day challenge at TF. I lost 6 pounds in 21 days through their combination of nutrition guidance (you eat a lot; just clean and smart), focus on fitness and accountability. The coaches are knowledgable and easy to work with; the vibe is laid back and supportive. Glad I decided to give TF a try and happy to be an official member!
I highly recommend Transformation Fitness! I did the 6 week challenge and lost 7lbs with the help and support of Drew, Rosa and their team. The coaches are super friendly and helpful, and hold you accountable to show up to class and stick to the meal plan. Classes are very accessible even if you haven’t worked out in a while, and it’s very exciting to see the results of the hard work you put in. I feel lucky to have found this gym with such great people!
I joined Transformation Fitness 3 months ago and it was one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. Since joining I have lost 20 pounds and have gotten significantly stronger. The workouts are fun and very team-oriented with coaches and members alike (always pushing us but also knowing our limits!). I was out of shape and nervous to join, but the coaches know how to make us feel comfortable as all fitness levels are welcome. Highly recommend!
I would recommend Transformation Fitness to anyone interested. I discovered this location when I decided to join their 21 day challenge. In 21 days, I was able to lose a total of 9 pounds. I really enjoyed their small class sizes. They followed all the covid safety protocols. The workouts where fun and intense. The coaches, staff and memberships were all very supportive and friendly. I encourage you to try the challenge and check them out yourself.
Just successfully finished the 6 week challenge!! Huge thanks to Franco, Drew and the entire cross fit team for helping me to achieve my goal. It was a great experience from start to finish. Everything from the meal plan, workouts and weekly check-ins, set you up for success. It was easy to fit in and meet new people from day one. I would highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a challenge,great results, and a great place to workout.
Drew and his team of trainers are great! They help with accountability and a great source of knowledge. I came in with a whole list of injuries and they were able to show me alternatives and the strength training I learned helped build strength and lessen pain from my knee and back injuries. No longer attending classes because I moved to another neighborhood, but will be taking what I learned here to my future workouts and fitness endeavors.
I came to CrossFit Commitment as part of the six-week challenge and have decided to stay on as a member! The coaches are awesome and encouraging, even for beginners like me! It's been great being able to see results - clothes fit better, I feel better, and I feel stronger! Definitely recommend trying out the six-week challenge if you want a taste of CFC. I'm looking forward to see what more I can push my body to do with the support of CFC!
I just finished my 6 week challenge and I couldn't be any more happier with my results. The trainers are hands on and motivate you to reach your goals. They teach you how to properly workout and even help you meal prep. For couple years, I have tried to get in shape but nothing seems to work. Until I found crossfit, I managed to lose lbs and body fat. If you are serious about getting fit, I would definitely recommend crossfit commitment!!
Just finished my 6 week challenge with this awesome team. If you are looking to discipline your eating habits and workout schedule, this is the place to get on track with all of that. Coaches and owners are all very welcoming. As a team they help you reach your goal with a positive disposition. By the end of this challenge, I was able to get in shape and reach the lowest Body Fat percentage of my life (7.5%!!!). Thanks again everyone1
I just finished my 21 days challenge, and I succeed to lose 12.6 Ib. To be honest, this is the place that I was looking for, place where I can get personal attention and most Important for me, personal follow up, I'm really happy that I finally found the gym that will help me to achieve my goal and keep me motivated. Regarding the Coaches and other stuff, they're professional and Expert. Personally, I love Transformation Fitness.
Awesome. Awesome place. Awesome coaches. Awesome members. I just completed the 6 week challenge and lost 24 lbs and 2.9% body fat. Coaches are so encouraging and motivating. They adjust the workout to meet you skills while still making it challenging. The members are great as well making you feel welcome and included while praising your accomplishments. After not stepping foot in a gym for 8 years this was a great welcome back.
The one best decision I took this year was joining the crossfit. After 6 weeks of the challenge, and looking at myself , I can say that this is one of the best workout that I have done. With a healthy meal plan and motivation by the coaches all the time, the workouts will be a piece of cake. Crossfit is not a “myth” and I would recommend everyone who wants to be in shape while maintaining healthy lifestyle at the same time !!
I started in mid March for the 6 week challenge and the first week I was able to do 3 different classes with 3 different coaches and they were all great. Then corona hit and we all have to stay in but the guys at CFC are on top of it and keeping us motivated at home with online zoom classes. They also got together with other gyms to link us with yoga, Zumba, boxing and many more classes at no extra cost to the membership.
Coaches are amazing and upbeat. They keep you motivated and push you to finish the workout. The workouts are always changing so you will always be challenged!I completed the six week challenge in which I lost 23.6 pounds. If you are looking for a challenge and a change this is the place to go. Love the accountability and the meal plans which are tailored towards your needs. This is a place to go. You will not be sorry.
I started this “challenge” journey the beginning of last month with 4 weeks to rid myself of 13 pounds. I have completed the 4 weeks and have lost a resounding 14.4 pounds!!! Drew and Jill are outstanding motivators and coaches. The classes were excellent! Jill, stays on top and checks in to keep you on track. This is an AWESOME program!! I recommend everyone check it out!!! It’s worth the time and money!!
wat a wonderful experience. each session was exciting with a more intense challenge to face. I learned so many different ways to exercise and train my muscles. i cannot wait until my next training session here. the coach JILL she is everything and she’s no joke *geeesh* I’m still in pain from all around the world lunges. Lol . It’s well worth the experience Jill… I’ll be back Drew thank you all again
I’ve been going to transformation fitness for a couple of months now and can say I highly recommend it. Jill, the main trainer is amazing and keeps everyone motivated. The classes are group classes but if they see that you have different goals/are a different place in fitness, they’ll suggest doing different exercises. Overall a great place with an awesome community. I wish I’d started going sooner.
If you want a gym and environment that is warm, welcoming and genuine about your personal fitness goals then this is the place :)! My only regret is that I haven't joined Transformation Fitness sooner. This place is more than just getting a workout in during the week-it's really a great community with people who care about your overall health and well being. Def not a booshy place which I love! <3
I've been a member at CFC for almost 2 years now. I am so incredibly grateful for the supportive community this gym provides. All of the trainers are attentive to helping set personalized fitness goals, and advising specifically on how to progress monitor and achieve them. Since joining CFC, my overall mental and physical wellness has improved significantly. Very proud to be here. #morethanagym
My experience at Transformation, Fitness was amazing the push and encouragement that I got from Jill working out three days a week for checking in and encouragement.The investment and pouring into from Drew every week made the difference they really made me feel like my weight loss was important to them not to mention after four weeks of working out I was able to start running 2 miles a week
I've driven by many times and had an opportunity to check them out. I tried working out on my own and worked with a personal trainer in the past, but it was much more fun to workout in a group. All the coaches are amazing and still give you 1-1 attention. The members are supportive and also help encourage you. It's a great way to take on challenging workouts that lead to results.
I love how supportive and encouraging all the coaches are. I was definitely nervous going in but everyone is so nice and I never had an uncomfortable experience. I did see results after 6 weeks and it has motivated me to keep going with my fitness journey. Doing the 6 week challenge was definitely a great experience and not only do you lose weight you gain a lot of confidence.
I recommend the 6-week challenge at Transformation Fitness. It gave me the support and accountability I needed to re-set my health journey (and lose 6.9lbs). The challenge is well-rounded and totally doable. It gets you on track with movement, workouts, diet, and hydration. The classes at the gym are fun and challenging. The atmosphere is diverse, welcoming, and accepting.
I'm leaving Transformation Fitness after 18 months as a member with nothing but good things to say. Throughout my time coaches have pushed me to grow physically and mentally and I'm a better athlete because of it. The classes are well managed and the workouts are balanced. The space and equipment area clean and well maintained. TF is great for athletes of all levels!
When I first started I was very nervous. I never been a gym type of guy. Now I can honestly say I’m a more comfortable in the gym then I ever been. Working with a group of individuals that help you do better who cheer you on, it like a Gym Family. I was 180 when I started now I’m 160 they will help you with meal planning and all, I recommen anyone to come join here.
I had an amazing experience with CrossFit Commitment . I just completed the 6 week challenge with 13 pounds gone and 2 inches off off it waist. I acknowledge the hard work I put in, and am thankful for the support and encouragement I received from their amazing staff to help me get there. I'm excited to continue my journey as a new member with CrossFit Commitment!
This gym is by far the best gym I have ever been to. I just completed my six week challenge, and happy to say I reached my goal. The coaches are the nicest you will ever meet. They will help you along the way and check in on you to make sure your on track to meet your goals. Don’t think about it twice give this gym a try and I assure you will not be disappointed.
I did the 6 weeks challenge and I couldn’t be happier with my results. I lost 5% body fat thanks to the help of the coaches and the nutrition plan given. All the coaches are really attentive, checking your form all the time, pushing you to do better and motivating you. I will recommend it to anybody that is ready to commit and achieve their goals.
Franco and Drew are great! They really care and want to help you succeed and meet are goals you have set for yourself. I have not worked out in years and they are great coaches and guides, making sure your form and posture is correct, especially when lifting weights. I am really glad and proud to be part of the Crossfit Commitment family.
This was my first gym experience. I recently took on the 6-week challenge. The team took time to help me get acquainted with the exercises and were extremely accommodating when modifications were necessary for me to have the most effective workout. After 6 weeks of dedication and hard work, I lost 14.6 lbs. Thank you Transformation Fitness!!!
Amazing CrossFit Community here at Transformation Fitness in Pilsen, Chicago. The classes are fun and productive, the coaches are on top of their workout plans, and there's amazing support and guidance for nutrition along with consistent workouts. Highly recommend Transformation Fitness to others aspiring for a healthy lifestyle change!
I highly recommend this gym to anyone interested in starting or continuing their fitness journey. I did the 21 day challenge and lost weight even amid a vacation. I’m new to weight training but the coach and members were very supportive and patient with me. I learned a lot and I appreciate the small class sizes and covid precautions.
Congratulations to me for finishing the Transformation 6-week Challenge! I lost 13 lbs. & 2% body weight because of their fantastic staff’s hard work and dedication to helping me with my health and fitness goals! I definitely recommend giving them a try if you’re trying to transform your eating and exercise habits! Great experience!
Just got done with my 21 day challenge and very happy with the results. I was looking to get leaner and I lost 4 pounds. The environment is great if you are looking for challenging and diverse workouts. Here you never get bored and will have the support of the coaches and members to motivate you to give your best.
I joined Transformation Fitness after being in a 2 month slump of not working out. Jill is a great coach! She pushes everyone in the group setting but she also knows everyone’s individual goals and strengths. If something seems easy, Jill will change it up and push you beyond your limits! I feel great! …
I can’t say enough great things about Transformation Fitness. I signed up for the 21 day challenge. The virtual workouts were great and the meal plan was easy to follow. The coaches, owner and members could not have been nicer or more supportive. I lost 9.2 pounds. I highly recommend checking them out.
I had a great time and beautiful experience. Coach Jill was incredible, she got patience and she is a great listener. Overall I enjoyed my 6 weeks with new friends. Running was not my thing when I started at the end Transformation fitness worked magic . Thank you so much Drew and Jill. …
