★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Was in Chicago for a week doing some work, and this was the closest CrossFit location, and man did I luck out. Neil, the owner, was very helpful via both email and text getting me in and setup for the week, and the fee was quite reasonable (especially compared to some Boxes I've visited on work trips). I was even there for the 24.2 CrossFit open days. What a treat.If I'm back working in Chicago, I'll for sure be visiting CrossFit CE :-)
March 11 · Patrick HaggertyGot a call from a man who goes by the name "AZ". He reached out to me after submitting my information online. He was very informative with the program and was able to answer all of my questions. Very pleasant gentleman to speak with and helped me figure out which class would be best. Excellent customer service!
May 06 · Robert VondrasekI joined CE right as people started going back to gyms after COVID and I felt that they were very compliant and kept the facility immaculate. I always felt comfortable coming to the gym and that they were taking things seriously. When I joined, I had no idea how amazing the community it would be. Every gym boasts that their community is the best, but this is truly the best community I have been a part of.
May 17 · Marquette GasserJust restarted Crossfit after a 2 year hiatus and this box is fantastic. Great facility, great coaches, and great community that welcomes you instantly. The coaches work with you to make sure you challenge yourself but at the same time scale each movement appropriately. If you are thinking about starting Crossfit or considering joining this box, you won't regret this place. I certainly haven't
December 21 · Omar DaudThis is the sixth CrossFit gym that I have been a member of and can confidently say it's one of the best. The programming is top-tier. The coaches are knowledgeable and are capable of coaching all ranges/tiers of athletes - from beginner to competitive. But what makes CE standout above the other gyms I've been a member at is the community. From the start we were warmly welcomed into the gym and community. Whether it's planned community events such as Wine/Whiskey and WOD or simply grabbing brunch after a Saturday workout, CE has a community that will reel you in.
