I never thought I would join a CrossFit gym, but one class and I was hooked. Love love love the coaches there who value safety and focus on techniques to make sure that I get the most out of my work out. I go at my own pace and scale down to a weight that I feel comfortable. The work out routines are fun and never boring. I don’t go as often as I should because of scheduling conflicts, but I am in the best shape of my life.

Ive been attending CrossFit classes at this place for many years and wouldnt go anywhere else. The people are great, the values are in sync with my own, and the instructors always focus on correct movement and appropriate scaling. CrossFit Homeward has also stuck with the science on masking and COVID protocols since reopening after the initial phase of the pandemic, which I appreciate very much.

I’ve been doing CrossFit for nine years. Been a member of several “boxes“, and I’ve also dropped in while traveling to many others around the world. What makes a good CrossFit experience? I’ve come to some conclusions:1. Good coaching. It should seem obvious, but you’d be surprised at the huge variance in quality coaching between CrossFit boxes. I’m happy to report that Crossfit Homeward has superb coaches, who are all very focused on you doing things safely, and with an eye to your improvement.2. Good programming. The universe of things you can do in CrossFit is quite large, and it’s important that you’re exposed to it all. Not only that, but the programming on a daily basis needs to fit into a weekly plan, a monthly goal, and an over-arching thread that makes you as fit as you can be. Crossfit Homeward is dedicated to making sure those metrics are achieved.3. A great community. Part of the experience of doing really hard things on a repetitive basis, is the camaraderie that you experience with others around you. Crossfit Homeward has a diverse community in many respects, including a wide variety of ages. That effort to build a community comes from the top, and the owners of Homeward are dedicated to creating an environment that you want to come back to.4. During Covid, many Crossfit boxes failed. Homeward did not. Continuously evolving with the science, and adjusting to members needs, they were singularly committed to ensuring that you had a variety of ways, and venues, to keep training. I can’t overstate how meaningful this was.

I honestly don’t know about their facility but I was just almost ran off the road by one of their vans I was trying to get over before the lane ended I turned on my turn signal and as I was starting to get over they sped up and would not let me over and almost had me runoff the road the license plate was ECS 3915 it was on I-40 at 9:30pm on Saturday night 9/4/2021 but I would not join a gym that does not care about road safety and thinks it ok to make people almost wreck on the road

This place is awesome. I moved to Chapel Hill in July and it’s been my new home. Great coaches; some of the best I’ve had. Professional, fun, and attentive. Owners are super involved and you can tell they love what they do. Can’t recommend it more highly!

I started at this gym, being new to CrossFit. The instructors are so helpful and really teach you the proper form and technique. Autumn is awesome! Shes fun, friendly, and very knowledgeable (I mean, she did study exercise and sports science). Ive tried other CrossFit gyms, but because of her, I love coming to Homeward. I love their workouts too!

Really friendly gym with a great community. My first day dropping in to check it out, the owner came in specifically to meet me even though I came to a 6 AM class--shows how much she really cares about her members. I particularly enjoy classes with the coaches who demonstrate not only a knowledge of physical exercise, but the human body, and what you need to do to keep it functioning healthily and safely. Been here since July and going strong!

We love CrossFit Homeward! Our son participates in the youth performance training class and loves it. During the baseball season his baseball team holds indoor practice there once per week, which has been great.

Excellent training and atmosphere. I started from zero and have felt supported, encouraged, and cared about from minute one. This gym is so welcoming and the owners and coaches are incredible people. I genuinely hate missing a day! I have gained strength, endurance and mobility, and said goodbye to constant knee pain and hello to improved balance. The only injury Ive had pushing this middle-aged-mom bod pretty hard throughout 2017 happened when I was running with my dog on the trail. (She tripped me!) The coaches at Homeward keep you safe as you challenge yourself. Highly recommend!

Ive been a member since Homeward opened and its my home for Crossfit. Coaches and members are always so friendly and the programming continues to evolve and offer me a challenge. They also continue to offer open gym and are open 7 days a week which I really appreciate.

Crossfit Homeward is simply the best! Ive been a regular during the 7AM endurance class for the past 2 years and it is a BLAST (minus the burpees..)! I truly look forward to working out every morning with the endurance crew. No matter your level of fitness, Homeward makes you feel at home!

Crossfit Homeward is your final destination for fitness and happiness. I know that sounds like an absurd exaggeration, but let me explain. Homewards extensive variety of workouts and therapies are complemented by a community of some of the most generous people youll meet. Not only will you get a top-notch and challenging fitness routine, youll be guided through it by people who are invested in keeping you injury-free. This is the best place to come, whether youre a Crossfit newbie or an old pro. Newbies, the environment here is encouraging. You never have to feel like youre sub-par or worry about things you cant do: trainers work with you at your pace on everything. Seasoned veterans, you will be challenged! This place provides me with a daily shot of therapy, and Ive heard others call it their safe place. Why? Because we all sweat and laugh together.Contemporary research abounds on the ability of exercise and communal ties to increase ones quality of life and reduce a host of diseases. Homeward is unquestionably the best place to get the robust dosages of both community and exercise that make life healthier and sweeter.

I have been connected to and involved in many CrossFit communities at many levels throughout the organizations. I have to say, this one is by far the best. The leadership within CrossFit Homeward have values of transparency, clarity, intentionality, community, and evidenced based programming.All of the movements can be scaled and individualized to meet your needs (whether brand new to CrossFit or very experienced) without it feeling weird in a group. This is true for people of all sizes, shapes, and strength levels.They have amazing non-WOD opportunities INCLUDED in your membership. Their Kettlebell classes, Essentials classes, Durability classes, and general programming are all so- so wonderful.Their general culture of integrity and accountability throughout all levels of the organization creates the kind of environment where feedback is implemented at all levels - and everyone involved is growing for the better.If you are looking for a CrossFit that has a community of genuinely wonderful people who want to grow, learn, get healthy, and connect, then this is the place to find it. If you want a fun community where the people are smart and engaging, this is the place to find it. I laughed a lot. I worked a lot. I learned a lot.At Homeward, you actually become better while supported in a safe and open environment.

Its hard to find a better gym that CF Homeward. The coaches are welcoming, the community is fun, exciting, inclusive, and hard-working, the manager is always present and greets everyone with a smile, and the owners are always keeping their eyes and ears open for how to make the gym even more awesome.The programming generally follows classic CF programming - lift, skill, metcon - though weve gone through various cycles to emphasize certain skills or muscle groups (powerlifting, Oly-style weightlifting, KB, etc), and its very obvious how much thought goes into the programming. They also have other programs - endurance, youth, KB, mobility, etc.And to boot, they have massage therapists, 2 PTs, and other body work professionals IN HOUSE. Its like a one-stop shop for getting awesome. Cant recommend it enough!
