We have a wonderful instructor. The workout is challenging and does not make me look for an emergency room after each class. The rates are great. The space very nice and well-equipped. We clean all the items we use and can wear a mask.

CrossFit Paradox is the first CrossFit gym I have worked out in. I visited one other CrossFit gym before visiting and ultimately choosing CrossFit Paradox. Why did I ultimately choose CrossFit Paradox? It wasnt a single thing that made me choose it, it was literally everything that made me choose it!! For starters the gym itself is well kept and clean and everyone is friendly. It is a place of acceptance and growth. You come as you are and are supported and encouraged on your fitness journey. As a young woman with a physical handicap I will tell you that this is HUGE!! With my physical limitations I wasnt sure if I would be successful at CrossFit but I wanted to give it a try. I met with JR who is director of training and we came up with a plan, he showed me I could do pretty much everything with just a little adjustment here and there. JRs knowledge of all things CrossFit, how the body moves, and how to adapt things for each individual is amazing!! CrossFit Paradox single handedly opened a whole new world to me that I wasnt sure was possible and to me that is EVERYTHING!

Wonderful experience! First time going since the pandemic started and it is a very clean place. Masks are worn. Tyler is a great instructor! I am looking forward to another class.

Its a clean and quiet gym which really allows me to focus on what matters. The staff and other guests are also very respectful and are good about maintaining the place.

Really good people with really good trainers. You cant go wrong with them!

The place got great atmosphere, first time there and I will be back. Training and help is what got me going harded at my level

Great, knowledgeable trainers and staff make this a positive and encouraging place to workout! Also they offer a nice variety of classes and a clean facility!

I love the staff! They are very helpful when I have questions. They start conversations which is nice also instead of going into a quiet gym. Every person I’ve come across here is nice. The gym is clean too.

I love the convenience of this gym. The staff is very nice and professional. The equipment are very well taken care of. Nothing worn out or broken.

CrossFit Paradox has been my gym for over 4 years now. I love the sense of community at this gym full of passionate people of all ages and all ability levels. I learn something new every day, and am so happy to have finally found a place to work out where I always feel welcome, never feel judged, and where I actually look forward to working out!

Ive been coming here for about 6 months now, and have loved it so far. JR and the coaches have been great, and I have seen a lot of progress in just a few months. Would highly recommend this place for anyone in the area looking for a great gym!

As a father to 4 kiddos all under the age of 9 -- my time is precious! Im able to come in and train with high intensity and high efficiency, giving me the max results I need, under one-hour. Led by seasoned trainers and a great team environment, makes CrossFit Paradox a natural choice.

This CrossFit place is a true gem in Downers Grove. The trainers are A+ grade, the facility is spacious enough to get quality work and the overall atmosphere is by far one of the best. I highly recommend this place to people who are serious about bringing their workout routine to another level.

This gym is stellar! Ive only been a member for 2 months, but I love everything about it. There is a different workout every session, and the coaches are very supportive and knowledgeable. Plus, all the members seem very friendly and encouraging.

I have been a member of Crossfit Paradox for over three years now. I cant say enough about how great both the staff and other members are. They keep the workouts varied and intense but make sure it is manageable for all skill levels. They are always hosting events and encouraging members to make the most out of the experience. In a busy world this gym has helped me get into the best shape of my life and still look forward to going to the gym as much as I can.

I just started coming here a month ago and have really enjoyed it. I have not lived weights in years. The instructors are great with beginners and are continuously coaching. Would definitely recommend!

Decent gym. Has everything a normal person who workouts would want.

Ive lost weight and built better fundamentals through this box. The coaches are motivational and the other members are great people to see daily. I highly recommend this place if youre looking to get out of your old fitness routine.

Awesome box with great programming! When I moved to the area over a year ago I was nervous switching boxes, but paradox made me feel right at home. The members and coaches are so friendly and always willing to help!

Joining Paradox 10 months ago has pulled me out of my soccer playing and distance running comfort zone in the best way possible. Ive become a better overall athlete thanks to the great and patient coaches and challenging workouts.

I trialed 2 other crossfits. This one is by far my favorite. They are organized with the free class process. They work to make sure you have proper form. Even see them doing it with members who have been going for a while. Ali and katie are great, they make you feel welcome and enjoy what they do. Good music, good environment and great coaches!

New to crossfit . After two years of having back surgery I was afraid to start working out again. The instructors took the time to show me modifications when or where I needed it. They do offer a class for beginners but I will say ALL the classes i have attended not only do the instructors make me feel comfortable but those participating in the class encourage and support one another. Not only is it a great workout but it allows you to workout at your own level .

I’m new to CrossFit. I like the workouts. Staffs and members are welcoming and supportive. I’ve never felt so strong and energetic. I like the feeling of going home all sweaty (sometimes shaky) it feels like I really did something intense. Members has varied fitness levels so you’ll not feel left out. Will definitely stick around.

Great place to work out, cheaper among others, good maintenance, got all the equipment and friendly staff

Have been going for 4 months now. Great gym and amazing staff. If you are looking to get into better shape, improve mobility, increase strength or anything similar...I highly recommend it.

The week trial on Groupon certainly helped make my decision to try Paradox out, but I liked it so much Ive been a member for nearly a year now. The coaches know what theyre talking about, and you always get in a great workout!

Awesome atmosphere at this box! The coaches are always helpful teaching you until you learn 100% correct each movement. I recommend Crossfit Paradox!

I’ve been with Crossfit Paradox for 6 months and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever madeThe coaches are great and they always strive to encourage you to be better. I love the variety of the workouts - it never gets boring.

I purchased a Groupon in June for CrossFit Paradox to try CrossFit for the first time. I havent been an athlete in 25 years and was hesitant because of the reputation of CrossFit as a Bro mentality, and high risk of injury.I chose Paradox over other boxes because rather than a completely separate program for beginners, they have beginner classes mixed with more experienced athletes. It is inspiring when people tell you at the end of class how far they have come. The coaches are amazing! They are helpful, knowledgeable and give you a realistic perspective on what you should be doing, focusing on form and range of motion over weight and PRs. A month and a half in I was injured(not related to CrossFit) and they helped me modify my workouts and made special accommodations so I wouldnt have to stop. It was awesome!If you are thinking of trying CrossFit, I highly recommend checking them out. It is a great, positive, and friendly environment and a great place to workout. I also recommend the Pee-Wee classes for kids. My seven year old loves the gym, the coaches, and workouts. He does not like team sports and this has been an amazing experience for him! Coach is amazing with the kids, and has the patience of a saint. One of the best gym experiences I have ever had.

I love this place. My wife and I started coming here from a 10 pass groupon and really enjoy the environment, atmosphere, coaches and equipment. Everyone is super nice and ready to help newbies like myself. Definitely recommend if you live in the area.

Joining Crossfit Paradox was one of the best decisions I ever made. The coaches and the members at Crossfit Paradox will push you to be your best self. Great programming and scaling for all levels of fitness. Ive been a member since 2012 and love the feeling of community at our gym.

Crossfit Paradox changed my life. I started over three years ago and never looked back. The community here is so supportive and knowledgeable with a coaching staff that is always willing to go the extra mile with you. Come give it a try I strongly recommend Crossfit Paradox.

Excellent programming with a very personable staff and a group of members that you cannot beat. I love this place.

I have been going to this gym for little over a year. Great place with great people and great coaches. I Recommend it.

Excellent programming with a very personable staff and a group of members that you cannot beat. I love this place.

Crossfit Paradox DG is fantastic! The atmosphere is great. Everyone is encouraging and supportive. I really cant say enough about it. You will have to check it out for yourself.

Ive noticed myself getting stronger and my body changing in just the few months Ive started going. LOVE this place!

Being a member for the past 4 months. I’ve had a great time meeting new people and getting through fun WODs. The coaches give great advice, and work through needed movements each day.

The synergy built from performing difficult workout with others was rewarding.Crossfit Paradox rekindled my desire to workout, and reminded me that I can achieve a desired physique.

I like CrossFit Paradox, good trainers with good motivation and help you to see the results faster!!! Definitely i recommend 👍

Family friendly staff that promotes positive behavior in & out of the classes...

Absolutely love this place! The instructors were so welcoming and helpful since I was a complete newbie to CrossFit!

Crossfit paradox has change my life and the way I see fitness. The coaches are amazing!

As a new member to Crossfit Paradox, Im very pleased with the trainers and the workouts. Great location across from the Metra, good facility, good atmosphere, and GREAT workout!

The new owner rocks. Great community and great training. Even in group classes I get one on one training to help me take my lifts to the next level.

This is a great gym! Wonderful people, helpful training staff and an encouraging environment.

Great gym, great people and they give you free water. I mean who doesnt like free water?

Its okay - they run WOD and thats about it. Not much hands-on adjustment or coaching so if you just need some peer to motivate beyond simply getting a WOD online yourself, this can be the place for you. They offer one week access for free.

Crossfit Paradox truly has something for everyone. Whether you have been doing crossfit for years or you want to try it for the first time, this gym is so welcoming. I went to my first class in June after purchasing a Groupon, and I was kind of intimidated. Everyone around me seemed stronger and more fit! But I was immediately hooked. Allie and Katie walk the beginners through every move and know how to push you to just the right level. Plus, the other members are always giving each other words of support and praise. Definitely a SUPPORTIVE community. Plus, the workouts are challenging but fun. I highly recommend Crossfit Paradox!

I try crossfit for the first time,ilike a lot and i did the sing in,great workout intense, very good professional coaches,i really recommend crossfit paradox

Great program, great coaches. Would recommend!

I used to do Crossfit about 2 years ago and fell off the wagon. As a female, Crossfit can be pretty intimidating to start (for me anyway). I can easily get discouraged to even walk in the door. Not at Paradox though. The classes I went to had two female coaches that were not only positive and encouraging, they broke all the lifts and moves down at the beginning of each class (and work with you individually if you are still not feeling great about it.) Ali’s energy is amazing! And Katie always seems to have an eye on you should she need to tell you to make corrections. I’d recommend this box to anyone, whether you are new to Crossfit or experienced. It’s a comfortable group and I look forward to working out now.

I joined Crossfit Paradox in April and it has been the best decision Ive ever made. I joined because I gained a lot of weight the previous year and was looking for guidance in implementing a healthier lifestyle. I was extremely scared and felt intimidated when I first walked into the gym because it seemed like everyone had a six pack and could lift my body weight over their heads repeadetly. I was quickly greeted and assured that they could modify anything to my ability level and that everyone was friendly, encouraging, and motivating- I was skeptical about all of that because of prior experiences in gyms. I still signed up for their free class and figured that if I made a complete fool of myself, theyd never have to see me again. I made a complete fool of myself during the first session, however, everyone kindly reminded me that they had similar first day experiences when they began and that I should keep doing it because I could only get better if I continued. I continued and got a membership. I am now 30 lbs. lighter and healthier. Ive also gained muscle. When I first began, I had 98 lbs. of muscle in my body and as of September, I have 112 lbs of muscle. I didnt do this alone. These results are because of the amazing support from every member. Ive never, in my entire life, had a group of people cheer me on when Im finishing last, until I came to Crossfit Paradox. Ive had members sit, stand, and run next to me and encourage me to push through when I was ready to give up. These people and this place are amazing and if youre thinking about taking a dive in crossfit, come here! You will not be disappointed. The prices are very competitive in comparison with other places, and they offer introductory classes which are truly helpful. The owner is welcoming and he, and his amazing coaches, will make your body do things you didnt know it could do!

CrossFit Paradox has amazing workouts that never feel repetitive. The staff is also extremely friendly and informative.

Great gym with knowledgeable staff and fun members

Great Gym!

Awesome community and great programming.

Solid crossfit box.
