This place has the friendliest people and the most knowledgeable staff!! Always such a great experience! I would certainly recommend visiting to give this place a try; youll love it and will want to become a regular too!!!
I am 72 years of age and have been a member for 5 years. I love FCAF. The coaches are brilliant. They are well trained, well educated, “people-people”. They love what they do and how to work with athletes of all ages, sizes, shapes, and kinds. I am in better shape than when I was in my 40’s because of them. They are community builders extraordinaire. The people I work out with and my coaches have become dear friends. My life is so much better because of FCAF. By the way-you don’t have to be 72 years old to join-they also have classes for you young jocks!!
Great place! Awesome coaches, good variety in the workouts, and welcoming environment.
This place has changed my body and my life. I went from pain every day to being able to physically handle things I definitely couldnt do before. My husband has said how great my progress has been since working on building strength here. Do yourself a favor and make the investment in your body and your future! Theyll help you take it at your own pace. Thank you so much!
I was never a gym person and I had never done CrossFit (Im 47) and now I go every week. This gym has something for everybody - no matter what your fitness level is. If youre looking for a gym to get stronger, receive best in class professional instruction and encouragement, and a community of supportive and fun people, Fort Collins Athlete Factory is hands down the best. The founder and owner, Justin, is top notch and he and his staff take care of us.
This was my first experience with cross-fit. The coaches are very knowledgeable and work one on one to make sure youre not overworking yourself or hurting yourself. I truly look forward to every workout. The members are like a second family always supporting each other. They have set the bar very high.
The best gym!! Excellent coaches and a fun, supportive community. Whether you are a beginner or competitor the coaches provide expert advice and are committed to helping you meet your individual goals. When you look forward to going to the gym, you know you are going to the right place.
Great gym with wonderful coaches! It is amazing what you can accomplish when you are shown the correct way to perform each exercise. Even if you have performed the exercises before they show you how to improve and get more out of your daily workout.
Best gym for all ages and all levels. The coaching staff helps you tailor your workout for your fitness and your goals. Super supportive and fun community too!
Great Gym, Justin and his team do a great job.I have been working out on and off with Justin for about 4 years. He has always taken the time to get to know his athletes and their needs. Programming can always be scales to meet everyones needs. I definitely recommend working out here!!!!
The Athlete Factory is awesome! Top notch coaching and a community of fun, encouraging people make this a fantastic place to work out. Coach Justin is among the most qualified Olympic Weightlifting coaches in Northern Colorado and his lifting classes are particularly great.
I’ve been to a lot of boxes in the Denver and northern Colorado area and finally found a home in FCAF. From the minute I walked in I had people introducing themselves and immediately felt like it was home. Justin’s got the knowledge backed by the experience and certifications... plus, I drive an hour and 20 minutes to get there so they must be doin somethin right!
The feel of personal training with the support of an amazing community. Coach Justin goes above and beyond the call of duty, each and every day, to ensure that his athletes are meeting the goals they have set in the most safe and effective way. If you want to take your fitness to the next level, FCAF is the place you need to be.
I’ve really enjoyed working with Justin for the past couple years. His encouragement, pushing, and emphasis on form and safety have helped me accomplish things I️ wouldn’t have done independently. I’m looking forward to continued challenges and achievements for myself and my family at FCAF.
Expertly designed workouts that are tailored to each participants needs. Welcoming environment. Highly recommended!
FCAF is run by one of the best people Ive ever met. Justin knows how to motivate just about anyone, and knows each person needs it a different way. He knows what hes doing, and is willing to help in any way he can. His crossfit knowledge is superior, and the gym has already grown leaps and bounds. Well worth going to!!!
Its hard to oversell Justin as a coach and mentor. The individual attention and his depth of knowledge helped me improve in ways I would have never gotten to alone. If you really want to push your fitness, you cannot find a better option.On top of that, FCAF has a phenomenal community. Whether its hosting BBQs or just grabbing beers, it is a place where people know and care about each other.The combo of the top level coaching and community easily made this one of the best athletic experiences Ive had.
Best gym in Fort Collins! I’ve never felt more at home in a gym. The coaches and the community are the best!
There is something for everyone here--from teens to seniors. Justin Thompson knows how to individualize a workout to meet your unique fitness goals.
I have been apart of the FCAF community for just over a year and I wouldnt want to be apart of any other family. The coaching staff knows safe fundamental movements that everyone can perform. They are always accommodating to everyones needs. All of the people that workout there I consider my friends and family. FCAF is my home away from home.
Awesome CrossFit, great coaches and amazing community!!
I’ve worked with Coach Justin for a few years and I see the time and dedication that he puts in for each of his athletes. He is able to help you reach any goal wether it be competing, weight management, or just improving your overall fitness. FCAF has such a fun, motivating community of people it makes you look forward to working out.
Great coaches and people!
I started my CrossFit journey a little over four years ago. CrossFit is one of those workout programs that can be pretty intense but can help you achieve goals that you thought were out of your reach. It is one of those topics that you’ll find people with strong opinions on both sides. My take on it, it’s not the program of CrossFit that should be under scrutiny, it’s the coaches!Four years ago I ran into Justin and his desire to help his athletes reach their goals in a safe way is why I continue to be a part of his organization. We had a workout years back that involved deadlifts and wall ball shots with a decent amount of reps and a moderate weight. In the middle of the workout, I was returning to the bar for my deadlifts and I saw Justin removing some weight from my bar without talking to me prior. When I came up to the bar, he told me that I rounded my back on the last rep so the weight was coming off. THIS is why I have been working out with him over the past four years, driving from Loveland past 6 other CrossFit boxes to be a part of his program. I need a coach that will ensure I achieve my goals safely.Not only is the coaching top notch but they have built an amazing fun community that motivates each other both in and out of the gym. It’s a welcoming supportive community that comes second only to family!
A gym with individualized attention and focus on personal goals. Clean. Great community and support.
Having trained at many Colorado boxs, I can honestly say that FCAF has top-notch coaching, programming, and the community to go along with it. Being an avid backcountry bowhunter and Xterra Racer, with the help of FCAF, I feel that I am always prepared for my next hunt or race.
I used to think it was cool not to vaccinate my children and give unsolicited vegan dieting advice to anyone who was wearing a MAGA hat. But thanks to Justin and his crew at FCAF, I eat meat and have healthy, vaccinated children (2/5 left). But now, whenever I eat a carb I have feel the need to do 20 burpees. THANKS FCAF!!
FCAF is the best CrossFit gym in northern Colorado! Justin & Jess are extremely knowledgeable coaches; they’ll help you every step of the way whether you just stepped in the gym off the couch or have competed in 100’s of CrossFit competitions. They’ll add value to anyone’s exercise routine!
Courteous, professional, and well educated coaching. A fun place to work out!
Excellent coaching staff, equipment, and community!
Top notch coaching staff that goes out of their way to improve weaknesses and hone strengths. Amazing community and gym.
When looking for a CrossFit gym in Fort Collins, I tried them all. Are you looking for the best coaching? FCAF. Value? FCAF. Motivating community? FCAF.
Ive recently had shoulder surgery and just getting back to Crossfit. Justin is very attentive and has provided me with many exercises to help strengthen my stabilizer muscles. What I enjoy most about FCAF is Justins attention to his clients needs and his ability to make adjustments to WODs to best meet his clients needs. Justin is also good at creating a sense of community at Crossfit which makes the experience that much better. One of the best trainers of Crossfit Ive come in contact with.
Its actually gr8 m8. I was a skinny boi at first, but wen I went there, I got swole.
Great place and even better people.
Olyimpic lifting and handball. What more could you want?
