Great facility with wonderful staff focused on helping you meet your health/wellness/fitness goals while keeping you accountable and pushing you to be your best. AND they do Ninja warrior/ obstacle course training, which can be hard to find!! Plenty of options to make it affordable for the entire family, too

Otherworld Fitness on Spires Way in Frederick is awesome. You don’t have to worry about not “fitting” in because they treat everyone the same even though we were all on different levels. The coaches are the best and work with you to address any individual issues you may have doing a certain exercise by offering alternate movements to attain the same goal - all the while motivating and supporting you to do the very best you can do. I feel so much better about myself than I did a year ago. Thank you!

I started going a few weeks ago with my wife. I was on the fence at first but glad I gave it a try. The instructors are very motivating. I recommend the boot camp to all levels of fitness as you go at your own pace. The owner is very personably, he’s always there to greet and talk to you.

Otherworld Fitness on Spires Way off of Gashouse pike is fabulous. The people and the workouts are superb. I go there three times a week for boot camp. Getting fit at Otherworld Fitness feels like hitting all the green lights on the road.

Ive now been going to Otherworld for almost a year now - Tim and his staff are fun!, professional, and wonderfully courteous. Never pushy, unless you want them to help with your workout motivation. Both sides of the gym are clean and well maintained. Great environment!!!

I just Started at Otherworld a few weeks ago. This place is AMAZING. There’s such a focus on community, and I like being part of this family.The courses are challenging and engaging. The instructors are exceptionally motivating and knowledgeable. The facility itself is a beautiful mix of classic iron (dumbbells, barbells, rubber plates) and obstacle course equipment (warped walls, salmon ladder, rope courses, etc). I couldn’t have dreamed up a better place to workout.Oh and the facility is the cleanest I’ve ever seen a gym.

Otherworld Fitness isn’t just another place to workout, we are a family! I never felt out of place here. When I struggle they give me all the support I can possibly get, and then some. So thankful to be a part of Otherworld Fitness!

Are you kidding me! BEST PLACE EVER to get ready for any OCR in the world. After going to a class on how to tackle the multi-rig obstacle, I rang the bell on that obstacle at my next race and every race after that! The skills and tricks taught by the pros there made all the difference. You have highly trained trainers that have done hundreds of races combined there teaching. The staff is experienced from Ultra races to Marathons to world OCR events. Your time will be well invested. It’s a must go to place if your doing OCRs And more. Thank you TIM and HELÉN for supporting myself and team. See you soon again. DMVSpartans Miguel

My family and I love this gym! The equipment and space is excellent, and the coaches are wonderful! We drive 40 minutes to practice and work out at the Otherworld. The coaches are super encouraging (especially when I’m feeling like giving up) and are great teachers, giving just the advice needed to excel. The strength building classes are really helpful too. Coach Tim has built a truly great gym!It’s absolutely exhilarating to conquer an obstacle that looked and felt impossible the previous week!! When I first came to the gym all I could do on the rings or monkey bars was hang, but now I can make it through both of those obstacles! And just as important is getting those little tips that make hard obstacles much easier! My husband came home from the gym recently and couldn’t stop talking about the tips that coach Tristan gave him for getting better control on the rings!

I love this place! It has everything you need to get a great workout plus some really unique, fun Rigs, ropes and walls. Top of line obstacle training facility, the best I’ve seen in fact! It does have a “Normal” gym as well, with treadmills/rowers/weight lifting/etc). I would highly suggest this gym, it has something for everyone and the staff will welcome any newcomer like family.

I absolutely LOVE this gym. Workouts are always well-rounded and can be modified to meet any skill level, equipment is top-notch AND the obstacle course stations ensure I never have a boring gym experience. Trainers are highly experienced and knowledgeable. Its a great place to get started or to continue your training.

Fantastic equipment and rigs and even better coaches. Feels like a second family. My wife and I drive all the way from Baltimore because there is nothing like this place! If youre training for a race, getting in shape or just looking for a fun and challenging time this is your gym!

Otherworld OCR is absolutely incredible! You can train for obstacle course racing, and sooo many other things. The coaches are knowledgeable, passionate, and dedicated to helping you reach WHATEVER fitness goals you may have. The people that train there are the most supportive and fun that I have ever found in a gym. But, Otherworld OCR is SO much more than just a gym!

Im pleased I signed up with Otherworld OCR. Ive found their unique obstacle component of fitness training to instill a goal-oriented determination to my workouts. With the skills training that complements their fitness program, Ive already successfully jumped, climbed, and traversed obstacles I feared. I used to make time for the gym, now I look forward to it. Tim and Helene have created something special here.

Otherworld has everything you need to prepare for obstacle course racing. The workouts are some of the best for development of overall fitness even if racing is not your goal. The instructors have a LOT of experience and know how to get you to your goals!

I cant say enough GREAT things about Otherworld OCR! What an amazing playground and workout facility for ALL AGES. The only negative -- I live an hour away -- but honestly its worth the drive. I attend the open house on Sunday morning to work on my obstacle course training technique(s) and have learned so much from Tim over the past few weeks. Im scaling 7 walls, travesing the tryo rope and pushing and pulling a 270# sled while getting in a full body workout with all the other equipment at Otherworld. No matter where you live -- you need to visit and join Otherworld OCR. You have nothing without a purpose, plan, and process.....right Tim? :)

I really, really love this gym. I love that it’s local, feels so personal and is involved in the community (NOT another giant gym chain). Before joining I had zero crossfit or obstacle course race experience but the staff have been so encouraging and supportive and I’ve learned so much (and I’ve lost weight and gained lots of muscle) and I’ve had soooo much fun.

Best OCR gym in the USA. They have a double wide Platinum Rig, a ton of obstacles, treadmills, an indoor hill and a weight room. I stop by every time I’m in the area.
