Being from a rural area in CO, I appreciate the “small town” family feel at Cannon. Everyone has been extremely welcoming during my 1 month visit! I couldn’t have felt more at home. Coaches are well informed and do exceptional at relaying their knowledge to their members. I respect the focus on proper mechanics and mastering strict movements. I feel like they really have something special here. When I’m back in Houston, I’ll most definitely be coming back to Cannon!
Former, highly skeptical 20 year couch-potato here who loathed gyms. I’ve attended group classes for well over a year and recently signed up for personal training at 45. What a difference it makes (all the coaches are excellent so it was a hard choice to pick a trainer, having worked with each of them in group classes). I chose Josh S.; a master at identifying problems with flexibility and proper form. In one month, I’ve experienced great progress in correcting an issue I’ve suffered with my whole life and thought incurable, especially at my age.
I started with Cannon Fitness 3 months ago and couldnt be any happier with my progress. Im definitely feeling stronger every time I leave. The coaches truly care about the health and fitness of their clients and make you feel like family. I have met some awesome people who push me to go harder each and every class. I cant wait to see what the future holds as I keep showing up and showing out.
I attended the 5am class with a friend of mine who invited me to go and I had a great time! Jonathan was super friendly, encouraging, and a great coach! I had never weight lifted before so he took the time to show me how to do all of the exercises correctly. But most importantly he pushed me past what I thought I could do. Cannon fitness seems like a great place to build a community with, I would definitely be a regular if I lived in town!
I have worked out at Cannon Fitness & Performance for 9-years. The Coaches, the community and atmosphere make Cannon an exceptional gym for all levels of fitness. As Ive aged the Cannon Coaches have educated me to appropriately scale workout routines to help maintain maximum mobility, range of motion, strength and endurance. I can especially feel the results when enjoying my favorite recreational activities. Jeff, Matt and all the Cannon Coaches are exceptionally good people and at the end of the day that is what it is all about....being with good people, who make you better.
I’ve been working with Matthew Clemons for a little over 2 years now and all I can say is great things about his coaching. I first started my journey with him in Florida, training weekly, before he moved to Texas. He then brought his training to an online platform which helped me stay on track immensely. He’s always attentive to your needs, quick responses with any questions you may have, and really focuses on helping you become a better you! I would really recommend coach Matt for anyone looking to get started in there fitness lifestyle!
I’ve been going to this gym for almost 2 years now. I love the community culture, the consistency and the coaches. I’ve made some really good friends who challenge me daily.
My favorite place to be! Seriously..the coaches are amazing and they’re not just our coaches I consider them family and friends. I used to go to you regular gym and never saw improvement until I came here and discovered this amazing group. It’s my happy hour without the alcohol 😬😊. Come join us and have some fun while getting fit.
Incredible find! I never tried Cross Fit before finding this spot, and I have to say, the atmosphere was extremely welcoming to first timers. That coupled with an amazing support system by the coaches, made this place a keeper for me. If Im in Houston, I wouldnt go anywhere else now. They definitely helped me find my inner Beast again. Try it and find out for yourself, I guarantee you wont be disappointed. To my Cannon Fam, thank you, much love!
I have been to a few other crossfit gyms, but this one is the best. The trainers listen to my body and are knowledgeable about fitness so know when to push or lighten the load. I have lost 15 pounds and feel fit and trim. I go twice a week now. Thanks!
Visit Houston often for work and have dropped in here several times. Liked it so much purchased a punch card. Very knowledgeable coaches and very friendly members. Great place.
Would highly recommend online coaching, especially with Matt! I’ve been working with Matt for online training over the past few months and I couldn’t be happier! He’s given me the structure, workouts, and accountability I’ve desperately needed while I haven’t had access to a gym. When COVID-19 started, I struggled to motivate myself to do workouts at home without having the group HIIT workouts at my gym I loved. Coach Matt provides me with daily support and motivation to never miss a workout. The app is really user friendly, easy to follow with video instructions, and can be easily updated by the coach. I look forward to continue working with Matt from across the country once gyms open back up and switch up my routine from the past 3 years. Thanks for everything!
I have been back and forth between commercial gyms and CrossFit gyms for about 5 years. I have recently moved to Houston and I have not felt a warm welcome like this one ever. Professional and motivating staff! It is a great place and I love it.
Great gym, great coaches. i normally get a bit stressed and anxious trying out a new gym, but the culture there is very welcoming and positive. really recommend.
Cannon has been a part of my life for almost 7 years now. I can genuinely say that every time I finish a 12pm workout there, I leave feeling exponentially better. The coaches, and my Noon/12pm contemporaries really make this a special place.-Valentino
Really great gym and awesome community.Cannon does a lot of things right. Ive been to a number of greater Houston area boxes, and typically each one lacks something in an effort to maximize another. This could be lack of great coaching, lack of community, lack of competition, or lack of encouragement.I am yet to see Cannon lack any of the above. There maybe more competitive boxes out there, but few have all the parts working together for the whole package. Cannon has very supportive staff, and a very friendly member community . There was no phase of awkwardness between me and the others. They came right out of the gate introducing themselves, and helped me get acquainted with the box.On top of all that, they have a great facility with great equipment, and additional programs for members to participate in! Cant say enough about this place. Check it out!
After moving to Houston from NYC, I took my time to visit over 10 boxes in the area before choosing Cannon. The professionalism of the coaching, mixed with the team atmosphere is what sold me. Being a former college athlete, I am really picky about having supportive coaches who know how to push you, but also know the line of correct form and professionalism. Cannon has amazing coaches who really care about their athletes!
I am from Seattle and was in Houston for business. After taking one look at the hotel fitness center - a treadmill in a closet in the basement - I had to find a training alternative. I found Cannon CrossFit after a quick web search and gave them a call. Jeff was happy to have me drop in for a session. They have a great facility in the Galleria area of Houston. I was welcomed into a 7am class. Jeff worked with me as though I was a regular. The class was intense - exactly what I was looking for! I cant wait for my next trip to Houston to visit these guys again!
This place is the best gym,hands down!The community,the workouts,everything!!The people are what make it the best though,everyone welcomes you either open arms!
2020 update:I’m 52 and I had to take about a year off from xfit. I needed to rehab and train before I started again. I began personal training with Jeff. He is awesome. He pushes me but listens very closely. I feel encouraged, challenged, and safe.Facility is small and personal. They manage social distancing well. Feel much safer here than I do at a big box gym.2018-19:New to Crossfit and found these guys to be great. Jeff and Sergio really spent the time to help me get started. Nice facility friendly and responsive staff .Worth the money
I have been coming here for 3 years and have made progress and relationships that will continue to grow. I cant imagine experiencing my fitness life any where else.
No doubt the best CrossFit coaches in Houston. Small and supportive community, coaches that are committed to the most personalized care for YOUR needs and level of fitness, and acceptance of you as you are while encouraging you to be your healthiest self.I had been actually afraid to try CrossFit for years (Im not the most athletic type), and Cannon completely dissolved my fears. They give newcomers a personalized introductory course before you have to go to the main gym, so by the time you get in there you know what you are doing. CrossFit gave me newfound confidence in my own strength.
Just moved to Houston and this has become my favorite part of the city. Jeff and the entire staff are excellent. I am just a beginner but all levels get a great workout, every time. Highly recommend.
Due to travel I drop into a lot of boxes, most are good, but few really great. The coaches at Crossfit Cannon are skilled and very helpful, the people really friendly. The facility is clean, well equipped and orderly with plenty of space. Thanks Jeff and crew!
Very helpful and knowledgeable coaches. Great community!
Community matters and Cannon builds up friendships and friendly competition. The coaches will correct your movements, which is one of my main deciding factors when joining this gym.
Cannon Crossfit is by far the best crossfit gym Ive been to. The coaches are amazing. They each have their own unique background that gives a full range of knowledge for their athletes. The community at cannon is tight. The people at the gym are inclusive and support one another. The coaches will work with you if you have an injury or hard time with a movement and help you come up with a modification or work with you until you feel more comfortable with the movement. They offer yoga to help with recovering from the weekly workouts, as well as fun outings as a gym once a month or so.I was a rower in college and have struggled to find the sense of community I felt with my team, but I have found it at cannon. Its an excellent place to exercise, grow as an athlete, and meet amazing people. Do yourself a favor and drop in... You wont regret it.
Cannon is so much more than a crossfit gym. From the moment I arrive until I finish the WOD, there is an overwhelming sense of comradery and not only personal achievement but throughout the entire class as well. We learn something new every day in our pre workout talks. I’ve never been to another gym who takes so much pride and precaution with their members. You are more than a customer with Cannon, you are part of their community. 5 stars doesn’t begin to give it justice.
Great community
