Great Gym! Challenging workouts meant to push you into a metabolic state to condition and strengthening you. If you think this gym is only for the young your wrong, I was 36 and started in September 2020 out of shape and overweight but with consistency and hard work I have improved my overall health and well being. It’s the progress and not the perfection that I was after. Just keep showing up and you’ll see fantastic results. The coaching staff is top notch and it’s a great community! KILOTRAINED has changed my life and excited for the future.

Great work out size. Amazing trainers! I am a big guy and they make adjustments to fit for what I am capable of doing cuz of my weight. I will one day be able to do what the class does tell that day I am proud to go to this work out spot.

This was a very welcoming gym for me when I moved to Iowa city. Everyone is really nice and it’s a fun place to train no matter what your goals are.

They do a great job of taking care of their equipment. Their bars spin as well as any gym I’ve ever been to.

I have nothing but good things to say about this gym and the community that make it up. I first joined in March when the rec shut down, and Austin was very welcoming to me, offering great student discounts and reasonable prices. About two days after I joined, all gyms across the state were forced to shut down. When that happened, Austin was incredibly generous and loaned out much of his gyms equipment to gym members, myself included (despite the fact that I had been a member for only a few days at this point, and nobody had any idea when gyms would reopen). At this point I was already sold on the place, as anyone who cares that much about their community is someone I will gladly give my business to, but then when things reopened and I actually got to train here I loved it even more.First, the facilities are exceptional. Loads of floor space for barbel training, top notch machinery, and even pull-up bars for tall people. Its all more than adequate for whatever workouts youre doing. Next, and perhaps most importantly, all the people here were very nice. It was pretty common for people to show up early to workouts to chat with their friends or hang out for awhile afterwards visiting with each other. The people here genuinely care about one another. Last, I really liked that it opened at 5 during the week, as this gave me plenty of time to get a workout in before work every day. They also have showers here which are just as nice as the showers you would expect to find in someones home, not your standard locker room style shower.All around this is by far my favorite gym Ive ever trained in, keep up the great work!

Best CrossFit box in Iowa City!! The coaches know what they are talking about and place a huge emphasis on form and safety. This is the box that focuses on efficiency and endurance. Great atmosphere! Wonderful community

If youre thinking about joining... this is your sign. Do it!I joined a little over 5 months ago and had very little experience with a barbell. I came in wanting to get into the best shape of my life and thinking CrossFit was the hardest thing I could do. Its definitely challenging, but its not impossible! The foundations program really helped me ease into CrossFit without being intimidated (I had no idea CrossFit had its own vocabulary!).I think what makes CrossFit Kilo so great is the atmosphere. The coaches are amazing at their jobs, always positive, and really care about you as an athlete and as a person. Same with the other athletes! Every workout always ends with high fives and fist bumps, even if you may have never been in a class with them before.Also, the sweat & stretch class is one of my favorite things ever! Tauni is amazing and I always look forward to her mobility exercises every week

Ive been at Kilo for a couple months and feel like I am in the best shape of my life. You come in and get right to work, there is no wasted time. The workouts are challenging but rewarding. Austin does a great job of pushing you to be the best you can be. No matter what level of fitness you are at I would recommend coming in and checking out the gym.

Great gym with amazing staff! I was new to CrossFit and the coaches here take the time to train you and truly care about your progress. The facility is HUGE and the equipment is top notch. My strength and form have improved significantly. I highly recommend this place if you are looking to get fit and have fun doing it!

This Crossfit Gym ROCKS! I joined in late December 2016 and feel great from a physic standpoint. All instructors are very hospitable and focus on doing the right moves at your current level. My wife enjoys the workout as much as I do which is great given we are both on different levels.Another great thing about this gym is the community, there are so many amazing people around. I feel blessed to have been recommended to it by my friend Dave.Cant wait to see how strong Ill get by December 2017.

My experience with CrossFit has been 3 years in a box and the last 2 years in my garage. I didnt realize I was missing more out of my workout until I drove by CrossFit Kilo 2.The gym is clean, the equipment is in great shape and Austin, along with his coaches, are very knowledgeable. I feel I get one-on-one coaching even in a bigger class. Its also a very welcoming atmosphere. Hands down this is a great place to embrace the suck.

Great location makes it easy to work the gym into your daily routine--especially given the variety of class times offered. I was at another gym in town for over six months and didnt have much to show for it performance-wise. Ive been at CrossFit Kilo II for only a month and have already made great improvements. Staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and focused on you. Welcoming culture with health competition to keep things fun.

Ive been to numerous boxes across the US (MN, IA, KS, FL) and this is hands down the best one Ive seen. The programming is outstanding and the community is quite rare. Placed in a college town, being a short bike ride/walk from the University of Iowas campus and at a convenient location for adults, theres a nice blend of college students and adults at class times.

I highly recommend and enjoy CrossFit Kilo 2. Its located just a few blocks from campus/downtown so the location is perfect for both students and professionals. The equipment, guidance, and welcoming atmosphere make it the best CrossFit gym I have belonged to. In addition to the scheduled classes, there is an open gym policy so you can workout in between class times if need be.

Just dropped in for a class. Im from out of town and drop in all over the country. This is, hands down, one of the best experiences Ive had. Every person at the gym was friendly and welcoming. The coaching was encouraging and stern as it ought to be and Ill definitely be dropping in when Im in town. If you live locally you are lucky to have a gym like this to go to. Dont wait, join up and #keepshowingup

Austin and all of the coaches are AWESOME! They will keep you motivated and provide an extremely friendly atmosphere! Havent had a day yet where I havent looked forward to a work out!

Outstanding gym! Come on down to the gym and try it out. The atmosphere is welcoming and inviting. You wont regret it.Austin and the rest of the staff are excellent! No matter what your fitness goals are, CrossFit Kilo II will help you get there: Weight loss? Yep. Olympic lifting? You got it. CrossFit? Of course!Seriously - come try it; youve got nothing to loose.

Austin is a great coach. Definitely is easy to work with and flexible with scheduling. Moreover, he is also willing to thoroughly explain and assist with lifting movements to those he teaches.

Great place to do crossfit in Iowa city that is close to campus. Plenty of class options and experienced instructors that will teach you the technique and help you build up your strength. Equipment and area is perfect. Highly suggest!!

This is a great new Crossfit gym for Iowa City. The facility is great and Austin is an excellent instructor. He has a great knowledge of what it takes to be successful in the gym and how to help individuals of all abilities. The classes are great and offered at convenient times. This is my new favorite facility to workout in the area.

Great new facility that is close to campus and has an outstanding lineup of instructors. Class times are varied to fit everyones schedule and the equipment is all new. Check it out....you wont be disappointed!

Dropped in to CrossFit Kilo ll while in town for work, I was very impressed with how they conduct class. Everyone warmed up together and went through all the movements together before performing the WOD. Many scaling options for all movements. I will definitely be back when Im in town again.

Ive been to my fair share of gyms across the country and this gym, hands down, one of the best ever. Very experienced coaching. Safety always first. And kickass environment.

I started crossfit here 2 weeks ago and can already tell the tremendous difference it has made in my physical strength and endurance. The workouts are challenging and great for both the mind and body. I would strongly recommend coming in and checking it out.

A great Crossfit gym! The community and atmosphere at Crossfit Kilo is extremely welcoming! The coaching staff meets you at whatever level you are at and works with you each and every day to make you a better athlete! The constant and knowledgeable feedback I get at each workout on how I can make improvements in all areas of my fitness keeps me coming back for more! Highly recommend this gym!

Awesome place to train with a competitive environment and superb coaching. Classes are well run, organized, and fun, and the open gym policy also makes the gym the best CrossFit gym in Iowa City. Great equipment, great community, and I look forward to training and working out here for the future.

Super fun group of people and great instruction. Austin, the owner and head trainer, has been extremely accommodating schedule-wise and really works hard to keep the gym available, clean, and welcoming.Update:Ive been Kilo trained for about a year now, and I still love this gym. The programing works. For example: I had been working out for about a year somewhere else when I first joined Kilo II. At that time I had a really tough time completing the CrossFit benchmark workout Grace even after scaling it. Now, after 1 year at Kilo II with Armands programming and all the great coaching from, Austin, Luke, Streat, etc., I just completed Grace at the Rx weight in ~4 minutes! But thats not all, after that we did 30x135lb lunges and 30 wallballs! (MARCH 27, 2018) Sure it sucked, but a year ago I would have baulked at the idea. The coaches and community are still great, of course.

Great trainers with friendly environment! Good for all levels of fitness from beginners looking to get into shape to those looking to push themselves to their peak physical fitness.

This is my first CrossFit experience and box. Still, the coaches genuinely care to see the members grow and develop themselves into better athletes. It also isnt highway robbery on your wallet like other boxes in town.

Been working out at CK2 for a little under a year and its far and away the best Crossfit/fitness experience Ive had. Trainers are kind and smart and always aware of your level. Athletes range from total newcomers to internationally competitive Crossfit games athletes. Big focus on getting your form right before you move up in weight so dont see a lot of injuries -- people are always asking that about Crossfit so I say it up front. Also an awesome place for women to work out. There are a few great women trainers and you will never feel belittled as I think some women feel in weight rooms in other contexts. Great student deal as well. Thanks guys!

Going into Kilo 2 is the best part of my day, every day! Great people, great location, great environment. Best gym in Iowa City!

Kilo 2 offeres a professional, competent and fun training experience. Austin (owner/coach) is always working to keep the gym up to his high standards of cleanliness and maintenance. Programming provides challenges for all levels, breaking it down for all by providing scalable options. Class times are some of the best around, with open gym for those who want in between scheduled class. Classes last one hour, and coaches are always cognizant of others time and schedules. If you are unfamiliar with Crossfit, the community is welcoming and open, if you are experienced you will find great coaching and new challenges at Kilo 2.

Best gym I have ever been to. Excellent for all skill levels

Crossfit Kilo II has helped take my training to a new level with great coaching, programming, and an environment where everyone is supporting each other through the workouts. The training has made me feel better in my everyday life.

CrossFit Kilo II is the best CrossFit in the Iowa City area. The membership rates are competitive and well worth the value, considering the level of coaching you get from CrossFit Games athlete, Austin Nedelcoff. Sign up, drop in, do whatever you can to try it out.

Crossfit Kilo 2 brings this respected CF brand to Iowa City. I was unsatisfied with another box Id drop into when working in the area, so I was happy to discover Kilo II. Austin is a knowledgeable coach with the skills and experience to help his clients meet their fitness goals. He has also done an excellent job fostering a friendly and welcoming community at his gym.

If you never work out - read this review. Almost 10 months ago, my sister dragged me to our first crossfit class. Having done “boot camp” like classes before, I was dreading it. In past experience I’ve been thrown into a fast paced class doing things far beyond my skill level and waking up the next day unable to move. I have never been an athletic person. Ever. Crossfit Kilo2 was unlike anything I’ve done before. You start out with a week of learning the basics. When you’re ready to start classes, everything is highly modified to your skill level. The coaches are friendly and knowledgeable and a great resource for kick starting an overall healthier lifestyle both fitness and nutrition wise. For the first time in my life, I am regularly working out. I even miss it when I have to skip a few classes, which is absurd to me. Me, of all people, being upset over missing a workout?! If you never workout and you’re looking to start, try crossfit. I promise it’s way less intimidating than it seems.

Great gym that actually pushes you. Well worth the money and membership

Crossfit Kilo 2 is a great place where you can begin or continue your crossfit journey. The coaching staff as well as the crossfit community at Kilo 2 are very friendly, helpful, and encouraging. I highly recommend this gym!

Ill admit that I was a crossfit hater when I saw that video of Chris Spealler doing 100 butterfly pull-ups years ago. Last year, I joined this gym with the recommendation of my co-workers and it completely changed my mind on crossfit. If youre in the same boat, I suggest you give it a chance. Its the same idea as swimming freestyle vs butterfly. Same goal, but different movements.If youre worried about not having any experience, I had zero experience doing Olympic lifts when I started. I was also hesitant to do such dynamic movements because Ive had back pain for years. The coaches (Austin, Luke (best music), Streat, Chase, Mac, Dylan, Meredith, and Rachel) are extremely knowledge and high-level athletes; with their instruction, Ive learned to do the movements without any injuries.Its been about 10 months in and I am the fittest Ive ever been. The community is amazing and help push you to reach your goals. In terms of other crossfit gyms around, Ive traveled around and Kilos membership is the cheapest Ive ever seen for crossfit gym and its basically always open. It is truly an unbeatable value for the level of coaching, community and equipment.

If a 6th star was an option this place would have it! Great facility, awesome coaching, and friendly atmosphere!

Best crossfit gym around town. clean, joyful, insightful.

Awesome gym with great people! So glad I joined.

Its the best. Austin is an excellent coach.

This gym is awesome. I love it.

Great coaches, people, and equipment. Nothing but positive experiences!

Great coaches and staff!

Great atmosphere, great community
