We are proud to be the first Official CrossFit Registered Affiliate in the High Peak, a place where people of all ages, fitness levels, goals and backgrounds come and exercise.
CrossFit is our main class only available as part of the full CrossFit Membership (Not CrossFit Lite) and is taught in our main gym area at the box. Our experienced coaches carefully programme each weeks class structure and content so that you can get the most out of your training. CrossFit members gain access to BoxMate where they can view programming, log their workouts, track progress, set goals and stay up to date with all the latest blogs and news at the box.
Our ladies only programme provides an opportunity for women to exercise together and have fun with their workouts in a friendly atmosphere. It’s ideal for women looking to get back in to using gyms after a long time away from them or if they’ve never used them before.
The sessions themselves run in our smaller unit (The Lite Box) and follow a monthly 5 day plan. All of which provide full body workouts through a mixture of cardio, resistance and bodyweight exercises. The main difference to CrossFit other than this being ladies only is that we don’t use barbells or attempt any of the more complexed lifts or gymnastics that the CrossFit programme includes.
On holiday in the peaks but you don’t want to miss out on your CrossFit fix? You can drop in to the box and sign up to a class whenever you like as long as you have CrossFit experience. We also offer a weekly pass so feel free to drop us a message if you’re unsure on the best way of dropping in.
And most of all... A place where you need not to be intimidated. You will be motivated, drop body fat, become stronger, enjoy exercise and make friends for life.

CrossFit® Buxton: Opinions
Fantastic experience: I love this place. I always wanted to have a go at Olympic Lifting and this is the place to do it! I love the community and I've made friends for life that I would have never had met if it wasn't for this place! Big Love
Fantastic experience: Fantastic atmosphere, great coaching for new starters and lovely community
Fantastic experience: Incredibly welcoming environment led by fantastic coaches. New to CrossFit, but loving it. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I really enjoy Buxton CrossFit Lite. The trainers (and other members) are knowledgeable and really supportive and there are a good range of workouts through the week. I thought I’d have difficulty making time for 3 sessions a week but now (2 months in) I’m actively thinking of ways I can squeeze extra sessions in . It’s so good to have found something (other than my running) which I feel I can commit to long term.
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Cross Fit Lite for several years (a year pre-pandemic, and two years post pandemic), and I have to say it is the best all round fitness programme I've found. I started pretty tentatively, as I was a bit concerned about getting injured (I'd had knee surgeries amongst other medical issues) and was in my 50s), but I listened to my body, adapted exercises with the help of the fantastic coaches, and progressively got stronger. I'm not competitive, and you don't have to be- you can work to your own pace even within the group workouts. I can honestly say that I'm fitter than I've been since having my kids over 20 years ago. I can do things I never thought I'd be able to a few years ago and importantly, can say yes to all kinds of fun things because I know my body can DO IT! I'd recommend Cross Fit Lite to anyone who wants to defy that sense of middle age slump and get strong and energised again!
Fantastic experience: Awesome place to train, great coaches great atmosphere and community.
Fantastic experience: Moved to buxton 2 years ago and joining CFB by far one of the best decisions....definitely worth the 6am starts
6.03 Haha thank you for the awesome the review coffee and thanks so much for training with us over the last couple of years
Fantastic experience: Amazing community and coaches, supporting everyone through their fitness journey. There is a really full timetable of classes that cater for all levels and skills throughout the week and weekend.
Thanks for being with us for so long Hugh it’s a pleasure coaching you
Fantastic experience: This is one of the most welcoming and inclusive places never mind gyms I’ve known. No egos, no looking down on anyone just a fantastic buzz. And sweat, lots and lots of sweat…..
Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit prior to Covid but that’s another story. I only wish I had found it sooner. Everyone is so welcoming & friendly. No cliqueness like some other gyms. Fun & varied workouts which can be scaled for different levels of fitness or any injuries. I competed in my first in- house competition last year which is something I never thought I would hear myself say. If you are considering giving it a go I’d say go for it! What’ve you got to lose??
Thank you for the wonderful review Sharon and we’re glad you found us keeping smashing it and thanks for being a wonderful member

Fantastic experience: A well equipped facility with fantastic coaches and a brilliant atmosphere. The only Crossfit affiliate in Buxton, with great links to others in the county.
Thank you so much for the awesome review rich and thanks for being with us so long its been great having you train with us all these years
Fantastic experience: Going to CrossFit Buxton has helped me achieve far more than I ever thought possible. I am fitter, stronger and more motivated than I’ve ever been doing other sports. The coaches care about each persons goals and are always there to guide you on the best way to achieve those goals whether that be nutrition, strength, endurance or a specific competition. The other members are like extended family supporting and encouraging you all the way. Being a little older I was unsure if lifting weights and doing crazy new things would be for me but all the workouts and movements are scalable to something you are comfortable with until you feel ready to take the next step. I 100% recommend, I’m fitter and stronger now than I’ve ever been!!!!
Hayley you’re a legend thank you so much for the wonderful review and keep smashing it it’s great to see you in throughout the week
Fantastic experience: I love the variety of CrossFit. I never get bored as there is always something new to learn. The coaches at CrossFit Buxton are really encouraging, as are the other members in the box. The atmosphere when someone achieves a lift they’ve been working towards or masters a new gymnastics skill is fantastic. Everything is scalable, so no matter what your skill level, the sessions are always accessible to all. I would recommend CrossFit Buxton to anyone.
Thank you for such a lovely review Gemma really appreciate it and thank you for being with us for so long it’s been a wonderful journey having you with us since day 1
Fantastic experience: Joining CrossFit Lite in Buxton has been one of the best decisions I ever made. The coaches are fun, supportive and professional. My fellow members are a joy to train with. Everyone is made to feel included and welcome. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to get fit in a lovely, supportive environment.
Emily, thank you so much for your kind words and thanks for getting started with us
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of CrossFit Buxton for over 14months. It’s been the best experience I’ve ever had going to a gym (Box), the workouts are always different and varied, there is something for all agilities and ages. The coach’s are fantastic and make you feel very welcome. The atmosphere with all the other members is always very friend and it’s a great way to get to know other people. I would highly recommend getting in touch and giving CrossFit Buxton a go
Fantastic experience: Started CrossFit lite coming up for two years ago now and recently joined CrossFit, both CrossFit lite and CrossFit are amazing places to train. Not only are the coaches extremely inclusive and supportive so are the members!! Great atmosphere always leave feeling mentally and physically better!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member now for over year, coming from another box down south. I absolutely love the friendly atmosphere and look forward to the classes, mainly with the 7am crew! For anyone wanting to get fit, learn cool skills and be able to request your favourite songs - CrossFit Buxton is for you!
Thanks for the lovely review Figgers you’re a legend
Fantastic experience: Dropped in at CrossFit Buxton for 4 days whilst away on a course. Lovely box, super welcoming owners, coaches and members. Great programming - really knowledgeable coaches. Thanks for having me. Recommend for drop ins (and obviously any one new to CrossFit - don’t hesitate!)
Fantastic experience: The one gym I’ve stuck to for years.. you don’t get bored as the sessions are constantly changing. The members are all lovely whether you are in crossfit lite or the main Crossfit box. The coaches are amazing and encourage and support each and everybody, whatever skill level!
Thank you so much for your lovely words Anna really appreciated and thanks for training with us for so long it’s wonderful having you as a member
Fantastic experience: Great place to train. Really good staff and very friendly.
Fantastic experience: Great place to train
Fantastic experience: Great community. Excellent coaches. Fitness for all levels. Highly recommended
Fantastic experience: Awesome Crossfit Community and Coaches!
Fantastic experience: Nice place, where you can improve your body condition and learn to lift weights. Adam, Shaun, Jordan and Angus are great coaches and all 4 will teach you how to lift safe and also how to get a proper sweat sesh on Sunday!
Fantastic experience: By far the best place to train that I ever used, the trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, and make you feel part of the team. The box has a friendly atmosphere, and anyone with any ability is welcome and catered for with different exercises to meet our limitations or physical level.
Fantastic experience: I have some fairly challenging mobility issues which often means I find group sport / fitness access difficult. However all 3 trainers at Buxton crossfit have really listened and make adaptations in the classes which mean I can get the most out of functional movements and join in at my own pace, and most importantly without feeling like a plonker. If you are not naturally athletic, don't let this be a barrier to checking it out here.
Fantastic experience: Everyone is welcoming with helpful, friendly advice on getting fitter, stronger and healthier.
Fantastic experience: Top class coaching
Fantastic experience: Really awesome box run by a couple of great guys, really friendly and approachable, the sessions here are always awesome.
Fantastic experience: Fanatic coaches, friendly people, quality equipment a good place to train
Fantastic experience: There comes a point in our lives when we have to be honest with ourselves about how we perform in all walks of life. Mine came back in july2017 when I looked at myself in the mirror & finally decided it was time to get my ass into action, I'd let myself go I was depressed & overweight, as I'm sure many other's have done I used all the excuses right because it's expected after all my injuries with my ankle, 2 knee a thigh & a shoulder. Then we can top that with carpal tunnel syndrome. After talking to a friend I decided to start crossfit @crossfit_buxton and at that point several thing's changed in my life. Firstly so far I've lost over 2 stone I'm getting fitter, stronger as you can see from the pics. but more importantly I'm so much happier within myself. Don't get me wrong but this has been a lot of hard work but what got me through this more than anything is all the truly amazing people from all walks of life at @crossfit_buxton it's like I've gained another family everyone is so friendly and the coaches are truly amazing people @lifeofawalker @shauny_doxey @jordant203 @angusdoigcf these guys make the place so friendly & welcoming you can't not fall in love with the atmosphere. I owe a lot to there dedication, advice, leadership & for being constant role models NOT only in my life but in many other's too. You really are a credit to yourselves. Thanks guys. If you like me and many other's have got to that stage in your life where you want a change no matter your age, ability/disability, or you just want to push yourself to become fitter than you already are , get yourselves up to @crossfit_buxton for a chat / foundation course and like me watch as your life changes for the better.

Fantastic experience: Love this place, fun and friendly place to train. If you are new to fitness or a really seasoned athlete you can achieve your goals here, with quality support from all the coaches, can't recommend highly enough
Fantastic experience: Love this place. Great atmosphere everytime I go in. Having very little crossfit experience when I started, the coaches made me feel welcome and structure the classes to cater for all abilities.
Fantastic experience: I love the atmosphere, the programming, the friendly competition and the fact that I am fitter, stronger and in better shape now at 53 than I was at 25 (and I was alright then ). Thanks Shaun and Adam, love working out at Crossfit Buxton.
Fantastic experience: Great coaching, great members and most of all a reasonable price for the fantastic programming and available sessions put on by the CFB team. Join if you're local or drop in if you're visiting Buxton
Fantastic experience: Absolutely love training up here with these guys. Coaches are amazing and make everyone feel welcome. Perfect little community to be a apart of
Fantastic experience: A very well run and enjoyable alternative to the traditional gym. The team are great at ensuring every day is different and challenging yet fun and rewarding. The equipment is great for those who just want to lose weight or those training to compete. Would highly recommend to all abilities!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member at pretty much every gym in buxton but Crossfit buxton is more than a gym or exercise class or circuit training it's a community where anyone and everyone is welcome from all abilities. It makes training addictive and fun as well as ensuring great results in functional fitness, strength and mobility. I've been a member for a year now and I'm stronger and fitter than I've ever been.
Fantastic experience: I started having pt sessions with Adam as I didn't have time to join the classes with being a fitness instructor myself. I also felt I wouldn't fit in. Well how wrong was I! I go three times a week and I love every minute of it. Adam and Sean bend backwards to make you feel welcome and put 100% into every class. If your a compete beginner or an athlete then I would recommend crossfit buxton it's awsome
Fantastic experience: Brilliant CrossFit box, with a great community. Coaches are all about form and good technique. Definitely recommend whether you are new to CrossFit or a seasoned athlete. Welcoming and great value for money too.
Fantastic experience: Excellent coaching , positive encouragement during the workouts, challenging workouts all makes Crossfit Buxton the best fitness experience you could wish for! Definitely recommend it!!
Fantastic experience: Such an amazing box, Adam and Shaun are great coaches, the programming is the best I've had at any box and the atmosphere is always welcoming! Love coming home to train here!
Fantastic experience: Great alternative to a traditional gym! All the classes are great fun with scaling options so suitable for all abilities! Lots of lovely people, & the coaches are ace!
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and love training with everyone that goes. Always feel welcome and the coaches are awesome. Crossfit buxton is the place to be
Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing place to train, get fit and make life long friends. I've been crossfitting with Crossfit Buxton for a little over three years, and I just fall in love more and more each time I train!
Fantastic experience: Before I joined I really wasn't sure that Crossfit was the place for me but fancied a new challenge and liked the idea of adding weights into the mix. I've been a member for just over a year now and am totally addicted. All the workouts are varied so I am never bored with training and if there are movements I can't yet do there are always plenty of scaling options to make them achievable. Adam and Shaun are committed and enthusiastic coaches and it shines through. The 6am crew feel like family members encouraging each other through workouts. If you are thinking about it but aren't quite sure I urge you to give it try - you'll never look back!
Fantastic experience: Having been a member since Adam and Shaun first started Crossfit Buxton in the corner of a gymnastics centre, it's been amazing to have seen them grow from where they were through to having their own box to then extending it twice. All this happening through sheer hard work and determination! It's great to see it now paying off. The coaching is second to none and it is clear to see that the guys have put a lot of time and effort in to making Crosssfit Buxton what it is today. Great box, great community, great coaches!
Fantastic experience: Joined 3 years ago when it first opened and have never looked back! Fab place to train and workout, with friendly, enthusiastic and motivating members and coaches. Gymnastics and weightlifting classes are good fun and enjoyable too! Would highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Been here for 3 months now, about 4 times per week, and I don't think I've done the same session twice, I have done many Training methods and joined many gyms, none of which I stick at,but the variation, style and work load of the XFIT way is just brilliant. Coaches are great guys and everyone is friendly and helpful without all the posing in the mirror stuff of traditional gyms. Great work guys
Fantastic experience: Been a member for 12 months now - Had mixed views on joining having already been involved in running, bootcamps etc but there was no turning back once the decision to sign up was made - this place just takes your fitness to another level. Whether it be to increase fitness levels, strength, weight loss, better your body shape, gain nutritional advice do not hesitate to pop in and see what CrossFit Buxton has to offer. Unlike most gyms where they can be quite daunting to walk in to, feel uncomfortable, be left alone after the induction - at CrossFit Buxton both the coaches and all members are extremely welcoming from the first session onwards and are on hand to help at all times. If your wanting results and willing to put the effort in, there is no doubt in my mind - this is the place to get those results.
Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a challenge or just a way of getting fit Crossfit is brilliant I can't rate Adam and Shaun highly enough as coaches
