Central Staffs CrossFit^®

Fantastic experience: Can't say much about the business side of things, but I do attend a few times a year when coaching my athletes at competitions they host. The staff are really friendly, competitions are well ran and the environment is well kept and clean. Couldn't ask for more.

Fantastic experience: Great place to go for a weightlifting comp.

Fantastic experience: Amazing people! Amazing programming! Highly highly recommended

Fantastic experience: Youngster goes here for kids class. Good environment and fairly priced. Good atmosphere and Paige is good with the kids. Great to see actual exercises and form being taught at a young age compared to a lot of other kids exercise classes which often end up just being games and no real focused work.

Fantastic experience: CSC staffs is a great place to train, all coaches are so welcoming, and help you to get better. I really like that they also do CrossFit kids, and my little brother really enjoys it. As there are not many places that cater for this, and he loves it for many reasons. Also, first CrossFit open and great place to do this.

Fantastic experience: I have been very lucky to of received tasters to Eccleshall CrossFit and Central Staffs CrossFit. Both boxes are well equipped and the staff our awsem. Taking their time with me through exercise movement help and helping me feel at ease in a new environment. The box (both boxes are ideal for functional training) and the people are very welcoming. My boy (age 9) started too on Tuesday. He hasn’t stopped talking about George (his coach) and Tim lol. They made him feel so welcome. He is excited about his next session. So glad I have started this fitness journey with CSC.

Fantastic experience: Nice staff. Great trainers and nice socialisation through out the place

Fantastic experience: If you’re thinking of joining Central Staffs CrossFit…DO IT. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made and I only wish I had joined sooner. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and you are never made to feel like you can’t do something. There is a scale for every exercise…crossfit really is for everyone. I can’t say enough kind words about all the coaches at CSC. They are supportive, friendly and know when to push you. I would never have achieved some of the things I have done without the coaches recognising my ability and believing in me. I know I’ll be a member here for as long as I am able to (hopefully forever!!) and encourage anyone that’s wondering what CrossFit is about, to take the plunge and try it; it will change your life!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! I started a couple of years ago and haven’t looked back. The coaching is excellent and the bespoke approach means every one within a class makes progress. The community focus is great and there is always a warm welcome and an encouraging atmosphere. Thanks CSC!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going for two years and haven’t got bored yet! The coaches are very knowledgeable, they offer accessible options to tailor or scale the workouts accordingly. CrossFit really can be for anyone with any body limitations (I started in my mid forties!). The key is having the expertise in the room, having fun and the coaches understanding you. That builds trust and results. CSC has it all and I can highly recommend this box

Fantastic experience: Great friendly environment to train in with knowledgeable helpful coaches

Fantastic experience: When I moved to Stafford earlier this year, I decided that I wanted to find a gym that would help me progress my fitness and give me the motivation to follow that through with good nutrition. I have always found regular gyms intimidating and struggled to know what I should be doing when I get there. Crossfit looked like a good way to get a varied workout and something I could fit in easily around work as there are so many classes to choose from. I was initially a bit apprehensive about joining a Crossfit gym as I imagined everyone else would be super fit and that I'd never keep up. I made use of the 3 free taster sessions that the gym offers to see if I would like it. Joining Central Staffs Crossfit has been brilliant. The coaches are welcoming and supportive and can adapt the various sessions according to your ability. There is always someone doing a different variation of an exercise so I never feel like I'm the odd one out. They also know when to push you if they can see you are capable of more, even if you don't realise it yourself! The class sizes are small so you have the opportunity for plenty of guidance and everyone I've encountered in my sessions has been lovely. I actually look forward to going now and even the sore muscles afterwards are a good reminder of how hard I have worked :) For me, going to the sessions is really part of getting a healthier lifestyle but they really help keep me on track with my food as well by helping me to plan out meals in advance and making sure I have enough energy for my sessions. My recent blood results show that I am now in a "pre-diabetic" range, very close to being within normal range, meaning I could come off medication in the future. This is something that I didn't think would be possible in such a short timeframe and I'm thrilled. I would encourage anyone who is thinking about joining a gym to try Crossfit, it could be the best thing you ever do!

Fantastic experience: Best thing we've ever done. Just wish we'd have joined sooner. Atmosphere is amazing and the coaches, staff and members are even better. I would 100% recommend this gym and their new venture in Eccleshall to anyone!! J

Fantastic experience: Tim and his team are exceptionally knowledgeable. I had never tried CrossFit and wasn't sure what to expect, muscle bound and bronzed bodies?? But what I discovered was a community of amazing people who encouraged me and helped me not only achieve my fitness goals, but surpass them! This isn't just another gym, it's a tribe, a family of like-minded soles ranging from every type of background and fitness level. I'm glad I had the courage to walk through the hanger doors, my life has changed for the better as a result. Thanks team!!

Fantastic experience: I have thoroughly enjoyed the last three months at Cross Fit. Group sports and being completely out of my comfort zone has been challenging in more ways than one. Nevertheless, the continuous support and kindness from coaches and other members alike has been so welcoming and motivating. The coaches are highly skilled and have a wealth of knowledge and support, members can call upon throughout each session. The equipment is first class and everything is always so clean and tidy! When researching about Cross Fit, I read frequently how its a ‘family’ and unlike a traditional gym and now I have done three months, I can see why people say these comments. I am really looking forward to seeing what this holds for both myself personally but also what challenges the coaches will bring us for this year.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to CrossFit for 3 months now and my only regret is that I didn’t join sooner. The team of coaches are very supportive and encouraging and the CrossFit community as a whole are welcoming, friendly and helpful. Not only is it challenging but it’s rewarding to see progression and learning something new whilst improving my fitness.

Fantastic experience: Great set up. Made us work

Fantastic experience: Great friendly gym, welcoming and supportive of newbies and staff able to adapt to suit needs of each gym member.

Fantastic experience: People were friendly ,helpful and music set the tone for a great workout x

Fantastic experience: The 5 x Taster sessions offer worked perfectly for me. The concept, philosophy and social environment of CCC is very different from my previous experiences of standard gyms and those 5 sessions allowed me to discover and adapt to those differences, assisted by the instructors and the friendly CCC gym members who made me feel welcome during my trial sessions

Fantastic experience: I initially started off with the 5 tasters sessions and I was hooked from the get-go. From the start all of the staff were polite, friendly and encouraging. They’re all professional and want to help you to achieve your own goals. If I’m not confident on a move, all members of staff are more than happy to break the movement down and help me. The atmosphere there is great as the members are all friendly and encouraging too. I live close to another CrossFit gym, but I travel out my way to come to this one as I have the best experiences here.

Fantastic experience: I found CSC very welcoming, I never once found myself being watched or under pressure, all the staff are very knowledgeable and take time to ensure your doing thibgs correctly, I will be returning once I sort some buts n bobs out... highly recommend this to anyone... thank you and see you all soon. Stu.p

Fantastic experience: From the workouts, to the trainers, atmosphere, advice and help, these guys easily get five stars. I never thought I would be someone who would even try Crossfit, let alone really enjoy it! These guys are ace at what they do and the support they give you, would easily recommend to anyone!

Fantastic experience: I’m now in my 4th year of membership at Central Staffs CrossFit. It has changed my life for the better. A big thank you to the CrossFit team - to the coaches who are brilliant and to the members who are a pleasure to train with.

Fantastic experience: Loving the classes, so much that I am now doing 3 wods a week and signed up to the silver membership :-) I can really feel the benefits of doing the classes, feel so much fitter, I don't struggle breathing as much when going out running, my endurance and strength is improving and I can tell in the classes, especially on the Thursday wods ;-) . Would never go back to the basic gyms, no point. My husband Rob has now cancelled his gym membership as he will be starting the course next week, saw how much I was loving it and wanted to join in :-). The coaches are amazing too as I've said before, they really know their stuff and patient with you. Met some fab friends too whilst in the course and stayed in touch with them, it's great to meet them at the classes and have a good catch up.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member at Central Staffs Crossfit for 2.5 years and am so glad I found it when I did! The coaches and community as a whole are so friendly and supportive, which was always a big stumbling block for me before. I have been to various gyms and classes in the past and felt overlooked because I didn't fit that "gym bunny" model. At CSC, it doesn't matter what your ability is, there is something for everyone here and all workouts can be scaled but, as your fitness and confidence grows you will find you want to do more! There is no elitism here, just like-minded people getting fitter and having fun. Give it a go, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend this gym to anybody who is looking to challenge themselves and change their outlook on life. This was my second CrossFit box that I have been a member of, and you get the feeling of community as soon as you walk through the door. NO MATTER what your goals are you will find great support not only from all the coaches, but other members, remember nobody walks in and can do a strict pull up the first time, but when you achieve it you can be sure everybody will be celebrating your success! The programming is excellent, and as CrossFit is known for injuries I managed to stay injury free during my time here, and I put it down to all the extra movements before and after each session to ensure your body is ready to tackle and recovers from the WOD. My wife also got involved, and this box offers a nice entry with their conditioning classes that anybody can turn up and have a go, all you need is determination and the right can do attitude. Real people achieving real results, I was really sad to leave this place but will certainly be back for a drop in at some point.

Fantastic experience: My only regret is that it took me so long to walk through the door! It offers a structured approach to training that you won’t find in any other local gym, all wrapped up in a very welcoming and supportive community. All of the coaches are first class and the range of classes offer more than just a standard CrossFit experience. It doesn’t matter what your age or ability there is something to be gained at CSC.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic all round. Great facility, great people, it's more than just a gym, it's a lifestyle and a family.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. Friendly coaches and very friendly members always wanting to help the new comers!

Fantastic experience: Friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Great coach’s awesome atmosphere ,100% worth a visit.

Fantastic experience: I joined Central Staffs CrossFit a few years ago and they welcomed me and made me really feel part of the community, not just a number. It gave me the confidence to tackle the challenges and overcome them. I'd recommend Central Staffs CrossFit to anyone with any ability.

Fantastic experience: Awesome place...

Positive experience: Hard graft!

Positive experience: Friendly box. We were there for a competition and made very welcome

Fantastic experience: Fantastic place, great people, a huge variety of workouts and session times to suite most schedules. Call and arrange a taster session

Fantastic experience: Love this place!

Fantastic experience: I have trained here for around 18 months. The facility and equipment is above what you will find at most boxes. Coaching and atmosphere are very good in classes.

Fantastic experience: I was never exactly a natural athlete and I'm 41 now so a bit late to this! I have a few mobility issues too but that doesn't matter, I've progressed loads since I started 9 months ago. I've gained strength in areas I didn't even know I was weak and learned so much! The coaching is second to none, these guys really know their stuff and I can tell they get a big kick helping people of all abilities to progress. The other members are really friendly and supportive too, I guarantee you will have a laugh! Every movement can be adapted and scaled, so whoever you are and whatever doubts you may have, you should definitely give it a go!

Fantastic experience: This is an excellently equipped gym with some great facilities. Run by Tim, who has a great team with him, all of which have great passion for fitness and supporting their customers. Looking to get fit this is a great choice. Recently expanded to offer even more services and in a good location in Stafford.

Fantastic experience: Just what i was looking for, As i returned to the UK from working abroad, i was glad to find that i had a crossfit affiliate on my doorstep. Tim and the team welcomed me with open arms and made me feel welcome straight away. CSC is the definition of a true crossfit box, with the best community. HIGHLY recommended for anyone with a love for fitness,a place to see significant results and make new friends. #TeamCSC

Fantastic experience: been a member since day one of this place and loved every second of it. The coaching, the workouts, the equipment and most importantly the atmosphere is amazing. I've met lots of great people and great friends through this place, it's more than just a gym. The equipment is top quality and it's guaranteed that someone will be willing to help with whatever you need. This place is above the CrossFit standard and the programming is easily scaleable for beginners right up to professionals. It has something for everyone. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I used to walk into big brand gyms stare at the equipment and think what the hell does that do?! I tried fad fitness classes and didn't really see or feel much of a difference, then I found CSC. Run and coached by knowledgeable and professional people who have taught me so much over a short space of time. All the members cheer each other on during WODs and all personal achievements no matter how big or small are celebrated by the big CSC family. Hugely recommended for all abilities.

Positive experience: Have been a Member for almost a year. It's a truly excellent gym. Not just Crossfit but yoga, mobility, gymnastics and Kids classes with first rate coaches. Being able to train while the kids workout next-door in their own session is a godsend for busy parents. The only reason I don't give it five stars is because It's busy in the evenings, but then I suppose that's a problem of being so welcoming so bound to happen.

Fantastic experience: A fantastic community working together, an awesome atmosphere from kids to silverbacks !) great coaching, great place.

Fantastic experience: I have been a member now for 5 weeks. It is the best box I have been too. The staff are constantly pushing you to improve but within your limits. The community is second to none and whether you are a full member or a drop in you are always welcome and valued!

Fantastic experience: Great place, quite simply if you want to get fit I do not think you are going to find anywhere better. It made the sexual tyrannosaurus I am today

Fantastic experience: It fantastic place to train top notch coaching and a brilliant community come and join the family you will not regret it

Fantastic experience: Fantastic atmosphere! Everyone's really helpful and welcoming the people there make you feel very comfortable regardless of your fitness levels.

Fantastic experience: I have been training here for 6 months and seen great improvement in my strength and fitness as well as learning some new skills. The training is different every day and it is always good fun. The coaches are brilliant and really take the time to make sure you are doing everything with the proper form and push you to improve yourself.

Fantastic experience: Great coaching, great workouts and the best community. My favourite place to train!

Fantastic experience: An amazing place to train, I'm the fittest I have ever been after just a few months training with these guys. The coaching is first rate, the focus is always on your skills and how to help you improve your form and fitness. Fantastic gym with brilliant equipment. Best of all is the community, I have never trained somewhere that is as welcoming and friendly as Central Staffs Crossfit. I can't recommend this place highly enough. Get down there and give it a try.

Fantastic experience: Been a member for about 18m now. LOVE this place. It's fixed my body AND my mind (thanks to close support from awesome coaches & amazing CSC family). Its not just WODs & open gym either, my 7yro adores his Crossfit Kids sessions, there's yoga, strength & conditioning classes, Strongman classes, PT, and you don't have to be a member for those, they're PAYG. Great box.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic coaches, great programming and amazing equipment! The other members are brilliant too - friendly, supportive and a good laugh. I'd recommend it to people of all ages and abilities - check it out!

Fantastic experience: What can I say, an amazing Gym that delivers over and above the CrossFit brand. The coaches across the board are fantastic, the attention to detail is second to none. The box is welcoming, offers workouts for everybody at every level and makes you want to be involved in your own development. I highly recommend this place, so give it a try. Updating this 3 years in and can still say this is the best place I have every trained in. The community is amazing, spured on by owner and coach Tim Fearnett everyone looks to support everyone else. The staff, Tim, Pau, Pat, Nial, Ally and Carlie are all epic in their own way, together they present a welcoming knowledgeable and inviting team. I really cannot express what this place have given me both mentally and physically. Their attention to detail with everyone is second to none. No egos or self promotion needed from those running the place and members truly reflect the love the coaches instill into every aspect of this gym. CSC is more than just a gym, it's a way of life, a way to live...
