Fantastic experience: A wonderful inclusive environment with dedicated coaches who are committed to getting the best out of you every workout, no matter your ability. Sessions are always challenging and fun and everyone is super friendly. Couldn’t recommend highly enough
Hey Caitlin, thanks for the great review! Really glad you are enjoying CrossFit with us!
Fantastic experience: I didn't order for a while because of the poor management but now with the new management, the quality in food and service is excellent.
Hi Kian, thanks for the 5 star review but I think you have the wrong place. We are a CrossFit gym based in Birmingham Stirchley. Hope you are able to find what you are looking for!
Positive experience: Nice
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend! Been doing crossfit for 4 months now, and I love the training. The trainers are amazing and the other members are so welcoming and friendly. Great community feeling
Thanks for taking the time to review us Tiff - we’re glad you joined and love that you love the training that our amazing coaches deliver
Fantastic experience: Absolutely fantastic gym, great coaches and members making for a genuinely welcoming, friendly environment. Would recommend to anyone, regardless of where you're at with your fitness.
Thanks Matt - we’re glad you’ve recognised that CrossFit is for anyone regardless of their fitness level!
Fantastic experience: For anyone thinking about trying CrossFit. Give it a try! I put it off for sooo long and now I'm doing it I wish I had started ages ago. Most people will find going to the gym quite daunting but SCFIT is a community where you meet like minded people of all ages, learn and have fun! Joining SCFIT has been the best thing I did!! Ash
Hey Ash, Thanks for leaving a review buddy! I am glad you are enjoying CrossFit and we love having you as a member. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Great cross fit gym with a great atmosphere. Have had some injuries this year but have felt so supported by the knowledgeable coaches who have been able to adapt work outs so that I’m able to still train and build strength to protect me from future injuries. There’s a really caring and supportive atmosphere like nowhere I’ve been before. Couldn’t rate them highly enough.
Thanks for the kind words Faye - we’re glad you’ve made use of our knowledgeable coaches and stayed in our CrossFit classes rather than hiding away!
Fantastic experience: Nothing better than his cupping and massage sessions. Every Saturday i go and i really see the improvements!
I think you might be mixed up with your venues as our physio services are provided by Arca Physiotherapy rather than by us as a CrossFit gym
Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches and great workouts
Cheers Marius, glad you’re loving CrossFit
Fantastic experience: Can't recommend SC CrossFit enough. Welcoming, friendly culture with exceptional coaches who help you push yourself and improve, love it. If you're hesitating or not sure about trying it then would suggest popping in to talk to one of the coaches- that's what I did and haven't looked back!
Thanks for the kind words Ally - we're glad you found CrossFit and found what a positive impact it's had on your life
Fantastic experience: Fantastic crossfit box with great team culture. I joined 3 months ago looking for an alternative to my local gym, havibg never tried crossfit. These coaches are incredible, and you could never find this sort of guidance in a normal gym. SC fitness is in another league, just don't make any comparison to a normal gym because it's not the same at all. Just in case you're reading this having not done crossfit before, I would strongly recommend a visit to chat with one of the coaches about what the place is about.
Hey James, we love having you with us at Second City CrossFit thank you for your great review! We also love to know that what we do isn’t normal!!
Fantastic experience: My experience with CrossFit at second city has helped me learn that I’m capable of so much. Due to great programming and coaching as a whole my fitness and strength have been on a steady rise along side each other. Second city has a great community with suitable workouts to fit all levels or experience in CrossFit.
Thanks Dan! So glad you joined us and glad you find value in the CrossFit coaching you get on a daily basis!
Fantastic experience: This gym provides great workouts, awesome coaching and motivates you to come back for more! Highly recommend!
Hey Meghan! Thanks for the great review! Glad we can help provide you with motivation to stay fit and healthy
Fantastic experience: Welcoming, inclusive, fun, great coaching. There’s something for everyone, whatever your age or ability. 100% recommend !
Thank you Mel!
Negative experience: Very expensive

Fantastic experience: The best crossfit community in Birmingham
Hey Nik! Thanks for the great review, glad you are enjoying CrossFit with us in Birmingham!
Fantastic experience: Been a client for six months now working 1-2-1 with Gareth. He is the perfect PT. Funny, supportive and still a brutal taskmaster.
Thanks Alister! We love having you with us at Second City!
Fantastic experience: I have been at the gym for about 10 months now and have never felt more motivated about 'doing fitness'. The team have been consistently supportive from the day I started (with a rabbit-in-the-headlights look in my eyes!!) ...but they have challenged me beyond what I ever thought possible. Every class I leave with a big smile across my face. I can't get enough! :)
Hey Claudia! So happy you are enjoying CrossFit with us! We love having you as part of the SCFIT community!
Negative experience: So expensive!
Hi WDB69, have you been down to the gym so we can explain the services we offer? We would love to hear from you please contact us on [email protected]
Positive experience: Handy to hospital and toilets in store
Hi Roy, I think you may have us mistaken for another business. We are a gym based in Stirchley, Birmingham, don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or we can help!
Fantastic experience: cool spacious gym, a lot of cool equipment
Thanks Adam - we pride ourselves on having the space and equipment and then the professional staff to guide you in using it!
Fantastic experience: I went to watch a competition there but am also currently contemplating joining a gym. Really well set out and stocked, plenty of space to workout.. There's a really friendly atmosphere, 2 members of staff came over to introduce themselves and say hi to me and my daughter. It's not intimidating like I've experienced in other 'chain' gyms. There's a good variety of people there. I should add my interest is in free weights rather than rows upon rows of cardio machines.
It was so Great to meet you Karen, we would love to see you again soon
Fantastic experience: Wonderful box with an awesome set of coaches. Have been going for nearly a year and always feel like I get an informative and challenging workout whenever I'm here; delivered in a safe and enjoyable atmosphere. On my 1:1 sessions Ben as been brilliant at helping me focus on my core skills, as well as giving me the confidence and mindset with which to approach future workouts. Cheers Second City
Thanks buddy. So great to have you as part of the SCFIT community
Fantastic experience: Great place and great coaches. Recommended.
Thanks for recommending us Javier!
Fantastic experience: The best CrossFit box in the West Midlands!! One month in after not being in a box from March 2020. I have been made to feel so welcome. I was a bit nervous but instantly put at ease. The coaches are attentive, supportive and really want you to get the best from each workout. The environment is good and lots of options for you to customise to your skill base. I can’t recommend enough ! Update - I’ve been a member 12 months plus .. it’s the best box in the West Midlands. Professional, well run, excellent coaches , the members are really ace. I can’t say anything more to say how good it is .
Thanks Steph! We love having you as part of our community
Fantastic experience: Great gym, coaches are very knowledgable and you feel like you're in good hands. The atmosphere is so friendly! Also good value for what you get.
Your perception of value matches ours Jamie! Thanks for your kind words
Fantastic experience: Great gym with a fantastic team of staff who are passionate about getting the most out of all members. I have only been a member for a few weeks and I am already really impressed - especially with how they have adapted their services during this current lockdown. Keep up all the good work!
The fact you're still around shows us that we're doing something right Josie! Thanks!
Positive experience: Great place
Thanks for the review Jah, how can we get 5 stars from you if 3 stars is a "great place"?
Fantastic experience: Very clean and well kept gym. Extremely professional coaches. Highly recommend it.
Thanks for recommending us Saad, it's always a pleasure to have you in the gym
Fantastic experience: Very friendly, fantastic workouts and community
Thanks for the kind words Eirian, even better to know that you value the community
Fantastic experience: Really enjoying CrossFit in Selly Oak. Amazing team, committed and passionate about fitness and people and a great team atmosphere. Much better way to exercise and get results! Thanks team!
You have made loads of progress with the combination of CrossFit, nutrition and PT James
Fantastic experience: Very welcoming and friendly staff and members. Emphasis on good safe technique. Lots of support offered to meet goals. A nice change from traditional style gyms. Cross fit is tough but doable for any fitness level challenges you to get to next level. I would recommend Second City if you want a change and need a challenge and a friendly atmosphere.
Thanks Juanita, we’re glad you enjoy your CrossFit classes on your fitness journey
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place for people of all fitness levels, as well as the classes the one to one session greatly improved the functionality of my shoulder which I had injured during Marine training. The gym itself is more of a community and although I have only been attending for a month I'm already starting to feel part of the family. Probably the best bit though is the healthy cakes that members make and leave for everyone to enjoy, well earned after a hard training session! Although some of the moves and weights that you'll see members do look extremely daunting, the coaches are professional and extremely attentive! My coach Oliver looks at my movements from every angle and massivley improved my ability within just a few weeks through his vast knowledge of the various sports that make up CrossFitt and his charismatic approach.
Cheers Jay, we have found that our focus on personal training as well as CrossFit classes really works well like you have found
Fantastic experience: Have just finished my first month and have really enjoyed it. The coaches are great and you get lots of attention and advice.
Great to have you back Chris - straight back in to CrossFit and chatting about science
Fantastic experience: A gym run by people who are passionate about what they do filled with the most welcoming people. Joined Second city CrossFit a few months ago and feel like I have always been here! Very rare to find such a high standard of coaching as at this gym; not to mention the endless support- from taking their own time to answer any questions and give you extra help to offering goal-setting meetings. Whether you’re new to CrossFit or experienced this is the perfect place to reach your full potential, surrounded by knowledgeable coaches and supportive members. I’m a poor student and it’s worth every penny so that’s saying something:)
Glad you found a welcoming place to do CrossFit and get coached even with budget constraints
Fantastic experience: Love this place! I can't rate them high enough. Excellent coaches, an amazing environment and so many friendly faces every time you walk in. They've helped me get fitter, love my time in the gym and learn new things I would never have thought I could do. It's really close to the train station too which is really helpful on those busy days :)
Thank you for your kind words Sarah, you're a pleasure to have in the gym!
Fantastic experience: Great environment great teaching
Thanks - with our focus coaching and teaching we aim to provide a world class CrossFit gym
Fantastic experience: Fun, hard work, expect to sweat!! Best value for money gym.
Great to see you talk about value for money along with the fun you have!
Fantastic experience: I've been training at SCCF on and off for 3 years since moving to Birmingham and I don't fancy moving and going anywhere else. You always get a friendly welcome when you walk in, the coaches have a wealth of knowledge to help you. They listen to their members alot changing the programmes to what we ask for or adding new classes and reinvest back into the gym always buying new equipment. I'm not a fan of normal gyms and had never picked up a barbell before coming here but that didn't matter. Whatever background or fitness level you are you will feel part of the family.
Thanks Chantelle, we’re glad you appreciate the coaching and the friendly welcome
Fantastic experience: The best gym in Birmingham
Fantastic experience: Dropped into the box while visiting family in town. The coaches were very Friendly and made me feel at home The gym is massive! The biggest I have ever seen. Great equipment and a good crowd for the workout. Definitely had a good workout and will plan to come back here again whenever I am in the area
Cheers Noah - we love having travelling CrossFitters drop in!
Fantastic experience: Great people, great facilities and everything can be tailored to what you’re capable of!
Thanks Shane - glad we can still tailor things to suit you 5 years down the line!
Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for over five years and it's made me fitter than I've ever been in my life. As well as the great coaching, the community is welcoming, friendly and incredibly supportive.
CrossFit FTW Joe!
Fantastic experience: Amazing friendly gym with great facilities and a brilliant community spirit.
Fantastic experience: Joining SCCF was the best decision I made when I moved to Birmingham 6 months ago. Excellent facilities, fantastic coaches and a great atmosphere. Would 100% recommend whether you are starting out with fitness or whether you have been in a gym routine for years.
Fantastic experience: I was only able to be a member for a month while working in Birmingham, but being a member at Second City for that month was one of the best things I did. Coaches are great they are knowledgeable, helpful and welcoming. Facilities and equipment are great as well. Kind and welcoming community. Good place for anyone new to crossfit or for those with lots of experience. Enjoyed my time there.
Negative experience: Paid £150 for fundamentals course and I could finish it in the time period so they dropped me
Fantastic experience: Super group. great gym. Great coaches
Fantastic experience: The best gym in town
Fantastic experience: I love this place, and everyone in it. I’ve never actually managed to keep up a gym membership before, spending money every month for something I never used. But since discovering CrossFit and SCCF in November 2014 I’ve been going to the gym on average 2-3 times a week. My life, body and fitness have drastically improved. Highly recommend all of the staff and all of the members.
Fantastic experience: The best CrossFit coaches
Fantastic experience: Very Welcoming and great coaching !!
Fantastic experience: After going for some time at a regular gym, I decided a change is in order so I joined SCCF for crossfit workouts and I soon found out that everything is very well structured. You first start on a special foundations class where you learn the basic movements of crossfit. After that you have a choice of taking barbell orientated classes which build your strength, sweat classes which focuses on improving your stamina and endurance or you can jump into a workout of the day class which in a way combines the first 2 type of classes. There is also access to the gym if you don't want to take a class, but attending the classes is the bread and butter of crossfit as you learn to do different kind of movements with proper technique and get to share the 'hardship' of the training with other people in the class. You can also choose to do 1 to 1 training with a coach if you feel you need more guidance , but training coaches are very good and attend to everybody during the regular classes. I certainly didn't regret moving up from the regular gym as I get the most out of my time in the crossfit box and I encourage everybody to give it a go as it's the best way to boost your health in the long run.
Fantastic experience: SCCF is so much better than a normal gym - you get built-in coaching, motivation and a whole community of like-minded people to help you reach your goals.
Fantastic experience: Fantastic coaches who strike the right balance between pushing you and making sure your moving safely. Really fun and friendly community...highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Awesome place with great atmosphere. The coaching team and facilities are best in class - great bunch of people.
Fantastic experience: Great box with brilliant coaches that have a fantastic understanding of all things crossfit and weightlifting!
Fantastic experience: Brilliant gym with supportive, knowledgeable coaches and classes designed to cater for all abilities. Unlike the other gyms I have joined in the past you are challenged every session, resulting in both visible changes and increased fitness levels, which happen very fast. There is also a friendly, diverse community within the gym who motivate you to attend regularly. I really could not recommend it enough whether you are a beginner or an experienced athlete.
Fantastic experience: Great facility, great coaches and all round great place to train. Get yourself down there.....
Fantastic experience: Great place to train for cross fit or if you want access to Olympic Weightlifting.
Fantastic experience: Best place to train in Birmingham! Excellent facilities/equipment. Friendly & helpful coaching

Fantastic experience: Classic Gym, Nice equipment
Fantastic experience: Fantastic Xfit gym. Great staff and users. A good atmosphere.
Fantastic experience: One of the largest and spacious CrossFit boxes I have visited (of the few I have) friendly and helpful coaches and members. Nice little seating area along with blackboards for goals and discussion topics, a nice touch
Fantastic experience: These guys (and gals) will change your life. You'll move well, become stronger and more efficient. Being a distance runner Crossfit (and some running specific programming from Mike!) has given me stronger core and stopped my regular running injuries. highly recommended!!
Fantastic experience: Nice place. And the best for crossfit in birmingham
Fantastic experience: Brilliant coaching, friendly staff & members. You won't be disappointed, you will get fit & achieve things you didn't think possible!
