Crossfit Pendle

Fantastic experience: I started going to the gym at seven years of age. I first started to learn ju jitsu and then progressed to a boxing gym at nine. I learned how to use weights to a certain extent and I joined Pendle Health Club at 14 as a junior. I started training in Thai boxing around the same time and I subsequently went to train with Master Sken then Master Chana. I also trsined in Berlin, Amsterdam and Thailand. I purchased my own gym at 19 and only due to health reasons I gave it up five years ago. In my time I gained numerous qualifications, represented my country, became the British lightweight champion as a professional and trained 14 British, European and World champions. The reason I've written all this is not in anyway to 'big myself up', but because I really wanted to legitimise what I am going to write next. As you can see. I have trained all my life. I've been lucky to have trained with world class athletes and been taught by world class trainers. I had to have five years off as I was diagnosed with heart failure. I am now stable and I am on medication. I got fat, unhealthy and very unfit as I couldn't train and I comfort ate. I was really nervous about joining CrossFit. I knew everybody would be much younger, stronger, healthier, fitter and in much better shape. Walking through the door the first day was like walking into a boxing ring for the first time. My mouth was dry and I was slightly nauseous. Within 30 seconds I was welcomed and made to feel at ease though. I was one of about 10 new starters and there were about 8 coaches. They immediately introduced themselves and they went through the various techniques systematically and precisely. Although I'd trained for years, I'd never done Olympic lifting and my technique was awful. From those first moments though, I was shown what to do and how to do it. Every movement was broken down and I left the session feeling confident and that I'd already started to learn new skills. Since I started my technique has improved with each visit. There's many exercises I can't do yet as my fitness levels are still way off what I'd like them to be. The coaches just alter things for you though to make sure you can still be fully involved without the fear of looking silly as you're not quite ready to do the full techniques. I cannot emphasise enough how professional and knowledgeable these coaches are and the time they spend with you is absolutely outstanding. I cannot recommend CrossFit enough. No matter if you're a highly trained athlete (I was one) or you are starting from scratch, unfit, overweight or lack in confidence (that was me) then CrossFit is for you. Is it hard? Yes! Will you benefit? Absolutely! Paul.

Fantastic experience: Coaches are very encouraging and supportive as are other members of the group. Everyone works at their own level so no worries about not being able to keep up.

Fantastic experience: Great place to come and train.

Fantastic experience: Positive Atmosphere. High quality coaching combined with challenging workouts. I have a disability and all movements can be scaled to my needs without any fuss and without any attention drawing to it. Lots to learn and whatever fitness level you are at you are bound to improve. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: When I joined CrossFit Pendle, I was so nervous but from the moment I walked through the door I was made to feel at ease. The coaches are brilliant and all so helpful. The way the coaches help you when needed is second to none. If you’re insecure just ask and you’ll get an answer and the help you need. I’ve been a member of many gyms but always seemed to have a lack of interest after a while. Not with CrossFit Pendle I feel like it’s the place I should have always been.

Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit in March 2020 as I wanted to start training with weights and learn how lift them correctly. We then went into lockdown and I have to say the coaches have been brilliant at keeping me motivated. I borrowed kit from the gym to use at home and I have become a daily zoomer doing classes via zoom, which are brilliant. There’s no way I could of kept myself motivated to exercise on my own without the zoom classes. The coaches are very knowledgable and classes can be adapted to suit every individual needs. Thank you coaches and fellow zoomers for your support and motivation through lockdown . Looking forward to the gym reopening soon

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to CrossFit Pendle for nearly five years now, and it’s honestly been the best decision I ever made, in regards to my fitness journey! I love the atmosphere, the varied workouts, the chance to learn new skills, and the little extended family I’ve made there (on top of my three siblings who I roped into joining!) It’s my go to place to shake off a bad day, ease any worries or stress and just have fun in a safe, non-judgemental environment!

Fantastic experience: Would Highly recommend Crossfit Pendle, Mike, the coaches and the atmosphere is second to none and makes going to the gym stress free and definitely more enjoyable than a conventional gym! All the workouts are programmed for you each day, which was extremely helpful during lockdown, the whole team ensured all the members kept fit, motivated and connected via daily zoom workouts. All the coaches are highly skilled and can scale/change any movement down to your ability so you’re always in safe hands whatever the workout is. I wouldn’t ever go anywhere else to workout

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried conventional gyms in the past and I’ve always found that it was hard to stick at as I didn’t really enjoy it and purely went to keep fit/lose weight. At CrossFit Pendle, the concept is completely different. A new workout is programmed each day so you don’t get bored or are stuck for what to do next. The coaching is second to none and good form and injury prevention is paramount. The gym is always kept to really high standards; clean and with the best, up to date equipment. Everything is scalable so you start at your level and work your way up as your ability improves. Not only do you lose weight and keep fit, but you do it in a really enjoyable way. Progressing and seeing yourself do something that you couldn’t weeks ago is really rewarding. The atmosphere is electric and other members are really friendly and encouraging. I would definitely recommend trying it out.

Fantastic experience: I started Crossfit Pendle in November 2017 and not looked back, previous gym and exercise programmes don't even come close to the motivation, dedication and support you receive from the excellent coaching, try one of the free taster sessions and see for yourself!

Fantastic experience: Crossfit pendle is more than just a gym, it has a great community feel with all members supporting one another and the coaches giving first class training in every class. It gives me much more challenge than a normal gym, there are different types of classes like team up, partner workouts and gymnastics which give a great variety to training making crossfit always exciting. Definitely the best gym I’ve been to!

Fantastic experience: If you want to get fit, lose weight, enjoy training, make new friends then Crossfit Pendle is a must. I have lost over a stone since I’ve been back. Every class is different and accommodates every level of fitness....I I love not having to wait for a bench to come free or think about what exercise I’m going to do next. It’s all done for me & the coaches are great!!

Fantastic experience: The Crossfit Pendle the best choice I ever did in my fittnes time... Starting home DVD then join gym learn to lift... But I did not feel satisfied... I wanted cardio and weight training same time crossfit is the way to be... And people over there so welcoming so friendly... no chance would go back to regular gym not missing at all...Crossfit all the way ♡♡♡

Crossfit is a great way to have fitness in your life without it feeling like an overwhelming effort. Crossfit Pendle has a fun and supportive community and awesome coaches who keep you safe whilst driving your skills and fitness to another level.

Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit about 2 months ago to improve my fitness. I really enjoy the workouts and how it can all be scaled to your own level. I always come away feeling good. The workouts never get any easier but you get out what you put in. The coaching is top notch and there is always help available.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love CrossFit!!! Every day is different and a new challenge. I love the atmosphere and energy at CrossFit. There are some really inspiring coaches and other CrossFitters who have started where I have and achieved so much. Almost 6 months since I joined CrossFit and it’s the best decision I ever made! I am feeling fitter, stronger and leaner and I’m doing something I love. Excited to see how I will progress.....

Fantastic experience: Joining Crossfit Pendle has genuinely been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'm the fittest, strongest and happiest I've ever been. The change in my health both physically and mentally in such a short space of time is amazing. The classes have small numbers and are varied and fun. The coaches are all massively supportive and with their encouragement I've achieved things I wouldn't have thought possible. The best thing about Crossfit Pendle though is the community. Everyone is welcoming, friendly and supportive and I've made so many amazing friends. I've never been to a more social, open and friendly gym and would recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: If you want to get fit, lose weight, enjoy training, make new friends, be part of a community then, Crossfit Pendle is a must. I have lost over two stone and I have never felt fitter or stronger. Every class is different and accommodates every level of fitness, whether you are new to exercise or experienced. Our fantastic coaches will guide you all the way, so you can achieve exactly what you came through the doors to do. For me it has been a life changing experience I hope it can be for you to.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of several gyms and leisure centres in the past and was constantly looking for the next, new fitness class that would add some variety to an otherwise boring fitness routine. I completed my fundamentals session at Crossfit Pendle almost two and a half years ago and I've never looked back. The coaches are fantastic and it's great to be able to wander into the gym each day and know that all the programming is done for you, you just turn up and work out with friends! The members are fantastic and always make sure new members feel welcome. So much more than just a fitness facility - try it for yourself!

Fantastic experience: Having tried loads of other gyms & different types of classes there is nothing quite like CrossFit to get you motivated & give you the push you need. At CrossFit Pendle there is always a great atmosphere and the coaches are always on hand to help, guide & encourage. In terms of fitness, support and most importantly enjoyment there is no better place to be.

Fantastic experience: I have Been at Crossfit Pendle for a year, best gym I have ever joined, I don’t think I could walk back into a non-Crossfit gym without feeling board and lonely given the interaction from the Crossfit Pendle team, the volume of different workouts and the there is a loverly Pendle Gym community. Also love the fact Crossfit does kids classes, my daughters favorite day of the week.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Pendle is totally what you make of it. If you want to just get in, work hard and go home then you can do and no one will judge you for it. But if you want to go down to get a sweat on whilst socialising with some inspiring, happy & friendly people then you'll get more than what you ever bargained for. If you're thinking of booking a taster session then just do it! You might feel intimated but there's absolutely no need to. Everything can be modified to suit your ability and everyone is happy to help get you set up! Give it a try!

Fantastic experience: I love Cross Fit- I joined in Feb and wow great experience, fantastic people, amazing coaches feel fitter in myself already n lost weight! I always feel amazing after a CrossFit WOD! thank you

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to Crossfit pendle since it first opened, and have attended more than 1,000 classes, I could never ever go back to a normal gym, since coming to Crossfit pendle I have never been bored or dissapointed with the classes because they are all varied, and have made a lifelong friend in Dawn Campbell and loads of other new friends, we are always well taken care of in the instruction of all movements, which for me are often a challenge, so whatever I don't do well I'm always given scaled down options. So dont be scared of joining Crossfit Pendle, all abilities are welcomed and new friends await. Come and join us.

Fantastic experience: Been attending CrossFit pendle for 6 months now and so happy with how much improvement I’ve seen with my fitness! The coaches are great very supportive and encouraging!

Fantastic experience: I joined crossfit 8 months ago and I can honestly say that it was the best decision I made last year. I have always been into my fitness but i felt like i needed more than what a normal gym could provide, I found I was getting bored of the usual treadmill session then trying to figure out what I should do next. When my friend said she had joined crossfit I wasn't in the slightest bit interested in joining but she persuaded me to try a free beginner's class which I did! Well what can I say! I absolutely loved it, it pushed me, challenged me and gave me a massive buzz that I'd lost going to my usual gym. Im fitter, so much stronger and loving my training more than ever. An added bonus is the friends I've made here, people have helped, encouraged and supported me from the very start! Its a proper little community! Another thing you do not get at your normal gym! This isn't a place just for the fittest people though, absolutely any ability can join crossfit and get as much out of it as the next person, as every movement we do can be scaled right down to suit you. so please do not be put off if you feel you might not be as fit or able to do the movements that others can do. Just give it a try, what've you got to lose!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Pendle coaches are passionate, knowledgeable and excel in CrossFit which is infectious to train around. Within a safe environment, under the supervision of qualified CrossFit coaches, they encourage and teach you how to push yourself physically and mentally, to become fitter, to become faster, to become stronger together. Enjoying every step of my fitness journey at CrossFit Pendle.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going about 2 months and the trainers breakdown all moves to an ability that you can master and then up your level at your own time. Everyone is approachable and helpfull. I love it

Fantastic experience: Great coaches, great atmosphere and great members. I have only been a member for a couple of months and already addicted. CrossFit Pendle is like no other Gym or fitness centre. The facilities are excellent, the coaches are amazingly helpful. It is a community atmosphere from all. Every class is different and challenging but with support from the staff and all the members make it feel that little bit easier. Hope to be a member of this great facility for years to come.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for just over a year now and joining is one of the best things I’ve done. Before I joined I was just turning up to a normal gym going through the motions not really making any progress and struggling for motivation. Decided to give Crossfit a go and from the start I loved it. All the coaches do a top job and help you throughout the classes and to see the progress I’ve made in a year is amazing. Couldn’t recommend Crossfit pendle enough!

Fantastic experience: If you’re someone who doesn’t want to think about what they need to do to keep fit but wants to be guaranteed a great work out with fantastic coaches that have your back and a great community spirit, then get to CrossFit Pendle and give it a go. Once you’re there, you’re hooked!! Love it, dropped weight, changed shape and improved strength!

Fantastic experience: Give it a go, you won’t regret it. I started in December doing once a week, and built to twice, three times and now I’m coming four times a week, when I can, and I LOVE IT!! It’s a great all over body workout and I’ve met loads of great people/friends.

Fantastic experience: Rapidly approaching 40 and a recent ex smoker I wanted to 'get fit' but knew jogging or a regular gym would not motivate me. I then heard about Crossfit, so I Googled it and liked the concept. Crossfit Pendle was nearest to me so I booked on for the fundamentals. I'm so glad I did as that was nearly 2 years ago. I've loved every class and I'm now the fittest I have ever been with the motivation to keep going! The coaches are all fantastic. They will give you all the advice and guidance you need whatever your ability. Everybody at Crossfit Pendle are so friendly and supportive. I'd highly recommend it to anybody of any age or ability.

Fantastic experience: I joined this great gym over a year ago. There's none of that same routine/same song for months on end, in fact I've not repeated the same WOD in all the time since I joined. There's a lot to be said for the enthusiasm/encouragement that our coaches give each and every time , whether you scale or RX. Give it a go, you really wouldn't regret it!

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Crossfit Pendle wanting to try crossfit. All the coaches are fantastic and make you feel very welcome. I have enjoyed every single session I’ve been too. All the lifts are explained really well and the coaches are very encouraging. Give it a go!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place, if I don't go I get withdrawal symptoms. Coaches are absolutely fantastic and know there stuff, nothing is ever to much hard work for them. If you want to improve your fitness and see results this is the place to go!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been at CrossFit Pendle for around 8 months now, joining was honestly the best decision I’ve ever made. I was really nervous to start as I didn’t have much gym experience but now I really wish I joined sooner! The coaches are really helpful and supportive as is the gyms community.

Fantastic experience: I started at Crossfit Pendle over a year ago without any CrossFit experience. I was hooked with the first session. My biggest regret is not joining years ago!! The coaches are all super friendly and very helpful. They encourage you and are passionate about making your Crossfit journey fun. It’s a gym like no other, a supportive community and I’m proud to be part of Crossfit Pendle

Fantastic experience: Love coming here, everyone is welcoming and friendly, the coaches are great. Everyone is a team it’s a great place to go get fit, meet new people, be sociable! Realistic aims that are achievable with fantastic support!

Fantastic experience: I joined crossfit about 7 weeks ago and I can honestly say I'm already addicted! I was bored with regular gyms and fitness classes as I felt I wasn't being pushed to my limits or challenged enough to get results. After following CrossFit Pendle on Facebook for a while I plucked up the courage to book a taster session and instantly knew this was what I needed. The coaches are very friendly and will help you every step of the way on each workout as will the members of CrossFit. The workouts are short but intense and already I can see the results on my body! Would recommend CrossFit over and over to anyone looking for a fun, exciting challenge with guaranteed results.

Fantastic experience: Great coaches with a wealth of experience, knowledge and patience. Programming is well-thought, allowing you to work on weaknesses and further progress your strengths. Would definitely recommend it - whatever fitness level you are at!

Fantastic experience: CrossFit Pendle is by far the best Gym I've ever been to, the lifts are interesting and skill's based, particularly the gymnastic movements, this results in a really satisfying and motivating way of training. The coaches are very helpful and knowledgeable and there is a great atmosphere at the gym during the workouts. CrossFit enables you to train and push yourself far harder than you ever could do in a normal gym, the competitive element of CrossFit makes motivation for workouts easy as long as you turn up you will push yourself! Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

Fantastic experience: the best move i ever made was to try crossfit pendle, great programing coaching and community to be a part of . i have been training here for over a year and wouldn't go anywhere else now.

Fantastic experience: After spending the last few years in a small "muscle" type gym I became bored of the workouts and started looking for an alternative. Coming from that sort of environment I was very sceptical about Crossfit. It's easy to crack jokes about Crossfit because it's different, but until you've given it a try I would advise against judging it. It really doesn't matter about your level of fitness because every workout is scaled specifically to you. Coaches are great at motivating you through a workout and have extensive knowledge if you are interested in the science behind any movement or exercise you do. I would highly recommend Crossfit Pendle to anyone who want's to get fit, keep fit or get even fitter.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Pendle is an excellent gym! I have had a number of gym memberships in this area and nothing comes close to the quality of Crossfit Pendle! The coaches are excellent, always friendly and welcoming and most of all they know their stuff and definitely practice what they preach! There is plenty of variety in classes from spinning to gymnastics. They really to cater for all needs and abilities. Top gym... Best in the area by a country mile!

Fantastic experience: I joined Crossfit Pendle almost a year ago and it's the best workout experience I've ever had. I'm now fitter, healthier and stronger than I've ever been. The coaches are very experienced, knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend it to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I have tried going to a traditional gym but never really found it interesting. The trainers at Crossfit Pendle teach you the correct technique and will show you different options to build up to it if you are not capable when you start. Not only do you get fit you also learn the correct way to exercise. Would recommend to anyone who is considering giving it a go.

Fantastic experience: Love Crossfit Pendle! The coaches are excellent, supportive and encouraging. They really are experts in their field and always willing to pass on their knowledge to help you improve your technique and performance. The facilities are great! There is a real community feel at Crossfit Pendle. I would definitely recommend to everyone, regardless of your fitness level. The programming can be tailored to suit absolutely anyone.

Fantastic experience: Been going to crossfit pendle for nearly a year and i love it!!! The coaches,staff and members are all amazing the support and guidance I've been given is second to none. Highly recommend trying it out. If I can do it any one can

Fantastic experience: Crossfit Pendle is life! It completely changed my motivation and desire to train. Can't fault the coaches or the programming especially the newest coach .
