Crossfit XI

Fantastic experience: Just under 5000sq ft of gym space. Dumbells, pull up rig, heavy tyres, squat racks, olympic weightlifting bars, tonnes of bumper plates, med balls, kettlebells, concept 2 rowers, ab mats, skipping ropes are all used here. We have a disabled friendly toilet on the ground floor, kitchen with smoothie maker, fridge freezer and eating/drinking equipment. Two showers/bathrooms, a raised mezzanine and chill out area to watch classes or sit down for a chat. It's a classic CrossFit gym set up with huge front end shutter to be opened for those sunny days and outdoor BBQ's. Nice flat runs around the trading park too which is always a bonus.

Fantastic experience: I have been doing CrossFit a long time and this place is probably one of the most supportive and lovely gyms I have ever been too! I needed a change of scenery and a gym that could offer me something more and WOW did I get it! The programming is great with classic CrossFit but also so extra elements, it doesn't matter if you have been doing it 1 week or 10 years - adaptations and skills assesments/reviews are done. If you want to work on something specific then the coaches are happy to accommodate. I find myself asking a lot and they always say yes (Within reason - No injuries! etc...) The facilities are great, loads of room, bright and airy, seating areas and showers. The people who go are fantastic as well, lots of original members and new ones who all socialise and support each other. Everyone needs to trial CrossFit XI.

Fantastic experience: All the coaches here are so friendly and go the extra mile to teach you the correct technique. A really welcoming and friendly place to train and I have learnt so much

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere and great coaching

Fantastic experience: What a pleasant surprise to find a gym that promotes healthy growth. Well balanced programmes pushing your limits but not before covering solid basics and of course safety. I've found a very inclusive enviorment with flexible staff, tailoring and scaling the routine acorrding to the individual. Highly recommended .

Fantastic experience: Brilliant CrossFit box, very welcoming and the programming is fantastic

Fantastic experience: Joining a gym can be daunting. I was nervous to try somewhere new. Worrying about meeting new people and hoping I was fit enough. I wish I’d ignored those thoughts and joined sooner. It really didn’t matter. Any class I go to everyone’s welcome. It’s part of the gyms culture. I love being able to see everyone’s progression. We all have stuff we are working towards. CrossFit XI is such an amazing place to grow and improve. I love the coaching. Each coach brings something different and helps me out. They actually care about our health and looking after ourselves. And have the patience of saints haha. We’ve just completed the first CrossFit Open workout and it was so well organised by the XI team. The atmosphere was so fun and supportive. Deffo come try out the gym. You’ll make some great friends and learn so much about what you are capable of :)

Fantastic experience: Superb classes and really hands-on experienced trainers guiding you through the basics, right up to the advanced techniques! Couldn’t recommend enough to come join or come try out the classes

Fantastic experience: Joined around 6 months ago and was initially nervous to not only join a new gym, but also to start my CrossFit journey. I have been blown away by the level of detail and depth of knowledge the coaches possess and I am in constant awe of the community spirit that encapsulates this wonderful place. If you think CrossFit isn’t for you, then, you’re wrong, CrossFit is for everyone. Sign up, show up, level up.

Fantastic experience: Really knowledgeable and friendly gym.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place. After finding myself in a rut after having a baby, both physically and mentally, I really struggled with the idea of getting back in the gym. A friend recommended I tried the free 3 session on offer and after the first session I was hooked. The gym is a completely judgement free environment and the coaching is second to none!

Fantastic experience: I was always cautious of new groups of people and change. That stopped after just 2 taster sessions for me. The coaches and the group of people that attend here are top class. There is always encouragement and the ability to work on your own goals at your own pace while the coaches give you the skills and guidance to improve and challenge self safely. I have seen so much improvement after years of being in a rut with my training. Can't recommend enough.

Fantastic experience: When I joined CrossFit XI, everyone was so welcoming and the coaches spent so much time getting to know me, what I could and couldn’t do (previous injuries) and understanding what my goals were. I have been doing CrossFit for almost 5 years now and it’s only in the last 9 months since joining CrossFit XI that I have really seen my strength grow. Not only that, but I have made so many new friends and I really feel like I have a healthy mindset when it comes to, not just my training, but how I fuel my body and how I respond when things don’t go to plan. I know CrossFit is daunting to most, but I could not recommend this gym enough. I promise, come for a trial and you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: This place is more than just a gym.... This gym will change your life for the better, I joined September 2021 with no CrossFit experience whatsoever. I did a couple of taster sessions before joining and instantly knew I was in the right place. The coaches - I can't speak of highly enough, fantastic people. Very friendly and will work around your goals with you. Any advice or help needed they are there for you. The community - In the last 6 months I've met some of the best people. This community is the most inclusive and supportive bunch you could ask for. No big ego's, just a group of hard working lovely people. The workouts - Each day the workout is already on the board for you so you don't even have to think "what should I train today?" CrossFit is functional fitness which means each movement will benefit everyday life! The cost - Is there a price on health and happiness? It seems a lot compared to these 24hr gyms, but you're not getting the coaching, community or accountability you will at CrossFit XI. I could write so much more in this review but this place honestly changed my life for the better. I absolutely love this gym. CrossFit XI is the place to be!

Fantastic experience: Super supportive environment. Makes exercising really enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic coaches, friendly, members and a wonderful facility! If you have ever thought of giving Crossfit a try then this place will convert you within your first session! Conversely, if you are a seasoned Crossfitter this gym will be like no other you have attended (and most probably better than your current box) :D The community spirit is a joy to be a part of and this is just the beginning of an amazing journey for Nexus XI! Get involved and see you soon! CFkingo and Harriet

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality More than just a gym, the best box I've trained in. Great equipment, clean box and outstanding coaches. Really great community feel with a variety of excellent classes including Olympic lifting, Conditioning & Team WOD.

Fantastic experience: It's an alright little box good for your early morning sessions. Edit : joined in 2020 after the lockdown and although I'm no fan of running, this week has been a brutal training week but love the feeling of training hard. People of all levels no judgements made,staff always willing to spare 5 minutes to teach a member how to improve on their technique for a particular excercise.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Best place to train I have been absolutely love it. Friendly family atmosphere. Gym for all levels. Being there will get you fitter, did for me.

Fantastic experience: Brilliant facilities, really great coaching and friendly atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: Decided to join a CF / Functional Box since a move the area, there were more option but I follow the reviews, they didn't lie. When through the doors and the first person I talked was James, one of the person in charge of the business, he was friendly, professional and great personality. I thought that will be like a other boxes but he explain all the porpuse of the business, he structure and the mentality. MORE than a normal gym or CrossFit box is health and wellness type of training community.

Fantastic experience: More than just a gym, the best box I've trained in. Great equipment, clean box and outstanding coaches. Really great community feel with a variety of excellent classes including Olympic lifting, Conditioning & Team WOD.

Fantastic experience: I was nervous about starting a new gym but the coaches and members here have made me feel very welcome. Classes are great, lots of space and lots of variety. Coaches retain a keen interest in every member during each class and adapt to suit you, how you are feeling and encouraging progression. All levels of fitness are catered for. I also joined the nutrition program which focuses on healthy choices and fitting in with your own preferences and lifestyle, making it so much easier to stick to. Highly recommended, absolutely love the place.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality More than just a gym. So good to be a part of a friendly community with top level facilities. The coaching and programming is brilliant no matter what level you are. The best part is you’re guaranteed to leave every session with a smile on your face and a sense of achievement.

Fantastic experience: These guys are incredible. XI has such a lovely atmosphere with so many welcoming members and staff, it’s not intimidating like some other gyms when you first join. Everyone is there to have a good time and help each other achieve their goals. They have plenty of different class times to suit anyone and each class is structured perfectly so I don’t have to think about what I’m doing next, I just turn up and train knowing I’m looked after. Nothing is too much for the team and they always find time to help learn new techniques or help you scale the workout to suit you. All in all I love the place, there are closer gyms to me but I choose to travel to XI as for me they’re the best.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member here for just over 3 years, the facility is just fab, great space, all the equipment you will need and coaching standards that by far exceed any other gym I've ever been to and I've been to a lot. Always made to feel welcome and has a community that I'm proud to be part of! Love this place!

Fantastic experience: I joined CrossFit X1X1 9 months ago and it's simply the best thing I have ever done. Both myself and my daughter have not only changed our Body shape but now love our new found friends and feel the box is more than just a gym......it's our family. Come and join us today

Fantastic experience: Been training here since it opened! Great sense of community, amazing coaching!

Fantastic experience: A place offering you bespoke, premier service in all aspects of health, well being and fitness. The ONLY official CrossFit Affiliate in the Walkden, Worsley, Swinton area.

You'll learn so much here, become stronger and fitter than you've ever been before and enjoy it all at the same time.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get fit. Helpful, motivated staff and a real sense of team work make this a great place to go to.
