Colossus - Kingston

I joined Colossus shortly after having my son and I was a little worried about how I would go. That worry was VERY short lived. After stepping foot into the gym, Hamish and all the coaches were incredibly supportive, knowledgeable and genuinely took care in helping me get back into exercising safely and seeing some huge improvements in a really short amount of time. The best thing about Colossus is the people. Everyone is so kind, friendly and willing to have a good chat and encourage each other to get through the workout.
Definitely the best decision I have made in a long while!

Ever since day 1 at Crossfit Colossus the coaches have all been highly professional, friendly, knowledgeable and down to Earth towards myself and all other members.

The community at Colossus is amazing and everyone is so supportive and encouraging.

The whole atmosphere and vibes in the gym really help you push yourself to achieve your fitness goals.

One of the best things about this gym is how the coaches are adaptive and will cater for everyone’s individual abilities to ensure that every member, regardless of where they are on their journey, is supported and guided accordingly.

I highly recommend Crossfit Colossus

I started at Colossus in January after taking 2 years off strength training to rehab an injury I sustained at another gym. I was very ambivalent about re-injury or being pushed too fast, but I had nothing to worry about. Jimmy and Hamish are both amazing with injury management and recovery and all the coaches ensure correct and safe technique is used at all times. They happily scale any workout to suit any skill level and never make you feel silly for modifications. I’ve seen great results plus I’m surrounded by a community of awesome people. Great gym!

CrossFit Colossus is a great place for anyone who is looking to make improvements in all aspects of their life. It may be classified as a gym, but it is much more than that. In my 2 years with Colossus, I’ve been lucky enough to have had tuition and programming by excellent coaches, who have also taken the time to become friends and mentors in my CrossFit journey and also my life’s journey. There is something to be said about the CrossFit community at Colossus, it is very inviting and inclusive, but by the same token it is your choice how much you want to engage, it’s good if you do, but it’s no problem if you don’t. It also doesn’t matter what level of fitness you bring to the box and it doesn’t matter if you think you’re not ready. It can be hard taking that first step and it does feel intimidating, but you soon realize that everyone at the box is on their own journey and that they are more than happy to give encouragement and support, because everyone remembers that first step, I know I do! I really enjoy seeing people improve and watching how quickly they start doing things that when they started, they thought was impossible. The coaches explain and demonstrate all exercises and offer up alternatives if you have limitations or are not ready for the more technical exercises. Finally, if you’re thinking about trying Colossus out, I hope from what you have read above, that you give them a go because they can help you set goals and along with the awesome bunch of coaches and athletes, the support will be there to make sure you achieve those goals. If you want it bad enough, you can have it!

What sets Crossfit Colussus apart from other gyms is the excellent coaching and friendly environment. I never thought Crossfit was for me, but from Day 1 they've provided a program suitable to any fitness type, with plenty of options to scale, all under the watchful eye of the Colussus coaching team. I love how the sessions start with a deliberate warm-up focusing on the muscle groups that will be in use, followed by a skills/strength piece, and then finishing with conditioning. Couldn't recommend Hamish and his team more!

Training here is the reason I get out of bed most mornings and even when struggling will get in and finish with a smile. I was immediately welcomed when I joined and now call the community good mates and family.

The coaches are a breadth of knowledge and experience who will each give you something to focus on. They cater to everyone regardless of experience, age or gender and all the members will support you.

A gym truly for everyone! The community is top notch, welcoming and all embracing. The coaches meet you where you are at and listen to your individual goals and motivations. It's so simple to come in regardless of what you are training for and find support.

I am grateful to find a local gym with class times that fit my schedule. Not having to go into Hobart each day has improved my home life greatly. Even though I am older and not a crossfit “type” the trainers have helped me and adjusted exercises to suit. I like feeling that I am improving my health and strength as I age.

Stopped here last week to see what classes they ran here- found the staff and instructors both helpful and informative. So would definately, recommend anyone looking for a smaller, more personal local gym in the Kingston area.

A very supportive and fun environment to get fit in. Workouts are very varied and scalable for all skill levels. I'm hideously uncoordinated - but nonetheless, all trainers have been very friendly, knowledgeable and patient in helping me improve.

Absolutely love being apart of such a motivating and supportive group of people! Don't worry about how fit or unfit you are - Jimmy, Hamish and the team will help you achieve your goals no matter how big or small they might be. Love the ever changing workouts and always leave feeling amazing - thanks guys!

I was only in Tasmania for a visit and was immediately welcomed into this facility as if I had been a member for years! A great bunch of people, amazing club culture..

Training in many clubs around the world as I travel, it was amazing to be made to feel at home straight away and we were even invited to their member events even though we were only in town for a week! This is community.

I came to Colossus as just an average runner who did nothing else for exercise.
After only 9 months of Colossus and much less running , I am stronger than I have ever been in my life.....and my run times are better !

So much more than just a place to exercise. Amazing sense of community where you are immediately welcomed, supported and encouraged to push yourself, challenge yourself and be the best version of you, irrespective of age, fitness level or ability, there is a place for everyone ..an inclusive fun filled space. Bless

I’m only a newbie to Colossus Kingston, but am loving it so much! Such a friendly, encouraging & motivating group of people! After going to this gym wouldn’t go anywhere else!!!

Great gym, with a caring crew who go the extra distance for their members. Big focus on technique and safe lifting= legends.

Amazing place to train! Fun and challenging classes :) the trainers always know exactly how much to push you and will never ask you to do anything you don't feel comfortable doing!

Very friendly and very helpful to help you attain your best performance. Exceptional knowledge about fitness and strength based exercises. Highly recommend

I feel privileged to have the opportunity to train at such a facility.

As far as I’m concerned it is by far the leading facility of its type within the Kingborough municipality, or indeed the greater Hobart region.

Most supportive gym I’ve ever been apart of and such a fun atmosphere!
