SHRED CrossFit

Fantastic place. Marcus and his coaches are very welcoming and you can tell they genuinely want the best for their athletes. Whether you are new to CrossFit or seasoned you will have a great work out here. I cannot say enough positive things after over a year and a half of training at Shred!

What an amazing place! My new favorite place to drop in when I’m in Columbus. Marcus and his team made my wife and I feel like family from the moment we walked in the door. Great facility, great equipment, great programming - can’t give enough praise. We will be back for sure!! Thank you!!

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I am CrossFit-lite, by no means an athlete, but looking for something that has variety, challenge, a full workout and a great atmosphere. Instructors and owners are incredible friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. From the outside looking it, it seems like it could be intimidating to join, but once inside that could not be further from the way it is. Also, the other athletes are incredibly welcoming, all levels of fitness. Definitely recommend contacting them to ask questions and setup a trial.

I've been a member of Shred CrossFit for more than four years so this review is long overdue!

Shred CrossFit is an absolute gem in the world of fitness, and I cannot express my gratitude and excitement enough for being a part of this incredible community! From the moment I walked through the doors, I knew I had found my fitness home.

First and foremost, the coaches at Shred CrossFit are nothing short of amazing. Their expertise, enthusiasm, and dedication to helping each and every member reach their fitness goals is truly commendable. Whether you're a seasoned CrossFit veteran or a complete beginner, the coaches take the time to provide personalized guidance and support, ensuring that you not only perform at your best but also enjoy every step of the journey.

The owner, who radiates passion for health and wellness, has created a welcoming and motivating environment that sets Shred CrossFit apart. His commitment to fostering a positive atmosphere where everyone feels supported and encouraged is evident in every aspect of the gym. The facility is well-maintained, equipped with top-notch gear, and exudes an energy that keeps you coming back for more.

But it's not just about the workouts – it's the sense of community that truly makes Shred CrossFit exceptional. The camaraderie among members is infectious, creating a supportive family-like atmosphere. Whether you're pushing through a tough WOD or celebrating a personal achievement, you can always count on your fellow members to cheer you on.

If you're looking for an incredible workout experience led by outstanding coaches, a passionate owner, and a community that feels like home, look no further than Shred CrossFit! 💪🏋‍♀

The best gym ever. After 6 years here I’ll write a review. I started at SHRED with very little lifting experience but the coaches are so kind, patient, knowledgeable and ready to help. I walked in mostly with a running background and bad knees. I was having a hard time running with my knee pain and was throwing in the towel on distance running which was something that I loved. A few years in I started running the 10k distance and found I didn’t have pain and I was faster! The strength I had gained was drastically making a difference in my running. A few more years in I started moving toward a half marathon distance which was a goal I thought I’d never reach. I ran my first half in the fall of 2022 then proceeded to run 3 more over the next year with no pain! Not only did I run 3 more but I got a 12+ min PR on my half marathon in a year!
The gym not only is an amazing place to build strength, endurance and a healthy lifestyle but you will also find a wonderful support system and family. Thank you!

Shred is outstanding. Whether you are new to fitness or been working out for years, the coaches will make you feel welcome and help you to be your best. Everyone is so friendly and encouraging. The husband and wife ownership team think of every detail to make the gym the best hour of your day.

After having attended Shred for a year, I remain impressed. To have this level of expert coaching, where the coaches are knowledgeable, actively involved in every workout, and truly care about the athletes, is a rarity among gyms. The facilities are well maintained and just what we need. But the most encouraging aspect is the community of which I've become a part. It is a family friendly, health-oriented group of genuinely nice people. I'll be continuing my membership enthusiastically in the upcoming year.

Update: Just hit my 4 year mark. Still enjoying the supportive atmosphere and I'm not dead yet. Lots of new people, and lots of long term members. Come on down and join us!

I’ve been going to this gym for almost 2 years. (Sorry for not reviewing sooner) If you’re new to crossfit, I highly encourage you to try this gym. The community within the gym is amazing. Kind and encouraging people. Crossfit can offer so much to everyone. The coaches here care about you and your health-you will be taught safe body mechanics. I never knew I could be this strong!

I reached out to Shred CrossFit when I was looking for a place to perform the workouts for the 2020 CrossFit Open. I had an opportunity to talk with the owners (Marcus and Jennesa) and they graciously welcomed me into their "home" for the 5 week Open season. The coaches and the members were so welcoming - I felt right at home immediately. What I observed is that though they made sure that I felt welcomed as a guest, that treatment wasn't reserved for guests only but was their normal course of interaction with their members. The coaches encourage, coach, engage and are genuinely "all-in" for CrossFit done right. Shred is a great place and has great people working there who work hard to ensure their members reach their fitness and life goals! Thank you Shred CrossFit!

Shred’s setup is incredible. Each class is well thought out and well planned. It’s challenging but everything is scalable to fit where you are at in your fitness. Shred has built an EXCEPTIONAL team of coaches that are encouraging, fun and very knowledgeable. Shred’s community is tight knit but so welcoming to anyone coming in. I love being a part of Shred and coming in everyday.

It’s an amazing place to work out. Would recommend to any of my friends and neighbors!

I have been a member of SHRED CrossFit for ~1.5 months and couldn’t be happier. The community is friendly, encouraging, and a blend of all ages & backgrounds. Before joining, I thought I was in decent shape but SHRED CrossFit has helped push myself to a whole new level while introducing me to a new philosophy on exercise. Simultaneously, I’m training for a half marathon and SHRED CrossFit has significantly improved my endurance. If you’re hesitant about giving this a chance, don’t be. Take the first step, be willing to learn, trust the process, and you won’t regret it.

This is the place to go! The coaches are top notch and the community is fantastic! I used to go to a generic gym and I found it quite boring and had to try to make myself go consistently. On top of that, once I was there I had a lot of concerns about whether or not I was doing a work out or lift right and wondering what I should really even be doing while there to begin with. At Shred you get the experts to show you how to do lifts and workouts the right way. This takes out the concerns and helps you to make the most progress. With the fun and inviting environment I'm always excited to go!

Highly recommended. Workouts are also conducted in group setting, against the clock, after warmup and skills training, with the encouragement of the class and coaches. Class takes 1 hour and there are enough classes offered daily that I can fit into my schedule. I love the camaraderie and atmosphere at Shred. As a beginner, I modify (read make easier) my workouts. Emphasis is on completing exercises correctly and safely. The strength and speed come with time. Best part is I work harder here than I ever did exercising on my own. I look forward to my workouts and feel like I have accomplished something when I done.

I travel a lot and try to drop into local CF gyms as much as I can. This was by far one of the best drop ins I’ve had. The gym is very large and well equipped. But more importantly the community was friendly and the coaching was top notch! Coach Marcus led us through a thorough warm up, followed by technique guidance for the WOD. He then provided guidance for scaling the WOD in a way that helped me (and others) feel confident to complete the WOD. It was a great workout and I’d definitely drop in at SHRED again!

I have been a member of SHRED for about 6 months now and am absolutely addicted to it. It is my first venture into CrossFit and I feel like I hit the lottery starting here. Since I have joined SHRED, I have dropped in to several other CrossFit "boxes" while traveling and, while the CrossFit community in general has been extremely welcoming and a pleasure to workout with, SHRED definitely has a leg up on other boxes and it all comes back to the coaches.

The coaches make the gym into a family and the make the everyday experience more than "just a workout." I've rarely felt more welcome anywhere and the atmosphere created by the coaches and other members transforms it from an ordinary workout to an experience I look forward to every day.

Shred Crossfit is not just a gym. It is a community of people who band together for the purpose of fitness, health and fun! I have now been attending Shred for 2 1/2 years. My fitness level would not be where it is today without the Shred coaching staff and community. The instruction, warm-ups, programming and events are what keep me excited to come back each and every day. If you are looking for a gym that motivates you to remain accountable to your own health and wellness goals - look no further. Shred Crossfit is the best out there, and they will help you be the best version of yourself. Just show up. You won't regret it.

I highly recomend Shred CrossFit. The coaches are top notch - professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. Safety and proper form are #1 priority. Each class starts with a warmup specific to that day's workout, then the coach leads us through the movements we will be performing. Every workout can be scaled to suit anyone, and the coaches will help you determine the best scale for you. The workouts are challenging, but I always feel that we are well prepared. I look forward to each class because I enjoy learning new skills; becoming stronger, more coordinated, and more flexible; and because the other athletes (no matter what level) are so supportive and fun. If you have ever considered trying CrossFit I urge you to come to Shred - they even offer a 2-week free trial!

Shred is more than CrossFit

Like everyone else, I was extremely scared of the word CrossFit. I attended a “normal” gym and worked out regularly. However, I always knew there was more out there. I joined CrossFit based on a co-worker’s recommendation. The trainers are knowledge and understand the importance of technique. I left my ego at the door and started from the bottom. Coming into the gym and knowing the workout is prepared is the best! You literally just must SHOW UP! After each workout, I know I was better than I was the day before.

CrossFit gets you into shape, Shred makes you an athlete. I DRANK THE KOOL-AID and now I am all in.
