The hype about this gym is on point. I read all the reviews before signing up in January. Seeing is believing as they say, and I can tell you the reviews paint an accurate picture of what to expect at Kingston Athletics (KA).I came to KA after gaining 50 lbs... I'm in my mid 40s and took a break from the gym for a few years. I'm not gonna lie, I was apprehensive at first. Is crossfit a good way to get back in shape? Can I get through a work out? What if I can't do a pull up anymore? Etc...But I read the reviews and thought it was worth a shot. I decided I had enough of a break.From the very first work out(foundations), KA lived up to the reviews. The first six workouts are a 1 on 1 with with a certified coach. They break down the movements, show you how to perform the exercise, and make suggestions on form all in an encouraging and uplifting way. This was a great introduction to the crossfit experience!Then come the classes. This is when you get to experience what the reviews rave about, the community and coaching staff! As someone who used to have a regular gym routine, I am impressed with how varied and challenging the work outs are. I know that it would be a struggle to find this kind of variety on my own. Despite my best intentions, I've never been able to vary my workouts. At KA, all you have to is come! The variety is baked into the program.On top of that, you get to experience community that share your fitness goals. They will challenge you, celebrate your successes with you, and commiserate with you after the work out leaves you totally spent. Work out partners really elevate the gym experience, whether you do crossfit or choose a more traditional gym. And that's what you get at Kingston Athletics (KA).In fact, at today's workout I was encouraged and pushed to finish a pretty intense work out. Now if I tried to do that work out on my own, I know I would have tapped out. Not at KA! Everyone here basks in the successes of the group. It's better than having a work out partner, it's a fitness community.But there's more! With the KA you get the crossfit apps that track your progress. Not gonna lie, I didn't use it at first but I ended up giving it a try. Now I use it all the time. With the app you get to track your progress which really helps to set benchmarks and goals for yourself. I don't just go to the gym anymore. With the app I set my goals for each work out and get to see how far I've come.After just a few months, I'm seeing the results I'm looking for, proving to me I made the right decision about signing up. So between the challenging and varied workouts, the community of coaches and members that share your goals, and the apps that allow you to track your progress, this gym is where you want to be!In closing, KA has improved my fitness in just a couple of months! I highly recommend Kingston Athletics. Give it a try to see what all the hype is about.
