I had dropped into this gym during a work trip and the staff and members were very welcoming and really enjoyed it. Mick is a great coach, knows his stuff, very informative with his teaching. Definitely recommend you stop by.

Dropped in at this gym while on business in Scottsdale. Easy to find, even at 5:30 in the morning. The gyms size is impressive & it was easy to sign up. The 5:30 am class was not crowded and the workout was easy to understand. It was posted the day before on social media so you knew what to expect. Coach Kyle was welcoming to me & was straightforward in his explanations of the workout. He was well prepared with a good warmup prior to our workout and even had our boxes already out for the box jumps. The workout was challenging & fun. Overall, a great experience at this gym & we did end it with a group huddle before leaving which was a nice touch. A great gym to drop in to if you’re in Scottsdale!

It was my first time doing CrossFit in Arizona and the staff and other trainees were so welcoming and kind. James, Mick and Sam are incredible coaches as they pay attention to form while also encouraging us to push outside our comfort zone and achieve our fitness goals. Regardless of your fitness level, I highly recommend Hammer CrossFit if you are visiting or looking for a new gym to call home.

**Disgusting!! They do not wipe down the barbells after class, the place smells badly, and overall is not clean. I tried this place with a free week pass. After the first class the owner reached out to me to ask how the class was. When I told him about the lack of cleanliness, he said the Tempe location isn’t clean either and he specifically said he wanted to end the conversation - meaning a decent level of cleanliness is not a priority.To be clear: the comment about Tempe is based on the owner’s direct statement. And based on me telling him they didn’t wipe down barbells, he banned me from the gym.

I have been doing F45 for about four months, and I love it. However, I wanted to add something new and challenge myself in a way I hadn’t before. I had always wanted to try CrossFit and was impressed by the athletes. But I never quite imagined myself capable of doing it to its fullest. Now just felt like it was the best time to jump in and go for it. After researching local boxes, I found Hammer CrossFit, and I’m glad I did. I worked with Tariq, who was so warm and inviting that any anxiety I had previously, subsided. I started with a seven-day trial, and I found the rest of the community and coaches to be just as warm and inviting.If you are brand new to CrossFit like I am, I highly recommend going through the on-ramp process. It’s essentially personal training working with a coach for an hour for five days on all the foundational movements in CrossFit. I found it immensely beneficial! I worked with Tariq, and he helped me gain the confidence to do many of these movements, most I had never done before. There is a separate fee, but it’s well worth your investment.Bottom line, I recommend Hammer CrossFit to anyone- either just trying CrossFit for the first time or a seasoned CrossFit athlete.

My husband and I love Hammer… it’s like family and Micheal is one of my favorite coaches. He’s motivating, encouraging, knowledgeable and friendly. It’s been a long road getting back postpartum but he’s given me good scaling options, if I need them.

Love this gym. Been going here for 2 years and getting better than I was yesterday.Today Tariq did a great job of showing us the tips to good form and helping get through the components of the workout!

The gym was very welcoming for me as a drop-in! The coach, Michael, was friendly and structured the warmup well to prep me for the workout. The gym had all of the equipment you need and is spaced out well. Great spot with a great vibe! I highly recommend.

Mike always has thorough warm ups, is encouraging, and positive. He pushes all members equally and has good suggestions for scaling down or modifying. Mike is my favorite coach.

I have been doing CrossFit for 2 years and have tried a few boxes during that time. At Hammer East I was immediately met with respect, professionalism, authenticity and maturity. There is a culture of supportive competitiveness and inclusion. I would recommend to anyone at any skill level from beginner to Madison-bound professional. Well done!

James and the Hammer CrossFit team are amazing! Being brand new to CF they’ve been extremely welcoming, helpful, and encouraging. I look forward to my daily workouts with my new community of CF friends and can’t wait to see how the baby muscles continue to grow. ??????

Coach Ellis welcomed me when I was visiting on vacation (Scottsdale). Just a quick text to register as a drop in. The facility is large and designed well with ample equipment. Programming was well balanced and easily modified. Solid coaching and guidance through class. I would highly recommend Hammer CrossFit (East)

I was looking for nicer gyms in the Valley to start exercising as part of my daily routine, and Hammer stood out from the bunch with its community despite I had never done CrossFit before. Coaches are top notch, genuine & caring. With their guidance, I quickly picked up and started to enjoy the the quite demanding workouts. Community is the best part, I feel way more accountable on my workout & overall wellness. Won’t disappoint!
