Kalos Sthenos Fitness has become an integral part of my daily routine. I have been working out at KSF for over 4 years now. Coach John is exceptional with his daily and weekly WOD’s (workout of the day). I am super dedicated and diligent to coming in and working out. Coach John, and my other workout buddies, help make me want to push myself to attend at least 5x a week, if not six. Not only do I look and feel better, but it definitely gets my day off to a great start. If I don’t do my morning workout, I feel like I am missing something! A healthy start to your day makes for a better day all around. –Cindy S.

The coaches are knowledgeable, professional and look out for their members best interest.I also appreciate that they have a diverse group from kids groups to senior. If you’re looking for a nice gym and great community this is the one.

Joined 1 year ago so Happy Anniversary to us! It's been a crazy time this year with COVID but this gym thinks of us and our safety. They have had zoom classes, outdoor classes, personal training, and space in between all the members working out there. We definitely have felt safe at home there. We are in our early 50's and have been a regular member at a well known gym for years but needed a change for more personal regimen. John, the owner, has been working with us and making workouts that accommodate us. When he is not there his trainer, Lauren has given us the same workouts, but with a bit of change which has been nice to get different teachings. They both are so personable and know their stuff! My wife and I have been having fun scheduling and even wanting to go to the workouts sometimes 6 days a week, but at least 4 days. They change the work outs and explain everything so it's a new WOD everyday. We both have shed lbs since joining and was a plus besides getting into shape. After 1 year, we are so happy joining and it's like having a personal trainer that is always checking up on us and even contacts us when he doesn't see us for a few days. We have met some good people there also who feel the same way we do. With the personal trading from John and Lauren, the pre scheduled WOD's, the open Dailey gym times, early mornings and early evenings classes, we have had easy access, attained personal goals, and been in the best shape in so many in years! So Blessed we made this decision to join with Kalos Stenos and wished we would have started sooner with them.

For nearly 20 years I did bodybuilding in a standard gym and overtime I began to find myself getting board of doing the same exercises week- after-week and eventually loosing gains. I had heard of crossfit, but never tried it because I heard it was bad on your joints plus I didnt want to loose muscle mass because of the intense cardio involved. A buddy of mine who is in the Army, recommend Crossfit Kalos Sthenos to just try once, so reluctantly I did. After meeting Coach John who is hands-down one of the most informed practioners of his sport I have ever met and the community and comraderie that this gym provides is everything I could have ever wanted and more in a gym. Not only have I gotten better gains and higher 1RM then I have ever gotten in a standard gym, my cardiovascular endurance is through the roof. No two workouts are ever the same. My joints dont hurt and I feel like I am in the best shape of my life and I owe it to John and all the people at Kalos Sthenos.

My fiancé and I started going to this gym during a 6 Week Challenge we joined. We were both super nervous about joining a CrossFit box because there is a lot to be said about bad CrossFit boxes and experiences. I can't tell you how incredible this box really is. The coaches are fantastic, John, Cheryl and Lauren are like family. When I don't come in and workout I get a message from someone on the team either asking if I'm ok or sending me a "CrossFit alarm". This box truly cares about YOUR health and fitness. This isn't just a CrossFit gym, it's a family, from the members to the coaches, I love everyone. While there is personal growth and goals I've never felt like anyone was competing with me or throwing their fitness around. We are all working toward our own goals and the coaches support that. I will forever be a part of this box and miss it when I can't get in. Do your research should you want to join a gym, and then join this one lol.

Great Crossfit gym with wonderful coaches and members. I emailed coach Josh the night before I wanted to drop-in for Murph, and he emailed me back promptly with the information I needed. He was extremely friendly in person as well, and several members introduced themselves to me while I was there. This gym definitely has a family feel! There seemed to be athletes at all levels of fitness, and the overall vibe was very positive. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in town.

CrossFit Kalos Sthenos has changed my life. I've lost 50 pounds and I'm approaching the same weight as I was after high school although I'm looking a lot more muscular now. Can't recommend this place enough. I'm achieving goals I never thought were possible.

I have been doing CrossFit off and on for almost 5 years. I have traveled through out CA and been able to work out at various CF locations, but not one location can compare with this box! The coach is very knowledgeable about everything health related. He knows when to push you but also listens to you if you have pre existing conditions or generally feel wrecked from the workouts that week. He will modify any movement so you can still obtain your goals while also getting in a great workout. When I came back to this gym in Aug 2018, I was 4 months post-partum from my second child, had low back issues, and difficulty running (my knee gave out). Within a few months of listening to the coach's suggestions regarding exercises, those problems completely resolved. In addition, i quickly met all of my short term goals which included: having more energy and not needing an afternoon nap to function effectively in life between being a stay at home mom and working 4 per diem jobs. Of course, there is the added bonus of losing 20lbs and dropping clothing sizes. If your looking for the whole package in a gym, i highly recommend this one. You likely will not get the experience this gym has to offer you anywhere else.

Thank you to Coach John, Coach Cheryl and Coach Lauren for the guidance with my nutrition, motivation and helping me stay on track... You are givers to us all #crossfitkalossthenos #crossfit #fountainofyouth The coaches here are very knowledgeable and work with people of all ages training to be our best regardless of your current situation. People come with no experience and are doing amazing workouts in a short time. I joined the box (gym) about two months ago for a 6 week challenge and it changed my life. Since then I've lost several inches and 6#'s, all body fat. My stamina and overall fitness has improved in a very short time and I'm amazed at how much better I feel. I'm in my 50's and in better health than I was back in my 30's. My recent doctor visit was the real proof. As we reviewed all my stats they couldn't believe how much healthier I am now than I was at my last visit. They said another doctor reading my chart would think I'd been taking cholesterol medications. I no longer have joint pain or inflammation either. I've since joined Kalos Sthenos and have made a commitment to myself to keep going.

Joining CrossFit Kalos Sthenos changed everything for me. Since I joined in July (about 6 months ago) I've lost over 50 pounds and I find myself doing things like toes-to-bar, handstands, and pull-ups that I wouldn't have attempted in my wildest dreams. The programming is fun and engaging. It can be both motivating and humbling at the same time because one day you may be hitting areas which are your strengths at and the next day you may be working on improving areas of weaknesses. My favorite aspect of CrossFit Kalos Sthenos is the sense of community. Everyone I've met here is at a different spot in their fitness journey, but they are still supportive of each other and its really motivating.
