Love this place! The coaches are so nice and they make the workouts fun. The space is perfect for the gym too, big enough to hold class and even a semi private area when running is scheduled. If you are in the area and looking for a place to drop in, this is the spot! Scott, the owner is a nice to work with too; really friendly and helpful.

Crossfit Des Plaines is a great gym! They offer both crossfit and hyrox workouts/ programming! The space is huge! I loved that they had 2 air runners and lots of ski ergs! Of course they are fully equipped with all the equipment you needed! The coach and community was awesome and the music was great! Highly recommend dropping in!! Thank you CF DP!

Been attending a little over a month. I was welcomed by everyone and didn't feel out of place even though I didn't know what I was doing. The classes offer me modifications as I get stronger. Love it here! Coaches teach and push me to be better everyday

Amazing gym in Des Plaines, IL. From my first class I felt welcomed and comfortable not having a CrossFit background. The trainers and other clients are all really nice and helpful. This gym has a great mix of age ranges and men and women which is a plus. In just 3 months I've seen incredible results and met some great people.

I definitely would never imagine myself doing high intensity training, much less something like crossfit LOL. If there is a better place, I wouldn't know either, but for sure I can say I enjoy going to Crossfit Des Plaines. Great community, coaches, equipment, encouragement... do you need anything else?
If you're unsure, give it a try, I have plenty of confidence you'll like it 😉

Started CrossFit for the first time with CrossFit Des Plaines and it has been completely worth it. Carl has been a great coach, ensuring I am learning proper technique and progressing. There are a lot of classes to fit with varying schedules. The community is really friendly. The location is convenient.

Go here!! Great classes, awesome community! I cannot say enough about CrossFit Des Plaines. I dropped in while I was traveling and ended up joining for 2 weeks while I was in town! I didn’t want to leave! I’ve been doing CrossFit since 2009, visited many gyms and THIS GYM is everything great about CrossFit- the coaches, the programming, the community- all very welcoming to all people and all levels. Whether you’re visiting or joining, as an experienced athlete or just starting out, this gym is it!
The gym is family and beginner friendly. I’ve seen moms bring their little ones to hang out while they workout and newcomers be carefully instructed during group classes. This is a place you can get moving and have fun doing it!
Classes start and end on time so you’ll be in and out in an hour (but are never rushed out if you want to stick around). The 4:30pm class has a competitive edge and you can usually find members working on stuff after class or doing another workout if you want to do extra. The programming is top notch. The owner, Scott, does a great job at bringing together all kinds of exercises so that you progress nicely. It’s like getting personal training programming with the fun of working out in a group.
The coaches are amazing and care about the members. Carl’s classes whether in the morning or afternoon are filled with great energy! Jay and Mary are so welcoming and inclusive, and Maggie’s attention to detail and technique make you feel well taken care of here.
And always a plus—the gym and equipment are very well maintained.
Go here! :)

Dropped in today for the first time at CrossFit Des Plaines with my 5:15pm crew from Get Fit EGV | CrossFit Elk Grove Village and I will tell you that this place will definitely be a home away from home for me personally as I get back into training again. Unfortunately, I had to close the doors over the holidays at Get Fit, but Scott the owner was so welcoming to my members and Coach Molly was great at meeting everyone where they were today for the workout. They even have an over 50's class! LOVE THIS. This is a solid community and one of the better CrossFit gyms in the area I would have to say from my personal experiences with the gyms around Elk Grove Village, Des Plaines, Arlington Heights, Itasca, Roselle and even in Schaumburg. Thank you CFPD! Looking forward to 2024 <3

Dropped in over Christmas for a week when visiting from London and was a fantastic experience. Came to open gym for a week and got to use all top class equipment for weightlifting and also Hyrox training. Scott (CFDP owner) was super accommodating and incredibly friendly. Loved training here and already looking forward to the next visit to Des Plaines :)
