I attended a drop in class while visiting Buffalo for work. I had fun, the coach was welcoming and gave great feedback. The gym is spacious and has breaks between classes.

I'm new to CrossFit and joined Harborside at the recommendation of one of their coaches. As a lifelong athlete, I had assumed CrossFit would be something that I could pick up easily. I definitely underestimated the technical and gymnastic aspects of the sport. The coaches at HSCF walk the talk - a focus on safety, personal challenge at whatever your level, and a bent towards improvement and competition, I've really enjoyed the experience. If CrossFit is something that intimidates your or seems too cult-ish to join, I'd encourage you to checkout Harborside. Their professionalism and personalities help support their fitness community at the gym, as well as with other gyms around the area. Their on-ramp program helps provide the background and instruction needed to jump into regular workouts. And the other members (some VERY experienced) are friendly and helpful to point you in the right direction if you forget an acronym or lose your place in a workout. Really enjoying my time with Harborside!

I have been dropping into Harborside CF for a couple years now when I travel to the Western NY area, which is typically about 2-3 times per year. This is an excellent box and one that I would highly recommend checking out. The coaches are extremely welcoming, knowledgable, and professional and have built a great community at Harborside. I've always felt welcomed in this box and really enjoy the Saturday partner WODs.

People often ask me how it is I have developed the physique that I have. I normally just smile and brush it off with an, "Oh you", but my secret is daily sleeves of Oreo cookies and Ritz crackers with lots of canned Cheez Whiz layered up generously on top (dedication). In an effort to balance out my ridiculous life choices with my desire to live to be 150, and continue to make such bad choices, I joined the Harborside CrossFit gym. As with most CrossFit gyms, the monthly price is steep at $150 (there are some discounts offered, such as for students, emergency responders, etc.). CrossFit, of course, is a name brand and it costs big bucks for name brands (I'm talking about you Q-Tips, Rollerblades). A lot of other gyms not affiliated with the vaunted CrossFit brand can get you in and sweaty for a lot less money, however, these other gyms aren't the same caliber as Harborside CrossFit. The kicker with this gym are the coaches. There are extraordinary coaches at this gym, specifically Jeff and Lindsay, whom I've spent the bulk of my time with. In addition to the fantastic tutelage they provide, they also act as personal trainers & nutritionalists, which would likely cost a lot more than $150 a month. Aside from being a workout savant whose opinions you trust because he obviously knows what he's talking about, Jeff flaunts a natural-born teaching instinct, and manner of delivering knowledge to his pupils uncanny to most, I suspect, in his field. He could put on a clinic for "How to field dress a three-day-old road killed skunk for consumption", and somehow he'd fill that class up with eager learners willing to put skunk on the menu, unbeknownst to their mouths, stomachs and colons, which would all be angry with them when they found out. And then there's Lindsay.... Her abilities far exceed the normal expectations of the human body. Not to mention, she NEVER eats Ritz crackers coated in cheese (I know, right?!) In fact, I'm convinced she's some kind of superhuman being, sent to our planet to gets us all into shape and/or save our very existence --as long as no one pelts her with kryptonite, of course-- and she does so with the coolest demeanor. She makes you realize just how selfish of a son-of-a-B that Clark Kent was, writing fake news and chasing tail at the Dailey Planet like a j**** I can't guarantee you that you'll find the classes at Harborside CrossFit well suited for you, at least not at first. However, that's the whole point if you truly want to improve yourself and your fitness. Put yourself outside of your comfort zone, put the ice cream sandwiches down and slowly back away... then burpee yourself until you vomit (dedication).

I dropped in at Harborside last week while visiting family, and I have to say, the crew here does it right. HSCF has great coaching, a welcoming community and a very cool space. Going forward, this will be the only CrossFit gym that I drop into in Buffalo. Thanks again to Josh, Jeff, Lindsey and Ashley for having me in last week!

First class...amazing. I can appreciate proper form over repetition. Without proper form, what does the rest matter?! Josh was phenomenal. I shouldn't have waited over a year to join...I've been missing out but looking forward to growing in so many ways...mentally, physically, emotionally, healthy...I think I found my new calling. Thank you for having me!!
