I Love this place. Especially the mentorship, motivation and the Push I get from my Coaches are top notch. They make things from highly impossible to possible always. As a Person I am working out for the first time in my life being 37 years old, I m now proud to say CROSSFIT SURMOUNT is my Happy Place for an hour a day. Coach Marni and Yana are the best for me. Fellow People here are more than a Family. It's the BEST.. Highly Recommend!!!

I’ve been In CrossFit for several years and had the pleasure of working out with a lot of amazing people. CFS has been everything Ive ever needed. Tom, his family & coaches are beyond just great people at a gym. They allow us to be who we are while making us better. I need to be more active in & out of the box with them.

5+ star all the way. The list of great people at Surmount goes on and on but Coaches Tom, Jana, Marni and Jacob are especially top notch. They will work with you through anything from injuries to life events. Their goal is to get you in the gym and keep you coming back to help you achieve your fitness goals. They do whatever it takes! Thanks coaches!

Love the coaching and energy here - and the results can't be argued with! Great open and friendly atmosphere that pushes people in the right ways. Coaches are so supportive and helpful, and the community is amazing. Been a member since 2022.

I've done Crossfit at 3 different gyms and this place has the best atmosphere of the 3. There is a wide range of skill and fitness level, everyone is nice and helpful, the coaches adapt workouts based on experience and ability. I had a broken when I joined (didn't realize it until a few weeks later), as well as an elbow issue because I slipped playing soccer with my kids and the coach customized a workout for me for months while I recovered. Tom is a great owner and cares about the people who come. He knows everyone's name and is a very active owner. I'm very grateful for the health improvements I have seen as I've come consistently and I'm also grateful for the friendships I have made!

I could not be happier at this CrossFit gym. This is my first time ever having done weight training. I’m not a young spring chicken and I was nervous in the beginning. I cannot say enough positive things about Coach Tom the owner, and all the other coaches that have helped me. All of the coaches are extremely knowledgeable and have helped me with safety and form from the very beginning. The coaches are encouraging and I absolutely love the community. I think it truly starts from the top down and Tom the owner has created an environment where everyone supports one another.
I also have participated in a group with the nutrition coaches and have benefited from their pillared approach…it’s not just about working out. Coach Marni has helped me look at my sleep and eating choices from a different perspective and she is helping me reach my nutrition goals.
I’m doing athletic movements that I’ve never done before ever and, because of this environment, I’m encouraged to keep improving. I’ve never lasted this long at an exercise routine by myself and I’m very grateful for THIS particular CrossFit gym. I’m so grateful to have stopped into CrossFit Surmount!

Dropped in for 2 classes. The facilities are excellent, workouts are tough but scalable, and the coaches are extremely knowledgeable. I will be back next time I’m in the area

I started my Crossfit journey in January this year and I feel this was one of my best decisions that I took in 2025. I did not focus much on my strength training and muscle building may be because of lack of knowledge or negligence .. But after joining Crossfit, I really understood the importance of both and how it makes a major difference in your life long term or may it be in your everyday routine. I am specifically saying this because my body had started taking a toll after my second pregnancy and in this four months, I could really see how I could slowly get back on track and becoming stronger than ever before.
In Crossfit, The equipments, Cleanliness, The staff and The program everything is “Amazing”.
The best part is, it’s not a routine workout, every day it’s something new that we try .. The program helps strengthening different muscles and the workout becomes more fun and challenging .I have been training under coach Jana most of the time and she is one of the best coaches here . She makes sure that each one of us has a good technique and modifies the workout according to different individuals ability.
I was also under the guidance of Jana for a nutrition and wellness challenge, and I was amazed with the knowledge that I gained from her regarding my food intake and other nutritional facts. How to have a high protein, calorie deficit food and understanding more about the ingredients in each store picked items.I was able to successfully lose good number on scale in this four weeks.
I would really recommend Crossfit to anyone who is looking for a life changer..

Joining CrossFit Surmount has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health and overall well being. While the workouts have definitely pushed me and helped me build strength and endurance, what’s truly made a difference is the nutrition program they offer. I’ve lost weight, dropped several inches, and, most importantly, I feel better overall—more energy, better sleep, and faster recovery.
I’ve tried to clean up my eating in the past, but the guidance and accountability I’ve received here have made it stick. Jana took time to understand my goals, helped me develop a sustainable plan, and checked in regularly. I never felt like I was doing it alone. I can’t thank her enough for guiding me through it.
Combining the workouts with the nutrition program has truly accelerated my progress. I’m stronger, leaner, and more confident than I’ve felt in a long time. Highly recommend CFS if you’re ready to invest in yourself and see real change.

Dropped in from out of town and couldn’t have enjoyed it more. The owner, coach, and clientele could not have been friendlier, the workout was challenging, and the equipment and space were great. Great atmosphere and vibes, highly recommend!

I have been a gym rat for 20yrs (cardio, lifting, classes). I do not live around Apex and have never been to a CrossFit gym. I dropped in today with a friend and it was an amazing experience. Jana really is one of the best coaches/instructors that I’ve ever had. Safety and technique are emphasized as much as effort. The group makes you feel welcome and you can push yourself as hard as you want. If I lived here I would be going here and would recommend it to anyone.

Great gym! I've been to multiple other Crossfit gyms and this one is by far my favorite.
Coaching, culture, friendliness, intelligent programming, warmups, stretches, and coaches who help you get better with clear, focused feedback.

It’s been nearly a year since I’ve joined CrossFit Surmount. I moved from out of state and was healing from back surgery and weight gain when I joined. I was nowhere near where I used to be fitness wise and at first, was a bit intimidated. Very quickly, the intimation left and I really that I was now a part of an amazing community that would become my friends and cheerleaders. I also signed up for coaching with Marni Ash. Marni and I did not focus on my weight but rather, my sleep, stress and nutrition. Marni was a life saver to me. She helped me get back to where I was as a person. It took a few months to get those sorted and slowly, the weight dropped. I am very close to where I was fitness wise prior to my back surgery and even though I deal with chronic back pain the coaches meet me where I am that day and know how to push me in a positive way to get results. My hour of CrossFit is the highlight of my day. I am very grateful I found CrossFit Surmount and look forward to continuing to grow strong and push myself to do things I never thought I could do.
