On a scale of cotton candy to Brussels sprouts, CrossFit South Hills is a slow-cooked beef brisket. This type of deliciousness requires time and investment, but the payoff in flavor is 100% worth it. My sister started doing CrossFit in North Carolina, and I had the chance to try it a few times there. And then, I began to see the strength she was gaining from attending 3x/week. I wanted in. I checked around for CrossFit gyms near me, and I creeped on CrossFit South Hills on Instagram for months before finally signing up for the On-Ramp intro session. The On-Ramp one-on-one coaching sessions work on technique and gym terminology and are so helpful. Originally, I signed up for 6 months. I've now been attending CFSH for over 3 years, and I love how strong I am. I also love that I can just show up, and there's a workout already prepared for me. The CFSH community is also great because everyone takes the time to cheer for one another. Coaches are also accommodating for injuries, offering modifications and other options if you can't do a movement. This helps to make sure that you can continue to grow stronger while healing. The gym might be hard to find at first since it's tucked away off the train tracks with a bunch of other warehouses. There's plenty of parking. Inside the gym, there are cubbyholes for your stuff and a child play area if you have kids. Pro Tip: Bring water and clothing you're okay getting a bit dirty

This place has the most amazing staff and CrossFit gym goers anyone could ask for in a gym! Even if you are a beginner or experienced CrossFitter—everyone is supportive and encouraging of you goals and growth! The community the owners have built is beyond my expectations.

Supportive coaches and members. They want you to succeed and get to your goals. After trying other local CF gyms, the importance of good form has become so apparent after working out here for a few months. I’m stronger and able to do more than before. All of the coaches are attentive and provide great feedback on each and every movement. Great warm up protocols make the WOD easier and safer to perform.

CFSH is the absolute BEST! Having been a dancer growing up, lifting weights was very knew to me, but the coaches and other members at CFSH made me feel comfortable from the start. Lifting weights at other gyms often felt intimidating as a female, but not here. And NO...you do not need to look like a bodybuilder or fitness model to get started! Coaches will modify things to meet you where you are at, while still challenging you. I also highly recommend the nutrition coaching for anyone who needs help in this area! I had been on EVERY diet 30, as so many woman have, and coach Nicole helped me to find balance and sustainability in what I eat. I was under eating and have seen physical gains while actually eating more! Nicole helped me to set goals and turn those goals into habits very gradually so that I wasn't overwhelmed. She checked in regularly to see how I was feeling and to hold me accountable.So...like I said, CFSH is the absolute BEST!

I moved out of Pittsburgh in July and was trying to find a CrossFit gym that was within a reasonable distance to Monongahela. I found this gym that was in Finleyville. I thought it was great because it was only about a 15 minute drive from me. I wanted to start doing classes as soon as possible I was in contact with this gym in August and my contract started in September. I signed up for a six month contract which was 130 dollars for only three classes. The other CrossFit gym I attended was 130 for unlimited classes. So I already was on the fence about this gym with it being so much more expensive. I joined anyways since it was close to me. So I was only allowed 3 classes a week and if I signed up for the class and didn't go it counted as one of my classes but you had to cancel more than a hour before the class if you had to cancel or you were locked in. Which I understand that there are only so many spots in the classes but I rarely saw the classes filled. They didn't have many class times that I was personally able to make it to. My old gym had classes and open gym at noon which was nice for people who worked odd shifts like me. This gym didn't open at those time the last class is at 9am then the next class is at 430 pm or something along those lines. By the end of my contract I was under the impression that my classes ended in January since I did take classes in August so I did not attend any classes in February. They didn't charge me until September which was my own misunderstanding and I am not holding them accountable for it but I did not attend any classes thinking my contract was over which sucks on my end. They also charged me for March which they shouldn't of and I contacted the owner and she refunded me and I brought up that I didn't attend any classes in February not knowing I was still a member and it was basically a loss for me and a gain for them. Then the owner asked if I wanted to continue going to their gym. There was no customer service involved in the discussion between me and the owner I do not want to stay at a gym or with a business that is charging cards after their contracts are over. Also the other gym I went to had a military discount and a student discount this one does not. There is not many options for class times and there is no customer service involved in they way their business is run. They don't have enough equipment for the classes there were multiple times when my cousin and I would be scrambling to get a wall ball that was a certain weight since they only had two that weight. The classes themselves weren't as weightlifting focused as other CrossFit gyms I went to sometimes I felt like I didn't really get much of a workout in at their classes. I am giving this gym three stars because of all of the above I am not giving them three stars for me not going to classes in February (that was my fault) but I do feel as though it could of been handled in a different way and I may of continued going to classes at this gym for the simple fact it's close to me if there was any amounting decent customer service given to me when I contacted the owner.

CrossFit South Hills is my home away from home! All the coaches are very knowledgeable and the owners create a program that anyone can do. The workouts are scalable to anyone. You don't have to be an avid CrossFit athlete to join. Everyone here is welcoming and friendly! I completely recommend CFSH if you are considering trying CrossFit and need a great environment.

Have been a member of CFSH for almost 2 years...The coaches are great. Can always leave a class having gotten feedback on my performance - both positive and constructive. If you enjoy challenging yourself and being surrounded by a group of tenacious individuals, you will love being a member here!

Great community and great coaches. They are all very knowledgable, but don't overwhelm you with too much information. They always have options for any fitness level to do the workouts and as you get fitter they give you the tips to do the harder versions.

Love this place. The classes are challenging, the members are the nicest people I've ever met and the atmosphere is amazing. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I was a cross fit newbie and had no idea what it even was when I signed up just to try it and see if it was for me. After my first class I was addicted.

My box forever! Variety of class times, special events for the whole family and girls nights, great space for exercising in general. Even though I've been working out for years, taking CrossFit with the knowledgeable coaches and awesome classmates has gotten me into the best shape of my life, in my 30's. Now i'm navigating my first pregnancy there with lots of love & support, in hopes of keeping me and baby as healthy as possible! Never plan on belonging anywhere else â¤ï¸
