"This place is so cool. Most Crossfit gyms only are open during class times. This did not work for me. Open gym all day is a big bonus. I love the full blown weight room. This helps me keep my size, and adds variety to every work out." Adam

"It's such an honor and pleasure to be a part of the Flex CrossFit community!  The people, coaches and programming are top notch.  It's, however, the encouragement on a daily basis that gets me through each WOD the best I can.  1 year cross fit member", Lida

"Flex Gym changed my life. After the death of my father, I knew I needed a change. The team at Flex team is amazing! All ages, shapes, and type workout here. It's like the "Cheers" in the gym business.
