The Box Portsmouth / CrossFit Portsea Island -
Adam Wright Fantastic Gym with great coaches and community.
I came to this gym after moving to Portsmouth on my working placement year between University and thought I would try something new to the regular gym which I am used to. This ended up being a quality choice.
After having the 1 to 1 beginner session with Carl to take me through all of the CrossFit lifts to ensure I was able to do them correctly and safely, I felt involved in the gyms community straight away.
Every coach is super friendly and knowledgeable on everything CrossFit! They are there to answer every question you have and ensure you are moving yourself and the weights safely and importantly - pushing yourself!
I thoroughly enjoyed the summer beach CrossFit sessions that the gym offers as it’s an excuse to get a tan while working out! I also really enjoyed the gym individual and team competitions - an opportunity to really push yourself and see where you have improved.
After moving to Portsmouth by myself, I didn’t know many people in the area, so having this community of friendly fitness fanatics who were up for pushing each other and also having a laugh really helped me out and I’m very appreciative of that.
Well done Carl and Claire for what you do at this gym as it’s a really quality place. I wish this gym was in my home town where I live in Essex!
