Fantastic experience: Moving to Melbourne and finding the right crossfit gym was very hard because there are so many!! I tried Crossfit CBD and Victoria before visiting Collingwood. I have to say, the head coaches Josh and Renee made me feel like I was part of their community from day 1. The facility is amazing with top of the range equipment which you would not see in many crossfit gyms out there. They take pride in what they are passionate about and take care of the equipment and the facilities really well. In addition to the great community and the facilities at this place, the knowledge that both Josh and Renee have is amazing. I have not met any coaches with as much knowledge as these two (And I've trained and been coached by over 10 coaches in NZ and Australia). I'm very thankful to have joined this community and how they made me so welcome from day 1. Without this gym, my transition into Melbourne might have been a lot different and more difficult. I would recommend anyone in the neighbourhood or visiting crossfitter's to come and check this place out. You will not be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: Joshua and Renee have created an environment that is fun and supportive while still being highly productive and challenging. Every person receives training, advise, and guidance that is tailored to their specific fitness, strength, mobility, or mental level. Sessions clearly analyse the broad requirements of a workout from appropriate stretching and warm-up/down through to specifics about maximising safety and reps. No one is on their own and there is a naturally occurring desire for participants to become friendly, help each other out, and cheer each and every person to the finish line. The centre is extremely clean and all equipment has a neat home to go back to. Scaling for workouts is always pre-considered and so even the terribly unfit can race side-by-side with fitness machines.

Fantastic experience: Being very nervous to start CrossFit, I'm so glad I found CrossFit Collingwood... Now i am completely obsessed with both! Josh and Renee are extremely knowledgeable and through their down to earth coaching it is evident that they are passionate about you achieving your goals. The facilities are top of the range, clean and the whole place is very welcoming. Thanks Josh and Renee for your awesome hard work and making my CrossFit journey so enjoyable!

Fantastic experience: This is an honest review following years of being being in this gym and seeing it evolve throughout time. From an insider perspective, I can tell you off the bat that this gym’s core focus is to improve the health of each and every member within the gym. These coaches don't slack around and are passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves, in health, nutrition and life. I would say that this gym is very much for those who have a solid goal in mind, whether body, fitness or longevity and are ready to commit the effort on a consistent basis. These guys can bring clarity, guidance and motivation. As a gym member, I can say that the gym values health and fitness over hardcore ‘let’s smash it’ workout. Each workout provides for three levels: fitness, performance and competition. If needed, the workout can be scaled or amended to suit particular injuries. The head coach also spends some extensive amount of time building up the programming, which is a yearly program divided into four cycles of 13 weeks that are biased towards a particular focus: gymnastic, powerlifting, Olympic lifting and monostructural. The workout is structured with: - workout intention - general warm up - technique development - metcon - cooldown Workouts never repeat and if you pay attention to the programming, you’ll notice that 1) ‘activated’ muscles on one workout will have a ‘rest day’ the next or two days so you can continue to train and 2) these workouts build up onto each other and are engineered towards intelligent progression. Members of all walks of life and with all kinds of challenges have come through the gym and taken on private coaching to get help, sometimes before joining the classes. Injured members have been able to maintain their dedicated training through amended workouts and exercises. The space is also very clean and has character.

Fantastic experience: Ive been training here for 5+ years. Started when I was in my early 20’s. Never did weight training before in my life. So if you think you have to be fit to start - false. If you think you’ll just rock up and exercise - false. The crew care too much about you to let you be a wall flower. They will support you and educate you to make better health decisions and the community will encourage you to push your limits. I did the one on one intro course - money well spent!!! Additionally, The ox box has the talent for attracting nice people, so if youre shy like I was, you’ve got nothing to worry about.

Fantastic experience: I was over visiting Melbourne for a month and was keen to keep my fitness up while there. I found the Ox Box before I landed as I was keen to give crossfit ago too. I am so glad I found this gym. Not only did they welcome me for the month so kindly but thier training and attitude is suberb. Being so new to specific exercises they were patiant and help guide to be be better. The classes were so much fun - i enjoyed that each one where different. I will be back to this gym next time I am in australia.

Fantastic experience: Love the box, love the coaches, love the community. While there are so many points that I loved about the Ox Box, the most important one is that it appeals to people at every level. Having started as a beginner and worked myself up a little, I have trained alongside savage people and never have I felt lost in any movement thanks to the amazing coaches.

Fantastic experience: Went down there for a complimentary rope climbing session pre-Spartan race, and was super impressed with their enthusiasm and professionalism. The session was offered by Ren because one of us was a member, which was bloody thoughtful, and now I'm thinking of signing up. Thanks, guys! Highly recommend.
