CrossFit Central Downtown - Austin, Texas

I made a short trip to Austin and decided to drop in to a class and had a great time! The coaches were encouraging and had great energy. The members were also kind and welcoming! If you’re local to Austin and are looking for a gym or are traveling through and want to get in a good sweat, CrossFit Central is the place to be!!

I loved my experience at CrossFit Central Downtown. I was dropping in from out of town. Great community, Chris, the coach, was fantastic! He not only used my name 3-4 times in a class of 20+ people but he also knows his stuff from a technical perspective. He did a great job running the class. Got us warmed up, explained the work well and got us out on time. Thank you! Love it! I’ll be back when I’m here next time.

Chris and Will were coaching this morning, great dudes! Class was great, community and atmosphere was awesome to be a part of. Can’t for the next couple workouts while I’m in Austin!

This was my 7th time dropping into a class at CrossFit Central, and every time I travel to Austin, it’s the first thing I book. I literally count the hours until I get to attend class! The community is welcoming, the staff is kind, and there’s always a few other drop-ins too, which makes it feel even more inclusive.

Do yourself a favor and book a class you won’t regret it. Just one session can change your life, especially if you get the chance to be coached by Jeremy Thiel. Highly recommend!

I love this gym—Coach Will’s great. I really appreciate his level of attentiveness and willingness to help correct the form in my movements; specifically when it comes to Olympic lifts like the clean, where I’ve experienced injuries before. Not only that, but his demeanor is super friendly and approachable, so I always look forward to classes where he’s coaching.

Pretty mediocre overall.
-couldn’t find the schedule online until I paid a drop in
-hardly any warmup for a 4x4 back squat at 80%, so as to cram in a 20 min metcon
-not much teaching or demoing by coach
-no seeing or correcting movement by coach
-assault chains were lose and slapping on the chain guard
-rower seat bearing and copper bearing on handle had left the building
-open gym athlete snipped a pretty critical cardio piece for the met-con to do a low-effort warmup row in the middle of class

Overall, one of the most unideal crossfit operations I’ve dropped into. It seems like not much care or effort is put into the programming, coaching, or equipment maintenance.

I was going to carry on and not write a review but they asked me too 🤷🏼‍♀️

Coach Eva is the best! She encourages me every day inside and outside of CrossFit. She always helps me make plans to strategize daunting workouts, which is incredibly helpful. It’s clear that she cares about her athletes, and wants them to grow in all aspects of life. She reaches out and follows through with her commitments, and always encourages community, kindness, and growth in the gym.

My husband has been trying to get me to join CrossFit for years. It wasn't until I did a workout at CrossFit Central that I finally decided to commit.

I always enjoy my workouts with Chris. He's incredibly knowledgeable! He's also always very attentive, which is a big one for me. Being new, I need more help than others, and Chris does a nice job of sharing his attention, giving corrections and modifications so I can get the most out of my workout. He trusts that I know my limits, and never pressures me to use more weight.
