I love the camaraderie and the encouragement of all the members in the gym, both men and women. The coaches really take their time to get to know each individual’s strengths and weaknesses and push you just far enough. There’s nothing like hearing “add more weight to the bar” from Coach Brian and receiving that smile from him when I accomplish a new PR on a lift. I am also becoming a “cool mom” and role model for my kids. My 6-year old daughter said to me, “That was cool mom when you did those handstands. I didn’t know you could do that.” Or when she sees the calluses on my hands and realizes that mom can swing from the monkey bars too (pull up bars in my case). Thank you CrossFit Flood and all of the members that continue to push me forward!

Before I joined CrossFit Flood in the summer of 2012, I was a member of 24 Hour Fitness. All I cared about was lifting weights and getting bigger. When I first started CrossFit, I was afraid of getting weaker since many of the workouts are so cardio heavy. Not only did I get stronger, I also increased my cardiovascular endurance substantially.

I was once that girl that would hide in the corner of the gym and do my short cardio session super early so not one would see me because i didnt want to be made fun of.. BUT NOW I am unstoppable,committed, proud and motivated all thanks to my family at Crossfit Flood!! This place and my new love for CROSSFIT changed my LIFE COMPLETELY! I found more that what I expected here at flood! I found community,support, dedication and genuine coaches and people who really want to see each other meet our goals! I was so scared to join CrossFit with 0 experience and being overweight, however, that fear went away after the first day of coming here! It’s never too late to make positive changes in your life, whether you are ready or not, Flood will make you feel like you have it all together!! •Joined July 5, 2017

I drive by at least 8 other CrossFit gyms to get to this one, because of the people. This isn’t one of those competitors only gyms, where if you’re not at the next CrossFit games, you aren’t a priority. Flood is far from that; the coaches want you to be the best you can be. If that means doing body weight work when the prescribed weight is 115, then that’s what you’re doing. The other members are just as encouraging, no matter what level you’re working at. Everyone is supportive and motivates you to do your very best. There are class times to fit everyone’s schedule and unlike other gyms; people plan to do things together on the weekends. Weekend volleyball games, hikes, or even a holiday party; you’re not just joining a gym, you’re joining the Flood family.

This place is awesome. I didn't even know what CrossFit was and I came in for a free week and have never left! 9 months later here I am reaching goals I never thought I could reach!! The coaches and people who workout here are so supportive! Thanks for such an awesome atmosphere!

Excellent kids CrossFit classes on the weekends! Mike is patient and makes the class fun for the kids. My kids are sweaty and happy when they leave class. Both of my kids are not interested in sports so I'm happy that they found a physical activity they love. I think Mike is a big reason why my kids are enjoying their introduction to CrossFit. He's a great teacher! Does a good job explaining movements, and I'm impressed at how well he keeps the kids interest and focus!

Crossfit Flood delivers the quintessential Crossfit experience – great programming that scales for all fitness levels, encouraging coaches, and a welcoming community. Flood is a judgment and ego-free zone that is perfect for entry-level and experienced crossfitters alike. Stop thinking about it and join already! You won’t regret it.

I've always said the hardest part is walking in the door, especially for the first time. If you've been thinking about trying CrossFit but feel intimidated or think you need to be in better shape before you start, just come in. The coaches are amazing and will scale any workout to meet your current ability. The other members will welcome you and cheer you on. If you've been in CrossFit for a while and looking for a new box, this is the place. I've been part of a few different gyms and this one is it. Coach Mike, the owner, genuinely loves what it does, cares about the members of his gym and creating a community of all types of people with the same goal...to live a healthier life. I can't believe how much progress I've made in the past year and I couldn't have done it on my own. I love the Flood family and you will too.

Absolutely Fantastic! I came all the way from North Dakota for a Pastors conference, I got several great workouts in at CrossFit Flood. Great community and coaches.

Dan H.

This place had become my home away from home! I had been wanting to check out CrossFit for awhile so my husband and I got the one week free trial. I never expected to find such an awesome community/family! The coaches are very knowledgeable, helpful and motivating.

Amanda

Great community of regular people working hard towards being more fit and healthy. The workouts are great for all levels because the coaches help everyone find scales or extras to push each individuals abilities. I have been going to this gym since 2015.

David Fradelizio

Since joining CrossFit, I’ve reached a level of fitness I didn’t know I had in me, and I’m NEVER bored. Although I’m not a competitive person, the group atmosphere still motivates me, because I’m with people I respect and enjoy. The encouragement and camaraderie of CrossFit Flood and the CrossFit community as a whole are amazing. I’ll never go back to a traditional gym!

Rachael Anderson

Crossfit Flood’s trainers/owners, Mike and Brian, are awesome. They are concerned with your form throughout everything, which you hear a lot about when listening to people rag on Crossfit. They push you to your limits without screaming at you like maniacs. At Flood you find the true spirit of Crossfit. The trainers and the members cheer each other on; whether in competition with one another or just on the sideline everyone just wants the people working out to feel better and be better than they were the day before. Whether you’re setting a goal to lose weight, to get stronger, or to become more generally healthy and fit, Brian and Mike are there for you and will help you reach your goals.

I recently came back to CrossFit Flood after a little absence over a year and a half maybe. Coach Mike is awesome; he's also the owner. We have new coaches that are awesome - they encourage me and push me to get the best out of my workouts. I had gained a few pounds, and have been back for a month and have lost weight already. The box has also gone thru renovations; we have new equipment and a larger space - 5,000 square feet. It's not only a CrossFit but a strong community of individuals there for many reasons. CrossFit Flood is definitely worth every penny. You might think you're paying a lot, but not really, the benefits of being fit and happy have no price. Plus the things I'm learning, translates into my life. Where I'm like it's okay, little by little I'll get there. Just like anything, it takes time and hard work. CrossFit Flood will help you get to where you want to be and you'll have coaches pushing you to your limits and they will cheer you on and encourage you, EACH step of the way!

This is an awesome gym! I have been going here for about a month now. All the coaches have been very welcoming and helpful. I was nervous to start Crossfit but I am glad I did! Every day is challenging and motivating. Take advantage of the free trial week and you will love it! Mike and Brian are awesome guys!

Bianca P.

Great location and friendly staff! I’m new to cross-fit and very surprised at the results in such a short period of time. I wish I started a long time ago. If getting in the best shape of your life interests you..give it a shot. You won’t be disappointed!

Jesse M.

Super awesome CrossFit gym in the Kearny Mesa area. I checked out a morning class. The coach was very welcoming and helpful in teaching the workouts. Great vibes. Totally knowledgeable and friendly coach. Really cool people in the gym too! The gym is a bit hidden in the back area of the warehouse area but it's a nice spot once you find it! Everything you could want from a CrossFit gym. I'm totally signing up! Totally check them out if you're in the central SD area!

This cf box still has the feel of cf gyms from 6+ years ago... What you do have is a close knit group of trainers and members that make for a great experience. Lots of support and knowledge floating around here. Their pricing is more in line with reality than other boxes in the area. But here’s their best attribute, in my opinion. The programming! It is done logically. It makes sense. It’s exactly what I expect from a cf gym and that is, overall fitness. This gym deserves the positive reviews it’s receiving. Keep up the good work!

Chris N.

This gym is really great, I would definitely recommend giving it a try! I came here for a couple months while in SD. The coaches are all very friendly and knowledgeable and the other members are very welcoming. I hadn't done CrossFit before, but the coaches did a great job of explaining things and modifying workouts when necessary. There was good variation in the workouts and I always left feeling tired. Pricing was also very reasonable. I would return if I was back in SD again!

Kelsie M.

I love this place! I wrote a review on their FB page but I'll just reiterate how I love this CrossFit community. The coaches are excellent and the programming is a beast and a killer but it kicks my butt and i love it. Everyone always encourages me despite me being the slowest in the class. Just a great positive community and I'm glad I found this box. Coach Mike and Jared are awesome!

Ryan B.

Very knowledgeable and friendly team here! The gym is a nice size with a big back area. The coaches Mike and Jared are super cool and friendly. They are attentive the whole class while at the same time keeping it fun. There seems to an a lot of people who do bjj here too for their strength training. I would recommend this place for all levels. Also plenty of parking.

Ian Hernandez

The Coaches and owners are very good people who really stress the importance of proper form over how much weight you can lift. Over time you will be doing more than you ever though possible pushing yourself to reach the next level. My favorite part of this gym is the sense of community and great friendships. With lots of events(Flood, Sweat, Beers) it is easy to feel part of a team every time you go. It doesn’t matter if you are a Beast in the gym or have never lifted anything in your life I have never felt judged or put down here. This is a great gym and more than that an amazing community.

Matt Martenson

I will never be able to express just how grateful I am to be part of the Flood Family. From the day I went in to try out a class I felt right at home and knew I was where I needed to be. The owners and trainers are dedicated to being the best they can for their members, all the while giving you the friendship and motivation that I believe is integral for a CrossFit Box.
