I am SO glad my first experience with crossfit was at F3! If you are at all worried about being intimidated, not being able to keep up, or hurting yourself, you can leave those worries behind if you decide to walk through their doors. At F3 they not only acknowledge that you have a whole life outside the gym, they understand how life is about the whole experience, and how those experiences interplay, and it isn't just about the isolated time you spend with them.
Danny set me up initially with one-on-one sessions to not only go over the movements so I would be familiar, but also to correct form so I wouldn't hurt myself. He also talks about goals, not just gym/health goals, but life goals and how your time at the gym can help with those as well. He will also help you identify ways that you might be sabotaging yourself and your fitness efforts without realizing it. They want to help build a strong foundation for you to build your future on, and he has some great tips and motivation for you. Sign up for their newsletter and you will get a taste for what they are all about!
Most of my sessions were with Lupe, and let me just tell you how great she is! Not once did I feel intimidated, overwhelmed, or judged in her classes, by her or the others. She is really great about helping each person modify as necessary for fitness level, injuries, etc. and it is not about making it "easier" it is about making it safer while still building the muscle, movement, and skill. And she explains how movements will support other movements, because as much as you may want to do that one movement that looks easy but actually isn't, trying and being defeated by it over and over isn't as effective as building your strength and skills to get there and experience the satisfaction of achieving it. Lupe will get you there. Trust her. She encourages, motivates, and keeps people going. And she always has a smile for everyone. I loved classes with her and everyone else there was great too!
The thing that struck me with F3 is that Danny and Lupe genuinely care about their people. They have huge hearts and want to see people realize their own strength and abilities. I couldn't recommend them enough! If you are looking for a little nudge as we approach the new year, I hope this can be it for you!

Moving to a new city meant moving to a new CrossFit gym for me, and I was very particular about what I wanted and expected out of a gym. Imperial Beach CrossFit had great reviews and good options for payments, especially when one needs to freeze a membership. But let me tell ya, the best part about this gym is the welcoming and encouraging atmosphere Danny creates. Regardless of your fitness level or skills, he makes you feel important and ensures your needs are met in order to get the most out of the work outs. More importantly, he is truly invested in each member by helping them map out and achieve their goals. It's a positive and nurturing environment; come on out and experience it!

Place to have a great time with good people who care about their fitness. If you want to be pushed and feel like you're part of a community, this is a great place to get in shape.

I dropped in here for two weeks and had a fantastic experience. As cliche as it sounds... IBCF is truly a family. The vibe is laid back and happy. No egos... no intimidation. Just plain old sweaty fun with positive people. IBCF has a unique combination of a grassroots feel and quality experienced instruction. If I lived in IB, this would be my home box!!

F3 is the best thing that could've happened to the South Bay! I cannot say enough good things about the staff- they're awesome! When I work out there I feel like I'm hanging out with my friends while simultaneously attempting to get abs. I know it sounds super cliche to say that it's more than a gym and maybe it is but you know what? It's the truth. If you're a member, you're family...kinda like the Olive Garden minus all the carbs. If you join, you won't regret it!

Imperial Beach CrossFit is amazing. Danny and his team of coaches have each and every individual coached to their own level. The team feeling becomes a family feeling soon after you start participating. Imperial Beach CrossFit is active in our community with fundraising and pet adoption support. You come in as a stranger and stay for the new family you have become a part of... don't hesitate and call for the workout schedules and check into the free fundamentals classes. Thanks Imperial Beach CrossFit for becoming an integral part of our little beach town!!!!!

So, I've been training in a CrossFit mode since 2006, on and off. F3 is the single best place I've ever trained. I've made huge gains to my strength, mobility, and capacity- and I'm not alone. If you're ready to get better at life- in any sense- this is the best place in the South Bay, and maybe in San Diego, to do it, whether you're working out for the first time in your life, or if you have years of experience.
Welcoming, kind, motivating, and empowering- those are a few of the adjectives that come to mind.

Imperial Beach CrossFit is an excellent gym with a fun, knowledgeable and caring coaching staff. I have seen them work with athletes who have never lifted a barbell before to elite athletes and be able to cater to them both. They have an awesome indoor/ outdoor area to lift and with the beautiful weather in Imperial Beach I vote to use the outdoor! Danny (owner) keeps the place impeccably clean and has a passion for his members, for Crossfit and for life in general! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
