Love this place. Tyler, Amber and the rest of the team really care about all of the team members. If you are looking for a place in West Des Moines or Waukee to workout, stopping reading this and give the team at Krave a call!

Methodically planned workouts. Avoids plateaus. Friendly atmosphere. Greatest coaches in town. Head Coach Zach is professional, knowledgeable and motivating. The owners, Amber and Tyler give back to the community and are open and welcoming.

Gym is good but one of the head coaches Zach is rude and not customer friendly.

I have been in and around different types gyms from before I was a freshman in high school. The majority have been a large space with an assortment of free weights and machines. These gyms were fine for what they were. However, Krave Gym is NOT one of those gyms. Krave was designed to build a culture around their gym so that it wasn't just a place to lift weights but a place to meet friends and improve together. If your desire is to lift weights on your own or with a friend then leave, you can. If your desire is to get back into shape or simply lose a few pounds, their coaches have an incredible amount of knowledge about nutrition. If your a former athlete who's tired of the monotony of working out alone and want to challenge yourself, you can. The classes are design to push the limits of any level of participant, you go as hard as you are capable and the results will come. Krave is more than a gym, it's a community that I couldn't recommend strongly enough to anyone who wants to better themselves. Don't take my word for it, they offer one free trial class, get in there and try it for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

Great gym, love the energy everyone brings to class and most of all how diverse the members are. It ranges from athletes fresh out of college to 60 year old women kicking their butts while being encouraged by the coaches each and every session!! Love krave!

I would give more stars if I could! I have been working out here for 2+ years and honestly look forward to every work out. It never gets easier, but I have gotten a lot stronger. I have tried many area gyms and have been an athlete my entire life from elementary school through college, and have never had the results I have had from Krave at any other gym. Their coaches are educated with college degrees and certifications from professional licensing boards. You get as much one on one coaching you request with nutrition, classes, and extra lifts to meet whichever goals you set. I will be a lifer! I have found my happy place!

Good if you're already in shape and athletic. Program isn't designed for people that aren't sure of what their doing. I would have given 4 stars but after I signed up I wasn't encouraged as promised.

I've only been once (so far) so 5/5 may be generous, but first impressions are important and they knocked it out of the park.
A little background: I'm 6'1 265lbs and pretty much no muscle mass. That combination has made me really self-conscious, and for years I've been putting off going to the gym.
Appearance: nestled in a strip mall Krave is unassuming from the outside. Inside it's clear they had some serious financial backing. To the right and left were machines/weights while the center was turf with weights, ropes, and heavy bags.
Workout: it's HIT. The first 5 minutes or so is individual stretching. Then we paired up, went outside, and started the first exercise. One partner would spring 50 yards and sprint back while the other did burpies, I think we did 3 sets, followed by a quick 1/4 mile lap. After the lap we were all assigned stations, 2 exercises done b2b per station, 3 sets, rotate.
Overall: great first experience. If you sign up online they will give you a free workout. The owner, Tyler, texted me to set it up about an hour later. Lagrande pushed me, and the environment was incredibly positive. I do wish they had more showers, but all in all I will be joining.

I interned here this summer and I feel very lucky to have been a part of the family here at Krave. I had an absolute blast coaching classes and getting to know all of the Krave Team. The workouts are fast-paced and fun and incorporate strength, striking, agility, and endurance work. The workouts are structured in such a way that allows just about any person of any fitness level to come in and get an awesome workout in. I loved coming to work everyday and seeing the smiling faces and everybody there wanting to work hard, have fun, and get better together. Krave is the place to be!

We toured the facility, and I'm extremely impressed. Their equipment is unique and high-end, and they have a great routine including cardio, "striking", and strength. This is not a gym for those who want to just use a facility, but rather a gym for those who want a guided training program with a close group of like-minded people. I was also impressed with the "tech" of this gym. They're one of the only gyms who advertise real, no-haggle pricing right on their website (so you don't have to waste time with "car salesman" pitches and pricing games, fees for this and that, etc.). Their website is well designed, their staff respond to emails and text messages, and they even have an app with a composite score to track your progress and improvement. This is definitely a gym for the millennials! Unfortunately, the price was out of our budget, but I definitely would choose this gym in a heartbeat under different circumstances.
