908 Athletics - Westfield

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for some good changes and good vibes in your life, this is the place you are looking for. 908 Athletics - Westfield is my first time and first gym to do cross-fit, it have been nine months -- the time that helps me physically and mentally. "It is hard, doesn't mean you can't do it." The coaches and the owner are very friendly and professional, they remember you right away; people there are very kind; the whole atmosphere make you feel very homey. THIS is a gym that you don't want to miss. **By the way, their Berkeley High location is also fun.

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough how great this gym is! I've been coming for 3 years, and I'm in the best shape of my life. I always struggled to work out consistently until I started coming to 908. The coaches are great. The workouts are challenging and fun. Everyone is supportive of one another. I highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great gym with great members! I love coming to the gym whenever it’s to coach or take class with the community! Some of the best hours of my days are spent with the members and they always make my day!

Fantastic experience: It may be weird to say but sometimes the highlight of my day is coming to my 908 class with my 9:15 crew in the morning as the best start to my dayI joined 908 almost 4 years ago and after having memberships at many of the gyms in the surrounding area 908 is by far my favorite place and the best workout I have ever experienced. I was nervous at first to join a CrossFit gym and unsure if I could keep up, worried about getting injured or if it was the right fit for me. The on ramp sessions before you start are great and teaches you the basic fundamentals and gives you that initial basic confidence.After that the coaches do a great job always making you feel comfortable, checking on your form and correcting you, modifying a workout for you if needed, pushing you when you think you have nothing left and always being positive and helpful to your progress. To start with the owners of the gym Tim and Erin Carroll are quite possibly two of the most caring, genuine and salt of the earth people that I have ever met. They genuinely care about their gym, their members and their staff and coaches, they will take classes consistently at different times and make an effort to spend time at both of their gyms and with their members. One example of their kindness and positivity that always stood out to me was when I made it to the top of the rope for the first time. Erin the owner brought me upstairs, pulled up the footage for me from the video cameras (where I may or may not have shrieked a hilarious yell bc I was so excited about making it to the top), sent me the clip to have, and also posted it on their instagram page making me feel that love and that they were proud of me too. The programming is dynamic, it’s always different and truly helps you reach your goals. From barbell work, to dumbbells, core work, conditioning etc I never get bored and always feel challenged. The members are also what makes the experience so great and we truly are a family..I highly recommend 908 10 times over.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for 15 years. 908 Athletics exemplifies what it is to be a supportive community. You are always welcomed in with open arms. The coaches are always approachable and willing to work with any injuries or problem areas you may have. I can’t say enough about this place. It’s more than a gym. It’s a home away from home.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic community! Big recommendation.

Fantastic experience: This gym is truly exceptional. The sense of community is unmatched — every member and coach fosters an atmosphere of encouragement, accountability, and support. The coaching staff is highly skilled and dedicated, providing expert guidance and motivation in every class (even at 5 a.m) the energy and positivity in the gym are inspiring. It’s a place where you not only build strength and fitness but also become part of a team that genuinely celebrates each other’s progress. An outstanding environment for anyone committed to growth and wellness.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Top notch coaching, programming, and facilities. Everyone at the gym is friendly, supportive, and helps keep me motivated. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to 908 Athletics - Westfield for about 6 months now and I could not be happier with my experience. I came from another CrossFit gym and this one is cleaner, better equipped, and friendlier than my old gym. The coaches genuinely care and make you feel welcome each and every day. The other members are friendly and fantastic encouragement on days when you need a little boost. I love coming here every day and I’m looking forward to being a member for a long time!

Fantastic experience: Joined last month and wish I did it earlier. The community here has been nothing but welcoming and supportive. Each workout has been a challenge but guidance from the amazing coaches and supper from the fellow members has been great. Now I just need to work of shifting from surviving to thriving lol

Fantastic experience: I’ve been loving my time at 908 Athletics! The community here is incredible—everyone is so welcoming and supportive. The coaches are all super knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely care about your progress. They always take the time to explain things and make sure you're moving safely and confidently. It’s such a positive, motivating environment, and I honestly look forward to every workout. Whether you're new to CrossFit or have been doing it for years, 908 Athletics makes you feel right at home. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I'm writing this with a week of classes left before an upcoming out of town move. This review is long, long overdue. I've been doing CrossFit on and off since about 2013, having injured myself on multiple prior occasions at other gyms. I've been coming to 908 now for just over 3 years. I'm still in once piece (despite my generally poor judgement!), thanks to an experienced, observant, and just plain caring team of coaches. I'm also stronger, more engaged in working out than I've ever been, and feel more a part of a true community than I've ever felt. Leaving this place is difficult to think about; I don't think it's completely set in yet. It's a special place with special people. When you first visit you'll feel welcomed, and if you stick around long enough you'll feel loved. This is a great gym, and if you're looking to give CrossFit a try this is where you should go.

Fantastic experience: I never thought I would ever try CrossFit but a classmate from another fitness facility I attend encouraged me to check it out. After attending one intro class, I felt this type of workout style is something I would like to continue. Therefore, I signed up for fundamentals with Carlos to learn proper form and was guided through the whole membership process with Christina. I am still learning technique, but truly enjoying the process. 908 is clean, welcoming, and also plays great music during a workout (“Bodies” by Drowning Pool is my new favorite workout song now! ) I would recommend this facility to anyone and pleased to be part of such a nice community of people.

Fantastic experience: 908 Athletics is amazing! When I first joined a little over a year ago I was really nervous to join a crossfit gym, but everyone there is really wonderful! The coaches are all so motivating and great at helping with form and giving guidance on scaling movements if you need. All the members are really nice and welcoming too!

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a gym that delivers across abilities, this is it. It’s incredibly clean, well run, and the programming and coaching is well thought out and top grade. Whether you are a CrossFit pro or just starting, they have what you need here with the experience to guide you on your journey with attention to your personal goals.

Fantastic experience: you guys are awesome!!!!Its really fun being a part of this community and getting to my health goals

Fantastic experience: Great facility, great coaches, great fitness community!

Fantastic experience: I tried 908 on a lark during covid and it's been one the the best changes I've ever made. The community makes the already amazing classes better. I'm in the best shape of my life at 57 and am bummed when I miss a day at the gym. It's really a community more than a gym.

Fantastic experience: 908 Athletics is a game-changer. From intense workouts to attentive coaching, this facility delivers top-notch fitness experiences every week. You will experience exhaustion & pain (good pain) and yet you will be back for more. The classes are challenging, pushing you beyond your limits in a safe and structured environment. What sets 908 apart is the meticulous focus on technique, ensuring every client performs exercises correctly to prevent injury and maximize results. If you're ready to elevate your fitness journey and suffer a little bit (again in the best possible way), this is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Walking through the doors at 908 is usually the best part of my day. The owners & coaches care about you as an individual. Whether you show up with no experience (like me!) or have been crossfitting for years, the 908 coaches are always encouraging & making sure you're safe. Not to mention coaches Stina & Karen who taught me SO much about basic nutrition while doing the 6 week nutrition challenge. With all of this combined I feel so much stronger & healthier since starting at 908 a year & a half ago & appreciate all of the constant support from the staff & community.

Fantastic experience: Hey there! Just wanted to drop a quick shoutout to 908 at Westfield ️‍♂️ Seriously, if you're on the hunt for a top-notch spot to crush those fitness goals, look no further! The coaches here are absolute rockstars – super supportive, mega knowledgeable, and always pushing you to be your best self. The community vibe? Always cheering you on every step of the way. What I love most is how they tailor workouts to fit your level while still nudging you to level up. Been doing CrossFit for a while and tried a few spots, even abroad, but hands down, this one is the absolute best!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of 3 or 4 different Crossfit gyms due to moving around after college and 908 is, by far, my favorite. I’ve been a member here for about a year and a half and I love so many different aspects of this place. The coaches make sure you approach the workout safely with solid warm ups, compassionate guidance based on your skill level, and feedback for improving over time. The workouts make me work hard and challenge me but I almost always have more energy on days I come to the gym than days I don’t. And the atmosphere created is super welcoming and friendly. Ive met some incredible people here and can’t say enough good things about it. I hope you try it and join us for a workout.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at a couple gyms in my life. None of them have ever made me feel like family like 908 does.

Fantastic experience: Just completed a 6 week nutrition challenge with the 908 nutrition coaches with the goal of adding some healthy habits to my daily routine. Feeling pretty good post challenge and learned that I need to eat more protein and veggies as well as stretch! If you are looking to add healthy habits to your routine the 6 week challenge is a great place to start without having to count macros (the best part).

Fantastic experience: Outstanding facility! I dropped in this afternoon from out of town to a warm greeting, impeccable equipment, and great coaching! Due to my travel schedule I usually drop into 40-50 crossfit gyms across the country every year, 908 athletics is among the very best in the nation. If you are in the Westfield area get in there and give them a try!

Fantastic experience: I started at 908 Athletics after trying crossfit at another gym and was immediately hooked. The owners and coaches are superb, the gym is beautiful, and the community is amazing. They have classes every day, at a multitude of times, so it’s easy to make it work for your schedule. The coaches are all so knowledgeable and will help me modify when needed or push me appropriately when they know I can do more. It’s now been over five years and I am stronger and fitter than ever before in my life. I could not imagine working out anywhere else.

Fantastic experience: I dropped in at 908 athletics for the month and really enjoyed myself. They provide the perfect combination of cardio and Olympic weightlifting within their programming.

Fantastic experience: Best CrossFit gym around! If you’re looking for a great facility, great coaches and great people than this is the place for you

Fantastic experience: 908 provides an incredible community of athletes, paired with the best programming and facilities I have been to in the state (and i have visited quite alot). Everyone is friendly and welcoming and the coaches are knowledgeable, patient, and able to make any workout fit your situation. They have something for Elites and something for regular people with zero judgement whatsoever. I am comfortable and happy here and I dont ever have to think about what workout I am doing, just show up and its all taken care of. Facilities are immaculate with the newest and well maintained equipment which is also a motivator for me. But most importantly its the community and support network that in the end make this place truly special.

Fantastic experience: Awesome coaches, effective programming, and supportive members! Perfect for experienced crossfitters and those new to the sport as well. Give it a try, you won't regret it!

Fantastic experience: Great gym and a great community.

Fantastic experience: Was always intimidated by CrossFit. During pandemic needed to get off couch and CF 908 was open outside. I was hooked after a week. CF908 staff and members make it welcoming. Dont be guided by what you *think* you know about CF...show up and see what it *actually* is. There are multiple variations for every exercise.. Coaches 'Stina and Sam are wonderful. A year later my only regret is I didn't start CF years ago.

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches that have guided me through my first CrossFit experiences! Even with the tough time we are going through now, they have adapted to virtual classes and equipment rental to allow all of us to continue our training at home.

Fantastic experience: The coaches at 908 central are extremely knowledgeable, supportive, and friendly. Great spot for anyone with any level of experience of fitness. State of the art facility and equipment, complimented by a wonderful and involved community. Christina is the best!

Fantastic experience: Extremely spacious, crossfit 908 is one of the biggest boxes I have visited and have thee cleanest bathrooms. The coaches are friendly, similar to the community. I felt welcomed from the moment I walked in. I got lost using the GPS because I didnt expect the box to be within the plaza and was pleasantly surprised once entering box.

Fantastic experience: Crossfit 908 is an incredible addition to Westfield. My wife and I look forward to the community, the coaching and of course, the work out. Keeps us mentally and physically fit. Would recommend highly to anyone looking for a first class gym.

Fantastic experience: CrossFit 908 is just one of the coolest, most fun, welcoming places to ever work out. It is an amazing community within itself. The coaches are great at modifying workouts for beginners, people with injuries, and they take into consideration if you’re training for another type of physical event. I’ve been working out with this fantastic team since April and I don’t know what I would do without them. They make me a better person inside and out.

Fantastic experience: First time trying out the crossfit and after going through the initial training period I am thoroughly enjoying the workouts and vibe of the place.

Fantastic experience: I had the chance to drop in here a few times while in Jersey visiting family. The 6am class and coaches were super welcoming and the programming was great! I appreciate that they post the workout online the night before so that I know what gear I need to travel with. Will definitely come back next time!

Fantastic experience: Great classes, knowledgeable staff, and an unbeatable location, especially for NYC commuters!

Fantastic experience: I love Crossfit 908 Central! Not only is it in a great location, but Tim & Erin have created another amazing community. The diverse programming paired with wonderful coaching is the perfect combination. I’m so proud to be a member of CF908!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about CrossFit 908 Central. Tim and Erin out did themselves with the facility itself, it is amazing and the coaches are second to none. Christina and Sam bring a fun and energetic attitude to every single class. The programming challenges me everyday to better myself and my coaches ensure my safety with all the movements. I’ve found such an incredible community here, I recommend anyone wanting to give it a try for the first time or any veteran Crossfitter looking for a “new home” to come down to CrossFit 908 Central. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: This gym is Awesome. Love the fact that it is client driven meaning that they care about the client, not their money. They want you to feel good and have fun doing it at the same time. Can't say enough about the coaches and the fun environment they create to help people feel good.
