This group of people is amazing and this gym is amazing.I moved to this area and I had never done CrossFit before but Matador Fitness was the closest gym to my house. I ended up having the best fitness experience of my life. Coach David was great and taught me how to do all the barbell movements and gave the right amount of encouragement and coaching to keep me coming in. From October 2021 to May 2022, I went to the 5am classes here, which were perfect for me to get my workout in before workout. I made amazing friends with all the gym members. My wife and I have to move now because of work, but this gym had a huge impact on my physical and mental toughness. I'm looking forward to continuing CrossFit in the city we're moving to. Today was my last day at Matador, and the crew sent me off with an amazing farewell and goodbye card! I can't think of a better, more hard-working group of folks. Not just gym-mates but friends.

The gym is tucked away but definitely a hidden gem once you find it. Coach Dave is very knowledgeable to his craft and when you set your goals, he'll ensure you meet them. Aside from the training/coaches, your fellow gym partners will push you to greater lengths regardless if you're a beginner or intermediate level, you will work as a unit. On top of meeting goals and staying motivated you get to have fun and enjoy working out as you climb your own ranks of fitness. Highly recommend if you're just starting out or want to be challenged!

I'm scared to write this review because more people will want to join this hidden pittsburg gym . As much as I want to keep it a secret this gym needs recognition. These past two years have been pandemically bad. Being home all the time can lead to bad habits and terrible mental health. So I joined this gym. I'm no where near the level of the veterans at this gym, but I keep going and keep surprising myself every time. It's tough. It's fun. It's structured. Its clean. Its perfectly located. it took a couple months before it became part of my new life style, but once it did it's powerful mental and physical medicine. Coach is a character. He reminds me of strict high school teachers, hard exteriors but all love in the inside. Unless you forget to sign in, then he is just mad... lol. This gym is for you If you tried regular gyms and don't know what you are doing, or need more out of your workouts. This place is definitely for you if you need a group fitness vibe, I call it collective struggle. Partner workouts are my personal favorites. I don't know what I'm doing but I know that the people at this gym are going to help me figure it out. One last thing! This gym has no mirrors, and I love that!

Every time I come to the box I know I will be challenging, never the same. It’s great to get out from the comfortable, the bonus is having other people cheering you on to finish your workout. It’s really a stress reliever when you get done with the class.

I am officially hooked! I first started coming to CrossFit Matador six months ago and I was admittedly skeptical because I have had little success in a gym atmosphere in the past. The only difference is, this is not a gym! 6 months and 30 pounds later, I am feeling stronger, faster and my energy level is at an all time high!

Gaining Muscle is the first thing that goes through your mind but Crossfit gives far beyond just muscle! It gives stamina, speed, explosiveness, mobility, and when you wrap that all up it gives you mental confidence in your body to push yourself to limits in the gym and in everyday life. Coach David understands the physical and most of all the mental impact doing crossfit can have on a person and that's what make his gym that much better. Now come get them gains! 💪

I joined 6.5 months ago and this has been the best decision for me. Coach is very knowledgeable and is always teaching and pushing me to do my best. I enjoy coming everyday because I know I will get the most out of my workout and feel great the rest of the day. If you are thinking about joining....don't think just do it!

Coach Dave is amazing! Such a supportive atmosphere. If you're looking to change your life- through eating healthier and work out- this is definitely your place. CoachDave is super creative with the work out plans and very affordable for the offerings.

I honestly didn't know what crossfit was until I came across this box. I didn't know it would be the most challenging physical thing I ever did and I could not have known how much I love the challenge it presents every time I go. Being a professional couch potato, I didn't know that I was even capable of doing any of this stuff. Coach and Box members have convinced me that not only can I do it, I can progress and advance! Coach is always checking and making sure form and technique are correct and my Box mates are always welcoming and cheering me on. In just two months, my blood sugar levels have improved astronomically and I'm feeling great! Yah, I'm gonna be a member for a long long time!
