I started doing personal training with the owner, Ryan, about 2 months ago. I’ve had to do a lot of “unlearning” when it comes to fitness and weight training and finally got to a good head space with my own idea of how to stay healthy and strong.I decided I wanted to try to safely start training with heavier weights again and didn’t know where to begin. Hook’d was close to my house and I was impressed with the website and how they actually required you to do 6 private sessions to ensure your form was correct and safe before joining group classes. There was also (amazingly) a strong focus on mobility in their verbiage vs “weight loss”. So I took the leap and did the free consultation with Ryan!Thankfully, I did! Ryan was honest with me from the onset that group classes probably were not a good fit for me. He was genuine and was looking out for me, not trying to pitch me on private training at all. I asked about private sessions and 8 weeks later I’m so thankful I found Ryan and Hook’d!! I feel stronger and I feel safe and supported working with Ryan each week. He clearly is invested in understanding the best approach to exercise for my body and I noticed a difference in only a few weeks both in and out of session in my daily life.Besides that, the rest of the coaches and all the people I have met in passing who attend Hook’d are kind, funny, human, and the opposite of judgmental. It’s unlike any other gym environment I’ve ever been in and I would highly recommend Hook’d for both their classes and private training. I sincerely look forward to my time there each week and trust in Ryan to help me accomplish my goals in an intentional and knowledgeable way that most of the fitness industry lacks.

I joined Hook’d 3 months ago. And I honestly never thought I’d be apart of a gym for this long. But I keep going back because the coaches and people there make me laugh every time I’m there. And I’m starting to finally feel comfortable and strong in my body. So if you are looking for a place to help motivate you to go to the gym, then this is the perfect place!

Couldn’t recommend a better gym environment than Hook’d. Are you tired of feeling awkward at the gym? Not knowing what you’re doing? Or not motivated? This team will accept, teach, and push you to be stronger everyday. Even the days I’m not “feeling up to it”, I walk out of the gym, happy I went. Not just because of the intense workouts, but because the coaches brightened my day or someone else’s, with their great attitudes. After two years, I learned how to lift (and properly), received great working out advice (and in life), and feel confident with my body and how strong I have gotten. Thank you, Hook’d family.

For a long time I was reluctant to try weight training. Finally, at the advice of my physical therapist, I have added it to my weekly routine. The coaches at hook'd are excellent. Chris tailors all my workouts to build my running endurance and speed while not aggravating, and even helping to improve, my running injuries. They are patient, non-judgmental, and incredibly encouraging, validating and inspiring that I can do hard things! Ryan, both owner and coach, is also a builder of community. Gyms were never places I felt at home until I found hook'd.

Here's the thing about finding the right gym. You want to not only get a great workout in but to feel welcomed, paid attention to, educated and safe. Well Ryan and his team check all these boxes! The coaches are very knowledgeable, provide the right dose of "let's go" mentality and are cool people!The members are also very welcoming no matter your skill level. I only go 1x with my wife and we feel "at home" each time.Another thing to mention is Ryan's (owner) support of local businesses is amazing. He'll always mention a member's business or a restaurant he went to in town. Love that about him.I HIGHLY recommend Hook'd!

I started going to Hook’d 6 months ago and the first month they took the time to provide me one on one coaching to get an understanding of my physical capabilities and me as an individual. As I started to get into the group classes although I felt awkward and self conscious at first I soon realized that we are all the for the same purpose and the coaches and members are inclusive and supportive. I have come to look forward to the work outs and the challenges I get if I am not pushing myself hard enough, we all have those days of not giving 100%.Highly recommend.

I’ve been a member of Hook’d for years now, and I would never go anywhere else! The coaches always show up everyday and push you to be a better version in the gym and outside of the gym. They care about your workout & encourage you to work harder and do things you didn’t feel you were capable of. Plus, the programing is so customizable and can always be adjusted to make the workout better for you! Outside of workouts, being part of Hook’d is like being in a huge family. The community is just awesome.

I joined Hook'd 6 months ago. I'm 53 and was pretty inactive for years. I went to Hook'd because I needed to do something. I had no experience of any kind of crossfit before this. Now I am totally hook'd on this place. Ryan is a fun, knowledgeable trainer. They really work to get you better and are always very encouraging. The classes are like family and there's a variety of levels within the classes and everyone encourages each other.im so happy I found this gym! Highly recommend this gym.

All I can say is I wish I can clone CrossFit Hook’d to where I’m moving to. I was a member from 2018-2019 until I had to relocate for career reasons. I have tried 2 different CrossFit gyms and NOTHING compares to Hood’d. Extremely knowledgeable and friendly staff. Great workouts. Clean facility. Created an amazing gym community. If you’re looking for a sign to join a gym and improve your health and life, THIS is the place to start!

Ridiculously clean. Fantastic class sizes. Phenomenal quality of instruction and supervision. THE BEST BOX around! I have some significant limitations - they watch me closely and always offer fulfilling substitution movements and building blocks.
