I started CrossFit Koncepts the last day of my cancer treatment. My aunt is a member and she recommended I try it out. The minute I walked in, I felt welcomed , like these were old friends!For the first few months, Mike helped me scale all my workouts to fit my ability , since I was just getting back into working out .I have been here 5 years and love it . I even got my niece to join!Mike has great knowledge and always willing to help or modify things if necessary. The group of people I work out with are always supportive of each other!

I've been attending CrossFit Koncepts off and on for years to help reverse the effects of a job that requires lots of sitting. The gym has world class coaching and can help with increasing muscle mass, joint mobility, and heart health. The owner, Mike, has a great eye for body mechanics and can help you dial in your technique to avoid injury. The group of people who work out there are great to see each week too! I always leave at the end of class feeling happy.

Great gym! I've been going for a couple months now and I get individual instruction when needed, it's like having a personal trainer every time I go... Mike is great and so is my friend Lori who is also like a personal trainer with so much encouragement. I'm learning that proper form is soooo very important. Friendly folks, highly recommend!

I've been training with Mike from CrossFit Koncepts since 2002 or so. He is an expert in the art of Kettlebells and many other forms of fitness. He is always coming up with really cool workout routines that keep everything fresh, while also helping me customize my routine as needed to keep it challenging.Mike is also really good with beginners and will have you feeling like a CrossFit Kettlebell pro in no time!I would recommend CrossFit Koncepts to everyone who wants to be fit!

Fun, but hard working atmosphere. Coaches with a wealth of knowledge and skill. Everyone is very friendly. When you finish your workout, you know you've worked out :) Great place to be and workout.

We've been CFK members for over a decade. The specificity and training cannot be surpassed! If you are looking to enhance, build, rebuild, this is the only place I recommend.

So, I’m a gym rat…but half a dozen functional training 1on1’s with the owner, Mike totally refocused me. One session of bodyweight squats highlighted the weakness and instability of my hips…quads be damned. He is also enthusiastic, charismatic and a joy to train with.

I’ve been working out at Crossfit Koncepts for over nine years, and can honestly say this place has changed my life. The focus is not on personal records or the fastest time, but training to improve your mobility, flexibility, and strength, achieved mostly through the use of kettlebells and bodyweight exercises. While the workouts are challenging, they can be scaled to any level, and there is nothing that will make you feel more badass than swinging around a heavy kettlebell!. No matter how good (or bad) my day is, I always walk out feeling better than I did when I walked in, thanks to the great community, created by one of the world’s finest kettlebell instructors, Mike Krivka. There is no one you will find locally who is more knowledgeable about fitness, or more dedicated to continuous improvement. Crossfit Koncepts is definitely worth serious consideration for your fitness needs.

Mike is a passionate about doing kettlebell workouts correctly (correct form, not hurting your back). It's a great community of people and they motivate you to a higher level of fitness. After spending years of running and lifting weights, learning how to kettlebells correctly has transformed my body and made my exercise routine more efficient. I'm much stronger and leaner!

Great gym, great people, amazing leader!!!! Where are the other 5 stars to give this a 10???When I moved to Maryland I visited several gyms to find one that fit my needs both for working out and for my personality. Some were ok but none fit What I was looking for which was to learn correct movement....until I found CrossFit and Mike Krivka. I had lived in Colorado, Iowa and Maryland at that point and no where did I find an instructor who took the time to work with me one on one to ensure I knew the correct way to use kettlebells and barbells the way Mike did. Even though I moved away after a year the friendships I had built and the trust I have in Mike and others he has taught to help run this facility have kept me tied to them from afar. I can call or text Mike and he will watch my technique on video if I feel I have lost touch with my form without judgment. He is always willing to post great videos to help me and many others who can’t be there in person. I have made friends and and an instructor for life!!!!

I can’t say enough positive things about CrossFit Koncepts and Mike. I bounced around a number of different gyms or workout methods and never found anything I stuck with until I met Mike. It’s been 11 years now and I am still amazed at the quality of instruction, the variety in the WODs, and the camaraderie from fellow gym members. While I have always been impressed with mikes knowledge, ability to teach (he’s a stickler for proper technique!), and enthusiasm, these last few months during the gym shutdown, have really honed in as to why Mike is one of a kind and I wouldn’t want to be training with anyone else. His ability to encourage and support knows no bounds and I am grateful.

Great community of people working out together. Mike and John are very knowledgeable and the best! I’ve gotten in great shape and daily pain I used to have is now gone. People of all backgrounds and ages come together to improve themselves as a group!
