BCF is hands down the best gym in the area. My gf and I shopped around for several months, landed at Ballston CrossFit and couldn’t be happier. The coaches are knowledgeable and incredibly helpful with movement pattern/technique cues. The community is awesome and everyone pushes each other to be better. Would 100% recommend if you’re looking for a gym in town.

I truly enjoyed my time at Ballston CrossFit. The community here is awesome and the athletes and coaches are exceptional. The programming is also great and, with modifications, is challenging and a good workout for all levels of athletes. I also found this box to be clean, organized and well-run. BCF is very member-focused. I highly recommend this box!

Ballston CrossFit is fantastic. Great community, great coaches. No matter your fitness level, age, or gender, this is a great place to go. If you show up, you’ll improve, and have fun doing it.

I absolutely love this gym. Coach Tucker and the other coaches definitely know what they are doing and their instruction has helped me a lot. Coach Tucker is a standup guy. I was going through some hard times and he worked with me so I wouldn’t lose my membership. I’m back on track now, but he didn’t have to do that and went out of his way to help. I will be a member as long as my body allows me to!

Ballston Crossfit is amazing. The coaches and the community are top notch. It is by far the best gym Ive been a part of. They just make working out fun and something you look forward to everyday. Apart from the regular WODs, the yoga classes are a great supplement as well. Highly recommend it!

I moved from Norway to the US last summer, and had as a main goal to find a CrossFit gym in order to maintain my training. I quickly found Ballston CrossFit, and started working out there. This box has meant the world for me this year. The community is great, and all the coaches are highly qualified. I have learned Olympic weightlifting techniques which has improved my strength and made my CrossFit experience even better. The programming at BCF is very thoroughly planned and is well balanced. I really appreciate the help I’ve gotten in order to accomplish new skills and build more strength. This year would have never been the same without this gym, and I’m very sad to leave this amazing community!

I have done quite a bit of travelling (New York, Texas, California, and now Virginia) being part of different Crossfit affiliates and this is for sure the best I have joined. The coaches are very attentive and give great cues. Especially during the start of COVID, they were able to adapt and meet their members need by renting out their equipment and having Zoom classes.For beginners, they have Foundations classes to ensure that you are comfortable with all of the lifts, techniques and workout styles before jumping into regular classes. I had my wife join us on a Bring a Buddy to Crossfit day and now shes going to sign up for Foundations!If youre looking for a high-quality box, look no further. Special shout-out to Coach Cam and Coach Madison for always giving me great tips and keeping and eye on me!

I couldnt recommend BCF more highly! When I joined in late 2015, I had basically no experience with weight lifting, having always relied on sports and cardio for my fitness. I wanted to stay in shape and gain strength, and was attracted to Crossfits reputation for both functional fitness and a great community. BCF exceeded my expectations on both fronts - Ive been able to make fast friendships and am in the best shape of my life, feeling stronger and healthier than ever.I had a lot to learn about proper technique, especially when it came to olympic lifts, but the coaches at BCF made sure I never felt overwhelmed. This team of coaches is outstanding! They know their stuff, they care about helping you succeed, they dont let you give up or slack off, and they set the tone by having a blast every day.You wont regret joining BCF!

The most impressive part of Ballston CrossFit is their ability to cater to anyone from a high level athlete, to a complete novice... and those in between. The welcoming culture starts with all of the phenomenal coaches, and reflects in the receptiveness that is show to new member from existing clientele. They create an environment and fitness program that is second to none in the DMV!

Ballston CrossFit has been an absolute blessing in my life over the past 8 months. I love how much the coaches care about educating themselves so that the members in turn are getting the best coaching possible. Each coach adds a personal touch on each class so that the members are getting the best experience and fun environment. The people truly are what makes this place shine and provide an inspiration each day! 10/10 recommend.

First rate coaches. If youre advanced, they will push you to olympian levels of fitness.If youre more of a novice to CrossFit, theyll cement within you the skills you need to improve and improve very quickly. The coach to participate ratio is quite high. At all times, you can tell youre being watched and kept completely safe.Great culture with good people; coaches & member community.

I learned the techniques and movements of CrossFit at Balston CrossFit in 2012 and maintained membership for years afterwards. And through the early years, I achieved many fitness goals, formed new friendships, and experienced world class instruction from coaches. Personally, Tucker Jones the owner, truly cares about his athletes, and it shows in his methods. Balston Crossfit is an amazing gym with a strong (literally) and welcoming community of Crossfit athletes.

I am a huge fan of BCF! I am a former collegiate athlete looking for a workout that would continue to challenge me without me getting board, and would give me the results from when I played in college. I came to the gym new to CrossFit and slightly intimidated by all of the fit members. However, after the intro class with Brock and Madison, I felt welcomed and was able to fit right in.The staff and coaches at the gym are what make the classes fun and enjoyable to come to each day. They are attentive and will meet you where you are athletically, so you arent being left behind. The provide intro course to make sure that you understand the basics of CrossFit and emphasize technique to make sure you the workouts dont cause injury! I would HIGHLY recommend joining BCF if you are interested in CrossFit and looking to make a change in your workouts.

I was a member for just under a year, having to cut ties due to moving to a new apartment too far away, but my time at BCF was fantastic! All of the coaches are extremely engaging and just genuinely fun to be around, and the other members are really great people to work out with, no matter what level of fitness you are at. I highly recommend this gym; whether youre a newcomer to Crossfit as I was or highly experienced, this is a great gym to be a part of.

Best Boot Camp in Arlington! No CrossFit experience needed to take the boot camps, and theyre awesome workouts. Each Boot camp totally different than the next to keep it interesting and keep your body challenged. Great mix of cardio and strength training. The boot camp utilize basically all of the gyms equipment (which is am impressive selection) minus the barbells, which makes it possible for anyone to take without CrossFit foundations. All the coaches are awesome too. Highly Recommend, Ive been going for years!

I LOVE this place. This is the best workout you can get anywhere, period. It’s also motivating and scalable for anyone. No one ever makes you feel like you can’t do something or aren’t good enough. The standards for coaches are HIGH-they only hire the best. This means people who are always, always looking at your form and making sure you don’t hurt yourself. I also love the community and social opportunities like Faith and Fitness and Girls-only/Guys-only nights.

Ballston Crossfit is one of the best Crossfit gyms I have ever been to. Every single coach is excellent, knowledgeable, friendly, and adapts their tips and instruction to each athlete. The community is very welcoming, and there is a wide range of experience and skill level. The gym itself is big and very clean, with tons of rig space and equipment including rowers, assault bikes, ski-ergs etc. The programming is really good too, varied and adaptable and always a good time. I appreciated the structure of weekly programming because it allowed me to improve all my lifts across the board. The coaching focuses a lot on form and technique, and my Olympic lifting improved a ton thanks to the coaches. I am really sad to have moved away from the Arlington area, but I recommend this gym to everyone in the DC/Arlington area!

I was a member here for four years and I love this gym. I am moving out of state and it will be difficult to find anything that compares to BCF. I have been to A LOT of gyms and this one far out does any of them.The coaches here are hands down the best. They know their stuff and they each have their own way of making the workouts fun. Sometimes when I didnt feel like going, I would go anyway just to see my favorite coaches or workout buddies. Talk about motivation! The gym is clean, has tons of equipment and is conveniently located. What else can you ask for? Oh, I know. They frequently have social events in and outside of the gym in case youre looking to make new friends. Bonus!I would recommend this gym to newbies and experienced athletes alike. If just getting a good sweat is your thing, the coaches here can help you modify any workout so its comfortable for you. Theyll also push and train you if you want to get a PR. Here, you have the flexibility to determine your level of intensity.If that hasnt sold you, try out their free class every Saturday. This will give you a taste of what being a member of BCF feels like.

Worst part about moving from Arlington was having to leave Ballston CrossfFit! Everything was top notch, especially the community and coaches.I started with the free trial class, went through Foundations and was a member for 2 years. The only downside to starting your CrossFit journey at BCF is that anywhere you go from there feels like a step down.If you are an experienced CrossFit athlete in Arlington, you owe it to yourself to check this place out. The community, coaches and class offerings are truly second to none.If you have been considering trying CrossFit, this is definitely the place to start! Everyone is super welcoming no matter your background or fitness level. The coaches really emphasize technique and will set you up with a strong foundation that you can safely build from. My only regret was not getting started sooner!

This past summer I made the lifestyle change in diet and exercise. I had done CrossFit 8 years ago but didn’t stay around long enough to build a report with the people and get results. Since joining the Ballston CrossFit team. I have been welcomed and encouraged at Every session I have attended. The coaches have all started at the same place everyone else has started and understand that challenges and concerns.I couldn’t recommend a better place/box to join and get the best out of your all around exercise experience.

I travel quite often. As a CrossFit box owner, I am always interested to see how other gyms are run. I pay attention to everything from the cleanliness of the gym, to the friendliness of the members, the knowledge of the coaches, the quality of programming, and the overall vibe of the box.Ballston CrossFit is a spot that consistently hits the mark on all of these. It has been, and will continue to be, my box of choice in the northern VA area. The owner has created an exceptional environment that separates Ballston CrossFit from the competition.

BCF is hands down the best CrossFit gym in the DC area! The coaches and staff are all very friendly and professional and do their best to make sure everyone is getting a good workout as well as progressing in their strength and fitness goals. They do a great job with their WOD programming to focus on upcoming events while making sure to incorporate injury prevention. One very unique thing about this gym, too, is what they offer outside of the usual WOD. They hold yoga classes, strength and conditioning classes, form and technique classes, boot camps, Ab Blaster classes, and more. No mater what your strengths are, you can find something you will like. And, on top of it all, the people there are all wonderful and very welcoming. Like I said before, best CrossFit gym in the DC area!

As a busy parent with limited time between work and home, Ballston Crossfit gave me the ultimate flexibility in work out times, and membership options that worked well with my busy schedule.

The box is FUN, the WODs creatively challenging and the people that go there are diverse in all levels and ages.

I am a box owner and coach. During my travels I make it point to visit/drop-in local boxes for two reasons: 1. Support local boxes and 2. Self development (learn). To date, CrossFit Ballston is one of the best boxes I have ever visited. Class structure (format) and instruction is on point (they have outstanding coaches). Most importantly, CF Ballston has a great community (friendly and so welcoming). I had a great experience during my visit and I highly recommend CF Ballston to anyone in the area or passing through. Thank you CF Ballston and I look forward to my next visit.

Joining Ballston CrossFit was one of the best decisions Ive ever made. After attending the free trial class at BCF, I was sold. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable, encouraging, and approachable. The programming is well written and gets results while emphasizing safety and injury prevention. The skills classes allow you to learn and practice the more technical movements with more direct coaching. And not to mention, the box itself is clean, very well managed, and has every piece of equipment you could ever need.Above everything else, the people are what make BCF so great. There is a welcoming community feel and a healthy camaraderie that encourages everyone to push themselves to get better. In addition to improving at CrossFit, I have made a lot of friends along the way. I wont lie, I was a little intimidated to try CrossFit at first. But dont be! Everyone here is very supportive and respectful of everyone else. Just come ready to give it your all. I highly recommend BCF to everyone!

Our 13 year-old son wanted to try crossfit. We were a little nervous about it given his age. We had no need to worry. In just a couple of one-on-one sessions, Coach Brandon and other great folks at Ballston Crossfit helped our son learn the skills that he needed to join the group classes and our son absolutely loved going. Classes are not easy but finishing a class gave our son a great sense of accomplishment every time.

One of the best CrossFit gyms Ive attended. The coaches are far and away some of the most knowledgeable coaches Ive encountered over the years. The programming is well thought out and even includes accessory work that normal CrossFit programming typically excludes. I felt welcome from day one and the staff genuinely cares about client well-being. This shows in the clients themselves. I have yet to come across a glaring instance of improper movement gone unchecked.Its hard to come into a new CrossFit gym where the community is already established and youre the odd one out, but I never felt excluded or ignored like I have in so many other gyms.

Each coach I have taken a class with has been friendly, knowledgeable, and approachable. I consistently get new PRs here at BCF and it’s exciting to see tons of other folks at the gym having the same experience, which is a great testament to the programming here. I love being able to just show up and work hard and see results.The community here is the main reason I keep coming back. When I first started, I was coming to class because HELLO I was paying good MONEY for those classes! Now, I come because I want to see my friends and I want to lift heavy things with them.TL;DR – BCF is the best and you should just come try it out already.

Ballston Crossfit is one of the best overall gyms in the D.C. metropolitan area! The owner, Tucker Jones, has a profound enthusiasm for fitness and has created a welcoming, supportive, and inspiring community of athletes.I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to participate in a hero workout there on Memorial Day. Class started with a heartwarming tribute to our fallen heroes and proceeded with feats of strength and endurance. It was a workout I had done before, but Ballston Crossfit offered something special unlike anywhere else - pure, genuine, and empowering motivation.Thank you for being good in every sense of the word!

I LOVED every workout here! I was visiting Arlington for a month and not wanting to discontinue my CF workout I reached out to Ballston CF. Tucker was so understanding and allowed me to join them on a most reasonable plan. From day one they made me feel so welcome, just like any full-time member. The coaches are so friendly, motivating and constantly making sure my form was correct. Despite each class having almost 15-20 people the coaches always managed to monitor each one of us and make sure we were doing the right thing. The WODs were so well planned out and always a new set which kept it demanding and interesting. The members of this CF are also very motivated and friendly and I learnt a lot from them too. The whole atmosphere was so motivating for me to push myself through the difficult WODs.

Ballston Crossfit and its sister gym in Tysons Corner CrossFit Route 7 are probably the top 2 Crossfit gyms in the area in my opinion. The coaching is first-class, and they make a special emphasis on keeping a 1 to 10 teacher to student ratio for classes to ensure members receive ample attention and coaching when it comes to technique. I know a common fear I heard before starting crossfit 16 months ago was that you get injured easily, but I have had no such issues at BCF or CFR7 thanks to the coaching. Members range from people right out of college to grandparents, and very in-shape people to very out of shape people. No one is made to feel unwelcome, and everyone is encouraged no matter what your ability level is. The vibe is good at both gyms, and I felt encouraged to come back. Going to the gym 3x a week consistently got me noticeable results in a few months, and now CrossFit is just a part of my life and has helped me grow into a healthier lifestyle in other areas (nutrition, going out, sleep, meditation, etc.). Highly recommend BCF to anyone wanting to try out CrossFit regardless of skill level.

Great coaching, killer workout. Ive been to about a dozen, or so, CrossFit gyms around the country as a drop-in since I travel for work and the Navy reserve. I have to say this gym is the best drop-in experience Ive had. The coach was excellent at explaining the movements, giving each of us individual tips, and keeping engaged throughout the workout. The workout programing was excellent too with a good warmup, a vigorous tabata-style workout and then a brutal metcon that had me pushing my limits.

BCF is a great crossfit gym. Ive had the pleasure of being a part of this box for the past 2 years. The coaches are awesome and provide encouraging feedback to help me improve my lifts and conditioning. I would highly recommend BCF.

Joining BCF was honestly one of the best decisions I have made. At my first class, I immediately felt welcome and comfortable. I had no experience lifting, but the coaches were great at helping me scale and substitute movements. The classes are so fun and motivating, that I look forward to attending each WOD! BCF has definitely changed the way I look at fitness. I will never go back to my boring gym routine. Another get part of BCF is that I love is that the box offers boot camp and yoga classes for free for members. I am in the best shape I have ever been and have so much energy. I am absolutely hooked! Tucker and the other coaches are great! Would highly recommend this box!

BCF is a great place to increase your overall fitness and improve your quality of life across the board. BCF offers far more than the average CrossFit gym. Tucker, the owner, and the entire BCF coaching staff go out of their way to make every athlete feel welcomed and encouraged to do the best they can. Tucker regularly finds new ways to offer new ways for members to improve not only their fitness, but their overall health as well. Tucker offers a Power Supply pickup fridge in the gym for nutritious meals, brings in chiropractors and physical therapists to assess aches and pains, and continually changes the class offerings in response to member requests.The coaching staff really knows what theyre doing and provide individual feedback to improve technique during the strength portion and the metcon workouts. Staff and members alike workout together and have developed a great community that extends beyond just the gym. I couldnt have found a better place to workout.

At the beginning of the year (2015), I hit an all-time low with my physical and mental well being. I had just gotten out of a long-term relationship, I weighed more than I ever had before, and the job had few ups and lots of downs. Needless to say, I needed a strong turnaround. I found that in Ballston CrossFit (BCF).Id like to consider myself a success story for BCF. In just over two and a half months, I had lost 32 pounds. I was inspired by the coaches of BCF, I was eating better (even went Paleo!), and living a more positive lifestyle. I attribute a lot of my success to guidance of the coaches in the gym. The coaching staff is phenomenal and the work-outs work!Success ensued in the months to follow--I got a new job, moved in to a new apartment, and have more energy than Ive had in years.
