It is really hard to describe the high level of care and professionalism that I experienced at CrossFit Blacksburg School of Fitness. The coaches are amazing, the workouts intelligently deployed and the community is welcoming and unpretentious. I cannot recommend this place enough, the amount of time taken to dial in the workouts to me specifically was impressive as I got started. It really is a school of fitness, an ongoing learning environment that lends it self to advancement in all areas of self improvement. No matter your skill level or level of conditioning, you will feel at home when you walk through the doors and most importantly, you will get results.

I trained here for almost three years, and I really enjoyed it. The workouts are tough but approachable, and the community is top notch. I think the best part, though, is the coaching. Jesse and the rest of the coaches do a great job teaching movements and techniques that let me advance while keeping me safe. This is important because they do cool stuff like olympic barbell lifts as part of the workouts. Through their coaching, I was able to build up to some pretty advanced movements I never would have thought I could do when I was just going to a regular gym.

I had a great time working out here my senior year as a VT student. The coaches were helpful, personable, and very encouraging. They are willing to work with you through issues, give helpful tips/exercises to improve, and help to push you to give more than you thought possible. I saw drastic, positive changes in my body and mentality since beginning CrossFit here and have continued elsewhere after graduating and moving.

Im stronger in my 50s than Ive been been! The coaches are approachable, attentive, and focused on each clients needs. The workouts are scaled, so I can go to class with my 23 year old son, and get the same, but appropriate for me, workout! I appreciate Trebels welcoming atmosphere and dedication to their purpose...their clients health!

I came to them with an injury and they formulated a plan including networking with different types of physical therapy in the area to help me get better. The multi-strategy along with communication among the trainers to know your specific challenge areas and to formulate a plan to attack each workout is amazing and refreshing. Also, my husband now has strength and flexibility like he never had in the areas that kept him from doing activities he once avoided. These limiting old injuries that has accumulated through the years have become nearly a non-factor. It has transformed our lives, thanks guys!

I am just about to complete my first boot camp at Cross Fit Blacksburg. It has been rewarding; all the people have been real nice. The team work has been genuine. It is suitable for all levels of capability. There are people who this is there first time off the couch, people like myself who haven’t done any structured workout since high school and those who run or workout often. The coaches make it so that everyone gets a challenging workout. The coaches really encourage you to scale to fit your skill level. I have been impressed with how they continue to find a way to make it challenging at every class. You will want and need to bring a towel and water bottle. I have already signed up for the next boot camp.

I usually do only pilates for exercise so I was nervous when I signed up for one of the boot camps Cross Fit Blacksburg offers. CF is not easy, but after my experience, I think almost anyone is capable of doing it. The best part of CF Blacksburg is the coaching! They dont push the no pain, no gain mantra. Instead, they encourage you to put forth your best effort to complete the exercises and keep working your way up. They are knowledgeable and have great scaling options for whatever your fitness level is. The coaches and members of the gym form a great community full of encouragement as you reach reach your fitness goals. I always leave Cross Fit Blacksburg feeling accomplished.

CFBB was my first ever CrossFit experience and it couldnt have been a better gym to start with! The coaches are so knowledgeable not only in the mechanics of CrossFit movements, but they understand the body and the health and nutrition that goes into a solid workout regimen. All the members are so friendly and the coaches are excellent at teaching the movements so you get a good workout even if you cant lift heavy weight. I always had fun and worked hard when I went to the gym here and was SO sad to leave when I moved. I cant wait to come back for a visit!

The amount of detail and overall knowledge the coaches at CrossFit Blacksburg bring to each person on the floor to best understand their fitness needs is unmatched. Not only that, when youre here its a wonderful family atmosphere where everyone is cheering on and motivating each other.

CFBB will go above and beyond for their clients. They personalize your own road to success; weather it be critiquing a workout plan or a better eating plan to help you reach your goals and then some. They are so much more than your average gym. They are a family, a community, and great friends! I can attest to this first hand with my service. I have never had a bad experience since I walked thru the door over a year and half ago!!!! Check them out, what are you waiting for!!

Crossfit Blacksburg is perfect for anyone looking for an effective, fun, and diversified work-out experience. In my 3 years of going here, I have never dreaded working out, as every workout is something new, challenging, and fun. Also great because they cater to the beginner all the way through heavy lifters and professional athletes. The coaches are extremely invested in making sure all movements are taught correctly, something I was never getting before attending Crossfit. This is a great place!

Even if you dont think you can do this - do it anyway. A Boot Camp is an excellent intro. The community is amazing, and you wont believe how it makes you feel.My husband and I did Boot Camp 2.0, and decided to run through Boot Camp 3.0 before stepping up to a normal CrossFit membership. Just a few classes into Boot Camp 2.0, I knew this was something I wanted to keep doing.Theres no way around it - Im a large person. But thats okay. The workouts are scalable, and even if theres a movement I cant do, the coach can always find an alternative that is equally as beneficial to me.

I fully endorse Jesse Hilmandolar and Cross Fit Blacksburg. Jesse is an encyclopedia of fitness and nutrition knowledge. He is always very generous with his time and willing to offer advice.A few years ago my knees were killing me. I was logging a lot of miles jogging, but was sacrificing speed for distance. Jesse suggested that I run faster! While it seemed counterintuitive it actually worked. I switched to interval running, or just went a shorter distance at a faster speed. The pain went away almost immediately.Jesse e-mailed me some articles on running mechanics that were a little over my head. All I know is it worked and it was great advice.If you need fitness or nutrition advice, you will be in excellent hands at Cross Fit Blacksburg.

As a soft tissue manual therapist, the safety and effectiveness of an exercise is really important to me. Rob at Crossfit Blacksburg has exceeded my expectations in training me Fundamentals. At CFBB they want their customers to be educated and physically prepared before entering a group setting. Their goal is definitely to get you in shape, but not to get injured along the way.

If it gets much better than this box, Id be surprised!CFBB is full-on damned good: technically skilled coaches with a stunning ability to remember names, personal details, and individual abilities all located in a compact, but well appointed, box that is centrally located to everything in Blacksburg. The programming is solid, the equipment is in good shape, the coaches know what they are doing and can/will show you how to do it right, and the membership is all around friendly. If youre an experienced athlete, but new to crossfit, theyll sort you; if youre new to exercise, theyll sort you; if youre an experienced cross-fitter and want to get better, theyve got you covered, too.

I hesitantly tried out a 6-week boot camp with Coach Robert, and was won over very quickly by the results, positive life-coaching, and the community that was built over the 12 classes. I have continued taking classes 3x/week, and hope to keep seeing and feeling positive results from the classes and the support that the Trebel Wellness team provides.

I was completely out of my comfort zone when I first walked into this facility. Between fibromyalgia, injuries from a fall that left me with fake parts, plus all the typical aches and pains of aging, I figured the days of challenging myself at the gym were behind me. I couldnt have been more wrong. The program begins with one-on-one training, while your coach assesses your strengths and weaknesses, formulates a plan and then ultimately releases you to join the fitness classes. Again, being someone who typically favored working out alone, I have been pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere of encouragement and just plain fun with the other participants. Ive only been at it four months and am already doing things I never thought I could do again. The coaches make everyone feel important--nobody is ignored, regardless of their skill or fitness level. You could be a die-hard gym rat or a complete newbie to fitness, it doesnt matter, everyone is treated with the same level of respect.

My wife and I both joined Cross Fit Blacksburg at the beginning of the summer of 2013 (June I think?) and we are both highly enthusiastic about our experience. My wife is of a good weight and size for her height, but Ive been struggling with weight issues for a few years, and since joining, Ive noticed muscle and flexibility gains, and fat loss, along with positive changes to my mood and general outlook. My clothes all fit much better, and I am enjoying getting compliments. Best of all though, because Crossfit is all about constantly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity, you find you are never bored (because it is constantly varied), you will move better and safer in your daily life (because you will train functional movement done the RIGHT way, and because it is high intensity, the metabolic conditioning is usually for durations most anyone can manage with proper scaling (which the coaches are great about both encouraging, and teaching). Last but certainly not least, Ive found the community aspect of Crossfit Blacksburg is the best Ive experienced at a gym - the people are all friendly, you arent left alone to guess at what you are doing, you are taught to do everything safely, you participate with everyone else, and the group encourages each other to get through what are always challenging workouts. Id encourage anyone thinking about Cross Fit Blacksburg to try a boot camp, or talk to a coach and sign up.

For years, I cycled through different fitness efforts, only to end up injured from my chronic back and neck issues or unmotivated and bored. My 6 weeks in one-on-one fundamentals training was worth it. I walked in my first class not feeling completely lost and intimidated.The coaches at Crossfit Blacksburg are not only very qualified and motivating but constantly helping me evaluate my efforts either during class or during my personal training follow-up sessions (which THEY remind I have to schedule so I cant get away with skipping out of and are part of my membership, not extra!). The other folks in class never make me feel like they are better even if there are actual gymnasts in the gymnastics class. They are encouraging and fun. I havent felt this good about my physical health since I was in my 20s...I would (and regularly do!) highly recommend Crossfit Blacksburg to anyone who wants to be met and encouraged exactly where they are and to become #betterthanyesterday.

As a casual runner approaching age 30, I began looking for a workout that would reduce impact on my knees and compliment my running workout. When I was recommended to try Crossfit Blacksburg/Trebel School of Fitness by a trusted friend I knew I needed to try it out. When I first decided to try Trebel School of Fitness I was recovering from a knee cap that was subluxating on a regular basis which required me to wear a knee brace. After several months of trying Crossfit Blacksburg, I began building strength in my knee joint and my range of motion began to increase. The workouts at Crossfit Blacksburg are designed to allow for appropriate scaling for the individual needs of the client. After using these scaling options I was able to build up the smaller muscles surrounding the knee and increase my range of motion. After being in a knee brace for over 2 years following my subluxation, I was able to remove the knee brace and begin ordinary workouts after a year at Crossfit Blacksburg. My knees have never felt better and the individually designed workouts have increased my quality of life by reducing joint pain and improving mobility. All of the training staff are very knowledgeable and they go above and beyond to help each client improve. Joining the community at Crossfit Blacksburg/Trebel School of Fitness was one of the best decisions Ive made to increase my over-all health and wellbeing.

I had reservations about participating in CFBB boot camp. I had heard numerous rumors and with history of a knee injury went in a skeptic. Well now I am getting ready to finish my 2nd boot camp and going to join to continue working out at CFBB. Jesse and his interns are all fantastic and are willing to work with you to scale the work outs. They encourage scaling if needed and stress importance of not doing anything that might injure yourself. I have seen significant changes in my body shape since starting including almost down 2 pants sizes. I may have griped during the work out but the harder the work the more I had fun. I strongly encourage anyone considering the boot camp to give it a try.

Deciding to attend the Crossfit Bootcamp was the best decision I took regarding my health and fitness in the past 10 years. I always found working out in a gym boring and I couldnt stick to it for more than a few lessons. The bootcamp is fabulous: it keeps me engaged, it is demanding yet rewarding and the coaches and interns are the best. I wish the class was a bit smaller, but even with that many people I still get that personal attention that makes the difference. I will definitely keep doing this as a member or with the next bootcamp.
