Incredible gym. I’m so happy I’ve made the decision to come here! I always have the best 45 minute work out of my life and am continuously pushed to strive for better. The coaches provide consistent and thorough feedback. I’ve learned so much from Jonathan and Lucy. Pretty sure this is the best shape I’ve been in, in my whole life and I’ve only just started. Thanks industrious!

Industrious is hands down the BEST at what they do! After moving out of the area from Industrious LYN 3 years ago I tried countless other gyms, programs, bootcamps, etc. and nothing even came close to the quality of experience that Industrious offers. From the fitness programming to the equipment everything is top notch, but what really sets Industrious apart are the Coaches. Every single time you walk in the door you feel welcomed, valued, and supported. The staff is truly invested in helping every member meet their individual goals and they do it by encouraging, challenging, and teaching you how to do your best and then make your best better! Literally the only downside is that once you try Industrious you will not be satisfied working out anywhere else again.

Industrious is a great gym. Fantastic and friendly coaching, tough but good workouts, beautiful facility. If I wasnt too far away (and have another great gym home) this would be my place.

To put into perspective, I’ve been doing “crossfit” for 8 years now, been through 4 different gyms, and have visited gyms all over the world. Industrious is an extremely professional well run gym and business. Management and coaches are always on same page, communicates with clientele extremely well, and is constantly looking for ways to improve the user experience. Programming is consistent and challenging, yet has something for everyone. The ambiance is very motivating! This has been particularly pertinent during the COVID19 pandemic, during which Industrious never and still hasn’t sat on their laurels. They have constantly adapted to the ever changing situations to make this probably one of the safest environments you can work out in during these difficult times. I believe the gym experience now is actually better than it was before the pandemic, and I’ve heard that from many athletes! Rock on Industrious!

TL;DR - Highly recommend!I joined INDUSTRIOUS in July of 2020, attending the SLU campus, and couldnt be happier. Not that I was in great shape before quarantine, but quarantine certainly didnt help. By July I was looking for a gym to kick my @$$ into gear, but given the restrictions, I wasnt sure what would be the best option, or what if anything was even open. After trying a couple CrossFit gyms, I joined INDUSTRIOUS. It is obvious that INDUSTRIOUS is going the extra mile to provide the best possible experience for their members within the current guidelines. I wouldnt say the price of membership is super competitive, at $200+ a month (Ive never paid anything near that for a gym membership before), but I think its commensurate with the Seattle market, if not a little cheaper than the nearby CrossFit gyms. Ultimately, its well worth the price.Regarding what a workout looks like, you show up for class on the hour and pick a halo (as King County requires you to have 300 sq. ft. of dedicated space for each member). Each halo has all of the equipment youll need for the workout, whether it be weights, bikes, rowers, runners, boxes, etc. You come in, pick a halo, warm up, hit the strength portion of the workout, bust @$$ in the conditioning portion of the workout, and youre out within the hour. All of the workouts are pre-programmed for you. Each hour/class has two dedicated coaches leading you through the movements and motivating you through the workout. All the coaches Ive had so far have been great and helpful. All of the equipment and floors are cleaned after every class. You wont find a cleaner gym.Regarding logistics, the earliest class is 5 AM, the latest is 7 PM. They have classes on the hour between then, except for 1 PM and 2 PM. The hourly class structure is very convenient. It certainly is annoying to have to reserve (often a day or two) ahead of time exactly when you want to work out, especially for someone like me who has an unpredictable work schedule. And, sometimes, the class that I want is full, so I have to join a wait list, and wont always make it on the list. But in the last few months, I can count on one hand the number of times I wasnt able to get a spot in my desired class time. This isnt their fault given the current restrictions. Since Ive joined, theyve expanded the number of halos in the gym, allowing more participants per class, and enabling more people to reserve their desired class time. INDUSTRIOUS is clearly doing the very best they can in the current circumstances, which is much appreciated.Id encourage anyone thinking about joining to do so, regardless of your age, fitness level, etc. Every workout can be scaled to your health and fitness level. Im a 29 y/o male, but had a stress fracture in my foot when I joined, a history of lumbar spine injuries, and broke a toe a couple months into joining (not at the gym). Im clearly a delicate little flower. But Ive been able to modify all the workouts around these issues, and still get a great workout every time. Ive seen a lot of progress even in 2.5 months. Regardless of your perceived limitations, even if youre older, prone to injuries, in terrible shape, etc., INDUSTRIOUS will help you reach your goals.

I have never experienced a more professional and organized fitness community. The staff at Industrious, from the owners down to the managers and coaches, have an unwavering commitment to quality and safety to ensure their members, ranging from very casual to elite athletes, receive the best possible experience.Whole reviews could be written about how well the gyms are designed and supplied with top notch equipment but anyone can buy equipment. You cant buy a consistent experience and Industrious delivers on that experience every single class.I cant recommend this community enough. Seasoned athlete, first timer, drop-in, it doesnt matter -- if you show up you wont disappointed. Theyll scale anything and everything as needed.

I love this gym! Their team is professional, motivating, safe, and helpful! They have put into practice a few measures that help to make group workouts feel safe during this time. Additionally they go over form each workout and are available to help during workouts. They also keep adding more class time options and their app is easy to use. It’s worth the price!!

By far the best gym in Seattle area! AMAZING programming that will push you to be a better athlete and also keep you safe and scale if needed.They were already incredibly clean, and ran incredibly well before the pandemic. And adjusted with equipment rentals with online programming, eventually making the gym accessible for members during such an uncertain time! The best coaches, I wouldnt be fair to pick a favorite because theyre all incredible. ❤⚒

Was in SEA for work and brought a few CF friends to tag along. We contacted a handful of boxes about dropping in. Understand we’re dealing with RONA, but Industrious was the only one to return our calls/emails. And we’re so happy that was the case, because it is probably one of the best facilities I’ve ever experienced. Only thing that could make it better is if they opened in San Diego. State of the art, super clean and boujie in a good way! Staff was extremely helpful and attentive to our needs. Five stars and then some.

I’ve dropped in to 30+ different functional fitness (formerly crossfit) gyms all over the world and been a sustained member at over a dozen - I feel confident in saying I’ve experienced many of the best and the worst. This is hands down the best run gym I’ve ever been to by a long shot. Highly professional, enthusiastic, and friendly staff, exceptional best-of-breed programming, top of the line equipment including ski ergs, c2 bikes, assault runners - enough for entire classes. Facilities are extremely well equipped and well kept. You simply won’t find a better run gym anywhere. The owners Molly and Steve run this gym with the utmost integrity and care for their members. I consider myself incredibly lucky to be a member here.

I love going to this gym. The classes are really fun and motivate you to work hard to stay fit. The coaches are always trying to help you have the best form and are great at teaching new people the crossfit style exercises. They are also practicing social distancing in the gym with a halo system where everyone gets their own set of equipment.

I have been at this gym for over a year. I think that tough times shows a gym’s true character. How Industrious has handled Covid has communicated how much they care and that we are all a big family. I definitely suggest checking it out. You will be very pleased with the warm welcome, professionalism, and they always remember your name!

The coaches are incredible! They know every person by name and clearly enjoy helping people out. The workouts are hard, but the coaches always offer scaling options so you feel comfortable. Industrious ability to quickly re-open during the pandemic and provide a safe space to workout has been phenomenal.

Industrious SLU far exceeds my expectations for a gym. From the experienced, attentive, and dedicated coaching staff, to the challenging programming, top quality equipment, efficient gym setup and business operations, I consider Industrious at the very top of their class. There is always a friendly smile greeting you at the door which sets the tone for your workout experience. The space is clean and the music is perfectly crafted to hit when you need it most. The community is friendly and welcoming to all skill levels.

Ive been going to Crossfit for a decade and been attending since the beginning of 2020. Industrious has impressed me with the quality of the coaching, the programming and facilities. Steven and his team have done an amazing job supporting the gym community through COVID, including lending out gear and publishing at home workouts.

Awesome crossfit center. The trainers are very helpful, supportive and the best part is that every session they teach the fundamentals of the movement that we would be doing before actually doing the workout.

I have visited and been a part of over 50 different Crossfit gyms and Industrious SLU is by far the best. Some of the key aspects that differentiate Industrious from others are, consistency, positive and friendly coaching, cleanliness and owners who are not scared to reinvest into the gym and its members.

CrossFit Industrious is by far the most customer centric box I have ever been to. Their customer experience is exceptional! The coaches are super friendly, knowledgeable and they always make us feel valued. The place is well maintained. We have been enjoying our membership so much and I would highly recommend CrossFit Industrious to everyone who wants to be part of a great community while maintaining a healthy life style!

Very grateful to John, Jeremey, and co-founder Stephen Hitt for their coaching and training programs. I have never been a real believer in CrossFit but Industrious won me over with their ability to adjust to COVID-19 while still providing excellent training. Highly recommended.

Did a drop-in here while on vacation in Seattle and LOVED it. Brand new gym with all brand new Rogue equipment. Nicest CrossFit gym we have ever been to. Coach Cassie was awesome; she had 3 busy classes back to back but kept the classes flowing smoothly and efficiently. Also loved that the price of a drop-in was a t-shirt, which my husband and I usually end up buying anyway when we do a drop-in somewhere! Thanks for an awesome experience, CF Industrious!

5 stars doesn’t even do it justice. I was on vacation in Seattle for a week and just happened to see this place next to my hotel. Huge shout out to Jeremy for letting me know about the “out of towner” pass and hooking up the 3 classes. Although I workout regularly, I had never done CrossFit before. But Jeremy, Andre, and Stephen were extremely friendly, welcoming, encouraging and motivating. They all went out of their way to ensure I was using proper technique; and they offered tips to improve my form along the way. Honestly have never seen that level of tremendous customer service at any gym. I can tell they really connect with their members. Oh yeah, and the music is great!Can’t say enough positive things about Industrious. Highly recommend anyone at any fitness level to give it a try. You won’t be disappointed. Wish I had another week here because I would sign up for another 3 classes! For those of you Seattle locals, don’t take this place for granted!Hope I see an Industrious pop up soon in the north suburban Chicago suburbs ;)

I dropped in for a class while on vacation and could not have had a better experience. The coaches are awesome, the facility is clean, the equipment is basically brand new, and everyone made me feel right at home. The WOD was great too; if youre in Seattle, this could be your box away from home!

I love this place. I’ve been doing CrossFit for about 6 years and it’s the best CrossFit box I’ve ever been to. It’s only been a little over 2 months that it’s been open but in that short period I feel like I’ve improved so much. The coaches are so helpful and really take the time to talk you through things and are always so positive, not to mention that the music is always BUMPIN’! Coming here is the best part of my day. Highly recommend for beginners and experienced CrossFitters alike.

I love them.The facility is super clean (Coach Steve-O was sweeping the sidewalk, lol), and beautiful. Equipment is high quality, well maintained, and organized very clearly. They have space for organized classes and a space for open gym/drop ins that you can use through out the day.I dropped in while Steve-O and Jeremy were coaching. Both of them are very knowledgeable and supportive coaches who make sure that everyone has a great class experience regardless of ability. No previous crossfit/fitness experience is necessary and they are more than willing to suggest appropriate scaling options.Also they’re apparel is super cute and the music is great!In full disclosure I’ve been a member of their Lynnwood location for about 5 years, but if I were a first timer I would give them 5 stars anyways because they run a tight ship and all of their staff are amazing (and I’ve dropped in at a fair number of places over the years) and if my experience at lynnwood is any indication you’ll have a great time!Check the website/download the app to check class times, or just give them a call, they’re really accessible.
