restart fitness journey

I joined CrossFit Main Line for a short amount of time during a large gap in travel for work. Honestly couldn’t ask for a better community. The Coaches are amazing and put in so much effort to ensure everyones fitness goals are reached. Highly recommend to any and all fitness levels!

As is typical of my New Year’s resolutions, I decided in January I was going to start going to the gym. I assumed that like in previous years, I would be done going to the gym and back to my old habits within a month. So I join mainline CrossFit without much hope for it. 11 months later, I am hooked. It has changed my life not just physically, but mentally as well. And I think that all goes to the coaches and the other athletes. Everyone is so supportive, and scales things to your needs. I’ve felt part of a team from day one. So if you’re like me, and always intended to go to a gym, but never quite did so, give this a try. You won’t regret it.

After my gym shut down less than 2 months before my wedding, I was in a bind to find a new gym to push me and keep me motivated. CrossFit Main Line is exactly that. With a welcoming environment- both the coaches and the members- and a wide variety of workouts, I can certainly say I haven’t been bored! I am challenged every time I go there and I’m still learning new “moves.” I recommend CFML to gym newbies and experienced lifters alike!

Finding fitness after being a washed up former division one athlete was a very very difficult path for me. With hip issues from surgery and the fitness funk remaining from Covid I was looking for something new that could nurture my competitive edge and help me have fun while working out. CrossFit Mainline is the happiest place on earth for me! I love the environment and the competition that occurs within the gym. I also love that I am constantly encouraged to push myself and am in the best shape of my life after only 2 months. Every single coach is so knowledgeable and truly cares about your journey. Whether it’s Coach Jean reminding you to stretch, Coach April telling you to literally “just lift the bar lea” when I’m doubting my strength, or Chelsey giving you an extra shot of energy during your 5:30 am workout that will last you the entire day. I am so happy to have found my fitness home at CrossFit Mainline!!!

I have been looking a place like this for a long time, good and friendly place.Coach Brian is awesome.Do at your own if your new , no pressure, yet you will get an competitive mindset.Overall an full 1 hour of ME time where you get better physically and mentally each day passes.

Long review but I needed all these words to say how amazing this place is! I moved 600 miles away from home all the way to PA for school. Then I decided to stay the summer in PA all alone from my family and friends. It was hard. It was lonely. As a former athlete, retired from numerous injuries from a car accident and life, I hated working out alone and couldn’t find the motivation to train at the same intensity that I had known for the past 11 years. Then I joined CrossFit Mainline. I began to find a community and looked forward to going to work out at a high level every day with amazing coaches and amazing athletes that encouraged each other during every workout. The coaches are amazing, I’ve never been a huge morning person, but Chelsey’s 6:30 am workouts became a staple for me over the summer before I went to work. Coach Chelsey, Jean, April, Matt, Mark, Ray, Daniel— they work each day to make you better, They celebrate wins with you, and they encourage you to work harder and do better everyday … even when you don’t feel like it. When I was in a car accident this year, I texted coach April for a hold on my account, and she showered me with support and love – this place has become my family and my home away from home. During the school year now I go back and forth from morning classes to evenings. It’s the best stress relief, best workout, and best place to be. To summarize this, all I can say is JOIN!

Title: “Turning Slow into Strong: A Hilarious Gym Journey”Review:I stumbled into this gym a year ago, expecting nothing more than sore muscles and regret. Little did I know, I’d have the dream team of coaches—Chelsea, April, and Dan—turning my slow, 60-something self into a fitness legend.These coaches deserve medals for dealing with my groans and complaints, yet they somehow managed to keep the workouts entertaining. I’m convinced they’re part-time comedians. Despite being the tortoise in a class of hares, they never made me feel like I was holding up the fitness parade.I go three times a week, and trust me, convincing myself to leave the comfort of my bed is a daily battle. But, the energy in those classes, thanks to these fitness wizards, is worth the early morning struggle.Not only are they knowledgeable (I suspect they have PhDs in making workouts bearable), but they’ve also kept me injury-free. No serious injuries, sprains, or any embarrassing falls—just the occasional dramatic collapse after a particularly grueling set.So, here’s to Chelsea, April, and Dan, the architects of my slow and steady transformation. If they can turn this old-timer into a gym regular, they can work miracles for anyone. Highly recommend, especially if you enjoy your fitness with a side of laughter and a dash of self-deprecating humor!

Great gym! As a new member to CrossFit all of the coaches (Daniel, Chelsea and Kelli) have made me feel super welcomed right from the start. All the coaches and community are extremely helpful and friendly teaching all of the workout movements. Very happy with my decision to join CFML – Ardmore!

I’ve been doing CrossFit and loving it for the past 10 years! It’s brought me close to a community of people – friends as well as fitness.The coaches are amazing! They bring their energy and enthusiasm to the space, modify the work out to fit your needs, and help you get better and closer to your goals every day.Thanks to CrossFit, I am over 50 and in the best shape of my life!

Very knowledgeable coaches and kind people as well

I started doing Crossfit because my sister got me into it and if I can do it, anyone can! It’s the first thing I do in the morning ans it’s the best part of my day to kick off and it feels great with lots of energy.

Absolutely the coolest place in the area! Get ready for great workouts from the best coaches!💪🏻💯
