      I have been a member for over a year. The trainers are professional, knowledgeable, and real. I personally have noticed positive changes in my physique. The trainers take the to time to learn the best movements for each client and they learn each clients goals personally and adapt the workouts individually. I have had multiple injuries (not from working out) and my trainer was able to adapt all my movements to not exasperate my injuries.

      Courage Fitness is an awesome gym! Even though I came to Durham under a very stressful life circumstances, Courage Fitness offered me a little piece of Heavens. The staff is super nice and friendly. Great place to workout with some many “toys” at my disposal. Another bonus Courage Fitness offers is a 24 hours 7 days a week gym access. Life saving!

      I started at Courage Fitness last year and I can’t say enough good things about them. They do a fantastic job of starting you off with learning proper weightlifting form and make sure throughout your training everyone is exercising efficiently and safely. The coaches are as entertaining as they are knowledgeable. It’s a great community; if you’re tired of other classes where everyone just works out and then goes home, this is the place for you.

      Courage is one of the most inclusive, friendly, and attentive gyms I’ve ever been to. Coaches pay attention to form and correct you during workouts; you’re never encouraged to work until you puke. I was about to move, and they worked with me to find a plan that would work for my short time horizon. The other gym-goers are friendly and fun to talk to as well. I’ve loved Courage and hope to never leave!

      I really enjoy being a member of courage fitness. All of the coaches are fantastic, and each bring their own flavor and personality to the work out. I like that I can join fixed classes, but the gym is open otherwise. It’s a great environment and atmosphere, and the staff and members are super welcoming to anyone.

      I couldn’t ask for a better experience at Courage Fitness. The atmosphere makes you actually want to show up to work out. Dave C. is an exceptional trainer who Is very knowledgeable and genuinely cares about maintaining enhancing your physical fitness. Everyone at the gym has a great energy.

      Courage fitness has a wonderful family atmosphere with amazing coaches, fantastic accountability, and no cookie-cutter training. Their focus is truly on providing the best plans, goals, and encouragement for each individual member. Your needs will not be overlooked at Courage Fitness.

      I love CFD. I’ve worked out there for over 13 years and this is a gym that’s grown with me and my life. I have the support and flexibility to lift on my own, and in different phases of my life I’ve taken different classes, coached, etc. At this point CFD is just a facet of my life as I pursue aging with muscle. The community is friendly and supportive of all people!

      Best quality fitness programming I’ve ever experienced. Physical Freedom is the goal, because it enables the kind of life I want to live. The culture is fun, healthy, respectful, and encouraging. The coaching is excellent. I’ve been training here for over ten years.

      While I love a good multifunctional open space to workout in, what I value most about Courage Fitness in Durham, NC is the energy of the people who show up everyday to run it, facilitate empowering workouts, and express genuine kindness beyond cultural barriers. It’s why I keep coming back…✨😘

      CFD is the best gym that I ever belong to. The workouts are challenging but doable. The coaches are by far the best in the world. They teach not dictate. And they care about your goals and progress. And the community is just amazing there.

      I’ve been going to CFD for ~6 years now and have loved it! The coaches are friendly, attentive, and effective in their methods, and for me the workout program works to help keep me in shape. I’d definitely recommend this gym!

      I signed up for a personal training package with Amer because I wanted to start integrating more strength training into my exercise routine but didn’t know where to start. Amer was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly – I loved that he explained the why behind the exercises we did, rather than just the what. At the end of our sessions, I left feeling so much less intimidated by strength training, more confident in my ability to build upper body strength, and ready to continue work on my own! Highly recommend working with Amer – and all of the staff at Courage was really helpful and welcoming, too.

      Love CrossFit Durham! The coaches are so helpful and welcoming. The gym is spacious, has plenty of equipment, and even has an outdoor area for safe socially distanced workouts. During the pandemic their community has been flexible in offering daily programming online, personalized with a coach. I can’t say enough great things about this gym!

If your looking to learn and grow and get in shape this is the place to be. The community is also great different types of people getting along just fine enjoying getting some fitness!

      Crossfit Durham is the place the go if you serious about getting results. The place is clean and the staff is knowledgeable. They took the time to show me proper form which is something I was lacking. I lost 17 lbs in 6 weeks and I am still going. 5 stars!

      Courage Fitness has changed my life! I joined in June 2018, and my only regret is that I didn’t do so sooner. I have not only reached all of the goals that I initially set out to achieve, but surpassed them in ways I never thought possible.

      The owner and coaches are incredible. They know how to motivate and encourage you, yet they also can modify any exercise to suit your fitness level or accommodate for limitations due to injury or any other issue. I’ve tried other places, but I’ll always stick with Courage Fitness. Check this place out-  CFD if absolutely the place to go!
