“There are a lot of reasons why I love Patriot CrossFit but the main one is the community. From the start, I have felt welcomed and supported. I have made some amazing friendships that go beyond just the hour WOD. I am pushed everyday to be the best version of myself. Whether that’s getting a PR or just showing up to move my body. I leave feeling energized by the community, knowing I did something great for myself, and that is why I value my time spent at PCF.”

“I’ve been a member of the Patriot family for almost 5 years now...The coaches cultivated my development as a strength athlete with one on one attention and helpful cues and guidance...In addition to growing me as an athlete, Patriot has become a community of support and friendship. On my wedding day, they programmed a special workout for my husband and I and allowed us to invite much of our family and friends to drop in and do the workout with us...Before joining Patriot, going to the gym was a chore. Now, it’s one of the things I look forward to the most each day.””

“This community has me looking forward to coming to class as we cheer each other on and lift each other up even when the workout for the day did not go our way. I am the strongest I have ever been even as I have gotten older thanks to the programming, coaching and guidance the staff at Patriot brings. Patriot CrossFit is a great atmosphere to de-stress from work and everyday life. ”

“I joined Patriot earlier this year. I had never done CrossFit and am in my late 40’s. I was a little apprehensive (shouldn’t I just take up pickleball like my friends), but from the moment I walked through the doors I felt welcomed by the coaches and the community....I can’t say enough good things about Patriot, the coaches and the community that makes this a very special place.”

“When I first moved to Arlington, I dropped in at every Crossfit gym in the area, ultimately deciding that Patriot was the best fit. As I approach 10 years at the gym, this decision continues to pay off as I have gotten consistently stronger and continued to improve my overall fitness. Patriot’s coaching staff is knowledgeable and eager to help athletes improve and its members are friendly and always happy to welcome new faces; I count many members among my closest friends. I look forward to what my next decade at Patriot will bring!”

“Walking into Patriot 4 years ago was one of the best things I ever did! I am stronger than I have ever been and also learning (and enjoying the process of learning) complex gymnastics movements and oly lifts. The programming is unmatched and the coaches are incredible at teaching and appropriately modifying workouts to accommodate individual needs. But Patriot is much more than just this, it is a community of incredible athletes who support one another. I have never met such a competitive and also friendly group of people. Whatever your goals are, competing in local events, mastering gymnastics moves, or just having fun getting stronger with friends, Patriot has the programming and coaches to get you there. I am happy to call Patriot my second home.”
