Tarheel CrossFit - Gym & Fitness

It was great! Hi energy, welcoming, would recommend

Sam is always great, especially his efforts in the cognitive space!

Going into a new gym, especially a CrossFit one can be really intimidating but Sam made me feel welcomed instantly, and was so knowledgeable on every movement. He explained things clearly and had great energy the whole workout. I’m really glad he was my first introduction and coach at Tarheel, as he made it an awesome experience!! Thank you!

Coach Francisco was a fantastic coach. He was very attentive to a drop in guest, especially on a banded bench press strength workout as a spotter. Thanks for the push tonight during the met-con.

Nate was very welcoming and easy to learn from, good sales pitch to join the gym so I did. Gold stars to Nate! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Well conducted, great time management and transitions. I appreciate the correction on my form. Looking forward to the next class with you! - Jon

Excellent coach. He explains movements clearly, catches form issues, and makes sure we are training the right way. Because of his dedication and motivation, I’ve gotten stronger and more confident in CrossFit. The culture in the gym is unmatched.

Nate does an awesome job of breaking down the movements and then demonstrating the movements. He also helps me a lot by critiquing my movements and giving positive feedback when executing properly. He always has a lot of energy and is positive be around in the gym.

First time working with Francisco and really enjoyed the class! He had great energy, was very supportive, and had an awesome playlist!

Toni was motivating and called out people for putting in hard work. It was my first time at a cross fit gym and I felt very welcomed and there was no pressure to be great at everything!

Very great Coach well run class. Kept energy high and people moving!

The coach was accommodating even when I overworked myself during the workout. I felt embarrassed because I was pushing too much, but he stayed calm and encouraging throughout. Instead of pushing me harder, he carefully guided me to take baby steps, suggesting modifications and checking in on how I was feeling. That patient approach made me feel supported rather than judged, which mattered a lot in keeping me motivated to keep coming back. His ability to recognize when I needed to slow down without losing momentum showed real attentiveness and care. It turned what could have been a discouraging experience at Tarheel CrossFit - Gym & Fitness into one where I felt empowered to improve at my own pace.

Nit picking but since about a third of the class didn’t understand the run portion maybe write it down or explain it differently. Great class though.

He did great pushing me to go further and push myself harder

Awesome class Nate!!!

Minor non intrusive coaching was distributed with positive feedback given for adjustments.

THCF has been a great and welcoming community. My fiancé and I are new to the area and CrossFit. Both the coaches and members have been kind and supportive. Coach Deb was very knowledgeable, motivating and encouraging while kicking our butts with a great workout! We’re excited to see our progress with THCF.

Thanks Jeremiah for helping me improve my overhead squat. I feel more confident because of your coaching.

Tarheel has probably helped saved my mental health more than anything else. It’s a place that welcomes you in with open arms no matter your fitness level. There is accountability and leadership all over the building which allows you to grow. Give it a shot, you’ll keep coming back.

Toni is an awesome coach! Great warm-up and encouragement throughout workout. Keep it up Toni C!!

Friendly and knowledgeable

I honestly love the Tarheel Xfit gym. I live two houses down and have 24hr access to workout. You guys are amazing and thank you for what you do. ☮️♥️💡

I am traveling this week, but Coach Justin keeps me motivated and on track by providing workouts. Each workout comes with the specific exercises, the rep schemes, so that I’m challenged in the right way without feeling overwhelmed or unsure. Even from a distance, I feel deeply connected to Tarheel CrossFit - Gym & Fitness. On days when my motivation dips, the community encouragement pushes me to keep going instead of giving in. Having that thoughtful structure and consistent support makes it so much easier to maintain my progress and stay focused despite being away from the gym. It’s reassuring to know I’m not just working out blindly but following a plan that adapts to me wherever I am.

Jeremiah was great! He gave feedback on scaling options to make intimidating exercises more approachable without losing sight of long term the progression 😁

Amy does a great job teaching and helping us scale as needed. Amy is a positive coach and she’s funny which makes class fun! I look forward to the classes I see her coaching.

It was great

First crossfit workout since knee replacement June 13. Sam aligns the workout to your ability but ensures each individual is challenged. Good coach and always encouraging!

Coach Nate has been super welcoming and helpful, with a big emphasis on form and safety. Good vibes from the entire gym!

Coach Jeremiah had everything setup prior to class starting, remained engaged with the whole class, and helped individuals make adjustments as needed. He methodically demonstrated the movements to make completing each phase of the session quite easy. He did a great job.

Nate did a great job coaching today at Tarheel CrossFit - Gym & Fitness! He was very intentional with every movement, taking the time to carefully demonstrate proper form before we started the workout. During the warm-up, he guided us through each exercise with clear explanations of why they mattered, which helped me understand how to prepare my body properly and avoid injury. Throughout the workout, Nate gave great feedback - he closely observed my posture and immediately noticed when it was off. He helped me adjust my stance by repositioning my feet and aligning my shoulders, which made the exercises feel more effective and much safer. His attention to these details kept me focused and motivated the entire time, making it easy to push myself without losing form. By the end of the session, I left feeling like I had really improved, not just gone through the motions. There was a real sense of progress in my strength and technique that I hadn’t experienced in other workouts. Nate’s coaching made the difference between a routine session and one where I felt genuinely challenged and accomplished.

Deb runs an amazing class from warm up to cool down. Movement demonstration, feedback and corrections are all on point! Would highly recommend attending her classes along with the other classes at Tarheel CF.

Deb is always fantastic! Very thorough and gives each athlete attention and feedback. Gives great coaching cues and pushes you to be better. She's the reason we chose the class today.

Coach (Amy) always does an awesome job, she pushes everyone to give their best while still keeping form and safety. She takes time to explain each movement clearly and gives helpful tips on techniques.

Great help for my first class back postpartum thanks Sam!

Sam is extremely supportive and very knowledgeable, particularly regarding proper form and any needed modifications. He’s a great coach, and natural educator, and the feedback throughout the workout was very helpful.

Great coach and very knowledgeable! He does an incredible job at making sure everyone can scale appropriately and can make corrections on the spot.

Amy was absolutely fantastic today! She brought so much energy and enthusiasm to the class, which made the workout fun and motivating from start to finish. She was incredibly attentive, taking the time to watch everyone’s form and offering helpful corrections and encouragement throughout the session. I really appreciated how helpful and supportive she was. She also made sure each athlete got exactly the guidance they needed. Amy’s positivity and attention to detail truly made a difference.

Coach Deb was awesome. Great energy genuinely caring about each person's progress. Coach Justin and assistant Fransisco were amazing. They kept a gentle watchful eye on both my lovely spouse and I the whole time. We were looking for a place to be able to train to get back into shape. The website and wording had an inviting vibe to it. So we booked our intro class. We were not disappointed at all. It was all we hoped for and more. The facility is nicely equipped. There are other amenities as well like a cool juice bar. The class itself was top notch. Even though there was a general curriculum everyone worked at their own level. Ideas were encouraged but not forced. If anyone is looking to get in shape in the Fayetteville region you have to check out Tarheel Crossfit. Two thumbs way up. Thank you Justin for your vision. John K.

Jeremiah was great! He was supportive of the whole class and pushed us to finish strong. Great workout! Thanks Jeremiah!

Jeremiah was welcoming and supportive. I got the right amount of push and wasn’t made to feel like I shouldn’t be there. I feel great after my first workout!!

It was very fun and easy to scale I have never done any CrossFit and I was not overwhelmed at all.

Great class! Sam walked through the warm ups and the exercises and equipment needed. Kept track of time and did a great cool down stretch.

Amy was so kind and thorough with the movements during this class. She went into great detail about each movement. She was pushing us all the way from beginning to the end!

I had a very fun and productive work out! First time and will be coming back!

Nate is always helpful at instructing technique and motivating through the toughest workouts. He was the first coach I worked with and one of the biggest motivators to continue coming back.

He was awesome! He greeted me at the front door and asked me what my name was. He also had asked me my Crossfit experience and if I needed help. He was very attentive during the class.

Joe always has an excellent job making everyone feel included in the class. He has a positive attitude, but no nonsense approach to ensuring that we finish the exercises in a safe and productive way . hands-down favorite coach.

Very welcoming! Gave great feedback and made sure I knew what I was doing without making me feel overwhelmed. Sam’s a great coach!

Extremely helpful and takes the time with everyone to make sure everyone is doing the movements safely

Samuel was great and did a great job at catering and scaling down the workout to match everyone’s level of fitness

Coach Sam is an experienced and well-rounded coach. He offers scaled options for each athlete and ensures proper form.

Great Class! The coach was super helpful, kind, motivating, and knowledgeable. They made sure everyone felt comfortable, no matter their skill level. I really enjoyed the class and felt supported the whole time and with everyone there.

Great coach! Motivating and knowledgeable!

Great first class! Toni was clear, supportive, and explained everything really well. I especially appreciated that she made the effort to learn and pronounce everyone’s name correctly—it made the class feel welcoming and personal. Looking forward to more sessions!

Great energy

Great programming and friendly and helpful coach and members.

Great experience and I would definitely recommend. Sam was super helpful and provided the right level of motivation!

You can always count on Coach Joe for motivation!

Fucking amazing everyone fucking cares and pushes you to your max and it’s so rewarding will recommend to anyone amazing fucking coach ( Nate Deal)

Thanks for the great intro, instruction and motivation. That was my first CrossFit experience and you definitely made me feel welcome. Great workout 🤘

Great drills for OH squat. No coach has ever drilled that bar needs to go back behind head a bit when you squat. Watched all athletes mechanics and form. Modified for PP needs 🤗

Amazing class today!!!

Deb was great! She gave encouragement and alternative workouts to help me reach my goals.

No constructive criticism. I used to train under a USA Strength and Conditioning hall of fame strength and conditioning coach at VT, Mike Gentry, and with NBA strength coaches. Your attention to detail, instruction, and motivation is at this same level. We truly appreciate you.

As always, Nate makes the class fun and is extremely knowledgeable. He’s a must go to class for Tarheel

Bro man crushed it

Is always fun

Very knowledgeable about the sport and always has great energy when it comes to pushing/coaching you through a workout. 1 of 1 🙏🏽

I enjoyed how in depth we went into running form, as I felt like I learned how to run more efficiently.

Taylor was great. It was my first day. She walked me through everything and encouraged me through out the workouts. I felt heard and seen which was great.

Excellent job explaining complex movements and helping with fine-tuning recommendations to avoid injury and improve performance. Highly recommend Sam!

Great Coach

Excellent class flow. Took the time to explain each exercise while also offering tips for success. Kept an eye on everyone’s form and maintained motivation.

Coach Sam helped coach me through increasing weight and getting better at the jump rope!

11/10 coaching. Informative and fun classes

Amy was a great coach, she has a infectious positive energy and helped identify areas that I can improve on!

Great!

Kirill is a kickass coach. He engages with the members which promotes having a comfortable and fun experience, for both new and existing members! He explains the program well and prioritizes safety above all. He is a great coach and it is a pleasure having him coach THCF South!!!

Sam is awesome and truly obe the best coaches I’ve had the pleasure to work with. Always very clear, concise, motivating, and a great mentor and each class. Looking forward to getting coached by Sam more!

Sam is a great Coach! He takes the time to explain each movement correctly, making sure I do it safely and effectively. I feel confident and comfortable knowing he is always there to guide me. Thank you for all you do!😀

Taylor has such high energy and is very encouraging! She makes you feel comfortable with doing what is best for you whether to push yourself or scale the workout. Definitely felt motivated!

Sam makes sure to check in frequently with each athlete, ensuring everyone has the appropriate modifications for their specific needs while still encouraging them to be challenged.

Solid coaching but could use some work on DJ skills. Isn’t that a part of the Level 1 cert 😂😂😂

Deb is great! Never have I had a coach who consistently corrects the detailed positioning in my lifts and gymnastic movements. She also just brings a great attitude to class every time.

I love going to Nate’s classes! He always has a positive attitude and gives good coaching advice. Great with time management. Cant recommend enough!!

Incredibly knowledgeable, fun, entertaining, effective, and always locked on for getting the team better. Never has an “off day.

Great and relevant warm up, very informative coaching and scalable options.

My first time doing CrossFit. The coach was supportive and I was as able to do things I have never done before. Everyone seemed nice!

Time management and breakdown was awesome!

Deb was amazing

He kept me motivated without pushing me too much!

Of course! Here’s a concise version of your review: **Exceptional CrossFit Coach – Coach Nate** Coach Nate is an outstanding coach who blends expert movement mechanics, precise form correction, and motivating energy. He meets athletes where they are while pushing them to achieve their best. Highly recommend!

They did an excellent job of breaking down the workout and took time to show us what the workout looked like for the day.

He was great! Very helpful and informative

Knowledgeable and easy to talk too

It was a great experience! It was a big class with a fair amount of instruction and equipment required, so the coach did a great job breaking it down for inexperienced cross fitters. She also managed to socialize with me as a drop in, which was really nice. I would definitely go back to this gym next time I’m in town.

Krill was super helpful and explained every movement in detail. Great first experience

G2G, quality coaching

Stormie is awesome at coaching proper lifting techniques and encouraging everyone while going through a grueling workout.

10/10 coach and 10/10 sass. Will come again

Wealthy of knowledge! Excellent coaching every time

Deb was bad!
