Richard Russell CrossFit Monterey Bay - Monterey, California

Very welcoming, with knowledgeable coaches. Big enough that you can do your own workout while a class is in session. I even picked up pointers on how to make my bar muscle ups easier.

I can't say enough about all the support Bruce and I get at Richard Russell Crossfit. We attend the Monterey Bay gym at 220 Dela Vina Ave. in Monterey, CA. We've been an official member since Feb 2021. We went from attending two days a week to four days a week and we're finding we are much more flexible, stronger and are building up stamina. We are both over 65 years of age and we encourage anyone of any age to join us for a great time! You don't have to be an Olympian athlete to join.
Sincerely, D & B Rowe

Months of physical therapy was getting me nowhere, it just wasn't enough to promote the muscle growth I needed to stabilize my spine and extremities. I was approaching 60 and not liking where things were headed. So in May '21, I turned to Richard Russell CrossFit Monterey Bay, and I'm so glad I did.

I get the most insightful and informative support from all the coaches--and especially Dallas--who has advanced training in kinesiology. The CrossFit workouts are so well-crafted and varied that you can't help but grow stronger. There are world-class athletes coaching and working out here and competing in national events. And they are eager to share their vast knowledge base on proper lifting techniques in every class, with helpful individual feedback on each member's form.

The management team Josh and KC (who also run a box at a winery in Soledad) enjoy putting on special events, holiday gatherings and organizing trips to other gym's events. There is a deep bench of talented coaching they draw on to run their classes and they are highly engaged with all of the membership.

It feels like I'm growing younger with each session. I'm now running again, hoisting weights overhead, climbing ropes, doing kipping pullups on the high bar like a gymnast. So many adventures in the outdoors are now possible. The other members here crack me up. And sometimes I laugh just for the joy of a good honest workout. I feel fortunate to be a part of this very special place.

I dropped-in here for a week while on a family vacation, and this CrossFit couldn’t have been nicer. The coaches were knowledgeable and the programming challenged me. The price was incredibly reasonable, and if I get the chance I will definitely be back!

I've been a member here since 2018 and recommend it for its knowledgeable, invested coaches. If you come through the door, you'll be encouraged at every step. Everyone is part of this gym's "in-group," and the community feeling sets Richard Russell Crossfit MB apart from other CF gyms. If you commit to coming consistently, you'll become stronger, more flexible, and faster. Guaranteed results, you cannot derive more value than that.

What a great gym & awesome people. We were visiting from Connecticut to run Big Sur. We wanted a good moving day and it was perfect. Highly recommend!
