We joined over a year ago with no prior CrossFit experience. The coaches are amazing at teaching new skills, pushing you to achieve your specific goals, and promoting habits to stay injury free. The community is a staple of CFIH with every member being welcoming, supportive, and motivating for new members. If you are thinking about joining a gym, you will not find a better one in Fort Worth than Iron Horse.
The BEST community and coaching! Everyone truly cares about your growth not only as an athlete but as an individual. The people at CrossFit Iron Horse will help you become both physically and mentally fit and have helped push me to get better every day. Walking into a gym can feel daunting sometimes, but at CFIH you will immediately feel welcomed like family. You will definitely get stronger and healthier through working out, but at CrossFit Iron Horse you also get the benefit of a gym that puts community first-- and it makes a world of difference! If youre looking for a place to belong where you will be encouraged and challenged to grow, do yourself a favor and make it over to CrossFit Iron Horse, it truly is a one-of-a-kind place!
If you are new to CrossFit-like training and are not sure where to start, this is the place for you! The Iron Horse location and people are very welcoming and make you feel so comfortable. I have never (properly) used barbells in my life and was very nervous and hesitant to try something new. The onboarding lessons were very informative, and I instantly felt more comfortable. All the coaches do a fantastic job at going over the form and the different regressions and progressions of each exercise. 10/10 recommend if you’re looking for a workout family!
This gym is a rare find due to the fact that the QUALITY of the community, equipment, and coaches are all TOP NOTCH! Everyone has been so welcoming and going out of their way to come up to me and introduce themselves! The coaches are all very knowledgeable and each class they have shown that they want what is best for me. Candace has done a phenomenal job of fostering an incredible community and I would recommend this place to anyone looking to start their fitness journey.
I love this place! Im a former coach myself, but my foci now are training to stay healthy and being part of a mutually affirming, encouraging community here in Fort Worth. CF Iron Horse is absolutely the very best place to do that! The coaches are intentional, leadership is very communicative about what were doing and why and when, and everyone is committed to a sense of community & belonging.
I have been doing CrossFit for over 3 years now, and half of it has been at CrossFit Iron Horse. I can’t put into words what this place has done for me. Candice really cares about everyone and it shows. The coaching is amazing and the programming has purpose. If you are looking for a good quality gym to call home, this is the place to be!
Hands down one of the best gyms Ive been a part of! The owner, coaches and community make it feel like a family and truly motivate you to show up every day. The fact that they offer some free community classes makes it easy and low threat to go in and check it out. They not only care about fitness, but wellness in all aspects of the meaning. Anyone would be blessed to be a part of the CFIH family!
I dropped in for a few weeks while working in Fort Worth and really enjoyed working out here. Great layout and equipment. Coaches Jennie and Pierre were awesome. The other members were friendly, got plenty of fist-bumps while I was there. Very welcoming environment. Would highly recommend. Also, I like that the wod is posted the night before, kinda lets me know what to expect. I will miss this place
We dropped in for three days here and what an experience!! Programming was awesome and mindful of the Open approaching, the warm ups were movement specific for the WOD, and the vibes from the community were amazing. Each person we interacted with was approachable and helpful with all of our questions about the gym and town itself. Definitely looking forward to dropping in again in the future!
Excellent gym. Candice and crew have built a great community that took me in without hesitation. Formulaic classes with thorough warmups, challenging programming, and legitimate cool downs. They do a great job scaling for each athlete based on skills. I haven’t seen a better gym at bringing together new and old athletes alike with a diverse crowd of experience from moms and dads, professional business folks, and aspiring competitors. Love to be a part of the CFIH family!
I really enjoy the programming and community. The coaches are very knowledgeable and work with you through anything. I hurt my back early in the year and Candice was very helpful in getting me back in the swing of things. I would recommend this gym to anyone looking to better their mental and physical fitness.
CrossFit Iron Horse is the most welcoming and supportive gym I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing, where the knowledgeable and passionate coaches prioritise helping you better yourself both physically and mentally. I can’t recommend this gym enough and would encourage everyone looking for a gym to give it a try, no matter your fitness and skill level.
Crossfit Iron Horse is hands down the best gym Ive ever been to. Amazing community. The owner and coaches are all very friendly, and truly care about the members fitness, nutrition, and overall health. If you are looking to get started or want to challenge yourself more, I highly recommend Crossfit Iron Horse. Best in Fort Worth!
CFIH is THE BEST place to workout and live a healthier life in Fort Worth. The coaches are the best and it shows they really care about helping others get better each day. The Community is AMAZING. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make long lasting, positive lifestyle changes. This isnt just a place to work out. Its a place to learn to thrive. Go check them out!
After moving to Fort Worth from Midland we had to look for a new box for the first time since we started crossfit in 2012. Iron Horse is not only an incredible box it is hands down the most professional atmosphere, very hands on coaching from some of the best coaches we have every been coached by and great people. They made moving boxes an easy transition.
I love being a member of Crossfit Iron horse and the community it has to offer! It has been such a great experience and I am so thankful for the coaches. They get you working toward your specific goals, work with you closely learning new skills, and promote appropriate loading to avoid injury. 100% recommend!
If you are truly trying to get fit and healthy in a fun atmosphere, then crissfit iron horse is the place to check out. I have been a member here since 2018 and I can only say amazing things about this place. The coaching is top notch. The equipment is plentiful and in great condition. We all have fun here no matter what class time you attend. We are family. We are a crossfit community.
Ive been a member of CFIH for over two years now, and I have absolutely loved my experience. The coaching staff are excellent. The facilities are beautiful and spacious. I am also a huge fan of the programming and the in-house competitions that CFIH hosts several times a year. I am so grateful to be a part of the community here! 100/10 recommend.
I cannot say enough great things about CF Iron Horse! I was visiting Fort Worth from the Austin area for work for the week and dropped in for 2 classes and an open gym period during my stay. This is truly an amazing community that went above and beyond to make me feel welcome when I was at the gym. Coach/Owner Candice provides fun, challenging programming, great coaching and a very engaging class. Also special thank you to Coach Jennie and the 5:30 crew for being so incredibly welcoming and accommodating. If you are visiting or live in Fort Worth and are looking for a great gym and even better community to join then this is the place to go!
Welcoming and fun environment for all levels of athleticism and for those with none like me 🤣. I did the mentorship when I joined in Oct 2020 and loved the guidance it provided me! It made my first class WAY less intimidating, I actual knew what to expect. The coaches are always watching to ensure we are being safe and will provide guidance for success!
The staff are amazing. The coaches will help you on your journey both physically and mentally. They will correct your form unlike other facilities I’ve been to ,and pay extra attention if you are new. The community is so welcoming from the moment you walk through the door it’s a extremely positive environment 10/10 would definitely recommend.
CrossFit Iron Horse is without a doubt the best Gym in Fort Worth. The Owner, and her staff are top shelf, and it shows in everything they do. The programming(training) is thoughtful, challenging. They go out of their way to build in scaling options for athletes of every level from the green beginner to the top performing competitor. They even have a mentorship program for those who are new to CrossFit, and want to give it a try.It is easy to tell, that Candice and her Coaches really love what they do, and truly care about your well being, and the community of Fort Worth ,too. This place attracts fantastic members from all walks of life, many of which became good friends to our family. I would encourage anyone to give Iron Horse a try, you will not be dissapointed.
What do I say about Iron Horse Crossfit? Its a tall order. IH is an old school gym with no fancy equipment or no fancy locker rooms with saunas and towel service. Theres no juice bar and there are no tanning beds. Theres a professional coaching staff that work hard to hone their skills in order to better their members. Theres a program for WODs that constantly requires hard work and consistency. And, last but not least, theres a community where everyone will be welcomed and accepted. Its truly a place filled with extended family of all walks of life. I highly recommend IH to anyone interested in giving Crossfit a try.
I started with CF iron horse about a month ago and havent had a bad workout yet!I tend to get a little nervous starting at a new box but Candice and the other coaches are very welcoming and accommodating to your level while continuing to challenge all members.lastly, Im very appreciative of the covid precautions taken by the staff and other members.all around awesome gym!
So I’ve been at this box for about 2 years now. I’ve been in the CrossFit world for 8 years. First impressions 2 years ago, I was blown away with the care and respect I got from the coaches and members. This has been a place that I call home. Now fast forward 2 years, the owner has continued to listen to the members and their needs. They now offer physical therapy by a DTP. They have added ventilation to the showers and offer different programming. This place constantly blows me away with keeping up to date. I recommend you try here before anywhere else.
LOVE CrossFit Iron Horse! Candice does a terrific job of building community among the members, so no matter what, you never feel alone in your fitness journey. I was intimidated at first to get started, but 3 seconds after meeting my on-boarding instructorJennie, I felt right at home. I especially love how the classes are adapted to fit my needs while still challenging. If you are looking for a lovely and driven fitness home, CF Iron Horse is your place. YOU will feel welcomed and at home here.
I joined this gym in October to February (I had to leave for work) and can’t say enough how wonderful everyone here is. I thought CrossFit had this stigma attached to it, but that was completely the opposite at CFIH; everyone was extremely open and friendly. Candice, the owner, was very helpful and clearly knows what she is doing. All the coaches ensure you are well taken care if and receive a quality workout ever time. Thanks, Andy, for coaching me and being a good friend.
I just recently became a member of CFIH! And let me tell ya; this place is the bees knees! The bomb diggity! The place to be, for everything CrossFit in Ft. Worth! I have been doing CrossFit for a little over 2 years now. I used to train at another Ft. Worth location and started to feel like ownership wasn’t invested in running that facility. It started to effect the members tremendously and that’s when I decided to come try Iron Horse. I immediately feel in love with the coaches, members, facility, ownership, and most importantly how important community meant to Iron Horse! I highly recommend anyone and everyone to come to Iron Horse! Beginners and professionals alike! This is the CrossFit mecca in Ft. Worth and I’m so happy to be a part of the community!
I was a transplant from Minnesota and the staff and members made me feel like family. Coach Candice writes excellent programming for the members and if you need a bit more of a challenge individual programming is available. The coaching staff is warm and welcoming, and most importantly SAFE and highly knowledgeable about proper body mechanics. HUGE space with everything the novice to elite crossfitter could want. If you’re looking for a competitive class time, I’d go to 11:30, 4:30, or 5:30. There are some very good athletes at those times (as well as other class times). I checked out several other gyms in the area and this is hands down the best in the Fort Worth area. Dog friendly. Fitaid and ascent protein I believe if you’re looking for a post WOD boost
Coach Candace took me on as an out of Town drop in while I was still on Active Duty.. Every time I came back to DFW, Candace and her Ironhorse crew welcomed me back and I couldnt be more Thankful for their kindness and professionalism. I would give them 25 Stars if it was possible, you owe it to yourself to go check out Ironhorse!!!
After doing research and looking into the various boxes around Fort Worth, I ended up choosing Iron Horse and Im glad I did! Went there for almost a year and loved it. Coaches were awesome and very personable. All the athletes were easy to get along with and helped push you when you needed it. Jason, one of the owners, is super helpful with anything you may need. I high recommend this box to any one in Fort Worth. Hands down one of the best I have been to!
I have been a member of Iron Horse for quite a few months now, but I haven’t gone as much as I like because I have crippling anxiety. However, the coaches check in on me regularly, make sure I’m OK, and remind me that they are here for me now and for when I’m ready. (I had a horrible experience at another local CrossFit box for my first time, and this is why I get nervous.)However, the times I’ve been to Iron Horse, it’s been nothing but amazing — I leave and feel mentally and physically great and my day is so much better. The coaches are patient and work with people of all sizes and experience. They know I’m nervous because I’m out of shape, don’t know how to use equipment, and they tailor workouts to get the best results for the current shape I’m in. In short, they care a lot about their members. (Google, bold that “a lot” for me, please.)I just signed up for three more months and going to start going back and so excited because I’ve spoken to all coaches and all are just great and reminded me that it’s OK to start slow — this box wants everyone to succeed at the best pace they can. Again, the coaches are so patient, and that is so important for un-athletic, out of shape, and self-conscious people like me. To really bring it home one more time, this place is for everyone. It doesnt matter your skill, the coaches are A+ and teaching you in a SAFE manner. They also care emphatically about safety, which most boxes dont.I give this box 5 out of 5 burpees. Cannot recommend enough. CrossFit Iron Horse is for YOU.
I have been a member for 9 months now. Since day 1 I have had an incredible experience. When I started it was only the third class I had ever taken. I was treated with the same respect as someone who had been coming to CFIH for years. My on-ramps prepared me with everything I needed to begin Crossfit.Everyone is so encouraging and welcoming & I CANNOT imagine ever working out anywhere else, or with anyone else. The staff is untouchable and I highly recommend beginning your Crossfit journey here!I STILL have butterflies of excitement walking in everyday! WOOHOO.
CFIH has an amazing staff. The facility is top notch and constantly being improved upon. The members will make you feel welcome from day one.If you’re looking for a place to improve your overall well being (fitness, nutrition, mentality and more), look no further than CFIH.
Quite frankly, the best gym experience Ive ever had.Great energy, great intensity, knowledgeable and caring coaches, friendly community, military friendly, lots of space, plenty of weights and equipment, Open Gym time, huge pull up rack, and a fully equipped outdoor training area.Oh and Coach Candice Wagner headed to the 2016 Games! Ooh Rah!!
One of the best experience I’ve ever went through! Motivation.. encouragement .. community atmosphere and hard working ! You guys being a great help and start to switch my sedentary lifestyle to healthy active lifestyle! Keep it up team! Special thanks to all the coaches especially Candice, Jennie and Adonys 💪🏼🙏🏻Be patience, trust the process and follow their guidances!HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
My 2 workout partners and I started CFIH about 10 weeks ago. We tried a few boxes in the area and felt right at home immediately when we came to a community class at CFIH. The coaches/owners are motivating and are there every step of the way to ensure that you are doing everything in proper form. They even have an awesome massage therapist on site! Every member we have encountered have been nothing but super supportive and are there to cheer you on. Its like having another family to come to each day and we always look forward to see what the workout of the day is. Come by one Saturday and try out the community class, youll be hooked for life!
Ive been going to Iron Horse for about a year and a half. It was my first crossfit experience and easily my best. I tried a couple of Dallas boxes when I moved there for a few months and they were decent but I couldnt wait to move back to FW and workout at Iron Horse. The coaches are super supportive and knowledgeable. Just look at their workout programming on their website. Ive been to other boxes that just throw workouts out at you to destroy your body, no idea of progression or strength improvement. Since starting crossfit at IH, my strength has gone way up, Ive learned how to Oly lift (not an expert but comfortable), Ive done 2 Tough Mudders and am planning a triathlon down the line. Everyone is very encouraging and helpful. Ive never been one for group training but Iron Horse has changed that for me. The community is great: a supportive, funny facebook members group, in-house competitions, social events. I definitely recommend them.
It is the best crossfit in the city, and if it is not the best in the whole country I am very sure it is in Texas, surrounded by warm people and trainers who make you feel at home when you arrive, and above all, who drive you to improve, crossfit Iron has well its values and principles by which they are made, without a doubt the best community (I love you candice im your fan!)
The amenities and coaches are one of the best in town. They have a good variety of equipment and space. Coaches are friendly and fun.I travel a lot and was trying to figure out my best membership option but I havent been able to get ahold of management, which is why I am giving it 4 starts.
Attended the 0600 class. The facility is large and inviting. The coaches were encouraging and knowledgeable. They delivered their message with clarity and were engaged throughout the class time. The members were very friendly and welcoming. Class ran according to schedule and was structured without feeling pressured for time. I had an excellent experience and would definitely come back again!
Ive been going to Iron Horse since Janurary 12. I was considering between Iron Horse and a BJJ/Sub Wrestling gym in Mansfield. I chose Iron Horse precisely because the finance side was so transparent, you should see the binders of contracts and deal packages some guys pull out. Iron Horse is anything but shady and Id hate for one bad experience to leave that impression on google. This place is an old-school gym filled with good people putting work in, thats it and its perfect.

2022-08-31I’ve been going to CrossFit Iron Horse on and off for a number of years now and I would have to say they are one of the top gyms in Fort Worth. There’s top notch coaching, consistency amongst the coaches, and programming with a purpose. The facility is unlike an other and they have the best equipment money can buy. The equipment is plentiful and they are always investing to keep it up to the highest standards. Candice, Josh and team Iron Horse, thank you!

2021-12-14I started at CFIH around September and instantly I knew I would love it here. The coaches are spectacular and pay attention to each members growth, technique, and involvement in the gym. They are very personable and are a joy to speak with when I am trying to perfect a move or become better.The classes are challenging but after you know you gave your all and will be better for it. The coaches definitely push you to keep fighting when it gets tough as well.I can truly say I enjoy CrossFit because of this gym experience and I wouldnt change it for the world.

2021-12-17I have attended many CrossFit gyms either as a member or a drop in and this one is by far the best! I have been a member since late 2019. The gym is very organized with scheduling, equipment and communication updates. Candice the owner truly takes ownership in ensuring her members have quality workouts lead by quality coaches that care. The coaches are very thorough when reviewing the form of movement and super attentive during the workout to ensure safety. This gym really feels like a community and I’m proud to represent them! Oh let’s not forget….it’s SO CLEAN!

2022-04-08After 2 years removed from truly working out and a move cross country; I was looking for a place that knew what they were doing with CrossFit. I was looking for a place where the coaches cared about their athletes. I was looking for a place where the members cared about each other.I want to say thank you to CrossFit Iron Horse. This place is amazing! They challenge me daily and truly care about my fitness.You need to check this place out - it’s a must even if you’re just visiting.

2022-06-10CrossFit Iron Horse is going to be very difficult to match or top when I rotate duty stations. This organization is 1000% worth the cost and the staff are more than qualified. The atmosphere and program cant be beat. Sign up if you can and stop “thinking about it” like I did for so long.

2022-07-30The travel associated with my job has allowed me to visit a ton of CrossFit affiliates around the country. I can confidently say that it is the welcoming community of athletes, top level programming, and attention to the little things that make Iron Horse truly stand out from the rest. I’m proud to call it home!
