When I left my Vancouver CrossFit gym, I was worried that I wouldn't enjoy CrossFit as much being away from my home gym. I was so so so wrong. It took no time at all for me to feel like I was part of their community, and I ended up realizing that Barracks had everything I needed plus more. I can vividly remember my first day, being welcomed by everyone and seeing many friendly faces. You can see the heart and soul that Eric and Christi put into the gym, including selecting coaches that genuinely care about the athletes, top of the line programming, and having the best equipment and a clean gym. If your looking for a CrossFit gym that will help you reach your fitness goals, and also looking to create some friendships, then Barracks is the place for you. I have always felt so supported here and would recommend this gym to anyone.

I can't say enough about this gym. I was hesitant to join Crossfit from misconceptions I'd heard in the past, but I was encouraged by the team at CrossFit CB that everything can be scaled into an incredible workout. The coaches are incredibly attentive, the workouts are challenging but not impossible, and most of all, it's a fun experience and great workout each time I go. Not having to plan my own workouts is priceless. I started when I was 2 months post partum, and the coaches were attentive to helping me change and scale movements to suit my unique needs. I'm now 5 months pregnant and the coaches watch my movements carefully and help me adjust the workouts as needed. This is a friendly gym which welcomes people of all shapes, sizes, and skill levels and I couldn't recommend it more highly.

I’ve been a member here for 8 years and they just keep getting better and better! While travelling I have dropped in on many CrossFit gyms over the years and I always come to the same conclusion - Barracks Fitness is the best gym I’ve ever been to. The coaches are excellent, they are well-trained and happy to give great tips. The community is full of awesome and welcoming people. And all of this is made possible by phenomenal owners, Eric and Christi. They truly care about their members and this year they have bent over backwards to accommodate and ensure their members are staying fit (and sane). If you are in the market for a new gym do not hesitate to try it out!

Joined this CFCB in 2016 after researching a few other gyms and really liked the credentials the Barbers and other coaches experience. 4 years later, I can say this place is absolutely phenomenal!!! I've done things I never imagined in a gym like handstand pushups, pull-ups or running 5km. This is all due to great coaching and programming from the Barbers and the entire coaching staff!! The amount of events that CFCB puts on - Battle, Affiliate challenges, Intramural open is amazing, the community here is amazing, the friends I have made are amazing.. 10/10 recommend to everyone. Including dogs.

  • Nelson Yarmoloy

I procrastinated joining this gym for 3 years, and definitely regret not joining sooner. You won't find a better group of coaches and great people to work out with and have fun with. I joined this gym to get back in shape after a couple years of sedentary living, and have been seeing constant improvements in my strength and cardio. The workouts have also helped remedy my nagging back and knee issues that I have had for the past 4 years, which is amazing! I would highly recommend this gym to anyone who is looking to learn something new, get into/back in shape, or just to meet some awesome people.

  • Jennifer Beck

Barracks Fitness (Crossfit Currie Barracks) is an excellent facility for anyone looking for a new gym! I’m not a member here as it’s a little far from home, but have attended a few competitions held at this location. I’ve seen Christi and Eric in action during comps with SEVERAL people in their building. They operate a clean, well equipped, efficient gym. I’ve met a few members of their community and they made me feel welcomed and like one of their own. I’d highly recommend Barracks Fitness to anyone!

  • Brendan Wearne

This is not a standard Crossfit gym! I've been to gyms all over the world and honestly the community, programming, quality of coaching and flexibility shown during headwinds (insert COVID) is hands down the best I've seen. Eric and Christie genuinely appreciate every member. If you're willing to put in the work BF offer competition programming. If you've at the other end of the spectrum and want to just turn up, catch up on the goss and get your sweat on the classes cater for this as well.

  • Karlee Anton

Give this gym a shot! The workouts are fun, the atmosphere is encouraging, you'll be supported through your progress, it's squeaky clean, and the coaches are always making sure you're safe and moving correctly. Eric and Christi are awesome people, as well, and work to make a positive impact in their community. And for those that would like to hone their skills, compete, or just want to carry more bags of groceries in at one time, there's extra programming to get you there.

  • Diane Sarro

Don't let age, mobility, flexibility or ability stop you from participating in Crossfit, especially at Barracks Fitness. Starting with the owners, Eric and Christi, and continuing with the amazing Coaches, you will receive knowledgable assistance to perform all movements safely - plus the encouragement to achieve your personal best. And most importantly, it's a fun environment to workout with the Barracks Fitness Family!

  • Mustafa Al-Jaibaji

Best functional fitness box in town! I've been to multiple boxes in town and Currie Barracks is one of the cleanest, safeest I've been to. The coaches accomediate all fitness levels and will help you achieve your goals. During COVID the coaches set each member with marked " personal space" with all the equipment set up and cleaned and class times are spaced out to reduce traffic. Definitely worth the investment.

  • Acadian Hanuman

Just started working out here within the month with my daughter. It's like getting a present every day, you never know what the workout will be and everyone is super helpful. We are already seeing major gains in our strength and cardio. Teens can get their classes in a few times during the week and adults work out in a different room, so we can both get our workout in at the same time.

  • Trisha Terns

I did a drop in, they were super responsive. Out in middle of no where (as most crossfit gyms are) but when you walked in there was such a great atmosphere. Day before Thanksgiving and tons of people there having fun and in high spirits. Super fun and welcoming crew to me. Coach Fitz was great, good personality and made the class fun. I would recommend to anyone!

  • Katrina C

This is an incredible gym. The workouts are fantastic, the people are great, and the coaching is spectacular. I joined this gym with no experience and I immediately felt welcomed by everyone and my fitness has improved rapidly. I always look forward to going and would recommend this gym to anyone!
