Gas Station Fitness & Nutrition | Home of CrossFit Slough

I cannot recommend this box enough. My progress in the last few months is beyond my expectation and for the first time in a long time I look forward to my next session. The support of trainers means I extend myself and achieve during each session, regardless of how new the workout is. I am seeing and feeling results everyday which is more than I ever gained from traditional gym memberships of the past. I have found a new focus on strength which is a great motivator.

I started at the Gas Station around 3 weeks prior to the Second Lockdown. It’s a small community with Positive vibes and a Friendly crew who are always available to help and guide. Gas Station can easily become a positive addiction because it’s incredibly enjoyable and whatever the reason behind joining it you do see results . Big Thanks to The Gas Station. I’m definitely sticking with you. 👍🏽

This place has literally changed my life, I've gone from being an out of breath walking up a slight incline 94kg person to a much more fit and lean no problems with inclines 78kg individual and it's all thanks to the hard work, dedication and inclusiveness of this place. I'm not a very self motivated person when it comes to exercise and nutrition, I know what I should be doing but never do. Regular gyms just simply do not compare to this place, the team motivates you to work harder than you have ever worked before and when you're done, and I mean done in, all you want to do is go back for more. There's no feeling of judgment here, and I've never seen such a diverse cohort. Regardless of how you think you look or how good or bad you are everyone feels equal and welcome. The team are nothing but friendly, supportive, encouraging and highly trained. It's not just a place you turn up and use the equipment, it's a community and one I'm glad I'm part of.

I became a member at Gas station fitness (formerly CrossFit Slough) in Oct 2016. At the time I had recently started a job at nearby Wexham springs. I have changed jobs a few times since then and my journey time to Slough got longer and longer. Naturally I tried different gyms more local to me however time after time I came back to Gas station fitness. Why? i) Community No where else have I felt as supported or welcome whether it is by the coaching team or other members. Getting and keeping fit can be hard so why handicap yourself going somewhere that isn’t welcoming or fun. I thought the atmosphere at Gas station was the norm however when I tried other gyms it was clear that wasn’t the case, people came and went and never spoke to each other. The coaching team are very open and supportive to both new and existing members. I also found the Gas station coaching team willing to give advice and offer 10 minutes of their help whilst other gyms would demand you pay for 1:1 PT for the same advice. ii) Safety Google CrossFit and you will lots of videos of top end athletes Olympic lifting and performing high intensity gymnastic movements. People often think they will be able to do the same quickly. Ask around and you may find a few uninformed people will say “CrossFit is dangerous, you’ll get injured”. To that I say do your homework be clear with your expectations. The coaching team at Gas station are realistic, supportive but also challenge you to improve and beat your expectations. I have NEVER felt unsafe in a class at Gas station fitness, whilst I have elsewhere. Some other gyms pack as many members as possible into a class. That can result in less attention from the coach and things can get a bit hazardous when heavy barbells are involved. However, this has NEVER been the case at Gas station. The coaching, class size, quality of kit, programming and schedule are all conducive to safety and getting great results. iii) Value for money Time after time I came back to Gas station fitness because nowhere has given me the same level of results for the same money and effort. The programming and class schedule suits people like me with full time jobs and families. Even if a big brand gym offered me daily personal training for the same monthly price I wouldn’t swap because I’d miss the community, atmosphere and probably wouldn’t work anywhere near as as hard.

What an absolutely lovely bunch of trainers. First time I have done crossfit so was nervous but they are all very encouraging and modify exercises as required. Classes are kept within social distancing guidelines and all equipment cleaned between classes. I would recommend for all levels of fitness.
