Jeffrey gives great feedback to help you achieve results, while maintaining good form and staying safe! I love how he manages to give corrections and suggestions while remaining positive and encouraging!
What’s one personal change you’ve noticed isince joining CrossFit AFK?it was 👍
'Twas good 👍
Sometimes I’m super nervous walking into class. I worry that I won’t be able to perform, but Jeffries’s coaching and encouragement always get me there. His methodical way of fixing every technical move helps us all succeed at whatever level we are at.
Coach Jeffrey is amazing! He’s great at offering modifications that still challenge me but fit exactly what my body needs and can tolerate on any given day. During workouts at CrossFit AFK, he carefully observes my form and makes adjustments as needed which always help. His corrections are always helpful, pointing out small changes that make a big difference, yet they never feel discouraging or like I’m falling short. I leave sessions feeling both challenged and supported. I’m excited to continue training!
Jeffrey is an amazing coach! During workouts, just when I’m ready to give up because my muscles are burning and my energy is fading, he’s right there beside me, motivating me to keep going. He notices when my form starts to slip and offers quick adjustments that help me push through without risking injury. His encouragement isn’t just words - it’s the kind that makes you feel like you really can finish that last round or hit that final rep. Having him there at CrossFit AFK transforms tough sessions into challenges I actually look forward to facing.
I already feel so much more confident than I did when I walked in the door the first day. Courtney is great at making you feel comfortable and giving tips on improving.
I felt comfortable with the movements and had enough time to develop those before the workout. I got a good workout in and didn’t feel like I pushed myself too hard after surgery.
I learned some new things about butterfly pull-ups recently! I wish I had such a clear example back when I was trying to learn them last time!
Jeffrey does a great job of correcting your form. The words he chooses also helps me understand the movement better and I get the technique faster. I feel like I'm catching on pretty quickly and am very comfortable in his class
Amazing gym and even better coaching! AFK CrossFit is absolutely fantastic. Coach Jeffrey is amazing — he makes sure every class covers all the basics, from warm-ups and stretching to cool-downs and proper form. Whether you’re a total beginner or an experienced athlete, you’ll feel supported and challenged here. The atmosphere is positive, encouraging, and full of energy. Highly recommend for anyone looking to get stronger, healthier, and have fun doing it!
Jeffery always does a great job, his enthusiasm and attention to specific needs is awesome.
Jeffrey does a great job at making sure we stay motivated during our workouts and that we are doing to workouts correctly. He is so friendly and makes you feel comfortable by scaling any workout to your needs!
Jeffrey is very good at giving tips to improve form as well as individualized scaling options to maximize performance recognizing individual limitations.
I used to think that going to the gym would never be for me. Jeffrey has helped me build the confidence I needed to show up and put everything I have into the workout. Old me would never have the enjoyment and dedication to keep going.
Jeffrey offers clear instruction and makes thoughtful corrections to form while keeping the feedback and motivation positive and encouraging. He does an excellent job explaining the broader focus for the week along with a detailed breakdown of each day’s workout. The structure helps everyone understand the purpose behind the programming. Classes start and end on time, with enough room for proper warm-ups, workouts, and cool-downs. The programming is well balanced between upper and lower body. The environment is welcoming, positive, and community-oriented. The culture in classes is friendly and supportive, making them motivating to attend.
Jeffery is an awesome coach. Probably the best, ever. He’s very personable. He understands each athletes strengths and weaknesses and knows how to modify workouts to make sure everyone gets the most out of it.
Jeffrey coached my first crash course class at CrossFit AFK and wow was it a great class! He did great at showing us the correct form for each exercise and kept the energy high!
Jeffrey is always great in ensuring we get the most from the workout and meeting us where we are. I appreciate the extra support today to ensure I was not overdoing it coming back from a mild injury.
Jeffrey is amazing. Today’s class
It’s ALWAYS a joy to see Jeffrey at the 5am class, he goes thru every movement we will be doing in the workout during warmups to make sure we are educated to scale if needed. He also throws in little bit of humor 😊 he makes it fun to be in his class even when I’m crying about doing Cardio and he gives me the perfect level of push I need to make it thru each class. I absolutely love starting my days at CROSSFIT AFK
I tried CrossFit for the first time and was blown away by how welcoming and supportive everyone was. The coach and members created such a friendly environment that made me feel comfortable right away. The workout was the perfect mix of fun and challenging
Jeffrey is a talented coach and trainer. He provides excellent guidance throughout the class helping me get the most out of my workouts. If you are looking for excellence in a safe and fun environment, this is it!
Patient with new members and great at encouraging without being pushy! Had a great first experience!
Today went great, all of the exercises were explained and demonstrated. Coach Jeffrey is there to answer any questions. Overall a great atmosphere to work out in.
Great class! Good direction, got my heart pumping!
Jeffrey is an AMAZING coach! He is engaging, supportive, friendly, and respectful!! 10/10 would recommend! He genuinely cares about each and every person, including their fitness goals. ☺️
Always very positive and willing to answer all the questions I have. I appreciate the push!
Coaching is awesome. Jeffrey has incredible attention to detail. He’s able to quickly pick up on issues and make suggestions and queues quickly to adjust forms and positions.
I felt welcome by the coach and members. Going in I was intimidated but my fears were quickly laid to rest. I am eager to see the progress made through this adventure!
Coach Jeffrey is an outstanding CrossFit coach! His energy, attention to detail, and ability to tailor workouts to all fitness levels makes every class both challenging and fun. He gives clear, motivating instruction and always ensures proper form and safety. I've seen real progress thanks to Jeffrey and the coaching team at CrossFit AFK!
I needed to remember what sore forearms are like. Great success
Jeffrey takes the time to ask about injuries and modifies any and all movements to accommodate the needs and fitness level of all participants. He ensure that you are using the proper techniques when performing the movements. He is more than just a coach. He truly cares about you being healthy and achieving your goals.
Courtney does a great job explaining each exercise clearly and I felt very confident going into the workout after her warm up! She was constantly making sure everyone was comfortable and motivated throughout the full class. I would definitely recommend trying a class if you want a good workout. 😊
Good workout today. Jeffrey explained the dumbell snatches very well!
A warm welcome back after taking a month break. I LOVE CrossFit AFK!
Courtney did a fantastic job. She made sure she came up to each of us to correct our posture while motivating us to push ourselves harder. She also did a great job at applauding us while doing the workouts!! I mainly appreciate her taking the time to come to us one on one during the workout to make sure we’re doing good and help us if need be! I tend to forget easily & can have a hard time knowing how and where to stand and what exactly to do unless I’m shown a few times. In which she didn’t make me feel bad or silly for needing help. She just helped me and then applauded me afterwards. Made me feel great:)
Fun and straightforward class! Enjoyed the pre-workout foam rolling and suggested stretches after.
It was a great class, Jeffrey was very communicative, attentive to challenges, and encouraging.
He was great, and answered all my questions!
Jeffrey did amazing. Although it was a group class, he was still focused on each one individually to correct and improve their workout.
Courtney did great! She was watching 8 people for form at the same time and was giving feedback for everyone. Feeling very worked.
Work out was great!
I am new to cross fit and already love it Jeffrey was awesome, very easy to follow and help if I had any difficulties with any of the movements. Can't wait to see how far I can go. Great coaching and overall great experience.
Coaching cues and encouragement were on point!
Courtney was fun and energetic! She was very helpful and showrd me how to fix my front squat form today
Jeffrey was great to work with! The free first class is a great idea for wanting to see what CrossFit is about
Jeffrey is a very thorough and encouraging coach. He gives you options depending on your level of physical fitness and has a very good leadership demeanor.
Class was on fire today. Never miss a Monday and Jeffrey makes sure our Mondays are great!
