''6+ years of CrossFit, nearly 62 — and I’ve never felt better. Stronger, healthier, and more alive than ever. Age is just a number — consistency is everything''.
“I’ve been doing CrossFit at CrossFit Tamworth since 2019 and I absolutely love it! I’m 50 now and going through perimenopause/menopause, and honestly, it’s made such a difference. The workouts keep me fit, strong, and sane! The coaches are brilliant — always supportive and encouraging — and the community is just amazing. No two sessions are ever the same, which keeps things fun and challenging. I always walk out feeling better than when I walked in. CrossFit Tamworth has really helped me stay positive and confident through this stage of life.”
''I have never felt more at home than I do at CFT. The coaches and members are the most friendly and amazing people I’ve ever met. CFT honestly makes my day and I am so grateful to find such a great place to push myself🙌🏻🫶🏻''
I joined in September 2022 because, as a runner, I knew I needed to include strength training to support my running and overall health.
Since joining, I have become the fittest and strongest I have ever been. At 56, my goal is to age strong, and CrossFit Tamworth has given me the coaching, structure, and encouragement to do exactly that.
Before I joined, I didn’t even know what a deadlift was. Now I can deadlift over 100kg—something I never imagined possible. I believe it is especially important for women to lift weights, and CrossFit Tamworth provides a safe, supportive environment to build confidence and strength.
The programming offers the perfect balance of routine and variety, which suits me really well, and the coaches are excellent at helping everyone progress at their own pace.
Strength training at CrossFit Tamworth has also played a key role in my running achievements. Since joining, I have completed all six Abbott World Marathon Majors and earned my Six Star Medal.
What makes CrossFit Tamworth truly special is the community. I have made wonderful lifelong friends and found a place where people genuinely encourage and support one another.
If you want to become stronger, fitter, and part of an uplifting community, I highly recommend CrossFit Tamworth.
Transitioning from the Tots and Squats mum & baby classes into a full CrossFit class felt a bit intimidating at first, but it’s honestly been such a positive experience. The transition has been so smooth, and everything is easily scalable, which means I’ve been able to work at a level that suits me while still feeling challenged and supported.
Chris and Jon have really took the time to focus on each person in the classes, especially when learning new movements and complexes. There’s a big emphasis on technique, which has made such a difference to my confidence as I’m still learning and building my skills.
Overall, it’s been a really empowering step in my fitness journey. I’m absolutely loving the start of my CrossFit journey and so glad I made the move — excited to keep learning, getting stronger, and seeing where it takes me

I joined CFT in 2022 and it’s been the best decision ever!
I have made friends for life, gained so much strength and fitness. From a girl that just couldn’t find her feet in a “normal” gym the group aspect and friendly atmosphere kept me coming back!
Pre pregnancy I was absolutely thriving and had made so many improvements I have recently entered a new stage of my life post partum and look forward to what CFT can do for me going forward with their vast amount of classes including tots and squats and coach education bring it on

I first jointed CF Tamworth 4 years ago to do a 12 weeks program, which was absolutely fantastic!
After having my little boy last year I joined the Tots & Squats classes which allowed me to bring my baby whilst working out. The classes saved my sanity and allowed me to meet some of my closest friends today. The classes are so welcoming and friendly - I’ve now joined the main classes which again, I absolutely love.
Everyone’s so friendly and always willing to help and cheer you on! I’d recommend it to absolutely everyone

CrossFit has completely changed the way I look at fitness. What I love most about CrossFit is that every workout pushes me to challenge myself both mentally and physically. The variety is great and no two sessions ever feel the same.
The community atmosphere is also incredible — everyone motivates and supports each other, no matter their fitness level and I feel I have made lasting friendships.
Since starting CrossFit, I’ve made huge gains in strength, endurance, and confidence. I can lift heavier weights that I didn’t think possible.

Started CrossFit during menopause and honestly wish I’d done it sooner. As an older woman I was nervous about keeping up, but the coaches have been supportive, knowledgeable and great at adapting workouts to suit all abilities.
I’ve become stronger, fitter and far more confident, and the community is incredibly welcoming — not intimidation at all.
The focus on strength has really helped during menopause, both physically and mentally. If you’re a woman of a certain age and wondering if CrossFit is ‘for you’ — it absolutely can be’
