FTX Performance Training

Great vibe! I’m from out of town but called a day ahead to drop-​in. Cole was extremely accommodating and asked my skill level before pairing me up. Amazing workout and top notch facility. Would recommend to anyone looking to take their fitness to the next level.

Awesome coaches and great community! During every WOD you are around people that are motivated, friendly, and caring. The programming is on point! Definitely drop in if you are in the area!

I have participated in numerous workout programs from different strength and conditioning coaches and personal trainers and can confidently say that FTX has been the best workout experience I have had. The workouts are challenging but manageable and Derek maintains a strong focus on form and technique, ensuring the safety of all the athletes there. Derek is very mindful of the strengths and weaknesses of all FTX athletes and knows where to push and where to take a step back. I have several physical limitations (bad knee and some joint mobility issues) and Derek works with me to improve these areas or modify my workout to make sure I get the most out of it. There are two class options offered at each class time which allows additional variety if you would like as well. The FTX family is very welcoming and always a joy to be around. I cannot recommend FTX enough for those looking to improve their strength, mobility, and overall fitness level.

FTX is more then just a gym but family. Derek (the owner and head coach) programs workouts that challenge all levels of fitness. The workouts combined with the community atmosphere makes FTX a one of a kind place. Combining Crossfit with endurance type workouts, you are sure to see results. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a change and continued support through the process.

I’ve been attending FTX for over a year now — I absolutely love it. The workouts are challenging and the gym has a great energy. Derek is hands down the best trainer in the area. Once you start you will be hooked and love the results!

Derek runs a great gym with a great atmosphere. The environment is always clean and equipment top quality. There’s a great core membership here that’s constantly growing and welcoming newcomers. I was impressed with how everyone, regardless of strength/​ability/​experience, is willing to spend their own personal time after workouts to help anyone that needs help with their technique or form. No elitism, just a great group of people who enjoy working out together. Some people even bring their kids to run with them outside or hang out in the waiting area, that’s just how welcoming the place is.
I love the Saturday morning workouts, it gives you the opportunity to meet other members who come in at different times (Ex. I usually go in the evenings, while some always go in the mornings). It’s also a great detox after a Friday night out.

Are you looking for the best gym or that gym that has the #1 trainer in this area? Well, THIS IS IT!!! Derek Baer has the Best Gym and is the #1 trainer around. Derek is very knowledgable, motivating, and very well in tuned with all of the members and our desired goals. I love this gym for all the multiple option you are given. From Run Club, Crossfit, Bootcamp, Open Gym, to Summer Kids Camp with multiple times that are available you just can’t beat that! FTX/​FSCF also provides that family atmosphere which you don’t come across very often anymore. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first time to ever workout or if you have worked out for years you will fit right in. I highly recommend this gym!!! You will love it!!!

Best gym around! Great people! Amazing trainer! I love that every time I go in, I get a completely different workout that continues to keep me engaged and challenged. There are many days where I have to convince myself to get in there and go, but when I get there, I’m so glad I did. I’ve had two children in a short period of time and both times I worked out during and after my pregnancies with no problems! I have also dropped all my post baby weight within just a few months! The workouts are easily scalable and NO ONE makes you feel left behind! Super encouraging coaches and members. Class sizes are perfect, the location is in the heart of downtown Frisco, membership pricing is the cheapest I’ve found for this type of training. I love FTX and will be a member for life!

Derek Baer is the trainer at this facility and he is consistently voted as the top trainer and fitness instructor in the metroplex. His accolades are well deserved. I have trained with Derek for a couple of years and started at FTX after having a baby this past Fall. Derek easily provides me with the modifications and support I needed as I rebuild and expand upon my strength. He encourages me in his own way to tackle the exercises that my body needs while staying within my own limits.
The members at the gym are close-​knit yet very welcoming! I have been encouraged by every person I work out with, and I have never felt left out due to any cliques as can happen with similar gyms or group fitness programs.
In regards to the workout, each day is a new routine. You have the option at every class to go for the «strength» (typical crossfit style) or «endurance» (little to no barbells and weights, more cross training between cardio and body weight exercises). I am an endurance girl and have powered through some tough workouts each class.
I love being a part of the community at FTX and highly recommend it to anyone serious about their workout routine, no matter your current fitness level. Derek will work with you to reach your goals and beyond.
