Cinco CrossFit

I love this place. best workout of my life. The coaching is fantastic and they are extremely patient with me as a beginner. The workouts are different every time and I can tell they spend a lot of time preparing for a good experience. I’m two months into this and I’ve lost 12lbs and toned up so much, I’m not sure what else I could have done to get those results so fast.

Long time friend and client of this gym family. I don’t always CrossFit, but when I do, I CrossFit @ Cinco.

Started last week here on their free pass. It only took one class for me to realize this is exactly what I need. The coaching is on point, workouts are easily scaled and the gym is top notch. Wide open space with everything you’ll need to bust the gut. I’m very pleased with my decision to join.

There’s almost too much to say when it comes to «reviewing» Cinco CrossFit. I’ll leave the parts about the amazing coaches, great facilities, and smart programming to my CCF family. My experience is a bit unique.
Cinco Crossfit saved my life… twice. Both times had to do with getting me and my family through a rare form of lung cancer that I contracted despite not having smoked a day in my life. My Cinco CrossFit family was and is there for me and my family. Arranging nightly meals for weeks at a time, putting together two American Cancer Society Relay for Life teams, and creating a globe-​trotting «Flat Rommel» are just a few examples of the love and support my family and friends have gifted us. Naming the box after me is a pretty good example of the level of support they’ve given to date.
CrossFit is a key component of my two sons’ (12 and 15) lives as well. They’re faster, stronger, and mentally tougher than they ever have been. More importantly, they have built their own communities through CrossFit Kids and CrossFit Teens. They’ve grown-​up with each other and now are close friends beyond the box.
Thank you is never enough, but it will have to do for now.

Strong community, challenging workouts with individualized attention. Cinco is everything you are looking for a crossfit affiliate to be and more. As I inch closer to 50, I can honestly state that thanks to their top-​notch coaching, programming and support I feel stronger and healthier than ever. If you want to get strong, if you want to be challenged in an encouraging environment and see results you never thought possible then you should check out Cinco.

I just hit my one year Crossfit anniversary, and I am so thankful to the Coaches and Community of Cinco Crossfit! At 51 years old now, I never thought Crossfit would be for a guy like me. My age, my height at 6’7″, all my surgeries, lack of mobility were all just excuses to not step outside my comfort zone. From the time I walked in to learn a little more about Crossfit a year ago now, I have never looked back, and have not had the strength and mobility since my college days. The coaches are incredible, and everyone encourages and pushes everyone, no matter what your level, to simply improve where you are at. I have never felt intimidated by the guys that can do things I can’t do, but rather inspired, as everyone helps everyone. As good as the benefits have been to my overall health and fitness, so has been the community of friends I have built. Thank you Crossfit Cinco for the incredible first year!

The best coaching in South Orange County. They even have level two Crossfit coaching and multiple certifications (Olympic lifting, strong man, etc). I am already over 50 and their programming made me feel better than in my 30’s. The community there is the best. I made so many friends since I joined their previous gym several years ago. The owners really pay attention to detail, not to forget the frequent visits by elite Crossfit Games athletes to work out with us mortals! If you want to have fun while getting in shape this is the best place in town!!!

The most welcoming group of people! Jimi, Madeline and their family along with Nick and Britne along with Coach Alex and the rest of the crew are the most caring, inclusive group who care about you in and outside of the gym. We are proud to be a part of this community where we have found a second family. If you are looking for great programming and knowledgeable coaches you have come to the best place in OC!

Amazing facility and some of the best CrossFit coaches around. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone interested in getting into CrossFit as the community is filled with some of the nicest people around.

Community and coaching are second to none at this box! If you happen to want to workout with some of the OG affiliate owners in SoCal or get strong under some amazing programming then this is the place. But mostly, just pretty awesome people and vibe.

Best box around! With owners and coaches that are passionate about their job, and love what they do, you get great results. They take their time to teach you proper technique and body movements to maximize results while circumventing injury. Cinco CrossFit is a business whose purpose is to create a community that embraces everyone, while promoting a healthy and active lifestyle. What you get when you join:
Knowledgeable and passionate coaches
Plenty of top-​tier equipment
Highly developed and diverse WODs
Olympic lifting
Results
Clean and organized facility
Family friendly
Community and lifelong friends
No egos

The box has taken a toll from the change of owners. However, community stayed very strong. Hoping to see lots of changes with the return of the original owners. Perhaps a desk person who can keep the box open even when there’s no classes happening. I have seen customers walk in before, and can’t get prompt customer service because the coach is currently coaching classes or people peeking into the glasses but can’t get in because there’s no classes happening therefore the box is closed (1−4pm).
Coaching is by far the best I’ve experienced locally & have help my family change our lifestyle for the better. Coach Alex & Roman are not only knowledgable on what they do but also helpful in many ways. And again, community is the best.

By far one of the best places to work out with! Amazing coaching staff and owners! Everyone is like one big family. From day one I felt accepted. I even did Crossfit my whole pregnancy thanks to amazing coaching to help me!!! Thank you!

Never have I come across a better workout program or coaches. The programming is the best. If you are considering a new routine or a new gym give Cinco Crossfit a try. You won’t be disappointed. At 37 and post baby, I am in better shape than I have ever been. Roman, Nick, Alex and the new owners are awesome!!!

Walked in to buy a protein powder but no one even acknowledged me. Stood there for about 5 minutes so I took the product from the shelf and took it to the front counter. This time I see one of the trainers coming my way so o asked if I could just pay for it. He said ask that other guy. I said well, he’s with someone. Then he said «well I’m with someone too» so I said that’s fine. I just won’t get it. Then he turns around and tell me «you need to put that back in the shelf».
Really? Who treats paying customers like that? I put it in the shelf reluctantly but what I should’ve done is tell him to put it back himself.
I’m all about supporting local businesses buy this one I will never support at all after being treated that way. I’ll bring my business elsewhere.

Teenage daughter was signed up and enjoyed it. HOWEVER, the company/​person that handles the automatic payment withdrawals each month continued to charge our account two months after having cancelled. You have to email this person who handles the billing to take care of it. First charge was reversed after three days. Second charge was reversed after three days but no before sending our account into the negative and us receiving $ 60 in NSF bank fees. Multiple emails have been sent with no response about the issue. Multiple calls to the Ladera location have been made and the issue discussed with trainers and promises that the manager will call us back. So they have basically stolen $ 60 from us and don’t have enough courtesy or business ethic to try to resolve a valid customer complaint.
HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND BUSINESS ETHICS.

This place Rocks! The coaches are extremely helpful and knowledgeable! They make sure every movement is done with the proper form and technique in order to ensure the safety of everyone in the gym! The people that go to CF Ethos are amazing as well! They care about one another and truly want you to succeed! Its very competitive but in a fun atmosphere! There aren’t any pompous A holes, just a lot of extremely humble athletes that care about improving in and out if the gym! CF isn’t just about the conpetition with others its all about the competition with yourself, constantly pushing your limits and going to places you never imagine going! Its a perfect correlation to life! I owe not just the physical but the mental improvements to CF Ethos! I strongly recommend it to anyone just curious about Crossfit in general! Come in and check it out, I promise you will love it!

TERRIFIC COACHES, TERRIFIC PEOPLE, AND REAL RESULTS.
I’ve been at CrossFit Ethos for a little over a year and can’t believe how much my overall health and fitness have improved.
The facility is fantastic. There is plenty of equipment even in larger classes, and the box is always kept clean.
The coaches are attentive. They making sure you do exercises correctly and always have an encouraging word to push you further than you thought you could go.
When I started doing CrossFit I had done some basic weight training and not much else. Typical guy. It turns out I was doing most of my lifts wrong. Beyond that, I had no experience with most of the movements we do in CrossFit.
The coaches have spent a lot of time working with me to teach me the new movements and to correct my mistakes on the movements I thought I had a handle on. My form has improved so much it bears almost no resemblance to the mess I was when I arrived at Ethos, and my overall strength and athleticism have gone through the roof.
The community is just fantastic. From CrossFit veterans to beginners, everyone is welcoming and has a positive attitude. Instead of just pushing me I feel like my fellow CrossFitters are lifting me up and helping me to achieve things that I would have told you were impossible a year ago.
Bottom line: I’m in better shape than I have ever been in my life, and I couldn’t be happier being a member of the Ethos family.

Nice facility. Took my CrossFit Kids Trainer Course here. Professional and nicely located. Great parking and next to local tasty food sources.

Brand new to CrossFit but the welcoming rapport keeps me coming back every time. They are very attentive to form and easy to follow all the instructions. Great people!
