Pure Grit Fitness

Expérience fantastique: Awesome gym with a real sense of community. The workouts are always rewarding and the coaching/leadership is on point. Shelby and her team genuinely care about doing things right and helping people grow. It’s a place where everyone’s pushing themselves and looking out for each other. I highly recommend.

Expérience fantastique: Puregrit is Amazing! Every time you go, the atmosphere is welcoming and open. Shelby and her team are knowledgeable, and will always make recommendations as to how you are feeling and modifications to your needs - to challenge you and when your body just needs to move.

Expérience fantastique: Since day 1 of stepping into the Pure Grit facility, I immediately felt part of the community. Shelby and all her coaches have been accomodating and offer multiple different opportunities to modify a workout to meet your specific fitness needs. The professioanlism and knowledge of ALL the coaches, the warmth of the community memebers, all make Pure Grit a happy place to start your journey to life long fitness.

Expérience fantastique: I’ve been training at Pure Grit CrossFit for a couple of years now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. The owner, Shelby, is absolutely amazing—she’s incredibly kind, friendly, and goes out of her way to make everyone feel comfortable. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and supported. The atmosphere here is unlike anything I’ve experienced before. It’s truly a inclusive and positive environment where everyone encourages each other to be their best. The sense of community is so strong that it feels like family. No matter your fitness level, you’re embraced and pushed to grow in a way that feels empowering and inspiring. The people and the workouts have genuinely changed my life, and I’m beyond grateful to be part of such an uplifting space. I can’t recommend this gym highly enough. If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be challenged, supported, and surrounded by amazing people, this is it.

Expérience fantastique: The best gym with the best people!!! Shelby (owner) is super knowledgeable and has helped me grow so much in just a few short months. The community is amazing and the members are very welcoming. Being new to crossfit, I was a little nervous about what to expect. Shelby took the time to explain and go through the exercises/workouts before I did any classes and I felt much more at ease knowing what to expect. It doesn’t matter your age or background- anyone can do it!

Expérience fantastique: This gym is my home! I joined this gym 3 years ago, after getting posted to CFB Trenton. I didn’t have a very big friend group in Ontario and was always told that joining a CrossFit gym was a great way to meet new friends so I decided to give it a shot. I came in for an intro session with Shelby and she put me through a workout that tested my abilities to the max. At the end of the class, I felt like I had gave it my all and knew I had found a type of training that could improve my fitness exponentially. I was hooked. I’m competitive in nature through sport and other activities, and this gym certainly scratches that itch. Since starting at this gym, I have grown immensely as an athlete, thanks to the guidance and support from Shelby and the other coaches. I feel fitter and healthier than ever before, and I’m still going. When I walk through those doors to begin a class, I’m at my happiest and I truly consider it the best hour of my day. When I leave, I feel like I can take on any task the day hands me. I’ve made some truly amazing friendships at this gym and I am so glad I found this place. If you’re looking to get a great workout in, find community through fitness, and improve yourself as a person overall, this is the spot! Ben

Expérience fantastique: I can’t recommend Pure Grit CrossFit enough! As a woman in my late 40s, I was nervous about starting, but the coaches made me feel supported from day one. They’re patient, knowledgeable, and really invested in your progress, no matter your fitness level. The community is amazing, and the structured classes are effective, keeping you on track and motivated. You get great value for your money with daily workouts that really make a difference. They even offer kids' classes! You don’t need to be in perfect shape to start; the coaches meet you where you are and help you improve. Joining has truly boosted my happiness and lifestyle. Highly recommend!

Expérience fantastique: Pure Grit is not just a gym, it’s a community of fun, caring people that are all there for the same goal and that’s a healthier lifestyle. Before I started CrossFit there was a lot of misconceptions on whether I would be able to do it or who it is geared towards. After being apart of the family here for many years I’ve realized that this is for everyone. Any age, any fitness level any goal you may have. Every workout can be geared towards where you are at now and where you want to be. The group class setting is always a blast with good music, good people working towards the common goal!

Expérience fantastique: I was new to crossfit when I started about 7 months ago and honestly a bit intimated by the sport at first. That nervousness was quickly put at ease. This gym is accessible to everyone at ANY fitness level! Everyone here is very welcoming from day one and are always encouraging and motivating each other to be their best! Coach Shelby is amazing at seeing the potential in you and helping push and guide you to achieve your goals! In my short time here so far, I have seen a huge growth in myself, physically and mentally. I have gained a lot more confidence in myself since starting. Joining this gym was the best decision I've made!

Expérience fantastique: Shelby and the Pure Grit team motivate, push and build confidence. Shelby goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcome and a part of the team.

Expérience fantastique: Amazing gym atmosphere with great coaching. Have been working out here for several years now and nothing compares!

Expérience fantastique: I joined PureGrit in 2023 after struggling for years with the motivation and confidence to workout again. At first, I was nervous that I would not be able to keep up because I wasn’t in shape. However, I quickly realized that it’s accessible to everyone, no matter what your current fitness level looks like. I was immediately welcomed and supported as someone who was completely new to CrossFit and not very athletic. All of the coaches are extremely knowledgeable and break down the variations to all of the exercises to meet all skill levels. I have always struggled in a regular gym setting because I don’t know what workouts I should do to achieve my fitness goals but CrossFit always has that taken care of. It’s been life changing for me as it has helped with both my mental and physical health. In addition, I have made other major lifestyle changes as a by product of wanting to perform better during CrossFit such as eating habits, mindset changes and other physical activities. Not only has it helped me but it has also helped my kids. They have been doing their own CrossFit classes for 1.5 years now and they have gained new skills and confidence to help them with their other sports. And…. If that wasn’t enough to convince you to join PureGrit, I will NEVER shut up about the amazing community. On the days that I am not motivated to work out and the discipline isn’t enough, I go anyway because I want to spend time with friends. I cannot express how many days I had with no desire to “people” or workout but I went anyway because I know spending 1 hour with other members will turn my whole day around. I genuinely cannot imagine my life without these people and I am so grateful I took the leap to join!

Expérience fantastique: Words cannot describe how truly amazing this community of Crossfit athletes are! Shelby, her group of coaches, and the people that make up this gym are the most supportive individuals I have ever met. Every CrossFit class is well programmed and the coaches are great to offer tips and support throughout. This gym has become an integral part of my life and daily routine - it has been and is a truly life-changing experience. Anyone looking to begin Crossfit or anyone experienced with CrossFit/functional fitness training - this is the gym to be at.
