One of the most friendly culture and environment where they make sure there are enough ice breaking activities are there in the gym. Crossfit is really amazing and not only that the outside event are great once in a while like basketball tournament and other sports based activities. I would suggest that not to listen to these haters and negative people and experience the facility on your own for a month or two and you will know the difference why its the best place to workout, make friends and meet up like minded people.
