I've been a Faction member for over 4 years. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I done have an athletic background. However, the awesome coaches have helped me become more fit than I ever imagined possible. The best is yet to come. I highly encourage people of all fitness levels to try out my second home - Faction S&C.

Faction is awesome. Great equipment, plenty of space, and great coaching. Everyone was very welcoming and I can't wait to come again if I come back to Memphis

Soooo nowadays everyone has heard of Crossfit, it's sort of the new big thing in fitness... I've been wanting to give it a try for over a year now, I've heard great things about it, not only that it's something that works, but it's something that anyone can do. A few months ago I was looking on Groupon for a good deal and I ran across one for Faction Strength and Conditioning. The Groupon was for 6 weeks of Crossfit., 4 weeks of Fundamentals into classes (3 days a week) and 2 weeks of unlimited regular classes... I jumped on the deal immediately! Because the one thing that has been keeping me from doing Crossfit is how expensive it is. So i figured I would take advantage of this awesome deal! I convinced my roommate to get it with me so we could go to the classes together. We were undeniably nervous the first day, we didn't really know what to expect. There was a large group of people 40 - 45 people, ranging in age, sex and body type. We were greeted by a group of coaches who led us outside to begin the night with a warm up. I was impressed from the beginning, with a group so large i was questioning how effective the class would be, but without a doubt the coaches made us into a team. Every night we were introduced to a number of new movements/exercises that would then be combined to create the WOD aka work out of the day. The set up of the gym, looking like a warehouse with tons of workout equipment thrown inside, it's a big daunting at first glance, but throughout every night the coaches showed us how to use the equipment step by step. The coaches understand that there is a wide range of skill level with the people that come through the gym, knowing this the coaches always offer a "scaled version" of the workout, which basically constitutes a way to gain strength in a similar movement to in hopes be able to do the "Rx(prescribed)" version of the exercise in time.I have been going to Faction for 6 weeks now and I love it more and more every week, I am not strongest or fastest person in the gym and often times I am doing the scaled version of any given exercise, but in the last 6 weeks I can already tell a change in my body. I feel stronger, both physically and mentally and I feel a sense of personal competitiveness, I want to keep working hard and pushing myself to get better. Since my Groupon ended I have joined the Faction gym with a 12-month commitment. Okay so enough about me, to all of you future Crossfitters hesitating to give it a try, don't! Come see the amazing family that Faction has created! Trust me, you won't regret it!

Have been attending Faction for just under a year and love it. Crossfit has become an international fitness fad and there are definitely a lot of crappy boxes that have opened up. Faction is not one of these. Coaching is without a doubt the best I've encountered in the 4 years since I first started going to Crossfit classes. The people are also way friendlier than at most Crossfit gyms. There are a ton of class times offered and the facilities are refreshingly spacious. I cannot count the number of times in other boxes where I've almost been taken out by someone and their barbell. Only drawback is the cost - at around $200 a month and mandatory contracts, it's definitely a commitment. Totally worth every penny in my opinion.

This is such a fantastic gym. Coming from another one after just moving to the area I wasn't sure what to expect but was welcomed with open arms. They have the ability to coach to all levels and I would highly recommend this gym to anyone considering crossfit.

If you happen to be in Memphis on business and need a box to work out at, don't bother calling this one. They don't call back. I went to the 2 others that are very close to this one and they were both AWESOME WORKOUTS!!! ( Chickasaw and 901)
