Defiant CrossFit

When I was Visiting my family in town for a week. I was looking into the boxes surrounding the ATX and found Defiant CrossFit. When I first stepped into the garage bag doors, I was fortunate to meet Marcus the owner, and man can I say what a straight up G. Im super blessed to call a new box home and looking forward to many more visits in the future. Super welcoming and an amazing environment to train.

Ive never been called an Athlete. I was the girl always picked last for a team sport and told to stick to things outside of athletics because I would get hurt due to my lack of coordination. Ive battled with my weight and acceptance since I can remember. I share all this just to say that Defiance has been my gym for 3 months now and I love it! At Defiant I have found ownership that is passionate about their craft, coaches who care and focus on the details of an athletes specifics needs (thats right, Im an athlete now!) Every coach I have come across in my training has given me something new to learn from. I was able to walk in with all my mental blocks and at my highest weight and feel like I was welcomed with positivity and given the tools to overcome those challenges. There is an amazing balance of the staff making you feel challenged but also a genuine push for self awareness, mobility training and scaling appropriately. The community is most incredible. I love the crew so much that I am willing to wake up early to do the 5:15AM classes! Ive never looked forward to going to a workout. The workouts are well prepared and never boring (trust me..). The community is inviting and you can tell they have been friends for a long time. There isnt an unhealthy competition or shaming. You get to meet and learn from other members who have been devoted to the sport for years or those who have just started like you. Its contagious and healthy to be around people who are more advanced than you! Come fall in love with lifting weights and with this amazing community.

Great place to get a workout. The owner was kind enough to allow our special Olympics lifters to practice there. Highly recommend!

My grandson, Tyler, has used Defiant CrossFit for several years for Special Olympics training. Defiant CrossFit is clean and well maintained. They have a good inventory of powerlifting equipment. Great place in a convenient location.

I joined Defiant Crossfit about five months ago. As someone completely new to Crossfit, this gym has been wonderful about helping me learn the ins & outs of each movement. The coaches have helped me focus on form, push me when I needed it, and offer so much helpful advice for each movement. Being new, they always make sure that I am doing everything safely and help me scale appropriately. The Defiant community is nothing like I have ever been a part of before -- everyone is welcoming, friendly, & has made the gym feel like home. Highly recommend checking it out if you are looking for a gym home!
