A good friend of mine works out here and I joined one morning recently. It was awesome. Our trainer was Joel and did a great job warming us up, keeping me motivated, and coaching me through. Not only are the trainers here great, I’ve met a good few of them, but also the people here are also super friendly and welcoming too.

A good friend of mine works out here and I joined one morning recently. It was awesome. Our trainer was Joel and did a great job warming us up, keeping me motivated, and coaching me through. Not only are the trainers here great, I’ve met a good few of them, but also the people here are also super friendly and welcoming too. A nice gent named Chubba even went and got me a 40lb dumbbell from the other side of the gym when I couldn’t find one. Love being in an environment where people are laid back, friendly and chill. If you’re also looking for that, 10/10 recommend. As a physical therapist I truly can vouch for STC and what they’re doing. Less

I signed up at this box for a short term membership while I was in town visiting relatives. The gym is a great size space that everyone attending classes fit into very comfortably. The coaching was thorough and engaging. I specifically enjoyed classes that Joel coached, as he was high energy and fun. The overall atmosphere was friendly and inviting. Members were generally outgoing, happy and had great energy. I can say there’s a few people that I’d gladly call a friend that I met while working out here for such a short time. Highly recommend if you’re in the area short term, or looking for a long term gym to call home! Less
Was in Tampa for a work trip and dropped into South Tampa CrossFit for a workout. At 7am on a Saturday morning i wasn’t sure what to expect. It was a great workout, great facilities, great atmosphere and very well run class. Highly recommend and will be back next time I’m in town.
Just the right amount of coaching and positive energy! It's you against you, with the help of professional and competent trainers 😎 They provide showers, towel service and day care.
Terrific place. They welcome new people of all strength and skill levels and are solely focused on helping members improve with individual attention and focus. Joel is an exceptional coach who is always looking to help you perfect your form so you get the most of your workout.
This place is amazing! Love the space, people, energy and the coches are great! They truly work with you! I recommend this place very much!!
I have been a member and employee (childcare) at STC for over 4 years and it is by far my favorite place to be. The coaches are absolutely amazing and each one has their own unique style that makes every class so different and really enjoyable. The community is so wonderful and makes everyone feel like family.

I have been a member and employee (childcare) at STC for over 4 years and it is by far my favorite place to be. The coaches are absolutely amazing and each one has their own unique style that makes every class so different and really enjoyable. The community is so wonderful and makes everyone feel like family. I have made lifelong friends and will be forever grateful for my time spent here. I have been honored to work so closely with the owner CJ and he is the most selfless, hardworking, and intelligent person I have ever encountered who is unsurpassable in anything he does. I am devastated to have to leave this astounding place but I am so appreciative of all my time spent here. If you live in Tampa and don’t go here you are missing out on such an amazing community who makes health and fitness fun and addicting. They are undoubtedly changing peoples lives for the better and make lasting impacts on those who invest their time here. Thank you STC for being the highlight of my life these past few years! I will miss all of y’all and cannot wait to visit. Less
Air conditioned space, super friendly and passionate staff, lots of good equipment! The group classes always offer something different and challenging. I genuinely look forward to coming here to workout! Beginner to expert, there's something here for everyone.
The programming is well thought out, planned and executed. The coaches take care to make sure the movements are done correctly and scaled to individual needs when necessary. Everyone from the coaches to the athletes working out are friendly and encouraging. I highly recommend South Tampa CrossFit.

I've been a member of STC for years now and I can tell you this is the most professional and well run box around. Gym is clean, staff is on top of everything and they provide really great programming and scaling options. No matter what your goals are this team can help you achieve it.
Best CrossFit gym with the best trainers..
Great family oriented gym. Highly recommend!
I love this place!! The trainers are very knowledgeable and make training fun!
I really loved this gym. All of the coaches were amazing, helpful, and patient. I definitely loved the 6 months I spent here. When I come back to visit, I’ll be dropping in for sure.
I played sports throughout college and ended up with a severe injury that greatly limits my wrist mobility.

I played sports throughout college and ended up with a severe injury that greatly limits my wrist mobility. The coaches at STCF have worked with me over the years to adapt to my injury and find ways to manage certain movements and avoid others. Everyone is friendly with a strong emphasis on community. 8+ classes during the week and 2 classes both weekend days + a kids room and childcare during some classes makes things extremely convenient for a young family. They've helped me meet short term goals and given me the confidence to shoot for longer term goals I never imagined I'd be able to accomplish. Having AC in FL during the summer is also a huge plus. My fiancée and I will be members for life and our kids are starting kids classes soon! Less
Just went to a box without Air Conditioning. I now realize I took for granted that this might be the only crossfit within a 50 mile radius that has A/C. Game changer. Class sizes are smaller, so you get personalized coaching. The coaching overall is impeccable. Members are welcoming and not a bunch of gym hardos obsessed with crossfit. Facilities are always immaculate. They even have wet wipes in... More

Great trainers and gym!
Great CrossFit gym with friendly staff and welcoming members.
Great family oriented gym! The owners Steph, Tricia and CJ are very welcoming and have created an awesome culture that makes working out fun. The trainers are super knowledgeable and are great at working with each individual to address specific needs. Highly recommend!
Love this gym! Great coaches!

Dropped in for a Sunday class. Great coach, great box and they have child care!
Recently dropped in for 3 weeks and couldn't have been happier with the choosing of South Tampa Crossfit as a gym to workout while on vacation. If you're debating on a gym while on vacation in Tampa or wanting a permanent place to workout, I highly recommend South Tampa Crossfit!
Very welcoming crew ! Excellent coaches, very knowledgeable and helpful. Awesome facility with top notch machinery. Thank you STC!
I mean... Free child care, friendly atmosphere, encouraging coaches, cool members, dogs, AC, his and hers bathrooms. A great CrossFit gym with a killer atmosphere and family vibe. More CrossFit gyms could learn from this attention to real community. Thanks for an awesome experience dropping in.

Nice Gym
I started CrossFit when I was at a low point in my life. I can honestly say it has being the best decision I ever made. The coaches are friendly and welcoming, most importantly encouraging. It definitely feels like a family! And may I also add they provide free childcare. Thank you STC :)
Awesome place great coaches and members
Take everything you’ve ever imagined about Crossfit, crossfit boxes and CrossFit box ownership and throw it right out the window. Certainly most if not all people who have tried CrossFit have at some point had some kind of negative experience at a box.

Take everything you’ve ever imagined about Crossfit, crossfit boxes and CrossFit box ownership and throw it right out the window. Certainly most if not all people who have tried CrossFit have at some point had some kind of negative experience at a box. This is the exception among exceptions, I attended this box for over a year and a half as a member and I was absolutely in love with this gym, it’s ownership, it’s coaches, its programming, its members, it’s equipment, it’s CHILDCARE!!! That’s right child care! Not just any childcare, childcare from individuals who will actually take care of your child in an air-conditioned facility. I have three children, all under the age of four and I had no qualms about leaving them under the watchful eye of the child care specialists, so I could fully focus on optimizing my fitness. So if you’re just dropping in, or seeking a gym to call home, this place is hands-down the best in South Tampa. You are certainly getting what you pay for whether you’re dropping in or becoming a member: hi intensity, functional and constantly varied fitness with world-class instruction and box mates. Less
I left another CrossFit box to join Horsepower, and the programming has been a noticeable improvement. Not once have I walked into the place and said to myself, "Eesh, I don't want to do that." It's tough, fair and, most importantly, fun. Fewer coaches on the roster means they actually get to know you better and quickly learn your strengths and weaknesses. The ownership team does a terrific job d... More

What makes a great CrossFit experience is the PEOPLE and these are the BEST!

Awesome place! Owners are great and coaching and programming are top knotc
I know the owners and staff of horsepower really well and recently attended a competition at the new south Tampa location. The facility is top notch with awesome bathrooms, showers and climate controlled. The coaches and owners really care about the community and it shows in their attention to detail and customer service. If you're in the area you need to check this place out!
Did a few drop-ins while I was visiting Tampa, and it was a great experience. Excellent coaching, and the community is incredibly welcoming and positive. I've been to dozens of boxes around the world, so I have a decent frame of reference when I give South Tampa CrossFit five stars and say that it's a great place to WOD. Thanks to the coaches and the community for an awesome time!
The first CrossFit in Tampa with air conditioning, locker rooms & child care!
The trainers first free session was really good.
What a cool space! I mean really....air conditioned comfort. The staff was so friendly and interested in my progress. I was introduced to the trainers Joe, Wes, Yoonmee, Joel and Mike at their Halloween event. FUN! Also my son needed to get in shape for his military physical and he did it at this gym. He said classes and trainers were big motivators.
Air conditioned, child care, what more could I ask for to give me peace of mind during my workout?! Wes was an amazing coach and I'm confident I'm FINALLY going to achieve my New Years fitness resolutions. Thanks, Team Horsepower!
I'm new to crossfit and I had a great experience at Horsepower Athletics. I don't know another gym with childcare and the kids had a good time too. Thank you!!
Great crossfit workout. Great space and location in South Tampa. I'll be back!
I was in Tampa for two and half months and wanted a place to keep me motivated. The coaches here are are first rate. Wes and Brooke, the owners, are awesome! I had multiple PR's and the family experience was just incredible. I will always come back to the box when I'm in town. You have to keep going strong as these hard-charging family members keep you motivated. The 0500 class is the best! Miss ... More

The program is very regimented and focuses on proper technique and strength, which is very important for a crossfit program that combines functional movements with high intensity. Coach Wes has helped me improve every aspect of my training from core strength and technical movements, to endurance and flexibility. Skills that were nearly impossible for me 6 months ago are now efficient and effortless, giving me more ways to train and improve my overall fitness level. For the more serious Crossfitter looking to see substantial gains, I wouldn't recommend anywhere else to train. Less
