Rome Strength and Fitness

"I started working out at Rome Strength and Fitness about three months ago, and it was the best thing I could have done for myself. As a mom of three young children, I haven’t made it a habit to prioritize my own health, but RSF has helped change that. It was a little intimidating at first, since a lot of the equipment and movements were new to me, but the coaches are all super helpful and have gone out of their way to help me modify movements so that I can excel on my own level and at my own pace. I do X4 and love the variety of exercises. Every day is something different, but equally as challenging as the day before. The accountability of group fitness is extremely helpful, as I wouldn’t have the motivation to push myself as hard if I were working out alone. I genuinely feel like the coaches care about my wellbeing and progress. I love RSF and am so thankful to have found it!"

"What I love most about RSF is the atmosphere! Both the coaches and other people I work out with are friendly and encouraging. The coaches also give great feedback to help push me and also ensure good form and therefore less injuries. I also love that we now have options of CrossFit and X4 Fitness (as well as open gym) to mix things up and keep it fresh."

"For whatever reason, I was always very hesitant to try RSF. However, a friend talked me into trying X4 and after one class I was sold. It's been almost a year and my X4 days are my favorite. I love how the classes feel like working out with family. There are always familiar faces that provide the accountability I need to get up early, with the encouragement I need to keep going. Joining a new gym can be daunting, but RSF made it an easy transition with a warm welcome."

"I have been around the figurative block with gyms and feel like Rome Strength and Fitness is offering something unique and beneficial in Rome. I have been going since June 2023 and I have been really impressed with how welcoming the community is, how knowledgeable the coaches are, and how professional the business/gym operates. People are genuinely friendly and supportive of one another, which makes this a great place to try if you are new to gyms. I go to the 5 am class and people say good morning/hello when you walk into the gym, which I almost couldn't believe at first. Then they kept saying hello and good morning even months later. At that point, I thought, I guess people are just friendly and glad to be here at 5 am. :) I was looking for a gym that would help get me out of a bit of a physical rut I found myself in after focusing on school and work for a few years. Starting to do the X4 classes has made me feel physically stronger and has really challenged me to push myself. I'm certain I wouldn't be able to push myself in new ways if it were not for the environment that RSF/X4 provide. I would highly recommend this gym/fitness community to people looking for something new and refreshing. I would probably keep going for the cold towels alone, but the other benefits I've mentioned make it worth it too."

"Rome Strength and Fitness (RSF) has impacted my fitness in more ways than one. I have not only done CrossFit workouts, but also x4 workouts! Both workouts have transformed my body and made me feel so strong. The staff at RSF have been able to help me get my body into shape to make my fitness goals come true ( which includes doing my first triathlon ever!!!!) When joining RSF, I was encouraged to try nutrition services with Amber Pewitt. I had been yo-yo dieting for years and was at a BMI level considered obsese. Jeff suggested that if I wanted to meet my weight goals the key was not only fitness but also nutrition. He could not have been more right!! Not only have I lost over 50 lbs but I have overcome Insomnia and gained confidence in my body that I didn’t think would ever be achievable. I had tried weight watchers, Keto, whole 30, etc. for 3 years trying to lose weight, but at the end of the day what I needed was to be educated on nutrition and to change the way I view food. Jeff and Amber gave me my life back and I am forever grateful for them. The family of people to workout with in both CrossFit and x4 is very different from other gyms. The desire to come to workouts is enforced by seeing friends at the gym and coaches that are Invested in your fitness goals. This type of accountability is unique because it’s not accompanied by guilt trips from your trainer, or financial repercussions for missing a class, but instead by people who are excited to workout as a group and want to share their fitness journey with you! This environment is created by x4/CrossFit coaches and members alike. Rome Strength and Fitness has forever changed my life for the better. I’m so thankful I took the jump to join, and want nothing more than to share the experience with others."
