Crossfit Override - Thomaston, Connecticut

I can’t say enough good things about this CrossFit gym! The coaches strike the perfect balance between motivational “tough love”, friendly humor, and genuine compassion. They know how to push you to your limits while keeping the experience enjoyable and encouraging. The atmosphere here is fantastic! Clean, bright, perfect temperature, music always playing an upbeat tune, and with all the equipment you could need for a great workout, especially if you like to roll around and contort yourself with weird mobility workouts like I do during ‘open gym’ hours. Otherwise, the class schedule is plentiful and can fit into anyone’s calendar (the 5am class is very popular!).

What I love most, though, is the sense of community. It feels like a group of friends who genuinely care about each other’s progress, holding one another accountable in the best way possible. This kind of camaraderie is exactly what I’ve needed to stay consistent with my fitness goals, which is something I just couldn’t get from working out at home. If you’re looking for a supportive and uplifting environment, CrossFit Override is the place to be!

CrossFit Override is nothing shy of an amazing gym. I’ve been coming here for roughly 4 months now and I am so happy I found Override! The coaches are awesome and help you though each and every workout, they have awesome programs (like the nutrition program I just finished and won an awesome Ninja Creami) and you make some awesome friends along the way. They take the guesswork out of having to guess your workouts every day and each class is fun and invigorating. I can’t stress enough how fun this place is and how anyone (beginner or pro) should come check it out!

I’ve been a part of the CrossFit Override community for about a year now, and it’s been an incredible experience. The positive and supportive atmosphere here is unmatched—no matter what your goals are, everyone encourages you to push your limits and grow. Nick Marsh and Eric are fantastic owners and have built a team of knowledgeable and dedicated coaches who genuinely care about helping you succeed. The staff is always helpful and welcoming, making this place feel like a second home. I highly recommend CrossFit Override to anyone looking for a motivating, results-driven fitness community!

My wife had been a member of CFO for almost two years and she had been gently encouraging me to come see what it was all about. I finally gave in and went with her during a "Bring a Friend" week in January 2024 and I haven't looked back! I am a person who had never played sports or done a workout in my life. I'm now in my mid-forties and it was starting to show. CFO has gotten me in the best shape of my life and I'm enjoying every minute of the journey. All of the coaches here truly care about your health, nutrition, and and well-being. The workouts are tough but very rewarding. All of the members are very welcoming and encouraging. It's like a big family. You will not find a better group of people to help you find your path to overall fitness.

I’ve been admiring Override from a far for quite some time now, I was just always nervous/hesitant to make the jump.. finally, two good friends who are active members convinced me to make the switch. I’m so glad I’m here. The community and positivity of each of the coaches as well as the members is truly uplifting. No matter the class size the coaches always make sure to give you that individualized attention and feedback. No matter your experience or level of fitness, you leave each class feeling accomplished and proud of yourself.

Great gym. All the equipment you need and great coaching. The coaches work with each athlete based on their abilities or limitations. Everyone regardless of age or condition is welcomed. Also a great group of athletes who work together in an inviting environment to make it a tough but fun daily workout. I highly recommend CrossFit Override.

Shout out to coach Bill for pushing me to join override during my second stint of physical therapy after a car accident. I was nervous to get back into after my knee I hurt but he assured me that Override would work with my injury. I joined fundamentals with Marshall and it was awesome! Amazing coach and amazing people to work out. After a change I. Jobs I got the push to get back into regular CrossFit classes and despite being worried I wasn’t good enough, I have been able to fit right in. I have never been to a gym with so many kind, encouraging, and supportive members! Not once have I felt judged and I actually feel
Comfortable to try and push myself because even if I fail I have a community of support to help pick me up and try again!!

I have lifted heavier than I ever have and feel stronger than ever!! Another thing I love is that if you miss a few days a coach reaches out to make sure you are okay, not to shame or guilt you! They genuinely care here and not once do I feel like a paycheck in their system!

I participated in my first CrossFit competition nervously however, with my family, friends and the CrossFit override family around I did my best and was proud!

If you are considering a new gym or looking for a change CrossFit Override is the place to be!!
