Inside CrossFit Bodmin gym during a training session

About CrossFit Bodmin

Coach-led functional fitness in Cornwall since 2019.

Our Story

CrossFit Bodmin was founded in 2019 on a simple belief: fitness should keep people healthy for the long term, not just for a few weeks. We wanted to build a place where people could train intelligently, stay consistent, and genuinely enjoy the process — for years, not months.

We know your time matters. Every session is coach-led, programmed with purpose, and designed to get results without wasting a minute. Whether you have 3 hours a week or 6, we make them count. That respect for people's time and commitments is at the heart of how we train.

What started as a small group of friends training together has grown into a proper community. Based at Callywith Industrial Estate, Just off the A30, our 5 qualified coaches work with everyone from complete beginners to competitive athletes — all training side by side, all moving well, all getting stronger.

What Our Members Say

★★★★★

I made the decision to join CrossFit Bodmin at a time when lots of changes were happening in my life and thought I should go for the most important change which was to slim down and get fit. Several years of challenging emotional hits had put the weight on my body and my ability to exercise dwindled. I was the heaviest I had ever become.

How has my fitness changed? It feels like it happens stealthily. From literally vomiting after my first induction training, I am now back running half marathon distances regularly. I do not feel breathless walking up hills. I can lift heavy pots and compost when I am gardening much more easily. It is about transforming all the things I can now do better and with ease in every day life.

What is the best part for me? My work schedule is chaotic and no matter which class I show up to, I know I will have friends to talk to and encourage me. Every session has mixed abilities and we all get to inspire each other. You also get coached by different experts and that turns into identifying ways to improve every way.

I had never done CrossFit before joining and was nervous about not being fit enough. The coaches made me feel welcome from day one and every workout is scaled to my level.
