Double Edge

First off, to call DE a «box» doesn’t do it justice. This is no garage gym. The space is immaculate, highly functional, spacious — everything you’d want in a high performance fitness facility. And Bathroom stalls that go all the way to the floor? What? Is this the Four Seasons?!
But it’s not just a pretty face. This gym prides itself on quality, thoughtful, and attentive coaching and they deliver. The coaches, though individuals, are consistent in their cues across the board, indicating a well trained staff that really cares enough to get it right. Leo is a bad ass and the rest of the staff were super helpful. Setting up a drop in was easy and email communication was prompt. I couldn’t be happier and this will be my go to CF facility when in town.
AND the members are super friendly. Two workouts run simultaneously so ninjas and beginners alike can work at their skill level.

Extremely modern and well maintained facility. Leo was an excellent coach and very friendly. the programming was awesome too, we had the choice to do a normal crossfit course or their Lean class. Thanks to the staff for the great time.

My boyfriend and I dropped in here while we were in town. All the coaches were very helpful and accommodating. The gym is amazing! Huge open space with a lot of equipment. Great atmosphere with good energy. I loved that there are two options in the workout between the lean and the CrossFit workout. The gym has multiple classes so it’s accommodating to everyone’s schedule!

One of the best CrossFit boxes I have dropped into around the US. Thanks for the great hospitality.

Knowledgeable, enthusiastic, empowering coaching staff. All of the staff members have CrossFit Level 1 Certifications, in addition to many specialty certifications, including USAW, Concept 2 Rowing, CF Mobility, and more. The coaches show their commitment not only by their words, but by their actions. Exceptional programming to meet personal needs. Encouraging environment. Multiple class times and class types available. Gorgeous facility. Beneficial to any level of fitness and willing to assist in promoting personal fitness goals. From powerlifting, to weightlifting, to skills, to yoga, to general fitness and health. Truly fitness founded on community. Definitely worth the drive from Carson City.

Double Edge is the best gym I have ever been a part of! They really stress the community experience. All of the coaches are extremely knowledgeable, qualified, and kind. I trust that every day I go to the gym I will work my booty off!!! The coaches and staff have created a really fun climate and all of the members respond in kind. Great place!

Hands down best gym in Reno. Amazing coaches that understand how to scale workouts to all levels to make sure you stay injury free and still get great results. Highly recommend giving it a try, you won’t regret it!

Me and my Wife started going a little over three months now. It has changed our lives. The environment is very welcoming for all skill levels. We bring our three kids and the play room keeps them happy for the whole time. Sabrina, Leo and everyone there are exceptional at what they do. Thanks Double edge.

I took a break from CrossFit for a couple of years and tried some different workout options including Pilates, yoga & just going to a gym on my own. I felt like I never enjoyed anything as much as CrossFit so I decided to check out Double Edge since it was closer than my previous gym. Just walking in the door there is a friendly atmosphere. Joel gave me information, but I did not feel pressured which I appreciated. He gave me a tour of their facility which included locker rooms & showers that not every box has. It also includes a store which is great for when you forget things or just want something new. I set up a time to do an assessment & was hooked again! The trainers are wonderful & knowledgeable. If you have any injuries they can help find movements that work for you. This box also sets up workouts that are challenging, but not so advanced that most people can’t do them. They have options if you are at the competitive level, but I like being able to work where I’m at & not feel intimidated. The class environments are supportive & everyone has a good time. Double Edge also offers a lot of workout times so it’s easy to find something that fits your schedule. I like the noon lunch class as they have made it so you can get back to work for an hour lunch break & the trainer, Sabrina, is amazing! Since joining Double Edge my fitness is better & I continue to improve:-) I love Double Edge!

This place is so awesome!
I am a novice and was encouraged by a friend to try this form of exercise out.
I should point out double edge is a great place to begin your crossfit journey as the coaches here are so friendly, informed, and actively interested in helping you maintain proper form as you navigate through all of their workout acronyms! (there are so many) :)
They emphasize developing a strong and safe foundation in technique and are fantastic at helping you build upon that. I think the trainers here are what makes Double Edge stand above the other crossfit gyms in Reno.
The members here are all very welcoming and encouraging as well. You immediately notice a familial environment upon entering Double Edge.
The facility and locker rooms are immaculate. You can tell the employees here take pride in their facility.
I didn’t expect to sign up for this! I already have about three different gym or club memberships, but this place is totally worth the investment :)

Double Edge Fitness presents a friendly environment, knowledgeable trainers and an energy that is fun and uplifting. After having participated for a year now, I know that I have found my «gym» home. The days I miss make me feel as if I’m missing out on more than a workout; the days I am there make me wonder why I’m not there more.
The Double Edge trainers have truly become a «family» to me… from the encouragement during a tough WOD; falling on the floor from a tough workout; and high fives for gains made. I appreciate the time and dedication they provide to create a productive and worthwhile experience for me.

This place really is amazing! I’ve never had a disappointing workout, always leave feeling better than when I arrived and continually look forward to returning.

So, first off there are a lot of good CrossFit gyms in the Reno/​Sparks area. However, I believe Double Edge is tops when it comes to facility, knowledgeable staff, friendly/​motivating environment, and equipment. Setting the bar extremely high.
I started going to Double Edge after my one year check up for having both my hips replaced and being cleared by my surgeon to go back to normal life with a few exceptions. At 34 years old knowing I have some limitations and borrowed time on my joints; finding an environment that puts safety first and has knowledgeable coaches was most important to me. I believe I have found both those among many other hard to find qualities in a gym at Double Edge.
Every session I attend the coaches are engaged and pushing everyone to achieve their best results. My questions are always answered and, with the help of the coaches, the different workouts are scaled to my ability or limitations when needed. Not only do they foster a hard working environment, they keep the work out fun. I feel better every time I finish a workout no matter how I’m feeling during it.
The schedule of workouts is another huge bonus, There is something going on pretty much all day starting at 5 am; not just a couple hours here and there like I’ve seen at other facilities. The bathrooms, sitting area, and gym floor are always spotless and organized. Another rare quality in any form of gym. Lastly as mentioned before but the members and staff couldn’t be more friendly or encouraging. In my opinion the best part of Double Edge Fitness.

Best gym around! If you are looking for trainers who ensure you aren’t injured and care about your success come check it out. I have worked with every trainer and have learned something new from each and every one of them.

Just updating my previous review. The Skills class today was awesome! The trainers really care that you don’t hurt yourself, but they also want you to work to the best of your ability.
Everyone is encouraging, and I’ve never been in a session where I felt intimated, or where there were the «Do you even lift, bro?» sort of folks.
If you walk in & have never done CrossFit before, but think: «Hey, I’m in shape. Piece of cake!», prepare to have your butt handed to you! You will sweat from places you never knew you had!
The great new thing is that they’ve partnered with local eateries in MidTown/​Downtown to come up with Paleo Bowls or Paleo Rolls (for sushi) that help you eat clean without giving up flavor. Several people went & got bowls today that smelled so wonderful! Full of kale & chicken! Mmmm!
But this isn’t a good review! Bottom line is that they have classes starting super early, and classes for all skill levels. The Masters Class is perfect for those starting out, so you WON’T get hurt «doing CrossFit». And don’t be surprised when a woman twice your age can bench press like a boss!

Absolutely love this gym! Great facility, the equipment is well maintained and the staff is very profession, welcoming and knowledgeable. They offer many different classes besides just CrossFit, they offer a competitors class, Olympic weightlifting, mobility, skills and soon an endurance class. There are also massage therapists available at great rates. Everyone (members included) are very nice as well, which makes for a great community setting.

Wow… I’m so impressed by this facility. Double Edge CrossFit and Fitness is an outstanding place, not only in the brand spanking new facility and equipment (showers, kids room, gear shop!) but as well with the coaches and the people they hire that have a passion for fitness and physical health.
I dropped in twice while I was there and immediately wished that I lived in Reno just so I could work out here full time. The classes have a great thorough warm up, the programming was fun and exciting, and they have mobility focus at the end of each class, which I have never found in any other CrossFit box.
Keep it up Double Edge. You guys are great and I can’t wait to come back and visit you guys again.

It was such a pleasure to train at this gym the past week and a half. As a Crossfit coach, I couldn’t be more impressed with the facility and coaching.
I appreciate its access to all fitness levels by providing a one-​on-​one into/​fitness assessment to all new members, as well as giving the option for a «Foundational» or «Dynamic» workout for its group classes.
Not only is the coaching staff welcoming and educated, but they are excited about their community. I noticed that every coach knew each member’s name.
The facility is huge and beautiful, and, from what I heard, there’s more to come. They’ve got exceptional equipment and a killer rig. The bathrooms are incredible, and perfect for those heading to work immediately following their workout.
I enjoyed my time here so much, that I brought my brother in to sign up yesterday.

I worked out at this gym at 6am today, «dropping in» as a visiting Crossfitter. What a sweet setup! Locker room, massage room, gift shop, all new gear, roomy, brick walls, great light, parking. Quite an improvement over the traditional warehouse. I felt very welcome and will be back when I’m in town.

I was a out of town «drop in» this morning at 0500 hours, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with my experience. Helpful staff got me situated and comfortable. It can be a little intimidating working out at a new box for the first time.
The facility was top notch and the experience made me want to come back for a second workout in the same day. I just didn’t want to lose any gains and I PR’d my squat today. So I was very excited and happy to continue working out, even when I was away from home. Very happy with my experience at Double Edge Crossfit.
Ps. Thank you Unilocaler’s it was your comments that led me to call and try DE Crossfit. Keep up the good Unilocaling!
