I had such an amazing experience at Crossfit Insight. I have social anxiety and a bad back so I was very nervous to go and be surrounded by very fit people while I could barely lift 10lbs. As soon as I met Wayne he was very reassuring and told me how encouraging everyone at the gym is, not just the coaches. I also was given the option of modified versions of every workout so that I could still work the same muscles but not aggravate my back. Wayne and Brenda are such genuine people who want to help you reach your goal. Everyone who goes there is amazing too, it is like a little community. When you are trying your best they are all right there with you, cheering you on!

I am 55 and have level 3 osteoarthritis in both knees which limited my range of motion and flexibility. I have been going to physiotherapy for a few months to help with pain and with strengthening exercises. I found that I needed more motivation with the exercises and assistance with losing some weight as well, I wanted to do everything and anything that would help improve my situation.

I came across CrossFit Insight’s 6 week challenge on Facebook …. This is what I need and asked my physiotherapist if she thought it would be a good idea to try this exercises to strengthening those muscles…. I then met with Coach Wayne and is one of the owners and he explained that they would work with my physiotherapist and how CrossFit helps improve with everyday tasks, that was it.sign me up for the challenge. I followed the diet (meal plan), nutrition and food guide. That alone was an amazing and delicious way to start…. Then came the most terrifying moment, my first class, I was very nervous and with knots in my stomach…. Yikes…I walked in and was greeted with such kindness and so very friendly…which made everything I was feeling leave and have enjoyed everything and everyone at CrossFit Insight. Coaches are just amazing and are always fantastic at giving ways to improve.

The highly personalized coaching that is available and the nature of the workout that is scalable for all abilities makes this the best gym experience I’ve ever seen!
04 June 2020 14:04
I cannot recommend this place enough! It’s such a supportive community! Everyone cheers everybody else on and you never feel judged if you have to modify the workouts. The workouts are always different and never boring. I just finished the 6 week challenge and I’m noticing a huge difference in my body composition. I love it so much that I am joining!

When I first joined the Crossfit Insight challenge, I was looking for something to give me that extra push, and help me get back into the healthy active lifestyle I once had. This place has had an overwhelmingly positive impact on my life. I have lost 17 pounds, all my clothes that were once too tight are now too baggy. I am noticeably stronger and more flexible. Thanks to their nutrition plan, my diet is healthy, delicious and actually saving me money. I have more energy and confidence than I have had in years.

The staff at Crossfit Insight are the real deal. They are all super passionate about fitness, I have never seen people actually enjoy intense physical exercise so much. Specifically Wayne, Holly and Brenda have helped me really improve my form. They took time inside and outside of class to give me one on one coaching, which really took this experience to the next level.

I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, you can get something out of Crossfit Insight. They will cater to your needs, and help you crush your fitness goals.

If you’ve been considering making a move to get in shape, or wanting to make healthy improvements to your lifestyle, CrossFit Insight is the place to go. After witnessing the transformation of a co-worker, I signed up for the 6 Week Challenge myself. The supportive and knowledgeable staff coached me through every aspect - be it working through dietary concerns or helping to modify exercises so that I was still reaping the benefits of the workouts. As a 40+ year old woman on the heavier side (when I began), I never once felt judged or out of place. It is a very energetic and supportive atmosphere. I highly recommend!

No regrets! If you are pondering - go for it!
Each staff member I encountered while at Insight was encouraging and pushed me - but were not over the top. This is a real place with real people. No intimidation. Don't ever be afraid to reach out for support - they truly want you to succeed. I did - in 6 weeks, I dropped 8lbs and 6%bf. After 8 weeks, I had to move. I miss the Insight atmosphere.

Such an amazing atmosphere! I absolutely love doing class workouts here because even though we are all at different fitness levels, we are all doing the workout together and we make each other stronger! The members are so nice, when they see a new face they introduce themselves to you! The staff is great and very motivating! Everyone is so welcoming and they genuinely want other members to do well and succeed.i love coming here honestly its one of the best gyms i have ever been to!

I’m in my fifth week of the six week challenge. From start until now I have felt challenged, supported and encouraged. I’m very close to my goal. Need to get over a bit of a plateau. My favorite part of this experience has been the welcoming and team atmosphere. Thanks.
28 May 2020 12:20
A place where you can continually push your limits! If you need to get back into shape come here.

I’m 4 weeks in to my 6 week challenge at CrossFit Insight. I hadn’t been to the gym for 10 years and had no experience at CrossFit. My goal is to be heart healthy, leaner, stronger and lose some weight. In 4 weeks I’m feeling that already! I’ve lost 10lbs and 4.5% body fat! I have energy like I used to have in my 20’s at 51!
I love the classes. I always feel so welcome and comfortable. Each week I improve and can start to see the changes. I look forward to every class as all the trainers are amazing! My 6 week challenge is turning into my lifestyle. The challenge was pushing myself to do it! My only regret is not doing it sooner! I highly recommend CrossFit Insight for all ages and fitness levels.

I signed up for the 6 week challenge in June with my SUP Race season already started. I was an alternate athlete for the Pan Am Games with Team Canada in August 2019 but as excited as I was about that, I was still left deflated and unmotivated knowing I had come so close to my dreams but not quite close enough. I had spent the past 3 years trying to get pregnant but really focused all winter long so that I could instead be motivated by a separate goal, but nothing was working and I knew I needed help.
The coaches at CrossFit Insight lit a fire in me and as I trained I gained muscle I lost body fat, I gained confidence & energy, I lost the frustration & the slump that was holding me back. I was thrilled to see the changes in my performance on the water too. I gained speed & balance on my stand up Paddleboard, I reduced my times and started gaining positions on the boys. While training at CrossFit Insight, I won every single race I entered, the results were astounding! I had set the 6 week challenge to end the weekend of the Eastern Canadian Championships, a race I had been trying to win for almost a decade. I was absolutely thrilled to take the win after all of the hard work and fun I had at the gym, it seemed I was getting everything I had hoped for.
But the best result of all, was in my final week of the Challenge when my body fat started to go up and I confirmed that I was in fact pregnant. Everyone always told me if I pushed my body to hard it wouldn’t happen and here I was pushing myself harder then ever but feeling incredible and now I get to create a new life with the best start possible, healthy, happy, motivated and grateful!
I have so much gratitude towards CrossFit Insight, all of the amazing coaches and students who give 100% effort every day and come out realizing their dreams also.
If you are ready to change your life for the better, I suggest starting right here at CrossFit Insight ‍

I’m happy with the results of the 6 week challenge! In 6 weeks I had support to follow a tailored nutrition plan, had access to a variety of fitness sessions and met some amazing people. To top it off I lost 30.2 lbs! You can do this program! Disappointed that they don’t provide an exit/maintenance nutrition plan though.
23 May 2020 15:41
This is one of my favourite places to workout the staff are supportive, the workouts are challenging and the people are great.
16 May 2020 22:42
So happy with my decision to walk in Crossfit that morning! The staff & members are all so supportive & you instantly feel like family. Highly recommend joining.whether it’s for the 6 week challenge or being a regular gym member, you won’t be disappointed with the gym’s energy! My goal was to lose 6% body fat in my 6 week challenge & I’m proud to say I lost 6.8%. So thank you Crossfit for pushing me to succeed!

Starting off the 6 week crossfit insight challenge, I honestly didn’t think I could do it. I had terrible eating habits and loved most junk foods, so the meal plan seemed like a big challenge. I am also a very picky eater so I wasn't sure how I would still get enough food in me without going outside the guidelines. After the meal plan was explained to me, I felt a lot better about it and realized that there are a lot of healthy foods that I can choose from and actually enjoy. My first week definitely wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I just planned ahead and followed the meal plan. Drinking a lot of water with BCAas in it definitely helped me reach my goal because it provided me with a sweet taste without eating junk food. Right from the beginning I really enjoyed the metcon classes and sometimes would even go on random runs because I felt so healthy and fit. Throughout the challenge there were a few times where I went to events and I had to either eat before, bring my own food or alter the food to try to fit it into the challenge guidelines. Eating clean and working out really became my routine and after the first week I didn't find it that challenging. The metcon classes are always challenging but it's the most accomplishing feeling when you put your all into it and finish the class. My end result was loosing 10 pounds 7.2% bodyfat. Overall, the 6 week crossfit insight challenge provided me with amazing results and a new healthy lifestyle.

There's a lot of hype about CrossFit not all of it is good. I'm happy to say that CrossFit insight is all of the good with none of the bad. The community is one of the best I've had the chance to be part. The trainer's are fantastic they provide the perfect push to get you through your workouts on your way to crushing your goals.

I have recently started at Crossfit Insight and LOVE the atmosphere and encouragement from everyone. This includes staff AND peers! Workouts are finished with high fives and chats about our next workout. I feel that this will be a lifelong relationship! THANK YOU for reigniting my love for fitness!
06 May 2020 6:57
Crossfit Insight is a great way to start getting into the habit of being physically active.

The coaches there are always ready to help, accommodate, and motivate you to hey through your workouts!

I would like to see a few more class hours for the barbell basics and yoga, but besides that the regular operating hours are perfect for most types of job types!
27 April 2020 6:15
I have just completed the 6 week challenge and feel great. It really took the 6 weeks to get into a grove of showing up and being able to make it through the WOD's. All the staff/trainers have been encouraging and will work with you regardless of your limits
24 April 2020 13:35
When I'm out of town, I love to try new gyms. This is definitely one of the best I've been to. The coach was excellent and the members were very friendly. Highly recommend stopping in!
22 April 2020 23:17
CrossFit Insight has changed my life! I was never really interested in joining a gym. In the past I worked out at home on my own. My workouts were sporadic and I only got mediocre results. My wife did CrossFit Insight's 6 Week Challenge and I was amazed at her results. After that, I decided to do the challenge as well. I was given a meal plan and a workout schedule that was easy to follow. The coaches are awesome: friendly, encouraging and cater to all skill levels and abilities. I was blown away with my results. Their simple plan has changed my lifestyle and taken me to a whole new level of health in terms of my nutrition and fitness that I never thought was possible!
20 April 2020 22:09
My Crossfit challenge has come to an end and I must say I attended classes, worked hard and I met my goal of losing over 6% body fat. I feel better than I have in years.
Thank you Jody, Holly and all the staff at CrossFit Insight Barrie for welcoming me, supporting me and being my biggest cheerleaders. It really is like a family environment with all the good jobs and high fives. A gym is a gym but the people, staff and program at CrossFit Insight make you want to be there every day.
I can’t thank you all enough, I highly recommend this gym and now off to buy some new clothes
16 April 2020 10:06
I just completed my 6 week Challenge! I Crushed it losing 16 pounds and 7.8% body fat:) I just wanted to thank each and every one of the trainers for your exceptional teaching skills and patience. I am soon hitting the dreaded over the Hill mark and CrossFit Insight has made this something to look forwards to. Once again thank you all so much! I look and feel great! I not only reached but passed my goal:)
15 April 2020 2:14
A great atmosphere to work out in. The workouts are challenging, but the staff are very encouraging and can modify the exercises to suit all levels of ability. I saw great results with the six-week challenge. If you're thinking about making a lifestyle change which includes exercise, I highly recommend CrossFit Insight!
12 April 2020 22:07
Fantastic experience! In 6 weeks I feel slimmer, healthier and stronger. I lost 13 lbs and 7.6% body fat. With the extra muscle I’ve gained I haven’t looked more vibrant. 50 years young and haven’t felt better. I signed up for a full membership. Thanks to the staff.
11 April 2020 5:05
Never would I have thought to see myself joining a Crossfit gym however I decided to do their 6 week challenge and was immediately impressed. Not only were the classes filled with encouragement and motivation, I found myself competing not with just others but with my personal records and times making the workouts fly by and actually had a blast. I started seeing results immediately and would 100% recommend Crossfit insight to anyone who is on the fence or has doubted Crossfit.
09 April 2020 7:32
I started with CrossFit Insight about 6 weeks ago as I joined the 6 week challenge, and at first I was sceptical about starting because I've heard many different things from people about CrossFit. Honestly, I am so glad I signed up it has made me to become a healthier person and has made me want to continue my fitness/ health journey! The classes are amazing they are always different every single day and you are sweating after each single class. Also, the coaches are awesome they are motivating and push you to keep going when you're getting tired through a rep/set during the workout. I am so glad I became apart of this amazing community!

I joined Crossfit Insight almost 6 weeks ago because knew I needed to make a change in my level of health and wellness and I was looking for a place that could help me with fitness and nutrition support. I’ve never belonged to a gym because I find them a little intimidating.

I initially chose Crossfit Insight because of the location, but I quickly found the instructors incredibly positive, supportive and encouraging, and I found the other members are pretty much the same, but more importantly, people like me just trying to live a healthier lifestyle.

What I really liked about the workouts is that they were challenging but not impossible, and you could modify any of the exercises for your level of fitness or limitations, and they were fun. The offer a variety of class times so you can fit it into your schedule easily.

I was also surprised by how much knowledge I gained about food and nutrition, and how much better I felt by making changes in some of my food choices. It wasn’t a diet but rather a lifestyle change in what I eat.

I would recommend Crossfit Insight to anyone who wants to make a change in their health and doesn’t know where to start. You can do it, and if you doubt yourself, the Crossfit Insight team and other members will be there to encourage and support you all the way.

If i could give this gym/program 10 stars I would.
I went into this program weighing the heaviest I ever have after returning from my first year of university. My cardiovascular endurance was at rock bottom and I felt weak and defeated. From the minute I walked into the gym, I felt welcomed and encouraged by not only the staff at Crossfit Insight, but also by the fellow challengers/members. Day by day I felt motivated, supported and and encouraged by everyone in this gym as they truly wanted me to reach my goal and more importantly, feel the best I ever have. I am finishing my 6 weeks not only in the best shape I have ever been in, but also the happiest and strongest and most confident I have ever felt.
I cannot say enough good things about this gym, the 6 week challenge, the staff and the sense of community at Crossfit Insight. I will be telling EVERYONE I know about this gym and the amazing things that have come from my physical, mental and emotional transformation.
Safe to say that joining this gym is one of the best and most rewarding things that has ever happened to me!

Crossfit Insight's 6 week challenge was an incredible experience! I loved the atmosphere of the workouts, feels like a team, everyone encouraging you to do and be your best. With a lot of hard work and diligence my challenge was met, preparation was definitely the key to staying on plan with the nutrition aspect and the people and coaching was encouraging and challenging! The 6 week challenge has helped me to get into the best shape I have been in more than 20 years! A great kick in the pants to get me heading in the right direction with my health and fitness!
24 May 2019 14:36
At 4 weeks into the challenge I feel great, am seeing improvements in my strength and conditioning and enjoy going to the gym each day. It is a great community to be part of, everyone is fun, welcoming and encouraging. You don't need to be at any certain level of fitness to join and benefit from the greatness of crossfit insight! Looking forward to the changes I can continue to make for my body and my life, as a part of this great gym!

I originally went to the orientation to do the 6 week challenge. After the orientation I decided not to do the challenge and just sign up on a regular membership. The owners never tried to change my mind or convince me to do the 6 week challenge. I have noticed tremendous change in my stamina, endurance and energy levels! The classes are always different so you never get bored. Coaches are amazing and the members are so motivating. I have tried every workout under the sub including spending thousands of dollars on personal trainers. This is the first gym I have attended that I don’t dread going to!
07 May 2019 21:45
I came to Crossfit on a 6 week challenge. Loved it and stayed. Unfortunately life threw some curve balls at me and I've been away for 5 months. Missing the people, the exercise and how I felt about myself I returned today. It was hard but I did it and I will be back on Thursday. Thanks to all for the warm welcome back and the encouragement.
12 April 2019 1:24
This place is amazing! Everyone is so friendly and very supportive, you immediately feel like your part of one big social family! All the coaches know exactly how to push you to succeed and recognize every one of PBs with you like you’ve just won a world record. No matter what level your at; new to fitness, getting back into it or just looking for a new gym, I highly recommend CrossFit Insight!
09 April 2019 19:43
I signed up for their 6 week challenge at the beginning of the year after seeing my coworkers go through it. I ended up dropping 22 lbs and 5% body fat in 6 weeks. I have now switched over to being a regular member. This place has fantastic coaches, and a great community. There is no body shaming or showing off that you sometimes find in the bigger gyms. Just a great group of people trying to get better. I used to think crossfit was for the super fit only, but I couldn't be more wrong. Yeah you work hard, but you get results. If you're looking to get fit and lose some weight I highly recommend signing up for the 6 week challenge.
26 March 2019 23:25
I signed up for the Crossfit Challenge Jan 5.2019. This is hard work but the instructors are great and the vibe there is very nice. No fashion show. Show up and work hard. I lost 12 lbs and 4 % body fat but more so I feel strong and my junk doesn’t jiggle. I’m keeping it up cause I get better every week. I’m 55 but keeping up with the young chikitas jut fine. Thank You Crossfit Insight!
24 March 2019 16:10
I was a bit unsure when I first joined, not sure what I was in for, or if this was even for me.
They were an amazingly welcoming group of people to which I am proud to be a part of now.
The staff and other members are a great support group to help you find and create a new you. Everyday you can get better and be better.
I have told all that would listen - this is a great place to go!
14 March 2019 18:21
6week CrossFit challenge complete. I never would have been able to do this without CrossFit Insight! After my baby I gained 14lbs in a month. I knew I was on a bad path. With my coach Jody Aldebert and all the amazing instructors I crushed my goals. Anyone who needs motivation, accountability, hardcore yet fun workouts in a great atmosphere. CrossFit Insight is for you!
13 February 2019 19:51
The 6 Week Challenge @ Cross fit Insight was EXACTLY what I needed to jump start a new chapter in my life. This is by no means any typical gym. The approach is very balanced with coach lead exercises, a proper meal plan and a very positive environment that keeps the motivation alive and well. If you want to lose weight, get physically fit and feel better period, physically and mentally then I highly recommend contacting Jody or Wayne at Cross fit Insight to take that first step to a new you. I lost 33 lbs in their 6 Week Challenge and feel awesome. Only you can start the change and with their coaching they can help you achieve your goals.
10 January 2019 19:21
I have never been to a gym in my life and was not very interested in ever joining one. I’m not a person who believes in food restriction or over exercising. My best friend joined this gym and was telling me about the support and encouragement she received and she was eating real food. This led me to join with hopes of balanced wellness. I was skeptical and embarrassed that I may not be able to do what they asked. Something I never needed to worry about. The coaches are fantastic and the environment is amazing. I have experienced beautiful moments of support with other members and really challenging moments. I am able to do things I never thought I could simply because a coach tells me I can and then watches me do it. I love my 3 days a week!
08 January 2019 0:22
I definitely joined Crossfit with hesitation. I had assumed I knew what it was all about based on bits and pieces of information I had heard over the past couple of years. I was so wrong. Everyone at Crossfit Insight is so supportive, friendly and really does want to help you make the changes you are there to make.
The workouts are hard but every minute you feel stronger, the support on what to eat, reaching your goals is endless. If you ever thought for a second that you couldn't do crossfit or that it was too hard for you, then YOU need to join. You are stronger than you think!
I joined for a 6 week challenge and I have continued to stay with crossfit Insight because it is like a second family!
03 January 2019 3:59
Joining the challage was the best thing I could have done. If you are even thinking about joining. Just do it.
Absolutely a life changeing experience
The coaches and staff are amazing. Easy to talk to and great motivatiors to success.
