"Great gym, great people. In addition to being ridiculously hilarious, Amanda is probably the best personal trainer in Cumming. Actually, the state of Georgia. I came to her with an injury and specific needs for my training. She effortlessly put together programming that respected my limitations while still challenging me. She is patient, encouraging, and her cues are on point. If you're shopping for a trainer in North Forsyth, do yourself a favor and work with her!"

"I've always been someone who worked out regularly, but I had never tried CrossFit before joining this gym. It's been one of the best fitness decisions I've made. The workouts challenge you physically and mentally, and getting the opportunity to compete in local competitions has made it even more fun.

What stands out the most is the community. The environment is incredibly positive and supportive. Everyone encourages each other and pushes one another to be better, no matter where you are in your fitness journey.

Great coaching, great people, and a great place to push yourself!"

"I have never done CrossFit even though I have worked out for years. This gym is not intimidating and the coaching really helped me with form on movements I do not know how to do. Super fun environment too."

When you start at Lanier Strength & Conditioning, your fitness level will improve quickly, usually in the first 30 days. The key to see results is consistency and commitment over time so that's why we recommend 3 classes per week as a start.

Yes! We provide guidance on eating right or sleeping well which can help maximize energy levels – getting YOU maximum results from your efforts.

Nope! Most of our members start just like you. We assess each new members fitness level. Then our workouts are "universally scaled", with a different version of each days workout designed for every level. As you level up you can take on more challenging variants of the workout if you desire.

We are locally owned and purpose built to make an impact on the health and happiness in Cumming and the surrounding area. You're not just a number here, everyone knows your name. We're a community of like-minded people that wants you to show up and supports each other on this journey to live better lives – with no judgement or criticism along the way.

If you're a beginner and just starting out then 2-4 times per week will be enough to see results and allow you to adjust. You'll be sore some days, so allow yourself recovery days between training sessions at first – over the course of the following months work up towards 5 days per week if you want to maximize!

We offer an exciting, challenging and varied programming which will keep it fun! The workouts are published in advance. Some days are more strength focused where will focus on our lifts. Movements like barbell squats, kettlebell swings and occasionally some olympics lifts will be included. Other days, we may focus more on cardio & conditioning with rowers and bikes. Some days are focused on body weight movements like pushups, sit-ups, and pull-ups. Some days are a mix of everything.

Each class is 60 minutes and led by qualified coaches. We always start together with a warm-up designed to activate the muscles being used in the workout. The coach will brief on the group on the workout, the movements, and the proper form. During the workout, the coach will be guiding and providing instruction. At the end of class, we will cool down together to accelerate recovery and reduce potential injury.
