We have the most qualified coaches around that are experienced in modifying or scaling workouts for each individual's needs and ability. Our staff is committed to ensuring each member gets the most out of their fitness experience, whether doing CrossFit, X4, or personal training.
History
2013 CrossFit RTR opened in August 2013 inside the local YMCA. We started in a small 1400sq foot room located on the 2nd floor, only accessible by staircase. Our membership outgrew our space, exceeding over 100 members in less than a year. We began the search for our new location, realizing the importance to stay centrally located in the downtown Tuscaloosa area. We also love being near the UA campus and we needed space to better serve our community, as well as to continue to grow the RTR family. 2015 CrossFit RTR moved to the current location in January 2015, and more than doubled the membership within the first year. CrossFit RTR continued to grow and solidify ourselves as the premier CrossFit facility in the Tuscaloosa area, while establishing a strong coaching staff and community that loves and supports one another. 2018 CrossFit RTR continued to expand the services available to our members and the Tuscaloosa community by adding the RTR Smoothie Bar in August 2018.
