The Facility

OpenBox Athletics was created to answer the question: “What would we want in a wellness facility that specializes in strength, conditioning, and Crossfit?” From the equipment selection to the lobby layout, we carefully thought out each aspect of the design of OpenBox Athletics to provide for the best possible client experience. 

From our Rogue Fitness equipped main gym floor, to our finishes and aesthetic throughout the entire space, we seek to deliver a truly unique member experience unmatched in our market. We believe that the space you exercise in should be a reflection of the product you are paying for. No one wants to work out in a basement, looking at mismatched floor tiles, dealing with Summer heat and humidity with no air conditioning. We believe that a gym should take as much pride in its appearance as its ability to deliver health and wellness to its clients.

  • Nearly 14,000 square foot facility split between our adjacent buildings

  • High-efficiency heating and cooling systems throughout entire space

  • High Volume, Low Speed Overhead fans over both gym floors
