A hundred and three reviews at a flat 5.0 is a hard thing to do in CrossFit, where the format attracts opinions. Spitfire manages it from the Caston Industrial Estate on Salhouse Road, on the Sprowston and Thorpe boundary, and it is the highest rated functional gym in the city by a clear margin.

Weekday hours run from six in the morning to half nine at night, which covers both ends of a working day, and weekends are a morning block from half eight to half twelve. That is a class timetable rather than an open floor, and it is the right structure for the sport. Beginners should say so when they call, because coached entry is the whole point of paying box prices.
