OUR STORY

Camelback CrossFit has been a cornerstone of the Scottsdale fitness community for over a decade. CBCF has grown into one of the most respected — and most affordable — CrossFit affiliates in the valley.

Located at 2950 N. Hayden Rd in the heart of Scottsdale, we offer a welcoming environment where beginners and elite athletes train side by side. No class size limits. No egos. Just hard work and great people. Our programming is designed to challenge every fitness level while building functional strength that carries over into real life.

We believe fitness is built in community. We offer unlimited memberships with no contracts because we believe once you walk in, you won't want to leave. Every rep, every class, every high-five after a brutal WOD — that's what makes CBCF different. We're not just a gym. We're a crew.

AS SEEN IN NIKE

Camelback CrossFit was selected as the filming location for a Nike Metcon commercial — a testament to our facility, our athletes, and the energy that fills our box every single day. When Nike needed authenticity, they came to CBCF.
