CFK Gym is Carmarthen's home of CrossFit and functional fitness. Expert coaching, a genuinely supportive atmosphere, and programming that works — for complete beginners and seasoned athletes alike.
Saturday Open Gym now extended to 12:00. Sunday Foundations class added from April.
View ScheduleCFK Gym was born out of a simple belief: that everyone deserves access to world-class coaching in a space where they genuinely belong. We opened our doors in Carmarthen in 2018 and have been building one of the most welcoming fitness communities in West Wales ever since.
We are a CrossFit affiliate — which means our programming is rooted in constantly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity. But beyond the methodology, what makes CFK special is the people. From your first nervous session to your hundredth, you will never train alone here.
Whether you have never stepped foot in a gym before, or you are chasing competition podiums, our coaches scale and adapt every session to meet you exactly where you are.
Five distinct disciplines, one roof, one community. Every programme is coach-led, properly programmed, and designed to get you results.
Our flagship group class. One hour of coached, high-intensity functional fitness — a warm-up, skill or strength work, then the Workout of the Day (WOD). Scaled for every ability, led by a coach who knows your name.
One-to-one coaching tailored entirely around your goals. Build a programme specific to you, make faster progress, and get the undivided attention of an expert coach.
Learn the snatch and clean & jerk — arguably the most technical and rewarding lifts in all of sport. Dedicated sessions focused purely on technique, strength, and efficiency under the bar.
Build the bodyweight strength that underpins everything in CrossFit and sport. Pull-ups, ring work, handstands, muscle-ups — developed methodically from the ground up.
Full access to the training floor, rig, barbell bays, and all equipment during designated open times. Ideal for extra practice, competition prep, or following your own programme.
Classes run year-round. Bank holiday schedules are posted on our social media. Book via the Wodify app.

Officially affiliated with CrossFit HQ, meaning our programming, standards, and coaching credentials are held to a global standard.
We do not sort people by fitness level or experience. Day one and ten years in look different, but the welcome is exactly the same.
Members track every lift, every time, every rep. Progress is not guessed — it is measured, recorded, and celebrated.
Early mornings, lunchtime, and evening slots available six days a week. Book via the app and join from wherever life has you.
Our coaches are not just qualified — they train, they compete, and they care. Every one of them is here because they genuinely want to help you get better.
Rhys has been coaching CrossFit since 2015 and founded CFK alongside his wife after years of being part of boxes across South Wales. A passionate programmer and technically gifted weightlifting coach, Rhys leads the gym's strength programming and competition team.
A former regional CrossFit competitor, Sarah now channels that experience into coaching athletes at every level. She specialises in movement quality, injury prevention, and making first-timers feel immediately at home. She leads CFK's personal training programme.
Dan began as a competitive gymnast before discovering CrossFit in 2016. He now runs CFK's dedicated weightlifting and gymnastics skill sessions, blending the technical discipline of both sports into some of the most popular classes on the timetable.
All coaches hold current first aid certification and undergo continuing professional development.

I walked in absolutely terrified — I was 42, overweight, and had not done any exercise in eight years. Within a month I felt stronger than I had in my twenties. The coaches are extraordinary. They scale everything, nobody judges you, and on the days you want to quit they somehow make you finish. CFK genuinely changed my life.
I had been doing CrossFit for three years at a different box before I moved to Carmarthen. CFK is on another level for coaching quality. My snatch has gone up 15 kg since joining Dan's weightlifting sessions. The community here is warm, funny, and seriously motivating.
I joined after having my second child and I was completely starting from scratch. Sarah was unbelievably patient and professional. Six months in I got my first unassisted pull-up — I actually cried. The whole gym celebrated with me. That is the kind of place this is.
The programming at CFK is excellent. You can see the thought behind it — there is genuine periodisation, not just random hard workouts. Rhys clearly knows his craft. I have competed at three events this year and the base fitness I have built here has been the foundation for all of it.
I was sceptical about CrossFit — I thought it was for young, fit people who already knew what they were doing. CFK completely changed my mind. The coaches explain everything, the atmosphere is brilliant, and I have never felt like an outsider. Best thing I have done for my health in years.
