SINCE 2009, THE FOUNDATION (FORMERLY QCCROSSFIT) HAS BEEN THE LEAD GYM IN THE QUAD CITIES FOR HEALTH AND FITNESS.
What started out as a passion for CrossFit quickly turned into a passion for smarter training that supports every athlete in their journey to optimal health. We’ve worked hard to create an environment in our Quad City Gyms in which every individual feels welcomed & supported. Our coaches and member base create a community of people that is second to none. We offer a number of different group classes and personal training sessions specifically tailored to help you meet your goals. From weight-lifting to cardio, plyometrics to gymnastics, or boxing to endurance training, we’re sure we have something for every body.

Frequently Asked Questions
DO I NEED EXPERIENCE OR SOME MINIMUM LEVEL OF FITNESS?
No! Just contact us to get started for free. Our workouts and exercises scale to any level – from broomsticks to barbells, we’ll tailor the workout to your ability!
DO I NEED TO BE IN SHAPE BEFORE I SHOW UP?
Absolutely not! We have students who are in the 99th percentile of fitness and those in the 5th percentile of fitness. You are pushed and encouraged based on your current level of fitness. All we want is for you to give your best effort during each workout.
WHAT TYPE OF EXERCISES DO YOU DO?
The clean and jerk, snatch, squat, deadlift, push-press, bench-press, as well as bodyweight movements such as push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and pull-ups. We also have our very own Woodway Treadmills, State of the Art Rowing machines, and Ski Ergs to keep the workouts scalable, challenging, and varied.
WHO ARE THE CLASS INSTRUCTORS?
The Foundation class instructors are highly experienced coaches and personal trainers who are passionate about health and people. They are here to help you on your journey to greater health and fitness.
DO YOU HAVE CHILDCARE AVAILABLE?
Yes. We have childcare available for a select number of our group classes throughout the week at both of our locations.
ARE THERE SHOWERS AVAILABLE?
Yes, we do have multiple showers available for client use at both our Davenport/ Bettendorf IA location & our Moline/ Rock Island IL location.
CAN I COME IN AND WORKOUT ON MY OWN?
No. All of our programs require a coach whether it be for a group class or a personal training session.
I’M FROM OUT OF TOWN, CAN I DROP IN?
Absolutely. We require that you have been Crossfitting for at least 3 months before attending our classes. Our drop-in fee is $25 for day 1 and $5 for every additional day after that. Please email us at admin@thefoundation.fit prior to coming in.
IS IT WORTH IT?
We definitely would say it is worth it, but we are a little biased. The only person who can truly tell you if it is worth it is you. The only way you can objectively know is to show up and participate in a workout.
WHAT TYPE OF RESULTS CAN I EXPECT?
Although you will probably start feeling better and stronger immediately, new students can expect about a 15-20% improvement in strength and endurance following the first fifteen sessions. In addition, our findings show that flexibility, agility and body composition are improved. Subjective things like increased mental toughness, energy levels, improved sleep and reduced joint stiffness are also reported. Most of our students are shocked at their improvements even though they would consider themselves exercisers before getting started at The Foundation.
WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS?
It is a common sentiment to feel that, due to the obligations of career and family, you don’t have the time to become as fit as you might like. Here’s the good news: world class, age-group appropriate strength and conditioning are obtainable in just an hour a day six days per week of training. It turns out that the intensity of training that optimizes physical conditioning is not sustainable past forty-five minutes to an hour. Athletes that train for hours a day are developing skill or training for sports that include adaptations inconsistent with elite strength and conditioning. Past one hour, more is not better!
We have 2 gyms in the Quad Cities with one gym in Davenport IA off 53rd near Bettendorf, IA and another gym in Moline IL with a spectacular view of the river.

LOOK BETTER
Nearly every client we see in one of our Quad Cities gyms comes in with goals of looking better, and if they didn’t they are probably lying ;). That being said, we know what it takes to get there. It’s a combination of smart training and smart eating. We promote and teach both religiously at The Foundation.
FEEL BETTER
Lacking energy and dealing with sedentary lifestyle symptoms does not have to be your normal. We frequently see clients gain energy, improve their digestion issues, depression and more. Movement and nutrition are powerful therapies that all people see benefits from at our Quad Cities fitness facilities.
BE STRONGER
Strength is incredibly important to us at The Foundation (your first clue being our Strength Lab!). Strength training plays a crucial role in every aspect of fitness, so we put an important emphasis on it. It’s what keeps us healthy, stable, and able to perform any sport or activity in life safely and efficiently.
DO MORE
Our prescription for health and wellness goes outside the walls of our Quad Cities gyms. We are strong advocates of people using their fitness outside in their everyday lives, and their involvement in any active thing where they have the ability to use the fitness they have worked so hard to achieve.
