"I joined CrossFit Martell after a long break from training. After dealing with a shoulder injury, I had a lot of doubts and fear about starting again. After my first class, all the fear disappeared. I immediately felt like this was the place where I wanted to grow, improve, and become stronger again."

Hit the Trial Week button at the top of the page, fill in a few details, and book your first class. Seriously — that's the hardest part. Everything after that, we handle. The Trial Week is three real classes, real coaching, and zero pressure. Designed for people in Malta who haven't tried CrossFit before. Still reading? That's your sign. Book your Trial Week →
Nothing you can't handle — we promise. Every class has a strength section and a workout of the day. Movements are always taught before you do them, there's always the right version of it for you — not the easiest, but the right one — and your coach is with you the whole time. You won't be thrown in the deep end. Ever.
Yes — especially here. Probably the safest place in Malta to start CrossFit as a beginner. We've coached people with bad knees, dodgy backs, old shoulder injuries, and years of doing nothing at all. Every movement is taught properly before you do it. We never push anyone past what their body is ready for. The person next to you might be lifting more — that's fine, they're on their own journey. You're on yours.
If you are a beginner, we recommend starting with 2 to 4 classes a week, with the goal of working up to 5 a week after your first few months. It may take a while for your body to get used to training at that intensity, so listen to your body and always discuss with us if you're unsure - we're here to take care of you.
No! A healthy lifestyle has to be manageable and realistic for the long term. Do enjoy special indulgences and meals! The healthier you are, the healthier you tend to want to eat. You get hooked on feeling good, and junk food just isn’t worth it. By avoiding excessive amounts of refined carbohydrates and measuring your intake of protein, carbohydrates, and fat, you will see dramatic, measurable increases in health.
No. And we mean that. We've had people walk through our door who hadn't exercised in years. People who were out of breath climbing stairs. People who genuinely believed they were "too far gone" to start. They're some of our best members now. You don't need to be fit to start here — that's literally what we're here for.
Every class is fully coached from start to finish by CrossFit Level 2 coaches. You won't be handed a workout and left to figure it out alone — we know how that goes. We're with you every rep, making sure you always know what you're doing, why you're doing it, and that you're doing it safely. You will never feel lost here.
Faster than you think — especially if you're starting from zero. Most people notice something in the first two to three weeks. More energy. Less stiffness getting out of bed. Clothes fitting differently. The visible stuff follows. But here's what nobody tells you — you'll feel better long before you look different. And that feeling is what keeps people coming back.
We’re serious about quality, results, and being honest with you, but we make sure you have a blast while working out. It’s all about getting better together, without sacrificing the fun! Plus, we’re an international community—probably the most diverse gym in Malta—speaking languages like English, Russian, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, Greek, and more!
We hear this one a lot — usually from people sitting on the sofa convincing themselves it's not for them. Here's the truth: intensity is the last thing we talk about at Martell. We coach. Every movement is taught properly, every workout is scaled to where you are right now — not where someone else is, not where you were ten years ago. Right now. You will be challenged. You will also finish. And you'll probably surprise yourself.
