OUR STORY

who is x4 For?

Created for any athlete, at any fitness level

X⁴ started in Homewood, AL as a HIIT class that was offered at a gym called Nexus Fitness when owner Chris Wade realized there was no comprehensive fitness option for all fitness levels. After 3 years of continued growth at Nexus, X4 became its own brand and launched its first independent studio in Mountain Brook, AL.

Sharing the perfect fitness formula with the world

The X⁴ Mountain Brook location was soon sold to the head coach, which ultimately became the first franchise of X⁴ Fitness. About 1 year later, the 2nd franchise was launched downtown Birmingham. X⁴ Fitness is growing at a rapid pace and will be coming soon to a city near you.
