I joined TribeFIT as a complete beginner to online coaching after it was positioned to me as a more “done for you” and guaranteed system. In reality, it was not done for you at all. The information was simply handed to you with very little structure, guidance, or support, which left me feeling overwhelmed and lost.

There was a strong focus on running ads, even though I didn’t yet have a solid organic foundation or clear messaging. On top of the already high cost of the program, you’re also expected to spend additional money on ads, which was not clearly communicated upfront.

The program also states they work with you until you make your investment back, but my one on one support ended after about three months. The ending felt abrupt, with no check in, feedback, or follow up on my experience.

When I later reached out explaining that I wasn’t happy and felt I hadn’t gotten much value for the amount I paid, I was told I would need to pay more money for additional support. Given the original investment, this felt like poor customer service rather than genuine support.

Overall, this was not a good experience for me and I do not believe this program is suitable for beginners starting from zero. I would strongly recommend doing thorough research before investing.

Massive Scam – Do NOT Give Chris from TribeFit a Single Dollar

I sincerely wish I had read a review like this before I signed up. In early 2025 I paid Chris from TribeFit almost AU$9,000 over three months for what he promised would be a complete, done-for-you online fitness business that would “guarantee” sales and allow me to quit my job and support my family.
What I actually received:
• An outdated, broken system (old funnels, expired ClickFunnels shares, generic PLR content) that hasn’t been updated in years and does not work in today’s market
• Zero sales, zero leads, zero support after the money was paid
• Countless broken promises – he claimed he would handle everything, drive traffic, and make the business profitable within weeks
Once the payments were made, Chris completely disappeared. He stopped answering calls, ignored emails, and blocked me on WhatsApp when I asked for the refunds he had verbally promised if things didn’t work.
I explained to him multiple times that I have a family, a mortgage, and I was relying on this income. He couldn’t have cared less. He took the money and ran.
This is not “coaching” or “business building” – this is straight-up fraud. Chris preys on people who are desperate to change their lives, makes huge income claims with no evidence, and then ghosts them after the money is in his account.
If you’re reading this and considering TribeFit or any program run by Chris, please walk away. Save your money, save your time, and save yourself the stress and heartbreak. There are legitimate mentors out there – Chris is not one of them.
I hope this review helps even one person avoid the same nightmare. Chris, you should be ashamed of yourself for what you’re doing to good, hardworking people and their families.
One day the truth always catches up. I genuinely hope you are held accountable for the damage you’ve caused.
1/10 – the worst “business” experience of my life.

In my opinion, Tribefit is very overpriced for what they offer. They claim to provide personalized mentoring but then provide cookie cutter video courses. When you ask questions (via email or facebook) you are told to go back and watch the video lessons. Doing exactly what their lessons tell you will NOT get you the results they promise or claim. You can get most of the information they provide for free on YouTube.

A very big thank you to the team at Tribefit. i literally had no idea what to do and they helped make everything super simple and clear in a easy to follow way to get me online and start getting clients. thanks guys

For what ever reason no matter how much or how many times i tried to grow my online fitness business - i just couldnt get the result or couldnt get clear on who my market was, my niche, my offer and what to do that would actually work. not only the tools but the support and i guess help and more so gave me the confidence to push forward on things that i'd over think before. helped me get so much momentum which i just couldnt get before. thanks chris, blake and the team

My genuine experience with this program:

Back in December 2024 I was looking for coaching to get out of the desperate situation I was in with my business. After talking to a few coaches my top 2 were Tribefit & IFCA. They both sold the dream of getting new clients. But I chose Tribefit over IFCA for two main reasons. Chris nailed the sales call with my husband (also a sales person) and the price point was 4 thousand dollars less. I paid $7k

This is what happens: First you have an awesome call with Chris, he is an amazing sales person makes you feel heard and assures you that with his program you will get new clients and you will not have to spend much money to do ads..
Once you are in the program that sense of being heard is gone. You'll have to watch the videos and schedule time with your accountability coach to ask questions but you have no idea what to ask because you really don't fully understand what to do. You'll probably do some organic reach, this is how chris says you won't have to spend money to do ads because you'll get organic clients that are already in your circle and with that money from those clients you'll do ads. I got zero clients from organic. From there everything makes a little more sense because you'll have to start running ads, I spent 2k, so you'll join the live expert sessions to ask quetions about sales, ads or messages. From here you just hope all the investment you've made works. For me it did not. I made 2 sales and made back 4k of the 9k I invested.

Maybe if I would have been a better sales person or had more money to throw at ads I would have succeeded.

Pros of the program:
I learned how to set an AD campaign with Meta/facebook.

If you do sign up for this program I highly suggest you read the agreement and understand it fully.

Outstanding service & program. Chris and Blake are terrific, in a short 3 weeks have already help me gain 6 more clients and implement systems that are working. You will not go wrong joining up!!

I have been working with TribeFit and Chris Lynton for 2 months now and I would highly recommend their services. I have been able to apply their training and methodology and set up systems and processes to find and work with coaching clients from all over the world. I don't think I could have done this on my own and this has been a great experience.

Tribefit made it easy to take my personal training business online and reach more clients. It’s simple to use, and the support team genuinely cares about your success. I’m growing faster and with more confidence thanks to Tribefit!

chris and team - super helpful and know their stuff. tried getting online before but was just too hard. the team break it down and make it clear what you need to do to grow. everything you need, nothing more.

We joined TribeFit after several warm and generous sales calls where we felt really listened to. We explained our doubts and lack of experience in sales/marketing, and were assured that we were the “perfect fit” and would receive all the 1:1 mentoring we needed to overcome these challenges. This gave us the confidence to invest £4,600, even though it was a huge stretch for us.

Unfortunately, the reality was very different. Our assigned mentor was a lovely guy but had clearly received no handover about us, and it felt like our ideas were just being rubber-stamped without much personalised thought or input. The live “expert” sessions offered only a few minutes of vague advice, and although we persisted through the modules (which did have useful information for beginners like us), working hours around our existing schedule to try to grow our social media page, the recommendations simply didn’t work for us. We also spent over £500 on ads with zero real results.

Chris came across as a nice guy, but it seemed that as the program had scaled, the quality of support decreased, and we were left feeling abandoned. You could only really access his time in the once a week live sales session, and if, like us, your outreach or ads weren’t working, you didn’t have any sales to discuss.

By the end of the program, it was clear that Chris barely knew who we were, and it often felt like attention was only really given to those who were already succeeding. Yes, we were left to be included in the active group with access to the lives for more than the 90 days, but we received so little in terms of 1:1 support that it would have been really bad if we didn’t at least get that considering what we had paid.

When we finally did receive a 1:1 catch-up with our newly assigned mentor, the only offer made was to pay an additional £1,000 per month for more direct support from Chris — despite the initial guarantee that we would be guided until we doubled our investment. The last message we sent to Chris expressing our frustrations was deleted from the chat history, followed by a short, generic reply with no constructive response to the negative feedback we gave.

This experience left us financially, mentally, and emotionally drained. We did learn constructive things about ourselves in the process, but primarily we learned what we don’t want to be as a service — to just focus on selling at any cost. Sadly, it also highlighted, at least for us, how little the mentorship delivered compared to what was promised.

Note: We wanted to leave this review earlier but only recently discovered that TribeFit has a Trustpilot page. Our experience took place in early 2024, and this review reflects that timeframe.

Absolute waste of money. I paid on a Friday. Never heard from Chris for 3 weeks. Only hears from him as I rang him to ask. What the heck did I just pay for.
You get given a course to do. All about Chris and his mate blowing smoke up his ass. Then how to scam people to pay you with his sales techniques. He would literally take hour last dollar and move on happily. He also offers a guarantee. To help you until you make your invested money back. Which is a total lie. He cuts you out of access the minute your 12 weeks is up
You get 1 20 minute call with a coach per week. That's it. Plus a course. Which I struggled with. Asked for help but got no response..
I ended up getting nowhere for my 7.5k. He's just a salesman. He'll say he's created a 7 figure online fitness coaching business in the past. But he is sooo full of shit.. When asking him about that kind of workload and how does he manage it. He could give an answer. In his course. He actually talks about going into supporting plumbers. But after a month or so. He realised he knew nothing about plumbing. So his mentor suggested going into fitness.
Edit.. to tribefits reply.. I did try another online coach. Fitness profits. For 1 week. I paid them $500 dollars for a week. I got 2 zoom meetings for this. The second meeting. I got a text 10 minutes before saying I can't make the meeting. So. I wanted out. Asked for a 60% refund. Which they gave. Kevin from them said Chris was the best coach in Australia. So I went and gave tribefit a go. Propane fitness warned me. Tribefit are the worst for online coaching on the internet. I agree with them now.
Chris also said my alternate coach knew nothing about fitness. Coachingcollevtive. Contact them if you truly are looking for a wonderful online coach. Talk to Mark there.. then you will learn. Chris couldn't lie straight in bed. In his own bed or his 3rd investment property he talks about on one of his videos..
Best of luck guys. The fitness industry can be very rewarding. I started in 1999. I've gained a masters degree in fitness. Level.1 crossfit instructor and numerous group classes. But I left the industry because it became about direct debits and ripping people off. Tribefit have been the worst example of this act I've ever seen sadly..

This was easily the worst decision I’ve ever made for my business with a hefty price tag of $7200. I was extremely disappointed to learn that TribeFit offers a payment of $150 per testimonial— a fact that I learned when joining the group based on a video of Chris the owner quite literally offering that payment for reviews. Tribefit has flagged and removed this review several times now for saying as much, yet I can PROVE every single thing I’m saying here (yes, I downloaded the video and am happy to share with anyone who disputes the truth behind my review).

I hired Chris after losing literally everything I had. I was involved in an accident that paralyzed me. During my very lengthy recovery I lost my home and all my savings, and was very limited with what I could do for work. I went from having a 6 figure business to nothing at all virtually overnight.

I shared all of this with Chris on our sales call, telling him I had nothing— the $7200 investment was WAY more than I had. But I took out a loan (with a year to pay it back) so I could pay him. At no point during that sales call did he share that in order to be successful you DO either need an audience that engages or a large sum of money to pour into paid ads. You absolutely cannot be successful in this program without one of those things (he will say that isn’t true by pointing to outliers). He knew I had neither— my IG page had been deactivated during my recovery and was inactive at the time of our sales call.

During that sales call I was told that his money back guarantee had changed to “double your investment in 3 months or we’ll work with you until you do”. He made me feel so confident that he could help that I accepted despite this being a much less appealing offer.

When I got into the training I was initially a little panicked… what had I paid for?? I was to use organic lead generation (mostly through IG) to make enough money to fund my paid ads. ALL- yes, ALL- of the information is available for free online. ALL. But I thought, maybe it’s the coaching I’m paying for… wrong.

I was assigned to work with Blake, who I found to be exceptionally unhelpful. His role is to answer “general questions” which he does by a) referring you to a video you already told him you watched and was not helpful, b) belittling you for asking the question, or c) recommending you flip a coin (NOT an appropriate solution when it comes to MAJOR business decisions.

There’s an “expert” there to help you with your ads but he’s only available for 30 min sessions 2x/week and those sessions are often so busy that he can’t get to everyone, which has happened to me multiple times. This is tough when you’re trying to do things in a timely way so you can actually start making money.

I did every single thing that was required of me during my 3 month period. I began paid ads after making zero dollars with the organic strategies so I was funding them with my grocery money. Organic strategies don’t really work when you have no audience. When I made it to the end of 3 months with 0 new clients I contacted Chris.

I explained my extreme frustration with Blake and asked him to watch our recorded calls so he could see that this guy had effectively wasted 3 months of my life. He did not. He offered to work with me instead, but kept Blake involved in my business after I had explicitly said I want him nowhere near it.

During that time he ran me in circles. I worked with someone to update my script only to be advised to return to what was basically my original format. I was told I would get help with paid ads and then was referred back to organic lead generation… it became very clear that the goal was to simply tire me out until I quit the program— with a loss of my investment.

I reached month 6 with concrete evidence I had gone above and beyond everything asked of me. Chris asked for 1.5 hrs/day and I was doing 3-8+ (more on weekends). I asked for my money back and of course was denied. His contract completely screws the coach and protects himself. So he gets to keep my investment and leaves me in a much worse place than he found me. I feel compelled to share this with other coaches so you don’t waste your hard earned money or time.

By the way, this is hardly a one off, in fact there are MANY members in his group are in my exact position. How do I know? Because there are over 2 dozen of them in a group chat with me right now (all references to them shared with permission).

I have 6 months left to pay back the loan I took out for my investment and I have no idea what I’m going to do. I have tried going through mediation as my contract outlines but a single day of mediation costs more than the entire TribeFit program.

UPDATE: despite TribeFit trying relentlessly to get my review taken down it’s still up because I provided Trustpilot with extensive documentation proving every single point I’ve made. Happy to share with you too!

Real good company but I can't believe after 11 months into the program I still have not landed a single client. They have real good modules and real good live Q and A's. They are very descriptive on how to help you and give you a step by step plan.
I have worked very hard and still have not landed a client so I have to give a 4 star instead of a 5 star. I thought I was going to land a client within 3 months.
I am not sure what is missing but I feel I am missing something, being 11 months in and not landing a client yet.

Was really good. Help me get my online business and systems all set up and going and my in-person business even grew because of the better marketing and sales skills I learnt. Thanks guys

Over promised and didn’t deliver anything at all except a headache

I’ve made many investments in my biz over the years. If I had to rank my top 5 worst investments TribeFit would be all 5. I train my clients in person signed up with TribeFit to transition online and scale. As an in person trainer I didn’t rely on social media as much to grow my biz and have a small follower count. Chris told me it didn’t matter that I had no followers and sold me on the program. He said he helped lots of coaches with sub 1k followers reach huge numbers like 15-20k months. He sold me a pipe dream.

Ya maybe you can scale with no followers but it’s not common. Followers = credibility, we all know that. Been here for almost 3x my guarantee period and I all I did was blow over 3k on my paid ads and didn’t sign anyone with that method. I did sign on 3 clients using a completely different method shared with me for free by another coach.

TribeFit is a low value program. None of this info is worth anywhere near 8k which is what he charges you. Just ask ChatGPT for help, it’s free and you’ll get the same exact info… but without having to wait forever for a response. It’s very hard to get real help at TribeFit. The coach I was assigned is very lazy and takes sometimes up to a week to respond. I signed up thinking I would get a real coach but what I got is someone who doesn’t know anything about the fitness industry or sales and all he ever does is refer me back to videos. This isn’t coaching.

There’s only one guy to help with your ads and he’s only available for 30 minutes on 2 calls a week and those calls are usually busting and they don’t get to everyone. It makes getting ads going take way longer than it should because you can easily get delayed by a week if the ads call is busy and he doesn’t have time to get to you. For 8k I expect a real, qualified coach and actual help when I need it. Overall very disappointed with this program.

I feel like I got conned big time. I read all these reviews on here and he shared stories about helping coaches with low followings scale. Got in the group and saw his offer to pay for a review, and also saw there is really only 2 people posting sales consistently. I got added to a group recently with many other coaches who are active in his program and every single person in that group is having the same experience as me.

I tried submitting the info TribeFit is asking for in their comment on this review but the link expired before I had the chance and I was on a family vacation. Humorous that TribeFit is acting like my experience was novel when I would say it represents most of our experiences with this company. Evidenced by other active group members literally telling me as such.

I'm going to be as honest as I can here.

I had a lot of faith in Tribe Fit going in the program - as I was sold on a program that will with absolute confidence double my investment $7800 in 3 months.

I was very skeptical but the initial sales call was very convincing so I took a shot. My initial experience was relatively positive - I spent 3-4 hours a day implementing everything I learned in the modules. And I made 3 sales - but all to friends, and all just by telling them about my new program which I would have done with or without Tribe Fit. I wouldn't count those sales but even if we do, they totaled 5k.

I learned how to set up a calendar booking system, how to set up a stripe account, and how to set up an an ad on instagram. My niche was men in their 40s trying to transform their body and optimize longevity. I was told it was a great niche despite having some hesitation that it may be too broad. Fast forward 3-4 months, after testing 10-15 ads, attending the 30 minute live "expert" sessions each week to get revisions, advice, and support, I hadn't made a single sale, Not only that but I spent $1500 and got a total of maybe 7 leads. Booked 1 call. I kept testing and testing new ads, per their advice, but even when Tribe's experts helped me rewrite the ads, it didn't make any difference as far as getting leads. During one "live call" with the ads expert, I was told the problem was my copy (which had been applauded and approved the week before) and what i needed to do was read 10 books on ad copy. I am not shy of hard work, I read 2 of the books over the next week. And that's when I realized, I didn't hire Tribe Fit to tell me to go learn what they sold me would be taught by them.

This is when I started just testing my own strategies, changed my niche, changed my ad strategies, started speaking from an authentic voice, being true to myself, and that's when my ads started firing. Since that day I've been spending $20 a day on ads and getting 50-60 clicks and 7-10 leads per day. This made me lose trust in following their advice.

Long story short is, I feel like I spent 6 months trying to get this niche to work that was CLEARLY too broad from the beginning, and being experts, they should have pointed that out from the get-go. That's why I hired them.

Overall

Pros
1. learning how to set up ad
2. learning how to set up calendar / payment systems
3. Chris sales skills are clearly good and his advice there was helpful

Cons
1. it's not 1 on 1 coaching
2. modules are outdated - most recorded over 5-6 years ago
3. i got booted from the private FB group after 3 months without warning (they did let me back in after I said I hadn't made my money back yet)
4. you have 30 min a week to get a question answered in a live and if there are more than 2-3 people, you may not get question answered .

I would give the program a C-. I was ultimately disappointed. Not blaming anyone - I took the risk and hope others had a more positive experience.

Last thing - they pay you for positive reviews - so there's that. Trust Pilot's rules and guide lines state "don't write incentivized reviews"

enjoyed it. I learned loads. You’ve gotta put in the work but if you want the steps and help to do it and ready to take action its great.

I enrolled in TribeFit’s coaching program under a written performance guarantee: either make back 2x my investment in 90 days, or continue receiving support until I did. I paid $7,200 and stayed engaged — completing modules and following the steps provided.

About a month in, my assigned coach stopped responding — for over 6 weeks. No 1-on-1 coaching, no new plans, and no follow-up. The company later admitted this lapse was due to an internal KPI system failure. Despite acknowledging the error, they still refused to honor the full guarantee.

They offered a partial $1,000 refund as a resolution. I declined — but they issued it anyway against my wishes, stating (quote): “It will make me [TribeFit Representative] feel better.”

This was not a coaching experience that upheld its promises. I can’t recommend a program that doesn’t stand behind its own contract — no matter how strong the marketing or testimonials may seem.

What was most disappointing is that the company didn’t see any issue with delivering only part of what was promised — and still expected to keep the full payment.

To me, that doesn’t treat people’s investment with dignity or respect. Especially when someone takes the program seriously, follows the process, and then gets left without support.

Always read the fine print — and hold programs accountable for what they guarantee in writing.

The team at Tribefit have been amazing. When I first joined, I had no idea how to run ads or how to use them to actually bring in online clients but I’ve learnt so much throughout my time in the program.

The support was always there when I needed it, and the whole team is super down-to-earth, genuine, and easy to work with. They really care about helping coaches succeed.

I’d definitely recommend Tribefit to any online coach who’s feeling a bit stuck or needs more direction with their marketing and business growth. I’m really grateful for everything I took away from the experience.
