The problem is that other than having a personal trainer I don't see anything better than CrossFit gyms. The 'normal' gyms are usually a lot worse than CF ones, at least around here (I am living in Amsterdam). Would love to hear other experiences though.
I don't know what you mean. Cross fit undoubtedly has pretty good equipment compared to a globo-gym, but globo-gyms will have everything you need 99% of the time. A squat rack, a bench, and some barbells...Places to do pull-ups, dips, a huge array of dumbbells....
It also isn't hard to find gyms with bumper plates that are powerlifting/oly friendly, or specialized gyms that have whatever your in to (rock climbinb gyms exist, etc)... You just have to do your research
I'm in Amsterdam and I train outside with The Bootcamp Club (https://thebootcampclub.nl/nl/), have you tried that? Almost all the trainings are outside, and mostly focus on endurance and bodyweight exercises.
