“Joshua! What a fabulous human and coach. I was very hesitant to seek out a personal trainer & my only regret is I wish I had asked for Joshua’s help sooner.My favorite things about working w Joshua… 1) he holds you accountable!! But not in a scary way… he humbly seeks to understand. He asks probing questions that dig into motivation that begin to scratch the surface for WHY behind your goals so that he can help you build a plan to achieve 2) he leads by example. NEVER has Joshua asked me to restrict. He helps you build a sustainable plan that enables you to live life tastefully AND on track to meet your ideal self. He doesn’t miss out on ice cream, so why should I?? 3) he is so knowledgeable. From the first conversation I had w Joshua I knew I was going to learn so much working w him…however, not only have I learned so much, but his energy to learn more is contagious and I’m inspired to keep learning. Joshua provides you w what feels like endless amounts of coaching in topics like: habit formation, nutrition (I was definitely not getting enough protein before working w Joshua!), strength training, goal setting & achieving, productivity etc. 4) Joshua builds a personal plan that fits YOU. I was working remote for a month and was really worried about the progress we’d made (strength building, clean eating etc.) because w/out a routine & traveling I thought I would regress to old habits… Joshua detailed a guide for me that included local gyms he tracked down in PORTUGAL as well as hikes/activities and grocery stores nearby w healthy choices for vegetarians… I mean wow. He made it so easy for me to put fitness first. Joshua 5) he’s in your corner! This is one of my favorite aspects of working w Joshua; he’s the best cheerleader. He taught me to celebrate the small wins and when doubt reared it’s ugly head… he was first to reassure me.I signed up for 3 months w Joshua and I’m so excited to continue this journey… I wouldn’t pick anyone else to be in my corner. Thank you Joshua!!!”

“I was incredibly nervous to join a new gym where I knew very few people and involved workouts I was not comfortable with. Especially after years of not making myself and my health a priority. Shortly after joining The Tracks Fitness Lab, I felt extremely comfortable. I formed relationships with coaches and other members alike. After reaching that comfort level, I joined The Tracks 12 week challenge in the spring of 2023 and when I started I gave myself very modest goals. Those goals were achieved much easier than I expected and I had to reevaluate halfway through. I was not in great shape and did not have a healthy mindset on diet or myself. what I learned was not replaceable. Not only did I learn a tremendous amount about nutrition and diet, but I learned new ways to view myself and healthy ways to make progress regardless of how small. The results were great. I got in much better shape, pushed myself harder than I had in over 15 years, and became a part of a supportive group that wanted me to succeed as much, if not more than I wanted to succeed. I learned lessons that I will keep with me throughout my fitness journey and for the rest of my life. I would highly recommend The Tracks Fitness Lab for someone who wants to make a lifestyle change!”

“I have really enjoyed my time at body alive ! I’ve been to plenty of yoga places and get really intimidated by the extremely small classes and instructors critiquing my every move. That’s not Body Alive. There is more community, less criticism, more inclusion and letting you just find your practice that day - no pushing for perfection or demanding my body do something it cannot. I appreciate the sweet instructors (they are soooo young and kind!). They make you feel welcome and are great at reminding you to take it at your own pace, listening to your body.I wish they offered more yoga classes and a few other offerings than Pilates but I’ve found classes most of the days I want them.”

“The best all around facility for all your strength and conditioning needs. Come for the best equipment collection you’ll find in cincy, stay for Kevin, the best gym owner you’ll ever come across! He really cares about all of the members!”

“Mark and Hero Gym are as good as it gets. I don't have much experience in gyms (despite my amazing physical prowess) and Mark made me feel right at ease, giving strong support but also pushing me to go as hard as possible. I saw immediate gains from my time in the gym and look forward to being part of the Hero Gym family or a long time to come.”

“Best gym in the Cincinnati/Northern KY area, hands down not even close. The owners are welcoming and have created the best environment for anyone. If you are looking to compete or just have fun and get your fitness on, this is the place for you.”

“My wife and I have been working out with Drew twice a week for the last 6 months and love it. Cincy 360 was recommended by a friend after I started having some back issues that were severely limiting all of my fitness activities. I was back to almost all of my activities within the first month or so!Drew has kept the workouts interesting and challenging, always building on what we did the week before. The weight or reps continue to build, but not at the expense of form.We’re very happy with Cincy 360 and can’t wait to see what Drew has in store for us next year!”

“Super friendly/helpful staff and enjoyed Tara’s class very much!I have a Shred Fam in Louisville where I live but will be back to this location when visiting Cincy.”

“$15 for a day pass. Jeff the owner was super nice on the phone. Paid for 4 days via Venmo. Sent me a liability waiver and let me in remotely when I arrived. Instructed to pick up a bar code card to get back in. Excellent gym for heavy lifting. Free weights, machines, squat rack etc. clean rest rooms with a shower. I'll be back when in town.”

“I’ve been coming here for 3 years now, but sadly have to go off to college now. The amazing group of personal trainers here are exceptionally skilled and kind. I will miss them dearly and plan to come back at some point!”

“Needed to change it up from the workout that I was doing for 5 consistent years and so happy I did! I love that there are so many class times to choose from and the variety of classes. The coaches and very nice and knowledgeable.”

“5-stars for QCCF for sure, a gold standard for Crossfit gyms. I had been out of regular gym attendance for a couple years due to moves and some injuries, and Dan and the team were welcoming, encouraging, and willing to help wherever I needed it. The coaches are knowledgeable and helpful. The workouts are always unique and the gym members run the gamut of talents and abilities, providing a good setup for anyone looking to grow themselves. Highly recommended.”

“KID'S CLUB STAFF SHOUTOUT. I'm a SilverLake member but I come to BB once a week for basketball. I bring my energetic 2, almost 3, year old son, Nico, every Wednesday around 5:30PM for the past month. They greet him, make him feel welcome, and that's all I expect. But they go way above and beyond. Sometimes I've come down an hour later and they're still engaging with him! He prefers solo play unless it's another toddler he knows so I'm shocked he's playing with them. And I can tell he's getting attention because he doesn't want to leave most of the time. This is never the case at Silverlake, he's always sprinting to the door upset and desperately trying to get out and I only leave him at that Kids Club for only 30 minutes. He was being clingy last week at BB and didn't want to go in (had nothing to do with them, he's just a daddy's boy sometimes), and the employee working the desk was a good sport, reached out her arms, talked him through it, and put up with his whines for who knows how long. I bounced because I knew he was going to cry no matter what we did. I expected them to either reluctantly take him or ask to wait until he's ready, but she was all over it and ready to handle his whiny butt. They're so awesome! It's not that I don't appreciate Silverlake staff at Kids Club because it's an insanely hard job, but the BB staff are just the best. If I had any doubts on keeping my Silverlake membership, BB Kid's Club staff have killed them.”

“The gym is clean, full of nice people including the owner. It has everything that you need, and nothing that you don't. I like it and have recommended it to others.”

“By far my favorite studio in the tristate area. My home away from home. Not only do they have amazing classes but an outstanding teacher trainor program as well (200 and 300 hour) Jeff Emerson certainly has help create a one of a kind community here.”

“This is a great place to go for any home gym or exercise equipment. The store is well stocked and they encourage you to show up ready to try the machines.The people are all knowledgeable and are intimately involved in making certain the product is right for the person. There is no pressure to buy a specific brand or model.They service what they sell. Since home equipment can run in the multiple thousands of dollars, having service option is a must. I have heard and read horror stories of people buying equipment from online retailers who won't back up a warranty when something goes bad.I purchased one piece of equipment that had an issue with an arm attachment. After performing a service call and determining one of the set screws had been stripped, they replaced the entire machine.Nice people, owner operated, good prices, great service.”

“I have been a part of this gym for over a year now and have to say how amazing it is! The staff, coaches, programming, community, facility are top notch and highly recommend anyone to check it out!”

“Burn Boot Camp is a great gym that is so supportive. I've been at burn almost 2 years and have worked out through a pregnancy. I'm so thankful for the trainers at burn for being so knowledgeable and supportive. I've felt safe throughout my pregnancy and working out. In addition to the knowledgeable staff the atmosphere is second to none. It's addicting and keeps you coming back each day. The childcare allows parents to workout while allowing their children to be in a safe environment. My kids love the childcare and ask to go to the gym with mom. I can't say enough good things about burn!”

“I've been meaning to write this review and just haven't gotten around to it. My experience was July 2023. I took the Orange 45 Min 3G class with Hailey [instructor]. The level of professionalism and hospitality I received is what caused me to leave this review. From my first phone call explaining that I was in from out of town and had never done Orange Theory - I was treated like a celeb. They knew I was a visitor and that I would not turn into a long-term customer but they treated me like the most important customer. The phone call was informative and the follow up prompt - which resulted in reserving the 8:30am class. When I arrived the next day I was greeted with a big smile and given a very informative and detailed tour. Then I was introduced to the instructor who told me she had placed me in a specific spot so that she can watch/help me and because she placed another instructor who happened to be taking the class next to me for additional support. The class was full and there were people of all shapes, sizes, and ages. She did a great job instructing each person and creating a very communal atmosphere despite it ultimately being an individual workout in a group setting. I enjoyed the workout, attention to detail, cleanliness, and customer service! I will be back when in town!”

“If you're reading this because you're skeptical of the ratings, let me assure you, this is a 5-star facility. I've been working out for years but had to alter my routine due to an injury last summer. This was my first experience with class workouts, and they are killer. Every session leaves me drenched in sweat and sore in the best way, targeting muscles I'd typically overlook. The staff is supportive and the atmosphere is energizing. I'm halfway through the 7-class trial and will definitely be signing up for a regular membership.”

“Looking for an Outstanding place - I found it- this place has Everything and the people are so special and wonderful. Thank you Lords Gym for brightening my life and soul.”

“There are not enough words to describe how I feel about this place. I have been a member for over 3 years and every year somehow gets better. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome and make it feel like a community. The group classes feel like 1:1 personal training and they offer free 1:1 coaching to focus on what YOU want to work on, not to mention the childcare which is a huge plus. I absolutely love it here, come join us!”

“About 1.5 yrs ago, I started my personal training journey with Prevail. I hadn’t really stepped foot in a gym prior—simply was looking for a place close to home. I never imagined this experience would make such a positive difference in my life.I’ve become close friends with my trainer/mentor— who is super knowledgeable and even pursues continued education. I’m happy with my body recomposition results, and believe that money spent on your health is money well-spent!About the gym:It’s a smaller gym focused on weight-lifting, and they’ve made good use of the space so it rarely feels crowded. If you’re looking for treadmills/ellipticals/tvs and amenities like that of a big-box gym, then this may not be for you.They’ve cultivated and nurtured a welcoming, non-superficial environment which I appreciate. Plus, the free walking group is a casual setting for you to meet everyone and get any of your questions answered!”

“The entire staff was friendly and PATIENT with me. I am a true beginner and they didn’t hesitate to meet me where I am beginning. Instructors are fun and encouraging.”

“I used to attend the water resistance rowing classes at It's Working Out and I loved the variety in exercises and in music of the trainers. While rowing is not currently available, I'm now attending private personal training sessions. I asked for balanced results and have definitely noticed increased strength and endurance after nearly a year later. It's nice to have someone track my progress, provide feedback, challenge me, and even introduce new material into my workouts. All the trainers have been great.”

“It came today, can't believe what a wonderful product you guys built. It's literally insane and nothing like it on the planet!In commercial gym they had racks with metal no protective plastic so bar easily was adjusted but also all bars lost their knurling. Home gyms all have protection of expensive barbells but you can't slide the bar a mm and constantly have to lift with bar off center. It's annoyed the hell out of me every single time.You solved this problem, looks like ART, performs like a one of a kind $20 million Ferarri and will make lifting a joy and came same week. Insane customer support as well.”

“Two years ago today, in this picture I had been on crutches for six months and was on my second major surgery of the year. This one was to fix what was to be two sets of broken bones in my pelvis from the first surgery that went array, and turned out to be three. I had two plates and 8 screws in my hip and pelvis. When I met DJ, I'd been on crutches 11 months and still in so much pain I couldn't sleep at night. I was staring down a third surgery to take out the metal in my body to see if it would help. Going from being an "athlete" in terms of work out standards of to immobile messed me up. DJ, swindled me into thinking he could fix me and avoid the third surgery at QCKB. I wasn't getting sleep and was in constant pain. I started in November, 2021 at Queen City Kettlebell. He worked with me closely... but I had to do the work. He encouraged me to push through. I cried for at least the first month in the gym. So much so that I was going to make a t shirt that said "DJ didn't make me cry, I'm just a whiney b.". I kept coming back. Kept pushing myself and letting DJ push me. The people who work out there are so welcoming and very supportive, which makes the environment somewhere you don't mind crying if it comes up out. Five months later, I went to San Diego on a work trip. I was able to walk and hike over 15,000 steps a day after working out and had zero pain. Eight months later, I rode 22 miles on my road bike after walking 5 miles early that morning. I'm not back to where I was YET, but I'm MILES from where I was after months of unsuccessful physical therapy before meeting DJ and starting at Queen City Kettlebell. Also, Emma is fantastic and very kind and knowledgeable. Thank you so much to the team there. I can't speak the words that can truly convey how it feels to start getting my body back.”

“Thank you Calibrated for having a staff of excellent coaches! I think I’ve done just about every class time given my chaotic work schedule & all of them are so welcoming & helpful!I pulled my back golfing before my workout last night and was fully expecting to only stretch and skip out early. I told David about my injury and was surprised I was able to complete the full workout pain free by going a tad lighter/scaling and swapping out the kettlebell swings for hip thrusts. He also recommended some other stretches that made a huge difference. My back felt so much better after that workout and I’m glad I didn’t skip out. I’ve tried many gyms throughout the years and Calibrated is one where I know I can come in and get a great workout regardless of my skills, injuries I might be facing etc. so I have sooooooo much appreciation for Calibrated & all of the coaches there. THANK YOU SO MUCH!”

“Thank God there is a safe place for my daughter to go after school until I get off work! And grateful they offer a schools day out program for her to go to and I don’t ever have to worry about finding a sitter or somewhere for her to go when school is out! Especially during long breaks like Christmas”
