I have been attending classes here for a few weeks now and I really like it. The classes are very challenging, and the trainers are awesome. I needed a new gym since my previous gym was forced to close and based on the reviews and class descriptions, I chose to join this gym. The class sizes are perfect: not too big or too small. The trainers always work with me to provide alternatives for exercises that I need to avoid due to knee issues. While I have come up with substitutions on my own, the trainers will provide me with other alternatives that work the muscles in the same fashion as the exercise I need to avoid. I really appreciate that attention to detail. Additionally, the trainers will watch my form and provide suggestions to help me improve. It's refreshing to know that they care about my form to help avoid injury and to enable me to be more successful in my fitness journey. Keep up the great work!

If you are looking for a gym in the Columbus area where you can fit in and reach your fitness goals, 614 is where you want to be. Jim and his staff are very professional and have helped guide me every step of the way in my fitness journey. They instruct you how to perform the exercises the correct way using the right mix of weight training and cardio and also stress the importance a proper diet. My family and friends have definitely noticed the results. I’m super proud to be part of a gym which has helped me realize fitness is a lifestyle!

I've been a member of this studio for several years and have not had any bad experiences. It hurts my heart that someone has had a negative experience. However, I do not feels it's right to condemn the entire studio. All the years I've been a member I have never been bribed to do anything, not even an extra burpee. If you have a bad experience with one trainer and you've voiced your displeasure with management and nothing changed, let your review reflect that particular situation. I hope you find a gym that is right for you

I’ve been going to 614 for over a year now and it was the best decision ever for a fitness program. It’s family friendly in small group sessions where people get to know you by name and not just a face among a hundred strangers. The instructors provide personal and expert guidance through all kinds of sessions. I’m found of HIIT myself, lots of variety. The owner/instructor is hands on, teaching classes himself. All ages and body types are welcome here and I love that this gym is the dream gym for fitness, regardless of who you are. Communication flows because the owner sends personalized emails to members chocked full of fitness points on stress, stretching, mobility, weight, muscle fitness, mediation, social support and more. This past year they developed all classes via online with Zoom, a lifesaver, and the gym continues ALL those Zoom sessions. 614 Fitness is worth its weight in gold many times over for the monthly fee. I love the personal touch and small classes. I’ve been a member of many gyms, even McConnell Heart Health Center, which I also loved, but it’s a big place there and you are basically on your own. I don’t want to be a gym rat, just going through the motions. I need a focused, personalized, and family oriented small group with knowledgeable, fun, and caring instructors— and that’s the treasure box here at 614 Fitness, ?

I have been a member since May 2021 and couldn’t recommend 614Fitness enough. Whether you are on your first burpee, or completing a series of them for a challenge, you will have a group of people cheering you on for your victory. After SEVERAL gym trials elsewhere this place really checked all the boxes I needed. Challenging workouts. Super positive environment. Amazing safety measures. And personalized fitness goals no matter where you are. It truly is an amazing and encouraging fitness family/ community.The trainers are all attentive and provide great attention and support for any questions or modification needs. Jim, the owner, is so present, involved, and (even with a recent shoulder surgery) is there to encourage and embody the personal touch and connection he prides his gym on. With an owner like that the gym itself continues in that mode and really become a fitness family full of support and joy for your fitness journey and goal.I can’t recommend this place enough.

I can't say enough good things about this gym. From the trainers to the members, the entire community is so friendly, welcoming & encouraging. Even the owner, Jim, not only knows everyone's name, but knows their profession & really cares to get to know you! How cool is that?I joined with the unlimited membership in Dec 2020, and knew it was love at first sight after my first class with Elicia. My fitness goals are to get faster & stronger, and 614 Fitness is the PERFECT place to achieve those goals and so so much more.I can already tell a difference in my strength & endurance! I can't wait to see where my fitness level will be a year from now.Where to start? I HIGHLY recommend taking Elicia & Jill's classes :) You won't regret it!

I joined this wonderful gym in June 2020 in the midst of the pandemic. I've always felt safe here and trust the steps they have taken to keep everyone safe. I love the group classes, and how they change every week. It keeps the workouts fresh and exciting. I highly recommend 614 fitness!

I have been a member of 614 Fitness for about 2 years now. I appreciate the nurturing, supportive and inclusive environment. There are folks here from a variety of backgrounds, different age groups, and with a wide range of fitness goals. All are welcome. During the pandemic, Jim and the trainer team reached out to members to check on them individually and worked tirelessly to provide safe ways for us to stay active. Folks at 614 Fitness care!

I joined this gym roughly 6 months ago. In the beginning everything went great. But over the past couple months, things have turned. Some of the training staff is amazing, yet others have shown a sense of “not caring” or that they have some place else they would rather be or that they spent all of 2 minutes coming up with a group exercise.On more than one occasion, group exercise class was essentially “do sit-ups for 45 min non-stop, while I sit up here and play on my phone”. The personalized service they pride themselves on really comes up short when trainers are not even paying attention to their clients while they are doing their exercises.Additionally, be cautious of the positive reviews. They try and bribe their members with gift cards and skipping certain exercises by leaving reviews. This is ethically questionable at best.Bottom line I would not recommend this gym. There are too many other options available that are sure to provide a higher level of service and trainers who put your fitness first.

Update July 2021: @lukeweber, it dismays me that you slam 614 Fitness. I have been a member there since it started. I have never been paid or bribed to review the studio either. The community that works out there is like a family with people at all different fitness levels. The trainers are dedicated (and very attentive) in helping members reach their fitness and weight goals. Jim, the owner, is outstanding and caring in every way. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I believe yours is a minority of one.2 years ago: 614 Fitness rocks! It is the workout AND the people who go there that make it special. It is very telling when I have been going there for 5 years and many of the same people are still there. The trainers are knowledgeable, fun and will also modify a workout for anyone needing it. The whole package makes for a very positive experience.

I'm so impressed with 614fitness. I have a rare disease that left me with some unique challenges to overcome. I called first pretty sure I'd get the run around. I talked to Jim, the owner, and now my trainer. I told him about my neurological disease. We decided it would be best if we met in person so he could see where my fitness needs were. By the time we had that first meeting Jim had taken the time to learn about my disease and learn about the challenges I could face working out. When we met he asked if he could talk to my doctor to make sure we were all on the same page. This put my worries at ease. I've been going 2x a week for almost 2 months now. Jim met me at my level and has slowly increased the intensity of the exercises to match my needs/goals. I feel great! I will recommend this gym to anyone I talk to about it. Each time I go we work different muscle groups. The gym is always clean. The people are nice. They offer classes, personal training and open gym time.

A great community to work out with! I started going to 614fitness in January but things have since changed. During COVID 614fitness helped me reach goals during such a challenging time with online classes and check ins. At the gym it is very welcoming and clean! The trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I would recommend to anyone!

I recently switched to 614 Fitness from a larger gym. I have really enjoyed the supportive and encouraging atmosphere from both the trainers and the members. The workouts have challenged me to get into better physical condition while being fun at the same time.

This gym is is more than a place to work out; it is a community- and a very supportive one! Jim, the owner, as well as the other fabulous instructors know each member, greet each of us by name, and set appropriate challenges for each individual to reach the next level. This is my sixth week as a member, and I absolutely love it!
