I have been very satisfied working out at FE. I’ve dabbled in workouts in the past and have been on a health journey for the past few years. Strength training has felt overwhelming and like something that would be really boring, hard, and I wouldn’t be good at. FE meets you right where you are, supports your physical needs and pushes you until you find yourself actually craving strength training. At first, I was sure I could crack the code on what I needed to do within a couple of months and then do it myself. Now I realize the complexity of the exercises that seem very simple, the benefits of working on with a small group and with the same trainers. Thanks for getting me to this point!

Definitely the best gym experience I’ve had in Columbus. The trainers are thoughtful and skilled professionals that genuinely want to see you excel. The community is welcoming and supportive. My only complaint is that they occasionally have raffles and I have yet to win :).

So glad I found Fitness Evolution! I was in physical therapy for hip and leg issues and it was ending. I knew if I didn't continue physical activity, I'd be back where I started. That's when I found FE. It's been a year and I'm stronger than I've ever been. The personal attention is unlike anywhere else.

Weight lifting was something I knew I needed to do but never could do it regularly on my own. I love the accountability, support, and super strong body I have gotten while being a member at FE. My balance and over all health is so much better as I am aging.

Bottom line - a great organization that helps people set and reach their goals.I turn 70 next year, and except for a few lapses, physical fitness has been part of my life since the 1960s. I mention that because I don't attend small class training because I HAVE to, I do it because I WANT to.The staff are all gentle & super motivating, the physical environment is new & clean, there is a sense of community not found at your large franchise gyms and they work to keep that community feel. The instructors know everyone by name and their physical strengths/weaknesses, and use that knowledge to guide us during each session.Come visit the owner, Melanie, and see what you've been missing.

I couldn't recommend the small group training here enough! For me the greatest thing is the knowledge of the trainers and their ability to quickly and easily change exercises to help with overcoming former injuries and to avoid re-triggering them as I build up strength. I have been in PT before, and I can tell that Melanie really knows the body and training! The small groups are a great size and workouts are tailored to you individually while being with the group doing similar work, so there's motivation when you see others working hard too. All of the trainers have been great to work with.

Perfect combination of personal and small group train! Always excited to get to class (where my old workouts were always a dread) The staff is nice and knowledgeable and help you work through your individual needs without hurting yourself! You just get to go in, work out, leave--all the hard planning is done for you! I can already tell I'm stronger after 5 weeks! Great variety of clients, and a fun, atmosphere where people care about YOU! Give them a try, you've got nothing to lose!

This is the most fun I've ever had working out! I love the small group training format, which provides the camaraderie, encouragement, and inspiration you get from working out with others, while still allowing for personal attention from a trainer.I love strength training, but I've neglected it for a long time, mostly because I don't care for large gyms, and I'm never sure what to do on my own to build strength without risk of injury. Working out at FE gives me the confidence to challenge myself in a safe, controlled environment, knowing the trainers are selecting exercises, modifications, and weight based on where I am on my own individual fitness journey. A healthy dose of accountability from the amazing staff is also welcome!I already feel stronger in my day-to-day activities and have far fewer aches and pains. It's been great to get back into a regular strength training routine, and this was the best way for me to it. Would highly recommend!

Six months in and I could talk for hours about the ways my life has been changed thanks to FE.The biggest change though, has got to be my joint strength and mobility. For my entire life I’ve had knee pain due to an old injury from childhood.I’ve certainly worked around it, learned to live with it, and had to change my life in ways I never wanted because of it.I’ve tried other programs, gym memberships, personal trainers, but everything always felt like a “one size fits all” method, and that did not work for my needs.Finding FE was a breath of fresh air. Not only were they thorough in my entry evaluation, asking about any hindrances I might have, or past injuries, but extremely transparent about their whole process and goals as an establishment.They really care about giving you long lasting strength and healing in the right way for YOUR body. Everything is catered to your needs. Just this week, I was still able to do a modified workout with an injury. They took great care to make sure I was able and comfortable the whole time.To say I’m grateful for what they’ve done for me is the understatement of the year. Not only do I live without pain, but I trust my body again, and for that kind of result I don’t think I could ever thank them enough.Thank you FE!!

I really love how inclusive FE is- they welcome people of all ages and fitness levels- and the trainers work with you at your starting point to help you reach your goals. I love my time spent at Fitness Evolution!

I had been wanting to add strength training to my life for years but didn’t know where to start, so I never did. A friend told me about small group personal training at Fitness Evolution and it has been exactly what I wanted. I love showing up and having the trainer tell me exactly what to do so I don’t have to figure out what weights or what exercises equal a full body workout. I feel motivated when I increase my weights and am inspired when I see other people using heavier weights than me.

My dietician recommended Fitness Evolution specifically because of their unique approach to “working out”. I was interested in a personal trainer at first but This is beyond better. I have several trainers in small groups and I feel very comfortable asking them questions and they always help with form which is something i can’t tell very well on my own. They not only help me when I’m there but they’re always supporting me online too. When i try and push myself to do a 3rd strength day at home i have an entire library of trainers on demand/video that I can do from home. They are all very personal and its like having my own team of support in making strength training apart of my lifestyle. If you’re looking for actual help and support to add strength and movement to your life, I would 100% recommend coming here.

I'm not a "gym person" and I've always struggled with consistency in my fitness. Fitness Evolution has really changed all of that for me. I now love going to the studio regularly, and I have accountability from trainers and other clients to help keep me on track.Fitness Evolution emphasizes establishing a positive mental attitude as a stepping stone on the track towards achieving fitness goals. This is key for me as I struggle with mental health issues and need a positive and caring environment to feel safe.I love that the classes are small, and that I am guaranteed individual attention when I need it. I can go at my own pace, and I feel more confident using equipment the correct way (without putting myself at risk of injury). Melanie and all of the trainers go above and beyond to ensure that every single client's personal training is specific to their needs and lifestyle.Living a healthy lifestyle and maintaining physical fitness can be a struggle–especially if you're doing it all on your own, but Fitness Evolution makes it easy (and fun)! All you have to do is show up.
