The Pro's Gym

Not a a gym for socializing if you're serious about training and want an excellent no nonsense gym with good equipment this is your place if people lifting hard and making a little. Noise offends you go to a planet Fitness. I travel for a living and always look forward to visiting power house Columbus

Old school gym in downtown Columbus. Red Roof Plus does not have its own gym so you have go here for a workout. 10 minute walk there and back so you can some extra steps in. Mostly weights with only a few aerobic machines upstairs. Picture of Arnie in his prime all over the walls. The changing room was a little rough and the hot water took some time to appear in the showers - plus you have to pay $1 for a towel.

This gym makes big improvements every season, I did not think it could get any better and it keeps getting better and better! Whoever the owner is must take a lot of pride in this stuff! I wonder if every Powerhouse Gym franchise flourishes like this downtown Gym in Columbus?

I have been a member of this gym for 8 years, and I have to say that after the remodel, this place has become a better environment to work out at. WORD OF CAUTION: When the Arnold is in town, this is packed. PACKED-since its one of the few gyms that is close to the convention center.

Although I’m only in Columbus about 2 weeks a year, I always go to this gym. Great location downtown. Great, helpful employees as well. They never try to get me to sign up for anything I don’t need. Excellent facility as well.

This review is based on my attempt to tour the gym today. I walked into the gym and asked the front desk associate if I could have a tour. He asked, "of what?... and I said, "the facilities." I don't think my request was odd. When searching for a gym, I usually ask for a tour and an overview of what is available. The associate then showed me the main workout area, but didn't go over what makes the gym special, what promotions are available, use of the sauna... nothing. He even hesistated when I asked if I could see the locker rooms (this is important to me because I want to make sure the locker room has everything I would need to get ready for work after a morning workout). I would have gladly left my ID with the front desk if there was a concern that I was there for any questionable reason. I had high hopes of joining this gym based on the reviews claiming that staff are friendly and helpful, but I did not get that impression today. The associate didn't even ask if I had any questions (which I did), or try to guage what my fitness goals are. Unfortunately, my search for a gym continues. I just hope the owner sees this and has a talk with the front desk about how to be more welcoming and strive to gain new members.

Worse place, i signed-up online at this gym and i had to move due to some emergency problem. I called the gym to cancel my membership and they guy told me they could not cancel my membership without me being there. Take into account that i am out of state and they wanted me to come in to cancel. I will not recommend this gym because they are not flexible and they will never accommodate you regardless of your situation. People are friendly if they are getting something out of you but whenever it comes to ending of membership or breaking of contract then you see the real side of them.

I have been going here for over 3 years since it's a quick 5 min walk from where I live. Affordable membership and it's a nice neighborly, unpretentious gym. I usually go for the group classes, which are varied enough with a mix of strength-training, high-intensity, yoga, spin, dance fitness, etc. Also has good variety of equipment and spaces to do your own thing.

Loaded with equipment; for your every day lifter, to physique competitor to powerlifter. Tons of mirrors, power racks, specialty bars, competition bench, monolift, the list goes on. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Hours to accommodate almost any schedule. Great locations for anyone, whether you're visiting for The Arnold, work downtown or live in the burbs.

Hands down one of the best gyms! That atmosphere is amazing and the staff is so nice!! I can’t wait to use the gym again when I’m back in town for the arnold this year! If you haven’t been yet, and you live in the area... WHAT’RE YOU WAITING FOR!? Sign up!!!!
