I've been attending the Spot for a year now, and the quality of training cannot be beat…read more Previous to joining The Spot I had a couple years experience of doing crossfit. My primary goals are to stay fit, learn to lift weights, and improve my health in a way that was fun. I get bored and side tracked easily. I like group classes because the regular schedule and coaching keeps me on task and committed. If you are someone who is looking at crossfit or had done it before, and you're looking for something that makes sense but is a generalized routine, this is the place for you. The only difference is that The Spot actually makes sense. Their training routines are designed to get you fit in an intelligent way, not in a way that is unnecessarily intense and frustrating for the sake of being intense. What really impresses me about The Spot is their intelligent and insightful coaches. I have learned and changed a lot about my body and body mechanics since being here. On my first day a coach noticed my back was hurting from a lift and we have since spent the last year being given the appropriate exercises I needed to lift properly and utilize muscles that were previously under utilized. I'm no longer riddled with constant back pain from working out. The quality of my lifts such as front and back squats and deadlifts have improved because I am using my core to stabilize now. The GAINZ have been more than what I have lifted on the bar, but also how well it feels now. The primary set up of a workout session at the Spot goes as such: warm up, main lifting block, then 2 or 3 circuits focused on accessories and conditioning. It's impossible to feel bored. Much of the accessory work involves balance and stability exercises, which I have noticed have really paid off especially in the leg strength environment. The place is very open to a range of body types and back grounds. I've never been very athletic, but all the exercises are designed so that everyone is doing the same thing and no one is ever ahead or behind, yet everyone is being appropriately challenged. I exercise alongside incredible athletes, and I also get to watch new comers get a great workout while being included with the class the whole time. I highly recommend The Spot. I will probably be attending as long as I am in Columbus and The Spot is open. My favorite coaches are Billy, Steve, Levi, Jay, and Maeve. They all know their stuff. They know how to be encouraging. They now how to be patient and listen to you. They're all affable and fun. The owner is very passionate about what he does.

Anna is a new instructor and is great as well, has a lot of enthusiasm and attention to detail as well. Claire is a rock star for communication and getting their accounts set up. Highly recommend for all ages, from youth to the adults, the instructors care about their members and want them all to get the most out of their experiences.

This is unfortunately my first review and is probably the worst review that I would've given to-date because this is the worst Anytime fitness that I've ever visited. This gym looks like it hasn't been dusted in at least three weeks . The bathroom was filthy, I visited this gym at 8 o'clock in the morning and inside the bathroom, the garbage is full of toilet paper, the toilet was filthy, the shower was filthy, with rust stains dripping down the wall. Dust everywhere Filth on the floor, it was just disgusting. The actual lifting area of this gym is very small, anyone who is serious about their fitness, will find this gym unacceptable. If you just want to get a quick 15 minute workout, jump on the treadmill, stairmaster, elliptical, this gym would be OK. Outside of that, I would not recommend. Sorry that I did not grab any pictures, again this is my first review on yelp. From now on, I will review every single anytime fitness that I visit, and will provide pictures. R.C.

I'm nearly 61 and stronger and healthier than I've ever been. They helped me lose 70 lbs which was cool when I got to walk my daughter down the aisle at her wedding feeling good about myself and not worrying about the pictures to follow. It was even cooler when nearly 3 years later I held my granddaughter in my arms and felt confident I would be healthy and active and functional as she grew up. Enough about me. The concept of small group personal training flat out works. Never more than 5 people to coach so you get personal attention. You also get inspired, pushed, and motivated by the other folks. Worried about your age or your fitness level? Don't be. They make it work. The workouts are varied so you never get bored. Have or had some injuries? Don't worry about it. The coaches will modify anything so you stay healthy (or get better) and still provide you a challenging workout. By the way, I could do a separate review just on how good all the coaches are. Finally I will tell you that I assumed a high level of expertise from the coaches. What I didn't expect was to make friends and feel part of a community like I have and do. Bottom line this place is special. You should check it out.

I have been an SOSer for 5 years now. Which makes it shocking that I'm just now getting around to…read morewriting review, especially since I'm such a mega-fan! I first heard about SOS from a few folks when I worked at L Brands. They had a few loyal customers with whom I worked. To be honest, I was a little intimidated when I'd see these folks post about their workouts on social media. I had thought about trying it circa 2017, but was too intimidated (my loss!). But in 2019, I ended up with a stress fracture while marathon training. I was able to barely finish my training for the NYC Marathon, which I did successfully complete in November 2019. But at that point, it was evident that I couldn't just keep running marathons without incorporating strength training into my routine. So in Christmas Week 2019, I started with the 7 class starter pack just to try it out. My first class was The Course with Kelsey. I felt comfortable because I knew Kelsey from work and luckily a few other co-workers happened to be in the class as well. I still remember during the warm up, I was thinking "dang this is tough!" And Kelsey even said "Much different than running a marathon, right Chelsea?!" She couldn't have been more spot on! I ended up feeling like the class was super tough but I was paired up with a coworker who was so supportive and kind (thank you, Shideh, if you're reading this!). By the time my 7 class pass was up, I was hooked and became a monthly member. I even joined Team Tread (their half & full marathon training program) in January to start training for the Nashville Half in April 2020. Unfortunately for me, my SOS morning routines were abruptly halted in March 2020. But luckily, my team tread registration got me into the "digital studio" which I had no idea what it was at the time. I very quickly uncovered that it's all the same studio instructors and they have recorded classes with new uploads almost daily as well as a huge library of online classes (which as you can imagine has only grown in the past 5 years). I did what everyone else was doing and immediately ordered as many dumbbells, resistance bands, and other equipment to build up a "home SOS studio" and my equipment has been growing ever since. I moved to Arizona in summer 2021, and have continued to be a dedicated Digital Studio user and advocate. Whenever I come home to Ohio (whether Cbus or Cincy), I get giddy at the thought of going to classes in person and it's a treat to choose which classes I'll take and with which instructors. I got married in June 2024 and I purchased the "Badass Bride" classes on the Digital Studio. As I was taking them and leaving comments the owner, Gretchen, messaged me and said she wanted to send me an SOS wedding gift. You'd never believe how touched I was to see a SOS tank, hoodie, sweat towel and t-shirt show up the week of my wedding. I'm still so honored by these thoughtful gifts. Someone I've never even met in person (which is hard to believe given how obsessed I am with SOS lol!) went out of their way to make my wedding week all the more special. I can honestly say SOS Digital Studio has helped me get in the best shape of my life. I feel like I personally know all of the trainers (I don't have social media anymore, but when I did, I followed all of them, so again, felt like I kew them personally). When I was in Hawaii for my wedding, SO many people were asking me about my arms and complimenting me. I kept trying to tell them about the DS and how special SOS is. I will always be a dedicated and loyal fan. It's become such a part of my routine that I'm on Christas Break now with my husband in Kansas (where he's from) and I've brought my ankle weights, light weights and loop bands just so I can get some classes in. Thank you, Gretchen and team for helping me be the best version of myself every day! Can't imagine what I'd do without the DS and my SOS training crew! (Only word of advice to newbies- the System DOES work! Don't skip out on any classes. As you can imagine, being a marathon runner, I favored all of the cardio classes. But it wasn't until I really started incorporating High & Tight as I prepared for my wedding that I noticed the chiseled arms that I'd always wanted. It's a well-rounded program that works wonders as long as you incorporate ALL of the classes).

It was my first time there but I got no introduction to the studio or space and didn't feel very welcomed. The class itself was ok - it's under infrared so I got a decent sweat but I'm not sure the workout itself was as hard as my sweat would lead you to believe (no second day soreness). The instructor said it was a old class layout they tried to revamp so I'd be willing to give it another shot but the overall format/moves felt like they were trying to do too much and less cohesive. Four stars mostly based on reputation alone as I've heard great things from others and think it may have been a one off experience.
