I recently tried Soldier Fit Columbia, and while the workout itself was great, challenging,…read morehigh-energy, and definitely effective, I had a strange experience at check-in. I came in wearing a matching workout set, which is pretty normal for me, and was told I had to leave or cover up because they don't allow workout sets in support of body-positivity guidelines. I was honestly confused and caught off guard. Thankfully, I had a jacket with me, but it still felt like an odd rule. I get that every gym has its own policies, and I respect that, but this one felt a bit unusual. Once I got past that, the actual workout and trainers were solid, and I left feeling accomplished. Just a heads-up to anyone planning to go and check the dress code beforehand. Overall, a good workout, just a weird start.

I've been doing CrossFit for almost 3 years and recently made the decision to switch boxes; it was…read moregetting difficult to make my way into the city to work out every morning, and with my better half in law school every night, I needed a bit more flexibility in my life. CrossFit Catonsville is very close to home, they have a great class schedule (especially for a smaller gym), and kickboxing and yoga are included in their membership! Chris, the owner and head coach, is awesome; I find that his style of coaching is very focused on technique and he has lots of suggestions on how to scale WODs with the goal of getting stronger, not just finishing a workout. I've already PR'd on several lifts in the past month at CFC. Eric and Susan are also fantastic coaches, and I've really benefitted from some of the pointers and suggestions they have made. As anyone who does CrossFit will tell you, the community aspect is what keeps folks coming back for more. The people here are AMAZING and friendly, and I have felt so welcome from the beginning. This is a great box for people who have been doing CrossFit for a while, and an excellent box for beginners. The prices are really fair, and, as previously mentioned, you have a few other options for how to get a good workout in with kickboxing and yoga!

I heard about this gym from a friend in Howard County that is competing in a body building…read morecompetition, so I decided to stop by and check it out when in the area...well....my first reaction when I set foot into this gym was .....WOW! I was BLOWN AWAY!!! Upon entering this 24/7 gym (another awesome perk!), I was immediately greeted with a huge smile and HELLO by one of the owners. He introduced himself and pointed to his co-owner wife, Florence, who was working out. I waved to her as I toured the gym. I felt at home immediately!! They were so welcoming, friendly and super helpful! This "true gym" has everything you need from cardio equipment to the real deal tools to build your body for personal satisfaction or if you're competing. There is wide variety of weights to build muscle whether you occasionally workout or are a serious body builder. They even have a POSE room! If you're within 30-45 mins of this gym, this is the place for you. I was thoroughly impressed. They also have inspirational quotes on the walls to keep you motivated! EXCELLENCE!

He and his wife are very caring and kept the place in amazing condition every day. They went above and beyond to meet all the needs of each member and knew them all personally. Highly recommend if you live in Howard County--so much better than your typical Gold's or other franchise gym!

I love this gym. Small but has everything you need! Great atmosphere and it's 24/7 access which is…read moregreat. The room that they host classes in you're free to work out in when no classes are being hosted! It is often times empty so it's nice if you want mirror space and to be away from the other people working out in the main room. Pricing is more than fair and there's always clean bathrooms and fully stocked wipes and cleaning spray to clean your machines. I was going to the Columbia Golds Gym previously until it shut down during COVID and this one while smaller is just as high quality. Bathrooms are always really clean, and the staff is nice. I really love working out here and I highly recommend!

I started my membership here around New Years, prior to the Covid outbreak…read more Today I made my first trip back to the gym since it's reopened and I really couldn't be more disappointed. 1. Machines weren't spaced out at all to a lot for social distancing. 2. An employee checked my temperature at the door and went over the rules with me, but then proceeded to work out himself with no one monitoring the entrance. Nobody was going around cleaning machines -- it was complete honor system. Once the employee finished his work out, he left and nobody was watching the gym at all. 3. They couldn't even be bothered to add more wipe stations so that you don't have to walk half way across the gym to get and throw out a hand wipe. No new wipe stations, no new garbage cans to dispose of them. This encourages you to walk past other gym members. 4. Since nobody was enforcing masks, people regularly had them off. The employee told me you can have it off when lifting or doing cardio, but people were forgetting to put them back on and their cramped layout and lack of wipe stations/disposal bins encouraged people to get close to one another. 5. No signs on the walls about masks, no markers on the floor. 6. While on a cardio machine, I had a guy like 4 feet away from me on an adjacent machine not wearing a mask because he was working out. 7. When I came in, they told me that they purchased hand sanitizer. They pretty much bought 3 big push bottles of hand sanitizer, but they couldn't even be bothered to space them out on opposite sides of the gym. 2 of the 3 were on the counter at the entryway and the other one was by the Cardio equipment -- again ensuring that you have to walk past people to sanitize your hands. The only things that they've done that are positive: They closed the locker rooms with the exception of being able to use the bathrooms and told guests not to use the water fountains. They had the employee check my temperature, but since he was off working out himself it was easy for people to sneak by (also since he left early). I called the mainline from the parking lot and expressed my concerns and the guy on the phone was nice enough and told me that if I didn't feel safe I could suspend my membership for 6 months, which he said that he would do for me. He told me that they were going to get signs and filters etc next week. But, truth be told, that just made me angry because they obviously weren't ready to reopen and did anyway. I can't believe this was the best they could come up with after having 3 months to think about how to safely reopen. I told them that I would monitor their Facebook page and may come back when they've made positive changes, but upon thinking about it more, it really angered me how lightly they are taking customer safety. With about $500 they could have gone from 1 out of 10 in terms of Covid safety to at least a 4-10. It's either laziness, incompetence or apathy. I intend on looking for a new gym this weekend that's taking proper safety measures.

Not the most modern gym I have been to but I like the old school feel. its located in a shopping…read morecenter next to a all you can eat buffet. I guess if you want to pig out then work out you can. They have plenty of free weights and dumb bells. The cardio area is sufficient and they even have a spin class. I went on a gift pass with my niece (they charge $5) so if you know a member give it a try before you join. The monthly membership is $20, a pretty good value. They have a sauna that I didn't try and a small child's play area, they do not have any baby sitting service so if you have very young children who you need to supervise you should leave them at home. The staff there is friendly and if you want to bring in your own equipment they don't mind. I know there are a lot of gyms that wont let you even bring in some ankle weights.
