Training Grounds - Hilliard, Ohio

I am very disappointed in this gym. A warm, welcoming place turned into a hateful and non-inclusive environment. The upper management, who I will not name, talked behind the backs of multiple clients, both trainer and trainee alike, and created an environment that was hostile to everyone who weren’t their clients. There has also been multiple instances of racism - especially towards black clients, and it made me feel very uncomfortable. I will never be going back to this gym, and I cannot recommend this gym at all. For the gym claiming to be the gayest place in the 614, they aren’t very inclusive.

My personal trainer rented space at the Training Grounds and I worked out there for almost 12 months. It's a great gym with a wide variety of high quality equipment. There's something for everyone including a long stretch of turf for walking, running, mobile stretching, and pushing plates and sleds. Good locker room as well. I got to know some of the other trainers and they are great. Everyone is friendly and supportive.

I have to say this is great place to take their personal training class or all different type of your own workout. The trainers are so friendly and knowledgeable to do the right things for you.

Also the location is very convenient for people get in and out. I have a group of people using their studio for yoga classes twice a week since 2015. Lots of my friends are living at Dublin area, this place is just right in the middle which is really what we need! The owner also is so nice and friendly! We definitely continuing support them!

I am so Baffled, I went here three times on a credited free month as a first timer and loved it and got a meal plan. Such a free open place!! but I got pregnant not even half way through my free month. I told my trainer i have to cancel due to being pregnant she Congratulated me and offered to alter my plan for my pregnancy and even shorten the payment plan. and i told her with a 3rd child on the way i can not fit it into my budget. and she sent me a link to cancel my first payment and it included a $125 Cancellation fee. I messaged her concerned about it. Just asking why is there a fee i only came 3 times and i am on a free trial. why is it so high? I was so confused and honestly just looking for answers, wasn’t against paying. She always told me to communicate with her if i had questions. She didn't get back to me, a day went by. So i called the gym and spoke with a gentlemen, i told him my concerns. He told me that the gym is not responsible for the trainers. The trainers rent this place and have their own rules and rates. But he also told me my trainer coach Sajel Rollers was really nice and easy to work with and to just reach out to her again about it to even call her. I messaged her again letting her know i was still waiting for her response and that i spoke to the gym about my concerns. What happened next blew my mind! She was always so friendly and nice any other time before this! she sent me a voice memo saying “stop blowing up my phone! calling the gym is disrespectful! and rude you signed a contract! your Initial cancellation fee is $250 but because i thought u were a cool person i gave u the fee for $125 i can show you your contract but stop messaging me” this person wasn't like this at all when they wanted my $250. i paid my $125 hopefully i am done with this place forever! I honestly thought i found a friend in my trainer! Boy was i wrong!!!!!

I joined Training Grounds a couple of months ago, and always look forward to working out. Their trainers each have a unique style and approach to weight training that keeps me focused and interested.
Eddie took the time to accommodate my fitness needs with finding me a new trainer, and the one on one approach I received has worked well for me.
Good trainers and friendly staff!

The facilities are good, lots of equipment. Clearly their focus is on function, which is where it should be. In time I would expect to see a bit more polish.

You can only work here with one of the trainers so they are what will make the real difference.

Some cubbies or lockers could help, and a clock. Beyond that, a few chairs or benches would also be nice, but none of these are core requirements of the primary purpose of the facility.

I stopped in To check this place out and it’s much larger than I thought from the outside.

It’s very clean open modern and friendly. I like it because it’s right off sawmill and 270 easy access
