I couldn't be happier. Eugene & Martha are my favorites!! They are awesome, and the next day I know I have worked out. I consider this location to be my home studio now! Orangetheory is the perfect balance between cardio and free weights. It forces you to do the things you probably wouldn't do on your own, such as the rower. It's my arch nemesis but it really torches calories! Check it out!

Each class will be slightly different especially the 45 min vs 60 min classes but the overall format is time on treadmill then strength (or vice versa - I had the choice of starting on the floor vs tread). Very similar to Orange Theory type workout but no rower. The instructor, Sarah, was great - very welcoming and encouraging and kept great energy the whole time! Definitely worth checking out

I've only been with The UU for 4 months, but I can confidently tell you that I made the right…read morechoice. My trainer is Christian Livingston, and he is extremely knowledgeable in dealing with all levels of abilities. I am still fairly new to working out, and Christian is good about knowing how to push me without overwhelming me. My favorite thing about The UU is the community atmosphere! You'll meet Troy, one of the owners, during your first consult. You have a choice to just have a gym membership, or to add personal training on top of that (one-on-one; small group or large group sessions are available); there are also optional group classes. Also, all of the front desk staffers (I see Dylan and Joey the most) know me by first name... and It's not uncommon for everyone to stop at the front desk after their workouts to talk to whoever is working; the staff is more than just friendly - they are personable. I workout 4x times a week - three of those sessions are with a small group that trains together with Christian; our group focuses on compound lifting with conditioning. The 4th day is a boxing cardio class. I also schedule appointments with their in-house chiropractor, Dr. Doug; and occasionally with their in-house licensed massage therapist. However, they offer more than just these two services - hence their full name: The Ultimate U Total Health. (Side note, they also have babysitting). When my friends see that I'm lifting heavy weights, they always assume that I'm doing CrossFit. But this is NOT a CrossFit gym. Yes, we have the same community atmosphere as CrossFit, but the biggest difference is that all of our trainers are college educated (mostly in some sort of Sports and Exercise Science) AND they are nationally certified - so their goal is to keep you healthy and injury free. When you first start with a trainer, they'll ask what kind of of surgeries have you had, or do you have any injuries that you are prone to - and then he/she modifies all of the exercises to work around it. All of the trainers know how to keep pushing you without breaking you!! Also, not every training session does heavy lifting... you are placed in a group that will motivate you to show up and keep moving. As a small business owner, I appreciate all of the excellent customer service and care that the entire staff demonstrates. I don't just feel like a client... they treat me like a friend. If you are looking for a gym to be more than just a gym... then I would highly recommend coming out to visit MY gym in New Albany. (We are right off of 161 - Johnstown Rd/62 exit - so it's super easy to access).

I LOVE IT HERE! I…read morecannot state enough good things about this gym. I wanted to get back to my previous fitness level so I went on Thumbtack (I had 3 matches pop up but after meeting with Troy one of the owners I stopped searching) to look for a personal trainer and found Ultimate U. Best find ever, the name says it all! I've been to Planet Fitness, Lifetime, L.A. Fitness and none of them compare to the UU; here is my quick rundown on how awesome this gym is :) 1. Troy McGowan has an amazing talent of setting you up with the right trainer! 2. I've been working out with Drew M. and Karyn H. I have the utmost confidence(and respect) in their skills and knowledge and I'm a tough cookie! 3. The front desk staff...warm, inviting, friendly, a pleasant departure from previous gyms I've been to. 4. You are respected no matter what your fitness level is! 5. There is so much positive energy pumping through the veins of this gym and it's staff that you can't help but be excited to be a member! Last but not least... 6. Fitness is a lifetime commitment, the Ultimate U makes it easy to turn commitment into achievement! And it's clean!!!!!!!!

Melt is one of the best! I've been going here for about 3 years now.. the space is beautiful,…read moreclean, and incredibly welcoming. The overall atmosphere makes working out feel motivating instead of intimidating. The instructors are knowledgeable, encouraging, and really focused on proper form. The workouts are challenging but approachable, and you always leave feeling stronger and energized. Even though the classes are group-based, the instructors make it easy to modify movements if needed, which makes the classes accessible for different fitness levels. I also love how intentional the workouts feel, they're effective without feeling overwhelming. It's truly a studio that makes you look forward to your workouts. The only thing I would change is the cancellation period - 12 hours is a long time for things to come up. I recommend Melt any chance I get and would absolutely encourage anyone looking for a supportive and effective workout to check it out.
