Fitness & Gyms in Columbia, MO

“Really enjoyed the setup process with Marie and all of the support from the staff. The setup in Columbia has everything I need. It’s a great gym to join since I travel for work and can utilize their other locations when I’m on the go.”

“I have attended and coached at CrossFit Fringe for the past 4 years while living in Columbia and attending the University of Missouri. This gym is a fantastic establishment that has been around for years, serving its strong community. Fringe has all the equipment needed to complete CrossFit workouts on a highly competitive level and provides a friendly environment. The thing that stands out to me most is the people and coaches at the gym. Everyone is incredibly inviting and makes you feel at home. The coaches are highly knowledgeable and are always striving to bring out the best in their athletes. CF Fringe hosts many community events to bring everyone together. I cannot believe how fast these 4 years have flown. I am graduating in May 2026, and I'm so thankful for everyone I have met along the way. If you are passing through Columbia or looking for a new gym to attend, I could not recommend this gym enough!”

“One of my fave places to go rather to relax on the Hydromassage bed or bench press a few pounds. The staff is super friendly and kind and definitely understanding. I really recommend this Planet Fitness and it’s definitely a NO JUDGEMENT ZONE ???
They keep it clean from the locker rooms to the fitness areas. They truly go above and beyond at this particular PF”

“Growing up I used other gyms, but recently I moved to the southside. I decided that Planet Fitness would be the best choice for me distance and price wise.

Turns out I was right, and I have been pleasantly surprised. Always had it in my head that PF was not for the professional gym goers like myself, but I see plenty of others there. We come in do our work, and have a clean environment to do it.

In the last month and half I have been going here I have gone 58 times, as per my handy PF app they came out with.

Allowing me to not only keep track, but also show my progress visually. One of the workers Jorge constantly encourages me to do more, and to push myself.

The manager Apollo does a great job coordinating staff, and remembering members. Takes a great deal of care into the maintenance and cleanliness of the facility. Which shows.

I just turned 30 I've been working out since I was 15, and I felt like I needed to get back on track with my fitness. I feel like I'm stronger than I ever was before.”

“CrossFit Aggregate is the only place that I will ever do crossfit. The encouragement and consistent support that I get from the coaches and community has changed my life. I don't really know what my life would look like without my 5:00 a.m. classes, and I really appreciate the work that goes into the workout structure. I've never been good at planning fitness routines, and they take all of the guessing out of that. I feel that I have an abundance of knowledge at my disposal through my coaches, and most importantly, it's just fun :)”

“I love the pace of the classes. We exercise hard with high expectations, but we get a chance to rest just enough to be to keep going. Everyone in the group is friendly and encouraging. When I am not able to do something, it's no big deal. There's always an accommodation for special needs.”

“I’ve been working out at various gyms for more than 16 years. Orangetheory is my favorite by far! The coaches here are all amazing, helpful, and knowledgeable. The benchmark and signature classes always give us a goal to strive for. It’s always something new and I’m done in an hour and in the best shape of my life. Love OTF COMO!”

“I’ve been going to this gym for a little over two years now. They offer kickoff events where you can meet with a trainer and do a “mock run” of what it would be like to have a personal trainer. I just met with Aaron and he was so knowledgeable, funny, and kind throughout the session. His background in nutrition, physiologist, and kinesiology kept him knowledgeable on how to shift my session as someone with a heart disease. I think he’s a fantastic trainer and if you’re looking to get into the gym, he’s the guy to work with!
My first experience in the gym was working with trainer Jon. I’d be remised if I didn’t mention how welcoming and kind he has been to me throughout my process. He makes sure to say hi when he sees me and is always willing to help even if your signed with him or not.
Gyms can be a really anxiety inducing place for a lot of people, and me included at the beginning, but the employees of Crunch fitness make going there enjoyable and fun. Crunch is so everyone of all fitness ranges and offers multiple classes and trainers to make the experience worth it for anyone who wants to go to the gym.”
