Has everything I need for a great workout - they welcome all. Tim (owner) is always available for advice and help. Amanda, one of the trainers, goes the extra mile. This place makes you feel like part of a community. No long term contract and you can work out anytime!

This is a great fitness center. It's so much better than the other options in the area. The gym has everything you need to train and it's open 24 hours. Tim the owner was awesome when I reached out about signing up. He made me feel very welcomed as a new member. Once you join you will want to stay.

Health Advantage is a quiet little gem of a gym in Northeast Columbia. I've been going to HA since sometime in 1993. The staff is the most capable I've ever experienced in dimness knowledge and guidance. I travel around the globe and I'm in many fitness centers every year and I've never seen a match with regard to staff knowledge and down to earth training guidance. The people that go to HA are respectful of each other and take pride in caring for equipment and watching out for each other. The equipment is no-nonsense effective and easy to use equipment. I train with a trainer and on my own. A+. If you're any age or sex and are serious about getting fit in a safe environment. This is it. Athletes, former athletes, first time gym people, anywhere in between....90 years old or 9. You will find them here.

I have been working out here at Health Advantage for many years, it has a warmth about the place and the people that are there and of course the trainer and owner Tim goes out of his way to make sure that you get the workout you need and does his best to see that you get the end result as long as you follow what he tells you to do both working out and nutrition. I recommend this place all the time to my friends and people that I meet that are looking to make themselves better and that's what Tim tries to do for anybody who comes to him to use his facility thanks Tim for an awesome place! It is definitely changed my life for the better so very much appreciate it, Gary

I heard about Health Advantage Fitness through a friend who is a member after complaining to her how I wasn't cut out for "big box" gyms like Planet Fitness etc. but needed a change in my lifestyle. I set up a meeting with the owner, Tim French, thinking I would just commit to a few sessions and that'd be it. Well I was wrong. It's been 4 months, and I look forward to my early morning personal training sessions with Tim each week. His positive and encouraging personality is contagious and sets the tone for my day. The workouts are tough but he makes them so interesting and engaging that time flies. The results and weight loss are just an added bonus. Such a hidden gem in Elgin/Columbia. Thanks Tim!

Not a huge gym but it had everything I needed for weight training. Never busy, 24-hr access. Very reasonable price. Tim knew my name after the first visit! He was willing to work with me and let me pay weekly during my 3-week winter break.
