I love this place. The coaches are great and the people are welcoming. Training here for 6 months has made a huge difference in my strength, energy and balance.

I'm kicking myself for being hesitant to start my teen daughter and wish I'd done it sooner! She looks forward to her sessions and can't wait to share her progress towards her goals. I really appreciate how workouts are geared towards her. So many positives, would highly recommend-- don't wait.

I have been training with Showtime for a little over a year now and the improvements I have seen with my strength training and overall health have been immense. When I started training, I never thought I would be able to lift anywhere near as heavy as I do now but with the help of Nick and Joe I keep getting stronger.

When I started training, I never thought I would be able to lift anywhere near as heavy as I do now but with the help of Nick and Joe I keep getting stronger. Everyone at Showtime is very friendly and personable and working out with them helps keep you accountable which can sometimes be the hardest part. They make training enjoyable. I would recommend Showtime to anyone looking to improve their fitness! Less

Absolutely love training at this gym! Nick and his team know their stuff and make every session effective and enjoyable. The gym is always clean, and everyone - from staff to members are friendly. It’s a great place to focus on your fitness with people who truly care about your progress.

I've been training at Showtime for a little over year and it's been a great experience. Nick, Joe, and Caleb have been great trainers to work with. Coming from not working out for many years it was a little intimidating returning to a gym and Showtime made it an easy transition. They offer a lot of different options and programs for anyone new or experienced in working out or anyone who works full time and has difficulty finding the time to work out. Showtime keeps you accountable to the commitment of working out and provides you the knowledge to continue to better yourself mentally and physically. It's overall a great gym! If you're thinking about working out and don't know where to start get in contact with Nick! Less

Showtime Fitness is a phenomenal gym with group workouts (metcon) that has led to feeling better, moving better, and making friends! Every trainer genuinely cares ab your progress and your goals, and encourages you every step of the way.

Two of our sons have long standing training experiences with Nick and his staff. Their development into top flight athletes has paralleled their improvements with Nick's program. Bottom line is, regardless of age, you can't do better than Nick's program. Less

This was an amazing experience for my son Mason. He completed 6 months of 3day/week sessions and they transformed him. Thank you Nick for everything you have taught Mason and helped him through! Your staff is wonderful. I know we will be back for more!

Can't say enough positive about Showtime. You can tell it's successful because the heart that's put into it. Ashlin has made huge strides in her goals with the program designed for her pitching. We are beyond grateful!

Nick has been a blessing for my husband and I. We are 75. My husband dealt with balance issues. I needed help with balance and strength. I have two artificial knees .. The two months we have worked with him and definitely made a difference. Not only physically but our confidence in our abilities has grown. I really recommend his gym for making your health better .

When my 14 yr old daughter screams she can see her back muscles and "I'm getting buff!" Any parent would be happy to see their kid gaining confidence and strength. Very happy with Nick and everyone at Showtime!

I started with ShowTime in October and I’ve never felt stronger. I love that every trainer analyzes your form. The workouts are great and i like that I’m slowly lifting heavier.

I sent an email inquiry to Showtime about nine months ago, not thinking I might follow through with going to a "real" gym or start working with a personal trainer.

I sent an email inquiry to Showtime about nine months ago, not thinking I might follow through with going to a "real" gym or start working with a personal trainer. I'm around 1,000 years old and have never been wrongly accused of being athletic (or coordinated for that matter). I used to walk and run on the bike path fairly regularly to keep my (then 30-something) weight in check, until I developed plantar fasciitis. It limited my abilities to do the kind of exercising I liked, and I slowly gained weight over the years, feeling more and more unhealthy, and developing what one might call "oh damn, she just gave up." So when I first met Nick at the gym, I had no illusions that I would make it past one training session, and basically told him so. But I signed up for twice a week anyway, showing the world I could at least pretend to try. In any case, Nick chuckled when I said that, and that made me smile and relax. And I would say that's what has kept me going for nine months. Nick's combination of serious training with an entirely relaxed and humorous outlook on working out... and everything else. I now go three times a week, both personal training and Met-Con group, and though it's sometimes hard to make myself go, it's always a lot of fun, and I leave on a high every time. I've lost tons of weight (literally 2-tons, swear on my mother) and gained muscle I've never had. Everyone has noticed the huge difference, and I feel not only ten years younger, but a little proud of myself, too. Less

What we did not expect in addition to all the improvements in her athletic abilities is the confidence she now has. She is so happy and proud. Her trainer helps every session to build her up and show her that she is capable of doing things that she never thought she could accomplish. Her pitching speed has increased and her ability to run and push off the mound has improved tremendously . I would recommend for anyone both children and adults who would like to improve their athletics abilities or if someone just needs a professional trainer that will become a friend to help you improve your lifestyle, health, and confidence.

Great place to go and train, especially if you’re looking to become better all around from a physical fitness standpoint. The trainers are great to to work with and take the time to help, no matter where you are at in your fitness journey. The people I train with are also supportive. Great environment!

We recently took our 13 year old gymnast to Nick after she suffered a back fracture that made her step away from gymnastics. In a few months Showtime increased her strength and confidence. She has resumed tumbling and is cheerleading for her school.

I started going to Showtime after my college athletics ended. What I love about showtime is that the classes have both strength training and overall well-being training. Showtime is such a welcoming gym and everyone is there for the same reasons. Whether you were a college athlete or are just getting started, this gym has something for you.

Showtime is the absolute best. My son loves going to workout and see the staff. He leaves smiling and loves to share his PR with me when he gets done for the day. Thanks and keeping doing what you’re doing.

I appreciated all the special one on one attention I received here. I needed to get stronger and rehab my injured calf. They were able to help me in a short 5 week time period (2 sessions a week) and I appreciated their help. Now I am ready to head to NYC for the Macys Day Parade and carry my marching snare drum.

I cannot give anymore thanks to Nick, Claire and everyone at Showtime. From High school, college and professional softball, they were always guiding and helping me throughout my journey. If it was not for Nick, I would have never been able to play at the levels I did. Not only are you going to be taken care of physically but, you will be gaining so much emotionally and mentally!

Highly recommend Showtime, consistently outstanding. The trainers are friendly and highly skilled. The workouts are great and love seeing the growth and improvement they have given me.

From someone who has little experience in lifting, this gym, program, and trainers, have been nothing but supportive. I feel better, physically and mentally, and enjoy going to every class, even at 5 a.m.!

Showtime Strength is a great place to train. I was hesitant to start training because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to keep up but Nick is so encouraging and the workouts are tailored to my needs. Training here has been one of the best decisions I’ve made.

My daughter has worked with Nick and others off and on over the past 5 years and it shows. We can definitely tell the difference from when she does goes and when she stops. She get a tough workout but it pays off.

We would recommend Showtime to all parents of young athletes! Our daughter has been training there for over a year now and has shown huge improvements in her athletic performance and overall health. They develop a training plan specific to your athlete and work on achieving their goals. She is physically fit and more confident in her performance thanks to the wonderful trainers there!

I have been training here for 7+ years and I would not be where I am today if it wasn’t for this gym and the amazing coaches. There is something offered for everyone here. 10/10 recommend!

I’ve been going to Showtime for years now, and it is hands down the best gym I have been to. Everybody is a family there and wants what’s best for your future and fitness goals. A very good environment and even better equipment to fulfill your needs. Highly recommend!

Premium equipment and excellent training staff with years of experience in all areas of fitness makes this place one of the top training facilities in Central Ohio.

Nick and the staff at Showtime Strength and Performance are experts in their industry. They helped propel our daughter's abilities to the collegiate level and are currently helping our son improve his strength and lifting technique. I highly recommend this gym if you are looking for top-notch and personalized training! I also have to mention this gym is kept meticulously clean and sanitized!

I’ve been going to Showtime for over 6 years and I have loved my experience here. Nick is a great trainer and very knowledgeable in helping clients. Everyone is very friendly and enjoyable to workout with!

I am a 70 year old male who was having issues with balance and gait. My physician recommended Showtime and it has quite literally changed my life. After having 2 hip replacements, 1 knee replacement and rotator surgery on both shoulders I was not in good shape, but Nick and Showtime has put me on a road to recovery. Nick pushes you so that you can be your best. I highly recommend

Nick and Emily have improved my strength tremendously over the past 6 months. I train with them to get stronger for golf, and over this winter I have gained at least 30 yards off the tee! I 100% recommend working with them, because they really care about you getting mentally tougher, stronger and becoming a better person as well!

Can't recommend Showtime enough! I joined the MetCon group in October 2022 after several knee injuries. In just 7 months I have gained a substantial amount of muscle, and have noticed I have more energy than I used to! The workouts are challenging, but rewarding. Nick is a great trainer who listens and will help you achieve the results you want!

I had I’ve had a great experience with Nick thus far. I really appreciate the fact that his workout protocols are tailored to each individual client. He’s also very down to earth and relatable, I would highly recommend him to anyone at any fitness level.

Nick and his team are great to work with. I have twin boys that had never been to a gym and worked out formally. It was the off season for them as they play baseball.

Great place. Been doing the met-con classes for about a year now. Nick and the other trainers are very knowledgeable and will push you.

Showtime is an excellent facility! Very clean and loaded with state of the art equipment. Nick and the other trainers are the best around when it comes to strength training or training for a specific function or sport. Nick helped me shatter personal records in all the big three lifts. I would highly recommend Showtime for any fitness goal and age group!

Amazing place to train! Nick really knows his stuff across everything he offers. Fantastic facility with everything you could ever need and always well maintained and organized. By far the cleanest gym I've ever been in.

Highly recommend Showtime. Been going since I was in high school and still haven’t left 6 years later.

My daughter has been working out here for softball all winter. We have definitely seen her strength grow thank you to all the staff at Showtime!

Perfect place to continue a lifelong lifestyle of fitnessing. Coach Showman is invested in you as an athlete and a human. He takes the time to gear your workout to not only your goals but new/old injuries so you can continue to fitness without further complications. Super responsive to any changes in programming or problems. Forever grateful he responded when I asked to train

Great place to train and pricing is very competitive. I take my 12 year old son there and Emily and Nick are both amazing. They provide him with custom workouts based on his age, personal goals, strengths and weaknesses. He loves working out here because they not only push him but they make it fun. Watching his progress has been incredible. I highly recommend Showtime Strength and Performance!

I have been training here for years and now every member of my family goes here. The trainers are highly knowledgeable and work with all types of people. You couldn’t ask for a better gym!

The gym is clean and spacious. The trainers are knowledgeable in helping individuals with their personal wellness goals while keeping safety at the forefront. Group training provides a positive environment with scheduling flexibility and can efficiently advance strength, mobility, and endurance. Would recommend for all fitness levels.

Nick and staff find a way to make my teen WANT to workout! They are knowledgeable and encouraging to young athletes! The location is great and the facility has everything you could want for a complete workout!

I had been crossfitting for roughly 8-9 years and was seeking a different style of fitness. My body had felt pretty beat up as far as my shoulders and knees felt and actually was dealing with some heart issues. All of these problems resolved after roughly a month at showtime. I participated in the metcon class that focuses a lot on weight lifting with a short cardio session roughly 3 days a week I would say. I was walking out of the gym differently, with energy to still tackle my day instead of feeling completely fatigued. My strength increased, and some of my times on CrossFit workouts actually improved. I still do high intensity CrossFit workouts, maybe 1 with a max of two times a week. I will never go back to CrossFit 5 days a week after learning how much better and stronger I feel at this gym. If you’re on the edge just give it a try for a month. Less

At showtime I am in the adult metcon class. Showtime has been a great way to get active and be held accountable. While at showtime I’ve learned new exercises and the proper way to do them. I would recommend showtime to everyone from athletes to adults. The metcon class is great for advanced and new first time participants.

I’ve been working with Nick the past couple months and love the programming. I can feel myself getting stronger and being able to do more. He has created programming for me that continues to incrementally challenge me. I can’t say enough about Nick and Showtime. If you’re looking to make real changes to your health and physical well being this is the place to be.

Showtime is the place to be! If your looking to get in shape or just live a healthy lifestyle. I’ve been training with Nick for sometime now and I can say he’s been one of the best strength coaches I’ve had and overall is a very genuine and great person. He helped me prepare for the Tokyo summer Olympics and I look forward to working with him throughout this next Olympic quad!

My son worked with both Nick and Emily and loved the hands on instruction they would provide. He felt the off season workout was in line with what was needed to help maintain being a collegiate athlete and would definitely recommend them to others that have that goal as well!

My Daughter loves her workouts with Showtime. Great Trainers who push you to perform at your best. Nick and Emily have been professional while maintaining a professional, personal, and encouraging relationship as well. Prepared her as an athlete for her endurance, stamina, and strength.

Since I have been working out at Showtime I have seen nothing but positive results in my strength and fitness. Nick and his crew do a great job of creating great workout plans that cater to you!

After training with Nick and Emily at Showtime I became significantly stronger after just one summer. Showtime not only makes athletes stronger and faster, but also prioritizes getting to know each and every client on a personal level. Going to Showtime has definitely increased my athletic performance and exceeded my expectations.

Showtime is the place you want to be. Nick and the rest of the crew run a great show and put an emphasis on the person, and not just their numbers. Constantly breeding high-level athletes left and right. Any athletes in the central Ohio area should seriously consider training here!

I'm not really sure how they are over at showtime strength and performance, but I bet they're good people 😊. I work next door and every day my phone asks me how they were. So, I'm writing this review in hopes that my phone will quit asking me about the place! Sorry my review doesn't really help out! Thanks for reading.

Phenomenal is the first word that comes to mind when I think of Showtime and Nick. The most important thing to look for in a coach and facility for your strength and performance is looking for a coach who genuinely cares.

Phenomenal is the first word that comes to mind when I think of Showtime and Nick. The most important thing to look for in a coach and facility for your strength and performance is looking for a coach who genuinely cares. And that is what you will find with Nick and his staff at Showtime. Coaches who genuinely care about you and your success. This is what separates Showtime from the rest of the gyms in Columbus. It's a family here. You're surrounded by people who want the best for you. I know when I have kids this is who will be overseeing their training. You'd be doing yourself a disservice by not trusting Showtime with your health and wellness. Less

Nick Showman is not only one of the best trainers, but one of the best people. I started working out with Nick & Showtime in-person while I was home for the summers throughout graduate school.

Nick Showman is not only one of the best trainers, but one of the best people. I started working out with Nick & Showtime in-person while I was home for the summers throughout graduate school. I have now transitioned to on-line programming. Throughout both, Nick has listened to; and worked with my changing goals, and worked with my constantly changing work and school schedules. Nick truly cares about his athletes and clients, and meets them at their level, and builds them up based on their individual goals, needs, and abilities. I look forward to continue working with Nick as my goals progress. I would enthusiastically recommend Showtime to any person, at any level. Less

Ive been going to showtime for about 5 years and I can honestly say it is my favorite gym to workout at. I have gotten faster & incredibly stronger since going there. I also have noticed great results in my performance in softball because of this. The trainers also form relationships with you so they understand what your goals are and push you to achieve them.

The trainers really know how to push the client to get them to succeed with the goals that they want to reach! It doesn't matter if you are still in middle/high school or an adult they welcome anybody with opened arms and can lead you down the right path when it comes to reaching your fitness goals!

Nick Showman and his staff at Showtime Strength and Performance are top notch!! They care about each individual athlete building not only the physical, but the mental part of their sports. Both of our daughters train here and their coaches notice the strength, speed and confidence they are gaining!!

I’ve been going to this gym for almost 3 years and I have become stronger, faster and have more energy. John Holloway is my trainer and he’s taught me proper technique with weight training and he’s pushed me to increase my weight. He’s very professional and he loves what he does.

I have been training at Showtime for almost 7 years and I have noticed a tremendous improvement in my sport. I have gotten bigger, faster, and stronger and I couldn’t have been able to play at the next level without Showtime! It’s a great place to train and the trainers are awesome! I highly recommend ☺️

I have been training with Nick at Showtime for at least two years. His knowledge and professionalism are top notch and the atmosphere of the gym is positive and inviting. I highly recommend!

Excellent facility, equipment, and programMing. Proven track record with athletes and improved athletic performance. I have learned a ton from Nick. Results speak for themselves. Go check them out!

My daughter trained here for 2 years and Nick increased her strength and helped her get ready for college softball. She enjoyed training here. My son also trained here this past summer and they helped get him ready for football season. It’s a perfect place for any athlete to train! They will both be going again next summer!.

Top of the line facility with more than enough equipment to help any athlete reach their goals. All the trainers are extremely knowledgeable with the experience to back it up as well. Could not recommend enough.

The staff at Showtime not only knows what they are doing but also cares about every client and helping them achieve their goals. I have been going to Showtime for over 7 years.

Showtime is a welcoming, competitive atmosphere where the trainers push you to become the best player and person you can be! My performance, strength and speed improved tremendously while working out at showtime. When looking for a gym where the trainers push you to be the best and care for you just as much as a person, Showtime is hands down the best gym in the area.

Nick and his team are great in the world of fitness and business. His facility is top notch with very knowledgeable trainers and lifters at their site. They are willing to help anyone who steps through the door and is happy to learn top notch material. They also sell good equipment and supplements that will help anyone in the fitness journey.

Excellent strength training and conditioning facility.

Have been training at Showtime through my high school and college career. By far the best decision I have made was being apart of Showtime.

My daughter has been training here twice a week for over a year now. Nick and all the trainers are top notch! They specialize in young athletes and make safety their top priority. I truly believe this has been the best investment in her athletics we’ve made!

Great place to train. Very professional and knowledgeable staff.

Showtime Strength is honestly one of a kind. I started training here as a college athlete. Training with Nick and his team improved my performance tremendously. Not only did my sport-specific performance, volleyball, improve by leaps and bounds, but my nagging overuse injuries bothered me less. I continued to train with Showtime post-college, and since then I've completed two half marathons and 10 triathlons. Keeping Nick's strength training in my routine has allowed me to stay healthy and fit. I'm now in my late 20's and I'm still playing competitive adult volleyball, soccer and racing. The programs that Showtime uses are GOOD for your body, they will make you stronger, healthier, decrease your chance of injury and improve your stamina. They're perfect for competitive athletes, and for adults who want to keep enjoying active lifestyles without injury. I know my continued work here is what allows me to keep playing competitive sports without major injury. Finally, I have to gush over Showtime Strength and Nick for his work with my parents. I had been trying to convince my mom and dad to add strength work to their routine for years. I had them meet with Nick, and now, years later the difference is profound. My dad's back issues are almost non-existent and he's deadlifting more than I am! My mom is slinging full packs of water bottles around in the grocery store like it's nothing. Neither of them were trained in the weight room prior. Showtime met them at their level and created programing for them based on their goals, to best suit their fitness levels, taking into consideration past injuries and health concerns. I honestly cannot say enough about how great this gym is. Get here. Get their online programs. Get your kids here. It's the BEST. Less

I have been attending Showtime's MetCon class for over 2 years now and wouldn't ever think of going anywhere else. Showtime has great trainers, no judgement atmosphere, and is family friendly. I highly recommend this facility!

Have been going here for about 5 years now. A very professional but friendly place. Great trainers who make you feel welcome.

Great Gym with Skilled trainers who take attention to detail to the next level. You won't be disappointed. Professional atmosphere that will cater to every level of athlete.

Incredibly knowledegable staff that know how to train anyone, no matter what your goal - pro athlete or just trying to be more capable moving around the house. You'll absolutely walk out of here stronger than when you went in, and meet some good folks while you're at it.

Nick and John are outstanding, along with the entire Showtime Team. Great programs for all ages especially the youth group led by Owner Nick Showman.

One of the nicest and cleanest gyms I’ve ever stepped foot into. Top notch coaches that really know how to better their clients and top notch equipment throughout the entire gym.

Nick owns and operates the number one gym in Newark, Ohio and for the surrounding area. It is a premier place to train if you are looking for results. Great people and atmosphere for all ages!

Showtime has helped me become a better athlete and teammate. I have been able to grow in strength, work ethic, and determination over the past several years. Nick takes the time to ensure everyone is competing and getting better every rep of a workout. Showtime has helped me become a competitive collegiate athlete.

Dynamic and experienced staff that are vested in the success and health of their clients. Great facility with awesome equipment selection.

I trained with Nick Showman and his staff at Showtime Strength and Performance for the four years that I played college football. No one else in the state prepares you for the college game like he does. He takes a professional and personalized approach to everything he does. Whether it's strength, speed, or conditioning he does it better than anyone.

Clean functional facility with top of the line equipment. Nick runs a great gym, I would recommend for anyone looking to improve their strength and conditioning

Nick has continually produced and developed awesome athletes across all sports for as long as I have known him and then some.

A top-notch facility that is unmatched within the area.

To have the knowledge of NSCA certified coaches that also practice conjugate is rare and most effective as a speed and strength athlete.

A top tier facility. There are plenty of other gyms around central Ohio that you can send your athlete to. However none of them stack up to the quality of Showtime.

Nick has really pushed our daughter to become a better athlete. He is a great motivator and pushes everyone to be their best.

My son has been doing this training for a month now and the confidence he has gained and momentum in his training I think is wonderful. All the hands on that the trainers give the kids is unbelievable. I give showtime 5 stars on how they work and train their athletes and adults.

I’ve always loved working out at Showtime! Great people and great results! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone�

Nick is an amazing trainer.

Doesn’t matter what your physical condition is, Nick meets you right where you are, without judgment; and you will get stronger. Thanks for the planks Nick�.

I can't be biased. My cousin John is an excellent trainer...pushes you for results.

Great Gym, I think if anyone gets a chance you should check it out.

Great job by Nick and the Showtime crew. Great meet yesterday, we'll run and organized.

Fantastic people who love what they do and do it superbly!!!!

Amazing place. Thank you John for working with me to get me where I am at today and where I want to be.
