Elite Fitness is the best gym in the area for multiple reasons. Let's talk equipment: they have it all. Power racks, Bench Presses, Deadlift platforms unlimited barbells, Ivanko brand plates and even bumper plates; the essentials. Every machine you'd ever need (hammer strength, cables, weight stack) and some you've probably never seen but might want to try. TWO sets of dumbbells and all the cardio equipment you need including push/pull sleds and heavy tires. The atmosphere at Elite Fitness is what keeps every member coming back. There is something in the air. I won't go into detail because words won't bring it justice. You have to at least visit to understand. The members are awesome it's like a family. Cornelius and Nicole are very knowledgeable and Cornelius had advanced experience in both bodybuilding and powerlifting. You won't find a better PLACE to better YOURSELF no matter what your goals are. I promise.

This place is my second home. Don't judge a book by it's cover- everybody is super friendly! People will know your name in no time. All the equipment and gear you could ever need. Not to mention the owners are always present or quickly available. Definitely the neighborhood gym!

This gym is the best of "all" worlds. Usually, the phrase "hardcore gym" elicits images of juice-heads and dirty, half-broken equipment and slamming plates. Elite Fitness is a gym I'd categorize as a "real" hardcore gym, but for all for all the right reasons- -Engaging owners and staff committed to their own fitness as well as that of their clients and members. This is not some investment for them- it's their lifestyle and they are 100% committed to helping others improve and transform. -Equipment; all the important basics: Squat/ power racks, bars, bells, etc-- kept CLEAN and in working order (hard to find these days in any gym)-- as well as great new cardio and weight machine gear. Plenty to go around and rarely crowded. -Mutual respect and support between members and staff. No intimidation or B.S. Show up and work out without being bothered. -This is a bodybuilder's gym, AND an "everyman's" gym for anyone looking to improve without being judged. If you want advice, you'll get honest advice or assistance. -The outdoor and "crossfit" type stuff is here, too. Bars, tires, chains, sleds and other conditioning gear. -24-hour access- something lacking in many serious gyms, but at Elite Fitness it's included in your membership. -Reasonably and fairly priced. And NO CONTRACTS. There are other decent options in the area, but they all require contracts that are harder to get out of than a Klingon blood-feud. Seriously- try to get out of a contract at Peak Fitness or Gold's Gym (it's easier to fake your own death). In conclusion, this gym was the extra "bump" I needed to take control of my fitness and make serious progress. Many of us, myself included, have had a myriad of gym memberships and home DVD's, but the equipment and atmosphere at Elite made the difference for me.

Cornelius Parkin is a true athlete who knows how to bring out the best in his members. This gym is as hardcore as you want it to be... if you are a beginner or an elite athlete you can find what you need at this gym. I have taken my personal training clients there often and I work out there myself when in the area. I highly recommend it to anyone who is serious about learning to take their bodies to the next level. Friendly, clean, accessible and motivating; give Elite Fitness a try before you go to any big national chain gyms.
