This gym is truly one of a kind. From the moment you walk in, you feel seen, supported, and cared for—not just as a client, but as a person. What I love most is their approach: it’s not just about working out, but about building mobility, gaining strength, and growing confidence every single day.
After a shoulder injury, I was afraid to move it again. Amber guided me with patience and encouragement, helping me overcome that fear and reminding me that movement is the key to healing and strength. Beyond the workouts, this place has made a huge difference for my mental health. It’s a safe, welcoming, and engaging space where everyone knows your name and genuinely cares. It feels like a community, not just a gym. Plus, I love that they offer opportunities like yoga to complement the training.
I couldn’t recommend this gym more—it’s supportive, empowering, and has truly helped me find myself again.

Rise is truly awesome—it’s not a one-size-fits-all kind of place. The trainers take the time to work with you individually, making sure your form is correct and that your workouts prioritize function and mobility. Whether you're just starting out or pushing your limits, they meet you where you are and help you grow safely and effectively.

I’ve been going to Rise for about a year now and it’s been an amazing experience! I love having the option of attending classes at different times. The coaches truly care and offer encouragement and guidance throughout every workout. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is wanting to better themselves and their workouts

I have been going to this gym for a year and a half and it has changed my life. They focus on health as a lifestyle, correct form for injury prevention and long term goals. It's an amazing community, starting with the knowledgeable coaches. The classmates are positive and cheer you on, it really feels like a gym family.

I am a senior woman who has been strength training at Rise Fitness since 2024. Amber has been leading my fitness journey since the beginning. She is everything anyone would want in a personal trainer.
Our senior class started slower then the other strength classes until we showed improvement and personal growth. She knows our strengths and limitations and assists with personalized adaptations.
In one year I have grown stronger than I thought I ever had the power to do.
Thank you Amber

I have attended workouts in this building for several years. It is now called “Rise Fitness” and they have risen to the job of totally making transformations happen! Their trainers really care about you and focus on your needs. If you are a Sr like myself consider the Sr steps to fitness class. It keeps us moving and motivated. My husband also comes to Rise for stretching and mobility work. We both feel great and move with ease! Thank you to the owners at Rise for giving us the best trainers to keep us moving!

Rise gym is AMAZING! The gym itself is always clean, the trainers are phenomenal, and the gym culture is so positive. When you walk into the gym you are met with positivity, kindness, and accountability. Amber is so good at what she does. Her workouts are effective, well thought out, and informative. Since my time at this gym I have not only lost weight, but have learned about healthy lifestyle changes and about the “why” of doing certain exercises and how to do them safely.

I went to Fortitude Fitness given the close proximity to my house, and the trial they offered. I fell in love with the staff and atmosphere. They significantly helped me get back on track with my exercise and motivated me as well. They have great hours including early morning hours, and the classes are on the smaller side which allows a lot of 1:1 with the trainer to ensure proper technique to avoid injury and optimize the workout. I signed up for a membership and will continue to stay a member!

I appreciate everything the team did for me. I really felt that going to Fortitude’s classes helped get me in the right mindset to keep pushing forward. Special shout out to Turbo for always reminding me how to do the exercises because I would forget by the time I got to the third or fourth station. LOL And though I only had one class with Amber, I really appreciate her taking the time to make sure that the form was corrected and I was getting the most out of the exercise even if it made the exercise feel harder to do.
Unfortunately I’ve had to move away, but had I not, I know I would have stated for a long time.Again, thank you for all you did. My journey started with you.
For anyone wondering if they should check Fortitude Fitness out…Absolutely!! It truly does not matter your current weight or age. There are people that are fit and there are people like me just getting into the groove with a long way to go. Its all about doing your best and you will see that even after a week your best as significantly improved. Everyone that is part of this gym is encouraging and wants you to know it’s ok if you struggle…thats the point! So you can push yourself and get better. The money you spend is less than some personal trainers or gyms. It may not be $15 bucks but it’s worth every penny for the sheer number of classes you get, the amazing team always helping you, and the encouraging people in the trenches by your side. No day is the same so you target all different muscle sets and learn so many new things. Contact them today to go see a class in action and make your decision!

Coach Mike and the rest of the Fortitude Fitness gang has helped me tremendously. They helped me get unstuck. I was feeling discouraged and not sure where to start but after a
Having a consultation call I felt joining was the right move. The workout classes are tough but doeable. Small group is one of my favorites, it allows me to go at my own speed but still acheive the results im looking for. Mike and the other trainers are truly supportive and meet you where you're at. Also having the support of my gym friends is amazing, it turns something that feels like a chore into something more fun. We root each other on. I know this is a life long process but I'm glad I choose the right gym to help me in my journey.

I have worked out for most of my adult life, lots of CrossFit etc & at 43 I was ready for a little bit of a change. I Frequent the 5 AM class and it’s probably the best and most energetic class I’ve ever been to. I push myself with the workouts (which often have Cross-fit style movements) yet all movements and be modified to any fitness level. I love the variety no two workouts are the same. It’s a great community feel, too! Highly recommend!!

Decided to increase my daily activity. Searched multiple places and decided on Fortitude Fitness. They had a great boot camp starter package that I was awesome. I was able to pick my own workout schedule. Once I got done with the boot camp I decided to do the small group workout. They limit the number of people that workout, so you get personal attention during your workout. They promote a fitness family and I get all kinds of support for the staff and members. I have made some good friendships and plan to continue to lead a healthy and happy life. Thank you to Fortitude Fitness for helping me get started on the right path.

Started there in Sept. Between the positive atmosphere and challenging workouts, dropped 25 lbs. In addition, the availability of the staff and the technological addition of the Fit3D device keeps your goals realistic and moving forward. I believe that being at Fortitude allowed me to go through Covid with minimal symptoms. I contracted the virus and was back at work within 10 days. Highly recommended to better your health and life.

Fortitude Fitness is more than a gym, it’s a community that is filled with people dedicated to helping you reach your goals. Both the personal training and boot camps are second to none in DeKalb county. I’ve been regularly attending Fortitude for nearly five months and have lost pounds, inches, and body fat. I’ve increased my lean muscle. I’m stronger and more confident. This fitness center is welcoming to people of all ages and sizes. An added bonus is that Fortitude Fitness has state-of-the art equipment, including a 3D Fit Scanner, yet is still affordable and a great value. The owner, Mike Davis, really cares about his clients and I’d highly recommend you make an appointment to check it out. Hope to see you there!

I have been going to this gym for almost 4 years and have loved it! I’m a college student so when I’m able to participate in a challenge I’m up for it! I use this as my platform for a gym, this way I’m obligated to go to these classes instead of having a gym membership and not using it! You would not be disappointed with what you get from working out here, not only will you love your results you gain a sense of community and having others there to give you the motivation you need! Thank you to the owner Michael for making this a great place to workout and a great outlet for me to use to ease my stresses and anxiety but also maintains a workout schedule!

I have been going to Fortitude for about 18 months and it’s helped me get in shape enabling me to have an active lifestyle. It’s also helped me keep the weight off and and generally feel good. The work outs are always different so you never get bored in a routine. Plus you are in and out in under an hour. What more can you ask for. I highly recommend Fortitude.
On Covid. They ran live online workouts over Zoom when we were on complete lock down which I really appreciate. Then We did outdoor workouts as soon as it was allowed. We’re back in doors and I feel totally safe with good separation and the staff is conscientious about following good health practices.
Give em a try.

This gym is something else entirely in the best way! I am someone who does not love going to traditional gyms because I feel like I can never figure out what to do and I always feel super awkward. The group classes, super helpful instructors, and feeling of community at Fortitude have made all of that a non-issue. The workouts are always different and challenging, and I always leave knowing I got a great workout. The owner, staff, and members are very welcoming and supportive and really seem to care.

A positive place filled with positive, supportive people! Fortitude has become one of the favorite parts of my day. The workouts are challenging and fun and the trainers are super helpful in accommodating any physical limitations you may have. You are never pressured to buy ANYTHING. All shapes and sizes and abilities are made to feel welcome. The owner has done a phenomenal job in providing a clean and safe environment by strictly following all of the Covid guidelines. My temperature is taken, my hands are sanitized, and my shoes are sanitized every morning the minute I step in the door. I have all my own sanitized equipment in my space all set up for me. They are so thorough! I have been attending this gym for two years and it has truly become a family to me. The community feel at Fortitude is one of its biggest assets. I can’t recommend this gym enough!

I walked into the gym this morning saying 2 things: 1. "Weighted plank walks are worse than burpees and 2. Coming here is like coming to a party with so many people I really like minus the wine." I left thinking, nah its better than a party, its more like going for coffee with friends (ya know all the good conversation, laughs, etc.). I am so grateful for the genuine people at this gym.

Sure, there are other facilities with fancy machines and the appearances of a higher quality experience. But don't let that fool you.
