I dropped in while in the area for a powerlifting training session. Although it has its modern flavor! It maintains it old school vibe. Did not disappoint.

I have been working out with a personal trainer (Jack) here for a few months and am very happy with my choice of Colosseum gym and this trainer. The staff are all very friendly, most of the clientele seem to he "regulars", and there is great selection of kit and machines, all clean and well maintained.

It is not a place to "see and be seen", but a great place to focus on strength and fitness.

I use Colosseum for personal training. At my ageβ€”if you don’t use it, you lose itβ€”so this is my investment in staying healthy.

Before Colosseum, I was going to a great but tiny physical therapy practice. What surprised me about Colosseum was the sheer variety of equipment. Even after training twice a week for six months, I’m still discovering new machinesβ€”and new muscles. Having a trainer makes all the difference. Most of the machines have multiple adjustments: weight, seat height, position, etc. It’s easy to get it wrong without guidance.

I work with Brandon, and he’s excellent. He trains himself, so he knows how the body works. During our sessions, I check in with him constantlyβ€”if I’m feeling something off, or if the burn is showing up in the wrong spot, he can troubleshoot and adjust things on the fly. That kind of feedback loop is essential. Is the weight too light? Too heavy? Is the form off? Brandon’s on it.

I highly recommend Colosseum, and especially Brandon. He’s young, a little introverted, and not one to promote himselfβ€”but I will. He knows his stuff, and he’s just a solid, good guy.

The Colosseum is a true gym. This gym is for you if you want to stop talking about getting in better shape and just execute. If you want a serious gym that's serious about your development I promise your in the right place.

The personal training is old school. Josh Flemenbaum is my trainer and I actually look forward to my workouts. He ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries and is extremely reliable & punctual.

If you want to come to a gym where you don't feel judged and want to get into the best shape of your life come check Colosseum out.

The gym here is great if you're looking for getting a solid workout done. They have the facilities for power lifting, such as squat cages, deadlift platforms, and plenty of benches. They also have a good variety of machines like a pendulum squat, leg press, various rowing and pulldown machines, etc. They have chalk out for people to use, pretty clean locker-rooms/ bathrooms, and tubs of random attachments or accessories for people to openly use.

The people who go here are mostly nice and the people who work here as coaches or for the front desk are also really nice. Its a wide variety of people who come here, but they're all respectful of other's space.

Very well-maintained gym with all the equipment you'll ever need. The owner, Tim, was very friendly and helpful. If you're a serious lifter or athlete (or former, in my case) this is your dream gym. If you're a casual just looking to get or stay fit (like I am now), this is still a really great option. Basically: this is one of the best gyms out there.

I am doing senior personal training with Jeff a few days each week and he is amazing. He is very knowledgeable about physiology and is helping me to understand how to strengthen muscle groups and improve my balance, stamina and mobility. I highly recommend the Colosseum. The gym is very clean and well maintained and the people could not be nicer. Great place.

My wife and I have trained at Colosseum for close to 5 years now, and it's far and away our favorite gym out of all the "hard-core" gyms in the area.

There's a strong sense of community, a great selection of equipment, and plenty of space. It isn't cramped like some other newer, trendier gyms in Columbia.

The only complaint I have is that they don't have any combo racks or monolifts, but they do have a variety of bars and calibrated plates. Either way, it's an easy trade off to make for such a great environment to train in.

I absolutely love this gym. I am an all-around athlete, and do a decent amount of HIIT training/rounds with 2-3 movements. I found it difficult to find a gym where I could train like this, but Colosseum worked out. It is a serious gym and has something for everyone. If you are a powerlifter, Strong man/women, Bodybuilder, Athlete, love Kettle bells, Olympic lifter; HIIT etc. than this is a place for you.

Also, can’t leave out that the staff and trainers are top notch and the owner (Tim) is a fantastic guy! Check it out, you won’t regret it.

The gym has everything needed for serious lifting and basic cardio. It is definitely an old school, metal plate, no-frills kind of gym that is geared toward picking things up and putting them down.

I workout here on occasion with one of the powerlifting coaches/trainers, Josh. He is fantastic. My form has greatly improved in a short time and I am noticing such a difference in my lifts. I would come here as a regular if it wasn’t so far from home.

I read that other folks felt like there was a judgement zone here, but I do not get that at all. There is a good mix of beginner, intermediate, and more advanced fitness folks here.

Highly recommend for anyone looking to get in some good resistance training.

You will either understand this place or you won’t but you will know either way under their generous Groupon offerings. I love it since it is a real gym for bodybuilders and serious workouts, definitely not a spa nor do they have traditional classes. There are peak times but you can usually work out without a hassle. There are no tiered membership like some bs places nearby that make you feel like a 3rd class citizen.

4.5 stars.. Much bigger gym than I anticipated with lots of equipment and several cable towers. The power lifting/ cross fit side is also awesome with a second rack of dumbbells aside from the main gym floor. All the patrons work hard and I've never had anyone sit on their phone taking up space. Employees are friendly and the trainers seem motivated. Gym could use a good thorough clean in my opinion. Many pads are worn that need to be replaced, but for the cost of this place I understand the approach. I enjoy my time here every time I check in.

Hands down, the best gym I’ve ever trained at. People actually train here and they train hard. Unlike other gyms where most people just hang out or stair at their phones for hours, this place carries so many positive vibes that put you in the mood to push yourself. In addition, the personal trainers here are so unlike other trainers I’ve had before. These trainers actually practice what they preach. They can literally change not only your physique, but your entire life for the better. Nikki Johnston, and David Johnston, hands down the best trainers in town. Their diet coaching, physique and strength coaching is better than anything I’ve see before. If your looking for a gym where you can make real progress, this is it.

Great hardcore gym. It has great facilities for powerlifting, Olympic weight lifting, and bodybuilding. There are multiple squat racks, rubber/wood floors for deadlifts, and bumper plates. There are pictures on the wall of winners bodybuilding and powerlifting competitions. You will regularly see people lifting 400+pounds.

I met people who have never touched a barbell, but have placed in the top 3 in powerlifting meets after a year of training. Unlike the generic trainers you would find at a franchise gym, personal trainers here have real world experience. Even if you are morbidly obese and can't climb a flight of stairs without needing to catch your breath, they can turn you into a competitive lifter if you hire them and put in the time/work.

A good gym for the serious lifting enthusiast. On the positive there is plenty of equipment for almost any fitness level or type of competitor. All the equipment worked including the cardio machines. This place has produced a ton of power lifters and even more BB competitors. The pictures on the walls are better than any website portfolio. I'd say the 25$ cost for a week pass is money well spent.

On the downside, there are virtually no mirrors in the main gym and zero in the power lifting area for those wishing to concentrate on form. The equipment especially the dumb-bells show much use and are in need of maintenance. I had to hand tighten every one I picked up. (Not a single allen wrench in sight) Think safety here. Do you want an 85lb dumb-bell coming apart on you in the middle of a lift? The free-weight benches are almost all incline. No decline for free-weights and only one fixed flat bench by the dumb bells. The one flat/incline bench is a bottle-neck for those waiting to use it. On the upside there is no shortage of bench-press equipment.

Overall I enjoyed my workout. The staff (all but one) are attentive and friendly. The patrons are above average and I met plenty of fit-minded friendly folks. No lunks or gym-bunnies. I look forward to using Colosseum my next trip to Columbia.

Easily the best gym in the Columbia region for training--be it in a group, individually, or with trainers. Tim and his staff do an outstanding job of creating an awesome environment for making progress. This is not a spa or a fitness center. This is a gym. Be prepared to get dirty. Be prepared to sweat. Sign up here, go, and don't look back. Update: They have expanded into the spaces next door to them and are now better than ever with more equipment and space. Love it.

This gym is great for powerlifting, weightlifting, strongman, and bodybuilding. They have lots of specialty equipment and barbells that you won't find at other gyms. It can get crowded at times.

There are 4 deadlift platforms, some of which can double as a weightlifting platform. There are two power racks by EliteFTS, two more squat racks, and a few squat stands. Five flat benches, one incline bench, one decline bench. There are atlas stones, farmer's walk bars, axles, and kegs. There is much more equipment, but these are just a few items off the top of my head.

Huge facility with something for everybody. One of the few facilities with sections dedicated to Strongman and Olympic Weightlifting in the country.

Absolutely Boss Gym!!! If you are serious about your training you must visit Colosseum. There is everything you need to become a champion or just look and feel better. The owner has an awesome personality, equipment is clean and tons of space to have fun. From Atlas Stones to Stepmills this gym has what you need.

This is a gym for people who are serious about powerlifting and bodybuilding. The employees are great and the trainers are very knowledgeable and approachable. Tim, the owner, is a great guy and runs the best gym in Maryland.

Nice place, lots of space, lots of equipment, and nice staff. Don't expect a planet fitness or lifetime fitness vibe, there will be ego lifting, chalk, and tight shirts. It's a down to earth honest gym with a gritty feel. The equipment is maintained but just barely in some cases, torn padding, frayed cables on the cable pulls, bent pins on the squat cages. They also offer $10 day passes which is great if you're just passing through.

My favorite gym in Columbia to get away from it all and really focus on my workout - the staff are friendly, the gym is really chill, and solid lifting/cardio equipment. There's also an area for stretching/PT/Medballs/Ab work. Nice locker area too!

I only wish there was a gym like this where I live. I love this place, every time I go to visit my boyfriends family this is the place that keep my fitness routine on point. The visrety of equipment, cleanliness and friendly staff is perfect. Oh and the members are just as friendly too.

This gym is legit as hell. Lots of assisted weight lifting equipment, but also a room in the back full of squat racks, bar bells and weights. Compared to the Columbia gyms which are overpriced and full of superfluous add-ons, having somewhere to just run on a treadmill and lift some weights is excellent. Price is pretty cheap too. When I mentioned to the owner I was moving out of Columbia to go to UMBC he offered me a massive discount. I don't know if that's a policy or just a deal he cut with me but either way, that was really cool of him. I used the Columbia gyms for a while but I honestly like this one way better. I do miss the racquetball courts though.

If you are serious about making a change then this is the gym for you. If you just want to tell people you are making a "change" then go to Planet Fitness

I love Colosseum! After wasting time at Planet Fitness and similar gyms I've finally found a gym full of motivation. This place is the real deal! I don't think I could ever go back to a commercial gym again. Colosseum has everything you need and even at it's peak hours there's never a wait for machines or equipment. I'm two months into my groupon intro deal and I'll be joining for life once it's up!

Fantastic gym for anyone looking for a real place to workout. Plenty of power racks, oly platforms, bumpers, buckets of chalk, atlas stones, tractor tires, sleds, cardio equipment. Pressure free place to workout. Hours are pretty good, staff is widely available. Good intro deal on groupon right now.
