I have trained for 9 years at Showtime. Nick has helped me overcome low back pain, recover from bilateral foot surgeries, and currently is working with me on hip and knee conditioning to help with pain in those areas.
My overall health and muscle mass has improved greatly! I highly recommend Showtime Strength and Conditioning no matter your age or physical condition. Move it or lose it!

The workouts are always challenging but manageable, and the small group size means I get personalized attention without the pressure of a big gym. The staff is super knowledgeable, encouraging, and always keeps things fresh. I’ve already noticed improvements in my strength, energy, and confidence. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a supportive, motivating environment to reach your fitness goals.

My daughter started strength training at the recommendation of her pitching coach and has fallen in love with working out. The trainers make the workouts challenging and fun. She has gained confidence and loves telling everyone about her new PR's for the week. I couldn't recommend this more.

Before starting showtime I was having knee pain doing the simplest tasks. After having 3 knee surgeries 10 years ago I thought it was catching up to me. However after starting at showtime and working with all of the amazing coaches in just 4 months that knee pain is completely gone. It is such a fun atmosphere with great people all around. I couldn’t recommend Showtime enough!

My 14 year old Daughter wanted to do some off season strength, speed, and agility training between Volleyball season and track season. The team at Showtime were great at building a relationship with her, getting to understand her personal goals, and catering a workout plan just for her. The 1:1 time she got during group lessons helped her build confidence using the equipment before heading into her High School Sports Programming. The team was excellent working around her Club Volleyball Schedule and it was easy to got in 2 workouts a week to help supplement her club practices. Overall my daughter is very pleased with the progress she made and you can really see her strength and speed improving on the court. She is excited to apply what she has learned during Track season and will definitely use showtime to fit in workouts between sport seasons.

My daughter started training with Nick & Joe May 2024. She absolutely loves strength training and pushing herself to reach new PR's. Her growth and strength has made a huge impact on all aspects of her softball journey and has helped condition and train her body to help avoid injury. This girl is a BEAST thanks to Showtime Strength & Performance.

Nick Showman’s Showtime Strength and Performance has been a high quality speed, strength and agility experience for my 13 year old softball pitcher. Nick starts by performing a detailed onboarding process collecting baseline data, strengths and weaknesses. The information is used to design a workout regimen specific to my daughter’s needs and goals. She earns weekly new personal records in various tasks feeling both stronger and successful. The addition of Showtime Performance has aided in increased pitching velocity, a powerful swing, stamina elevation; as well as, promoted increased mental and physical confidence. I highly recommend Nick Showman and staff (Joe) for their exceptional work with youth athletes empowering them to be their very best!

I’ve been a client with Showtime since the fall. The semi private training has been so effective for me over the past few months. Week to week I’ve gained confidence and built strength and muscle. Coach Nick Showman has planned my training around my unique goals and is constantly consulting with me to make sure I feel like we are on the right track making progress. I see myself as a client at Showtime for years to come and would highly recommend anyone considering joining to go ahead and join. The routine and the welcoming gym community will be a helpful addition for anyone looking to gain strength and confidence and build long term sustainable habits.

I can't recommend Nick Showman and his incredible team at Showtime Fitness enough! After my ACL surgery, I never thought I would get back to weight training at the level I was at before the injury. But Nick's knowledge and expertise helped me surpass my expectations. His personalized approach and deep understanding of both physical and mental recovery made all the difference. I made faster progress with Nick than I ever did with traditional physical therapy. If you're looking for a team that will help you achieve your fitness goals and support your entire recovery journey, Showtime Fitness is the place to go! Thank you, Nick and the team!

*If you ever run into Nick outside of the gym, his favorite restaurant is Moes Original BBQ, feel free to get him a gift card!!

I’ve been training with Nick and Showtime for about 8 months now and am so happy I made the jump to start working out with them. I started with 1:1 personal training 2 days/wk and now do small group personal training 3x/wk. I have seen great results, feel stronger, and they have brought my love for fitness back to life. Nick did a great job meeting me where I was skills-wise and has gradually worked me up to heavier and more difficult training. I feel confident in the gym now but also love that Nick and all his staff are always watching to ensure I maintain proper technique to avoid injury and maximize benefit. Cannot say enough good things about this gym!

After years of not exercising like I should my co-workers got me to go to Showtime. I'm not a gym guy or a weightlifter by any means but Nick and his group of trainers do an excellent job of working with you on an individual prescription and realistic goal setting. They hold you accountable and seem to care how the total person is doing. Nick and his trainers also work with all kinds of clients, from students to senior citizens.

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. 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!

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!

I had such a great time training this summer at showtime. I am the type of person that needs a scheduled routine in order to feel my best, and showtime was able to do that for me. I trained with the college athletes two days a week at 8am the entire summer. Though it was early, it helped me create a routine that I could manage with my busy schedule and overall enabled me to head back to school in shape and ready for the season!

My son has been in the Showtime program for 2 months. Since starting he’s added 5mph to his clubhead speed (approx 15 additional yards off the tee!) More importantly I’ve noticed a huge boost in his confidence and how he carries himself on and off the golf course. The value in the enhanced confidence is amazing to see as a parent, and high school golf coach. Can’t recommend highly enough. Nick and his staff are truly world class! Thank you!!!

Nick and his team at Showtime are amazing!! When I was in highschool I personally trained at Showtime for years. All of my training had me in shape and prepared for my college softball career. Now I have our youth Lakewood softball girls training here along with my 12u travel ball team. Nick is able to design a class that fits every age and ability. All of my athletes love their workouts and we have seen SO much improvement in their abilities!! I can’t thank Showtime enough for what they have provided to not only me and my girls but our community!

Nick and his staff are among the best in the business. After nearly 40 years as a professional coach, I've been impressed with their ... 1) dedication to each client's development ... 2) knowledge base of sound training principles ... and 3) effective application of age and developmental appropriate training methods.

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.

Showtime Strength and Performance has been a transformative experience for my 14-year-old daughter. The program not only enhanced her physical strength but, more importantly, it has significantly boosted her confidence.

My daughter has been going for a year now and the change in her is amazing. Initially she started going because she wanted to be stronger and faster and become a better athlete on the softball field. 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.

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. Nick did a full pre-evaluation to see where they were and what they knew. From there they worked with Nick on getting stronger, faster, and healthier. He made sure to work on improving their bodies to be able to handle the stress of rotation that baseball puts on them. I’m confident the boys will have great success this baseball season and most importantly stay healthy due to stronger muscles! Thanks Nick!

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.

My husband and I are both former college athletes, so one could say we've been around a gym or two and that we have high expectations when it comes to those who work with our own kids (13-boy) and (11-girl).
Nick & Emily have both shown us such dedication to our kids' whole-body growth, not just physical strength gains. Several times our kids have referenced Showtime Fitness and something Nick or Emily said to them, which resulted in confidence growth.
Now, as a school principal and a guidance counselor, my husband and I can honestly endorse Showtime Fitness as one of the few places parents can trust to send their kids. Physical and mental strength can both be gained in working with these fantastic people.

This place worked out great. The week prior to our son starting with Showtime Strength and Performance he injured his back at a high school Wrestling match. We consulted with the owner of Showtime, Nick Showman, and he recommended we meet with his wife Claire who is a Physical Therapist. Claire and Nick worked together in helping our son rehab through his injuries until he was 100%. This couldn't have worked out any better for our son who had a Physical Therapist and a Physical Trainer collaborating on his specific needs. Now our son attends Showtime in his off-season's to stay in peak shape to prepare for his college sports.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!.

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. During that time Nick has gone out of his way to help me work through injuries and come out stronger afterwards. Training here got me in the best shape I've ever been in, and gave me a better understanding of what works best for my goals and why. Wouldn't want to train anywhere else.

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. Showtime Strength and Performance is definitely a leader in youth and sport training as well as group and powerlifting training.

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. I’ve never felt stronger or faster and my performance on the field increased tremendously. Not to mention the atmosphere and leadership from the trainers are unmatchable. If you’re looking to take the next step and giving yourself the opportunity to stand out from others, Showtime is the place to be!!

I Met the owners of this business when I participated in a meet at this gym several years ago. Since then, I have stayed in contact and switched my training to this facility for the coaching and team environment they offer. On top of great coaching, they are able to offer a unique ability to assist with injury prevention or rehabilitation. I have taken full advantage of everything this facility has to offer. It is a gem in the area and in Ohio! Do yourself a favor and check it out!

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.

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. My wife and I started at Showtime, 15 months ago, with John Holloway as our adult Met-con trainer, "The Best". Joining Showtime was one of our best decisions we've ever made, we are in the best shape in years and feel so much healthier. The adult Met-Con group is also a great group, hard working and very caring people. It's fun, come join us.

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. Plenty of space to spread out and lots of specialty equipment to dial in to your specific needs. Also a super nice turf area for athletic training. I would definitely recommend giving Nick a call and checking this place out!!!

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.

Nick has continually produced and developed awesome athletes across all sports for as long as I have known him and then some. The gym itself is an awesome spot where all athletes feel welcome to train and grow. If I had children of my own, I would wholeheartedly trust Nick to train them here. There are few places that match the equipment + passion & knowledge for training combo that Showtime offers.
