Carter Fitness has, in effect, been my “go to” Health Insurance for 5+ years. Having trained with Jimmy Carter prior to launch of his practice, I quickly joined. I say “practice “ as it’s a very learned expertise that is applied to all his training. Regardless of gender, age, or sometimes specific (and varied) health conditions his clientele bring to Carter Fitness for exercise , strength training, or even training “around a condition “ (whether that be temporary or ongoing) —- one can be assured you’ll be set-up with a program tailored for you. I came into his gym (again, to me, a “practice”) under the watchful eye of a Doctor who had “regrouped” me after I unwittingly developed a back condition attributable to Rowing Crew for “too long on one side.” Jimmy learned my past and developed a program for me. All I’ve done every day since is progressively gotten better, stronger, and more agile — all without incurring further injury or regression on my back condition. In fact, I am not even sure I would describe myself as having a “bad back” anymore! That is 90% attributable to Carter Fitness pushing but not straining, driving without being overbearing. As I said, to me, it’s a “learned & applied” training practice. The Gym attracts old & young alike and all groups (regardless of age or gender segment) seem to excel and have FUN keeping in shape. I’ve witnessed many friendships originating from bonding during regular workouts.Truth told, when I begin my personal budgeting process ever year, Carter Fitness is one of my first mandatory line items—I suppose right after Food! I highly recommend anyone checking out Carter Fitness as a place to get in shape, maintain it, or stretch oneself to peak condition. Bill Minor ( Member Carter Fitness) More...

I cannot say enough about how great Carter Fitness is! After trying most gyms in Cincinnati, I’ve not found any that provide near the efficient results, welcoming environment, and personal investment from the trainers in my health and progress that Carter Fitness does. The owner, Jimmy, is amazing at what he does, taking the time to get to know every member and help them to achieve their unique goals. I love that the Fit classes are quick but extremely effective, yet tailored to every fitness level. The InBody system is fantastic to help track your progress and see how your muscle:fat ratio is improving. The Strength sessions are where I noticed an immediate and substantial change in the shape and tone of my body- would highly recommend to anyone! More...

I’ve been going to Carter for only a few short months now and was referred to this gym from a friend. I can only speak as a Fit AF member but it’s been totally awesome. This is a place where anyone can feel welcomed and encouraged. As someone who’s had memberships at a ton of different gyms, the vibe here is definitely different in a great way. You see the same friendly people and everyone’s working hard together. Nate is incredible as a trainer and really helps clients work toward their goals in an effective but super caring way. There’s the environment of accountability with trainers for sure. The thing I love the most about the HIIT methods here is that I don’t have to think about anything and can be in and out in a super efficient time and know that I had a great workout. Highly recommend! More...

I started coming to Carter Fitness when I was using class pass to checkout other gyms and studios in the area. I was already at another gym but felt like I had reached a fitness plateau. Once I went to one Fit AF class I was hooked. I love how they incorporate weights into the HITT class and every workout is different. I waited way too long to pull the trigger and start the lifting program in addition to the HITT classes. It’s been two months since becoming a member and doing both 3x a week. I can’t believe how much of a difference I can already see in my physical appearance but more importantly I feel so strong and confident. I can’t wait to see what I’ll be able to accomplish in another 6months! If you’re on the fence about joining, I highly recommend it. Everyone here is amazing. Not only the trainers but also the other clients here give it a “family feel.” More...

I could write a blog about all the great things at Carter FITNESS but I’ll try and keep it short! I’ve been a member of carter fitness for 3 months now and the facility, management and training are among the best I’ve experienced. I am currently enrolled in their group intense cardio training referred to as FitAF, living up to its name, and personal strength training where you have hands on training from experienced, credited trainers to include the owner himself. I think it speaks volumes when the owner himself has a hand in every aspect of what’s going on within his facility.I am a single mother of a teenage boy who works a full time job that requires much of my time. I balance motherhood and work, while also trying to squeeze in time to be healthy and active and actually enjoy working out! I choose to do my strength training in the morning and Carter offers a variety of accommodating times to work around everyone’s busy schedules. I’m able to workout, get back home to make breakfast and still drive my son to school everyday! I choose to do the FitAF classes in the evenings when my schedule is free. I would not be doing cardio like this without the great motivation behind the amazing group of men and women who are members and the coaches, Monica and Nate!!! They are encouraging and guide you and push you to keep going when you want to quit. I’m so happy I found this hidden gem (no pun intended)! ♀️ More...

I’ve been attending Carter Fitness for the last 4+ years. The team here is fantastic! I’ve participated in both the strength and cardio programs. The cardio classes (Fit AF) are quick and challenging but adaptable for all levels. The strength program is my favorite, I’ve seen great results and am never bored in class. Jimmy and his team recently worked with me through my entire pregnancy and helped me stay in shape up until the day I delivered, and now they are helping me recover post-partum. I highly recommend this facility and team! More...

I have been working out at Carter Fitness for 4 months. The trainers Jimmy and Nate are welcoming and very helpful, personable and genuinely want to see you succeed. The other people in the class I take are friendly and encouraging also. I love startingmy week at Carter and their 30 minute Cardio HIIT workouts are fantastic. I have brought friends with me that have also joined this gym. I've had a great experience for someone that has never worked out I jumped in and am doing great. Thanks so much Jimmy and Nate !!

This is the best gym in Cincinnati! Jimmy has really outdone himself with putting it together and has a wide variety of equipment available to use. He's very informative and truly knows his stuff. The FIT AF classes are the real deal. 30 minutes of high intensity interval training that kicks your butt and quickly puts you in good shape! There are also so many more options and exercises than Orange Theory can offer. AND Carter's monthly unlimited plan is half the price of OT. Your first class is always free so check it out if you're looking for a new gym! There are also personal, semi-private and group strength training classes. I've seen people working out on their own as well. Truly the best gym! I can't say enough good things about it. More...

I love Carter Fitness! Jimmy provides me with the best workouts I’ve ever had. They are appropriately hard, balanced, and adjusted when needed. I am in the best shape of my life as a mom of 2, even better than when I was a college athlete. I’ve lost about 10lbs of fat and continue to get stronger and leaner each week. The workouts I get with Jimmy are much better than what I was creating for myself and he pushes me beyond what I would do by myself. He and Layne also coached me through my nutrition planning I desperately needed and with that I started and have continued to lose weight. I am a better runner, cyclist, and overall stronger in all my activities I love to do! More...

Jimmy Carter has been a game changer for me. I was told that my broken collarbone and injured shoulder chronic pain were mine to live with from several ortho docs. With his help and some strength training, I'm pain free in this area for more than 6 months after more than 10 years of suffering. This has been a miracle for me.
