AbOUT UA Fit in Columbus, OH
We Built the Gym We Always Wanted
At UA Fit, you're joining a team of coaches and members who are passionate about helping you move better, get stronger, and feel your best every single day.
About Us
UA Fit is a coaching gym. Since 2017, we've helped people across Upper Arlington and Columbus get stronger, move better, and feel more confident, whether they're in their 20s, 70s or anywhere between! We meet you where you're at to get you where you want to be.
Our flagship program is Hybrid coaching: regular 1-on-1 sessions with your own personal trainer, plus group classes on your schedule. You pick the classes that fit your week, and your coach tailors each workout to your current abilities and goals, so every class moves you forward. Prefer fully private training? We offer 1-on-1 Personal Training too, and nutrition coaching is available to support either path.
Every group class uses three-tier programming, so everyone gets the same workout stimulus no matter their experience level. Classes stay intentionally small, so your coach knows your name, your goals, and how to adjust each movement for you. Our community doesn't stop at the door, either; members and coaches train together, celebrate together, and show up for each other outside the gym. Your circle defines your ceiling.

Our experienced coaches are here to guide, support, and push you toward your goals every time you walk through the door.

Quinn Allen
Coach
Quinn has been an avid fitness enthusiast since his early days of competative sport ranging all the way back to pee-wee football and soccer. Being a multi-sport athlete through his school days, Quinn was always spending several hours in the weight room, actually working out, since social media didn’t exist at the time.
After Collegiate-level lacrosse Quinn stumbled into his first group fitness box in 2010 and was hooked on the competitive nature, and community accountability to perform. He loved the new approach to fitness so much that he decided to follow the rabbit hole as deep as it would go by beginning to coach, and ultimately becoming a CrossFit L1 trainer in 2015. By 2017, with the support of an incredible community and coaching staff, Quinn opened Upper Arlington CrossFit, before de-affiliating from CrossFit in 2020 and branding as UA Fit.
Quinn has been invested in this community since day one and will continue to spread his positivity and passion through coaching. Quinn’s favorite part about coaching is getting the “light bulbs” to come on for folks having a tough time with movements. Sometimes it takes a lot of work to connect the dots on complex movements, but when a coach can help you find the way, it is a hand in hand breakthrough achievement that makes it all worth it.
Quinn also owns Zeno’s , Library Bar , and Vic Village Tavern.

Do I need any experience to join UA Fit?
Not at all. Most of our members started with little or no training experience. Every workout is scaled to your current fitness level, and our coaches will guide you through each movement so you can train safely and build confidence from day one.
What happens during my Free No Sweat Intro?
Your intro is a relaxed, no-pressure visit where you’ll tour the gym, meet a coach, and talk through your goals. We’ll learn where you are now and where you want to be, then recommend the program that fits you best.
What’s the difference between Hybrid Training, Personal Training, and group classes?
Group classes are coach-led 60-minute sessions with our community. Personal Training is fully 1-on-1 coaching scheduled around your life. Hybrid Training combines both, pairing personal sessions with group classes for the fastest path to your goals.
