Paragon is an amazing place to go to support your fitness journey! I had been strength training for about a year before starting at Paragon and they were able to seamlessly transition me into their workouts. The coaches are so supportive and help create a wonderful community. I made some lovely friends along the way!

I am six months in and love this place. It is unlike any other gym you will experience - and that is not even hyperbole.Paragon's small-group model makes what might otherwise feel like an expensive, unreachable private training experience literally accessible. Moreover, in an age when countless apps and AI tools can generate highly tailored fitness plans and goals, the personal trainer and coach are the differentiators -- the coaches at Paragon's coaches make that difference so clear.It’s one thing for coaches to have deep expertise; it’s another for them to notice the small things and proactively share that expertise in ways that show they genuinely care. That is what makes the experience invaluable. I might be doing a kettlebell squat, merrily moving along, only for Coach Sarah to point out that I’m subtly dipping and leaning into my right hip. Those kinds of micro-adjustments have an outsize impact, both physically (form matters!!!) and mentally, because they help me better understand how my body moves. There are countless examples like this, where the coaches’ trained eyes catch something I never would have noticed on my own.Also regarding my body, it has also been unbelievable to work with Gabby, who has a pre- and postnatal coaching certification. She has been incredibly helpful in taking initiative and proactively tailoring exercises to where I am in my post-partum recovery. Meanwhile Coach Sarah keeps such a close eye on me and is constantly checking in and gently pushing me as I realize 'oh yea I can lift more.' They're awesome.And while I work *mostly* with Sarah and Gabby, all of the coaches are easy to work with, approachable, and comfortable to talk to. To me, this is the real bonus of the gym: in addition to their expansive knowledge, they cultivate a culture that is genuinely kind, funny, flexible (and understanding of real life:there have been at least two occasions when they were flexible with the cancellation policy after unexpected situations arose with the early-referenced baby). That kind of understanding matters. They're just real people. And you see all sorts of real people going to this gym.(Shout out to owner Adam for building such a staff/culture!)Worth every penny.

Paragon has been incredible. The semi-private training environment strikes the perfect balance between personalized coaching and a motivating group atmosphere. The trainers are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in helping you build strength and confidence. Thanks to Paragon, I’ve developed a consistent routine and feel much stronger and healthier!

The coaches dedication to their craft is unmatched. I have 100% trust and faith in their workouts and if I have any concerns about what we are doing or how l'm physically feeling, I feel comfortable getting clarification to do the exercises better. Love it here!

Great gym with small group training sessions and an amazing team of trainers. I love working out at Paragon Fitness—the atmosphere is supportive and motivating. I often work with Luke and Adam, and both are always encouraging, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me improve. Training here has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my overall health and fitness routine. I’ve gained a significant amount of muscle and confidence, and I feel stronger every week. Highly recommend Paragon Fitness to anyone looking for effective training and a great community.

Paragon is incredible! It was recommended by a friend and within my first session, I knew it would be something I’d continue with. After years of having kids, it made me feel strong, capable, and most importantly, like myself again! The environment a coaches are encouraging, fun, and such a big part of my life. I’m very thankful for the experiences, friends, and coaches there that have consistently made me feel welcome and capable of anything!

2025-12-18T20:11:37.851Z

Paragon is the best! I had never felt comfortable in a gym, nor had I kept up with consistent workouts until finding Paragon. The coaches are kind and easygoing, while still making sure to challenge me so I can reach my goals. Coach Caleb and Christie are wonderful and have helped me so much to gain strength and mobility in a way that feels really sustainable. The great community and positive culture of the gym also make the workouts feel fun! I try to recommend Paragon to everyone.

I found Paragon in a Google search looking for local gyms with trainers. I signed up for their 2 week trial and I knew I had found the right gym for me. The trainers are knowledgeable and accommodating to every fitness level. I love the variety of workouts and training blocks. I enjoy going to the gym every Monday and Wednesday morning to train with my regular crew. It is a fun, no judgement gym and you will be gain much more than strength.

My experience at Paragon has been fantastic! For the first time, I am really enjoying strength training. The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, and the overall community is very positive. I look forward to training every week. I highly recommend Paragon!

Paragon is absolutely fabulous! Every single person is welcoming and inclusive, truly making this a place where everyone feels supported, no matter their fitness level. The coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in helping each person reach their goals. They create a positive, motivating environment that makes you want to show up and give your best every day. If you’re looking for a gym where you feel seen, supported, and empowered, this is it.

I’ve been going to Paragon for the past several months to work on knee pain I’ve struggled with for years. My coach, Christie takes the time to listen to my needs, making sure my workouts support healing rather than add strain. Each time I come in, all of the coaches take their time to adjust workouts around what I can do. The programming is really thoughtful and each week I’ve been able to increase weight while actually reducing my pain.The whole team is knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely cares about helping people reach their goals. On top of that, the community is so welcoming, it makes it easy to stay consistent because I truly enjoy coming in and seeing everyone that attends this gym. I could not be more grateful for the team here at Paragon!

As someone new to weight training, Paragon has been the perfect fit. I’m challenged every session and supported by all the coaches. Each week I get stronger and feel great overall. It’s been a welcome addition to my fitness routine. Thanks Paragon!

Paragon is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been a member of! From day 1, I’ve felt very comfortable and supported by their amazing coaching staff. The workouts are challenging and the coaches do an exceptional job of making sure to tailor each workout to each individual participant. Over the past year since joining Paragon, I’ve made tremendous gains in strength which has really boosted my confidence.. all thanks to the support of the Paragon team! On top of the workouts, I love being a part of this community. Can’t recommend this place highly enough!

Training at Paragon has been a game-changer. It's not just a gym, it's a supportive community with exceptional trainers who help you crush your goals.

I have been to many Cleveland gyms and fitness classes but nothing compares to Paragon. I love the semi private format as it's just me and the weight but I feel supported by those in the class. I appreciate that the focus is on listening and embracing your body while doing proper technique which is often absent at other fitness studios. Paragon has created such a welcoming, inclusive environment. They even helped me reach my goals of skiing more advanced terrain just a few months into my training. They are currently helping me prepare to cycle 100 miles with Velosano this fall. I can't say enough good things about Paragon!

I started strength training at Paragon about six months ago and have been going consistently three times a week ever since. I can’t say enough good things about the coaches- shout out to Adam who’s been helping me train for an Olympic triathlon this summer.When I started, I had very little experience with lifting, but now it’s something I really enjoy and can’t imagine going without. The coaches aresupportive, knowledgeable, and always attentive to my goals. They modify workouts when needed for old injuries or soreness while still pushing me to improve—and somehow make 6 a.m. workouts fun.Adam has gone above and beyond, helping me build strength and endurance, including a personalized cardio assessment to support my triathlon training.Paragon is a fantastic environment with great people. I’d highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their fitness or athletic performance
