I’ve trained at ASP for about a year now and I think you ‘d be hard pressed to find a better gym atmosphere in Cincinnati. When you walk in the door, you’ll be greeted by name by every staff member there. They’re always bringing in retro, novel equipment finds and take the time to ensure each member is introduced to how to operate it properly.
Powerlifting. Kickboxing. Strongman. Bodybuilding. Every highschool sport. They just do it all here and they do it very well. Absolute pros.
I can rely on any trainer there to provide sound advice, spot my lifts, or listen to me complain about how much I hate Bulgarian split squats. They even offer protein shakes and energy drinks!
Bene PT is onsite with the best physical therapist you’ll ever meet.
The actual world’s strongest powerlifters (ATWR holders) train here daily.
And at the end of it all, if you need a break… you can walk outside and enjoy the gymstead environment. Chickens happy to visit with you and a beautiful garden.

If you're wanting to turn your Dad Bod into a Rad Bod this is the place for you. This gym is filled with knowledge and a fun but serious atmosphere.

Nick Newport and the Team at ASP are the best I have ever worked with. I have had experiences with Olympic level exercise physiologists and the team at ASP are on par or even better. They work with your situation and push you to your goals in ways no other personal trainers could. They are the best of the best !!!

Lots of lifers at this gym and its easy to see why. Gym owner and staff are top caliber. They may look like knuckle dragging gorillas but they know a lot of big words and are incredibly welcoming. Owner and staff have/are compete as well so they are good at relating to athletes.
It's nice being able to show up and have someone tell you what to do. I have had a lot of injuries over the years and having someone check form, save me from my own ego, and force me to do the lifts I shy away from makes a huge difference.
Post surgery ASP was able to help me rally back. My wife also trains here. After she gave birth they were able to help her ease back into lifting.
It's a good crowd at the gym with a wide range of patrons.
Equipment and facilities are clean and orderly.
I have and will continue to recommend this gym to anyone.

This isn’t your average gym
TL:DR Final Thoughts:
This gym will transform your body, your relationship with exercise, and possibly your empathy towards poultry. Highly recommend for anyone tired of common gyms and looking for something more.
Trainer Knowledge: 5/5
First off, the trainers here know their stuff. I mean, we're talking encyclopedic-level knowledge of anatomy, mobility, nutrition. The owner Jensen knows the biomechanics of lifting in a way that made me wonder why he wasn’t teaching at a university (but he does that too).
Gym Chickens: 10/5
There are actual chickens here. Real, live, feathered, judgmental chickens. They roam freely around the outdoor workout area like tiny raptors. I find their constant disapproval deeply motivating.
Gym Garden: 6/5
This gym has a better garden than your neighbor Linda. Where they grow herbs and veggies (free for members) possibly grown by the souls of members who don’t survive the prowler sled.
Vibe: 5/5
The energy here is unmatched. It’s a mix of science, encouragement, chicken anarchy, and dirt-under-the-nails authenticity. No mirrors, no ego, just hard work and some supportive squawking in the background.

I almost didn’t want to write this because I don’t want the secret getting out, but ASP is an amazing place to train. They genuinely care about you, how you’re feeling, and your progress. You get real trainers here — not just someone who happens to lift a lot. They make you feel like part of the team, even if you’re not training for powerlifting or competitive sports (I’m 40 and just trying to stay strong). Since joining, I’ve built so much strength and muscle, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about this place.

As a middle aged athlete contending with some old injuries, I need a well educated personal trainer. ASP offers the most thorough and professional program I have ever found. In addition to the personalized attention I receive, watching them work with athletes of all ages is inspiring. The gym is clean with a variety of quality equipment. And the staff is friendly and welcoming to all.

I started weight training with Jensen a couple months ago and already feel lighter and stronger! Though I'm a very active and healthy 55+ mom of 3 I felt it was important to incorporate strength training back into my routine! I'm looking forward to seeing how much stronger I feel after a couple more months working with Jensen & the other ASP coaches!

I started going to ASP in 2017, and it’s been a major part of both my athletic and personal fitness journey. During my volleyball career, training here helped me get stronger, faster, and more confident on the court. Even though my volleyball days are behind me now, the gym continues to help me stay fit and motivated. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and qualified. They really understand how to personalize workouts for any goal or stage of life. And the people who run it are some of the best. They are welcoming, supportive, and genuinely passionate about what they do. ASP is really more than just a gym!!

I’ve been a member at ASP for a couple years now and none of the other gyms I’ve trained at compare to this place. Thanks to the team and our sessions I’ve seen constant progress and results in every aspect of my sport, and improvement in my overall life with my mobility, endurance and physique. This place is top notch, From the welcoming vibes of the atmosphere and staff, to cleanliness of the environment, ASP is ideal for anybody who wants to level up their game as an athlete or find a new place to go lift! I highly recommend you go in for your first session, you won’t regret it!

If you are looking for a place to train for athletics, strength sports, or general health in Cincinnati, there is no better option than ASP. High quality coaching, equipment, and athletes that work hard to earn the title of the best gym in the area.

Jensen and his team are not just people that “workout” they live it, specialize in it, research it, and have academic backgrounds in so many areas concerning the body. As a former Pro soccer player who used Jensen in my off season training and now my 14yo son trains here. I appreciate the intentionality, care, and specialized plans that focus on form, muscle growth, and dynamics associated to their sport. This is the place to be if you or your child want to be elite.

Great gym, great environment, & a perfect fit for everyone in all walks of life! The coaches here are extremely knowledgeable and personable, and will help you reach your goals. If you're lucky, you might even get a sick haircut from Austin around back 😎

Been here since 2019 and it’s the best gym I’ve ever been apart of. I came here to help improve my volleyball game and ASP training has helped me so much. I still come here as a college student and train because the atmosphere is great.

ASP is one of the most prestigious training facilities in the area. From sport specific coaching, strength training athletes, strongmen and powerlifter - the knowledge in this gym is incomparable. They have amazing equipment allowing athletes of all kinds to come together and train. 24-7 access, one on one coaching and group training - this is the place for your son/daughter who is a young athlete, an experienced powerlifter or someone who just wants to get healthier. The trainers and owner (Jensen) are the best! Very thankful for the ASP family!

This gym is top-notch for serious lifters and athletes. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and always willing to help, whether you’re just starting out or training at a high level. They’ve produced numerous Division 1 athletes, and have some of the strongest athletes in the world that train here. Clearly, they know what they’re doing when it comes to performance training.
The facility is well-equipped with plenty of free weights and specialty powerlifting bars—perfect for anyone focused on strength training. The environment is clean, focused, and comfortable, with air conditioning that actually works (a huge plus during intense sessions).
If you’re looking for a gym that takes training seriously and offers the tools and expertise to match, this is the place.

I’ve been a member of this gym for several months now, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The facility is always clean, well-organized, and equipped with everything you need.
What really sets this gym apart is the atmosphere. The staff are incredibly friendly, professional, and always willing to help, whether you’re asking about equipment or looking for training advice. There’s a great community vibe here, and everyone—from beginners to seasoned athletes—feels welcome.

I started training at ASP in 2017 as a high school field hockey player. When I walked into the gym for the first time almost 8 years ago, I never could have imagined how much confidence and strength I would have today. ASP is a one of a kind gym that can tailor to the needs of high school athletes, strength athletes, and individuals looking to improve their health and fitness. There’s a huge variety of equipment, a terrific staff, and even a garden with chickens. I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for a new gym to call home.

I have been a member of Academy for 6 years. Academy has been the best private gym I have ever trained at. And will continue train at. What makes Academy special is not their equipment. But the people. Jensen(owner) has built a gym to help support any member. Who wants improve their goals. Fellow coaches as Nick, Austin, and Maddie are the best coaches out there. I truly recommend this gym to anyone. No matter what your fitness levels are. Anyone is welcome at Academy.

I have been involved with ASP for 3.5 years. First, with my son through his soccer team, then with my daughter post gymnastics career, and now as an athlete myself for the last 4 months! This staff is knowledgeable, caring, adaptable, and they each have their own unique gifts to bring to the table. They collaborate to help each person that walks in their door, no matter what level of fitness they are at in their life. As a physical therapist, I truly appreciate their scientific, caring approach and the plethora of different equipment they have to adapt to whatever limitations needed to achieve your goals. 💯 recommend!! Get there and get moving!

I’ve been training at ASP since 2021 and the gym members and staff have become like another family to me. I’ve felt comfortable and safe every time I enter, and the 24/7 access to the facility at the price point is a steal. Jensen, the owner, has poured a lot of energy into the space and garden on the side. Not every gym can you train with the best equipment and leave with fresh produce!

I’ve been coming to ASP for roughly 5 years now. Prior to ASP, I had tried other sports performance gyms and hadn’t seen the results I was looking for, if any. Since I started here, I have performed the best I ever have in my sport, been in the best shape, and felt the best I have in my entire life. This is a true testament to the people at ASP, who make this gym a special place and push everyone to be the best version of themselves. Top notch all around from the programming to the facilities to the people!

I've been a member of this gym for over a year, and it has exceeded all my expectations. The facility is spotless and well-equipped, offering a wide range of equipment for all fitness levels. What truly sets this gym apart, though, is the exceptional staff. They are knowledgeable, approachable, and always willing to offer personalized guidance and support. Their dedication to helping members achieve their fitness goals is evident in every interaction. Highly recommend this gym for anyone looking for a top-notch fitness experience.
