"I am a member at Elite Fitness because it is simply the best fitness facility in the Lake Norman area. The equipment is top of the line and the gym has everything I need to help me meet my goals. While other gyms in the area aim to appeal to the masses, members are little more than numbers serving only to pad the bottom line. Elite is owner-operated and Darlene takes a keen interest in the well-being of her members. There's a lot to be said for that! Without a doubt, Elite Fitness is one of the best-kept secrets in our area."

I knew this gym was going to be different. Darlene’s passion for her gym means only one thing…her members come first and all the Elite Fitness team are there to give the best possible service they can. Training with Joe has allowed me to reach a fitness and strength level I never thought possible. Great facility and fantastic staff….that’s Elite Fitness!

“I have been working out at Elite Fitness since the early 1990's when I was in high school. Elite has always had the exact equipment I have needed without having to pay for all of the thrills I haven't needed. With a job that has required me to move many times, I have worked out at gyms across the country. Elite Fitness has always been my favorite gym because of its relaxed, yet motivational atmosphere. Everybody from power lifters to soccer moms feels welcome and comfortable at Elite Fitness.”

“Simply put, Elite Fitness can give to you as much as you are willing to give it. Whether you’re looking to increase muscle mass, tone up or build endurance, Elite could provide you a "one stop shop". With an incredible mix of NPC Bodybuilding & Strongman Federation competitors the knowledge and experiences alone of the members is second to none. Elite Fitness is a place where “the old school meets the new school”!”
