From the reviews
Life-Changing Experience at FXB Columbus! Joining Farrell’s Extreme Bodyshaping of Columbus has completely changed the way I think about my fitness and health. From day one, I felt supported, motivated, and part of a community that truly wants to see you succeed.
More than a gym, FXB is an experience. This is not your typical gym where you go to do your own thing and maybe someone will talk to you and guide you, or where instructors already have an established class and you have to figure out your own way to get to where everybody is in the class.
Farrell’s has quickly become my second home. I moved to Columbus from Texas about a year ago not knowing barely anybody and I was searching for a place to meet people and hopefully find an outlet for my health and fitness. I found that and so much more within Farrell’s Columbus.
I'm on week 9 of my 10 week challenge, and I had decided by week 2 that I would be continuing classes indefinitely. I came in with nearly no experience beyond highschool gym class and I feel confident and comfortable in my skin at every moment of the process. (Outside of the obvious body exertion.
New to kickboxing? Start at Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - FXB Columbus
Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - FXB Columbus comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - FXB Columbus
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
