| - I was looking to replace my mismatched dumbbell collection. Traditional stores were very expensive. I tried to order the colorful neoprene from a large company, but when they arrived, the dumbbells themselves were different sizes. Like 1 8 lb was different than the other 8 lb. Plus, I hated all the colors and thought they would look awful out on a rack.
I took that as a sign to just get the weights I wanted.
I thought I was going to have to drive to Columbus to go to an exercise equipment manufacturer to get reasonably priced set of dumbbells, however they weren't open on Sundays.
My bf stumbled upon G&G Fitness and found that they had several locations. He contacted one and asked them about their dumbbells and the employee was incredibly friendly and helpful. She looked up their inventory and let us know that Monroeville had everything I wanted.
On Sunday, I made the 1 hourish drive to Monroeville instead of the 3 hourish drive to Cleveland. I arrived and the gentleman working was helpful, friendly and welcoming.
He collected the 3s, 5s, 8s, 10s, 12s and 15s I wanted. He even offered to help me load them in my car.
Their dumbbells were a little more expensive than the place in Columbus, but I figure saving 4+ hours of drive time was worth it.
This store is a hidden gem and I'm so happy to have found it.
They had a large collection of exercise equipment, machines and weights. I never felt judged because of being a girl and the customer service could not have been any better.
Next time I need something exercise related, I'll check G&G before considering a trip across state borders.
