About Us
Same Gym. New Name.
Starting as Great Lakes Gym, then as Gold’s Gym, and now as The Fitness Company, our goal has remained the same since 1982: to be a positive impact on every person who walks through our doors and to help lead them to a lifetime of fitness.
Our culture is important to us: we strive to ensure the facilities are kept clean, weights are re-racked and accessible, and machines are frequently maintained. We also monitor the space to ensure that you feel safe and accommodated throughout your workout.
We are well known for our EDGE Team Training center, body transformation programming, service to members, and for always improving on our original concept—to be a lifelong asset to members, employees, and the community.

Let Our History Guide You
The story of The Fitness Company began in 1982 when Todd Levine founded Great Lakes Gym Inc. in Rochester. With its 4000 square feet of space and state-of-the-art west coast equipment, it quickly became a pioneer in the city’s fitness scene. Throughout the years, Great Lakes Gym evolved into Gold’s Gym and went through various locations, ultimately settling in Webster in 2006 and Fairport in 2014.
Today, the Fitness Company is proud to carry on the legacy of Great Lakes Gym. Our Webster and Fairport locations are known for their innovative approach to fitness. In 2008, Todd, along with his partners George and Brianne Schaffer, introduced the Art of Strength Kettlebell Club to Webster, blazing a trail in High Intensity Interval Training in Rochester. We were the first to incorporate kettlebells, battle ropes, suspension training, plyometrics, and bodyweight exercises in our large group “team training” format.
Every day, we strive to inspire, support, and lead our members to enjoy their time and discover a fitness lifestyle.
