About Absolute Fitness in West Columbia, TX
Four clubs across Brazoria County, built by people who live here.
[ HOW IT STARTED ]
A 401k And A Hunch
David Felan: lifelong resident of Brazoria county that cashed out his 401k in 2014 to partner with a friend of his (Jason Phillips) on bringing fitness to small town communities who otherwise would likely need to travel many miles to maintain their fitness. Rural America needs gyms too.
“Absolute Fitness & Tanning is a full-service gym that was founded on the premise that West Columbia needed and deserved something local to maintain the fitness levels of area residents.”

[ OUR MISSION ]
Bring A Better Gym To The Hometown
Absolute Fitness 365 exists to bring quality, accessible fitness to the hometown communities that larger fitness brands often overlook.
We believe people shouldn't have to drive miles out of their community just to have access to a well-equipped, dependable gym.
Our mission is to build full-service fitness facilities in the rural and small-town communities we serve—giving local residents the equipment, convenience, accessibility, and supportive environment they need to make fitness part of everyday life.
We aren't trying to take the hometown out of the gym. We want to bring a better gym to the hometown.
Train local. Live stronger.
“We're a premier fitness and tanning business with a strong commitment towards personalized service and individual attention for those seeking to achieve a healthier lifestyle.”
[ FOUR CLUBS ]
One Club Became Four
01
West Columbia
3,500 sq ft
West Columbia is the one that got it all started at Absolute Fitness. The first location started at the end of 2014 and start of 2015.
02
Angleton
8,300 sq ft
Angleton was formed from a void in the community as far as fitness went. A place enough room to train with available childcare so a whole family can come together. No waiting on equipment or your spouse to get off work to watch the kids. This is our biggest facility to service the largest town we are available in.
03
Brazoria
4,800 sq ft
Brazoria happened after multiple requests to have a gym in that community by residents. After locating what we thought was a perfect building for the project we had the doors open several months after. This Location made its debut in Late Feb 2017.
04
Sweeny
6,000 sq ft
The Sweeny TX Location is the 4th Absolute Fitness Location. It Boasts 6000 Sq ft and has everything any elite gym would require and more.
