Previously I was doing workouts on my own and CrossFit, however always ended up being injured. We worked on form, lots of variety in our workouts (eg Indian clubs, kettlebells, etc), and progression. It's never static. Despite not dying/injured after every workout, I've become stronger and more fit in every aspect of my body. PT should push you in just the right way not to overdo it but to condition and strengthen you! I've been doing personal training sessions and it's been a game changer for me. Very affordable. Plus weekends I do a couples workout with my partner as a bonding experience. They offer small classes as well in person and online. Addicted to their Hyrox and kettlebell classes, currently, and breaking through my plateaus! My shoulder pain I've had for 2 years is completely gone. Love it here at FuncFit!! Huge plus is a well stocked snack, fit drinks, and even prepped food by Paula in the fridge AND fully stocked shower.

I have been training with Mariam for over two years, which has been the best health and fitness…read moredecision I've ever made. Mariam has crafted workout routines that were tailored to my ability and pushed me to reach my initial fitness goals and milestones. With each reached milestone, Mariam has assisted me with the development of new fitness goals. I train with Mariam once a week and each session contains workout routines that are both fun and challenging. Mariam also provides me with weekly "homework" workouts.  What I appreciate about Mariam as a trainer is that she pays attention to detail. She ensures that my form and technique is correct, provides advice on ways to improve nutrition, and is passionate and dedicated to her clients' fitness and health journey. Mariam is a trainer and fitness expert in every sense of the word! Since training with Mariam, my gains have been visible. My stamina has improved, my core strength has gotten better, and my strength has increased.

I don't know why people complain about how "maze"-like the place is. Kinda ironic that these…read moreGYM-goers don't like stairs and walking hallways and it is not like you actually get lost or something. I have been a member almost a year now and I come here pretty much everyday, never had an actual issue. If there is an AC issue, or water temperature at the pool, "things breaking" can happen at almost every business, they are immediately taken care of. Awesome crew, on point cleanliness, actively renovating older spots,bathrooms, lockerrooms, etc - i have personally witnessed all of these in the past year. As for parking, of course, in the middle of McLean, at peak hours any business is going to have limited parking. This is common sense. Besides the peak hours, there is always space to park. One thing I would suggest tho, is to open up the pool registration hours to earlier hours as well, like 5am when the gym opens. I cant register for sooner than 7:15. Other then that, keep up the good work!

This place had such high reviews, I was excited to join the gym…read more 1. Front desk: very nice people, professional, easy to talk with and helpful. 2. However, the facility itself was in dire need of renovation. - pool: covered outdoor pool that works as indoor pool during colder months, but the condensation is much, you can't see anything. (See pic) - it is like a maze: hard to navigate easily and it reminds you of your public school set up - group classes itself were nice, but the AC AND the fans on the ceiling don't work, so imagine how hot it gets.. like 77 on my group class day. It was so uncomfortable. - if you need tennis or other courts: this is your best bet! They have so many tennis and other sport courts. So choose this location if you like tennis, squash etc. not a good fit for those who just wanna workout in group classes or swim in comfort. $90 a month plus $100 or so for initiation fee. 3. Indoor cafe available 4. Parking is a nightmare. Such a small lot for the number of people it serves. Those who live in McLean should just walk there. Then the walk itself will your workout!

I cannot speak highly enough of Elliot, Kevin, Ari and the entire staff at TFN. I joined the studio…read morea few months ago and have been impressed by several points: 1) The space: At first, I was taken aback that this is not a full gym, but rather a modestly sized studio. What it lacks in comparison to a larger gym, it makes up for both in focus (e.g, squats, bench press, deadlifts) and expertise (e.g., squat shoes, professional grade equipment). 2) The atmosphere: Upon arrival at the studio, I am reminded of the TV show "Cheers", where one is greeted with warm hello's and welcomes. Everybody knows your name. Also noteworthy - the other guests at the studio are of all ages and capabilities. I recall a moment where everyone stopped their own routines to cheer on a 60 year old woman as she hit her personal best in a deadlift. I had a cheering section as I struggled with a push-up challenge. It is a warm, inclusive and supportive environment. 3) The expertise: Kevin and the team have a methodical, evidence based approach to building strength and technique. He, along with Elliot, Erik and others, have helped me see the finer points of how to lift safely. Rather than piling on the plates, they make me earn the weight with good technique. We progressed through body weight and kettle bells, onto dumbbells and then Olympic bars, only advancing once I demonstrated proficiency with the technique. In addition, I engaged Ari to help me reflect on my nutrition goals and how to integrate my diet with my weight lifting. All of the staff are available online, which helps when I'm traveling. I would encourage anyone to visit TFN and take a few sessions. They effectively blend professionalism, expertise, and warmth; I am excited about my progress in a short period of time and hope you will experience the same.

Mike really knows his stuff and has been able to tailor programming to my needs very well. No cookie cutter programming here!

Highly recommend for any experience level!

I was impressed at the initial consulting, during which Robert explained to me that I was eating and exercising wrong!!! I trained with his wife, Atlantris, since then twice a week, who also gave me exercise and nutrition plans for home. She is tough and caring, just like how you want your trainer to be. I lost 13 lbs, went from size 8 to 4, and feel so much better. I am also stronger now and my endurance has improved considerably. Atlantris has also helped me with my diastasis recti and set me up with a ton of take home exercises. She has young children herself and understands special circumstances during post maternity. I recommend Atlantris to any woman that is having a hard time with weight loss, especially after a baby. The location is a no frills type of place. Just a few super skilled trainers and simple equipment to get you sweat a ton and feel your best. Don't be intimidated (like I was) because the sessions are tailored to your skill level. Personal training is a luxury but it is so worthwhile. Even if it is for a short time, you'll learn so much that I highly recommend anybody who wants a real change to try it out.

My fiancé and I started working with Fitness Stop in late May 2020, with both trainers Rob…read moreArmstrong and Rob Wright. We were looking for trainers who could help us get into shape, lose weight and look forward to exercising. Both Robs were very interested in learning about our goals and how they could help us achieve them. In the beginning, I think it's fair to say we were both out of shape. We've now been working out with the Robs for almost three months and are in so much better shape than when we started. I've lost an additional seven pounds from when we started. In addition to working out two times per week, we have been getting "homework" each week to help us stay in shape in between sessions. We have steadily increased the number of miles we run per week and are now at 20 miles per week, something neither of us could have imagined we'd be doing when we started. We now do ab workouts twice and day, regularly stretch and also do other daily exercises, such as 100 pushups or jump squats. During training sessions, Rob Armstrong keeps the conversation flowing and makes the time go by quickly. Rob Wright is a bit more structured in his workouts but is no less fun to be around. Both are encouraging and provide guidance on working out and proper technique. We'd highly recommend working with Fitness Stop if you want to get into better shape and a better exercise routine. We're going to continue working out with the Robs after our first three-month contract term runs out. They're great guys and have helped us achieve our goals!

1 Star -- Extremely Disappointed After 6+ Years as a Loyal Client…read more I have been a client at Orangetheory Idylwood since they opened in 2020. I was a founding member and have supported this studio for more than six years. I have worked out here through two pregnancies, continued my membership through the years, and referred at least half a dozen friends who went on to purchase memberships and become regular Orangetheory clients themselves. After all of that loyalty, I am incredibly disappointed by how I have been treated. My recent experience with management has made it very clear that there is no customer service and, apparently, no loyalty toward long-term members. I sent multiple emails asking about the status of my membership because I was unsure when my freeze would end and when my membership would become active again. I received no response. I also tried calling, and my calls were not answered or returned. Meanwhile, my membership had apparently been reactivated and I was charged for three months without realizing that my membership had become active again. Had someone simply responded to any of the multiple emails I sent, this entire situation could have been avoided. What is especially frustrating is that I have been a loyal customer since DAY ONE. I have supported this studio for six years and personally referred numerous people who became paying members. Yet when I needed basic communication and customer service, I couldn't even get someone to respond. And unfortunately, this doesn't feel like an isolated issue. There is very little sense of appreciation for long-term clients. Coaches don't seem to know your name, management is difficult to reach, emails go unanswered, phone calls aren't returned, and there is no feeling that the people who have supported this studio for years are valued. Businesses absolutely have the right to enforce their policies, and I understand that I should have been more aware of the freeze terms myself. But that does not excuse six years of loyalty being met with virtually zero communication when I repeatedly tried to get clarification. Good customer service means actually communicating with your customers -- especially when a simple response could have prevented a significant billing issue. I referred friends. I showed up for years. I supported this studio through major life changes and two pregnancies. I was there when they opened. After six years, I expected to feel like a valued customer. Instead, I feel completely disregarded. If this is how Orangetheory Idylwood treats its founding members and long-term clients, I cannot recommend this studio. Loyalty should go both ways.
