Glen is a well-rounded personal trainer that is super supportive and incredibly knowledgable about…read more efficient fitness routines. He knows how to breakdown your goals (or finding them in my case) into a manageable schedule of workouts and movement variations. I think good personal trainers are always able to walk the line of pushing you to your limit, but also pulling you into new territory. A strong fitness framework personalized and crafted by great trainers will always have you feeling like you accomplished a major milestone after each workout. And by that measure Glen is the greatest!!

Carlos has been my trainer for over 6 years now and hands down, he is the best trainer I have ever…read morehad. He truly wants the best for his clients- he always gives 100% plus, he is tough but always fair. I was 20lbs heavy and not happy with how I looked and I am now at the best shape of my life. You have to commit to giving it your all- and then Carlos will be there with you every step of the away. I travel a decent amount for work which sometimes limits how often I can see Carlos. He had taught me so many exercises I can do in a hotel room. You aren't his client for one hour- he truly wants the best for you. I highly recommend Carlos and the trainers at ADR Fitness.

The other reviewers aren't kidding -- We Rep Fitness is incredible. As someone who has seen way too…read moremany physical therapists and 1:1 trainers because of chronic back/shoulder conditions/injuries/pain, I know Carlos and Josh are easily the best of the best. Carlos, who has been my personal trainer, is a GEM. At first, I thought about signing up for a Pilates class but I'm glad I found a more sustainable solution. He has somehow been able to teach me new routines that build on each other from session to session--and just four weeks in, I'm so much stronger physically (*and mentally*) than before. The focus on form and sharpening the mind-body connection is real. He's keen on making sure you retain how to train smart, as he teaches how/why each exercise will strengthen and stabilize my body (and what to avoid) so that I can keep going on my own with confidence. I really appreciate how he introduces new exercises (especially if they involve equipment/machines I've never used), breaks down what's happening, and is constantly checking in, so I know I'm not at risk of injuring myself. He's also been really non-judgmental and thoughtful about helping me develop realistic plans and practices about how to spend the other days of the week, especially given the fact that I don't always have access to equipment (and honestly, before working with Carlos, you would never have seen me near any gym equipment). Even if you don't have past injuries or chronic conditions that need to be accounted for, I think everyone would benefit from his injury prevention expertise and his ability to read what motivates you throughout sessions. I also got one of the best sports massages ever from Josh. He's incredibly knowledgeable and has wicked ability to holistically assess what's needed to provide deep, targeted relief rather than something superficial. Highly, highly recommend. (And you can also get massages without the training/gym classes too!) Other basics: WeRep has super clean facilities, all the gym equipment ever, showers/towel/soap/shampoo, massage table. Communication via email and text has always been prompt and straightforward. Only time can tell, but I think that deciding to sign up WeRep personal training might be one of the best investments I will ever make. I'm only here for the summer, so I envy those of you lucky enough to be here all year in DC. And for other folks here in the summer, I know Carlos and Josh have been making a serious difference in my life physically, mentally, and energetically in just a few weeks--so it's definitely worth stopping by while you can.

I've been working with Brian as my trainer for about 2 years now and he's really helped me get into…read morea rhythm where working out (which isn't something that I enjoy) is not a chore. What's good about him is he listens. If you want a hard workout, that's what you'll get. If you want something moderate or low level, he'll work with you on that, too. No preaching, just motivation. If you're considering personal trainers I suggest giving Brian a call or sending an e-mail.

I've been training with Brian for a little over 3 months now and I really cannot recommend him…read moreenough. I met him at my gym and we started training that week. Not only is he kind and extremely flexible, he will go above and beyond to help make your workout fit a busy schedule. The best thing about him is he is super kind and very honest with what to expect. I explained exactly what my goals are, and he was honest with where we would start and what my progress will look like depending on the time I dedicate throughout my week. He won't yell at you or have you attempting exercises that are discouraging or unrealistic - he will meet you where you are and help you grow. I have at times found myself discouraged if I feel I need to move down with a weight, reps, or feel like I am not seeing results "fast enough", but Brian always takes the time to explain why we do a specific exercise, what it works, and what we need to spend more time on if I find something difficult. Overall, Brian is someone I recommend without hesitation. I plan on continuing with him for a long time because I have had nothing short of a positive and growing experience with him and my relationship with the gym. (and his rates are absolutely doable!)

I have had the privilege to train with Kenny this year. He has been an absolute heaven-send. Kenny…read moreis great with all of his clients! He is extremely dedicated, personable, and very knowledgeable about the various exercise and weight training programs offered. I have back injuries from being rear-ended last year. So having modified workout options is important to me. He has been conscious of working around injuries and building muscle groups to prevent something much needed in my early 40s! He makes the workouts enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. He also challenges me to assess all areas of my life, for the best possible outcomes (in a safe and nonjudgemental way). That means planning my workout objectives, looking at my eating habits as well the spiritual and mental aspects of my life- (because it all coincides)! He is also tremendously kind and responsive in our in-between communication and flexible! Grateful to have found Fit For Life and would recommend the investment.

The environment is always upbeat, encouraging, and I always look forward to going, even though I know I'm going to get a grueling work-out. But I love the results and I'm willing to bet you will too. So, if you want to give yourself a chance for a better looking and healthier you, then give "Fit for Life" a try.

Joel is a true professional, and I would highly recommend him to anyone! I started training with…read morehim twice a week for a few months before a wedding about a year ago, and I was really happy with both process and results. Today I train with him weekly to keep myself on track and continually challenged/engaged. Joel is always super attentive to form (much more so than many other trainers, who often get distracted as you perform an exercise, which defeats the point of hiring a trainer) as well as any questions/feedback. His instructions are always clear and he's incredibly upbeat, even in early morning sessions. If you want conversation to distract you, he's got it, but when that's not the case, he gets the hint and lets you focus. I've noticed that Joel seems to have a fairly diverse clientele in terms of gender and body type, which I think speaks to how well he can adapt to your needs and personal style. As a woman, I also appreciate that he's a doting husband and dad to two young girls, and carries a respect for women and their bodies into our conversations about body image.

I have been training with Tom for a few years now. I finally got around to writing a review! It…read morehas been a great experience. Here are some things you should know about Tom: Tom is always fully involved during our sessions. I see other trainers at the gym texting and even talking on the phone while they have clients. Tom doesn't disappear and he doesn't leave me running on the treadmill for 20 minutes while he socializes at the gym. He gives me his full attention and that is very important to me when I am paying for training. Tom always changes things up. Some trainers will just put you through some circuit or routine they have memorized and you end up doing the same thing, week after week. Tom constantly surprises me with new exercises. Not only does it keep it interesting, it also challenges me and my muscles! Tom is very personable, interesting and fun to talk to. This distracts me from the task at hand so my hour of working out flies by. Also, he is really patient and doesn't make me feel dumb when I can't always do things as well as he can. Tom is really concerned about form and about stretching. Both of these things make me feel comfortable and safe. I have seen other trainers at the gym whose clients are clearly doing things completely wrong and the trainer never corrects them. Tom is very careful about this in order to prevent injury and unnecessary strain. Having a personal trainer may seem excessive - like working out is something you should be able to do on your own. For me, it has kept me going to the gym consistently over the last 3 years. Without my sessions with Tom to motivate me, I'm sure I would be sitting on the couch again. It feels really good to be in good shape and I can't thank Tom enough for it.

Tom has been an instrumental part in me losing 60+ pounds and keeping it off. He is not only very…read morefocused on making the work out different each time, but he is critically focused on ensuring that you are using safe form (critical for us that have 2 left feet). In addition, with his in depth knowledge of cinema, music and world travel, he keeps the conversation flowing so that you are finished with your work out before you even know it. A big plus for me is that he is not associated with any of the big chain gyms so he can work out flexible training arrangement with each client without all the rules and BS of big gym politics.

It's about doing the moves the right way, using the right muscles and improving your overall strength and fitness. Charles helped me before I was even a client.

On top of being knowledgeable, he holds people accountable for their goals, without being insulting or preachy. And, best of all, he's just generally a nice person. Highly recommend him and his group classes!
