First, yes, I saw clear results in my strength and cardio: I increased my running endurance by a mile and beat my best time, leveled up in my upper body strength enough that visibly improved my posture and defined my biceps, and I had a smaller waist that meant I could wear ALL my pants again lol. More than that, Errick's supportive coaching improved my positive self-talk, resilience, and motivation in ways that have helped me in my personal and professional life. I never used to say to myself "you can do this" out loud until now and it's allowed me to work through more ambitious goals. If you're looking for a perfect balance of cheerleader and challenger, an uncanny ability to spot incorrect form (my squats have gotten so much better), unconditional enthusiasm, and a music mix catered to your tastes, Errick is your guy. I so enjoyed working with him that I plan to restart sessions soon!

I've been training with Derrick for a year now, and I can honestly say it's been one of the best…read moredecisions I've made for my health. The thing that keeps me coming back is the variety -- every session has exercises I've never done before, so it never feels repetitive or boring. The environment is relaxed and welcoming, without any of the intimidation you get walking into a big gym, which made a huge difference for me starting out. Derrick is always on time and very flexible with scheduling, which makes it easy to fit sessions into a busy week. He's also great at adapting workouts around injuries -- I never feel like I'm being pushed into something my body can't handle. And his approach to diet is refreshingly realistic: manageable, sustainable, and actually effective. Most importantly, I'm seeing real results. If you're looking for a trainer who knows his stuff, keeps things fresh, and makes the whole process enjoyable, Derrick is your guy. 5 stars.

I do have the Gold membership and I think that it's a good fit for me since I rarely have ever participated in any type of gym class. They do offered the classes here, and I've seen a number of people leaving from a class. I appreciate that the gym is available for whenever I need it, and even more importantly that they're located so close to me.

My favorite longtime gym in DC! I've been a member for several years and this year hit my 400…read moreclasses milestone -- figured now was a good time to finally leave a review. Fit360 is a great model of a community gym -- the staff is friendly, the owner is a local, and fellow gym goers are courteous. I am someone who benefits from classes to help me push myself and I especially love their lift classes, which are typically small (under 10 people) and mixed gender, with varying levels for each station based on your fitness and expertise. Jonathan and Nino both do a great job as instructors helping with form and technique. This year I also added in some personal training with Kwame and it has been fantastic so far. So glad this gym is part of my community.

To say that joining Ultimate Performance about 18 months ago was one of the key moments in my life…read morewould not be an understatement. For over the last decade - I have been yo-yo'ing with different strength trainers and diets in an attempt to regain the same level of fitness that I had in my 20s. Unfortunately - over that time I have seen my weight increase by over 80 lbs. Since joining UP - I have seen the weight drop in a slow, steady and most importantly sustainability manner. UP is able to accomplish this because they have a system that combines strength training, cardio, nutrition and sleep. All of this is wrapped around an application that you use to track a variety of metrics (sleep, diet, steps, etc). This information is reviewed daily (if not more often) by your trainer - they make sure that you are on the correct path. If someone had told me when I started all of this - that in a year I would be running, doing metric century bike rides, and would almost be under 200 lbs - I would have laughed at them. If you want to change your life - come give UP a chance. You will be blown away by how supportive everyone is, how fast the results come, how sustainable this is, and how much better you will feel.

I recommend UP in general and Zach in particular. UP is different than other gyms to which I've…read morebelonged. You come in at specific times to work with your trainer doing specific lifts; the focus is on lifting rather than cardio. I wasn't sure about the approach as my primary goal was fat loss, but it has both been successful and gives a great return on investment of time. The gym itself is better equipped than any facility I have seen, and the UP app is been helpful in tracking nutrition and workouts. But I think their trainers are the key. I started working with Zach last summer, and have been very happy with the results. I've lost over 30 pounds and have never been stronger. He is a great resource regarding technique in lifting and motivation during sessions, but also makes them enjoyable. Zach developed and adapted workouts and nutrition throughout, modifying to help me continue making progress, and helped me understand nutrition (which I thought I did before, but didn't). The program at UP worked better for me than anything else ever has, which I find remarkable as I am in my 50's with a busy life including job, family, and travel.

Checking in after a little over a year with Carmen at Ambitious. Simply put, there is a reason I…read moreshow up every morning I am in town. I have been in some sort of athletics since I was 5. I have been coached by professional trainers for the majority of that time, including D1 and Olympic coaches. I am happy to report that the entire team at Ambitious has kept me engaged, supported, and challenged the whole time. This is not only true of the coaching, but of the other members as well. At this point, they are friends. The workouts are programmed in a way that keeps me pushing myself while letting me scale back when needed. The coaching staff is always there to ensure form is solid or to offer an alternative if my body isn't 100% there that morning. Having worked with many strength coaches over the last 15 years, I am confident in saying that your well-being and safety are their top concern. This is coming from a former springboard and platform diving coach, whose first concern always had to be safety. On the member side, or team, as I like to think of them, I cannot say enough positive things. If I am out unexpectedly, people reach out to make sure I am okay. Everyone is there to see everyone get better, which brings incredible accountability. As someone who is not a morning person by any measure, I get myself out of bed for the 7:15 class willingly. 7:15 vs. the world. This has been a wonderful, impactful year with Ambitious. I am happy to keep life as my sport.

I signed up for the one week trial and had a great time! I was only able to attend four classes,…read morebut enjoyed each one. The instructors were really helpful and gave me some modification options. It would probably help to have some background knowledge of common lifts, but the instructors show the movements and they play on video screens if you need it. Everyone attending was generally in their own zone, so there isn't a lot of chatting because you really focus on getting the exercises done in the set times. I will say that the classes go by super quickly because you're always moving. Cons: The programming is set for the whole month. So each day of the week has its set program and you do that each week for the whole month. For me, this would get old (I really need variety). On the plus side, it does mean you get to see active gains throughout the month. The membership plan is a little pricey. I get why it costs so much, since they do have to cover rent and you only really attend during the class sessions. It isn't a type of gym where you just drop in when you want to use certain equipment. The unlimited monthly membership is $299, but in reality you are getting 30 or 31 classes depending on the month. Since the classes are the same all day, it is unlikely you would do two classes in a day, right? So the pricing is about $10/class if you do the unlimited monthly pass and you go every day. Some of the equipment was pretty smelly. I was at one station that honestly made me gag a little... I think the bench or maybe the dumbells had never been thoroughly cleaned with a bleach solution.
