    Looking for a quality, unpretentious gym in the Petworth area? Look no further than the Fitness Factory. I was searching for weeks for a gym near my house that doesn't cost a ridiculous amount of money. I'm lazy, and refuse to drive to NoMa or Ivy City to workout. Appear: Fitness Factory. $39 per month for a membership. It has all the equipment I need, punching bags, and off street parking (which is rare in this city!). The manager is amazing and makes each client feel like they are a priority. Highly recommend the one on one training sessions as well!

    Stop in at Fitness Factory front desk for your free health and fitness consultation.      Thank you  fitness Factory

Classes that always have a different workout to keep you on your toes. Fun and friendly regulars to get to know in classes and social events the gym puts on. I actually just moved, and one of the hardest parts was leaving this place! I'll be coming back from time to time. I also just completed a Nutrition Challenge with the gym's nutrition coach and a team of gym/community members, and it was a great experience. Michelle is an awesome coach. She's very encouraging, available with helpful tips and answers to any questions to get you through the day, and she is also kind and doesn't let you be too hard on yourself! The challenge group has kept me accountable, and I've had great results: I'm feeling better and I've lost weight.

The team is super easy going- I know I can go to them with any questions and they will happily help me out. They are supportive and fun to spend time with. I enjoy thinking of going to workout at the end of each day, which probably is not true for your average person going to a workout class. The team does a great job of individually onboarding new clients to help them get started. They explain the workouts well at the beginning of class, as to accommodate people of all experience levels. Otherwise, the space is great and is always clean and organized. I would highly recommend anyone in the area test out the gym.

    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.

    Always a great workout, well maintained facilities and the community is great. Highly recommend.read more

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.

I'm actually paying for a separate Nutritionist who I visit about every month. I started here about two months ago, and I've been much more committed this time around. It's even more motivational that the gym.is located literally across the street from my apartment. It's a decent gym and they have almost everything that I need, minus the abs machine. 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.

Staff is none pressure, and generally at the desk :-D The gym itself is fine for what it is. Late-night hours mean fewer people, easier access to machines, and a more relaxed workout. During busier times, I can see this location feeling more cramped and less convenient. Biggest issue here is parking. It's not intuitive, not particularly close, and can feel annoying if you're already trying to squeeze in a quick workout. Overall, it works best if you're a night owl and already familiar with the area. Not my favorite Planet Fitness, but manageable with the right timing.

As we discussed different options before I completed my decision, Justin promoted the business in sharing some information that I was unaware of. Another employee name Brittany who needed to use his register also spoke to me and added other ideas that gave me another way of making my decision. What I observed was Justin, Brittany and Nyla were a team. Nyla became involved because Justin helped another client which these rotated their strengths and resolved three (3) different issues within one cycle. I was very impressed. Sharing this moment left me w/we do have Customer Service w/human beings and not automated who are very successful in completing a process all the way through. These three (3) positive and power moves exemplified; common courtesy, kind and caring spirits. They smiled during my entire visit and were very pleasant along w/having knowledge and gave me a whole new outlook to hold onto as a lasting impression. Thank you Planet Fitness for your select few that influenced me to stay in my contract. Please let me know them know I appreciate them and know they will go far, just keep striving for the best. KUDOS Planet Fitness for this Power Play move of this Team effort!!! "Sometimes Five Stars Is Not Enough"

Ok: the functional fitness area is a lot smaller than expected. It felt like the emphasis was on group fitness. The recovery options were limited to theraguns, sauna foam rollers when I visited. Disappointing: for the monthly fee, I'd expect a pool. I don't think any of the Equinox locations in the DMV are particularly stellar in comparison to other cities.

I've heard the NY ones are even better, so I'm excited to check them out the next time I visit New York! The Wisconsin one is the best one in the DMV area, in my opinion. It is brand new (about 6 months old) and offers free 2 hour validated garage parking. The DMV membership gym gives you access to multiple equinox gym, including the ones I go to: Tyson's corner (free all day parking), Wisconsin Ave (2 hour free parking), and Bethesda (paid parking). Benefits of Wisconsin Ave: - Brand New - Next to Wegmans (can grab a snack) and King Street Oyster (happy hour) - Free 2 hour parking - Large range of classes and timeframes - Great bench spot for people who WFH - Steam Room Downsides: - No pool - More limited personal trainers tiers (they're still hiring) - Only 2 hour parking (about one class + a shower could fit in this timeframe). - Traffic into DC can take awhile Why I decided to join Equinox in general: - Fantastic bathrooms - cleaned 3x/day with Kiehls products (some of the best skincare/hair stuff) - Provides measurements and fat-muscle ratios - Has Eucalyptus infused towels - Luxury aesthetic and feeling - Overall lifestyle Equinox is truly a lifestyle, not just a gym. You're surrounded by likeminded people!
