Small group weight training is top notch, with tailored workouts for to meet your physical (and arguably mental) health needs. Trainers are unbelievably competent and supportive! I have significant health concerns, and I truly believe that this gym is part of the reason I stay well. Also, they have really cultivated community, so I have become friendly with so many of the people who train alongside with me. This gym is a gift to yourself. I hope you check it out soon!

I've been a member of UA since Feb 2016. At the time, I was on the cusp on turning 50 (OK, so you…read moreall know my age now!) and I knew it was (past) time to get serious about my health/fitness. I had done exercise programs on and off (mostly off) over the years. I knew how important exercise was but I hated it. It was either boring, or it wasn't convenient, or it was hard to stay motivated. Today, I have never felt stronger or more confident. In fact, to my huge surprise, when my job was causing serious stress, all I could think was, "I NEED a workout today." I have never said that in my life! The coaches at UA are top-notch professionals. They take their work seriously, celebrate with you, and are encouraging. I look forward to seeing the coaches -- they are energetic, friendly, supportive, and have taught me a tremendous amount. This contributes greatly to me staying motivated to keep coming back and improving. Getting a new program each month also helps stave off the typical boredom of a "regular" gym. Something else that was unexpected but great nonetheless -- there is a wide variety among UA's members (age, gender, physical shape, natural ability, etc.). I am inspired by and feel comfortable around my fellow UA-ers b/c they each face their own challenges. I highly recommend you give UA a shot. (The also have a location in Sterling, VA.)

I walk in and see a huge part of the place "under construction." Keep in mind I have a fractured elbow and other injuries, and the only way for me to train abs right now is with an ab machine which is locked away in a room labeled "under construction." Why can't you just move the only ab machine out of that room and put it in the main area? Is it too heavy? Does it not have wheels? I genuinely don't get it. And every time you walk in, something is always out of service. The Smith machine has been broken since August and it's now the end of the semester. All this money, and the only thing they can do is tell you "you can't do this, you can't do that." At this point I'm seriously considering getting a membership at a private gym. I can't stand this place anymore. If you go to GMU or plan to, seriously consider the fact that the fitness facilities, not just the Aquatic Center, offer horrible service with pointless "safety" rules and regulations that make everyone's life harder. Hope this helps.

Onelife gyms expanded to purchase a lot of locations of other region gyms and in doing so their styles differ a bit between gym - which may be jarring for some. But you don't have to notice if you get the cheaper membership with fewer gym choices. Classes are good and offer varied options, but you may have to hunt for which gym works for your time schedule as getting to one on time is a chore with our traffic. Including all the basics you may need and more, like child care optional extras for the families that need it. At this pace this is set to be a good gym for you for the next ten years easily.

Dear Customer Service Team,…read more I am writing to express my strong frustration regarding the High School Summer Pass Program. Despite your previous suggestion that I contact customer service directly to discuss these issues, it appears the broader feedback from paying members is being ignored. I urge you to review the numerous negative online comments and reviews about this program. Paying customers are deeply frustrated, and the claim that these high school participants are supervised does not reflect reality. There is a lack of basic etiquette and policy enforcement; for example, students frequently occupy machines while distracted by their phones. Furthermore, the safety programs you mentioned are not visible. As someone who visits the gym five to six times a week, I rarely see staff walking the floor, other than for occasional light dusting or refilling disinfectant bottles. The overall cleanliness and oversight of the facility need immediate attention. Before more loyal customers cancel their memberships, please review public feedback and take actionable steps to address these concerns.

What the heck is going on?!?! Reopen the dang pools or lower the rates!! I literally joined XSport in 2023 for the pool and then never got to use it because at first it kept needing repairs, then LA Fitness took over and closed it completely. I thought it was just that location (Strawberry Ln.) so I came to this one and it was closed too! So far, the only plus at this location is all the machines are usually in service (unlike strawberry ln, which has now closed completely). There's a 35lb kettlebell with no companion. All weights should have a companion. This is an easy fix that has never been addressed. Unlike Strawberry Ln, only ONE of the front desk staff is friendly and personable. I don't know his name but he's a gentleman with locs, he always greets everyone when they come and go. I've seen 2 trainers greet as well if I wave first. The other front desk staff just sit at the desk on their phone and say Hi - that's about it. Staff overall should be more personable and welcoming. Further, the plumbing is not good. The toilets can't even flush the toilet paper on the first flush. I have to press the button at least 5-7 times. There's almost no pressure. Highly unsanitary. The ladies locker room never smells like it's been tended to no matter what time I've been there. There's no trash but is anything being wiped down? Mopped? disinfected?! It doesn't smell like it. Only person I ever see cleaning around there is the guy who vacuums the floors, because he's often doing it during the evening rush. Operationally, he should probably vacuum before or after that evening rush or someone could trip over the extension cord he uses. He'll vacuum right around your feet while you're mid-movement. He's done it to me several times when I'm at the benches doing a set. It's distracting and dangerous. Because of the Strawberry Ln gym closing, this one is even more crowded. I hope they have plans to expand if they're not going to reopen the pool. Get rid of it and add more machines or something. It's highly unfair for the pool to be advertised and that our membership was partially based on that, for it to not even be available! Lastly, the signs still say Xsport even though it's been LA Fitness for over a year. Update your information!

Decided to try it out now that LA Fitness took over - in hopes that it was cleaned up and a better overall gym. This. Place. Is. Disgusting. I did a free trial and went in the morning. The bathrooms were gross with full sanitary containers in the stalls. Soap was empty in all but one of the dispensers. Someone left food just sitting, opened and spoiling, on the counter. Clearly whoever cleans before they lock up decided to omit the cleaning part. The gym space has so much potential but everything is insanely worn down and DIRTY. I've been to 'run down' gyms and you don't need new, fancy equipment to be clean. Also, the person that closed the night before clearly didn't care to put anything away. Looked like a toddlers play room after a candy induced episode - stuff all over the place. This place needs to shut down, revamp the entire interior, and just start over. I hate that the closest, most convenient gym makes you feel like you need a tetanus shot after a work out.

I would prefer how other locations have a sauna room in the bathroom for each gender. My main problem with the gym is the cleanliness. The women's restroom is always nasty. Toilet paper everywhere that doesn't get cleaned up, seats greasy or sometimes wet. One of the toilets is currently broken. The door on one stall barely opens while another one barely closes. I workout multiple times a week at different times, it doesn't matter. It is always a mess. Sometimes it's slightly stinky. Floors are often wet and slippery.
