I had a great experience with Brandon. He taught me new skills that I can carry with me, even when I work out at home. He is a super nice guy and I enjoyed getting to know him. Definitely recommend, for anyone from beginners to those trying to hit their own goals. read more

I'm 42 years old and have never worked with a trainer before. I've been working with Brandon for about a month and so far have lost fifteen pounds and feel better every day, with fewer aches and pains and increased energy. Brandon has been patient and engaged in each session, bringing positive energy and a genuine interest in me while leading me through the exercises at my pace, providing encouragement, and giving me good advice about nutrition and meeting my health goals. Highly recommended! read more

I got lucky when I was introduced to Brandon 6 months ago while searching for a specific type of yoga for a knee injury. I didn't think I could strength train again due to my knee pain, but I was wrong. Brandon is an outstanding listener and is incredibly knowledgeable and experienced in addressing sports injuries. He knew how to address my injury without making it worse. My knee pain is now gone! I've trained with several trainers over the years and what sets Brandon apart is his ability to personalize each workout to suit my individual needs. The workouts are challenging yet achievable, pushing me to go beyond what I thought was possible. Sometimes, I surprise myself. Brandon is a great motivator and his energy is contagious. I'm now in the best shape of my life and cannot thank him enough! read more

Great trainer. Organized and knowledgeable. His workouts are challenging, yet he's supportive and attentive, making modifications when necessary. I highly recommend Team Dunston! read more

Brandon was very helpful in designing a full body workout program, which he tweaked as I progressed to keep things challenging. He's a super nice guy too. Would recommend! read more

Mr. Dunston is an excellent personal trainer. He helps you work towards your health and fitness goals. He really cares about pushing you to work harder and learn exercises that you can do at home. The app we use to train is also very helpful. Every time I come in for a session, he identifies a weaknesses he pushes me even harder to overcome them. The exercises he has taught me have helped me strengthen my core and also helped me lose weight. I've been coming in once a week with my wife and I really have to say I'm impressed with how effective his sessions are. I highly recommend working with Mr. Dunston. He really cares about personal fitness and has different programs to suit peoples different needs. The studio location is convenient and is fully equipped. I'll often find free parking on N. Barton Street without any issues. read more

Brandon has been my trainer for several years and is the reason I've maintained a high level of fitness, despite my busy life. Although I am over 50, I am as strong - if not stronger - than I was in my twenties. He is excellent at varying my workouts, is patient, and has a great sense of humor. However, what I appreciate most is how well he incorporates advice from my physical therapist into every session. Like many people in middle age, I have knee and hip issues that require attention; Brandon is very creative at including my PT exercises into my workouts. As a result, I have improved dramatically. I highly recommend Brandon to anyone who is interested in having a personal trainer. read more

Good guy who runs a good weekend workout. Very patient and makes it scalable for different fitness levels.

Brandon is an excellent trainer and an all-around amazing person. He's clearly extremely well-qualified and is a master of his trade. I really appreciate his approach of asking all the right questions, listening keenly, and tailoring a movement, nutrition and strength training program based on individualised goals and needs. Beyond the technical aspects of it all, at which he's an expert, Brandon is so kind, compassionate, and encouraging. He's a great person and is so interesting to talk to as well. Highly recommend! read more

I started training with Brandon a month ago, and he's very patient, explains all the exercises and plans workouts based on my personal goals. The newsletters he sends regularly with healthy recipes are also a lot of fun. I would recommend Brandon to anyone who's interested in starting personal training and developing a workout routine. read more

This was my first time using a Groupon trainer and it has been a wonderful experience. I have used a different app to find a trainer and that didn't go well so I was apprehensive but wanted a trainer and the Groupon price was bargain compared to what 8 training sessions usually are. I met the trainer and he was very professional, inquisitive and personable. He asked questions about my goals, my reason for training and my availability. I hate working out, I hate pain and usually will stop and move on to the next if left to my own but Brandon doesn't force but encourages and is very friendly and personable without being unprofessional. I enjoyed it so much that after my Groupon time was up I rolled over to normal package plan. The building is clean and in a safe environment and I see results and am able to do things I haven't done in years. read more

There was no exercise I hadn't done in years to get in shape.(PT,solidcore,pilates,boot camp and yoga)But after a month of meeting Brandon, he seems to have gotten a little healthier. In particular, the buttocks and legs show distinct changes. It was a short but effective exercise. read more

I started training with Brandon about a month ago and it's been great. I am usually intimidated going into a gym because I never know what to do but Brandon structures workouts in an easy and repeatable way. There is an app used to track everything. It definitely takes the pressure off and allows me to just focus on getting stronger. He knows the balance between pushing me to go harder and staying at a particular level and takes into account any health concerns along the way. He's patient, personable, and knowledgeable. I enjoy working with him and would definitely recommend him. read more

Due to the pandemic I was working from home, and needed to get back to the gym. Started working with Dunston and I have to say it was the best decision Dunston is patient and very knowledgeable about the techniques for each type of workout. He sets goals for you and tackles them Highly recommended! read more

I have been training with Brandon for over three years now and enjoyed every minute. I started to get myself out of a physical and mental rut and it has definitely helped. Brandon is encouraging without being pushy, and is very creative with workouts, so it's something different every time, but always a full body workout. He is responsive to requests to work on a specific muscle group or type of lift, and he tracks your progress closely to make sure you are always challenged. I do both personal training and weekend bootcamp with him and am never bored, always glad i did it. We did outdoor bootcamps all through these last two pandemic winters, so he's really all in for his clients. He has a couple really good value groupons to get you started. I've had other personal trainers in the past who have been fine, but Brandon is really exceptional. Highly recommend, worth every penny. read more

Brandon - where do I start? Within a month, I am already seeing results. The core training exercises you tailored for me, the diet plan, and the technology you incorporate into your services has been really a great experience for me. I plan to continue to train with you and referred many of my friends to you. Congratulations on your business success. Definitely highly recommended. read more

Brandon is an amazing trainer. He is devoted, focused, and gives his undivided attention while you are training with him. So, you really feel the time you spend with him is worth the money you invest. What I like about his training style is that he work with you to achieve your goals and you see results. Finally, he is a positive human being with soothing energy. I highly recommend him as a personal trainer!!! read more

I started meeting with Brandon after purchasing a Groupon deal with a friend for 10 boot camp classes. The deal was awesome and the location was close by. I participate in Brandon's small group training classes on Mondays and Wednesday evenings. This experience is truly unique. You get a great vibe working out with less than a handful of other people, but still get personal instruction and attention as if it were a private session. Brandon listens to areas of concern you have and tailors the workout to your preference. My friend and I enjoy this class so much that we recommended and got another friend on board! I've also continued paying for sessions after the Groupon deal expired. In my opinion, his prices are fair and well worth it considering how personal of a session it feels like. I definitely recommend Brandon if you're looking for a tailored, fun, comfortable, and encouraging workout environment. read more

Working with Brandon was great! I was able to learn techniques to improve my form and become more confident at the gym. He is very easy to talk to and I was very comfortable training with him! read more

I am so pleased with Teamdunston and Brandon my trainer. I have only completed the 8 initial training sessions that I purchased on Groupon and I am already feeling better. Brandon has not only helped me get back to a routine of working out, but he has also been instrumental in my overall diet and learning to eat the right foods. Brandon is one of those types of trainers that is straight to the point and he pushed your limits each and every time you workout. I have already been telling my family and friends about Brandon and Teamdunston. Thank you and I look forward to the coming months and results from your guidance Brandon. read more

Love this place! A great place to work out, especially during COVID since it's a smaller setting, with all the equipment you need. Brandon is a great trainer who is very attentive to your needs! read more

Brandon is an awesome Trainer. Started where I was and helped me get stronger. Can't wait for this self-isolation to be done so I can start training with him again. read more

Brandon is a fantastic trainer. I took his class at Energy Club a few times several years ago and he not only remembered me, but also my strengths and limits. I really appreciate that he customizes and varies every workout, even to outside conditions, as I felt more comfortable exercising outdoors during the pandemic. Brandon stays in touch between sessions, is super responsive and clearly cares about his clients. Already recommended him to several friends. read more

I first came to Brandon with very specific goals in mind, particularly related to my lifting. I had become way too comfortable with squatting/deadlifting/benching the same weight for months, and I wanted a personal trainer who would help me push past that mental block. Brandon helped me not only meet my goals, but exceed them to where I was lifting more weight than I thought I could. He is knowledgeable, friendly, professional and positive. I found him through Groupon but have stayed on as a client. In fact, my husband and I now both train with him. Our sessions are fun and challenging. Brandon will help you meet your goals if you're willing to put in the work. We're so glad we found him. read more

I had a great experience with Brandon! I felt supported and encouraged the whole time. He personalized the lessons to suit my goals and needs. I saw improvements in my stamina and how much weight I could handle after the first session. Definitely recommend! read more

I started working out with Brandon about a month ago and have been impressed with his training style and ability to push me beyond my physical limits. Working out with him is always a challenge which has produced the results I've been looking for. read more

Where to even begin. I was browsing through local person trainers and I came across a Groupon for Teamdunston. I was a bit skeptical about getting a personal trainer with a coupon, but wow, I am very happy I made the move to get it. My trainer was Brandon and he was great. My main goal was to learn proper form for compound lifting and the science behind it and he was able to answer all of my questions. Literally, all of them.. and I ask a lot of questions to say the least. I have decided at continue using his services after the Groupon finished. Well worth the money. If you are looking for someone that will help motivate you, teach you proper form, and help you with your nutrition plan, Brandon is a great trainer to work with. read more

I just joined the Energy Club in Shirlington and have taken several classes 3 of which were lead by Brandon. He is an excellent instructor, very helpful and hands-on. He also plays some of the best music I've ever heard from a class instructor. He even sent me his playlist for me to listen to while I do my power walks. He's a guy who cares about YOU and it shows! read more

Brandon is amazing. I first found him through a Groupon, but 8 months later I have found myself hooked! He is extremely knowledgeable, supportive, and truly does care about YOU. If you're looking for a trainer who will motivate you to reach your goals, look no further. Also, he knows how to work with different dietary needs (esp. vegetarian/vegan) and the science behind healthy eating. You may leaver sorer than you've ever been in your life, but it's worth it! read more

It has been awesome working out with Brandon! I had no prior experience working with a personal trainer so wasn't sure what to expect. He takes the time to listen to your goals. The plan he put together is easy for me to follow and continually changes. I have seen results in my overall strength and fitness level. He does expect hard work and accountability but I find his workouts to be fun. I would HIGHLY recommend him to be your trainer! read more

I started working with Brandon and going to the classes he teaches about a year and a half ago when the original teacher of the class left. From the very first session, I knew that his workouts would be great for me. First, he did a thorough assessment of my fitness level and asked me what I wanted out of my workouts. This was important to me because that allowed him to tailor a program to my needs. He paid attention to my form and made me work hard the program and workouts were fun as well. He is a great person who is also flexible with scheduling which is important to me as well. Even though I was not in great shape when I started working out with him, there was not a single point I felt intimidated nor was there a time where I wanted to quit the program. I also like the fact that he plays the music that I like during individual sessions and even incorporates requests into his group classes making things more fun. He also changes up the workout enough that you don't get bored. In a group session, he has done outdoor work (great when the weather is nice) and also partnering up with people and moving from station to station, all of which keep me interested and motivated. In addition to feeling stronger and fitter after working with Brandon, I had the additional benefit of weight loss that I was looking for. He was also able to recommend how to improve my diet to fit with my workout plan. Overall, he is a great teacher who knows what works for individuals and I would recommend him to anyone interested in getting into a great fitness routine or just looking for something that works! read more

Brandon is great. I too met him when I bought a Groupon for personal training, and 3 years later I'm still working with him and in the best shape I've ever been in. I've taken his boot camp classes too and those are excellent as well. When he sees you making the effort, he will go the extra mile to accommodate your needs. You won't be disappointed. read more

I highly recommend training with Brandon. I started working with Brandon in May 2016, about 7 months after having my left ACL reconstructed. I had been through a long recovery and rehab, and he knew exactly how to train someone in my condition. He is very creative with my training sessions; we haven't done the same workout twice! In 4 months, I have rebuilt my left quad, virtually eliminated the residual pain in my knee, and increased my strength to a point where I am stronger than I was pre-surgery. I know I could not have made this much progress in such a short amount of time without Brandon's expertise and dedication to me achieving my goals. It has been a fantastic experience. read more
