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 started in April of 2023 and as of today Jan 19th 2024 I am down 50lbs and have lost 3 dress sizes! The instructors are there because they want to be. They are encouraging, fun, upbeat and have become like family. They push you when you need it and always have an encouraging word when you are struggling to get that last rep in before the buzzer. The other client's are also outstanding and miss you when you are not around. If you are looking for a gym that caters to all ages, sizes and fitness levels then this is the place. Regardless if you are super fit or just getting started you will find that Empower Fitness is your new favorite spot!

I had been going to the drop-in…read moreclasses at Oak Marr Rec Center for about a year (4-5x/week), when my favorite classes started to get so crowded that I had to show up 15-20 minutes early just to get in (and still I'd have to fight for space on the floor) and eventually I pulled something in my back and had to stop exercising for several months. Empower Fitness has everything I wasn't getting at Oak Marr: small, uncrowded classes (that you reserve a spot for); classes on holidays (Memorial Day, July 4, Labor Day...); workout routines that change regularly and often; and, most importantly, attentive instructors. They teach the proper form for each exercise and keep an eye on you during class, giving suggestions and encouragement. All fitness levels are welcome, and the instructors provide modifications to accommodate ability and injuries. I've been going 12x/month for a year (4-5x/week during the summer) and I am still injury-free and looking forward to every class.

Including that I spent a ton of money on the link that goes on my Apple Watch for orange theory and it had so many technical difficulties which they refused to resolve. They wouldn't give me a new one or send it out for testing but it continued to not work and I was barely able to track progress. I would also have to stop in the middle of a workout for them to try to get it to link to my watch. Anyway, I recently considered giving orange theory a shot again. I started looking at this location with the hope they might be more professional. They have repeatedly called and emailed me. At this point I feel they should know that if someone really wants to join, they will. Calling and emailing again and again doesn't change anything. At first I was just ignoring it but this morning they called me before it's even 9:00am yet. On a Sunday. I personally felt this was really disrespectful. They obviously don't have any care or respect and once again come off as unprofessional. At least understand that it's a Sunday before 9:00 am. I am with my family. Stop harassing me.

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.

I came in for my regular workout around 8:00 PM and started a warm-up on a machine in the personal training area. I understand that this area is prioritized for personal training between 6 AM and 7:30 PM, but at that time (8pm)there wasn't anyone using this specific machine. I even asked another member nearby, who confirmed he was not using it. A trainer with tag name under Michael L approached me in a very aggressive and confrontational manner. I had my headphones on and barely heard him yelling out, but before I could even respond, he walked up and pretty much forcefully pulled the machine cord and told me to leave this machine because he claimed to be using it for his trainee. What made the situation worse was that even the trainees he was working with appeared uncomfortable, and another member who witnessed the interaction told me not to mind him and kindly offered me his machine instead. This was a very disappointing experience and not the level of professionalism I expect from someone representing this gym. I hope management addresses this, as it reflects poorly on an otherwise good facility.

I have never met a group that cares so much about the health and well being of others that they spend nearly every waking moment studying and teaching people about how to move better, faster, and stronger. The training programs they write are based on years of study and research and they individualize it to a persons needs. They first give you an assessment in which they take videos and analyze specific movement patterns to find strengths and weaknesses. They then use the information to design an intelligent, safe and highly effective program to you or your athlete the competitive edge. If you are unsure just go and talk to them yourself and you will instantly see their passion and devotion to make you and your athlete better. Don't hesitate and go and get that edge.

One was already in college and just wanted to get fit, the other was a swimmer who was getting ready for his senior year in high school. Their training was instrumental in his getting personal bests during high school swim and helped get him on a DIII college swim team and he was sad when he finally had to give up SAPT to go to college. Our daughter continued to get ready for her club volleyball season, but suffered an ACL tear an had to have full reconstruction surgery in January of 2021. She was back at SAPT only about two weeks later, with the doctor's blessing, and they worked on her upper body and healthy leg. When she was able to start PT on her knee, Hunter, her SAPT coach, was able to work with that PT so the PT worked on flexibility while SAPT worked on strength. She shocked the doctor at her check ups, as there is usually significant atrophy in the injured leg but she hardly had any. She came back stronger than ever, thanks to her trainers at SAPT, and had an amazing u17's club volleyball season and it looks like she'll be playing DI! I would highly recommend SAPT for any athlete, or anyone who just wants to get into shape!!!!
