Before…read morestarting to work out at this fitness studio, you are required to complete a movement assessment and evaluation where Immie and Greg can see where you are starting from, access any limitations and deficiencies and plan how to correct the deficiencies and overcome any limitations. While I was enrolled in Small Group Training, my experience was more like working with a Personal Trainer. From TRX, to Weight LIfting, to Kettlebells and Medicine Balls and a myriad of different training modalities, you were sure to get Strong and Fit at Exsurgo. Immie Cross, an Elite Spartan Racer, a Les Mills International Trainer and Instructor, is such a caring and compassionate trainer. Whether you want to train for an Obstacle Course Race, or just improve your overall health, this is a great place to train with personalized attention that you cannot get at every gym. The community built there is so welcoming and supportive!

She started working with Greg in late fall, and in the few months since she's been training with him, her entire brain space and outlook, as well as her athletic capability, has changed. She's faster, she's stronger, and she's able to do things better than she could before she hurt herself. She feels capable and confident in her sport now. Greg treats her with respect, and courtesy, while not letting her slack off. He's not only trained her, he's taught her HOW to train. How to lift, how to move, how to recover. The foundation my kid now has is incomparable, and her outlook on herself has improved, thanks to Greg.

Talk about…read morebeing at the right place and the right time, it couldn't have come at the most appropriate time in my life. Around this time last year, I overcame a bout with cancer and underwent 8 weeks of radiation therapy. During that time, I had lost a significant amount of weight and muscle mass. In an effort to not look so sickly, post-radiation treatments, I began gaining weight again, but in an unhealthy fashion. Fast forward to early March this year, I embarked on a entirely new journey of how staying healthy should be...it's not just about working out, but rather an entire LIFESTYLE change. Icon Gym was the perfect fit for me - a combination of challenging workouts, personal coaching, and diet/meal planning. Dave is the ultimate fitness trainer and coach, with a knack for positive encouragement and motivation. I have never worked with a gym or trainers as knowledgeable as Dave. He gets to the root of the problem and works with you every step of the way. I recently concluded my 6-Week Challenge and lost weight, reduced my body fat, and gained muscle mass. I have now decided to become a full time client/member as I am looking forward to continuing and maintaining my health and well-being. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Icon Gym and Dave Shutler for anyone that is serious about a complete lifestyle change, not someone trying to find just another gym.

I was looking for a personal trainer/possibly CrossFit box to help me get in and stay in shape and…read morethat is when I found Icon Gym's 6-Week Challenge ad on Facebook. Despite the fact that I did not expect much due to my crazy schedule for school and work that only allowed me to work out three-four times a week, I started seeing results within two months of training with Dave! I can definitely see that my body has gotten more toned --I now have a flatter stomach. What is even better is the fact that I have become so much stronger, which I now believe is what fitness is all about. Dave has been extremely helpful adding some bodybuilding workouts to compliment my strength and condition training and the results are remarkable! His workouts are always challenging so I'm always feeling them days after, especially legs. In addition to effective training methods, Dave is also very book smart on the topic. He is able to articulate how each workout will benefit you and what part of the body is getting the benefit and all in a way that doesn't sound like a high school chemistry teacher is lecturing you. Dave is a genuine, fun, & effective trainer who not only talks the talk but walks the walk. If he's good enough to impress the Ultimate Warrior he's good enough to make you one as well. As for the gym itself, space is medium size, however, Dave is super nice and he knows how to use the space. Thus, I find that the space is usually well-managed and it is never really crowded. Overall, the gym environment is friendly and supportive, I really enjoy being there!

There's a posing room for anyone who is a competitor and wants to take photos with the perfect lighting. It's not super expensive but the price does go up every so often so get in sooner rather than later to lock in your cheaper price! The people who lift here are all kind and friendly people despite what you may think about their appearance. The shakes here are actually super delicious and I find myself ordering them here and there. If you want a more old school style gym where it's all about getting your workout done and working hard, then this is the place for you. There's a large parking lot but it shares its space with many other businesses so the lot can get pretty full.

Having said that...I've experienced it, and umm...with mosquito bites still itching, this was cool...not sure if I would say, "yes" again. While he set up the tents, I went to grab a margarita. Upon my return, I was impressed with the setup. Who knew camping could be "chic"? lol. After sending my daughter pics, she said it was, "glamping," not "camping." Lol Honestly, I enjoyed. Just hated the bugs. I love to read. If you do too, bring a good book. The camping ground is spacious. You're assigned a lot where you set up your tent(s). Seems like he had the entire gamut -- blow up couch, blow up bed, portable grill, speakers for music, bug repellent, food, and libations ;-) You will hear everything that is nature at night. I swear I heard a fox howling/barking. All-in-all, it was a cool experience...five days later, still itching from those bites. Oh! There's a water park too...arrive early to get in because they do have a capacity limit.

I also remember having a great time on the lake paddle boating and swimming in the big "L" shaped pool. Fast forward decades later, I have taken a liking to camping. I still consider myself a novice, and over the last 3yrs, I have accumulated some cool stuff. I have an annual camping trip with a large group next month, but I wanted to do a small intimate trip to one of my favorite childhood places. I must say, Lake Fairfax has one big change from when I was a child. It now has a HUGE waterpark that has giganic water slides as soon as you enter. I was a little disappointed to hear from the check-in Park attendant, who had the personality of a disinterested teenager, that the L shaped pool I referenced was no longer there. My picture of laying poolside or chillin in the pool were shattered, because with waterparks, comes tons and tons of young kids.. and honestly, I would just rather not..LOL! Once we made it to our assigned camping lot, I was super pleased at how close we were to the extremely clean rest rooms that were equipped with showers. The camping site was noticeably quiet, almost library quiet, so that suprised me a little. I didn't want to disrupt the flow, so I kept my speaker at a low level. :) All in all, I had a memorable experience at Lake Fairfax Park and I can definitely see myself coming back sometime next Spring/Summer!!
