After a long search I finally found an All Woman's Gym! Absolutely no men around and Absolutely no…read moremean girls! 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!

So glad I found this gym! 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.

I have been to a few gyms in the area (from Stafford to Fairfax) looking for the right place, with…read morethe right trainer, a meal plan that will educate myself about nutrition and help me stay on track; a flexible schedule that can accommodate on the daily to my limited free time (mom of 4 athletes) and most importantly the RIGHT WORKOUTS that I need to accomplish my specific goals, and I must say that I've never felt more satisfied across the board. Edwin, our trainer, does a phenomenal job, knows his stuff, gentle enough to teach you the proper form, but as strong as it gets when pushing you to work your hardest...the best trainer I've had thus far (I'm 40 years old, worked out most of my life). I'm super motivated and excited to see where this journey takes me! This fitness studio "little hidden treasure" is located on Rt. 28 in Manassas very close to Centreville, Fairfax, Woodbridge and only a few miles from 66. I would say... I'm pretty sure once you join you won't want to quit... if you love feeling great and looking good, of course! Oh did I mention that he also offers those famous "6 week challenges"? Best prices, and worth every penny. Highly recommended! Give it a try!!

After researching many personal trainers in the Woodbridge/Manassas area, I stumbled across Ed Wins…read moreFitness. I absolutely LOVE this studio! Both Edwin and Chad are very professional and foster a fun, personable, judgement free environment. I've been working out with Chad, several times a week, for just over a month. He did an initial assessment, assisted me with setting goals and he continues to tailor my workouts to assist me with achieving my goals. For the first time ever, I'm excited about working out!

Justin is great! He spends the time to know me and my goals for exercise. He pays attention to…read morewhere I am and what I can or cannot do and then modifies the activities to help me make my goals.

This is the first time in my life that I actually look forward to working out.

When I returned Justin was extremely attuned to my physical condition, making adjustments as necessary to ensure I was fully capable and to perform the exercises without jeopardizing my health in any way. I'm fully recovered from the cold and actually made progress this month! This is incredible to me! And I give Justin all the credit!

Dropped in because I'm looking for a box when I'm traveling to the area. Really great…read morecommunity--super welcoming and receptive. Good space that's really open. Coaches and athletes all welcomed me and cheered me on. Good programming too, with hard and long metcon on Wednesday's and structured upper/lower body the rest of the week.

Charles was the first personal trainer I ever had that taught me what a personal trainer should be…read more He is dedicated to your health. He is as tough as you need. My butt kicking was different than that of my 10 year old and each other client. He is knowledgeable. I learned safe weight training movement. This has been priceless in staying healthy and strong. He is kind. Charles always asked about the other important things in my life. He was invested in me as a person, so I was invested in his work, even at 5 am;) And finally, Charles knows when it is time to connect to other resources. When I progressed in running, he introduced me to a client who was a runner. I would never have met and joined Capital Area Runners if not for Charles. I will always appreciate Charles and what he did for me as a person, then as an athlete. I would recommend Charles to anyone who is looking for a trainer!
