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.

Generally clean, decent array of equipment and amenities, and usually friendly staff. Over time, I did think sometimes equipment took a bit long to repair, and the lack of simple basics like paper towels in the bathroom was something I wished they had. I also just found myself having to wait on equipment way too frequently, even when the gym wasn't that crowded because they only have one version of some machines and they have a much older crowd at this gym that likes to just sit there talking or scrolling their phones and doesn't seem very serious about working out. Having to navigate the One Loudoun traffic and parking garages also felt like a chore sometimes. At the end of the day, if this gym were a little cheaper I might have considered renewing after my initial term. But it's 1:1 the same cost as the brand new OneLife in Ashburn that has way more equipment + dozens of locations, open space, aquatics, recovery room with compression, red light, and hydromassage, towels included, and more, with a convenient parking lot only one exit farther down Route 7 to boot. I've actually seen 20+ regulars I knew from TFE now working out at OneLife so I think most of the serious gymrats have picked up on the fact they can get more for their money and jumped ship. Farewell, TFE. You were a good gym, I'll always cherish our times together.

If you aren't in shape, don't be afraid. The instructors are good about showing you how to adapt until you are strong enough to do something. So much of the foot and leg work will strengthen tiny muscles that prevent instability and injuries--it's a must for women of a certain age. It can seem like it's hard to book classes when you first use the app, but the waitlist really does get you in most of the time. I have a complicated membership because it's split with an incentive from my insurance company, but each month the team irons it out for me and I get all my classes in. I have also asked about COVID protocols and their upgraded HVAC system, daily fogging, and cleaning after each class has kept me coming back without a problem. I just wish a few classes were held on weekend afternoons because I have never gotten into a weekend morning class. There's high demand.

If you need to contact them via email good luck. They have yet to reply to an email and the front desk can never answer a question when you call - they say they will have someone call you back and they don't. I once had a class canceled and I was not alerted until I actually showed up. Infuriating. Worst customer service - go somewhere else if you want to be treated like a paying customer.

I train with Kevin sometimes and love working with him. I actually feel like he knows what he's talking about, instead of most trainers that just parrot phrases at you. He pushes me, but not so hard that it's discouraging and makes me hate him - just enough that makes me feel like I got a good workout without wanting to die. 10/10 best gym ever!

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!

So, I got recommended by a friend who goes to OTF -- no idea which studio he attends but that's def a talking point imo. FNT (for next time) and all dat. I a new member and been going for a week or two by now. I joined when they had that March promo going on. Promo sux TBH, but workout doesn't so. It's pretty solid / decent actually. One minus, they messed up setting up my profile (adding my HR beats thingy and made a typo on my e-mail which caused there to be a dupe one or something). Also price is a minus, they charge me way too much. Like bro I'm not made of money, I'm just a poor boy trying to lose some fat here. Lastly and a pain point of mine, none of the trainers stop you when you're doing something flagrantly stupid. I'm talking bursting past max heart rate and hovering around 200 BPM, which is dangerous I've recently learned. Now I'm going to take it easy and go 6-8 max on the treadmill, but a bummer as I wish the trainers (or anyone there) would start yelling and maybe slap some sense into you when they see something like that. Anyway, cool story of mine. I hope to stick around, I like losing calories and training weights, trainers are pretty decent, approachable and most are even nice, app is great all around no problems so far. High ten, OTF! Up high! Heck yeah. -- UPDATE (9/25/23): Updating my review to 3-stars because I've struggled with getting along with other members here, and I have yet to make a single acquaintance or friend here. Also, front desk people are not really kind to me and pointedly avoid my eyes at times. There is also something to be said about waitlists for a class. I booked a class last minute bc I was busy with an unavoidable chore, and spent 20 min. driving to the studio. Only to be told "don't procrastinate, book earlier" by head coach here, in response to the fact that the 20 min. drive was a waste of my time (and gas). This response irks me as well as the fact that I decided to "stick it to them" and proceeded to last-minute book the next class more than one hour later at 7pm at the South Riding location, and attended class that day there. Seriously, waitlists at this (the Ashburn) studio are brutal and just the worst. Coaches are uncompromising and never kind to me, and other members largely ignore me as a whole. If I can make at least one acquaintance I can consider bumping up the rating to a 5-star, but honestly I don't see that happening anytime soon, and so the rating sticks and the review stands as it is for now. UPDATE (10/31/23): it's gotten consistently better I feel, still have no friends at OTF and don't really know anyone at the work outs, but there was at least one day where I felt good and everyone was nice to me. Then today, last day of Hell Week -- also Halloween -- I dressed up in costume, and even just two people, the coach and studio manager, commented on it. None of the members did, then again everyone's a stranger so it's hard to build rapport. Anyway, updating my review to 4-star to be fair because I have had a pleasant experience with Ashburn as my home studio so far.
