Community: 5 Instructors: 5…read moreWorkouts: 5 Communication: 4.5 My 6 week challenge ended this week and overall I really enjoyed the experience. FLMD popped up on my Instagram timeline as a free 6 week challenge - so bet I was there. There is a consultation, weigh in, and tour. I met with Nevie the gym owner who explained that the challenge is free after you invest in yourself for an undisclosed about. You meet the challenge and you get your money back. I didn't have anything to lose so I joined. I must admit that Nevie worked to figure out why I was not getting the weekly emails and meal plans. So if joined through any META platform (Instagram/Facebook) the emails will be sent to that registered email address. Things that were not transparent to me were: the class schedule not being readily available, the link to view the workouts online so I could join from home, who I should report my weekly weight. KEY TAKE AWAYS: I lost 7lbs my first week!! Drop in classes are $30

I have lost 10 lbs, inches upon inches, and let's not forget about that good ole' fat loss! I am fitting into clothes that were pushed into the back of the closet, my energy level is up, and I have gained a true sense of accountability on myself! I don't look for someone else to hold me accountable I am doing that on my own now. Every single day of the challenge, our awesome instructor Nevie sends you daily affirmations filled with tips that will help you to keep pushing. We also receive a weekly meal plan and recipe guide that has been instrumental in helping me stay on track. I have found my "hobby" and the journey is just getting started lol... if you are looking for a workout that challenges you; a tribe of women that encourage and support you; and a morning or evening of just fun and laughs while working out... then you need to run and sign up with Fit Like Me Divas in Crofton, MD.

I wasn't disciplined and didn't sign up until October. Easily the best decision I made. They moved to a bigger location in Forestville and the energy is still amazing!! I love it here because 1 It's black and women-owned I mean I was sold from knowing that! You feel a sense of belonging and the community they have build feels so genuine. The owner is also a gem and she's truly goals!! Being a woman you can feel so intimated and uncomfortable going to the normal local gyms in the area, but you don't have to worry about that feeling anymore at HFF! At first I was a bit intimated, but once I got into a groove it has been a great journey so far. I'm on my second month and I'm glad to be a part of the HFF family! The trainers don't play and they really push your limits! I'm so glad I joined and I do highly recommend to anyone looking for a new gym that really cares about your goals to attend an intro class and give it a shot!!!!

Trainers that care about getting you to your goals!…read more I've been a lifelong on/off gym member and never could really follow through. 10 months ago I joined Elite Technique and its the first time I've gotten real results. It's because the trainers are motivational and really keep you accountable. Coach Nigel is super responsive and really pushes me to the next level. Through the highs and lows, he really adapts our training to match me. The community is super fun too-- Katrina, Coach Gary, Yaire, Gabe all bring such good energy. The fitcamps on Saturday's are a lot of fun and help keep you in the right mindset through the weekends and keeps you motivated. Highly recommend!

I found the organization on Yelp and went to the @elite_technique instagram website and was immediately amazed by the results being shown. This was all I needed to see to convince me that this was place that I needed to join. I contacted Elite Technique via Yelp to establish my membership, in addition to asking any other pertinent questions and obtaining necessary details. You have the option of going to five days a week and an extra day of Saturday Morning Bootcamp is included. The sessions are normally thirty minutes (more so HIIT style) workouts that consists of specific plans for your specific goal. Elite Technique also provides meal plans, in which you can reach out to your trainer for motivation in remaining consistent. Each trainer is assigned one to two clients per session to ensure Social Distancing guidelines are followed. Everyone in the gym must also bring a large towel to cover equipment, in addition to wearing gloves that cover your entire hand. Elite Technique is constantly being cleaned by the trainers with disinfectant wipes/spray during and after the use of equipment. I was assigned Miguel as a trainer. Miguel pushes me and I really appreciate him for that. To be honest, all of the trainers are very friendly and motivating. Deciding to attend Elite Technique will be an amazing choice for anyone that needs assistance on their fitness journey.

From the time you walk into the door you are greeted with a smile. from whoever is sitting at the front desk. It is amazing how they remember EVERYBODY's name!!! The coordination for the Largo facility Ms.Cathy Cloud is one of a kind. Always has a smile (a genuine one at that), & a kind word.

Without the staff at Cloud 10 Transformations, none of that would have been possible. Their consistent encouragement, as well as that of fellow challengers and members is what kept me going and started me off on my fitness journey. Their flexible schedule accommodated my schedule and allowed me to work out at my convenience. Their FTDI meal plan not only taught me balance and portion control but also will power as I was unable to eat the things that I love. This allowed me to change my view of food and relieve me of my dependency on it. Though this is only the beginning, I thank Cloud 10 for giving me a framework that I can follow throughout the rest of my journey.
