Best Gym near Potomac, Maryland

Almost two years ago I became a member of a Life Time facility located on Seven Locks in Potomac, Maryland. With the guidance and help of the incredible personal trainers, I was accomplishing my health and fitness resolutions. Several weeks ago, I stepped into a renovated Life Time Potomac facility. I was impressed by the beautiful and tasteful changes in the appearance of rooms on the main floor. This is a demonstration of the staff's dedication to the user experience. The improved and new equipment, programs, and other offerings will attract more guests and keep current members interested in coming back. Some of the empty areas were transformed into places of multiple activities. A welcoming atmosphere with friendly and experienced staff creates a great place for physical activities and relaxation. Newly installed places for hydromassage provide additional benefits and comfort for the users.

Nice people but exceptionally expensive. I don't recommend this joint for anybody. It's just a gym not a fancy country club. For that price it should include swimming, which it doesn't, and access to a nice golf course. It's got 100 pieces of equipment that are all nice but I only use about five of them at each visit. Give me a break!

Love this gym went here for years. Nice cafe, nice workers, very good gym overall. A lot of high schoolers though. Here’s some old pics of what inside looks like but it’s mostly me posing lol. To be completely honest I would come back here and recommend it even more if this place was 24/7 and I could come whenever and use the hot tub after a workout at 1am. That was your selling point for me last time and I promise if you did that it would set you out compared to the rest of gyms in area.

State-of-the-art equipment, professional trainers with a wide selection of classes, clean locker room with plenty of space. I don’t mind the money because it’s all 100% worth it for you. It’s consistently hassle free and the members are not snooty.

This is a really great gym. I was concerned about the price, but after doing the 1 day guest pass, I now believe this place is worth the $139/month. They have about a dozen power racks with Olympic bar sets, barbells up to 120 lbs, dozens and dozens of cardio machines and an extremely nice locker room with great showers, towels and a nice spa included.

Feel sad to share this. Big fan of OTF sadly this location has gone downhill. Changed my membership location, do not sign up here. I hate posting negative reviews but it’s disappointing and not normal OTF experience so want to warn others.

This gym is the nastiest OTF I’ve ever stepped foot in. The first time a came I realized the shower/dressing room were very dirty and unsanitary, so I decided to never workout at this location before work. Today I went if realized the studio walls had thick nasty dusty dirt on them. Ppl pay a lot of money for OTF memberships, the least they can do is provide a clean space.

The workouts are amazing and really push you cardio-wise and you truly see the results over time. The coaches are so energetic, supportive and encouraging and help u correct your form if needed to get the best out of your workout. The studio staff is so welcoming and they always know your name. you feel right at home the moment you walk in.

Unfortunately had a terrible experience trying out this location, the person at the front desk (Alfonso) was not forthcoming and wasted my time. He had me fill out an intake for a class that he has no intention on allowing me to take the class because I arrived at 9:47 for a 10 am class. I was told I needed to meet with the coach in order to take the class even though I have taken several orange theory classes before at another location. Alfonso also told us we would be able to speak to the coach about the situation but then never allowed us to speak to them. Just very disappointing. I just appreciate honesty, if I wasn’t going to allowed to take he class they should’ve said that at the door rather than wasting my time filling out a form, and he should’ve never told us we could talk to the coach if that wasn’t the case. I understand I wasn’t 30 minutes early but I drove from Crofton Maryland and it took a hour vs the 45 min it normally takes to get to this area.

I love the coaches! They really push you to work out hard! The class goes by so fast. I like that you go at your own pace and the heart rate monitors really help to make sure you get a good workout.

Pure Barre in Potomac is just great! Erin and her instructors make you feel like you’re part of a community and family! The classes are challenging and every one is different! Excellent work out for any age!

I am so glad I found Pure Barre Potomac. After doing nothing for about 15 months because of COVID I had lost strength and muscle tone. But after a few weeks of taking pure barre classes I saw a noticeable improvement in both. It's a hard workout, to be sure. But it's also fun and sooo effective. The studio is spotlessly clean. All of the instructors are professional, knowledgeable and encouraging. The people that workout are also great. I highly recommend Pure Barre Potomac.

Best group exercise I’ve ever done. Studio is meticulously clean. Class size is small. Instructors really help make the most of every move without killing you. You won’t believe how strong you will be and it feels great! People are very friendly and there is a wide age range. Come join the fun!

Love Pure Barre in Potomac! Nice environment, knowledgeable instructors and great programs. As a beginner, I learn something new every single class. The attention and tips from all the instructors are extremely helpful.

I love PB bc it’s challenging, fast-paced and the music keeps you motivated. The instructors at PB Potomac are professional, knowledgeable and fun. They are building a great community which I am grateful to be a part of🙏🏼 AND the results of attending consistent classic and reform classes are ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, especially if you’re fighting gravity!

Looks clean and maintained well

Signing up with Find Your Grit was one of the best things I have ever done! I have worked out with many personal trainers in the past, but Grant is on a different level when it comes to professionalism and commitment. He is very motivating and encouraging and has a set plan to help me achieve my goals. I’m finally seeing improvements in my fitness and wellness and noticed a positive change in my appearance. What sets him apart from other trainers is his vast knowledge of his profession and how he thoroughly explains each exercise and how I could benefit from each exercise long term. Not to mention, how he helped me to cope with postpartum depression and recover from a major surgery. His positive energy and enthusiasm make working out fun and enjoyable. I leave each session feeling exhilarated and energized. He’s just so awesome!

I highly recommend Find your grit, it was truly life changing for me and my entire family. After having two children and just developing unhealthy eating habits and lacking consistent exercise routines, I by luck stumbled upon Grant Taylor who not only helped me lose weight he helped me for the first time enjoy building healthy habits that I can maintain for rest of my life. He is truly a kind and one of a kind human being, always showing me I can do things I never thought I would be able to do. I have so much more confidence and I no longer have the daily aches and pains I did prior to meeting him. Because of my previous of being a dentist I would constantly have back and neck pain. He designed specific exercises for me to strengthen my muscles and I’m happy to say I have not felt any more pain since I have been training with him. He set up a diet plan for me that not only made things extremely easy to follow, it saw results immediately. I cannot say enough good things about Grant, if you are wanting to make a change to a healthier lifestyle that is long term and you feel like it’s overwhelming and you do not know where to start I promise you making a call to Grant will change your life and you will never look back. He makes everything so much easier for you, all you have to do is show up! My one hour sessions are like therapy he’s kind, funny and makes that hour fly by and when it’s over I have never gotten a better work out in my life. He makes it that fun and easy! I have referred so many of my friends and family and they all feel the same way. I just want to get the word out to anyone who needs a change and wants to truly make a change to a healthier and happier life….call find your grit invest in yourself and you won’t ever regret it!

Find your grit studio has truly been life changing . Grant has truly impacted my life in a positive way.His knowledge about maintaining good health, physically and mentally. In addition to nutrition plan . He is professional. He has pushed me to reach my full fitness potential and stay consistently with my fitness journey.

I’ve been to many gyms such as the group HIIT classes, yoga, Pilates, etc. In those small classes I felt like I had to keep up with the speed of the class and do generic workouts that didn’t quite fit for me. As a result, I developed a pain in my knee that got worse with every workout and has lingered for years. After going to Grant, he took the time to customize my workouts to alleviate that knee pain. He went the extra mile to also help remove my pain through “physical therapy”. Needless to say, my knee has gotten stronger and my pain has pretty much subsided and gone away! In the past, I worked out at gyms and had a goal in mind, but never truly reached it. I’ve always wanted to get stronger while gaining lean muscle. As much as I worked out, I never really got there or understood how to get there. With Grant, I established a goal with him and he helped customize my workouts, challenge my limits, as well as provide guidance to track and change the way I eat to effectively lose weight in a healthy and productive way. Within a month, I saw results that I never saw before! I’ve gotten stronger, developed lean muscle while losing weight in a healthy way! I feel better and definitely on my way to achieving the goal I had in mind that has always seemed impossible. I am also the type that gets bored of routines and like to mix things up. Grant keeps the workouts fresh and incorporates boxing and mixed martial arts training which makes it challenging but fun. Because I enjoyed his personal workouts so much, I signed up my mom (who is over 70) because I wanted her to active and healthy. Being a lot older, Grant customized her workouts too but also challenged her as well and I’ve seen her do things that has surprised me. She loves the workouts and that gives her something to be proud about as well as keep her healthy and strong for our family. Overall, I cannot recommend Find Your Grit enough and with Grant, you get the BEST trainer who cares about your fitness journey, recommends what you need to eat to be healthy, creates dynamic workouts that is exciting and fresh, and also serves as a physical therapist to rehab any issues you have. If you are looking for a personal trainer, look no further!

Studio is clean, workouts are fun, and Grant is a beast of a trainer. Highly recommend him wether you are starting your workout journey or far into it.
