Was told the sauna would be operational the next day, was hype as its been understandably off for all of the pandemic. When I went to check it was still off and a homeless dude was living inside. Cant say im eager to even use it now without some serious cleaning. This gym is pretty notorious for all spa features and some gym equipment to not be working. No need to drop the dead end email response you drop to everyone, just fix the sauna and clean it please.

One of the best gym I have ever been

Good location, and one of only two 24-hour gyms in Arlington that isnt a Planet Fitness. Would give it five stars, except two things:1. The background music plays way too loud. Most people bring headphones to the gym--the gym background music should never be louder than my headphones.2. There is only one true barbell rack, and one Smith machine. There are a zillion isometric machines and cardio machines and lots of unused floor space--but only one barbell rack is a serious limiting factor if the majority of your workout plan involves weightlifting.

I stopped by this XSport randomly on a whim the other day, as it was close to my work location for the evening, and I figured why not, since I wanted to grab my quick workout.I will say that the location is pretty good, and its in a pretty quiet part of Arlington thats been building up more and more in recent years. Its easy to miss, as its in a little complex with a bunch of other things next to it, and the front sign is very small, but its still fairly easy to find the entrance. Parking is kind of tricky depending on the time of day, but not as bad as other gyms located in a downtown city sort of area. The staff seem pretty nice, and it looks like they have fun, but I feel its often at the expense of the members, meaning it wasnt crazy busy, and they still werent really acknowledging members that entered and left, despite being at the front desk and training counter.First off, this is an XSport EXPRESS. Which means its going to be small, so thats to be expected. But small is an oversimplification. Ive been to the XSport Express location in Woodbridge, but even that location has some modest size to it. At this location, everything feels like its literally RIGHT on top of everything else. Theres a little green, but basically right up against some of the cable machines, and theres barely any walking space between the machines and cardio equipment. I didnt even dare venture into the free weights area, but its hilariously small.The small size is also combined with the fact that SO many members dont re-rack weights and other equipment, i.e., the various handles and attachments for cable machines. A lot of the members seem very self-centered without any regards to how much space theyre actually taking up, and I try to be very conscious and considerate of others when using my lifting space. And then, of course, the member that just hang out taking up workout space/machines just talking. But thats kind of common at most XSport gyms.The equipment they have is pretty decent and standard. A few machines that Id expect to see at XSport missing, but everything there gets the job done well enough, so no complaints honestly in regards to machines and equipment, only the fact that it very much totally folks most of the limited space in the gym.The locker rooms are kind of a joke. I cant speak to the womens locker room, but the mens has two shower stalls, one urinal and one toilet, and very few lockers. Then a lot of people dont even out locks on their lockers, so most of them end up being taken anyway, and Im not really comfortable leaving my stuff out int he open, and I usually always shower and change after my workout. The locker room is also kind of dusty and dirty. I also attribute most of the size issues of the liver to the fact that this gym is just in such a small space. It kind of feels like a sort of high-end hotel or apartment complex gym, but not a space originally intentionally built to be dedicated to a gym.The two stars are really just for having decent equipment and the convenience of location, but overall given the very small size being such an inhibiting factor, I cant put my whole heart behind recommending this gym as your main place of training.

Now open 24/7 again. A really friendly, good, gym. No classes or pool or stream rooms. Very basic. More like the college gym of a very nice University. Quite good personal training. Best prices in the area for the training. No spinning, no yoga, just machines, treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, and free weights.

Yesterday, I cleaned the leg extension machine, sat to work out. The trainer Mike, who was with his client on the other side, came to me and told me to leave. I asked why. He said he was going to use the machine. I said I had been working out around it and there was no one using the machine before I cleaned. He had no care about other guests, only cared about himself.

Xsports allows people coming to the gym with no masks despite what their sign says. This guy sneezed loudly with wide open mouth towards someone. The complaint made to the employees directly. They told him, but allowed him to keep going. He later harassed, aggressively approached to the same customer with no mask, physically assaulted him for complaining, in front of the employees, the management. He was asked to leave, he didnt. The police came for the assault, report filed for court, the guy had fled by then. The employees were nice, but passive. They distanced themselves, didnt take proper actions, didnt follow rules as often. XSports doesnt care about the safety, security of employees, customers.

The staff is excellent here. The space is used wellThe sanitize area is always stocked. Cool with me here

Underrated gym! Wonderful equipment and they enforce a face mask which leaves you feeling safe while working out. Clean and has multiple dumbbells per weight. Not usually too busy either!

If you are on a budget, this is an excellent gym that does the job each day for $10/month. Great facilities and friendly staff but inadequate use of small space. recommend having another row of treadmills in place of the second row (that is largely unused for years) closest to south direction. There are only 4 active treadmills that are constantly used each day and one of them produces a high pitched noise that pierced the ambiance. As well as replacing another less used machine for another squat rack. 60% of the machines inside go unused for years. Another trend in gyms is the loud music/noise even though 70-90%+ of people listen to their own music. This inhibits rests/relaxation of muscles in between sets

Its a great location and maintained satisfactory. 2hr garage parking is great.

In 2020, they closed Xsport Columbia pike location in March, but they have charged for membership fee. They re opened in July but not notified members tru email nor text message. Their respond was how are we gonna notify thousands of members. This is their business model.

I agree with Octavio. So far, there have been 4 days the doors are still chained at 5 am. Today was one of them. They hire youngins to do an adults job. Overall you get what u pay for. Thats why I get there at 5 am. Avoid the immature crowd who dont respect. And now, my time is affected by irresponsible staff. Im sure Ill get a robot reply like others have. Spread the word. We all deal with enough stuff at work...DONT interfere with our ME time.

Great staff. Really friendly people. Only negative is that its quite small! You can adjust to it by going at certain times when its not packed. Cant really complain with the 2 year deal that is offered or even the base monthly rate. Very affordable.

Deja went above and beyond for me today! Not only did we take care of my balance but she helped me research tanning lotions and sold me some! This girl needs a raise!

I had bad experience , when would like to get membership, they were very impressed to set me up.I start working out but I observed team don’t have any customer service , careless. So I decided to cancel my membership throughout I got hard time to get it done. One night , I by stopped to verify my membership, and been told by one of the team I am good to go. I am still get charged.It is just too much going onNo more Xsport anywhere.

Great gym, I was a member since first year they opened. Friendly staff and always great music to boost your workouts!

Walked in and was completely ignored by the front desk staff.Photos on Google are inaccurate. This gym is tiny. Do yourself a favor and drive to the King St. location - the air conditioning is broken there so that’s why I decided to try this location - big mistake. Xsport is losing customers left and right and I’m starting to see why.

Nice gym

This place does not open on time! It’s 5:15am still not open.

Awesome trainers and great experience. The trainers only encourage you to do things which help you meet your fitness goals. Shiv is an outstanding trainer who knows how to change your body. He uses a 3 part approach the targets diet, exercise, and supplements. I saw great results.

They were charging my wife for a monthly training while she did not register for any trainings, I asked them to cancel it and give her a refund, they said okay we will refund her, but they did not cancel the training and they did not give us any refunds.They are scammers, We were contacting the trainer who registered her but there was no response, even we contacted the customer service they were not helpful at all.We had no choice but to contact the bank and get a refund through them. So disappointed.

I first worked here in 2012. Good mix of equipment to get a great all over workout. It is a smaller gym and can get packed quickly. I wish they had more Hammer equipment and upgraded cardio equipment.

My credit card was declined for payment for two months after daughter was born and rather then send me a notice letting me know about the problem instead they terminate my membership??When I go in this week they inform me I have to sign up again and jack my membership price up to 45$ a month from 15$??Way to give a consistent customer the January 1st price increase. Will not be returning again

Drew was awesome I needed a gym to workout while I was in Town. Drew signed me in and helped me settle in and get a good work out. Gym was awesome they have free weights,cardio machines and monkey bars for overhead exercises.

Shiv is my personal trainer for almost 2 years. Great staff and trainers here. Would highly recommend to anyone in any level of weight training, either personal trainer or solo.. great atmosphere

They have a lot of hidden fees that are not communicated. The space is too small (only 1 squat rack), the bathrooms/locker rooms are gross, and ironically they seem over-staffed. Also any call to their customer support is easily a +30 minute wait on hold before speaking to a representative. Worst gym experience by far.

Gym is cool. Staff is nice ... but unfortunately the ladies bathroom is always filthy. Trash is always on the floor, and they always run out of toilet paper. The prices are low... So I guess you get what you pay for? I hope they look into a better cleaning crew. Perhaps the Alexandria location is cleaner.

It’s a nice little gym. Some of the space could be better used I think. The music is a little too loud and it lacks a few pieces of equipment due to the size.

Ive been going to this gym for over a year now.Pros:-cheap. $20/mo and they often offer $0 enrollment-new equipment-clean-free parking-24 hoursCons:-no classes. they used to offer group PT for $20/session but it wasnt popular enough and they canceled it.-no towels so remember to bring your own. they provide towels for the tanning rooms but not for the locker room which is annoying-on the smaller side so January is crowded but by now I have no trouble getting on the machine I want-hot water in the showers only lasts 5 minutes. better hope you dont have long hair!Other reviewers complained about the music and parking. Yes they play music but with my headphones in I dont hear it. I use better ones than the white ipod headphones so maybe thats why? Ive never not been able to park in one of the designated parking spots in the garage, even at 5pm in January.Overall this gym isnt amazing but it has everything you need and is significantly cheaper than most other chain gyms in the area.

New member beware! They have a 30 day money back guarantee but you must do the free session with a trainer within the first 14 days and visit the club at least 9 times. They dont tell you so this way youll know. Fine print!

Picked this gym specifically because they had free child care. A week after signing up they started charging 15 dollars per session for childcare. I wish I would have known that before signing up...

Awesome spot to get a pump, but was a little small and the machine selection was limited. Come when its bit busy and youll be able to super set no problem though

Been going here about a year now. The staff is great, especially the training and fitness staff. As for the music complaint from 2 years ago, its never been loud in my experience. Its rare that its so crowded that I cannot work out, even at the most busy peak times. Its easier to work out at this location than Merrifield or Fair Lakes. Its a great size, and tremendous value for a basic gym without classes or some options at the bigger facilities.

Where do I begin with this nightmare of a place. So many hidden fees they dont tell you about. The initiation cost is pocketed by the employees. The random annual $50 charge is for Maintenance fee when in fact everything in this gym is cracked or broken. Staff is always away or on their phone, the changing room and bathrooms are disgusting. Management needs better training on how to actually run a Gym. Save your money and go to literally any other gym or a Junk yard for free. Staff has no manners what so ever and shamelessly stare at people working out.

STAY AWAY!Signed up with Colin family plan tried to paid to pay 6 months in advance. F up my whole account. waited 30 mins to get in touch with a Human on the their 1-877 number. information given on the phone is completely different from what i was given on sign up day. They made charged of things i was unaware of. i asked them questions on the day of sign up, given false information. NEVER EVER AGAIN

I work out here almost every day. There are no classes but the facilities are new and the equipment is top notch. My trainer, James Harris, is brilliant and so are the other staff and trainers. Love it.

Decent gym with validated parking, always a plus. On the smaller side so best to go in with a plan but maintain the flexibility in your workout that you can grab a machine when its available instead of when it normally might be in your routine.

They just take your money dont trust this gym

24 hour gym with a friendly staff. Very clean and equipment is repaired in a timely manner if it breaks. Much more personal then other gyms. Though it gets crowded during peak hours

During my time I built a good relationship with some of the staff. Others felt like they were too good to be friendly. Gym is too small and is more setup for cardio than a full fitness workout gym. They crammed everything into a small space and is hard to workout in when alot of patrons come in to exercise. Better to go during off peak hours.Some of the trainers use the gym as personal gym time than a place of business. They take up most of the equipment during their workouts and customers have to work around them.Mens bathroom is unsatisfactory at best. It smells of mildew. There shouldnt be carpet in an area where theres a shower. Open the bathroom space to allow for freedom of movement and space to get changed. It is unhealthy and does put customers at risk of fungus infection. I stopped using the locker room area because the smell and health risk.Overall I gave it a 2 because there were certain staff members that were good people. Its better than the Mega store on Leesburg Pike due too cleanliness, functionality, and upkeep. The Leesburg Pike location is poorly ran and maintained. I left there after two weeks of signing up because the place was poorly ran , poorly maintained and the equipment was not kept properly. XSport Fitness honestly could be the best venue for fitness and exercise however the maintenance and management of these locations have to improve tremendously.

Its a small but good gym. Gets crowded at peak times but you can typically still get a good workout in no matter when you go.

Great gym with a good staff. Also had the fortunate experience of working with a very thorough trainer Shiv. provided lots of workouts, nutrition advice etc. well beyond my expectations.

Really cheap, but has everything you need to get a good workout. It has a few bench pressing racks, one power rack, a Smith machine, some cables, and some free weights among other things. It is really small so it can get pretty crowded, but its open 24 hours.

Small space utilized well. New equipment, inexpensive, and open 24-hours. Costs less than a third of Golds Gym or WSC.In short: best gym you will find per dollar.UPDATE: They oversell memberships, gym is nearly useless in peak-hours.

Okay gym but a bit small. Employees are not the nicest. Not the most helpful either. Gym is alright for working out. Good location.

They made it too complicated to cancel the membership and their customer service couldn’t help!! The lady behind the phone give me two options walk to build or send them a letter!

Great value for money, especially if youre an early riser, peak hours can get a little restrictive since theres only two benches and one squat rack.

The Columbia Pike location is small, with only one power rack, two bench presses, no classrooms, and very limited free space. Lots of treadmills and other cardio machines, but it doesnt take many guests to overcrowd this gym. Expect to wait for whatever machine/bench/dumbbell you need. Strict no chalk policy doesnt seem safe. Members may bring a free guest, but they can only come in during the worst hours of the day.On the plus side, its always clean, open 24 hours, and offers a great rate on tanning. Ive rarely seen a busted machine. The membership is very inexpensive, but youll get what you pay for.

Great spot! Its a little compact but efficient.

Really great and friendly staff very helpful when you have a question the inside looks a bit run down but that’s OK everything works very good

Wrote a previous review not so happy. I was charged monthly for my membership after canceling it in person. Guess it didnt go through huh? lol, Well after speaking with customer service they reversed the funds to my card and after a few weeks I saw my refund post. Good thing about this gym is if they make a mistake they will make it right. If I move back in the area I would sign up with this gym again. Thanks Xsport!

Good amount of cardio equipment, wish there was one more bench press.

Gym is always packed. Ok as a last resort. Cancellation is near impossible. Either over the phone or by filling out paperwork in person. Wouldnt recommend.

Great neighborhood gym at a fantastic rate. Gets a bit busy in the afternoons, but thats just proof to my point.

Nice staff and simple gym. Very good for the price

Informative and helpful staff. Little pricey, but overall nice place.

Very clean and helpful staff

Great staff, great location, and you cant beat the rates!

Excellent

Poor management, I have charged twice and they couldnt do nothing about it.

Fine but should have 2 squat racks. 1 is unacceptable.

Bad gym, they dont even have hot water and the sauna isnt even working properly. The bathrooms are always dirty. Dont recommend this gym.

Nice establishment often used by the Fala family.

Say one thing do different thing

They make it almost impossible to cancel your monthly subscription.Youll have to literally call your bank and block Xsport from monthly withdrawals.Horrible.

Showed up waited 20 minutes to talk to a sales person or manager with money in hand ready to sign, he was busy on a personal phone call and the staff was not professional at all. I left, wont be going back. Bathroom was small and grimy as well.

Local fitness chain. Great value for the 24/7 gym facilities.

The gym is a good place to workout, BUT DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THE TRAINERS i dont know about all of them but there is this one short shrimp Shiv, omg what a waste of my damn money. He starts late and ends 5 mins before your time is done just so he can give you a receipt. And as far as the training goes, soooo boring and to be honest you will learn more from watching youtube videos. He was always trying to push the products to me telling me how i needed them but you will get a better price elsewhere. and its funny the dude likes to stare at himself while he talks to you, so weird... i paid in full the first time but i stopped going after the 6.

Absolutely blaring music. Even wearing ear buds, their music just pounds through. Ive called corporate and complained, but nothing has ever happened. This morning, louder than ever.....the speakers were breaking-up it was so loud.

Fine corner gym, but its way overcrowded during peak hours. Doesnt matter what time of year.

Good Gym with a nice staff.

Small space. Pretty bad when the personal trainers look like they need personal trainers.

Great location and facilities ... But too lazy and very unfriendly staff ... Sweat smell almost everywhere ...

I hear other gyms are worse.

Good place for workout.

Can get very crowded but overall great gym.

This place is packed . But I like all the wake out close to my home.

Good environment.

Some machines are in desperate need of maintenance

Very small, sometimes you have to wait on machines, but there are enough treadmills to go around, average smaller type gym

Awesome, I like this gym

The showers have not had hot water for weeks. The same thing happened last year. The employees and mangers do not care.Go up the street to the other location.

Worst costumer service and they are liars,warning

Excellent staff

Good environment

Love it
