Update May 2024: Seven years later and I still love this place. It is my happy place! No matter how I am feeling when I come in for a session, I always feel so great when I leave. My trainer Anthony Paarporn is phenomenal. I am a 67 year old woman and am stronger and fitter than I have been in decades. Today I came in with pain in my groin (I injured it cycling) such that I could not lift my leg. Anthony worked with me carefully, determining exactly what was wrong, and had me doing careful, guided, gentle work which resulted in my leaving the session being able to lift my leg with no pain. I cannot recommend this place enough! Update June 2023 -- This place walks the walk still! Warm, welcoming, professional, personable, and as a result of the high quality personal trainers here, I am a better, healthier, and much stronger person. I adore this place!
Update June 2018 -- I am still enjoying and benefitting from Fusion 360! Everything I wrote a year ago still stands! I love this place and how I am stronger and healthier because of this place.
Fusion 360 is a phenomenal place. First, it is NOT a gym: there are no upfront or monthly fees. It is, instead, more like a training studio in its intimacy and in the individual attention one receives. One pays only for personal training sessions and/or classes. Second, the quality of training is superb. The attention paid to each client is tailored to her or his very specific needs and challenges. Each session is slightly different than previous sessions, presenting new challenges (different exercises, carefully increasing weights and/or reps) thus always making it interesting. The trainers are always diligently watching you, correcting form, motivating you, and often making you laugh. Third, the environment there is completely welcoming, friendly, and inclusive. (Joel (owner and lead trainer), and Sarah (my trainer), take great care to know every client and her or his specific needs. Additionally, the clients reflect this same warmth. Importantly, this is a place for anyone regardless of his or her physical fitness level. I have seen a married couple in their early 70s training with Joel (and very much enjoying it!), as well as several different women in their 20s-30s doing one-on-one boxing session with Joel (and they each are amazing to watch!). For four months now, I have participated in one-on-one personal training sessions, and I have seen a steady increase in my strength, and as a result, an improvement in my balance (one of my challenges). I look forward to every...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreSince my first day at Fusion 360 Fitness in 2022, I've been eager to share my positive experience with the Reston Community. As the manager of Custom Ink, located conveniently in the same plaza, I'd often pass by the gym, noticing the inviting and energetic vibe. Despite this inviting atmosphere, it took a personal health wake-up call before I committed to walk in and sign up. Joining Fusion 360 Fitness turned out to be a pivotal decision, bringing an unexpected joy to my life through its varied and dynamic workout offerings. The gym provides an impressive array of classes ā from high-energy Cardio and Strength Training to innovative TRX and invigorating Cycling. Not to mention, the range of treadmills, weighted routines, and more for those who prefer a more traditional workout.
Topping off the excellent facilities is trainer Joel, whose expertise in fitness shines through with every personalized workout plan he crafts. Tailored to my goals and fitness level, his programs demonstrate a keen focus on proper form and technique, balancing effectiveness and safety in every session. Joelās approach is straightforward and serious, yet his remarkable ability to motivate is deeply inspiring. He transforms tough workout sessions into something invigorating and full of positive energy. His engaging demeanor and heartfelt passion for fitness are truly contagious.
But Fusion 360 Fitness isnāt just about the workouts; itās about the people. The sense of community here is strong and inviting. It represents a refreshing twist in the fitness world ā a place that champions non-toxic masculinity and openness, where everyone, regardless of age or fitness level, feels at home. Joel, along with Anthony and Gloria, has nurtured a culture of camaraderie and mutual respect that turns each visit to the gym into an experience I genuinely look forward to. Hereās to the team at Fusion 360 Fitness for creating a space thatās so much more than a gym ā itās a community where everyone...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreMy doctor strongly urged me to sign up for personal training sessions at Fusion360 as a part of my treatment for depression and anxiety.
I have always hated personal training sessions. I was not looking forward to it at all.
When I first met my very fit personal trainer, Sarah, I took one look at her and thought, "She's gonna make me miserable."
But 2 months later, I've lost 20 pounds, I actually look forward to my personal training sessions 3 times a week, and I feel sooooooo much better not only physically, but mentally.
Sarah has made a priceless difference in my life! She is a very rare combination of uber-professionalism and FUN. Our sessions go SO SO FAST because:
Sarah prepares a personal workout session just for me, and they are completely different every single session. I don't think I've ever done the same exercise twice.
Sarah is not pushy.... she's encouraging. She makes YOU want to push yourself.
Sarah is freaking hilarious, and we laugh the entire session.
Sarah ramps up the intensity of your workouts slowly so that you aren't in a lot of pain afterwards and you never get discouraged.
Sarah can walk on a treadmill and crochet perfectly at the same time. (Just had to throw that in, because I think it's amazing.)
The rest of the crew (Maya, Joel and Gloria) are awesome, but Sarah is my favorite. :)
I'm a 52 year old woman who for the first time in her life actually looks forwards...
