I must say, I am pleasantly surprised! This LA fitness location is by far one of the better locations in the DMV. I stumbled on this gym after stopping to the Springfield Mall to pick up an online order from the nearby Target. Since I was out doing weekend errands anyway and had the gym on my list of "to-do's", I figured why not stop here for a quick workout. From the beginning, I walked in and was immediately greeted by staff. The location was very open and clean, with tons of equipment and exercise machines everywhere. It is split between two levels, with the main entrance including a lounge area and most of the exercise equipment on the second level. Talk about a gym junkie' play ground. This is it all packed in a semi-small floorplan and footprint, but at the same time a well planned-out gym and layout. I consider myself a somewhat heavy lifter (375 lb Bench and up to 80lb Dumbells) and not only did they have all the weights I needed, they had a few surprise things I wasn't expecting such as CrossFit equipment and a well equipped indoor HITT training area....in addition a full basketball court! Another pet peeve of mine is clean locker rooms, a gold star for this location and clean as expected. Oh! And, let's not forget a lap pool for swim enthusiast. In all, you cannot beat this location for all the amenities that they have. Initially, the gym appears small at first glance until walk to the main lookout floor on its lower level. It is here that you can find any and everything you need to have a productive workout and change things up every now and then. The only two drawbacks that I noticed about this gym was the broken sauna and the parking which can get tight....because it is shared with the mall parking. If only I lived closer, this would definitely be my gym!

The best La fitness compared to other locations like Glebe and King St. Started coming here in April, I literally drive here from Arlington daily because it’s worth it. From the layout to the working equipment, no broken escalators for months lol The staff is probably a good reason why I show up, they actually build rapport with clients, remember you by your name, always greet you without miss. Abdul from front desk, definitely the most professional, upbeat and outgoing staff member. Always ready to help with any questions and account details.

overall, it’s a decent gym. The variety of equipment, and the group fitness classes are a great way to stay motivated. The location is convenient, and having amenities like the basketball, pool and sauna is definitely a plus. Compared to other locations like Fairfax, Merrifield, and Alexandria, I find this one to be better in terms of space, variety of equipment, and overall convenience. That said, there are areas for improvement. The cleanliness of certain spaces, like the locker rooms and bathrooms, could be better maintained, and I’ve noticed lot of issues with cardio equipments or facility maintenance. If they can address these concerns, it would make the experience much better. All in all, it’s a solid gym with good potential, but it needs more consistent upkeep to truly stand out.

The transparency with the pool situation is a disgrace and why this gym gets one star from me. The actual equipment of the gym is pretty good, but the pool has me riled up. Here is how it goes. The pool looks clean and ready for use but the gym puts up a sign that reads it "will be temporarily shut down for repairs and maintenance." Okay, this happens. I ask the front desk when the repairs and maintenance might be fixed? The employee at the front desk has no clear answer but the manager overhears us and tells me it is something LA Fitness is working on with their lawyers and Fairfax County because a new county ordinance came out closing pools without lifeguards, which LA Fitness does not have. The lifeguard thing makes sense but why advertise this as repairs and maintenance? So I hop on the Internet and it takes me to subreddit where customers have heard the same thing and called the Fairfax County Health Commission. It was written on Reddit the county said this was not their doing. To confirm, I called myself and Fairfax County verified they have been getting a lot of calls on this very situation and that they have nothing to do with LA Fitness closing its pool. Paying gym members should expect better treatment from their memberships, especially one as costly as here. This just seems like another way to cheap out. So, way to go. Add Springfield to the list along with the Fairfax and Merrifield LA Fitness branches that have closed their pools but kept the prices the same. What a joke.

Sauna never works. They are quick to take $50 every month and you’re lucky if the sauna works for 1 day. Some people only go there because they have a sauna, with no sauna shoukd of just went with planet fitness.
