The most dedicated gym in the DMV area!! If you’re looking for a space that’ll motivate you to reach your goals, tap in. If you need a trainer who is consistent, accountable, super friendly, emphasizes great form during sets, & truly transforms your body, ASK FOR VAUGHN!!!

My first day going to the gym I was nervous because I’ve never worked out at a gym before. BUT when I got in there I said oh YES I knew I made the right decision coming I was excited. Meeting Manny, Rob & the team it felt like family we all connected right away and we are all supportive of each other. It’s always a great time going to the gym we work hard and we love our results. The BEST GYM in the DMV with AMAZING TRAINERS!

Training with Coach Manny at DC Fit was a great experience from start to finish. His personalized approach and deep knowledge of fitness tailored each session perfectly to my goals and abilities. Coach Manny's encouragement and expertise pushed me to achieve more than I thought possible, all while ensuring proper form and technique. The facilities were excellent, providing a comfortable and clean atmosphere. I not only reached my fitness goals (gain muscle, get stronger and learn proper form and technique) but also gained invaluable knowledge that will benefit me LONG TERM. If you're looking for a motivating coach who delivers results, I highly recommend Coach Manny and DC Fit.

I absolutely love my DCFit family. I’ve trained here for a little over 4 months, and the energy is amazing. DCFit are a group of trainers located inside Total Source Fitness at Union Market. Each of the DCFit trainers are knowledgeable and kind, and they do a great job of making clients feel welcomed.

I train with Vaughn, and when I say he’s the best I mean it. When I started training with him I’d come off a foot injury and had limited mobility/flexion from my ankle down. He’s done so well with rehabbing my foot that I stopped going to PT. He starts you with a base workout plan, but as he gets to know you and you him, he tweaks your program for you specifically. I love that bc it’s small group training, but still client specific. I train with up to 5 ppl at a time, and we’re never doing to the same thing.

Total Source (the gym) is HUGE! They have a lot of equipment and pretty much anything you’d need to hit your fitness goals. Some of the machines are older, but I’ve noticed improvements in the short time I’ve been there. I can appreciate it. And the staff at the gym are also friendly. Now, this is a proper box gym in that summer time is HOT. Bring your water and towel bc you will sweat out every ounce of water you’ve had that day.

I began working with Coach Manny at the beginning of March 2024; I signed up for the 5am bootcamp class. I walked in with no expectations & the mindset that no way I would succeed at having wake up that early . I am now on my 3rd month & look forward to 5am’s on MWF- that is because Coach Manny provides a safe, encouraging & motivating atmosphere. You feel heard, seen & are held accountable. The workouts are tailored for your needs but more importantly it’s a space for you to be your authentic self as you navigate accomplishing your goals. I have been to costlesssss of work out places & I have ever maintained consistency- I now realize working out is so much more than just the exercise itself ; the whole environment & approach is just as important. Needless to say, working with Coach Manny has been life changing , not to mention my results are 🔥🔥🔥

I’ve been training w/Michale over the past month. He’s been great. I have a couple of old injuries that he’s been able to help me with by leveraging some physical therapy experience. I have a long way to go before I’ll feel comfortable, but I trust he’ll get me there.

The team at DC fit is welcoming and encouraging every day and every time you come in. There is great camaraderie within the community. Everyone encourages each other no matter what your level. When choosing DC fit this was the most important thing to me as I can “work out” at any gym. I come in and work with Manny to reach my own personal goals of what I call “every day strength”, we laugh about it. Manny understands that I want to be able to do everything I do today as I continue to age and it’s important to me to maintain my strength, balance and flexibility. We work on these goals and he constantly encourages me and pushes me to be my best. BUT remember YOU have to do the work, not giving your best only hurts your goals. If you’re looking for a great place to work out and make yourself fit so that you can live a better life , this is a place to be.

I have been to multiple gyms in the DC and northern VA area, and DC Fit at Union Market is hands down my favorite. It’s such a motivating place to be. The owner Manny has created a true community of strong, uplifting people of all ages. I’m always greeted warmly and surrounded by encouraging individuals. My personal trainer there, Vaughn, is exceptional. I’ve trained with him for 2+ years now. He helped me get my strength and body back on track after having my third baby, and continues to help me reach new goals. I’m picky about where I spend my time, money and energy. I happily wake up early to get time in at DC Fit. 10/10 would recommend!

It’s everything you need in a gym when you’re ready put in work. For some reason it gives old school vibes and reminds me that when you’re ready to grind, you lose the excuses. The energy from the front desk & trainers is great - parking is always available, and a quick post workout trot over to the marketplace is a cherry on top!

Coach Johnny helped jumpstart my heavy lifting routine before the end of 2023. Initially, I planned to train with him at DC Fit for six months, but the commute from NW to NE wasn’t sustainable for me. But, bay bee - can we talk about my one-month gains, real quick? Coach Johnny designed these fun heavy lifting circuits that kept your mind and muscles engaged. Within two weeks, I went from benching the 45lbs bar to around 80lbs (squeals in piglet!!) The equipment at DC Fit was foreign to me, and within a month, I learned that the lat pulldown machine has at least 2 different hand-grip attachments that target different muscles. He.Will.Have.You.Use.All. (gird yourself) On my own, I would not have been able to adjust them or even know what they were for. Fortunately, Coach Johnny’s experience in the gym, and on the field (former athlete,) made DC Fit’s intimidating “Brolic Bro” atmosphere a playful space for an emerging Muscle Mami. Exactly the hard launch I needed for 2024. I hate that DC traffic interrupted our training plan. Definitely worth the investment. I highly recommend. #GetSwole

I had a wonderful experience that has not only physically improved my quality of life but mentally and spiritually as well. I am so glad I used their services when I did. I can now can function comfortably in the gym and I know my way around the equipment like I never did before! I worked with Ri and every day I looked forward to my workouts and her encouraging guidance. I Will definitely visit them again for training when I’m in the DMV area.

DC Fit is the place that will help you reach your goals.
I arrived at DC Fit with apprehension as I didn't know what to expect. I was assigned to Coach Rob. He’s an excellent trainer and everything he teaches me is done with patience and attentiveness. His approach to training is effective and he participates in the sessions which make them interactive and fun. And when the reps get tough, he encourages you with his motivational speeches!

Yo. These Kings are doing great work here. Very intimate spacing, with the choice of course of private or group sessions. Coach Manny adding some amazing trainers to the success to this gym & trainers. Ex. Johnny. Johnny had me feeling like what I saw myself. 2024 well be definitely different. One AMAZING noteworthy statement to document is that, they will work with you. I recently lost my job, and coach manny... spirits are aligned godly just let me say that!

Looking for a gym, convenient parking, convenient timing & gym and dedicated trainers I do recommend them.

I’ve worked at DC Fit with Manny for quite a while now. The facility is great and Manny is the best trainer you’ll ever have. He understood I wasn’t already in shape and didn’t start out by ‘proving’ that to me…his goal was to get me in shape. Between nutrition changes and working out regularly with Manny, I’ve lost 140 lbs. Speaks for itself. Manny is a fantastic trainer and DC Fit is an excellent venue.

I started up with DC Fit at Union back in October because it’s 5 minutes from my house, I’ve stayed because my trainer is an absolute treasure! Coach Ri is truly one of the few people who can make waking up and working out (in the winter) before the sun is fully up the highlight of my day!! She is full of energy, and consistently challenges me to give it my all. Proud of my results so far and excited to see where this journey were on takes us.

Overall my experience has been extremely positive. I started working out in September after being out of the gym and workout regimen for 3 years. My goal is to get back in shape, lose some pounds, tone and strength training. When I reached out to Manny, who I had trained with for 6 years, I found out that he was now at DC Fit. I have to admit I was a little hesitant about driving from MD into DC but I knew that Manny wouldn’t steer me wrong. DC Fit has all of the equipment that you would expect or need in a gym to get a good workout. The staff and personal trainers are awesome!! Polite, helpful and they all present an inviting environment.

My main objective for joining the gym was to start training again with Manny. The results that I achieved when training with him in the past were awesome. Although the Pandemic stopped me from going to the gym, I still worked out at home and Manny checked in on me, Why? Because that’s the kind of person he is, someone with a big heart who cares about the people he trains and their overall health and well being. Since getting back into the gym with Manny, I have started to rebuild and gain strength and endurance. I can say that it was the best decision I could have made.
