My experience with Capacity and Hugh is a 10/10! I had a friend who was/is doing their group classes and he spoke highly of the gym, so I schedule a consultation with Hugh and we went over all the membership options. This was a few months after I lost my dad, and I was really looking for structure and 1:1 coaching to get my nutrition and workouts back on track so I could handle my stress better. Hugh helped me through his 12 week program and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He pushes me in our personal training sessions, checks-in with me throughout my week, gave me a solid and realistic meal plan to follow, and an awesome habit tracker that we would go over on 1:1 zoom calls. After I completed the 12 weeks, I am still doing 1:1 training with Hugh because I’m the strongest I’ve been in 15 years since being a college athlete, and since getting healthier I have been able to minimize the stress in my life. Hugh is a great guy all around and I’m glad I reached out for my initial consultation.

I found Capacity and started training with Chris in mid-June, and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my health and fitness. After years of trying to get fit on my own with little to no results, working with Chris has completely transformed not just my body, but my mindset around working out and living well.
What’s amazed me most is how the changes to my daily routine have been minimal, yet the results have been incredibly real and sustainable. Under Chris’s expert guidance, I’ve lost body fat and gained strength I never thought possible. His approach is supportive, knowledgeable, and tailored to what works best for me.
I’m only 4.5 months in, and I’m already thrilled with how I look and feel. I’m so grateful I found Capacity and started this journey. Can’t wait to see how much stronger I’ll become as we head into 2026!

The coaches are knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly care about helping you reach your goals, whether it’s building strength, improving endurance, or focusing on nutrition. The workouts are challenging but always fun, and the community vibe makes you feel instantly at home. I love seeing how this space empowers people to live healthier, stronger lives. As a local realtor, I’m proud to recommend Capacity Fitness to anyone looking for a gym that’s more than just a workout, it’s a community. 💪🥗✨

I'm not one to write reviews, but my experience with Capacity Fitness deserves a shoutout. Like many, I struggled with gym consistency and knew I needed accountability. My first meeting with Hugh was welcoming, and he crafted a personalized plan to ease me back into fitness while keeping me on track. Hugh's encouragement and expertise made every step motivating, and he held me accountable without fail. I started hoping to lose a few pounds and feel better, but I gained lifelong skills that transformed how I approach fitness. Highly recommend Capacity Fitness and Hugh for anyone looking to make lasting changes!

Capacity Fitness has truly strengthened and transformed my life, both physically and mentally. The programs here go beyond just building muscle. They focus on the deeper reasons behind why we choose to make a change in the first place. Working with Hugh gave me the confidence and motivation to push harder, lift heavier, and feel genuinely good in the gym. The community at Capacity is always welcoming and supportive, and every trainer brings their own energy and joy to each class. I completed the 12-week transformation program and would recommend it to anyone looking to improve their fitness or make real progress in their journey.

I signed up for Hugh’s 12 week transformation program with absolutely no experience in the gym, and Hugh made everything so easy and much less intimidating! Now nearly 6 months later I’m comfortable with weightlifting, and the diet and exercise habits I worked on with Hugh have just become normal routine. And I’ve enjoyed working out at Capacity so much that I’m continuing to train with Hugh beyond the 12 week program! Hugh has been such a great personal trainer - he’s super encouraging but also holds you accountable, and has been very flexible with my busy schedule. He’s made working out a fun lifestyle and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer for any level of fitness and experience!

5 stars aren’t enough for what I consider to be a hidden gem in Baltimore City. I have gone to all kinds of gyms from Equinox to Planet Fitness, cross fitness to F45, trying to find the right balance of access to workout equipment and coach-guided exercises. Capacity has by far been the best experience and it shows in my results. The 1-on-1 sessions are personalized to your specific needs and the coaches pay close attention to your progress and any challenging areas to adjust accordingly. The group classes are KILLER. The best workouts I’ve ever been through in terms of pushing me to new limits and seeing those results. I had no idea the impact that having the right people beside me working out would have on my performance. The motivation and support that comes from not only the coaches but also the other members has 100% pushed me to do better. To top it all off, the gym is in a perfect location on the water with easy parking and huge doors that open up to let us look at the water while the workouts kick our butt. I recommend everyone give it a try if you’re looking for a better fitness experience or you’ve plateaued with your results. You won’t regret it.

I have been training with Coach Hugh for a few years and it has been a wonderful experience. Before starting at Capacity, I hadn’t spent much time in the gym, so I was scared and intimidated to even begin. But I was quickly won over by the welcoming vibe. People here are at all skill levels, everyone shows up and works hard, but it doesn’t feel like a competition. I appreciate that Hugh explains the workout and helps me track and celebrate my progress. The workouts feel fun and I always leave feeling accomplished. Hugh has provided encouragement and helped me stay accountable to myself, and coached me to a level of fitness I never thought was possible!

As a first time mom with a very large baby my postpartum body was in a constant state of distress. Sleeping every night with a heating pad on my back, handing my son over to my husband to walk up flights of stairs was the norm. No matter how much cardio I was getting in during the days, I wasn't losing any weight.
Six months ago, I began personal training with Hugh at Capacity. From the first session, I felt like he was meeting me where I was. He was easy to talk to and listened to my concerns -most of which involved me being nervous to injure myself.
Over these past months, Hugh has continued to individualize plans for me, taught me the power of consistency and always inspires me to try to lift a little more weight. On days that my body isn't feeling the best, Hugh offers me modifications and more time for stretching.
I have learned proper form, lost weight and strengthened my entire body but most importantly I lift my kid up with ease now. I am not hurting every day and I have so much more energy to give to my family. I recommend Hugh to any new moms or anyone who wants to get back to feeling like themselves.

Hugh is one of the most upbeat, thoughtful, and genuinely encouraging people I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I worked with him for several months and saw firsthand the care he takes with each person he coaches. We met weekly and I left each meeting feeling energized and ready to tackle the week ahead. In addition to helping me lock in specific habits related to my health, checking on me on a regular basis, and holding me accountable when life was busy, he took the time to listen so we could jointly uncover the things that were holding me back. Rarely have I seen someone be so excited for someone else’s wins and perseverance. Hugh is incredibly warm, supportive, and kind: three breaths of fresh air in the coaching space. If you’re trying to dial in your life, Coach Hugh is your guy!

Such a great gym! It’s been 4 or 5 months since starting up with Capacity Fitness. Although you can pay per class, I went the membership route from the beginning and it has been totally worth it. Morning and evening classes as well as a Saturday morning class to start your weekend off right. The classes are challenging for all levels and the coaches are accommodating to people like me who had no training with weight lifting before coming. They have even worked with me on a shoulder issue I have been dealing with by suggesting work out alternatives when needed and strengthening tips to help the shoulder. I wish the gym were closer to where I live but to me it’s well worth the travel from the other side of town.

I love Hugh! He was my first and only phone call for personal training in Baltimore. He is totally dedicated to his clients, both in and out of the gym, and is flexible, agreeable, and gives the exact right amount of push when it’s needed. I feel really lucky and grateful that I work with Hugh. He has helped get me back into very good shape after a bit of a lag in my workouts. I cannot recommend him, his services, or his gym enough.

I have been friends with Hugh for about 5 years. I knew he was good at what he does, but it wasn't until I signed up for this 12 week transformation that I learned first hand just how good and knowledgeable he really is. I have lost over 20lbs, my endurance and activity level is way up. I have dropped 4 holes in my belt. I actually had to buy a new belt. I fit in my old pants. I had a goal to play 2v2 volleyball successfully for more than a half of a game before getting tired. This last Friday, I just played 5 games in a row without a break and I know its because of this 12 week transformation. I have worked with 7 other nutrition coaches in my lifetime and Hugh was by far the most thorough coach I have ever had. You get what you pay for. Hugh is the best coach money can buy. All the coaches in my past focused on getting me results today which put me in a yoyo diet mentality. Even though Hugh wanted me to achieve my goals, he taught me it is more important to establish lifelong habits that will help me stick to them and not just go back to my old ways. Hugh does not only focus on nutrition and activity like all my other coaches did, but he also focuses on consistency, sleep, water, meal planning, and mindful eating. I tend to beat myself up every time I have a "bad" day, but Hugh taught me that I don't have to be guilty over a day of indulgences but that I can get back on track and work towards my goals today. He is always a text away for anything. He was awesome at helping me get back on track. He would kindly ask me "what 1 thing are you going to do today to help you reach your goals?" That helps me even today get back on track when I have a "bad" day. Thanks again Hugh for all your help!

I signed up for Capacity's transformation program because i was working out consistently, but not getting the results I wanted. At some point I just had to admit that I didn't know as much as I thought about health and fitness. As it turned out my diet was wonky, and many of the things I thought were helping were not. Coach Hugh helped me establish healthy diet, exercise, sleep, and mindfulness habits gradually over time, and kept me accountable weekly. By the end of the program, I lost 30+ lbs, and also dropped 12+ percentage points of body fat. On top of that, I left the program understanding how to build and maintain new habits, so I feel much more able to tackle all sorts of goals in both my personal and professional life. I cannot recommend this program highly enough. Thanks Capacity!

I came to Hugh and Capacity Fitness after hitting a one month plateau following my own independent weight loss journey where I’d lost 25 pounds in 6 months in a calorie deficit while exercising daily. I felt frustrated when it seemed that couldn’t lose any more weight this way, and like I was “just meant to be a bigger person.” I wanted to give up because it felt like despite trying very hard, nothing was working past that point. My goals at the beginning of working one-on-one with Hugh were to achieve a normal BMI, achieve a healthy weight, and feel confident in my own skin. I’ve learned so much about the importance of macros and how easy it can be to still enjoy the foods and drinks I enjoyed if I balanced them with the other things I would eat and drink. I lost 13 pounds of body fat and even gained a few pounds of muscle while cutting. I’ve already started to see changes in my confidence where I wear clothes that actually fit me, rather than only stretch or oversized fitting clothes. I’ve began to receive complements on looking healthier and my appearance. I feel stronger and am lifting more than I’ve been able to in years. I feel much less stressed planning for my meals at the beginning of the week to fit into my macro requirements, and am able to treat myself to my favorite foods daily while still working towards my goals and achieving a healthy lifestyle. I have learned so much, and I am confident that I will be able to take everything that I’ve learned from working with Capacity Fitness, and will be able to maintain a healthy lifestyle while successfully pursuing my fitness goals. Thanks to the Capacity team!

First of all, I love this place. And that is a miracle.
I’m someone who dealt with low energy and frustration behind the fits and starts of “going back to the gym.” My diet, routine, and schedule were all superseded by work and frankly, low motivation. Eventually I realized that the only person capable of getting me to do anything was ME, and luckily, I found Capacity Fitness and Nutrition. I had NO desire to do what looked like CrossFit, calisthenics, or anything new, so I waited to see if the feeling to get myself together was fleeting.
I saw Hugh Green in my Instagram feed with a challenge for busy professionals, and as a dare to myself, I contacted him, and he immediately reached out to set up an in person interview. I’m so glad he reached out to help me.
I was so impressed with his rapid response and easy going, professional approach to my very own fitness plan. He spells it out, works one on one with me, doesn’t let me get down on myself, and challenges me every single work out. Hugh pushes you by showing you that you should believe in YOU, because he does. His support and encouragement make the challenge of the WODs attainable, even if difficult. I honestly look forward to my early morning WODs with him because he makes the most of the time we have while keeping things upbeat and fun (however challenging lol).
I had to make a decision to keep a commitment to myself and stick with this program, and the changes I’ve seen physically and mentally are amazing. In the past I have bailed on myself before I saw results, but this time, I’ve stuck with him and lost 13lbs of body fat and put on lean muscle. My habits (diet, meal planning, day planning, gym commitment) have improved immensely thanks to Hugh and Capacity Fitness.
The plan he created for me details the importance of rest, diet, water intake, and movement apart from just gym work. It’s a wholistic approach to helping me build and maintain a lifestyle plan that truly works, and the impact of that plan and the commitment I made to it has been a game changer.
Capacity Fitness is a fun, welcoming, and supportive gym. It’s all business, so don’t expect frills. This place is focused on getting you fit and keeping you challenged. Hugh is focused on keeping you engaged, and helping however he can to help you meet your goals, which I love. I can’t be more clear, or honest when I say if you’re looking to join a program to help you build a healthy, fit, and balanced lifestyle, Capacity Fitness should be on your to do list.

I was struggling with sticking with a routine post pandemic , I was switching between using the pelaton and class pass. But neither of those seemed to be helping with accomplishing my goals. For the last 7 months Capacity Fitness has been able to not only aid in allowing me to stick with a routine but I have learned so much, and have felt myself getting stronger ! Everyone at the gym is so inviting no matter what level you are fitness wise, there is room for all . Consistency is key to any journey and Capacity has been a key element in that process for me. I am looking forward to continuing my fitness journey at Capacity Fitness !

I used to think of myself as a fairly fit person, but despite my efforts, I struggled to gain more muscle. That's when I decided to seek advice from Hugh. With his help in adjusting my diet and providing workout suggestions, it's been a few months now, and I am finally starting to see results. I am incredibly happy, and I wish I had accessed his guidance and support sooner. But hey, at least I'm on the right track now! Thanks a lot, Hugh!

Capacity Fitness & Nutrition is the best in Federal Hill, Baltimore, MD. After years of struggling to get my nutrition under control, these guys helped me lose weight from day 1. After my initial meeting with them, I could tell the trainers here are very educated and experienced and that’s exactly what you want to look for when hiring a trainer or nutritionist. 10/10 would definitely recommend. If you want to get your body in shape for summer, don’t wait another day!

I can't recommend Capacity Fitness enough! I started going to Capacity six months ago on a recommendation from a friend who attends the gym. I had just finished up a year of physical therapy for some long-term back/neck/shoulder issues and was cleared to start more intensive exercise. This was my first time in a high-intensity program and didn't know what to expect. I was anxious about re-injury but wanted to give it a shot and I'm so thankful I did.
Since joining I've been attending the group strength & conditioning classes several times a week. The location, small class size, and multiple daily class times are a plus, but the community is what brings me back. It's been great to roll in, see familiar faces, and encourage each other every week.
Coaches Hugh, Gabi, Kelsey, Layla, and Neal…they've all been incredibly welcoming, encouraging, and always provide useful feedback during the workouts. They've curated an awesome program that meets you wherever you're at and scales to meet your goals. The classes keep you challenged and change up frequently so it's always fresh.
Big thanks to Capacity and the staff. I'm feeling so much healthier and stronger than when I started. Don't hesitate to check them out!

I started going to Capacity last fall and was initially drawn to it for the types of workouts, small class sizes and the outdoor space that it offered. After going four to five times a week for all of these months, I can confirm that Capacity is a fantastic gym for so many reasons. The workouts are great – very challenging yet scalable for those with limitations (without feeling like you’ve compromised any of the intensity of the workout). I really like the variety of the workouts – the mix of cardio and strength. They are always well-thought out and, most importantly, well-coached with no lack of individualized attention. Aside from the workouts, I have really enjoyed getting to know and working with the other members of the gym and with Coaches Hugh and Gabby. There is a real sense of camaraderie and Coaches Hugh and Gabby are two of the best coaches (and humans) that you can meet. They are always encouraging, there to give you a push when you need it, and are truly invested in making sure everyone attains their goals. They have built a fantastic community at Capacity and I’m thrilled to be a part of it.

I pop into Capacity for a class every few weekends and from the very first time I did so, I've felt so welcomed. It doesn't matter if you're a regular or just jump into a class every now and then, the coaches and members are some of the nicest, most encouraging people I've ever worked out with. The programming is awesome and guaranteed to give you an incredible workout every time. The small class size means you don't get lost in the crowd, you will have someone correct your form if needed and I've always felt Covid-safe. Great location, great coaches, great workout. What more could you ask for?

I first came to Capacity Fitness & Nutrition in April 2020. It was the beginning of COVID-19 Quarantine and my current CrossFit gym had temporarily closed. I sank into a deep depression... I was 15 lbs. heavier than I am now, drinking almost every day and recklessly binging on food in the middle of the night. I felt completely helpless.
When I reached out to Hugh, I was at my most vulnerable and looking for some sort of help. The solution that was given to me was not what I expected. I was not given a fancy and restrictive crash diet... I was not given a rigorous workout routine... -- Instead, Hugh collaborated with me to develop simple, attainable goals that would in turn yield long-term sustainable results. Our weekly check-ins provided routine motivation and planning that set me up for success each week.
One of my biggest fears at the beginning of this whole process was disappointing Hugh and Gabby... I was scared to death of failure -- in the gym and in the kitchen. But one thing they worked with me on was really living life on life's terms. I was never vilified if I ate something I shouldn't have, if I missed a meal prep, if I ate out, etc... They both remained solution-oriented and helped me navigate through the week. They reminded me that in order for this to work, I needed to approach life on life's terms (something I have taken with me as an overall life lesson outside of the gym)... to accept that mistakes, slip-ups, failures --whatever you want to call them -- are all inevitable parts of life.
Moreover, at the gym there are no pressures to PR a specific weight... there is no judgement in scaling a workout or amending it to fix your specific body type or abilities (there are some days I use 20 lb dumbbells and there are some days I use 45s... some days I do box jumps, other days I do step-ups). This was also a huge relief... each day I come into the gym I listen to my body and go with the flow... there are no pressures to compete with other folks or even to push myself in unnecessary ways.
Looking back a year later, I can say that I have lost 4% body fat and 15 lbs of fat, my habits and coping mechanisms are healthier, and I have a solid positive support system around me to see me through this journey. I am forever grateful for everything Hugh and Gabby have given me -- these are things that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. If you are looking for a small, warm, respectful, carefree and hardworking environment, Capacity Fitness & Nutrition is the place for you.

One of the best gyms in the area:
- The most courteous/fun owners/coaches
- Everyone is treated like family
- Small group classes that make it a more personalized experience
- Great functional fitness programming that won’t cause some of injuries that CrossFit is known for. Alternatives/scaled versions are always provide as well! You never have to do more than your body can handle 💥
Love you guys!

What can I say that hasn't been said already? Quite a bit actually. I came to capacity fitness with wellness needs requiring more than just a "pick it up and put it down" mentality. Struggling with addiction and the suboptimal health outcomes that go along with it, I found more than just a place to sweat at Capacity. Hugh, Gabby, and the rest of the Capacity Fitness community helped me dig deeper to find the intersection of goal-crushing fitness and right-sized mindfulness. I'm now well on my way to many firsts, and the journey began at Capacity. No matter what your background or needs may be, as Coach Hugh likes to say, "We got something for that!"

Always a pleasant experience. The daily programming is varied and the staff is very helpful. I'm also a fan of the small class size; it helps to keep the classes moving.

Hugh and Capacity Fitness & Nutrition were just what I needed to get rid of these extra Covid pounds I’ve put on in the last year plus. Tough workout, but I can also go at my own pace and not feel self-conscious. Meal recommendations have been a bonus.

I’ve taken a few classes at Capacity Fitness. Coach Hugh and Gabby always made sure to break everything down for me. And I enjoy learning the benefits of why the workouts are broken down for the day. I just enjoy the atmosphere. Plus the ducks!

This place has been great. Small group classes. Caring coaches. Good community. Everyone is there to work out and be healthy. No competitions, just chill people. A totally welcoming environment to all. Can't say enough good things about Coach Hugh and Coach Gabby and what they are building. Would give 6 stars if I could.

They are awesome coaches and great people - we always have so much fun together. I basically live at this gym now :)

Perfect COVID-safe/ COVID-friendly gym for someone who is interested in aerobic exercise/HIIT workouts in a small class setting. Coach Hugh and Coach Gabby are incredibly detail oriented and offer the perfect combination of patience, direction, and motivation. As a member of this gym, you will learn (a lot!) about different movements, why you do them, and how to do them safely. The gym itself is in impeccable condition and the sense of community its members bring is a huge added benefit.

This gym is amazing! Not only are the trainers amazing but so is the view! Coach Hugh and Coach Gabby have really helped me to change not just my fitness routine, but my eating habits as well. Both nutrition and fitness guidance in one spot. While I am using the equipment it is nice to gaze out to the water which helps to get in a perfect mindset! I would highly reccommend to anyone who is new to fitness or would like a challenge!

Capacity has become a second home with the pandemic. Being able to get out of the house for even an hour for a nice workout is always worth it with Huge and Gabby. They are amazing trainers and put their clients needs first!
