Honestly, best decision I have ever made! I’ve belonged to a good amount of gyms through the years. I’ve done small group training and personal. The positivity, the experience of the trainers and enthusiasm at Brizuela is unmatched! The equipment at Brizuela are things I’ve always wanted to use and benefit from, but didn’t have the knowledge or confidence… but at Brizuela, it’s nice to feel supported and never intimidated. My trainer, Fernando has such a great outlook on life, a sense of calm and is a strong motivator. He is extremely knowledgeable and ensures I have the proper form and get the most out of my workout and his training sessions. The owner, Isiah has a contagious energy and has built a great team and atmosphere. My mental health, stress and energy levels have improved in such a short time and are the first “results” I have noticed. Quite honestly for me it’s the most important. Taking time for myself, having that release and building healthy habits has made a world of difference in alot of aspects of life. Obviously, I want to be able to bounce a quarter off my ass and abs soon…. 🤣🤣 but I have no doubt that will come as I continue working with Fernando!!

Isaiah has far exceeded my expectations. He’s personable, motivating, and keeps workouts tailored to my goals with a sharp focus on form and balanced strength. My strength has improved quickly. The gym isn’t trendy, but it’s upgraded with equipment that makes lifting safe and efficient. Best of all, there’s no “weird gym vibe.” I always leave in a great mood.

Posting on behalf of my son: "I’m a high school senior and competitive soccer player, and I have been training with Isaiah for 3 months. In that time, I’ve gotten stronger and much closer to my fitness goals. Before, I felt lost in the gym, but Isaiah’s knowledge of both workouts and nutrition gave me confidence. He always has a thoughtful plan, adjusts to how you’re feeling, and motivates you to push through that last rep.
Beyond being a skilled trainer, he’s genuinely supportive—always checking in about your day and progress. I’ve also met other Brizuela Fitness trainers, and they share the same motivating and respectful approach. I highly recommend Isaiah and Brizuela Fitness to anyone looking to reach their goals."

I have been training at Brizuela Fitness for over a year. The location and facility is great. There are various trainers that all are personable and very welcoming. A ton of equipment throughout the facility which all is used in one way or another.

I have been with Isaiah and has helped me with getting me stronger. It is the little details that I have been missing which I have been focusing on. My schedule is very sporadic but Isaiah always has time to fit me in which makes it welcoming and a place to be. This is a great gym both welcoming and to workout and get stronger. I highly recommend joining.

I have been working out with Jay for about 6 months with the goal to improve my upper body strength. In this short time I have achieved a noticeable difference. Persistent pains in my shoulder joint from swimming injuries have disappeared, and I feel stronger than I ever have. Jay is knowledgeable and flexible, consistently listening to me and making adjustments. The environment at Brizuela is always friendly and fun, which is an added bonus.

My son and I started training with Isaiah at Brizuela Fitness three months ago. In addition to it being a great way to spend time with my young teen, it has made us both stronger and healthier. Isaiah is encouraging and motivating, pushing me beyond what I think I'm capable of in a safe way. He's also a friendly and engaging guy who makes the session fun and it flies by.

Initially, we were just going to train for summer, but we're both excited about our progress and enjoying our time together, so we're continuing into the school year. I can't wait to see how strong I am for ski season!

I’ve been training with Issiah for months and experience has been awesome. He is professional, and motivating. Sessions are tailored to my goals, and he takes the time to explain proper form and technique so I always feel confident and safe.

The facility itself is excellent—clean and well-equipped. Definitely recommend.

Brizuela is an excellent gym with a great vibe and all the equipment you need for a solid workout. Jay, my trainer, is awesome. He is methodical, knowledgeable, and really dedicated to helping you reach your goals. The owner, Isaiah, is friendly and welcoming, which makes the gym feel even more inviting. Overall, Brizuela is a fantastic place to train!

I have been training with Isaiah at Brizuela’s Fitness for 4 years now! When I met with Isaiah I had so many injuries and health issues. Now I am stronger than ever and finally healthy and confident in my own skin. Isaiah always meets my new goals with enthusiasm and new ideas, ready to tackle each challenge that comes my way. I highly recommend him and his team. I love my gym family.

Isaiah is a fantastic trainer. He is very knowledgeable about strength training and fitness. He is a great motivator - very positive and fun to work with, but also keeps me on track to continue to progress. One of the things I value most is his expertise on good form to avoid injury. If something doesn’t look or feel right, he can immediately identify what I am doing wrong and very clearly explain what to change.

The Brizuela Fitness facility is awesome. It’s clean and spacious and the equipment is state of the art.

And while not specifically related to training, it’s great that this is a local business and I know from personal experience that Isaiah cares about supporting our community.

If you are thinking about a personal trainer, check out Brizuela Fitness!

I can’t say enough good things about Brizuela Fitness!

In the past year Isaiah has helped up my fitness game significantly. In that time, I have:
— enjoyed the state of art, meticulously maintained facility
— learned a ton about strength training and avoiding injury
— enjoyed the positive and encouraging environment
— improved my personal bests all around

Definitely time and money well spent if you’re prioritizing your fitness.

I would strongly recommend to anyone.

15 months ago I had limited range of motion in my right shoulder and through working with Derrick Healy at Brizuela Fitness the shoulder is pain free. It has been my first experience of strength training and I highly recommend the benefits of working with highly experienced trainers and the quality of the facility.

Updated March 2025:
It's been over 5 years working with Isaiah and I still highly recommend him to all my friends and colleagues. He is a phenomenal trainer and just a great person you want to be around. The gym itself although 5 years old is still state of the art and he continuously improves the space for his staff and clients. I also really enjoy the private setting and the 1 on 1 experience as I can work with Isaiah to hone in on my goals. I encourage anyone to reach out to Isaiah for a consultation. You won't regret it.

Past Post:
I have been training with Isaiah for a couple of years now and it's been an excellent experience. Before seeing him I was constantly having back injuries and with his help, I've been able to really strengthen my core and lower back and I haven't had an issue since. He spared no expense on his new state-of-the-art facility where I am really looking forward to achieving my next fitness goal. I know I can get there with him as my trainer. I highly recommend Brizuela Fitness!

My son began working with Isaiah almost 10 years ago, he is now 20 and has remained a client of Isaiah, returning whenever he comes home from college.
Isaiah has been an amazing personal trainer, my son has grown to love daily workouts and his knowledge of weights and fitness are all due to Isaiah.
There is no doubt that Isaiah has been a mentor to my son helping him grow in mind, body and spirit. He’s been a true inspiration and influence on all things healthy.
We are so grateful and easily give him the highest recommendation.

Isaiah does an excellent job of explaining exactly which muscles we are targeting with each exercise. If one of my 74-year-old joints is not cooperating at a given session, he knows immediately how to substitute a different lift that doesn’t hurt that joint. He’s very smart, along with being really personable and efficient. Best of all, he doesn’t treat me like an old geezer.

I had been training with Isaiah even before he opened Brizuela Fitness, and when he launched his own personal training business, I didn’t hesitate to check it out. What truly sets Isaiah and his team at Brizuela Fitness apart is their expertise, dedication, and ability to teach people how to train both hard and smart. They are deeply passionate about what they do, and it shows in the way they support and challenge you—always kind, yet holding you accountable to your goals. Most importantly, they emphasize safe and effective training techniques, ensuring you build a healthier, stronger body for life. Highly recommend!

I’ve trained with Isaiah for 2 years and he is the best. As I was getting older, my goal to prioritize my health and gain strength. He helped accomplish my goal and still enjoy working out which I never liked. He is best, runs a great business and highly recommend to everyone looking for a personal trainer!

I’ve been training with Isaiah for almost three years. I started initially to try and strengthen my back after experiencing some lower back pain. After the pain went away, I kept at it due to my continued progression and improvement. Isaiah is great to train with - friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and a great motivator (and never lets you get away with doing less than he thinks you are capable of).

After herniating 2 discs in my back in 2017 and 6 months of physical therapy, I didn't know where to turn. I knew I needed to do more if I wanted to live a pain free and healthy life. I started working with Isaiah 2x/week and the results were immediate. Focusing on posterior chain and overall body strength, I'm stronger and healthier than I've ever been. It's not an exaggeration to say Isaiah's work with me has been life changing, and I couldn't be more grateful. Isaiah is thoughtful, knowledgable, and ensures at all times we are working with proper form to avoid injury. He's also very organized and a great communicator, making planning for sessions and payment worry and stress free. Finally, he has all of the equipment needed to work on all manner of strength training movements. I highly recommend Isaiah and Brizuela Fitness to anyone who wants to build strength and lead a healthy life!

I trained with Isaiah prior to him kickstarting his gym in 2020, and I also had him train my son during his Arlington High School days prior to his playing D2 collegiate soccer, which was a great way to prepare him, but also protect him from bad training and lifting habits. We should all be so lucky to know an individual as warm, strong, and focused as Isaiah and reap the benefits of working with his hand selected equally competent trainers. Since I am an early bird and there are only so many of us that can fill that early am slot with Isaiah, I have happily been working with Derrick with fabulous results and reversing so many of the "50 year-old hurts" we all begin to show later in life. Don't be shy and introduce yourself to Isaiah and his team; it will be a gift to your long-term health and wellbeing, and also increase your sense of community and connectedness as we all train together in the gym!

Isaiah’s energy, enthusiasm, work ethic, and fitness knowledge cannot be matched. He is organized, positive, encouraging, and responsive. I have trained twice a week with him for a year and a half now and have never felt stronger. As a middle-aged woman concerned about staying strong and keeping these bones dense, Brizuela Fitness has been the perfect match. Run, don’t walk, to schedule your first session.

I have been training with Isaiah for a year and a half, and not only do I feel stronger and healthier, but every workout is a rewarding experience that I look forward to, which really keeps me motivated. The gym has state-of-the-art equipment, knowledgeable trainers, and an atmosphere that motivates me to reach my fitness goals. I have belonged to regular gyms in the past, but they were often crowded and noisy, and often equipment wasn't available. Having Isaiah as a private trainer means that there is rarely more than one or two other people at the most in the gym at the same time, you get one-on-one instruction and training that is tailored to your personal goals, and a clean and bright environment to work out in. I struggled to stay motivated at the regular gyms, but now I look forward to each session and feel great afterwards! If you want to have a great experience working out and make progress quickly, I highly recommend Brizuela Fitness!

Isaiah is wonderful to work with! I came to him with many joint issues, looking to weight train for pain relief and mobility. With much kindness and encouragement, Isaiah has been helping me learn the ways of weight training. My knees are starting to feel the positive results of this training! His expertise and his good humor keep me motivated on days where I feel like I am dragging. I look forward to my sessions with Isaiah and feel more positive about the future of my body knowing I have an expert in my corner, guiding the way. Highly recommended!

Update in December 2024: I get so many complements since I started working out with Isaiah. And I am pain free! I have tried physical therapy, occupational therapy, Acupucture, massage, ect for my tennis elbow. I saw results within weeks and haven’t had elbow pain since. All the equipment is top of the line. Music is great. So happy that Brizuela Fitness is right in the center of Arlington!

2022 review: I love the space and Isaiah is a great trainer. Getting lots of complements after working with him for few weeks. But best part is working more efficiently (I have physical job) and feeling stronger.

His workouts are focused on my goals. Isaiah is also a wonderful coach with deep experience and an engaging personality. His enthusiasm and upbeat conversation always keep me motivated, and make each workout fun.

I am a division one athlete that has been training with Isaiah for four years now. Going into my freshman year, Isaiah trained me in order to be ready for college soccer and did an amazing job. His knowledge on the topics of speed, strength, and performance is second to none. Isaiah is very flexible with his knowledge and is always willing to work with you toward your goals. Not only is Isaiah an amazing personal trainer, but he is an even better guy. He always comes with an amazing attitude and positive energy to help get you through the workout. He is a very personable guy who also cares about your life outside of the gym. His facility, Brizuela Fitness, is the nicest gym I have ever trained in. It is clean, there's music, food, endless equipment, and it is always just you and him training. I could not recommend this place enough if you are looking to get more fit, strong, etc.

I've been training with Isaiah for a few years now, and I was thrilled with the experience even before he opened up a new space! Now that Brizuela Fitness has opened its doors and he's now got the quality equipment to really flesh out a training program, I'm feeling a whole new level of progress. From grip training with axle bars to sled work on the turf, Brizuela Fitness is helping me reach a whole new level of fitness. I can't recommend swinging by to work with Isaiah or any of the other trainers in his space enough!

Isaiah took me from a fragile lower back to a comfortable deadlift and, for the first time in my life, a full-range-of-motion free weight squat (and I was an athlete in college!). Training with him was the best way to start my day and the results changed my quality of life. Beyond being a knowledgeable coach and having equipment you won’t find in other gyms, Isaiah is an honest partner who’ll keep you accountable and motivated on the journey toward your best self.
