Total Source Fitness

Fantastic experience: Are you guys open today? You randomly weren’t this Wednesday, and I can’t get through.

Fantastic experience: My partner uses this gym because it’s the only one in Noma. It’s got everything you need and they def cater to “enthusiasts” — just wish it would open at 6 or 7 for those who work at 9 and can’t make it after work… maybe with the new development in the neighborhood and increase in 9-5ers they’ll start to open earlier?

Fantastic experience: Excellent, no-frills gym with all the equipment you could need for a great workout. A definite recommend from me.

Fantastic experience: This has got to be one of the coolest Gyms I've ever been a member of. Moved to the area, and they are the only true weightlifting gym, they have an awesome outdoor area too. If you have your evenings free or don't work a rigid schedule then this is the place for you definitely.

Fantastic experience: Perfect

Fantastic experience: I really like this gym, not crowded, all needed equipment and very close to my home. Nice customer service! Recommend!

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. Close by and has all the equipment you need to get at it. This is a no frills gym. Just open space and tons of equipment. I go with my fiance to work out together and she is also a fan. She typically works with aerobic, alternative bands, and ropes. I definitely recommend this gym to people who are serious about getting fit!

Fantastic experience: Updating my review after a few months of coming here as a guest. I have found more appreciation for this gym than the gym I belong to. I’ve never had to wait for any equipment here. They have everything you’d need. Never too packed. Still leaks in places is the only thing. Has been consistent $10 since last review. Would join this gym if I lived closer. Lots of gym equipment & heavy weights. Perfect for big dudes who lifting is their passion or small guys who want to get big . Only bad thing is leaks everywhere (Buckets pictured). Cold in the winter. Cost of bringing guests changes every time based on who’s working. $10 to $20 per visit. This place has a lot of potential but needs a little work.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality This is the best gym in dc. It's a no nonsense, no frills gym that has everything you need. Having lived in DC for over the past decade and trained at Golds, WSC, Vida, and Equinox, Total Source stands apart. It doesn't cost an arm and a leg and has a great community. Strongly recommend for anyone in the NE/NW area.

Fantastic experience: Total Source Fitness is my go-to gym. If you're a gym goer, this is the gym for you. Very hardcore and has all of the equipment any big box gym has. The gym is also Black and community owned which is a plus for me. Kent, the owner of the gym, is very personable and willing to work with you if any issues arise. The gym is also centrally located which is a plus. After I workout, I can head right over to Union Market to grab me a smoothie. If you're looking for a new gym, you have to check this one out!

Fantastic experience: This is a great gym! I'm only leaving because I'm moving, but this gym has all the essentials. If you're into lifting heavy, training agility, and no frills gym experience, this is the one for you. Inexpensive too compared to some of the other DC gyms and Kent, the owner, really works with you. I was actually overcharged for a couple months and when I brought it up with Kent, he worked to make sure I was compensated in cash for the overcharge and inconvenience too. He made sure I was taken of.

Fantastic experience: This is the perfect no nonsense gym.Just weights to lift and tires to flip. Love it.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym, hands down. When i moved to DC I looked for a place that was affordable, within walking distance, and had the equipment i needed to stay in shape. Total Source gave me just that. Total Source Fitness is run and owned by Kent, a straight up dude who never fails to ask you how you’re doin. I’ve seen some comments that suggest that TSF is poorly run and a low-quality gym. In my experience, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Kent has been straightforward with me since i first joined the gym. I had an issue where my membership was charged twice in one month, an accident he fixed after I spoke with him. The correction took a week or two, but he made it right and was transparent with me the whole way through. Sometimes things take time with computers and logistics. As long as you’re straight with him, he’ll take care of you. Love this place.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a gym to get an actual workout in, then Total Source Fitness is the place. With seven squat racks and a bunch of benches, I’ve never waited for a lift. While it’s definitely no frills, the regulars know their way around a gym, making it easy to move around and get work in. What’s more, Kent, the owner, gave me a break on my initiation fee because I’d only be in town for a month. Definitely give Total Source Fitness a try if you’re in town.

Fantastic experience: Great, true gym. No frills but who needs that to get big.

Fantastic experience: Great no frills gym!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Quality This gym is phenomenally ran with the owner being transparent about transactions and providing regular updates (especially during COVID). The actual gym has everything you need with great personality. It's the perfect place to push yourself!

Fantastic experience: This is a trainers gym. Definitely good for people who need a temporary gym while they’re in DC. The owner is particularly nice in that he gave me a discounted rate on the membership fee since I’d only be in town for a month. You come for the equipment (which they have a lot of, in quantity and diversity), not the amenities (which they have few of). The outdoor space is a really nice added option. Biggest issue would be that there was some leaks in the roof but it didn’t impact anybody’s workout from what I observed. 9/10, will definitely be coming back.

Fantastic experience: I have happily been a member for over a year. Total Source is a great gym that has a surplus of machines for all workouts. I've never waited to use a machine no matter what time I went. The staff is beyond friendly and accommodating.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in DC hands down. TSF has a super-friendly staff, great prices, trainers at the ready, and more. The gym is equipt with all the gear you'd ever want and has plenty of space so you won't feel crowded. Not only do I recommend this gym because I love the vibe, but the outdoor section with tires, weight-sleighs, sludge-hammers and more make it truly unique. There is also convenient parking right at the front entrance. Kent and the guys do a terrific job making sure the gym is clean and their members are happy, I know they'll continue to keep TSF the best gym in DC.

Fantastic experience: In a gains desert filled with planet fitness, CrossFit boxes, and other gimmicky workout gyms, Kent provides an oasis for people who are serious about working out and never want to worry about setting off a "lunk alarm". There's plenty of space, a ton of equipment, and everything someone of any fitness level needs to better themselves. Great gym, great price, great owner, and a good year of working out.

Fantastic experience: I'm originally from California and was excited when I discovered TFS as it's just like the gyms back home with its warehouse feel and outdoor turf area with tires and sleds. Been going to this gym for almost 2 years now. If you're trying to get a good pump in or want to do some solid HIIT outside on the turf area, this is the best spot in DC. The owner Kent is legit and cares about his customers. He and his staff of trainers go out of their way to get to know their members and really give the gym a neighborhood feel. Membership fees are the best in the city as you won't be paying those ridiculous Vida or WSC prices. This is a lifters gym no doubt, but if you're new to the game, Kent's team will get you rolling and in shape. If you're going to Vida or elsewhere, you're just throwing away cash.

Fantastic experience: Solid and bare-bones, lifter's gym. Weeknights can get a little busy, but weekends have been nice and dead. It's a reasonable priced gym in my area with good hours and all the equipment and weight I could need for lifting and strength training. Great local community feel as well. I'd advise bringing enough water for your full workout.

Fantastic experience: I had a good time training at this gym for the past 4 months! The staff was always approachable, and helpful when necessary. I kept to myself, got in and got out, and total source was the place to be for that. I utilized the turf outside, and the 6 squat racks never left me waiting to workout.

Fantastic experience: This is definitely the place to go if you’re serious about your fitness.

Fantastic experience: Friendly and helpful staff. Great equipment and lots of space to get a great workout in. Best gym in DC!

Fantastic experience: perfect gym for serious people not looking for a fancy spa

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym. For people truly interested in body building, weight lifting, and fitness. Knowledgeable staff. Dumbbells available up to 150 lbs. Bring a gallon water jug, or be prepared to purchase water bottle or fill up your water bottle in bathroom sink. Be prepared to sweat. Large floor fans provide air circulation, but from what I observed no air conditioning available. Cleaning wipes available for wiping down equipment. Consider bringing a hand towel. I haven't asked specifically, but guys seem to be able to workout shirtless (which might help you keep your shirt from getting too sweaty). Free three-day trial pass was available when I first visited. People in town for short time period can pay minimal $10 charge for day use. Walking distance from Courtyard by Marriott Washington, DC/US Capitol NoMa-Gallaudet Red Line Metro.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I have been coming to Total Source Fitness for almost a year now. We’re happy with our membership, it’s affordable and the gym has all the equipment you need. Everyone is friendly and the gym is in a convenient location. There‘s also parking available.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of the gym for a few months now. Good no frills gym, with space inside and outside to do some serious work. Great facility, great equipment!

Fantastic experience: I love working out at this gym , because I know when I walk through the door it’s time to get it in. The way the gym is setup you have no choice but to want to get in shape.

Fantastic experience: Great array of equipment in an awesome location. Kent and the rest of the staff are very friendly and helpful whenever a need arises. Highly recommend this gym!

Fantastic experience: Clean equipment, friendly and welcoming staff, and a good location. I just moved here from California and am very happy with Total Source Fitness, my new gym. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great no nonsense no gimmick gym. If you are serious about fitness or want to get serious this is the gym for you. The staff is really friendly and knowledgeable as well so no excuse for beginners. If you're happy passing away 10 bucks a month at planet fitness go ahead. If you want to do some work this is the gym for you.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym! Staff is so welcoming, professional, and friendly. I also love how much open space is available for me to do my HITT workouts. Top of the line equipment and workout machines. No matter how packed the gym is I can always find what weights and other equipment I need for my workout because the owner made sure to meet all of his customer's needs. Highly recommend joining Total Source Fitness. Best gym I've joined by far :).

Fantastic experience: No frills gym with excellent staff. It's a zero judgment zone where everyone comes to work hard. Owner believes in the personal touch and makes it a point to know & check in with all his customers, whether they're getting personal training or not. It's a great place to work out.

Fantastic experience: Really big gym with plenty of room and equipment. Did a three day trial and really enjoyed my time.

Fantastic experience: If you love to work hard and are looking for gritty gym in which the atmosphere motivates you to push yourself.. this is absolutely the place for you. This is that hardcore style gym that you have been looking for. When you walk in you simply want to move weight and work hard. Owner is very passionate. Awesome place. Give it a 3 day trial and I’m sure you’ll love it

Fantastic experience: I really appreciate the hell out of this gym. I've been a member of 24 Hour Fitness and Anytime Fitness, and done trials & guest passes at Gold's Gym and Planet Fitness because I move/travel a lot and always need to find a place to exercise or I'll go crazy. Total Source is one of my favorites. The staff are very personable, responsive, and friendly. The equipment functions well and the gym itself is in an old warehouse - perfect for people who want no-frills workouts or bootcamps in a friendly and supportive environment at a great monthly price. It's also right next to Union Market, so if you're the type to run and get a tasty post-workout treat, you're on the right block!

Fantastic experience: I have been very please with my workout experience at Total Source Fitness gym. I have been training for nearly a year and have yet to come into any issues with the staff, equipment, or atmosphere. The encouraging environment has definitely motivated me to work out more and get more active. Trainers are very accommodating with their schedules and classes. Also, I have never been to a gym with the owner present and interactive with members daily- I see there are negative comments( which are false) the owner, Kent, is extremely considerate, understanding and flexible with the terms of membership. It seems the only reason one could have an issue is if THEY are incorrect and/or disrespectful. This is my honest opinion and you should see for yourself!

Fantastic experience: I am from out of state, but was staying in NOMA for an internship for about 4 months. I found Total Source Fitness through Google Reviews, and could not have been more pleased with the gym. They have all the equipment you: dumbbells, barbells, squat racks, etc. The price is great for D.C. The staff is extremely friendly, honest, and respectful. They also have group classes and personal training for those interested. It's never super overcrowded either; there's enough space and enough equipment to keep everyone well-dispersed. I would recommend this gym to anyone and everyone. Honestly one of the best gyms I've ever worked out in.

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. The owner and staff are really cool.

Fantastic experience: The employees are professionally focus on customers achieving their fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: This is a no-joke gym. They have everything you need without all the additional fees and nonsense. Just owners that understand people who just want to work out.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere! This is hands down the best gym in the immediate area.

Fantastic experience: I'm a new member of Total Source Fitness, and it's a great gym. The equipment and staff are terrific. The vibe is inclusive and chill, and you'll be treated with respect regardless of your fitness level. I've worked out at numerous gyms in DC - both CrossFit and conventional gyms - and Total Source Fitness is the best by far. And to clarify Total Source Fitness is totally separate from Downtown Boxing Club, which is housed in the same space. They are completely separate entities that have nothing to do with one another.

Fantastic experience: First time to the gym today. It's a professional setup with plenty of equipment ranging from free weights to machines. The owner is very friendly and all together it was a great experience. I would recommend others of all ranges.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! The owner, Kent takes such pride in his gym, really cares about his clients and has a real passion for fitness. Every time you walk through the door, you get a friendly welcome, there's no judgement and everyone comes to work hard, which is a hug motivator in itself! It has all of the equipment you could need to get a really great workout in and if your interested in PT, the trainers are very knowledgeable! Check it out- it's very affordable for a DC gym!!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gritty little gym in the Union Market area.

Fantastic experience: Excellent spot with good equipment and the most supportive trainers!
