Sarge Athletics

Fantastic experience: I took the bootcamp while visiting relatives over Christmas. It had challenging exercises and coaches that keep you motivated. I love that they have a peg wall!

Fantastic experience: I started at Sarge to get fit and I have achieved so much more! The coaching staff is PHENOMENAL! They are encouraging, supportive and knowledgeable to help you meet YOUR goals. The community of this training center is unlike any other. It is truly like a family!

Fantastic experience: I joined Sarge about 4 months ago. Prior to Sarge, I was working out in small group gym classes, and I had a virtual personal trainer… but I was BORED. I had just moved to Frederick about a year prior, and I was missing the community and accountability I used to have with my old gym buddies. I knew about Sarge Athletics from a local friend and decided to give it a try. I met with Sarge, took one class, and I was hooked. The facility is great, the coaches are superb and the comradery and community with all the members is exactly what I needed at this time in my fitness journey. Each class is different, and a full body workout. The coaches are friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. Joining Sarge Athletics is one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health and fitness, hands down. 10 out of 10

Fantastic experience: Sarge Athletics is an amazing training center and holds a special place in my heart! I started going to Sarge Athletics 8 years ago and have had nothing but a great experience. I have trained in group classes as well as done one-on-one personal training with Sarge himself. Sarge has done nothing but been there to support me and push me to help me reach my fitness goals. He tailors my workouts each session for what I want to work on and never failed to make my workouts fun even when they were challenging. Especially after my ACL surgery in 2017, Sarge was there to help build my athletic confidence back and get me back on the lacrosse field. All of the coaches are passionate about what they do and you can tell by the way they bring energy in the room. I have distant memories of Coach Dakota cheering me on doing sled pushes. Everyone is friendly and welcoming which makes the training experience a 10/10. One of my other favorite aspects of my training experience was getting a protein smoothie afterwards. Sarge Athletics has many options to choose from if you want to get one after your training session. Overall, Sarge is amazing and I would recommend this training center to anyone who is interested in making friends and having a good time while working out and improving your fitness!

Fantastic experience: Great facility

Fantastic experience: I brought my two young children (7 & 6) to Sarge’s over the summer for a couple training sessions a week. They split their sessions between Sarge, and coach Dakota. My kids loved their time there. I saw a great improvement in their strength, speed, and knowledge of how to use their bodies correctly for important tasks (running, pushing, pulling..) I know a good number of very smart movement coaches in the fitness world, and after a number of conversations with Sarge, I give you my word he is one as well. If it’s for you or your children, Sarge and his team get my highest recommendation. We will be back if we are welcome.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love Sarge Athletics!! I was looking for a workout with strength and cardio at a gym where I felt supported. Sarge made sure to address my concerns and I am seeing great results!! 5 stars and would recommend Sarge Athletics to everyone!!

Fantastic experience: Been coming to Sarge Athletics since I was in middle school and I have loved it ever since! Sarge and his staff create a welcoming and fun environment for all ages and fitness levels. Now that I am in college, I enjoy taking a trip to Sarge Athletics with McDaniel College CHAARG to have killer workouts, learn more about fitness and nutrition, and get coached by awesome coaches - especially coach Isaac and Hosey! Very grateful for Sarge Athletics!

Fantastic experience: I had always known I needed to be more active; I just didn't trust myself to get to a gym enough to make it worth the cost of a membership. Sarge's adult fitness classes have been perfect to keep me challenged and motivated. I'm in the better shape than I have been since college.

Fantastic experience: Love this place! I have been a member at a number of places and this is by far my favorite. The trainers are constantly keeping an eye on form and suggesting adjustments to avoid injury and gain strength. I can ask questions anytime and they offer modifications for injuries. Classes always begin with foam rolling and a stretch/warm—up and heart rate monitors track metrics on a monitor. The combination of a number of class times to choose from, amazing trainers, as well as the overall family atmosphere makes it such a great place!!

Fantastic experience: This year has been challenging in so many unexpected ways. Attending training class at Sarge’s has been my saving grace! Exercising and getting my nutrition under control has elevated stress, improved my strength, and increased my energy. Completing the nutrition challenge kept me focused on healthier habits: hydrating, eating more veggies, and preparing food that tastes delicious and FILLS YOU UP!!!!

Fantastic experience: I have been a long time client of Sarge Athletics. Best personal training programs around! I have always found Sarge and his staff supportive. They engage, don't preach, and always listen. The workouts are challenging, but do-able. I always feel accomplished afterwards. My fellow classmates are supportive. I just trust their fitness and nutrition programs to be the best I can be.

Fantastic experience: Amazing trainers and workout classes.

Fantastic experience: The people are very kind and I love the workout that they make me do. It makes me feel energetic and definitely improves your body.

Fantastic experience: I started going to Sarge in May 2021 after having a baby and being out of shape. The coaches are great and encourage you to do your best. They combine exercise, nutrition and encourage sleep to get the best results. I have dropped over 15 pounds, built muscle, and reduced body fat. I love going - at least 4-5 times a week. Below is an example of a week day work out. Try it out!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Quality Best way to start my work day, every day! Appreciate the staff's efforts to open up early and provide a great workout.

Fantastic experience: This training center is like no other. I love how positive and welcoming everyone is. The coaches are all so knowledgeable and get to know you so even the group workouts feel like personal training in a way. The youth programs are incredible and I can’t wait until my kids are old enough. The focus on functional fitness and nutrition is powerful. I’ve gotten so much stronger, healthier, and happier because of Sarge Athletics over the last couple of years. Highly recommend to everyone!

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, Amazing people! ❤❤❤❤

Fantastic experience: I have been a member since early June 2021. I really wasn't in great shape and I was a little bit hesitant to join even though my wife has been a member for over 3 years. With guidance and support from Sarge and his excellent staff (big shoutout to Ari and Brandon), I gradually improved and quickly started feeling the best I have felt in my entire life! I have also seen results - have lost almost 25 lbs and gained significant muscle mass. I recently started a 6 week nutrition challenge and that has also been life changing! Abby and the team have provided great guidance on eating right and the proper support needed. I'd give this 10 stars if I could. The people that workout there are also great and very supportive, too.

Fantastic experience: Edit to add: I lost 30lbs through Sarge. Since my first writing this review last fall, my husband has also joined Sarge and is losing weight and inches while looking more defined and hawt. No one at Sarge (staff or clientele) ever makes you feel fat, weak, or slow. A year later, I still recommend! Original review: I’m nearly two months into working with a personal trainer twice a week, and my 13yo daughter (middle school) is nearly two months into her membership in the youth classes. About us: I’m a middle-aged, overweight, out-of-shape woman. My daughter is of average build and not naturally athletic. My experience thus far, as a client and as a parent: I’m working regularly with Tori twice/week. She‘s great. Personality-wise, she’s nice and upbeat and encouraging. She will push me, but she’ll also take me seriously if I say my body can’t handle something. That’s a really good balance for me. I’ve had Brandon as a sub. Loved him, too. He’s genuine, positive, and motivating. He encourages you to finish strong. I recommend both as personal trainers. As for progress and results: I’m going to be real here. The...what I’ll call ripples...along my legs are smoothing out. I’m tighter. I’m stronger. My cardio is improving. I’m not losing weight, but I also haven’t made dietary changes. I leave there fully certain that I’m going to die, but in a good way, I think? Now for my daughter: She loves it. She *asks to go*, which doesn’t happen with most activities. I’m frankly shocked. Like, SHOCKED. I chose to enroll her in Sarge for both social interaction and fitness, and it’s working out nicely. She, like me, really likes both Brandon and Tori, which leads me to believe they are able to work with a wide age range. When I just asked her what she likes about Sarge, she said, “I like all the trainers, and when we do group work.” So. Yes, it’s expensive. Yes, the personal trainers are trying to kill you. But yeah, I’m glad I’m spending the money.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Outstanding experience for myself and my middle school son. Would recommend for any age or fitness level. They are especially cognizant of keeping their members safe during COVID; with everyone wearing masks and wiping down equipment after each use.

Fantastic experience: Amazing coaches, facility, and community! First visit was in 2017. I was so impressed with the quality of the youth athlete programs (proven and science-based training methods) and the exceptional adult workouts (tough, fun, and never the same or boring), that I knew I wanted to work here! Best part is that everyone is welcome regardless of age or fitness level. Stop in anytime and you'll see 10-18 yr old athletes, 20-75 yr old training camp members, and even 75+ yr old personal training clients getting Better Every Day!

Fantastic experience: Sarge is great! I have been doing workouts on and off with him and his team for over 20 years. They get you going and keep you moving!i

Fantastic experience: Incredibly knowledgeable staff and a top notch training facility. I was a college athlete in my day. The workouts Sarge provides match or surpass anything I have ever experienced. If you want to increase your flexibility, strength, and endurance, you can make it happen at Sarge.

Fantastic experience: This is the best training facility I've ever been too. Sarge and his staff are all professionals with extensive knowledge. I use to get bored working out, not here, each session is different and very challenging. The cool thing is whatever your fitness level is you will fit in and be able to challenge yourself. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: Sarge Athletics is a wonderful training facility. Adult workouts for middle aged people who don't enjoy exercise, that are fun, engaging, and challenging but appropriate. Great trainers and a supportive atmosphere.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to the training center for almost a year and a half. The center itself isn’t pretentious or intimidating. The clients are very diverse as well. All of the coaches I’ve worked with are really knowledgeable and approachable, especially Sarge. He takes such an interest in ALL of his clients, whether you go one day a week or 6. The workouts are always a challenge and you’ll see total body results.

Fantastic experience: I've joined many gyms in my life and this one is absolutely amazing - from the equipment and challenging work outs to the best and most educated athletic trainers. Especially now - during stay at home orders - Sarge didn't let that even slow him down and put everything on line and I was able to keep my work outs which means I kept (so far) my sanity. With all that said - the people at Sarge is the best thing. They inspire, coach, and get you the best work out possible. LOVE this place!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Joined about 2 years ago to mix in some strength training to help my running. I love it here! Staff is awesome and teach you the right way to do everything. They work with you and push you to your max and beyond.

Fantastic experience: Joined a few months ago and never plan on leaving.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, especially for kids ( so hard to find great place for kids to exercise properly) Sarge makes it possible. My son loves it.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful staff, fabulous athletic training and results, positive environment. Clean environment,

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Fun group exercise several times in morning and evening

Fantastic experience: Great place! If you want to challenge you body- it's the place!

Fantastic experience: Pat and his trainers are the best.as Pat says : it's not a gym it's a training center. I very much appreciate the personal help and how tv he programs are set up to work the body through out the week.

Fantastic experience: I had all 3 of my kids in different programs with Sarge Athletics. It was an excellent experience and all 3 gained the skills, confidence and strength to excel in their school sports.

Fantastic experience: Incredible facility, welcoming and knowledgeable staff. Whether you’re a lifelong bodybuilder, or a novice trying to seek out being healthy, every coach is there for you, regardless of a group setting, or one on one training. No judgement, and eager to help people get better everyday. I’m so glad I found Sarge, and his gym.

Fantastic experience: Strong sense of community going to this gym. All of the staff is wonderful, it has been a game changer for me and working out!! I highly recommend trying a boot camp!!!

Fantastic experience: Sarge Athletics ... Love it! I'm not young and I learned a lot about how to make a difference in my life. Not just the workouts, which are great... motivating and always different. However the trainers also help with nutrition and an overall balanced approach to making changes and getting results. I've seen many gains/losses over the past year at Sarge. The ability to flex workouts to my needs, helping me understand the importance of stretching, rolling and strengthening core, etc. with goal to "Move Stong", not to mention the welcoming, yet motivating smile of Sarge, trainers and the great people I work out with makes all the difference! Highly suggest Sarge Athletics for anyone looking to be "better every day"!

Fantastic experience: Sarge and his team genuinely care about your health and fitness. I joined Sarge Athletics as a 6 week challenge to have a healthier lifestyle. I was skeptical because I’ve tried so many other gyms and work outs, but they never seemed to be the right fit for me. I either felt judged, lost or not good enough to be there. From day 1 at Sarge Athletics I have felt welcomed and had the positive reinforcement I’ve needed to get fit and healthy.

Fantastic experience: Excellent training center with an outstanding staff. Extremely involved in all aspects of each session. Been training here for over a year now and will continue as long as I am in the area.

Fantastic experience: Sarge has a unique ability to find passionate, dedicated, and collaborative coaches that work hard to deliver on their commitment to help your achieve your goals. I couldn’t have been more pleased with my experience at Sarge Athletics and would recommend a visit if you’re looking for a lifestyle change or to take your fitness to a new level.

Fantastic experience: I was searching for a training facility that offered more than equipment. As a 55+, I was looking for strengthening, core, cardio, conditioning and balance as a workout regimen. I was also looking for diversity. At SA, there are all sorts of classes for young athletes as well. At SA, our workouts focus on all the aspects I was looking for from a gym. The trainers are all very committed and jump in to assist. Not just the trainer working with your group, but any trainer on the floor will lend a hand., or just words of encouragement. I am here at Sarge's 4 times a week, it has now become my home away from home! How crazy is that? Rock on Sarge!

Fantastic experience: Sarge Athletics opens up a world of achievable possibility. The team helps you focus on becoming your best self in a supportive yet challenging atmosphere. Recommend for anyone, no matter your physical fitness.
