- PLPaul L4 days ago5.0This VIDA location is well equipped with premium strength training equipment. Additionally the staff is always friendly and helpful and the gym is well organized with a solid layout. They also validate parking. Definitely check it out!
- MMMinhOct 15, 20251.0For a gym charging a premium of $145 a month, my experience was a huge letdown. Day pass is $45. Steam room is out of service. I spent about five hours at the Yards location this week to thoroughly evaluate it before committing as I’ve been getting spammed in the mail, and I'm glad I did. The staff's attitude was consistently condescending, from the Senior Membership Advisor (Saad Siddiqui) to the people at front desk. My main issue how the staff addressed my comment about the soft flooring in the free-weight area, which is completely unsuitable for barbell squats. When I brought this up, the staff condescendingly told me to just use the Smith machine or use the Olympic platform, completely dismissing a valid safety concern. There was a Titan Fitness safety squat bar (SSB) that I had no idea how much it weighed. I asked two person trainers (you’ll see PT and their clients everywhere in the gym) how much the bar weighed. The PTs said they had no idea and left it at that. The front desk staff was equally apathetic. I’ve had better customer service at Planet Fitness for a tiny fraction of the cost. This place is motivated about locking you into their membership plan and signing you up to the many classes and services they offer. This place is not it and I highly recommend looking elsewhere in the DC area.
