Trainers in Bethesda

“I can’t say enough good things about UP Bethesda and my trainer, Mo. He somehow managed to get me to stick with a gym and work out early in the morning for months — which is honestly not easy ?.

With his help on both exercise and nutrition, I’ve lost weight, met my goals, and feel so much more energized overall. The workouts are challenging but motivating, and I actually look forward to (finishing!) them.

Highly recommend if you’re serious about results and want a trainer who truly knows how to keep you consistent and accountable.“

“I've been working with Ange for over a year and I really appreciate his knowledge, creativity, and concern for my well being. He is always coming up with new exercises to challenge me and I'm amazed at the results. Thank you Ange!“

“Caity is an amazing trainer! I enjoy our sessions soo much! She motivates me even without trying. I feel empowered and encouraged by Caity every step of the way.“

“I absolutely love everything about this place. I’ve been able to reach my fitness goals through short, intense, and super supportive one-on-one workouts with truly amazing trainers and staff. No matter who I work with…Aasim, Will, Ian, or anyone else…the workouts are always customized to my personal goals. They push me in the best way, with tons of positive encouragement and genuine care.

They’re also incredibly mindful about proper form and injury prevention, which makes me feel safe and confident during every session. This has been such a great complement to my PT, and I honestly look forward to my workout every single week.

What really sets this place apart is how personal it feels. Even the general manager, Laura, knows who I am! The environment is warm and welcoming while still being professional and focused. And I’ll say it again…every single trainer here is top notch. They all cheered me on when I was able to complete my first pull-up!“

““I have been training with Eric for the past three months and I have been very pleased with the results as well with Eric's approach.I started looking for a personal trainer months before I met Eric because I had gained weight, had little energy, and felt that my fitness and health were not good.I wanted to get back into the condition that I had been in most of my life.I trained with a couple of other trainers who did not listen to my needs and requests and tried to get me to do exercises with which I felt uncomfortable performing.Before I trained with Eric I explained to him what my needs, interests, and goals were, and explained my medical history.Eric listened to me and formulated a program with which I felt very comfortable. Actually, his program was very demanding, but I only performed exercises with which I felt comfortable. I understood the reasons for each exercise, and understood the basis for the regime. After each session, I feel invigorated. I am always left with a sense of balance and accomplishment. My energy greatly increased after training for only a couple weeks. I have lost significant weight and I feel stronger and firmer. I believe that Eric's background as an internal medicine physician sets him apart from other trainers. Not only does he have the background to design a program that addresses my health concerns, but he has the 'bedside manner' of a physician who is concerned and truly wants to help his client. "“

“Peter is great! Super knowledgeable and he has a huge heart, really cares about the well-being of his clients and is invested in helping them regain mobility, strength, and independence. 10/10 recommend.“

“Wil is an awesome trainer. He’s very knowledgeable, kind, and motivating. I’ve become stronger and more muscular because of him. I can’t imagine working with someone more professional and qualified. He’s highly recommended.“
