The workouts at MAD are amazing. I always feel like I worked hard, even on days I'm not feeling it. Only having to commit to 4x a week is also great. A lot of places want you to go in everyday or do a challenge to do 15 classes in 20 days, but MAD isn't that. Signing up for classes and waitlist is easy on the app. Canceling is also just as easy and the window to do so is reasonable. The coaches are top notch. I never feel like I'm being judged and they truly care that my form is correct. I also like that they ALWAYS have a modification for ANY of the movements. Overall, best fitness program in the DMV.
Hit a plateau with my own routine and found the MAD gym. I tried the 10 for $10 special and never looked back. Workouts are never boring and always push me to be my best. Trainers are awesome and take the time to work with you to create your best form.
I've been a member for a little over a year and not only has my body changed and become stronger, I have also added so many people to my life I now consider close friends. The workouts are INTENSE, but are scalable to your level of fitness through modifications and the color system (which equates to weights). The classes are small so the trainers can monitor and correct form, which is great for people new to working out or those of us that have lifted for a while but picked up really bad habits (like myself). The compound movements and time intervals keep you engaged while focusing on many muscles at any given time so you get a fantastic workout every time. Lastly, the people are amazing. I know people may wonder why so many reviews talk about the community, but it really is that great and impactful. It really changes how you may feel about a gym or workout when you are surrounded by supportive and motivating individuals every single time. In the end, what do you have to lose when you can try 10 days for $10?
The culture, staff, and friends here are truly one of a kind! The workouts challenge any person, regardless of their fitness levels!
For the past ten months I've had the good fortune of being a member at this studio. The owner is genuinely committed to positive experiences and looks for opportunities to better what the studio currently offers (supplements, workout gear, beverages, Territory, scheduling, clinics). The programming is well done. They are continually looking to change it up with heavier weights and/or moves I've never done before. For complex moves, they split those up before putting the whole move together, making the more complicated move doable and safe. The cleanliness and cool temps add to the safe experience. I have yet to learn of someone getting injured at the studio aside from the random misstep, which is to be expected. Their coaching team is spot on, knowledgeable and committed. To all of the coaches and the dedication that they and the studio provides, THANK YOU. I feel stronger, healthier and look forward to my visits.

Stop whatever workout isn't working for you right now and come try MAD for 10 days. You'll be hooked immediately.
The trainers - not cheerleaders - actually care about your form and are there to help prevent injuries, not over-train you. Classes are capped at 25 people (recently raised from 20) so you truly do receive one-on-one attention. When I first joined here I couldn't even do an air squat with just my body weight. My trainers have helped me tremendously, and now I'm lifting weights I didn't even dare glance at before in the gym because they were intimidating. And guess what? I'm not bulking! Thanks to proper nutrition and training, I continue to build muscle in all the right places and lose fat in others.
The community here is noncompetitive, supportive, and sociable. My 0530 class are some of the friendliest people I know, and they are a huge reason I wake up so early! Quarterly socials are held too so you get to know people who are in other classes as well.
If you are in DC proper and wanting to see what all the MADness is about, there is a location opening up on H street this fall/winter.

I've been going to MAD since it opened about a year and a half ago. Since moving to the area almost 9 years ago, it's the only place that's kept my interest for more than a year. Unlike a lot of places that focus on bumping music and flashy lights (although the jams at MAD are good), they focus on form/safety/overall well-being. Even though I know how to do most if not all of the movements, I still benefit from corrections and adjustments in every class. On top of the great training, the MAD community is awesome. Other attendees are friendly, welcoming to new people, and bring great energy to every class. No matter your current fitness level or future fitness goals, MADabolic will help you get there and stay there.
Went here for a free workout and loved it. The instructors explain are very informative and make sure you are pushing yourself as well as performing the workouts correctly. I was impressed but the organization of the workouts using a 9 rounds method. Making it more of a hybrid group/ individual workout. Everyone working on separate things but still in a group setting.
Great work out + authentic and welcoming staff - do yourself a favor and try out their promotional offer. It's a hard 50 min, but your body and mind will thank you, and you just might find yourself signing up for a membership.
Boutique gym, with new workouts each day. Smaller class sizes, engaged trainers and very clean (no gym smell) space... off-peak class packages are great value too if the "boutique gym" prices make you hesitate.
MADabolic is a world class training facility with a great setup that is scalable for wide range of fitness levels. As a fitness professional myself, I was highly impressed with the staff as coaches on form, their workout setup, and systems to safely progress their clients. If I lived here, I'd join in a heartbeat! Thanks for letting me try it for the week while in town.
Madabolic is the best workout in the DMV. The members also make it a wonderful community of health, fitness, and fun. Great gym and always a challenge. True athletic training.
Love how everyone that works at MAD cares about my success. They not only get excited for me when I achieve my goals or move up in weights, they ensure that I do so properly and give advice when needed. I feel like a part of a little family and everyone is so supportive! I trust the workout schedules and the trainers with my form.
Workout. Facility. People. Instructors. Owners.
A workout that has variety and is tough everyday, whether or not you wanted to coast. The thought process and design of the program makes sense and produces results that would take much longer at other gyms.
The gym is clean and equipment is in good and safe shape. The equipment in the gym allows variety in the workout and caters to what members need.
The culture of the gym - some may call us a cult, and that's ok because were as close as family. And I hope that new members feel welcome into the gym.
Of course the staff. Their attentiveness to form and details is unparalleled. They care about your success and cheer you on making sure that you get there SAFELY.
The owners are apart of the process. Far too often you don't see the owners at gyms and don't feel like they themselves don't buy into the process. Here at Madabolic, it is quite the opposite. You are working out along side the owners. They care about your success not just your money.
Personal and friendly. Vickie was great to learn from and made me feel very confident for my first time at MADabolic! The workout was challenging yet allowed me to work at my own pace. This is an excellent program for those who are looking for community, strength training, and variety in their workouts!
Corbin rules - he gives it to you... And tells you when your form is off or what you can do to make your workouts more effective.
Ellie is great too. She is very encouraging.
10 bucks for 10 days?! Who wouldn't take advantage of that.. tell your friends.
Fantastic HIIT workouts led by awesome trainers. Easily burn 500+ cals in 35 minutes.
What I love about MADabolic is that I don't have to think about or plan my workouts. I just show up and know I'm getting a well rounded awesome workout. The only thing I do have to think about it my form (which the trainers help with anyway) and what weight I'll be using (wide range of weights for increasing your strength). They change up the movements and intervals so you're never bored or feel like the workouts are repetitive. After 6 months here I feel great! My energy levels are up, my strength and endurance have increased tremendously & I've come to realize how much I appreciate having a go on the bags every morning as a great means of stress relief. All around great place & great workout!
Great workouts. No two are the same:) Everything about my experience was super positive. Great social presence, very friendly on day 1 and subsequent visits. I LOVE the space--it's roomy and clean and you're not on top of the person next to you. If I wasn't moving from Rosslyn to SW I would have signed up. If you guys open a location in DC I will def sign up!! Keep up the good work!!
One of the best choices I have made since moving to DC was joining MADabolic. I am stronger. I have more energy. I have a community. As someone who works full time and goes to school at night, I needed something that would get my butt out of bed early in the morning. I found it with MAD. Side note - I was just in NYC and tried some workout classes there, fully expecting them to be snooty but also amazing. You know what? Unsurprisingly, MADabolic beats every single "high-end" NYC fitness class I tried.
