I have been to multiple studios in different states and OTF Pentagon City has the rudest front desk staff. The past two years I have dropped in here and they were always nice but the past month I have felt so uncomfortable, I will not be returning.

I've never got excited about the gym in my entire life, but OTF have changed that perspective for me. What I like about it is the challenge to push yourself on your own pace and compare yourself to your peers.

Highly recommended if you are looking for a non-boring studio workout which combines high intensity burst w strength and endurance training. At the end of the class, you also know how many calories you have lost! The front office staff and trainers are a cheerful, fun bunch and I always get quick replies to all my text based queries. I love my classes.

April 2019- Just a quick update. Almost 3 years in and I still absolutely love OTF! The workouts remain challenging as they are ever changing. If you're looking for a new workout I highly recommend OTF and the Pentagon City location!

Original Review- I grew up playing sports (tennis, basketball, soccer and competitive swimming) and so don't feel right if I'm not working out. Since college, I've mainly run (with a little bit of swimming and occasional weights) to stay in shape, and since around 9 years ago have done a couple of half marathons and ten milers each year in addition to shorter races (and one full marathon in 2011). In the 3 years prior to 2016 I'd experienced 2 significant injuries each year and so knew that I really needed to cross-train more.

OTF opened in the building next door and so I decided to try it out. And... I love it. I chose the 8 classes per month package as I do still run. I've loved the workouts and the instructors and do feel that adding OTF has contributed to elevating my overall level of fitness. I started in August, and in October ran the Army Ten Miler (for the 4th time, but first time uninjured). Although not my 10-miler PR, it was the fastest 10-miler I'd run in quite a while and more importantly, I felt great doing it. Since then I've run 3-5 shorter races, and again, although not PRs, they've been the fastest I've run in quite a while.

I love that the workouts are designed in such a way that people at different levels of fitness can participate and get a great workout. The treadmill portion is broken down by directions for Runners, Joggers, and Walkers and you will see people at each level every time you are there (and there is a bike and a strider for those who may not currently be able to use the treadmill due to injury, etc). For other exercises, the coaches will show variations. The coaches push you, but not past what you are capable of. I've had days where I haven't been able to do what I normally can, and have let up, and nobody has made me feel bad about it. I also love that it's a group workout and you can have fun with others in the class.

If you are looking to add something new to your workout routine, I highly recommend OTF Pentagon City!

I have had a very positive experience so far at OrangeTheory on S. Fern. I took advantage of the free first class for local residents - Lauren was very helpful in setting everything up. On the morning of, Rachel was a rockstar and gave me a great introduction to the facility, the goals of the class, and the equipment. The instructor, Dani, was awesome - very personable, knowledgeable, and motivating without being loud or intimidating. I bought a 10 class pack and have been going once a week...I look forward to it and I'm already seeing results! I think I'll keep this as a part of my weekly regiment moving forward.

Love it here, this place makes working out fun. The team is so encouraging and welcoming for people that are not use to working out.

Staff is warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. Coach Josh is great. Facilities are very nice and clean. 2hr free parking below building is convenient. Other members are also very courteous and encouraging.

Great location, instructors are motivating and energetic, and staff is friendly and professional. Gives me the best workout and pushes me to my max, which is something I couldn't do on my own. I would highly recommend the studio to anyone interested in trying out OTF!

All of the trainers are so motivational. They make sure everyone is properly doing the workouts, the music is always great, the front desk staff is friendly and the location is always clean.

Best workouts, great team, love having an hour that is planned out with a trainer and others all doing it together. Plus the workouts are different and the whole body is moving. Thank you!!

The workouts are NEVER boring, and always super challenging. All the coaches are encouraging and cheerful, and the staff is equally lovely to work with. And I've seen real changes in my body composition -- I'm losing fat, building muscle, and feel great in my own skin. I love my OTF days!

It was non-competitive yet very motivating. I never worked out with a group before and will definitely be back.

OTF is awesome. I've recently joined the studio at Pentagon City, Va. I've had Shayna and Monica and they are both very attentive, encouraging and helpful to everyone. I like that they focus on good form on all the exercises. I am out of breath every time I am walking out of my work out. The staff working in the front are really nice too. Hannah and Mikaela were both very informative and are actually one of the reasons I joined this place.

Orange Theory is the hardest workout I've ever done. It's competitive and fun and it pushes me beyond my normal limits. I love the music, the always changing exercises and the motivating coaches. I feel like I learn and improve with every class I attend.

The coaches are motivating and I love the structure and variety of the classes. I felt lost and unmotivated at the gym, but not at OT.

January 23, 2018 14:02

I really enjoy all that OTF haves to offer. The results that I see from the workouts are exciting and keeps my motivation up to continue doing my part by showing and completing workouts that are well put together. It's great to have the trainers there to give you the extra push you might not feel you can muster up!! Once you join you will not be disappointed the results are awesome.

The music and workout kept me motivated...it was tough, but doable. You can modify as you need. The staff and trainers are AMAZING!

Never been a big gym guy, but this is structured differently than most gyms. The instructors/coaches/motivators are each different, and move the process along seamlessly. I was a little apprehensive (not quite the right word), about the price, but for the butt kicking that I have received the past 5 months I've been a member, is well worth it. Sadly, there are no Orangetheory places near my permanent home in NW PA, and there isn't a pool (minor to say the least), but overall, best gym experience I've had in a long, long time.

It's dynamic at every level. Not just every fitness level, but as you get better it grows with you, always challenging you to be better, stronger, faster. The workouts themselves are dynamic working on muscles we can see and cardio vascular health, as well as mixing it up every time. I've been an unlimited member for over a year and never have I encountered the same workout twice. Love it

I have worked out at a variety of gyms and studios for years. I live a very active lifestyle. However, there is something really unique about OTF that just gets me motivated. I think it's the people, the music and the numerous time options for classes. Currently I belong to OTF Pentagon City and love the staff! Alex, Hannah, Lora and the whole crew are always so pleasant and positive and welcoming at the desk. The instructors are amazing - Monica rocks! George is also super! Yesterday I had Dany for the first time and today I had Geron. All are amazing. Thanks for an incredible experience!

I like that it's different & challenging each time. The coaches are amazing & motivating. The music is great! The staff is friendly. I look forward to seeing everyone each time I go. The best part is that I'm seeing the results of my hard work!!!! Thank you so much OTF-Pentagon City!!!
