MADabolic Alexandria - Gym in Alexandria - 704 N Washington St, USA

I am about a month in and new to the MADabolic workouts/gym, and I can't praise it enough for its excellence. The staff was exceptional in every way, from their warm welcomes to their dedication to helping each participant. The workouts were not only effective but also incredibly fun, making the challenging exercises enjoyable. What stood out most was the caring nature of the staff—they genuinely care about my progress and well-being. One of the things I appreciated the most was the attention to detail in every aspect of the class, from the exercise routines to the equipment. What really sets MADabolic apart is that every day brings a different workout, keeping things fresh and exciting. If you're looking for a gym that combines excellence, fun, caring staff, and a variety of challenging workouts, MADabolic is the place to be and the ALEXANDRIA location is my favorite and one travel to! Highly recommended!

Madabolic Alexandria exceeded my expectations! The instructor's expertise and energy pushed me through a great workout. The facility is top-notch, and I left feeling empowered and energized. Highly recommended for a challenging and rewarding fitness experience.

Fantastic experience. Been going there for just about six weeks and have already seen improvements in my strength, endurance, balance/stability, and visible muscle tone. Classes are fun and different, and always challenging. It’s what I wished Barry’s would be during the weights portion — an actual trainer giving feedback and correcting form so you don’t hurt yourself! Also, there’s a huge range of people and body types represented here. It’s not bro-y at all (despite the “are you MAD” marketing which gave that impression a little :) Lots of women lifting heavy which is awesome.

My husband and I are part of Madabolic in Charlottesville, VA. We recently traveled to Alexandria, and even while traveling we got to have the same fantastic workout we are used to. This is such a great franchise! We really enjoyed the Alexandria location. Same great set-up and equipment, and the Mad coaches (Gordy and Sara) had great enthusiasm and were very friendly and engaged. Loved it!

I cannot say enough good things about Mad Alx. I have tried every group fitness class there is. Mad doesn’t even fit in that category. From day 1 the focus has been on perfecting form to create the proper foundation for building strength. As someone who struggles with a chronic injury from a previous gym that prioritized reps over form, I am so appreciative that I’ve found a gym where I’ve continued to lift heavier over the past two years and haven't once been sidelined by injury. The workouts are challenging but fun, and the focus on basic movement patterns allows me to continue to improve instead of doing 17 random movements at a station that get me no where. The workout speaks for itself, but what keeps me coming back are the people. I realize this sounds cliche and all gyms talk about their community, but Mad walks the walk. The trainers and other members not only care about their own goals, but the goals of everyone else working in the room with them, whether it’s your first workout or your 500th. What more could you ask for from a gym than a science-based, safe and effective workout with some of the strongest and nicest people in this city?

Been coming for four weeks now and I get a great different workout each time I come in. Everyone is friendly and help you out on the workout. Glad I joined to get a great workout and get back in shape. Love how it’s a no judgement zone :).

I was first introduced to MADabolic through CLASSPASS. I was looking for something to supplement offseason training as a soccer referee. The workouts are efficient, well-explained, and focused on quality over quantity. As someone who has tried Crossfit, F45, Row House, and just about every other HIIT-style workout, I like MADabolic's approach to strength training: balanced, varied, with no "ego lifting." The coaches and clients are focused on increasing strength and stamina. The movements are practical: no handstand walking or overhead barbell squats; compound movements, boxing, and endurance activities. It serves as a perfect cross training opportunity.

Love madabolic! It’s a great workout with a good variety of exercises incorporated. You can easily adjust based on your experience/strength level. Trainers really know their stuff and are always providing tips and feedback to improve your form.
