Amazing business run by amazing people. Live online streaming of classes plus an extensive video library, and all online which is very convenient during the pandemic. Multiple classes a day during convenient times and trainers always available to answer questions over email/text about workouts or nutrition or anything else. Highly recommend for your daily dose of endorphins and serotonin. These guys will get you through the pandemic!

I have a really hard time getting motivated to work out by myself, which is why I love these zoom classes. Even though I’m technically alone, I’m working out with an awesome group of people who are also technically alone. And no mask required!Also, the coaches are awesome and the programming is solid. I highly recommend giving Prime Fitness a try!

Zoom workouts with Prime literally saved my sanity during the pandemic. The workouts can easily be done at home but still have a tremendous amount of variety even with minimal equipment. Yes, you could do something similar on your own, but being able to log on to chat with people before, during and after the workout as well as being pushed in real time is a huge plus for me. Plus theres a trainer there to offer cues and corrections in my form and technique to help prevent injuries. Highly recommend!

I started at Prime Fitness “in gym” in July of 2019. I had been working out for several years in a big box gym with minimal results but at least I was moving. There wasn’t much help or instruction unless you signed up with a trainer. I wasn’t too impressed with the training sessions I observed. I joined Prime on the recommendation of a friend. Within months I saw and felt a difference in my body and the way I moved as well as improving my balance due to coaching and structured targeted workouts.Fast forward to Covid quarantine. Many of us were working out 5 & 6 days a week. What were we going to do now? Prime didn’t miss a beat and quickly started providing Zoom and outdoor alternatives. Today I work out 5 days a week on Zoom. I love my 2 minute commute from my bedroom to the basement. The workouts are as good as ever but what I really like is because I am working out by myself I am taking my time to perfect my form which is giving me even greater results.All of us have varying pieces of equipment and options are always provided so everyone is covered. Everyone works at their own level. Trainers still provide the same great level of coaching, correction and motivation. I know I would not be working this hard on my own. If you are looking for a top quality program on Zoom that will provide results Prime is it.

Prime Fitness is truly the best. I have been participating with them for several years, now, and I truly cant say enough good things. The owners, Eric & Christy, are true professionals. But theyre also fun, motivating and caring. They provide engaging group instruction via Zoom as well as help with a specific goal, injury recovery or nutritional advice. They are completely committed to fitness and a healthy lifestyle. You should join. Try us out. Youll work hard, and youll love it. Really!

Getting a great workout in 45 minutes or less per day. Each day focuses on a different part of the body. During class you get feedback and postures corrected while being challenged to grow.

Eric and Christy are the best. They have been so resilient during the COVID pandemic and they are always coming up with new ideas to keep everyone engaged. I was hesitant to try the zoom classes. But once I did I absolutely love them. Each day is a new routine and new challenges. I look forward to them. Christy develops amazing routines and Eric and Matt are great trainers. I’m committed to exercising and staying with them.

Prime Fitness is the Subaru of gyms: sturdy, reliable, and powered by love. Before COVID-19, it was a wonderful place to work out, with boot-camp style circuit training classes available several times a day on site. Simple, straightforward, gritty and fun, it was a place to set goals and shred them--or at least have a lot of fun trying! These past nine months it has evolved into a lifeline to health and community, with ZOOM classes that allow members to check in, work out, and continue to make fitness a priority despite the limitations of lockdown.Prime is a family business that makes its customers part of the family. Owners Eric and Christy are constantly finding ways to add value, whether that means loaning out equipment, providing private fitness check-ins by phone, or setting up challenges like this Januarys Consistency Challenge. Its all designed to teach members how to prioritize health and fitness, while having fun, doing good, and developing meaningful relationships within the community.Prime Fitness has driven my fitness journey for more than three years now, through injury, recovery, weight loss, backslide, 5Ks, terrain races, and quarantine. Its been an amazing ride.

Were going on a year since COVID-19 shut down gyms in Montgomery County, and Prime Fitness has been doing a masterful job of pivoting from offering small group high-intensity interval training, strength, endurance and agility workouts in person to offering them online.The owners, Eric and Christy, did everything to make the transition go well, offering class times based on client requests, helping clients in securing equipment, modifying workouts as needed for the various equipment that clients may have in their at-home gym spaces and even offering outdoor classes with distance between clients (during warmer weather), all in the name of keeping everyone fit during this challenging time.At a time when fitness is very critical (obesity has led to poorer outcomes for those who contract COVID-19), its also harder to access for many people. Prime Fitness has solved that problem by offering convenient online classes, live, up to 5 times per day on weekdays.If youre looking to get back into fitness because you no longer are going to a physical gym for health/safety reasons, Prime Fitness is the perfect solution. It helps take the equipment you may already have or can quickly obtain and gives you the structure and motivation to use it, and to use it the right way.

Prime Fitness is a fabulous studio fitness business! They seamlessly pivoted to support the members by broadcasting 24 workouts online weekly (M-Sa) to accommodate every schedule! All you need to have is internet and you can workout from where you are! They also have created a vault of recorded workouts that are accessible 24/7. Eric and Christy Giroux run a professional, science driven program that has become a cornerstone of health to the community!

Prime Fitness is without a doubt the best gym Ive ever joined. If you have a sincere desire to get in shape, get stronger and more flexible, and increase your overall health, then you owe it to yourself to check out Prime. It is not a traditional gym. There are no nautilus machines, nor are there a bunch of free weights. Instead, there are daily fitness classes that are designed by people who clearly know what they are doing. Any given workout is challenging on its own, but when you attend each day you see how the workouts are really building off of each other. The workouts are always challenging but they are always different and there is a definite sense of fun and humor involved. The other members are supportive. We are not meatheads about it, but we definitely motivate each other. All I can tell you is that I have gotten into some kind of good shape over the past few months. Showing up is half the battle.

Update:Still feel the same as I did when classes were in person per the previous review ⬇ fitness classes are done via zoom now. I get the personal attention from the trainer in every class to ensure Im not guessing at proper form. The workouts are challenging. They keep me interested, accountable and coming back for more.Previous review:Hard to express how awesome I feel after boot camp class. It is absolutely the most effective workout that one could possibly do in 30 minutes.Boot camp class at prime fitness is the highlight of my day.

Prime Fitness is a great place to work out. The people you work out with each day are nice and friendly. The group classes are intense, varied and never boring. Eric and Christy are working hard everyday to help each person achieve and succeed at their own personal fitness goals.

I love the workouts, even though all the coaches are so happy at 5:20am!!! The trainers really are very knowledgible, care about your form, and do really well meeting you where you are, while pushing you just enough for improvement. I am really glad joined in August, I feel stronger every day.Fast forward to Feb 2019:I have been at Prime Fitness since August 2018, and in that time I have lost approx. 20lbs. More in important than the weight, I have gained flexibility, strength, and an amazing group of accountability partners. Prime Fitness is the right fit for me to be in fit in the prime of my life 💪🏿🏋🏾‍♀️❤

Prime Fitness has been a great experience for me! Truly enjoy the small boot camp class size and making mutual friends in pain! Plus getting the workout done early morning works best for my schedule. I also like that the workout routines change daily, and the various challenges (like the one encouraging me to post right now!) which will hopefully lead to true lifestyle changes!🍾🥂🤸‍♂️

I love this place. I’ve been going for many years, on and off. When I have stopped it’s been because of health issues but not working out has made me feel terrible. I’ve been back since late October 2018 and my life is once again changed. This is not just a gym, it’s a family of caring people who want you to succeed and be your best.

My wife and I have been going to this gym for the last 7 month and we have been amazed by the quality of the trainers, the other members, and the sense of community. The owners - Erik and Christy- are very knowledgeable and they work to tailor a fitness and diet plan to meet your goals. It is great to see people of varying fitness level giving it their all at every workout. If you are looking for a group of trainers to help you meet your fitness goals, a great community atmosphere, and overall quality experience, I highly recommend Prime Fitness!

Update: My review below hasn’t changed. The only difference is we now workout over zoom due to the pandemic. Eric and Christy, the owners of Prime Fitness, have gone above and beyond for their clients. They have let us borrow equipment, hold numerous classes each day M-Sa to accommodate everyone, post videos on stretching techniques, plan motivational challenges, and a lot more. But one of the best aspects is the interaction with the instructors and clients, all of whom I now consider friends. Even over zoom you can have an amazing workout while having fun! They truly are special!I’ve always exercised but mostly focused on cardio. When Prime was recommended I thought I’d give it a try. After the first day, albeit sore, there was no looking back. I love the many different class times offered that work with my schedule. I love the quick, intense workout and the changes I’ve seen in myself. I love all the instructors and the uniqueness each one brings to a class. But most of all, I love the camaraderie, the family atmosphere and the laughter through the sweat and almost tears!!

Prime Fitness transitioned to online Zoom workouts last year as the pandemic continued to escalate. While I was prepared for a different workout experience I couldn’t have anticipated how much fun it would be to workout in a virtual environment or how the owners, Christy and Eric Giroux, would maintain the tight knit community and camaraderie of live, in-person group fitness classes. Honestly, Prime Fitness has been the key to maintaining a routine for my physical and mental health during the months of uncertainty and unrest. The workouts are always challenging and the nutritional guidance, fitness challenges and wholistic support are the reason I’ve been a member since 2014. If you’re looking to incorporate fitness as a component to a healthier lifestyle and you need expert guidance and a supportive community, then give Prime a try.

I joined Prime Fitness in January 2015 because my previous fitness routine wasnt working. I was recovering from an injury, wasnt motivated and I needed a good kick in the arse. I got it from the day 1. I entered on a trial membership and I still get it every time I walk into Prime.Who would have thought Id continue to feel stronger and more fit as I age (and approach 50 😲). Certainly not me.... but yet here I am.They continue to have highly trained coaches who know how to motivate you, kindly provide corrections, and offer adjustments based on limitations due to injuries, body structure or soreness/discomfort.Over my four years working out at Prime Fitness thru boot camps, strength & conditioning, and cardio & core classes, Ive lost weight (25 lbs as of today and counting), improved my strength, improved my shape, made clothes shopping more enjoyable, improved my sleep, truly learned how to eat and feel full, feel good about myself and my body, and even made friends.The experience and community at Prime Fitness is nothing like you get from the big box gyms.Keep up the good work, Prime Fitness and thank you for creating programming and a community that is 2nd to none.
