can’t say enough good things about this place. top-tier training facility for those looking to improve overall athleticism and performance. the environment is kept extremely clean and sanitary at all times. and a small perk that no one seems to mention here is that the music can be adjusted with an accessible iPad. I do wish Epic had more of a locker room/changing area and a full length mirror or two vs. just a restroom. but the gym itself is unparalleled. keep up the good work, Joe!

Basic gym for resistance training. Machines are quality and Joe is friendly and helpful. Unlike other gyms, EAC is never overcrowded. Access is 24 hr, and you get your own access. As a trainer, Joe’s methodology is to use slow reps to increase how much muscles work. He also promotes good diet and external activity, such as walking. I am over fifty with knees that complain when I go up stairs. So, I have my own issues. Even so, I’ve seen good results with Joe’s regimen. He really cares about his clients. This place is great for the serious jock, but not intimidating for the novice with issues. This is place is a gem in Reston.

To say Epic is the best gym I’ve been a part of is somehow an understatement. Through my 4 years of searching for a gym that I can call home, Epic has finally filled that gap. The coaches and gym members show nothing but respect, and the atmosphere of the gym makes you want to train to the best of your ability. The quality of equipment and variety of bars, dumbbells, & exercise tools makes Epic more than special. If you’re looking for a non-commercial, friendly but competitive gym, Epic is it.

Excellent facility, staff, and atmosphere! Members receive 24/7 access which is great for those with busy schedules. Perfect for those who are serious about their training and want a more private (much less crowded) alternative to a commercial gym. Joe is always responsive to his members’ needs and will encourage you to reach your goals.

Highly recommend Epic. Found this gym when Gold's gym (without notice) closed on us. Have been training with Joe ever since. Very professional and flexible. Great quality in equipment and reasonably priced. My wife has also joined and she also only has great things to say. Wished we had found Epic Athletic Center sooner.

Epic Athletic Center is a great internship location to learn more about sports performance and overall health. Joe has many years of experience in the field and is very knowledgeable on all subjects regarding fitness and athletics. Talking with Joe for a couple of months during the internship accelerated my learning because he was able to take complex concepts and explain them in ways I would better understand. He was always available to answer my questions and as I began to understand his philosophies and methods, we could have conversations regarding higher level topics. I appreciate the time I spent with Joe at Epic Athletic Center and recommend it for anyone who wants to improve athletic performance and fitness for themselves or other people.

Epic Athletic Center is a superb place to train. Joe is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and will help you reach your goals. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Within the first day or two of meeting, he set me up with a personalized fitness plan, nutrition program, and other guidelines. He also checked in when I was at the gym, was on hand for questions, and always made time to talk even when busy. He stresses the basics: effort, technique, consistency. There are no gimmicks here, just solid advice and encouragement. The facility itself has all of the equipment you will need, with an excellent set of new machines and ample free weights, etc. It is also kept very clean. The feel of the place is more like a friendly fitness club than a gym. It is never too crowded and there are usually a handful of people working out during normal business hours which makes the training feel more of a group effort. All in all, Joe is the best of the best. I know that his advice will stick with me for years to come, not only with training, but also with sleep, nutrition, and goal-setting. Thanks again, Joe!

Epic has been the perfect gym to get me back into a regular exercise lifestyle. I began with one-on-one training with Joe who is very knowledgeable and an expert in his field. That personal training has set me up for success to continue my "strength training." Thanks Epic!

I am glad to have found Epic since moving to Reston! With my busy schedule, I wanted a conveniently located gym I can go train without interruption between what equipment is available and Epic certainly delivers that and so much more! The owner of the gym Joe is genuinely nice, with 11 plus years of experience, he is the epitome of practice what you preach. His words of wisdom on health and training is foundational to my health and wellness! I have done 8 personal training sessions and not only do I look great/ feel great. I always walk out those doors feeling accomplished, empowered, & inspired!

Easily the best gym in the area. 24/7 access for members, solid equipment that is constantly upgraded, a member base that takes care of the place, and an owner that has a wealth of knowledge and is more than willing to help out. Highly recommend.
