I was on the hunt for a personal trainer and chose Elin because of his excellent online reviews. I am glad I did! He is knowledgeable, professional and motivating. He is committed to positive encouragement and takes great pleasure in seeing his clients progress.
Elin is an exceptional listener - he takes time to understand each client's fitness goals and keeps detailed notes. He customizes a program that fits each client's needs and abilities. I am not a fitness fanatic and have rarely spent time in a gym, but Elin makes it all seem accessible. He is also a wonderful communicator - he stays in touch and nudges me back to the gym when needed, without being pushy.
Most significantly, I have seen good results with Elin's help - I have lost 25 pounds and counting, and I am gaining strength and muscle definition.
Elin is always in a good mood and cares about his clients. He accommodates my often-challenging work schedule. I appreciate Elin's excellence, professionalism and expertise, and I am pleased to give Elin Fitness Redefined my highest recommendation.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Cornell S.Washington, DC41352May 4, 2022
I rant and rave to all my friends and family as it relates to my appreciation of the exemplary training and nutrition I received during my training with Richard under Elins purview.
This company is so knowledgeable and performance driven as it relates to diverse understanding and suitability for ensuring your needs with training is tailored to your age, performance, correct posture and stance while working out and most of all; the need to make sure all questions are answered with efficiency and proficiency.
I have traveled all over the world and have engaged a plethora of trainers and coaches and I have not met a corporation who speaks and walks to the same rhythm; meaning many members but one body who's business practices yield exceptional customer service across the board, with yielding great results and a peace of mind for measurable outcomes.
So please understand; if your not serious about commitment and working hard to obtain your goals, this company isn't for you but if you want results with trainers like Richard and Elin, this is the absolute best decision and investment for you health, wealth and peace of mind. I love these guys and I am trully grateful to God and to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for positioning me to find this company.
THIER TIRELESS, UNYIELDING, SELFLESS AND EXEMPLARY PROFESSIONAL EFFORTS ARE GENUINELY APPRECIATED TO THOSE WHO UNDERSTAND HEALTH AND WELLNESS, SO THANKS ELIN AND RICHARD FOR A JOB WELL DONE WITH ME
Best Regards

Working with ELIN Fitness has been amazing. My trainer, Richard, is exceptionally professional and extremely knowledgeable. He taught me a lot about diet management and strength training. Most importantly, he taught me motivation! I'm now eager to get to the gym every day! If you are interested in building muscle, Richard is the guy to work with!
Also, Elin and his team are beyond easy to work with for scheduling to find a routine that works for you. I started off with sessions three times a week out of my house and later to four a week at the amazing DMV Iron Gym. I highly recommend meeting them at the gym, it is a world class facility with no extra cost.
Thank you Elin and Richard!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

so I stayed inside for a year. I studiously avoided people because the idea of Covid truly frightened my family. If you weeks ago I got a good look in the mirror and realized just how far I had fallen out of shape. Truth be told I freaked out a little bit.
Once I calm down I started doing my research. I knew that based on my age I needed to find a specific type of training. I know what to eat. I know how to "train" but i also know how to put it off "until next week". it is so easy to make excuses when you only answer to yourself but finding a program and committing to it drives me.
I was really shocked at the variety of trainers. You have the rah rah coach, You have the coddler, you have the push you til you drop types etc.
I lived in the gym for years. I loved it. Then kids, and age, and life became the excuses and i just quit doing it.
I needed to find someone who could build on my experience and modify my workouts to my age and new goals. I no longer need to spend 2 hours workouts 5 days a week in the gym pushing way to much weight trying to be a better athlete.
I spent quite a bit of time both by phone and email chatting with Elin about my goals. First thing i noticed. Elin listens. He took in the history i gave him and what i would like to achieve moving forward. Elin spent over a week digesting the info i provided on his questionnaires. He clearly was looking for the right fit. The beauty of Elin Fitness Redefined is the great and varied type and styles of trainers.
Day one workout. I have a workout with Ray. He reminds me of my best workout partners from my youth. He is a lifelong athlete. His freestyle wrestling background as well as long term military service let me know immediately that i was working with a guy who would push me in the right way.
Elin checked in on my at the end of each of the first 3 weeks. He didn't just ask the tired "how's it going" type of questions but rather wanted specifics just to make sure i was getting what i needed and he committed to. Client service is a big deal but i actually feel like he knows he can change lives with proper training and that starts with matching the right people.
I told Elin i wanted to work for 10 weeks and see where i was. I have already seen my sessions getting more demanding and Ray tracks my rest times and my need for recovery between sets has dropped dramatically. That is so cool and it motivates me even more. I love the constant variety of exercises. little chance of getting bored here.
Need a jumpstart? Call Elin. Want to be a competitive bodybuilder? Call Elin.
Best time to start is today.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Cj M.Northeast Washington, Washington, DC06Dec 1, 2022
Elin Fitness is outstanding. I've had two trainers with Elin. I've lost a total amount of 53 lbs since working with them. Currently, I'm working out with Joe Moon. He is just over the moon (see what I did there), intelligent and knowledgeable. We work out with body weight and resistance bands. I never knew that you could do so many exercises with resistance bands!! He creates workouts that aren't boring. He introduces new exercises but keeps some that I still need to master. I have great workouts. Joe explains things very well. For days that I don't work out with him, he suggests exercises that I can do on those days to keep me working toward my fitness goals. Also, I was complaining about my shins hurting after my treadmill sprints. He gave me 3 low impact options/workouts to do. I am able to get the same or better workout without the pain! He's personable, fun, and encouraging as well. Elin runs a great business and has great trainers. Joe Moon is top-notch!

New to the area, I did my research to find a company with trainers who could offer a tailored approach to fitness, and I was thrilled to come across ELIN Fitness! After speaking to Elin, he matched me with a fantastic trainer, Joe, who put together specific programs geared to my specific needs, who always managed to fit me into what I have no doubt was an incredibly busy schedule, and who is just an overall super person!! Incredible people, excellent company, and fantastic work and results! Thank you Elin, Joe, and your team! So glad to have found you! Highly recommend!

Elin was one of the best finds of the year! We were at a bit of a lost on how to workout with COVID and he was beyond flexible and adaptable to suit our needs. We signed up for a partner package and our trainer, Bryan, is fantastic. We are always sore after a workout with him. We also both have some injuries and he was excellent at making sure we weren't exacerbating anything and in find alternative workout routines and movements. We saw results pretty quickly and will stick with it!

I'm updating my review as I reached out to Elin prior to my wedding, and had as many sessions with Joe (who is amazing) for about a month prior to my wedding. I can now say that Joe and Elin helped me achieve what I was hoping for! I could not have felt more confident on my wedding day! One of my main goals was to tone my triceps as I have always been insecure about my arms. In fact, I had the seamstress add removable sleeves to my dress in case I did not feel confident enough to go sleeveless. Well, that wasn't a concern, thanks to Joe! I took off my sleeves after the ceremony and felt amazing. I'm attaching a photo that shows the definition I got (there has not been any editing - this is just from a cell phone camera). Am I ready to get on stage and compete? No. But that was not at all my goal. I am so thrilled that I just booked Joe for a bunch more sessions because even though my wedding is over, I know he will help me complete my goal of continued fitness (and confidence!)

Thank you so much for the amazing words, Lindsey! We are so happy and grateful to have the opportunity to work with you!
May 25, 2022Previous reviewI am a relatively experienced gym goer, but had completely stopped working out a 6-9 months before my wedding (not good timing!) because of work. Finally, I asked around and was referred to Elin and I'm so grateful that I reached out to him! He connected me with one of his excellent trainers, Joe, who came to my apartment gym and did a free consultation. It was immediately clear that he had knowledge about not only how to exercise, but how the body works, and What would work best for me considering my goals. Elin was also accessible, and shared his wisdom regarding nutrition, and what my macros should be.
After my consult, I immediately booked a group of 12 sessions, and when I was nearing the end, I contacted Elin to book even more sessions so that Joe can train me every single day up until my wedding. I am so glad that I am now feeling so much better about myself, even in the relatively short amount of time that I have really been working out. I know that I will be a lot more confident on my wedding day thanks to Joe! - Sage M.Columbia, MD03Feb 10, 2022
I have been with Elin and his team for 6 months now and have had the best experience. Everyone is knowledgeable, professional, accommodating, and will get you RESULTS. The training is tailored to you beautifully and very effective. Elin came highly recommended and I'm so glad to have found him and his team!

I can't recommend ELIN Personal Training Redefined and my trainer, Zuzana, highly enough.
After giving birth 2 years ago and returning to work, I've found it impossible to find the time or energy to even plan a workout. Despite years of CrossFit and then expensive personal training at the gym, I felt like I couldn't find any fitness program that I could commit to that would be hands-on yet flexible enough to support a full-time working mom.
It never occurred to me that I could afford personal training that would come to me, and be responsive and flexible enough to schedule on my time, but ELIN and Zuzana provided exactly that. Best of all they are SO responsive and truly care, but don't apply the typical kind of pressure that other personal trainers would push.
Zuzana is ALWAYS prompt, and then emails me the program that we did after. They build the warm-up and stretching into the workout time, so it literally could not be more effortless. ELIN gently checks in and offers dietary guidance as well. Truly an amazing value and comprehensive but personalized program.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
