I belonged to LifeTime in Centreville, but that shit got too expensive. They've had problems over the years - kid drowned, employees stole from lockers. I went to XSport in Fairfax - it's okay but it gets insanely packed during peak hours. There are other issues I've noticed too, such as unattentive staff, cleanliness, and lack of hot water on many occasions. The good thing is that it's cheap and 24/7. XSport in Merrifield is just as bad when it comes to crowding. My friend belongs to 24-Hour Fitness in Tyson's - I went with him a few weeks ago and I liked it a lot. The layout is much better than XSport and it felt so much less crowded. They've got good Yelp reviews too. I've already made the decision to join 24-Hour Fitness when they open their new location in June at the old Sports Authority next to the Fairfax Costco since it'll be super convenient for me. With 24-Hour Fitness, you can find all the prices laid out online (something other places don't do) and you can sign up online and avoid the whole sales pitch thing.
