1TO1 Fitness, the DC Metro area’s highly respected personal training company, has announced the opening of its new Bethesda Studio in January 2025. Conveniently located at 5400 Westbard Ave #290, 1TO1 continues its mission here in Bethesda – “Great trainers creating a welcoming, motivational environment and helping our clients enhance their lives through exercise.”
In 1987, 1TO1 Fitness opened the DC area’s first fitness center, dedicated exclusively to personal training, in Tysons Corner, VA. Since then, 1TO1 has expanded with additional facilities in Reston and Great Falls, Virginia, Washington DC, Potomac, Maryland, and now in late January, Bethesda.
“Our goal is to help each of our clients exercise safely, effectively, and consistently, feel great, and enjoy their training experience every single session,” says Doug Vasiliadis, Founder and President.
“We train a wide variety of clients including woman and men of all ages and fitness levels. We have student athletes, new Moms, businesswomen and men, homemakers, and retirees. Every client is unique and many value personal training for different reasons. Some clients enjoy the added motivation and accountability a personal trainer provides; some clients love detailed instruction and learning new exercises and enjoy training sessions with lots of variety. Many clients with medical or orthopedic issues rely on trainers to help keep exercise safely without getting injured. Other clients appreciate being challenged to train a bit harder than they would without a trainer but not so hard that they feel at risk or overwhelmed. We love it when clients do more than they thought they could do but leave their sessions feeling great and feeling a sense of accomplishment.”
Of course, with such a wide variety of clients 1TO1 implements a wide variety of exercises and training methodologies. Clients’ programs are based on their individual goals, current fitness level, medical history, time availability, scheduling preferences, and other activities, if any, they participate in.
While all client’s programs are individualized, in general we aim to help enhance our client’s movement quality through functional compound movements, integrated core conditioning, and promoting mobility, stability, good posture, balance and coordination” says Pat McCloskey, co-owner and Director of Training and Trainer Education. “We aim to keep workouts diverse and effective, ensuring each client trains at the ideal intensity level for them to help them achieve the best results.”
Over the past 3 decades, 1TO1 has earned an excellent reputation for the extremely high caliber of the 1TO1 trainers and for the excellent customer service the company provides. 1TO1 trainers have BS or MS degrees in exercise science, a variety of industry certifications, and all complete 1TO1’s extensive in-house trainer development program administered by McCloskey.
In addition to 1TO1’s great trainers and great programming, another aspect of 1TO1 that clients love is the warm, positive, welcoming environment 1TO1 creates and the relationships they develop with the training team as well as other clients from all walks of life. “We are very grateful and proud to have clients who have been with us for 15 to 30 years, alongside trainers who have also been part of the 1TO1 family for decades.”
