Sand and Steel Fitness, a top-rated personal training and fitness gym in Alexandria, Virginia, will expand into a new state-of-the-art training facility on November 1. The new location, two and half times the size of the original gym, is conveniently located at 5418 Eisenhower Avenue in Alexandria's fast-growing West End neighborhood. A one-minute walk from the Van Dorn Metro, right off the Van Dorn Beltway 495 exit, offering plenty of parking, Sand and Steel Fitness is the ideal work-out location for anyone looking for a personal, high-quality fitness experience.
Co-owners Paul Roberts and Dawn Anderson are leaving their South Alfred Street location in Old Town in order to expand offerings and services to clients. In addition to Sand and Steel's proven personal training program, the gym will now be able to offer group classes and an open gym, as well as mobility and nutrition coaching. Classes will include yoga, CrossFit, CoreFit, powerlifting, suspension training via Total Resistance Exercises (TRX), kettlebell work, and more. To celebrate the opening of the new gym, Sand and Steel Fitness is offering 25% off personal training rates, group classes, and workout plans.
"Our expansion is a strategic move to increase member options and value. We want to provide the very best coaches, an ideal environment, along with more classes so clients can get even more out of their relationship with Sand and Steel Fitness," said Roberts. "Our new location will provide free group fitness classes to our Get Steel Strong members, a game-changer for results and value."
Passionate about helping people maintain a healthy body and move safely so that injuries can be prevented, Anderson and Roberts created their personal training program five years ago. Roberts has a background as a biomedical engineer and developed a proprietary methodology by analyzing the data of thousands of individual clients and their workout results. The team works with clients to identify goals and create plans to achieve results in the most efficient and effective way.
"People think that getting healthy is going to be hard or that they can't feel better. With our program, you only need four to six hours per month to start noticing results," added Roberts. "So many of us are living with chronic pain and stress. Our mobility training, Beyond Stretch class, and yoga offerings help reduce those issues and teach effective movement."
In addition to offering personal training and group classes, Sand and Steel offers one-one-one nutrition counseling for building customized diet and weight loss plans. A muscle mass, inflammation, and body fat scan is included with each nutrition session for tracking and modification of the member's existing diet.
Roberts studied biomedical engineering, in addition to computer science, at Johns Hopkins University, and went to law school at Rutgers. He met Anderson in 2010 at the Hogan Lovells law firm. Roberts left the firm after a weightlifting injury left him unable to type, and he began studying fitness and mobility exercises to improve his health and prevent injury. Anderson has fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, and also turned to fitness and nutrition to provide relief. The business partners and engaged couple opened Sand and Steel in 2013.
