LA Fitness

Diversity is good! Crowded on Weekdays- machines are good.nDoesn’t justify the price if you are just into working out- and not other activities such as Swimming, Zumba, basketball etc.

Amazing fitness facility with a nice swimming pool. Swim lessons are available from British Swim School.

Not my favourite LA location.nnPros: staff are friendly and the gym itself is spacious all cardio upstairs, decent women’s area, convenient location right off the 401nnCons: Bathrooms are often really dirty. I find equipment is also always missing? Hard to find a pair of dumb bells and a lot of barbells missing from squat racks/benches, especially at peak times makes it hard to get a decent workout innCleaning equipment is also not enforced/encouraged it seems. I appreciate other gyms for the additional signage. Have been regularly going to LA locations over the past 4 years and unfortunately after Covid simmered down, no one seems to care about wiping down equipment after using. That being said, cleaning liquid not always filled/available.

I've enjoyed my time at this location immensely. My trainer Victoria has been such a great help. After I tore my ACL I understandably had a hard time getting back to doing things I used to. Victoria has helped so much, I initially couldn't even do lunges without my leg stinging and now I'm able to do everything I was able to before and more. While it took a lot of work, Victoria made sure I had a proper workout plan in place that helped me gradually strengthen those muscles back.nnShe communicates well and gives me lots of pointers in ways I can process; changing the way she instructs so I can better understand things. She's patient and understanding but also helps motivate. I've seen so much change not just in the way I look but in my endurance- which was the whole reason I joined the gym in the first place.nnOverall, great site, great trainers- if you're looking into trying PT, definitely give Victoria a chance!

We signed up for a membership at this location today, and I want to start by saying that Asher, who helped us with the membership process, was incredibly nice and professional. He made us feel welcomed and clearly explained all the membership perks, out of which one happens to be a free consultation with their coaches. Unfortunately, the experience with the coach we were referred to for the free consultation was extremely disappointing.nnThe consultation began with the coach conducting a detailed assessment of our physical abilities, weight, and height, which seemed fine at first. However, the situation quickly became uncomfortable. The coach was incredibly pushy about getting us to sign up for a personal training plan and insisted we make a decision on the spot. Despite us repeatedly saying we needed time to think about it, he continued pressuring us. At one point, he even said he would leave the room for five minutes to let us “think it over,” which felt manipulative and unnecessary.nnTo make matters worse, he used the body fat percentage he had assessed earlier to gaslight us, implying we weren’t prioritizing our health by not committing immediately. He even went as far as questioning our decision-making skills, which felt completely uncalled for. The entire ordeal lasted over an hour, leaving us frustrated and uncomfortable.nnI understand the importance of sales and marketing in this type of business, but there is a clear difference between promoting a service and making customers feel harassed. This level of high-pressure sales tactics is unacceptable.nnAsher was fantastic, but this experience with the coach has made me reconsider attending this location. Since I already have the membership, I plan to switch to a different branch because the thought of encountering this coach again is frustrating and off-putting.
