Some staff attempt to clean, most are standing around doing nothing in groups. No sanitary wipes in any dispensers today, no soap in the bathroom, I mean come on, I know it's a discount gym but wtf. Oh yeah, bring your earbuds cause all they play is the same station with heavy, bass pumpin' rap. Try and diversify a bit for your clientele! I'd give 0 stars if I could.

Been going to this location for 4 years. Good facilities, good hours, good range of equipment,…read morestaff has been great...except one of the new closers. Went in today. Gym closes at 10pm. Finished my workout at 10. Left the lockerroom at 10:02pm. One of the staff comes up and says, "Oh! We're in after-hours, did you not know we close at 10?" I told her I knew, and she responds, "Oh really?" while pointing at the clock. Came off pretty strong. Super passive-aggressive and it was out of proportion to the situation. Been working in customer service over a decade, and it's a given that customers stick around after closing. Yes, it's annoying when customers stay 5+ minutes after closing. But 2 minutes doesn't warrant that kind of response. Not to mention she turned off the gym lights at 9:50pm. If working 2 minutes after closing is such a burdensome inconvenience, then why would you take a closing shift? If you hate closing that much, then don't agree to it. It doesn't make sense, and it doesn't warrant being a jerk to strangers. Never been an issue with the other staff in 4 years, they're super chill.

You will not find the infrared lighting service at this gym but this service would be a great addition. My only other issue is the cleanliness of the women's locker room.

By the way, majority of the drinks are half off with your black card except the Red Bull which is BOGO.

This is a hard review to write but here is it... This review is not towards Mike but it is towards…read morethe team members that work at the gym. Watch out for them! I will start by saying I have met Mike and I do think he is a good guy. He is out for others well being and wants to help however the end goal of the gym is to make money. The story; my cousin and I bought a groupon for 3 personal training classes. We met with a guy named Andrew H.; one of Mike's trainers. Andrew worked us out good and at the end of the third session Andrew and Mike both asked my cousin if we want to continue and we said no because the gym is not what we wanted. Mike let it go but Andrew then reached out to us and said he would train us at our homes, use our gyms; he gave us a killer deal and we started working out with him. The story gets good when Andrew gets a check from my cousin and cashes it in but then signs her up for a travel company called World Ventures/ VacationSooner.com and he starts taking endless amounts of money out of her accounts. He basically took the checking information and played with all her accounts. She was able to close one account out but then realized she got hit with the same charges on another account. The banks and credit teams gave her Andrew's name and said he is the one taking all the money out of her accounts and he now has the fraud and police after him. Long story short, you will get a killer workout here, there is no question there but pay with cash; you never know who will take your money from the gym. Save yourself the hassle of dealing with banks and crazy people that don't know how to respect their employer or their clients. Needless to say - we fired Andrew two weeks in because he had more excuses then we could take. Bottom line just be careful; pay with a cash and learn from us do not sign up for personal training classes; you will get cheated!

My boyfriend joined this gym using a google offer for unlimited boot camp classes. He raves about…read moreit, and how the offer was such a steal with the quality of workouts he has had. Even paying full price for the classes is an amazing experience. Mike (owner/instructor) is awesome and always smiling, motivating you to do your best, and always willing to answer any questions you may have regarding fitness or nutrition. The boot camp classes were never boring because every time he was doing different workouts and working different muscle groups. This is thanks to Mike's enthusiasm and desire to keep things interesting and effective. If you want to be in an environment with great people to work out with you and a coach that's both invested in what he does and ambitious to grow his company and provide great service, this is the place to be. Thorough recommendations.

Been going to this LA fitness for many years so ive experienced the decline of this location…read morethroughout. This was especially apparent when they made the switch to eSporta back several years ago, which is just a lower cost branding of LA fitness. They eventually reverted this branding back to LA fitness but the effects of these transitions remained - with a lower cost model of 10$ a month, the gym was more packed than ever before, leading to a dirtier and messier environment to which staff just couldnt keep up and probably stopped caring at some point As someone who primarily weight lifts, the state of the facility and staff feels like it retained those same conditions to this day. Dumbbells are still all over the place and hard to find, barbells are missing, 2.5 pounders are more scarce than ever, the same stairmaster machine has been under maintenance for forever, there is a lack of attachments and theyre old and also hard to find, the list goes on There are 4 flat benches, 2 incline and 1 decline. 3 squat racks and 6 adjustable benches. With these numbers and such a large number of patrons, youre always gonna be waiting for equipment with especially long wait times at peak hours after work. I would suggest going after 8pm when things are more calm While I recognize that you get what you pay for and shouldnt have higher expectations for public commercial gyms, ive gone to other la fitness locations in the city where i have had comparatively better quality experiences for my workouts, and while its not always sunshines and rainbows either, the Pershing location sits lower on the scale for me PS: the court inside is permanently volleyball, no basketball at this location!

I'm still pretty baffled by my experience at this studio. I'd never been here before and I was so…read moreextremely excited to find a studio that offered Step aerobics. That excitement was extremely short lived. At one point during my visit there was a guy being trained on the Pilates reformer, the step class AND a separate strength training class in ONE TINY room with no separation. As you can see in the photo those in the step class are steps from the reformers. So distracting!!! The conversation and commentary from the other classes were louder than the music at most times and they weren't even loud...they were just 5 steps away and the music was being played on a small google home. If you don't have the space and equipment to offer your customers the experience they are paying for why offer the class?? If I hadn't paid money to take this class this experience would just have been comically bad but I did. So unacceptable and cheap!

Alyssa is by far the best Pilates instructor I've had. I've taken Pilates at East Bank Club, as…read morewell as Logan square Pilates, and the experience with Alyssa far exceeds any of those. She truly understands bio-mechanics and how the body and mind work together. After suffering with lower back pain for years, and 3 rounds of Physical therapy with no improvement I switched over to Pilates and the improvements have been amazing. Switching from what I call "normal" Pilates to Alyssa was a HUGE step up. My herniated disc has caused my glutes to not fire correctly in certain movements which exacerbates back pain. Working with Alyssa has really helped my brain to help fire the glutes properly. Look bottom line is, she is not your standard Pilates instructor. Alyssa goes way beyond that. She's like a master of understanding the body. If you're a serious athlete, suffer from some form of pain, or just simply want to improve you're bodies functions and feel stronger in a way no other workout can do, Evolve and Elevate is perfect for you.
