    Great gym overall. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and has everything you need whether you're lifting heavy, doing cardio, or getting a solid functional workout in. Equipment is in good condition and there's a good variety, so you're not waiting around forever even during busier hours.

    best bodybuilding gym in LA - super clean space, great staff & trainers, lots of protein and pre workouts to choose from, and a great outdoor space. easy parking, and it's pretty much always open so there's usually not a crowd to compete for machines with.

    The perfect spot to get away from a packed commercial gym. The latest equipment was sold after receiving the tour

    There's outdoor equipment so you can soak up some vitamin D while you work out.

    Real old school bodybuilding gym. A rare breed nowadays with all of the commercial gyms around…read more This place absolutely rocks. Dbs go to 160 and they got all the machines you need and some you've never seen. Absolutely fantastic. The owner is around and he is a great dude. I've been to a ton of gyms and this is right up there with any of them. Great gym for those serious about working out or those who want to start and learn. Everyone is very friendly and respectful but if you want to roll in not say anything to anyone and go to work this is also the place for that. Got a lifetime membership immediately. If I could change anything it would be a water refill station but now I'm being picky

    As I mentioned in my previous review, I think the only knock on this gym is that there is not…read moreenough cardio equipment but all that being said it's a lifters gym so that makes sense. The place is always clean, weights are always put away, clientele is always for the most part working out, not carrying on with conversations or taking or making their own video production of their workout because they're an influencer, which don't give me wrong they are still here, but they're far a few between the other gyms. They offer ready-made meals, every kind of protein drink that you can come up with along with waters a place to sit and rest so you really can't go wrong with this gym. The owner Dave, his wife and the staff are all really really, really nice people.

    I had a very uncomfortable experience at the 24 Hour Fitness location at Del Amo Mall in Torrance…read more After finishing my workout on April 10, 2026, I was about to returned to my car and was approached by a manager who asked if I had a cat in my vehicle. I confirmed that I did. He then told me that if he saw my cat in the car again, he would have my vehicle towed. During the same interaction, he claimed that he saw a roach inside my car and implied that I may be responsible for pest issues in the parking lot. This was surprising and concerning, especially because my car had been professionally cleaned inside and out the day before and is in clean condition. For context, my car was parked inside a parking structure, and my window was slightly open to allow airflow for my cat. It is possible that any insect could have come from the surrounding environment rather than originating from my vehicle. Despite this, the manager took photos of my car and issued what he described as a "final warning." He also implied that my membership could be affected based on this situation. I felt uncomfortable, singled out, and treated unfairly as a paying member. I have reported the situation to another location and am waiting for a response from corporate. I hope this is reviewed and addressed so that customers are treated respectfully and professionally.

    I just finished 4 weeks/8 sessions with Dan and I am extremely satisfied with my training!…read more Dan is a professional through and through. He tailored my workouts and listened to me. I read someone here say, he's in his office most of time. I say there is some truth to that but I am glad that he doesn't micromanages me! He is still watching through his computer what is happening on the floor. He saw me struggling finding a balance once and he came right out to correct my posture. He is watching at all times and I appreciate that. I also love the encouragement that the gives me. His statement, "you are not here to try, you are here to work" lives rent-free in my head. I push myself harder because I know he believes I can do it. The fee can be a little steep for others but you get what you pay for . I treat it as an investment I am making for myself. I now sleep better, have more energy and feels stronger physically. Lastly, there are quite a few people I've met who have been at this gym for over 3 years. What does that tell you? Hop on!

    After completing my initial month of training, my primary takeaway is that the owner, Dan,…read moredemonstrates a clear lack of engagement and coaching passion. My friend and I terminated our membership after the first month because the coaching model did not match what was advertised. Dan claims to offer 1:1 personal training or small group sessions, but this was far from the reality. Typically, you have to approach his office door and ask what the workout is for the day. If you ask, he might briefly explain the movements; if you don't ask, he won't proactively offer guidance. Throughout the session, the owner remains seated in his office, observing via monitors. He rarely corrects form or offers instruction because he is not actively supervising the floor. On rare, lucky occasions, he might come out, say a few words, and give you a perfunctory high-five when you finish. I also experienced unprofessional practices regarding both pricing and communication. The day following my inquiry, the advertised 2025 price structure (which was $395 for two sessions per week/per month) was removed from the website, and I was subsequently presented with a new, higher rate. Furthermore, his follow-up email used highly deceptive sales language: "Here is what we have available with ongoing special including $50 OFF every package and it is month to month, no contract required nor any other hidden fees (Nutrition guide is also included in the package.)" 2 x per week = 8 sessions in one month, One month package is $395 The issue is that when I sought clarification, Dan stated that the $395 price we were charged was already the rate after the $50 discount was applied. This setup is highly misleading, as the email aggressively advertises a $50 ongoing special off the package, suggesting a lower final price. If you are looking for the dedicated, hands-on Personal Training (1-on-1 or semi-private classes) as described on the website, please consider other options.
