However I recently decided to take up private training with PR and it has been the best decision of my life. His energy and attitude are absolutely incredible--he shows up every session ready to motivate, challenge, and support me. He constantly pushes me to reach my full potential and genuinely believes in me, even during the moments when I doubt myself. His guidance has made a huge difference not just in my fitness, but in my confidence and mindset as well. If you're looking for a coach who truly cares and brings out the best in you, I can't recommend PR enough.

In the two months I have been working with them I hit a new PR as a runner (21:56 5k) because of Tracey's amazing guidance. She encouraged me to stop timing myself and and helped me change my focus to sprinting intuitively for 10-15 minute intervals (yes, that means without music!) and that increased my base running speed by 1 minute in the matter of a month! . Not only has my running gotten stronger but I am also into lifting, sculpting my body, nutrition and losing bf%. Rudi designed an entire program for me and I no longer feel like I'm shooting in the mildly-educated dark. These two help me take the guess-work out of everything and they take the time to explain why things work. . When I signed up I didn't realize I was getting two trainers for the price of one! . I feel so much more confident in my body, in my lifting and I no longer spend time wondering about my form. . BIG also!! I had an elbow injury that Rudi helped me heal 100% in just one day. He targeted what was causing my pain, where the pain was and knew the solution. . These trainers have an uncommon wealth of knowledge and I highly recommend them!

I had huge goals when I decided to join the gym 4 months ago. I wanted to learn the fundamentals of…read moreweight lifting so I could maintain a healthy and fit lifestyle for the rest of my life. When I signed up, I asked the gym to link me up to the most knowledgeable trainer they had. Imagine my surprise when I got a two for one deal with Rudi and Tracey. In less than 4 months, I lost 15 pounds, lost 6% of body fat, and gained 1lb of lean muscle. The results are obvious in my physique, but what's more, I feel stronger, have more energy, and have no more pain in my back and hips, which was perpetual before I began training. I am always asking questions and doing my research to make sure I can continue to improve, and both Tracey and Rudi have been so available and ready to help challenge any false information I get from the instagram "fitness gurus" and provide in depth education about the reasoning behind their methods. Rudi and Tracey have both guided me to perfect my technique, helped me to understand the most effective strategies to meet my goals, and introduced me a wide span of training options to help me figure out what I enjoy most and what works best for me. I would encourage ANYONE, whether they are a seasoned gym goer or athlete to the most inexperienced beginner to work with Tracey and Rudi. They will guide you in developing skills that can be utilized for life! I can honestly say working with them and training routinely has transformed my life. And I'm just getting started! (I am a 28 year old female with a background in dance and cross country.)

Coincedently I had just gotten a flyer for elite, so I gave them a call. They offer a Boot Camp early in the Moring and late in the afternoon as well as personal training. Well Im happy to say I won my bet, and having to wake up at 3:30in the morning to make the morning boot camp (I live in the LBC) was not as bad as I thought I actually had energy. I even joined their running club and was up to Five Miles!! At one point I got really busy with work and I had already won the bet so I stopped going, and they called me to motivate me to continue to go (I had paid through two months). I went back until i went on vacation, twisted my ankle and got a new job in west L.A. Sadly I cant go to the Boot Camp anymore =( They are super friendly, encouraging and best of all higly affordable compared to all other boot camps I looked at. Oh try to do the boot camps with julia (she nice), Mario is a hard ass and wont let you get away with anything, but he always end with these inspirational little talks. Theyre both great.

All the trainers know how to challenge you in the best way. They push you to do more than you think you can, and it's clear they genuinely care about helping you improve. I was looking for a place that would keep me accountable, and this has been exactly that. Everyone there is working toward the same goal of getting healthier, and that shared mindset makes it such a positive, motivating environment. I've been going for about 2 + months now, and it's been a great experience all around. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone trying to stay consistent and see real progress. I always look forward to my workouts at RISE.

I've been a member and going to the one in Sylmar since it opened, I want to say since 2018. What I…read morelove about this gym is that it is local to home, but in the past year or so it has gone downhill. For starters, the cleanliness of the gym is horrible. For years there was a lady that would clean the gym 2-3 times a week and now nobody goes to clean it. There is dust and hair everywhere, the restroom smell like urine and on occasions the hand sanitizer dispensers and wipe containers are empty. Secondly, the customer service is lacking friendliness and professionalism. Staff do not greet and on A LOT of occasions in the past year the gym does not open on time during the week/weekend. The best customer service was given by prior employees Alex (trainer) and Destiny. Although I have kinda noticed a few new attachments and equipment, this gym lacks a lot of focus in this area compared to the Eagle Rock and Northridge gym. It would be nice if a member suggestion box was utilized so that equipment can be updated/added. Ex. Heavier kettle bells, maybe another smith machine, leg press. This gym generates enough revenue to better it for all the members. Back in March, I spoke to Ulysses and shared cleanliness and customer service concerns and I have yet to see changes. Who can I reach out to, above Ulysses to have all my concerns addressed.

The conditions…read moreare unacceptable--equipment is often dirty, bathrooms are rarely cleaned, and the place just feels neglected overall. It's clear that cleanliness and upkeep are not a priority. The staff is unfriendly and unprofessional except for one staff Destiny.Most of them are young kids who act like they'd rather be anywhere else. They don't greet members, offer help, or show any interest in the people coming in. Worst of all, they don't even open the gym on time. Multiple times, I've shown up during the scheduled opening hours, only to find the doors locked and no staff in sight. We've literally stood outside waiting for hours because no one bothered to show up or even notify members of any delay. It feels like management doesn't care at all. We're paying members, and we deserve better. If this continues, I'll be looking for a new gym--one that actually values its members and respects their time. Saturday 7/12/2025 was the last time we stood outside and the gym was to open at 7am and we heard they showed up until 8am. This is not ok!

He is truly gifted and his motivational speeches through the workout pushes me to give 110% even when I feel like giving up. I've been with Suicide Boxing since 2010 but due to an accident in 2016 I was sidelined and gained 50 pounds. I was able to return to Suicide Boxing in January 2017 and needed to shed this excess weight. Diego put me on a plan where I had to lose 1-pound per week and weigh in every Monday. The stipulation was if I didn't lose 1-pound a week I owed him 100 burpees or 100 squats. Yes, I owed him a few times :-). I'm happy to report as of January 10, 2018, I've lost a total of 37 pounds, a gang of inches and close to 8% body fat! Check out the pics!!! Diego is amazing and his main message is about living a healthy lifestyle. What sticks with me the most is when he says, "it's up to you -- it's about consistency in the gym and consistency with a healthy diet! And working out 1 hour per day is only 4% of your day!"
