I really am happy that this YMCA is right around the corner from my house. I have been going there…read moresince 2000 when I had my first child. It's a lovely facility that has been kept in tip top shape. They have a variety of classes to sign your kids up for and if you're still standing you can get into a dance class too. They offer you a private trainer to try as a part of your membership. They have a walking track upstairs, there is a nutritionist on the property for consultation, they have classes and I think lunch for the elderly. When my kids were younger I practically lived at the Y because I was there 6 days a week. My kids are adults now and it's nice to be able to go to a class now for me. Membership isn't expensive either. I really am blessed to live within walking distance to my Y and it's a very nice facility.

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.

Lainey is AMAZING! I hadn't stepped foot in a proper gym in over 20 years (I was all about spin,…read moreyoga, and Pilates), but she completely changed the game for me. She broke down weight lifting in a way that was easy to understand, taught me proper form, and tailored exercises to match my personal goals. Now I walk into the gym feeling confident instead of intimidated--and that's all thanks to her. Lainey's energy, motivation, and knowledge have been a total game changer. If you're even thinking about getting into weight lifting, do yourself a favor and train with her!

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.

Coach Ashley in the morning was fun and led us in a good warmup before proceeding with the WOD which was clearly written on one of the TV monitors. I loved being able to get a good (and challenging) workout and also engaging with a lot of the local athletes. Everyone was welcoming and it was fun to crush a pretty advanced WOD. Although I would argue that the 400m run around the gym is a bit longer than 400, I can't be too upset at working my body up just a bit more. Thanks TTL for the great drop-in experience. I will definitely be back if the opportunity presents itself.

I'd say it's mostly young professionals in their 30s and 40s. The Redondo beach location has more of a 20s vibe and their workouts seem more geared toward that age group as well, a little more intense. This location is just right for me. I am a bit too far (25-30 min) to come here often but I do enjoy it when I can make it out. Would love for a location to open closer to North Torrance.
