“I’ve trained at this studio for three years, and after many changes it finally feels like the studio energy is back. The new coaching team is fire!. Coaches Brock and Valentine bring real passion, give spot-on form cues, and keep the room buzzing with great playlists! Also major shoutout to Coach Taylor for holding things together through the restructuring. She kept me coming back year-round!”

“The SPA: If you consistently want some of the best massages of your life, ask for LYGIA. She is incredible. Lygia has been doing this almost her entire life and you can tell.

I get massages regularly.. probably got around 100 massages last year alone from all over LA (and out of state). What I can tell you is that no one is as consistently good as Lygia. She has this really rare ability to read your body and know exactly how much pressure to apply and treats your session truly as a healing experience. And she actually loves what she does.

She's got a fun personality and you feel taken care of. If you were to make just one decision about treating your body right...

GO SEE LYGIA!”

“Very friendly staff, I came in without an appointment & Esme was nice enough to give me a walkthrough & gave me pricing & invited me to the upcoming community events in addition to a free class. Will definitely be back”

“This is an excellent gym to lose weight/ gain muscle and be healthy. The coaches are super positive and helpful in accomplishing your goals. You will receive not only the training program you will get a diet plan and they will follow up with you on weekly basis.
I would like to say thank you for everything I learned in this gym and I will back soon”

“I don't write reviews but I owe it to Deuce Gym, specifically Coach Jess, to write this. This place is special. The people here are special. And the vibes all around are special. I've never enjoyed working out and thought I was destined to be a thicc girly for the rest of my life but coming here changed my mind.

In May of 2025, I saw an ad for Deuce through instagram for a free trial and decided to check it out since I wanted to look good for my wedding in September 2025 but didn't know where to start. Coach Ben and Jess were amazing and I ended up doing to bodybuilding 202 program. I fell in love with the encouraging, community feel and the accountability of it all. I've never lifted weights before but I ended up loving it too! Before I knew it, I dropped 25 lbs before my wedding and had never felt better! I was slimmer, stronger, disciplined, and had more energy throughout my days. Because of Deuce Gym, I'm able to look back at my wedding photos and be proud of how I looked and felt then.

I moved to OC shortly after my wedding and had to cancel my membership but I still look back and remember all the fond, good and sweaty times I had at Deuce Gym. So if you're considering joining a gym, Deuce is it! Plus, they're dog-friendly!!”

“This is a great place to start lifting heavy, especially if you’ve never done it before. I avoided axial loading like the plague because of lower back problems for 2 decades. After getting on the program here with squats and deadlifts, my back feels better than it has since I was 20. Super approachable staff, multiple 24 hour locations. Dogs. What else do you need?”

“Coach Maya had the class super motivated and was so welcoming for this newcomer. Workout was so amazing that I came back the next day (though I was super sore). Bonus points because her workout soundtrack took me back...80s baby here. Purchased 30 classes. See you there!”

“Circuit works is the best work out hands down! The perfect mix of cardio and strength training in the hiit class. And the studio has so many class options and amenities.”

“Brick is great. Pedro was a warm welcoming coach. I dropped in for a 6am class while in LA for work and they made me feel welcomed. Plus I got in a good workout. Win win!.”

“Fitness Covered is truly a hidden gem in Los Angeles and an absolute 10/10 for anyone looking for a more personalized, supportive, and well-rounded fitness experience. I’ve been in and out of gyms for years trying to find the right environment and coaching style, and I’m so grateful I found Fitness Covered!

From day one, the team here made me feel taken care of. Brandon, Kevin and Rex go above and beyond to understand your goals, your history, and any limitations you may have, and they tailor everything to make sure you feel confident, safe, and supported. Their attention to detail is unmatched, and you can tell they genuinely care about your long-term success, not just your workouts.

The space itself is clean, welcoming, and never overcrowded, which makes every session feel focused and intentional. Between the personalized training, the recovery tools, the nutrition guidance, and the overall positive energy, it’s such a refreshing change from the typical busy LA gym scene.

What I appreciate most is how empowering the process has been. I’ve learned how to lift with proper form, build strength without aggravating old injuries, and stay consistent with nutrition in a way that still allows balance (yes, I still enjoy my wine and weekend meals!). The accountability and support here genuinely make a difference.

Fitness Covered has played a huge role in helping me feel stronger, healthier, and more confident. If you’re looking for a private, high-quality gym with a team that truly cares about your progress, I couldn’t recommend this place more.

Thank you, Fitness Covered team, for everything you do!”

“Been coming here for a bit now and I honestly love it! The coaches are super supportive, always helping me with my form and pushing me to do better. The gym is really clean and easy to get around, and the people are so welcoming—it makes working out something I actually look forward to.”

“I’ve been training at Allegiate for the past 2.5 years, and it has truly been one of the best investments I’ve ever made in my health, and I don't say that lightly.

Before Allegiate, my strength training experience was basically nonexistent. I mostly relied on Pilates and long walks. I always wanted to build muscle and get stronger, but I had no idea where to start. Programming workouts, figuring out exercises, sets, reps..it all felt overwhelming and intimidating.

A friend who works in athletics at UCLA recommended Allegiate, so I decided to give it a try. I started with personal training for the first 6 months..then moved into Strength Class, and after about a year of Strength Class, I moved into the advanced Team Class.

The progress I’ve made since then has honestly been life-changing. When I started, I couldn’t do a single pull-up. Now I can do four. I struggled to do 1-2 push-ups, now I can do 10+. I couldn’t deadlift even half my bodyweight, and now I’m lifting 1.7x my bodyweight. Seeing those kinds of gains over time has completely changed how confident and capable I feel.

What sets Allegiate apart, especially in LA, is that it’s not flashy or focused on aesthetics or “influencer” culture. It’s about the fundamentals: smart programming, proper form, and getting stronger in a sustainable way. You don’t have to figure anything out on your own. You just show up, follow the program, and get coached.

The coaching is incredible. Every coach knows you by name, explains the “why” behind what you’re doing, and makes strength training approachable instead of intimidating. I’ve learned so much, and I’ve built real relationships here, people I call my friends. The community is just as special. Classes feel like training with the same group of people each week..it’s supportive, consistent, and feels more like a team than a typical gym.

Allegiate taught me that fitness doesn’t have to be complicated..stick to the basics, stay consistent, and results come. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been, and I can’t recommend this place enough.”

“Truly emary is the best everytime, takes her time with every move showing us all forms of varieties, she’s so strong it’s motivational and just the most fun teacher! Best class ever”

“I found AMP about 7 months ago and genuinely couldn’t love this place more. The community of people who come in every single day and just get after it has been truly inspiring, especially in a world filled with people are always looking for short cuts. You will be pushed here no doubt, I get humbled every single time I step through the doors (in the best way). I couldn’t recommend AMP more for those who want a community based around genuine desire to improve as people and as athletes.”

“I started here about a month ago and love it! Coaches are super knowledgeable and provide a surprising amount of attention to members considering it’s a group class. You’ll leave feeling stronger and then sore the next day!”

“Real Fitness has 100% improved my life. I came here a couple years ago and trained with Peter who is THE MAN. I wasn’t consistent and a couple years goes by and I ended up getting “runners knee” and my physical therapist couldn’t get me in for over a month. I reached out to Peter and he got me in the gym immediately and started building back my muscle in my knee injury with me. Best decision I could have made. I’ve been going back for 3 weeks and I’m not in any pain and already feel stronger after ONLY 3 weeks. This gym and all of the trainers are amazing and I couldn’t be happier with my results. If you want the opportunity to make changes in your life real fitness is the place to go! They will work with you on pricing and that’s all anyone can ask! This is the gym to go to!!”

“I should first say that this review is based on my actual experience and feelings and in no way is it based on the fact that my wife is a trainer at Unlimited Fitness. Actually, I need to clarify, she is the best trainer at Unlimited Fitness. Jokes aside, this gym is awesome and much more than just a place to workout. It really is a family where everyone has a positive attitude and encourages each other to dig deep and push each other to thier limit. Every class is different and challenging! UF is constantly putting together fun activities in the gym and even after hours where members get together to socialize and have some laughs while not sweating in a class. I have gained a lot of strength and confidence in my abilities and have even started to see my dad bod fade away with each class. Anyone looking for a gym with a good neighbor feel and communal camaraderie, must check it out...they have free trials, so no excuses. Try one if Stacie's classes 😉”

“This gym is a hidden gem! While the owner isn’t involved in day-to-day operations, he has left it in the capable hands of Sean, who does a phenomenal job interacting with clients and mentoring his staff. The trainers are not only knowledgeable but genuinely care about each guest’s well-being. It’s a place where you feel a real sense of community while also getting a killer workout. Highly recommend!””

“Oak Park LA is the gym I’ve been looking for my entire life. I’ve been a member for 1.5 years and can’t speak highly enough about the quality of the coaches, programming, and facility. I’d been a member at 2-3 other CrossFit gyms in other cities and kept getting injured due to improper form and going too hard too often. Oak Park LA coaches have helped me improve on the fundamentals, identify opportunities for individualized growth, and discern when to push myself versus taking it easy. The intentionality + philosophy behind the coaching is unparalleled and I’m grateful to be a part of the community.

The sauna + cold plunge is also a huge perk of being a member here :)

If you’re looking for intentional growth as an athlete and human Oak Park LA is the gym for you.”

“I was visiting from out of town, the check in process was easy; Patty at the front desk was very helpful and accommodating. This is a great location and with amazing staff. I took the Hyrox prep class with Allyson, she did a great job of explaining Hyrox and how OT helps with the prep up for the full course. I would recommend.

Note: At this location you should bring your own towel otherwise you have to pay to rent one.”

“Thank you Collin for being so incredible and supportive with me at my first class at TM! Coming in with special needs due to multiple meniscus tears on my left knee was a bit nerve wracking for me but you gave such wonderful instruction and smiled and cheered my small wins and showed me alternative movements to mitigate my injury. Thank you, you gave me a sense of real courage to get back into training with confidence and safety. It means a lot to me.”

“InglewoodFit is such a great place to workout. The coaches and community there are amazing! Everyone is so motivating and the coaches make sure you’re using the correct technique. Every workout is always different and effective. I always leave sore and always want to come back. I will definitely keep coming here.”

“Just went this morning, the place was still as nostalgic as ever, with excellent front desk service. I arrived around 5:30 AM, and it was perfect, not crowded very spread out. The perfect place and time.”

“The coaches are welcoming, encouraging, and kind. They push you and want to see you grow. The community offers that same energy. The programming is intentional and can meet wherever you are. A good workout surrounded by great people.”

“Morgan is a super cool, high energy, knowledgeable and fun instructor. Other male instructor I can’t remember the name of was as well. Their machines are superior than other places I’ve been on Classpass. Definitely more challenging and effective.”

“Shiva Yoga is the kind of place where you walk in stressed about your tight hamstrings and leave wondering if you should legally adopt the entire staff, because everyone there is just that nice. It is clear Garth has worked hard to create a fun community. The instructors manage to guide you through a serious sweat while maintaining a vibe that says, we are all friends here, even while we are shaking in a holding pattern. The classes are perfectly timed and manicured for a true yoga experience rather than just a fitness class, you still get an intense workout that will rival the others.
The real magic happens when they host a community potluck. There is nothing quite like sweating through a class and immediately bonding with a room full of people over who brought the best snack. It turns out that a shared love of yoga and free food is the ultimate recipe for making friends. Between the genuinely friendly team, the fantastic classes, and the promise of future snacks, it is impossible not to love this place.”

“I have been going to Allegiate for a while now and after doing every work out under the sun previously, I can say I have found my home. I love the way to they take pride in hiring coaches that know what they are doing to make sure I am doing the movements properly to minimize injuries. And when something starts to bother you, these coaches take the time to check in, make adjustments where needed and guide you back to feeling your best. Shout out to Walter and Jackson for pushing me and keeping me in check!”

“Love this gym! The coaches are wonderful and really care about what they do. I’ve learned so much on form and technique. Crossfit changed my life! It’s so much fun! Everyone is very nice. Highly recommend!”

“It’s a great place to start a workout. Bri was a great host, her positivity, and detailed explanations makes you feel welcomed. I recommend this place for beginners!”

“I’ve been training with Mark at Body By Design, and the experience has been transformative. Mark’s expertise and personalized approach make each session effective and motivating. He crafts tailored workouts that align with my goals and constantly pushes me to achieve more. The gym itself is well-equipped and maintains a supportive atmosphere. If you're looking for a personal trainer who combines knowledge, dedication, and a genuine commitment to your success, Mark at Body By Design is the ideal choice.”
