In comparison to other gyms Ive been, this is my pick! I really love how friendly and welcoming they are to their customers. The subscription fee is absolutely worth it! I wholeheartedly recommend this gym!

No frills gym located in Silver Lake, last month we paid $55/month which has gone up to $69 now without any other hidden fees. We signed up for a month and were pleased with the cleaning and front desk crew.Some of the equipment pieces are a bit worn down, but really no complaints for the value of the gym. Their small fridge beverages are also adequately priced without large markup.

This gym was the finest in our neighborhood! The service and machinery, as well as the friendly atmosphere, were fantastic. They had excellent support and had helpful employees. That is fantastic!

Love this gym. I’ve been a member on and off for 15 years. It’s not overly crowded. Lots of machines and free weights. Cardio room full of treadmills.

The equipment used in this gym was properly sanitized and clean for the courtesy of the next users. The staff will remind you of the dos and donts in using the tools. Every corner had a poster for the correct usage of all the things inside the gym.

Im no gymnasium individual however decided to get into shape lately. This location is exactly what I desired, no strain, no upsells. it is a nearby gym that nearly feels homey in all the right methods. I generally do not have a problem attending to the system I want to apply, theyre busy but ive never visible it packed(I make money working from home so i am going between 11am to 2pm). The attendants are first-rate and professional, theyve a pleasant choice of trainers that you could paintings with. The device is good and nicely maintained however not anything fancy. The folks that pass there are fine and respectful of the health club policies for the most part. up to now im very glad with this vicinity.

I first encountered Body Builders Gym walking along Hyperion, on my way to an experimental/drone show at the Hyperion Tavern. It must have been 10:30pm. Through its many windows, I saw a man wearing a Dead Kennedys t-shirt, old Sony headphones wrapped over his ears, performing a standing military press. The rest of the gym was quite empty. There was something in this solitary moment that transcended the rat race of life I found myself in, having recently moved to Northeast LA and not knowing what I would do with myself. Well, a couple weeks later I ended up coming back, got a three-month subscription, and havent left. Quite literally, I enjoy this gym so much I have not switched neighborhoods. An awesome housing opportunity opened up in the Arts District/Boyle Heights. Gentrification aside, I could not bare being farther than a bike ride away. No, this was impossible! The staff is familial, the facilities although on the are much sufficient as long as you are not planning on having an entire gym to yourself during rush hour, and the clientele is great too-- a minimal amount of groaners, very few liftbros, and everyone seems to keep the place sparkling clean. Family owned since 1978, what the heck you waiting for!?!?!

Very nice gym. It is cheap but it’s a good gym. I lost so much weight and I will lose more. Making time to go to the gym has helped me let go of many bad habits. I focus more on myself. And the fact this gym is very cheap and has good machines makes me very happy. Sometimes they provide bagels which are so good. :)

Is one of the best group workouts Ive ever signed up for. Im an avid runner who runs Marathons and other distance races. I joined Body Builders Gym to enhance my Cross Training and I have been very impressed with the High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) provided by their Trainers...and not to be cliché but they truly never do the same workout. Ive been a member for than 2 years and I still wake up excited every morning to Work out and challenge myself.

Worked out for a week here when I was staying in LA. I got a week pass for $40. Its a pretty cool suburban gym that had everything I needed.You wont find the newest weights or equipment, but it all gets the job done. It seems a little cramped, but it all seemed to fit ok.Really friendly staff and the people working out there didnt seem too pretentious.

I have tried a few gyms around the city, although they all seem similar in facilities, its the Trainers that make a difference. At Fitness SF, I am lucky to have Juan as my trainer. The energy and positivity he brings is phenomenal. When you sign up, do ask for Juan and also get a full body assesment

Awesome gym with a huge weights space and selection and great cardio machines. Ample free parking and good hours. The only issue is the membership price is high and this location lacks a pool and sauna.

A great neighborhood gym with attitude. Pending remodel may destroy it soon, but for now, theres enough variety of equipment for even a discerning body builder to be able to get a decent workout. Some historical equipment from the early days of southern Californias body culture (A bunch of stuff from the original Jack Lalanes, which predated even that establishment), mixed with more modern machines. If they decide to destroy that balance doing a planned remodel though, they should at least also change the name.

Great for a quick treadmill run while I was in town! Had a few hours to kill and $15 to spare, so I got a day pass. Locker rooms are a bit cramped, but they get the job done.

Review №27

Great gym, usually not too busy which is nice, but sometimes can get pretty packed. Theres a really obnoxious personal trainer that drives me nuts, but other than that this is the perfect little neighborhood gym. Not too cruise-y and has everything you need, except a pool- but most gyms dont anyway! Good price and nice staff- mostly. You just have to avoid the personal trainer who talks obnoxiously loud and cuts in to whatever you are doing.

After trying out a few gyms in the LA/Long Beach area this is by far my favorite. Did their 3 month plan to try it out and completely fell in love with the place. In the hours that I go (usually after 6 pm) it is never crowded and in the few times that Ive gone early there was still plenty of equipment to use. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The vibe all together is just welcoming. Whether you are pushing 300 lbs or 80 you will feel welcome here. Showers/locker rooms available and they even have an area outisde to hit the bag and do some jump rope.Key equipment available: Flat press bench (many), incline press bench, pull up bars, squat rack, preacher curls, leg press machine, multiple lap pull down machines, cable station, abs station upstairs.Very affordable as well.

The $30 day pass was a bit out of line. After I worked out, I bought a $25 t-shirt that had a tag on it that said to redeem the tag for a free day pass. I told the guy behind the counter that if I am buying this shirt, I should get a refund on my day pass, and he just smiled at me and said yeah.
