Been training here for the past 6 months, I honestly can say I am in the best shape of my life thanks to my trainer/ coach Luis , I have lost 42 lbs and can lift more weight than ever before. My mile time went from 9 minutes to just below 7 min mile. It is a great open space with tons of free weights. I highly recommend you give them a try. Awesome community of people everyone is welcoming and supportive. It really is the best part of my day. They also have a nice outdoor workout area too.

I love it here!! Everyone is so kind & friendly, the coaches are great. Being a part of this community is very motivating to become your best self :)

Great gym, great workouts, great people to workout with, and great coaches! Hard to imagine finding somewhere better to call my gym-home! Not sure how I haven’t reviewed it before but come check it out!!

I’m glad to find that place! It is open for the public and you can visit it the same day for 25$ flat fee. Self check in is available. Recommend for DTLA residents.Thank you!

It was awesome! The coach, Dana, it’s very gentle and attentive and helped us all the time. The owner is a very nice and receptive guy. One of the best gym to training and have a nice time! They have all the equipments you’ll need, bike, ski, rowers and a lot off barbels and dumbels! Very nice place 💪🏼

I like staying at this hotel because it allows me to forget about all of my troubles in life! Because of the ambiance, this hotel makes me feel very relaxed! If you want to relax, I highly recommend this place!

Awesome set up. Awesome experience. Great trainers. 5 stars all day. Look and feel better after only a month and half. Looking forward to the next session!

Me and my girlfriend loved the gym. It’s big, has all the equipments (brand new), also has air runners, skis, air bikes and rowers. Very clean and well decorated. It has many and also flexible open gym hours, which was all we needed for our training program. The coaches were very gentle, receptive and helpfull. The owner is an awesome guy that made us feel like home and it was really a pleasure meeting him! If you’re looking for a gym that is fully equipped (with good equipment), good coaches, open gym hours, this is your place.

ESTLR Athletics has really been a joy for my daughter. Her coordination has greatly improved and she’s been learning so many new things, both physically and socially. She loves her coaches and looks forward to attending class.

My favorite place to be. Has sleds, tires, battle ropes, farmer walk bars, Olympic setups, a staircase, heavy bags, and all the regular gym equipment. Also less crowded. Staff are excellent and kind. So are the members.

Been training here for about 6 months . Excellent environment for training . Never made so many friends at a gym. Solid coaching and programming never been so strong just wanted to give them a shout out for all the support they have given me. If your into it Olympic weightlifting or CrossFit this the best spot in downtown.

Awesome crossfit gym i have been too. So much space and equipment . Took a class with 16 people with plenty of space and great coach high energy. I PR my clean today so happy. If your in LA got check this place out

This is by far the best gym Ive ever been to. It isnt just a hardcore gym, it is an incredible community full of people that are very passionate about fitness. Everyone I have spoken to from the staff and members have been nothing but kind and incredibly knowledgeable.

As I looked into my recent photos, I can see that I am getting fatter. So, I decided to go to this gym near our house. And I acquired a great service because they really assisted me in what to do for me to lose weight. In just a week I lose 2kls and it made me feel eager to lose more!

Great open space to work out!

Since discovering the perfect dress at this boutique, this is my first and last shopping trip. Shell take a look at you and try to figure out what youre wearing. The salespeople were pleasant, attentive, and made me feel special. As a result, Ill tell everyone I know!

I feel like this gym is my second home. Amazing equipment, training and most importantly, community.

Just wanted to give them a shout out. Been a member here for over a year and absolutely love this place. Excellent facility, great coaches, and made great friends. Awesome community.

GREAT gym! I’ve been going there around a month and a half and I’ve lost around a solid 15 pounds through diet and exercise there. The classes are GREAT, they come with the membership. The High Intensity Interval Training in the classes really works for me, I try to go as hard as I can and I feel great after. The gym is clean and well-organized. It is a very friendly and supportive environment. The instructors are GREAT and very friendly. The owner is GREAT and very friendly. I definitely recommend this gym. There is parking outside of the gym and some inside the outside gym area.

This place has changed life. Great people am now in the shape of my life. Thank you Estlr for all the coaching and training

This was my favorite crossfit gym I been too. I got in the best shape of my life. SO SO HAPPY my schedule changed recently to give me the time to train again thank you Darren

Parked by this place the other day while picking up from the neighboring restaurant and there was a crowd of about 20 people running laps in the street without masks on? This is also during a peak surge of COVID-19 in Los Angeles hospitals. Seems to be a complete disregard for the safety or respect of the surrounding area where there are numerous businesses and dog parks that remain open.

I love this place so much

My mother and I were so pleased with the experience we had in this gym because we were taken care of properly! The coaches have been so supportive and always make sure they review us every time!

By far my favorite gym that I’ve been too. Very clean & has large outdoor areas to train & every training station is 6ft Apart. Glad to be here

I’ve been coming to this gym for almost a year now and I couldn’t go anywhere else. The big space is awesome, coaches too

Man.. The most fun fitness experience! This gym is large, great indoor & outdoor area. & the location is my favorite part about it!

Came here from a booty camp style training need to be challenged to keep improving. Trojan did the trick. The staff got me todo movements I never thought I could do. Needless to say am now in the best shape of my life. Love this place

I cannot speak highly enough of Trojan Athletics. I have been working out here for almost a year and can attest to its strengths: knowledgeable coaches, clean facility, and great community.Coaching — The coaches at Trojan are incredibly attentive and extremely knowledgeable about CrossFit and weightlifting. I came to Trojan as a complete beginner; I had never used a barbell or done any kind of Metcon training. What I noticed immediately is that ALL the coaches took the time to train me properly and ensure that I was completing movements correctly. Crossfit sometimes gets a bad name due to athlete injuries, but the coaches at Trojan truly invest in helping beginner athletes form correct habits and advanced athletes modify their technique.Classes — Classes are offered throughout the day and up until 8 pm, which was a huge bonus for people (like myself) who work late. The classes are TOUGH and will push an athlete both mentally and physically to achieve his or her fitness goals. After a short time training here, I began to notice changes in my strength, body composition, and muscle mass.Community — The people who train at Trojan are a close knit community. The athletes here are a diverse group of ALL skill levels and are extremely welcoming. During the CrossFit open, the sense of camaraderie was exceptional. We all stayed to watch our friends in hourly heats. Memorial Day and Regionals offer other opportunities to compete and have fun.I highly recommend Trojan Athletics to athletes of any skill level or desired fitness goals.

Trojan Athletics is the premier one-stop shop for your fitnessing needs in DTLA. Nestled in the heart of LA’s electric, thriving and growing arts district, Trojan Athletics provides a fantastic environment for working out and making new friends.Trojan’s offerings include CrossFit classes (satisfying for both veteran CrossFitters and those new to CrossFit), a dedicated olympic weightlifting program, gymnastics, personal training and more. Each of these offerings are managed by Trojan’s top notch staff. All of the coaches genuinely want to see members continue to meet their fitness goals and are dedicated to making those goals happen.Plus, Trojan’s space is huge. Because of the size of the gym, you’ll never have to worry about being jammed together with other members as you work out — there’s plenty of breathing room.Overall, I can’t recommend Trojan Athletics enough. It’s been my home gym for 7 months and I have no plans to switch gyms anytime soon.

Been coming here for almost a year. Can’t say enough positive things to describe how much i love it here.

Trojan Crossfit is a fantastic Crossfit and Weightlifting gym. Whether you are just starting Crossfit or have been doing it for several years, you will find Trojan such a fun environment with an awesome community of people that will push you to get better and stronger. The gym is a huge space that is extremely clean and well laid out, with room for large and fun classes. Darren, Dave, Anna and Rich are extremely knowledgeable and will encourage and push you to become a better athlete. They always make classes fun and ensure you are practicing proper form. Such a wonderful gym that I am so sad to be leaving as my time in LA has come to a close.

I have been dropping into Trojan Athletics for awhile now and every time I workout I have an awesome time. The coaching staff is helpful and the community is nice. The programming they provide is killer. They give you tips and tricks while perform the workout or after. They dont have a lazy staff. The space is big and the equipment is well maintained. They know what they are doing. You will not be disappointed joining the community or dropping in.Nicky Ds Wood-fired PizzaNicky D’s Wood-fired PizzaPizza4/10/2015

I found my new home two years ago at Trojan Athletics. As an Olympic Weightlifter, they offered me the coaching and atmosphere I was looking for. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and attentive. They go above and beyond for their athletes.Not just is the coaching terrific, but the people who make up the community are wonderful. I’ve made so many friends through the gym over the years, and the owner and coaches definitely do their part to make sure members have the opportunity to get to know each other through events, cookouts, and trips to the beer garden across the street.If you’re looking for a great place to train with even better people, Trojan Athletics is your place.

I love training at Trojan Athletics! Not only the classes are very well planned out, but also the sense of community that you feel while working out with like-minded people, is priceless. In a short amount of time at Trojan, Ive been able learn more about Crossfit and its lingo, get stronger, and build some great friendships as an added bonus. If youre in the Downtown LA area and Art District vicinities, this is the box for you! PS: They have the best protein smoothies at the Tonic Bar, conveniently located on site!

Came here to try for a week, and now I’m going on two years here & it’s thanks to the community and support of the coaches that helped me. The learning experience and selfImprovement is what kept it consistent. Been to a few boxes in LA and this is where I’ll stay

Very very rude staff. Extremely poor communication. I dropped in to see what the environment is like. They said I could just work out. Then FORCED me to pay $20 by shouting at me in front of everyone in the gym, when I simply said I didn’t know the price list.

This box is pretty great. They go through the movements and have plenty of modifications to make sure you dont get hurt or frustrated about the movements in the workout. They are more of a traditional box, but not in the sense that they require you to vomit and go into rhabdo to be a part of the box.All that can be said probably for a lot of boxes (thankfully), but what sets Trojan apart is Darren. I was a visiting student for a month and pretty strapped on cash. Darren was very understanding and incredibly flexible with making sure I met my fitness goals while going through this incredibly expensive time in my education.Thank you Darren and Trojan Athletics! Please check them out on your way through LA.

I come here every day and can honestly say this is the best Crossfit gym ever. The programs are challenging and cater to every fitness level and intensity. The facility is excellent: clean, well-maintained, with a variety of equipment. The community here is fantastic, and the coaches are attentive and knowledgeable.Just wanted show some support and appreciation for everyone that has coached me and pushed me to get fit lost over 30lbs of fat and gained 20lbs of muscle. Went from a 38”inch waist to a 31” can’t say enough of how happy I am.

Nice people workout here. Weightlifting and crossfit equipments are plenty and facility conditions are ok. But read your contracts carefully and treat every transaction like a serious business dealing regardless of how much time you spent here. Being meek, agreeable, or expecting personalized services can (repeatedly) incur financial consequences.Edit after reply: I do not mean to object to any contracts I signed up. Other gyms employ such policies. However, as an old member staying for years through a few ups and downs of this place, I do feel entitled to a bit more friendly reminders on changes of terms when they applies to me (i.e. I do not recall any mention of the cancellation policies except buried inside the contract, which of course I shouldve read, when I asked to change my plans). Similar misunderstandings had happened before, and those times I backed down (as is this time except this feedback) because the specific situations were reasonable from the gyms perspective. However, such occurrences without much leeway do not make me feel like a valued member of the community.(besides, shouldnt the proper *business* response to a request of cancellation at a date specifically showing my ignorance of the policy be That cannot be done because your contract would not allow it. Earliest possible date is ... instead of Confirmed! ?)

If youre seeking a challenging workout, knowledgeable and encouraging coaches, and a supportive environment, then look no further. Trojan Crossfit will surpass your expectations and will help you accomplish your fitness goals as long as youre willing to put in the work and effort. Youll be guided and instructed on proper form, receive constant advice along with encouragement, and with the awesome camaraderie youll be pushed beyond your comfort zone. Stop wasting time and sign up with this phenomenal gym!

I recommend this Crossfit gym to anyone & everyone in the downtown LA area!! The community is great, friendly and welcoming, and the instructors are extremely knowledgeable and helpful; and open to all levels in essentially every class. To name a few, Tiffany, Kayla, Devin and Rich are THE BOMB coaches and Darren is great too!! I love the energy of the gym, the size of the place, but mostly the people and challenging WODs every day! Thank you! -Alie B

I was in LA for two weeks earlier this month and dropped in at Trojan Crossfit several times during my trip. I would highly recommend to anyone in the area (drop in or local). The coaches are attentive and helpful, the space is great (especially given the location), and they were very accommodating of my recurring drop in situation. Thanks for having me!

Large, roomy facility with a variety of equipment - not limited to just crossfit. Awesome box. Coaches are very knowledgeable. Workouts are very well-rounded. The community is great support for anyone wanting to improve on your overall well-being.

This place is one of the best of the best box gyms in LA. The coaches are supportive and encouraging with helping you in perfecting your technique and form. Ever since the new owner took over, hes created a community in the gym and made the place a welcoming environment. Another plus is they have their own PARKING - in DTLA, thats a gold mine! :)

I am by no means an athlete, but they definitely make you feel like one here! I love this place - and especially love the great people this box draws in. They can count on me being a lifetime member, no matter what I have to do to make sure my membership is up to date...seriously, Ill do whatever it takes!

Trojan has become a second home to me. The staff and members are amazing, warm and welcoming. The coaches are awesome, very knowledgable and go that extra mile to make sure you are getting the best possible workout. The box itself is very spacious with the best equipment, even has a gender neutral restroom (a plus in my book), very welcoming atmosphere and its own parking lot.

Barely could run 400 meters a year ago. Now I can run a 5k in 20min. Excellent Crossfit gym . Awesome community

Rich has been the best personal trainer / coach I have ever used Just wanted to give him a shout out. Thank you Rich and all of TROJAN for helping me achieve my goals.

This box or gym (whichever you prefer to call it) is literally my second home. The staff and members are my second family. Which may not sound like much to a normal person, but for an ex-alcoholic who never worked out in a day in his life, is HUGE! Before I joined Trojan, I was on a 3/4 bottle a day whiskey habit for years. Then I joined and it changed my life. Being drunk everyday lost its appeal. Feeling healthy and seeing muscle definition makes it all worth it. If youre like me who loves to work out in a group setting, then come on by and check it out.

Just go to another place. Crossfit spots are a dime a dozen and this place is run by scumbags.In fairness, this is a nice facility and good people go there but they engage in horrible and corrupt business practices. Be warned and do not pre-pay for anything. Darren Shephard is a lowlife crook. As background:- I was injured and unable to continue doing any type of physical activity. I had to have surgery. They saw my problem and were well aware of the issues.- I asked to have the private classes transferred to my wife so she could try it out. They said no.- I asked for a refund since I could never use the classes again and they refused to have them transferred. They said no.- I asked to see a copy of the contract covering the purchase of classes and they said no. Seriously? Who does that? Guess who? Criminals.- All of this is in writing.Its shocking to see such behavior. It is illegal. Do yourself and your friends a favor and just go somewhere else or pay money on the barrel for every class. Seriously, Darren Shepard is a lowlife crook who feels its ok to steal.

Best CrossFit gym in LA. Coaches for every type of athlete and a welcoming community. Love this place.

Nothing but positive vibes and great WODs👍🏽

Never thought I would like crossfit came with a friend was super negative and became a believer. Excellent decision for myself

Been weightlifting at Trojan for over a year . Great environment and coaching

Trojan Crossfit is an amazing awesome box. The coaches are PHENOMENAL and all the members are so sweet, friendly and energetic. Its a wonderful place to join whether you are just starting out, changing boxes, or just want to get an awesome workout in. The coaches are attentive, full of knowledge and advice, you are not pressured into doing anything you dont feel comfortable doing, there is always an alternative to any WOD, modified or RX you are always cheered on and left feeling amazing! Trojan is definitely the best box I have ever been to, and probably will always be the best. I love the people, the box and the whole entire atmosphere!! Goooooo Trojans lol!!

Fantastic facility! Awesome staff! Amazing results!

Great group of coaches and athletes, dedicated parking and a great crossfit facility.

Best functional training gym in los angeles

Top notch crossfit gym with top notch coaching!

Best Fitness decision I have ever made.

Been a member here on and off for 4 years. Try else where but keep coming back to Trojan nothing compares in terms of the community of people and the awesome coaches.

Great facility and atmosphere
