I started going to LA Fitness a couple weeks ago and I love it!! All the workers are so nice and have already helped me so much with workout plans, nutrition, and so much more. They’re always around to help my form or give me workout ideas. They’re all super helpful and easy to talk to. The gym itself is always super clean and they have a lot to offer in terms of classes and equipment! 10/10

We travel to Pittsburgh often. This LA Fitness by far the best I’ve been too. The staff is more then courteous, the equipment is a great selection, it’s always functional, it’s clean, and just a great environment.

I spoke with Dre @ the LA Fitness located in the South Side neighborhood of Pittsburgh, PA, I think he is the personal training supervisor. He was very courteous and had much knowledge. I was able to attain information like pricing with out much effort or worry. Dre was concise and thorough.

Staff has been great! Their personal training director Dre was great about checking in with my progress and allowing us to have a conversation about any questions/goals/concerns that I have. Everyone has been super friendly!

Had an excellent experience with one of their trainers Dre. He showed me the ropes, introducing me back into the gym after a fews years of being MIA. We went through a very thorough explanation about nutrition and form. You can tell everyone there loves him and that he loves what he does. Thanks Dre!

My fitness consultation with Dre went smoothly and I was left very impressed. He was very personable and made everything easy to digest & understand. Overall, the Southside LA is clean, friendly and a great place to work out!

I like the gym. Decent equipment. Downfall is that its always super busy and impossible to get a squat rack.

Review №21

Only positive about this gym is location. There are not enough bars for the benches and racks. Furthermore, at least 2 of the bars they do have are bent, and have been bent for months. Why hasnt the staff taken these bent bars off the floor? Mens locker room always smells awful. Only 2 stalls to go number 2. Parking is also a nightmare depending on the time of day. Only one hanging heavybag despite having hooks for 3.

Nice gym. Relatively clean. Mask mandate but few without? Learning to get there early to avoid the crowd.

Fe
Review №23

Every single time that I go to the gym, no matter if it’s in the morning or in the afternoon, half of the people DO NOT wear a mask. Even better, I have complained and nothing has come out of it AND the personnel at this LA Fitness do not say anything to people who do not wear their masks. Some of the people here walk around without any masks at all.

I have never really been a LA Fitness guy, but I got to tell you Zach the manager there absolutely changed my mind. I have tried out over 50 gyms, ans Zach is by far the most professional, personable, attentive, and helpful associate Ive ever come across. Thank you Zach, LA FITNESS is lucky to have you.

Review №28

Nobody wearing masks on cardio equipment (probably where you’re exerting the most) although signs clearly state they must be worn at all times on all equipment. Which means I should stay at home if I’m concerned, sure. But I ventured to the gym today for the first time since the pandemic started to test the waters! I was expecting Carson street to be the worst anyway. You know. But here’s the thing, La fitness, please don’t advertise and then contradict your intentions. If you don’t plan on enforcing your rules (saw people on the first floor walking around without masks) then don’t bother acting as if it’s a concern for your business. Just be like “hey we don’t care!” Lame to have posters up everywhere for rules you don’t enforce. If you think science is a hoax, the seriousness of the pandemic is unnecessary, then advertise that. Also, there was no soap in any of the bathroom dispensers. Pretty sure it was like this before the pandemic but Jesus Christ, get a handle on something.

Big sign outside of building literally falling down and has been for months. Exactly 50% of all running/biking equipment is missing cup holders and has been for months. Half of the hand sanitizer dispensers are ripped off the wall or gone. Half of the TVs on the running/biking machines do not even turn on let alone work. Do not enforce any rules when people leave their entire bags and jackets all over the main gym floor as signs literally right above them say not to. One of worst Pittsburgh LA fitness in my experience due to the problems above. Not personal but honest review.

Incredibly friendly staff and a very clean facility. LA fitness has everything from cycling classes to all the free weights youll need. The large selection of machines ensures that youll never have to wait for anything to show up. Upstairs there are tons of cardio machines and TRX bands. There are also large studios with different classes. All of the necessary safety precautions are being taken given the current situation. Very clean locker rooms and restroom facilities. Great gym.

This place is legit! I’m visiting from Dallas for the week but still need a place to workout and the LA Fitness on East Carson hooked me up with a 5 Day Guest Pass.The staff was super friendly and my man Zach at the front desk was super informative and helped me find a plan that was perfect for my needs. I also appreciate how seriously they are following social distancing protocol. Highly recommend to anyone in the area, and for people traveling here for just a few days👍🏼

The staff is very friendly. With this pandemic going on and since going “green” they are taking additional steps to assure the facility is clean and up to par for guests safety. Could be my favorite time to be here considering it’s not overcrowded with guests. All in all, great facility and great staff.

Zach provided stellar customer service to my partner and I when we signed up. He always checks up on my workouts and fitness progress, which I find very reassuring. Overall, the staff is very responsive to patron feedback as well as maintaining cleanliness across the facility. I prefer this location over any others.

Review №43

There are “mask is required” signs in the gym. But half of the people workout there do not care about others wellness (especially during the peak time), even some staff themselves don’t wear masks properly or not at all. Solid gym but the mask awareness needs to be enforced by the staff in the middle of pandemic.

This gym is absolutely unacceptable. The bathrooms are always disgusting, always out of soap and paper towels which is not safe with Covid-19 and the Equipment is old and trashy compared to other gyms in the city. This is absolutely not worth the price at all.

Super fun gym to work out at. The classes are fun and challenging and there are so many great people who work out there. All the staff is awesome and theyll say hi when you get there and bye when you leave. Andrew in memberships sometimes will give out free shirts and stuff if you let them give your friends free gym time. Oh, and you can sign up for a free personal training session with Ann. Shes so awesome and helpful. Love my gym!

First time in Pittsburgh and was looking for a gym while I was in town. I was told that LA Fitness, 2701 E Carson St. was the place to go.Upon my arrival, I was greeted and encouraged to enjoy the facilities.I have spent a week at this gym and I highly recommend it. The equipment is like new, many machines, benches and squat racks. Second floor has great change room facilities, studios and a lot of cardio machines. I haven’t had an issue with trying to get equipment and the overall vibe of the gym is enjoyable.When I come back to Pittsburgh, I will certainly be returning here.

I was given a free trial by one of their marketing staff at the regatta. I went to look at the gym and work out with no intention on seriously joining. Their senior membership counselor Andrew gave me a tour but didnt pressure me into joining the gym that day. I should have though. Everyone is super nice and motivating and its a really amazing environment. Cant wait to get into shape.

Review №70

Very welcoming and they offer a vast variety of programs and promotions. They dont have a lot of rules and let you work out. Always a clean atmosphere. Staff is always great respectful and courteous. I recommend 150% especially for family. Full range of just about any thing you can think of. When stuff breakdowns they fix it in a timely manor. Your search for a great gym and fitness and wellness center has stopped. No need to waste your time when you could be shedding pounds...

Review №71

There is no credibility in their management at all. The one who signed me up never mentioned that there’s an annual fee. My plan is to only to be a member for three months, why would I still pay that “annual fee” two months after I signed up. I called the manager and explained the situation and he didn’t help.

Review №72

I did my first day a personal training at the Southside LA Fitness today and I had a great experience. My trainer was Kevin, he was flexible, understanding, and he worked with me and my goals. He listened when I told him what was too easy and what felt great. Its nice to have somebody who actually cares and works with you and your specific goals. Its not all generalized. The pricing was fair and the Trainers hours seem to be very flexible. I like doing two points instead of one because I like to spend time with my trainer longer than 25 minutes. Its so enjoyable that Id rather spend as much time as I can and get all that I can out of it, which I was able to. Definitely would recommend. The personal trainer director, Brandon, is who got me into this and helped me get all set up. He explained it all very well and Im very comfortable and I feel like I know what Im doing and where Im going. Hes very conscious about my goals and really works with me and he actually spends a lot of time with me. I never feel rushed or unimportant. Definitely a great gym.

I belong to a few gyms in Pittsburgh but spend most of my time at this one due to the great equipment, cleanliness and friendly staff. The front desk lady, I think her name is Mia, always greets me and makes me feel welcome. Joey, the GM, has been helpful in assisting with my fitness related questions and inquiries about trying one of their personal trainers. Also, their late hours during the week help accommodate my busy schedule. I would definitely recommend that If you are looking for a place to workout, make this place a priority to try out.

I enjoy this gym. Not as big as some of the other LA Fitness’s and it does lack a few of the amenities that the other LA’s offer but for the price you pay compared to other gyms and for the very convenient location, this gym is well worth it. Great atmosphere with a very friendly and welcoming staff. They also offer some great classes. If you haven’t already, I would definitely come check it out!

I usually go Tuesday nights for Zumba class. The guy at the front desk never got off his phone to acknowledge me. Ive been there several times and he has done the samething. Also, the water in the bathroom is freezing cold to wash your hands. I dont know how many germs thats going to kill. And its always really hot upstairs.

Review №81

I used to belong to this gym, probably in 2013/2014. Very pricey. When I wanted to cancel they told me I could only do it from 9-5 M-F when a manager was there. Like most people, I also work those hours. So I had to pay for months and months until I could finally get my butt down there during these hours.The equipment is nice. The place is pretty clean. The location lends itself to being a gym that is constantly packed. I find that rather annoying, but Im sure its great for business. Just makes it harder to get the equipment that you want when you want it.Edit: It appears from more recent reviews that this LA Fitness still will not let you cancel your membership without jumping through all of the hoops. Please dont sign up for this place.

I use this gym while visiting family in Pittsburgh. The staff are always extremely helpful - happy to go above and beyond.

Such an unbelievably well run and safe facility! Ever since this location reopened after the outbreak of Covid-19 the staff top to bottom have done a great job keeping the place clean, and making sure members are following the health and safety guidelines. I along with many other members I know personally are very happy to have this place open to keep us all fit and healthy during these tough times!

Review №84

Not the best, but also not the worst. Place is kind of small (understandably for the location it’s in), and because of this, it’s always busy. One personal gripe is that there are water fountains, but no water bottle filling stations. What modern gym doesn’t have those? I expected more from a big name like LA Fitness, but I guess things could be worse.

Review №85

Very poor in every way. It’s always extremely messy and the bathroom never has soap, paper towels or toilet paper. There’s a constant smell in the whole gym that suggests a plumbing backup. If you have any other option, it will be better than this.

Im changing my review to 1 star. I called to ask about the price of a prepaid membership since the month to month one was a nightmare. The salesman wanted to be helpful but after almost 10 minutes of trying to get an exact price, I gave. Maybe he was new. I felt bad for him really. But he asked my name, which I declined to give. Two days later, they called me and asked for me by name. I left neither my name nor number for them when I called. I really dont appreciate that tactic at all. Very shady of them!
