Best Gyms with Functional Training Equipment near Oxnard, California

I have been a loyal member of this gym for almost 10 years. Today, as it happened, I forgot my key. I waited outside the gym for 5 to 10 minutes hoping to get someone (like a manager, etc.) on the phone, but no answer. Finally, I saw someone inside the gym that I recognized, and she let me in. Come to find out the owner (Sergio) was sitting in his office with his feet up, making a private call the whole time. Or at least, my guess was that it was personal, based on his giggling. I now Signal to him that I have an issue, and he ignores me. Then the lady that had let me in signals to him, as he is her personal trainer; he ignored her too. In the interest of time I decided to just get on with my workout and discuss my issue with him later. Soon he gets up from his office, comes out and confronts me, telling me to “sit down” as if I am a kid at school and he is the principal. At the beginning of the pandemic, I called this gym to put my membership on pause, however, the gym continued to charge me all the way through the pandemic up to the present day. If this fellow who is both the owner and a personal trainer is wrapped up in his personal phone calls, he should at least treat long term paying customers in a more respectful way. On top of everything, my time waiting outside and then inside was wasted for absolutely no reason. I think this irresponsible and unprofessional dude needs to see this in print so he recognizes the consequences of his unprofessional attitude.

Facility is small with limited equipment, untrustworthy, and is overpriced as well. The only positive aspect of this gym is the 24 hour access one has to it, besides that there really isn’t much else. They have an annoying cancellation policy that can’t be done through the phone or online that takes 30 days to happen and in those 30 days you will still be paying fees. When trying to cancel my account I payed ALL! the fees that would have occurred in the 30 day span in advance and turned in my key before a date given to me by the owner, we shook hands to confirm this would be the case. Despite this agreement the owner proceeded to try and charge once again for another month weeks after my final payment was done. Called the facility to report the problem but they denied accountability. I had to contact my bank to resolve this issue because it is quite a terrifying feeling knowing an untrustworthy facility has your bank info. The owner seems to only care about the client when he is benefiting from their money and will jump through endless hurdles to avoid losing that monthly charge he gets from you.

Alex provide a quality service for me, she took me on a tour in this location, as I costumer am happy, Thank you guys!

Literally LOVE the customer service and the environment in the gym. All of the staff are so helpful and they really put all of their effort into pushing you towards your goal. Alex & Sergio are amazing! I appreciate them in so many ways! Alex always pushes me to do my best and is so encouraging. I’m glad to have her as my trainer! Thank you guys for all that y’all have done for me.

The best place to help you achieve your fitness goals. If you need one on one training they knowledgable trainers ready to assist you.. They also group fitness classes if you are into group workouts.

The equipment is new and freshly revamped, and they have a clean gym for the most part. The staff is friendly. Their BEST worker is Lynda!!! Lynda works in the early morning. She makes the gym! She is courteous, always smiles, and says “welcome” or “Have a good day,” Lynda works hard to keep the gym clean and disinfected. She should be a manager. There could be a more assertive approach in telling people to clean the equipment. The worst part of the workout experience might not even be the gym, but that is why I do not give five stars… they have this parking lot cleaner who uses a blower, and the dust gets all over your car; he has no respect, and I have had to have my car detailed several times the paint checked for scratches. After my year is up, I will go to another gym. But “For the money,” it can’t be beat..

As a truck driver I’ve been to over 75 pf’s all over the nation. I go 4-5x a week and I have to say this is by far the worst of any that I’ve been to. Everything is dirty. I didn’t even wanna shower here because I felt I’ve leave dirtier. Pee and water and filth all over the locker room floors. No one cleans in this place and that’s apparent. Nothing but kids and homeless people visit this place. Staff is useless. I hope management sees this and makes the necessary changes.

The ladies who greet me every time I come in, make me feel welcome. I am disabled with a walker, but am able to get on and off the machines by myself Most people working out are kind and considerate of me. Great news equipment.

It's my 3rd PF location visit. I usually go to the Burbank location and once went to the Lancaster location. Oxnard is the smallest of them. There are​ at least 2 machines that they don't have that the other two have and only 2 stair machines (4 at Lancaster and 6 at Burbank). Locker room is way smaller but everything seems clean and well maintained. The black card spa has 2 massage chairs, two hydro beds, three tanning booths and one body enhancement booth. I don't know how busy it usually gets here but at the time I was there (3am) there were 3 or 4 people working out. Much less than I'm used to see at Burbank. What bothered me most is that none of the other members bothered to wipe down the equipment after they're​ done. Also, I haven't noticed any signs asking to do so. They left the machines wet with sweat and moved on.

I love this gym bc it’s getting better with the new manager, Ana, who just got transferred from Camarillo.

I’m a member and I wanted to go ONE night with my teenage daughter, they don’t have a day pass for her because she’s under age. That’s crazy! The previous owner let me get my daughter and me for a fee, but this new owner policy didn’t let me. So instead, that night I went to 24 hours fitness, I paid for two passes and it was so easy! This new owner needs to update this policy because he will lose money and I might change my membership to another gym if they don’t allow me to take my daughter like other gyms do!

This gym has an excellent selection of equipment catering to all types of lifters, making it one of the best gyms in the area for serious weight training. The staff is friendly and does a great job maintaining the gym floor and enforcing house rules, though better regulation of tripod setups would be appreciated. However, there are some downsides. The black walls and dim lighting create unnecessary eye strain and detract from the overall energy of the space. The music is often geared toward a younger crowd, which may not appeal to all members. The bathrooms are consistently unclean, so it’s best to avoid using them if possible. Additionally, there are no lockers available, and they don’t offer day passes for guests, whether paid in cash or free. Despite these issues, the gym’s equipment and atmosphere for serious lifters still make it a solid choice for dedicated fitness enthusiasts.

overall this gym is great. negative anecdotes: i froze my membership for a month and was told i would need to come in IRL to reactivate my membership, but they charged me the following month anyway. so keep an eye on their admin. they are also extremely inconsistent and micromanage-y about their change plates, especially with female members. CrossFit vets, beware trying to get a "normal" lifting sesh in in the functional fitness area. it would be helpful to be able use the 2.5s + 5s...progressive overload without 20# jumps, ya know? anyway, the bathrooms are looking fantastic and the pool will be great in the summer, i hope.

Legends Barbell is an awesome gym with top-notch equipment and a motivating atmosphere. The staff is friendly and the environment is perfect for serious workouts. Whether you’re lifting heavy or just getting started, this place has everything you need. Highly recommend!

Signing in as a visitor be like Mission Impossible. I had to input my information multiple times (as well as my sponsor). The system finally accepted our information. A few minutes after I started my workout, I remembered I had left something in my car. I let the front desk know I’d be right back. They were happy to inform me that I would not be let back in if I left. I explained that I was just going to my car. And they said, “yeah. And you won’t be let back in…” 👀 Yeah. Never going back as a visitor for sure (even though my buddy pays extra to have visitors), nor would I ever get a membership at such a place. However, they would get a FIVE STAR in one area: Incredibly great at anti-advertisement. 🤨

Thank you for a great couple of days! We were welcomed into the gym, shown around, and really enjoyed our workouts. Definitely will be back next time I’m in town. Thank you to Miguel for welcoming us in and being available for questions. Great gym, great equipment!

I walked around this gym as a guest for an hour and joined today. It has everything I need for my workouts, the people are friendly but efficient with their use of the machines and also have good situational awareness, the changing room is clean. I love how much space there is, how many options there are for exercise, this is great. The photos I'm showing you are just a glimpse the gym is much bigger and has more options than even that. That's just a general idea of the feel of the place. Look forward to working out there tomorrow.

I think it's one of the top gyms in town with all their promises. I do my own workouts at night, so I don't really know about the personal trainers or group classes. My only issue is with the brown paper towel dispensers since they often run out, so a heads-up to keep checking would be great. Thanks!

I had a really disappointing experience at Gold’s Gym. First, I encountered rude employees who seemed uninterested in assisting me or answering questions. The equipment wasn’t well-maintained, and several machines appeared to be in need of service or repairs. To top it off, the check-in scanner wasn’t working properly, causing unnecessary delays and confusion at the front desk. Overall, it was a frustrating visit, and I expected better from such a well-known gym. I hope they address these issues soon.

VERY DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICES! Signed up for a gym membership back in February of 2023 under some promotion they were doing under my brother, fast forward to December 4th of that year which was the last time I went to golds gym I spoke with someone from the sales department regarding canceling my gym membership because I was signing up for mma and no longer wished to continue coming to golds. Not sure if the employee I spoke with still works there but he lied to me about canceling my gym membership because apparently they were still charging my brother under his account and was not made aware about this until today. Honestly that's my fault for assuming that their employees were honest but I can see why now California passed a law saying that any membership that you can sign-up for online, must be able to be cancelled online. The sales employee who lied to met about canceling my membership is a dishonest clown.
