LA Fitness

I went to the LA fitness on Foster Ave for the 1st time. It was pretty nice!! It is a newer gym! The equipment was in good condition. I like how the people at the front desk greet you hi and bye! The gym was clean also! You can tell the people cleaning the gym take pride in their work and have attention to detail. Making sure the place stays looking great! LA Fitness took over XSport. I saw some regulars from the Elston XSport over here now. Overall a great experience! Will return! I do wish the showers were a touch bigger or had movable shower heads.

So many broken machines, the place is incredibly overcrowded at all times, and the staff is useless unless they’re trying to sell you something. On top of all that, it’s expensive. If you’re reading this and thinking about opening a gym near this one—do it. Seriously. People will flock to your gym because everyone is beyond fed up with this place. To top it off, their responses to reviews are a joke. All they ever say is, “Thank you so much for the review!” without actually addressing any of the issues people are raising. It’s just another greedy gym that managed to go downhill in less than two years. What a disappointment. Shame on them.

At peak hours, the place looks like a rave concert, way too crowded for my taste. I guess that's what happens when you eliminate your competition in the area. Based on that, only i might have to start looking for alternatives. Overall, the gym is nice - very clean, people are friendly, equipment is good and maintained, and sometimes they'll even give free smoothies trying to make you forget that the place is way too crowded 😄. My recommendation is to increase the schedule so you'll be able to accommodate some of the new customers and find a way to calculate the foot traffic for each machine. This way, you'll know what gym equipment needs to be added if needed or replaced if it's not used. Some of the machines, even at peak hours, are not used at all ; they just take space for nothing. Hope everyone will have a great year!

Working with Sofia, personal trainer, at LA was fun and empowering! I started working with her in June of 2024 - almost 2 years since I had my kid. I hadn’t worked out in years and was nervous about starting again. She got to know me, my goals, and my general worries about my health. She helped me feel comfortable while still pushing me to increase my strength. Sofia is a gem! Could not recommend her enough, especially for people looking to get back to working out after having a kid.

This gym used to be amazing. We joined over a year ago and had great workouts until the recent Xsport merger. Likely will cancel membership. I wouldn’t recommend this gym anymore. Now this gym is essentially unusable. It is incredibly crowded at all times. They have eliminated the nearby competition so there’s really not any other options in this area.
