JOHN REED Fitness - Los Angeles (CA)

Celestina Lucero This gym is huge, with a lot of great equipment, but it is one of the messiest gyms! Management doesn’t enforce the maintenance of weights & the overall cleanliness of the gym. You can get a good workout in, but plan for extra time, just trying to find the equipment, because it’s not where it’s supposed to be.

Daniel Amaro First time to this location, had business to attend and decided to workout nearby. I was hesitant at first, after reading so many negative reviews. This LAFITNESS location did not disappoint, multiple layers of workout space, they have plenty of machines and free weights; all working. The locker room, bathrooms and showers were very clean. The entire staff was friendly and on top of things for what I saw. Also the people working out was cool and handling workout business. Parking structure seen safe and clean, walking security at all times. Validation inside the LAFitness front desk. Overall excellent gym and recommend! I’ll probably be back, had a good workout.

Larry Baird Best kept secret in central LA! Convenient to Culver City, Whole Foods, Baldwin Hills, West Adams - and the metro E line train. Friendly staff and clientele - with new equipment and plenty of it! Always immaculately clean, high-end locker/shower/dry sauna areas. Most importantly, you are never waiting for machines or equipment.

Calvin Bonser One of the most carefully curated gyms I’ve ever been to. They have equipment for everything you need and then some. I highly recommend the lab for anyone who is serious about working out or athletes looking for the right set up to improve performance. Also the owner Rocco is the man!

Andy Terzyan This review is for the gym/ club itself, NOT the hotel. My wife and I toured the facility recently and spent the majority of the day there eating, exercising, studying, etc. LAAC is a diamond in the rough and has A LOT of potential to be even better. The gym isn’t as big as other commercial gyms in terms of the machines and workout equipment but it has everything you need. The pool is amazing and one of the deepest I’ve seen in the area. The other amenities are also awesome and it’s a great place to hang out, meet people, grab a bite or drink. The only complaint I have is that while certain areas are very upscale and have been remodeled, other areas haven’t been touched in years/ decades. If a decent amount is set aside to repaint/ remodel/ replace carpets etc. LAAC will be unmatched. Some of the higher floors dedicated to some of the work out classes/ handball and whatnot are tired and are in need to be remodeled and carpets need to be taken out. Since they are under new management, I’m staying hopeful that some of these areas will be worked on which will push LAAC to flourish for another 100 years.

Jasmine Stanley-Ahmed Great gym, small but packed with a good range of equipment. Friendly and local. Very reasonably priced. Really enjoy working out here. Would definitely recommend.

Satoru Gojō This gym location isn’t bad at all they have great section of kettlebells and a nice section for you to stretch. I’m pretty upset about the hours but I respect it. There will be a new hour change for those who used to go there at midnight.

John Reding I hate fitness classes. Like, really. So I just took the plunge and decided to do PlyoFitness for six weeks. This place is different. Steve has a wonderful way of actually making exercise fun. Hes created an environment with social support in a non-judgemental format, thats challenging for both the daily walker to pro bodybuilder. I still hate fitness classes, but I love PlyoFitness.

Gianluca Alessi The best gym in LA!!! Such a good vibes! Good trainers for boxing classes, I recommend 100% this place if you want to enjoy a good workout with professional trainers.

Ki Nassauer I am not a fan of working out, but I am a HUGE fan of STLA! I knew when I hit 70 I needed to do something to re-build my strength and stamina to keep up with 4 grandchildren. Working out with Jonathan has allowed me to exceed my expectations! I am able to lift heavy grocery bags, get in and out of my car at record speed and carry two kids at a time all while keeping my balance. I convinced a few gal pals to join me and we have been committed to 3 days a week for more than a year. Cheers to staying strong!
