LA Fitness

I received more than excellent attention from Emanuel and Aundru.Yesterday, September 20, 2023, I arrived at LA Fitness in Otay to reactivate my membership after having stopped attending for approximately 8 months. Upon arriving at the reception I asked to speak to someone in Spanish and they immediately called Emanuel, to whom I explained my situation, he immediately looked up my information and informed me of the next steps. I mentioned that I would make a phone call to my insurance and he wrote down what I needed to ask my insurance, he stayed there in case I needed help, which happened, Emanuel gave me the information I needed, reactivated my membership and introduced me to Andrew, who talked to me about how positive it is to exercise constantly. All this was done in a very kind way that seems natural to both of them. If you go to LA Fitness ask for Emanuel and/or Andrew. You will be amazed at the excellent service!

Great spotUpdate: showers have mold and a decent amount spread out. 09/14/2023 just saw this as I went to shower

One of the larger La fitness clubs most of the machines are in working order but..nearly all the barbell bars are bent for bench and squat witch is very unsafe for bench and squat I would complain but I’ve delt with La fitness clubs and even corporate about replacing barbells and they will not by any means replace damaged equipment and trying to explain the dangers of damaged bar bells just goes know where they could care less about people getting injured or being able to workout properly. Eastlake particularly has a lot of bent barbells like nearly all of them I don’t know why 24 doesn’t have this problem probably better quality. And I do know the why they are being bent shout out to that ahole who loads the bar up in the power rack way to heavy for him to lift rack pulls and drops over 400 pounds on the safety pins. I used to see that same guy at another La fitness and they must have said something to him as they were finding more and more bent bars but at this location they barely leave the front end to observe operations. So with all that it’s still a ok location purely because of the size as it get packed and you can still have room to breathe at the peak hours.

What I really like about L.A. Fitness is that they're generally consistent across the board with the equipment, facilities and how they're maintained. Some are a bit better than others but generally I can get almost any type of workout I need to get done here.I DO miss when they had just normal paper towels and spray, which have been replaced by the sanitizer wipes since the pandemic. My only big issue with these is that they don't always get filled on time and some stations stay empty for days. Which when you're in a building primarily populated by lots of sweaty humans, can be disconcerting.

Not too busy today. The etiquette has improved quit a bit. People are cleaning up after themselves.

LA fitness is my fav spot for exercise and meditation

I don’t know where these good reviews are coming from. These people must’ve never been to a decent gym. Don’t let the pretty building fool you. It’s straight out of the early 2000’s. The weight room and cardio floor is cramped. TINY. It’s crowded and every bench and machine is taken. Good luck getting in a decent workout. I’m so saddened as I just moved here, now I will be looking to leave LA Fitness. I refuse to let this be my new home gym 😭Update: still a dump. My husband and I gave this place another try with an open mind and it was just as terrible if not worse than our first attempt. CROWDED, filthy and stuffy. There are lines for machines like they waiting to go through TSA. My husband says both times there was no toilet paper in the bathrooms and it was filthy. I can confirm the women’s restroom is also disgusting. It appears the members don’t know how to flush a toilet.

Unprofessional gym that takes no accountability in what goes on in there. Multiple people have been stealing phones and personal belongings and staff does the bare minimum about it. Weeks go by and they act like they don’t know what you’re talking about when you ask for updates. Staff is lazy and nonchalant about any issues brought to them. Not the cleanest gym either. Won’t be going to this location anymore and wouldn’t recommend anyone else going either. Save your time and money.

I love all the things this gym offers !! The staff is super friendly and encouraging!! Erica and Issac were super welcoming:) I also love the classes offered and I don’t feel out of place !!

The LA Fit here is one of the more clean and well organized gyms in the South Bay. Definitely recommend it those living down south.
