LA Fitness

I stopped by from out of town to get a good workout in during the holiday and these guys made it happen! Friendly, professional staff and the gym itself is super clean with weights put back where they go! Can’t recommend these guys enough. They even had a few machines to really isolate areas I haven’t seen in other gyms. Thanks for the pump!

It’s very clean and has everything you need – classes are good
But the staff is very unhappy so I’m thinking it’s not a good place to work
Trainers have no energy –very dull
I have a membership at Fitness Works as well
Amazing trainers and friendly smiling staff but very dirty
I wish I could combine them –then you’d have the perfect gym:)

New, clean gym with plenty of machines, brand new equipment, excellent instructors, small classes. Plenty of amenities incl. pool, sauna, racquet ball courts. Aquafit, pilates classes have fantastic instructors, zumba, yoga classes also available — overall recommend.

This is one of the cleanest club that I ever been to. The place has everything that I needed with the latest equipment, hot sauna, cool swimming pool, hot tub, weights. It has everything I wanted in the club except steam room.

To start off, I have been an LA Fitness member for 7 years (off and on, and dedicated to particular locations.) I have always enjoyed the cleanliness and the fact that the buildings are updated with the best machines. That being said, in the past 7 years I have also gone to a total of 4 different locations, never fully being happy until this one was built. The location is conveniently off the 202 and easily accessible. The staff is always welcoming, and greet members proactively as they come in (for the most part, rarely is there not someone manning the front desk). For understandable reasons, this is my favorite person to interact with, since they are the first employee I see when I enter and typically the last one I see when leaving. The facility is very clean and the machines are well maintained.

My old gym was the LA Fitness over on Dobson & Warner in Chandler, which I found to be dated and depressing. I made the move to this one in Gilbert because it appeared to be newly built, and I wanted a change. I am totally happy now, because the equipment here is all new, and the crowd that works out in the evening is a good mix. I’m thrilled that the treadmills here have integrated television screens with closed captioning, since I refuse to wear my glasses while working out. One thing that bothers me greatly is that the treadmills will implement a Cool Down phase after 20 minutes, which takes the frantic pressing of buttons to try to defeat. Be forewarned that the speed will slow once you hit that 20-​minute mark… it’s a bit off-​putting if you’re not paying attention.
I understand the reason for the 20-​minute «warning», since this is the recommended maximum time if other people are waiting for the treadmills, but so far, there have always been treadmills available for everyone who wanted one. The swell of after-​work gymgoers is a little thick during the weekdays, but for the most part, this gym can get crowded but has never been «packed to the gills» in my experience.
So I’m mostly pleased to make this my regular gym. I feel the $ 29 a month is worth it. My only other complaint is that the water fountains don’t seem to dispense very cold water, but my workaround is to pack a prechilled canteen or two of water to get me through my workout. My experience is that there is a good mix of body types, fitness levels, and ages that frequent this gym. It’s pretty convenient to get to since it is right off of the 202 loop, and gas and cold sports drinks are mere blocks away at a Circle K, should you need some for the drive home.

I’ve been to several of the LA Fitness locations in the valley and this one is the best by far. Granted this is the newest location but it has a lot going for it. Free weight section is huge, tons of cardio equipment and the spin class area is pretty impressive. The best part about this location is free wifi!!!

Joined here 4 months ago… Decided against it because of the pushiness, desperation shady feeling I had and cancelled it within the 3 day timeframe provided in the contract. Someone else on here called them sharks. Sharks are like puppies compared to these people! They have continued to bill my credit card despite repeated calls. Their obviously commissioned and overzealous sales people are not given correct information as they keep calling to collect. Months after I cancelled!!! After talking to so many of the Jim Jones salespeople and being told that the contract was cancelled and they would not bother me anymore… guess what? They have still been trying to charge me and have been stalking me by phone! Yep. By now I have had enough. Next step. contacted the Office of the President… AND sent letters to the State Attorney General, CFPB, California Attorney General, Chase Bank and the Subject Gilbert location I initially got brainwashed into signing up for. So I spoke to the office of the President and was told that my contract was cancelled but «keep all evidence just in case»! WTF? So today I received a letter from Chase Bank that stated that LA Fitness is disputing and are claiming they are owed the money. Really LA Fitness? Is this how you run your business? With this behavior you are far over taking the euphemism of the used car salesman. Totally surpassed the tales of the snake oil salesman and are about par with the Nigerian scam… Hopefully there are enough of us to expose what a predator your company is. My time is worth a lot of money and disputing your narcissistic approach of «helping» people stay healthy through exercise is becoming expensive. To those of you that may need to end your contract in the future, I suggest just having one of the salespeople move in with you. That way they can harass you, steal your money, and piss you off greatly on a daily basis. For now, I will continue to wait for the response from the Government agencies. Who, by the way, have their own private gyms quite unlike LA Fitness. OVERALL ASSESSMENT? A resounding F&$@ NO!!! Oh, and yes, this will be posted on other social media sites.

Cleaner and better than Mountainside (more cardio machines, more weight machines, pool) but something MUST be done about the A/​C situation in the morning — whenever it is the least bit humid outside, the cardio area is absolutely miserable. Not sure if they have one of those «green» A/​C systems or what…

I had a freak experience with the staff. I felt welcomed, had all my questions answered, and given a great tour of the gym the first visit. I felt the rates were higher than a Planet Purple or Fitness Works but fair for what you get. For $ 30 a month I have access to everything in the gym including basketball and raquet ball courts.
It is a little more than I was paying but I believe in the old saying of you get what you pay for! I was quite pleased my first visit and just finish my first workout there this morning.
Overall, it was clean and I was treated well. It’s a gym, so the rest is on me! LA Fitness did their part and did it well.

I hate this gym… There’s not a contract but there’s also a form of a contract when it comes to canceling! And also, DO NOT SIGN UP FOR PERSONAL TRAINING! I wish I avoided my personal training consultation but of course, they have sharks here that make you sign up for things under pressure like car sales people. It’s not horrible if you go to the newest locations. All the older ones suck majorly!

Came in for a tour, staff seemed not to be able to comprehend what customer service is. Facility is nice, not fan of their plates especially if you dead lift regularly. Child care looks like some where I would like to leave my kid if I wanted to punish him. Overall, it is literally just a gym. The fact that it’s «new» brings it it’s «sexiness», when in reality it is like any other LA. The price point is fair, I suppose you could say you get what you pay for.
