Ultimate Health Personal Training Center

Procrastinated for a life time & once we get exercise lazy its almost impossible to find that inner motivation again-​found this studio online, took the chance & so glad I did. John is amazing, so on it, he is helping me to achieve what I need, motivates, works me hard & truly, the energy I feel the next day-​wow, the best. Free parking, good location, super clean and private. For all your training needs in LA-​look no further.

I recently spent several weeks down in the Los Angeles area and wanted to keep up with my exercise. I was referred to Ultimate Health Personal Training by a friend who said they were the best in Los Angeles. Glad I did, nice private studio. My personal trainer John keep things interesting and challenging, every workout was different from the next. I will definitely return when I am back that way again.

I was looking for a trainer to get back in shape a while back and a friend referred me to Ultimate Health for personal training. Well, its been a few months now and I have to say I couldn’t be happier. It’s easy to see why they’ve been in business so long. My personal trainer John might be the best in Los Angeles.

My husband has been going to John for years and has always raved about him. I recently started going with him and love it! I’ve had some back issues due to bad form in an exercise class that I was going to regularly. I think the one on one attention from John makes a huge difference. He’s an excellent personal trainer — incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. He knows what exercises my body can handle and what will strengthen my back. It’s been better than physical therapy! He also keeps it fun and the time flies by. John is the best!

Hands down best personal trainer in Los Angeles! I’ve been seeing John for over 8 years now and can’t recommend him enough. He’s knowledgable in fitness, nutrition, general aches & pains, and even helpful with the occasional relationship advice.
I changed jobs two years ago and his studio was no longer on my way home from work, so i decided to try someone closer. I spent more money for far less training and I started to lose muscle. Beyond that, I found the gym the other trainer used to train clients intimidating. I hadn’t realized how much I appreciated John’s private studio free of gym rats and meatheads. Needless to say, I’m driving the extra few miles to see John again… and feeling healthy and strong.

As an ex-​athlete I like to stay very fit, but also have had my share of injuries. I was looking for a fitness trainer with experience who’s is also athletic, but not a steroid stallion, that just feels like a cheat to me. I preferred a private gym, not a big fan of the health club scene.
I found Ultimate Health here on Unilocal,its close to my house in Hollywood and i liked the reviews so I called and talked to John the owner.
Well its been 2 months and I couldn’t be happier. John keeps it fresh challenging me with new workouts regularly. I feel great and my girlfriend says I’m looking hot. The place is a super private personal training studio so, no waiting for equipment like at the shared gyms I’ve been to. He’s definitely the best personal trainer in Los Angeles I’ve had, the best period.

I started working with John a little over two years ago after having a Pilates trainer for a few years. I was already in pretty good shape but wanted to change my work out style and get more lean but still have some muscle. I can’t believe in 6 months I lost about 20 pounds and I’ve maintained this weight since I’ve since been working with him. My weight and waist size are what they are when I graduated high school (and believe me, that was a while ago!) I’m also more muscular too, not like a body-​builder but like an athlete. Even my back pain has gone away which I still had when I was doing Pilates.
John just seems to have a lot of common sense when it comes to working out and diet. I would rate him the best trainer in Los Angeles.

My weight loss journey began about 4 years ago, my heaviest weight being 250. I started by eating healthier and incorporating light cardio into the mix. Having lost 60 pounds on my own, I was introduced to John in August 2013 through my best friend who is also his client. I immediately felt comfortable and at home at Ultimate Health.
John challenges his clients in the best way possible, making you feel at ease and in control of your workouts. He never pushes you too far, as previous trainers have done to me, but pushes just far enough to get you out of your comfort zone. He understands each client’s limits and abilities. I have learned so much from John about fueling my body properly with the right foods, fallen in love with circuit training as well as kick boxing. I have even referred two of my friends to John, and they are now happy clients of his as well.
Continuing this journey with more than 80 pounds lost, a completely transformed body that is tighter and leaner than ever before, I always look forward to my 2 – 3 days a week with John at Ultimate Health.

I cannot say enough great things about personal training with John at Ultimate Health! I have never met someone who is so knowledgeable on personalizing workouts for each client.
I began going to John for training at the beginning of the 2013 summer. I have had knee pain since before two knee surgeries 12 years ago. When the surgeries didn’t alleviate the pain, I went to trying everything else: from months of expensive physical therapy, to daily medicine, stretching, exercises at home, everything. Nothing seemed to work… until I found John.
After just a month or two of going to John for training, I felt less pain than in the past 15 years. On top of making my knees feel better, I lost almost 10 pounds in those first few months, completely tightened my body up, and improved my eating thanks to John’s guidance.
In the past year my body has transformed, and coming to John and Ultimate Health has become an extremely important part of my life. I’ve never felt better, and I’ve never had so many compliments! I feel motivated, I love that it’s in a private setting, and I love the variety of workouts I get (weights, kickboxing, etc.) It’s amazing how strong my body has become, and how much more I can do with my improved knees.
I’ve referred several friends and each is just as happy as I am.
I highly recommend Ultimate Health for personal training to anyone and everyone!

The results just keep on coming! I have continued to work out with John 3x/​week for more than 18 months now in his personal training studio. I have lost more than 80 lbs. Last year, with John’s training, I was able to hike not just one, but two 14,000′ mountain peaks and carry a 40 lb backpack several miles at high altitude. My mental, physical, and emotional well being have all improved considerably since I started working out with him. Because of my improved health, my doctor has been able to eliminate medications. John continues to make changes to the workout routine so that it is never boring and so that I continue to get results. His nutritional knowledge has helped me make important lifestyle changes that are reasonable and sustainable. Every plan, every workout is personalized and private. I love working out in his gym; it’s bright, fully equipped, and in a convenient location. Parking is free and secure, a definite plus in LA. John is absolutely the best personal trainer in Los Angeles!

I am updating my review, because i’ve now been going here for over 6 years — and i think its the best thing for my health and wellbeing. in fact, my wife has now joined me.
John is a great trainer, and i really think he’s one of the top personal trainers in LA, but dont take my word for it — go check it out and get a session.
Go!

I am really impressed with John at Ultimate Health Personal Training Center because unlike other personal trainers I feel John is truly dedicated to helping people get in better conditioning and shape. I feel John is the best personal trainer in Los Angeles because he truly cares about and understands the body and his passion is obvious when you talk to him. Being a personal trainer is not a pastime job while he waits to become an actor, as I have found with so many other trainers. He has been a personal trainer for over 25 years and it is his career. John is atop of all the latest exercise and diet craze and will educate if it is a positive or negative «fad». He is very knowledgeable about my particular needs and how to get me to work out to get the best results. In the past other personal trainers I have worked with had me start out doing heavy weighs and exercises that caused me injuries because they exercise everyone,(no matter the age and condition) the same way. John takes into consideration, age, shape, condition and goals to set a personalized plan just for me, unlike some cookie-​cutter «personal trainers». John is down to earth, friendly and truly loves seeing his clients get results. He can’t do the work for me (darn) but he sure can push and motivate me.

I am writing this review after having three training sessions at this place. John is very fun and knows his stuff. I think he mostly does half hour training sessions that are really specific to your level. I never know what to expect from personal trainers, since some of them are like not motivators or some are too hard or think they’re the new Jilian. John creates a personalized training session that felt just the right amount of hard. Totally friendly, not intimidating, and down to earth. OH and his gym is really nice, and a good combination of all kinds of fitness gear from balance balls, to boxing equipment. I would recommend this trainer if you’re nervous about personal training.
