The cost of his services are way lower than at other gyms and you get actual one on one training. I really like that I am able to make my own schedule as I have a very busy life. Jeff had created a tailored program for me that has me wanting to go work out. Great for anyone who wants to get into shape but doesn't want to spend millions doing it.

You will not regret going to see Jeff! He changed my life for the best and can absolutely do the…read moresame for you. In April, I was going through a tough breakup and at over 200 pounds. I called Jeff and went in to meet with him and was sold right away by his charm, energy, passion for the job and prices! Now, six months later, I am so glad I made that leap and am 30 pounds down not only due to his support with physical activity but because of his willingness to be there for me emotionally and mentally when necessary as it is of utmost importance to your process to have a supportive, kind and helpful voice even if it's while you are huffing and puffing through your exercises! Going to see Jeff is always bound to be full of laughs and positive energy alongside hard work! He is dedicated and focuses on your needs and tracks your heart rate to get an idea of what you need specifically and at what level you should be working. You'll never feel like you have to throw up, as I have with other trainers (not normal!!). Jeff keeps a close eye on your heart rate and body language to ensure you are working at an optimal level for fat loss or whatever it is you're looking for. After working with Jeff, I recommended him to my brother, who had a completely different set of expectations (muscle gain) than me (weight loss) for Jeff. He walked out of his first session and called me right away to say thanks for recommending Jeff and that he was pretty sure Jeff would change his life :). Sure enough, they've been working together and have made great strides too!! There is honestly no one better to start and finish your journey with! Look no further because you have found the guy that will work by your side to get you what you want! I honestly can't say enough to get you to contact him and just get out there! The drive down Riverside is always beautiful and gives me a bit of time to think before arriving and some time to be really proud on the way home. You'll be happy when you're pants fit nicely or even loosely instead of tight and your skin clears up and people start complimenting you! I know I was! It's all up to you to make the changes, but it's also really important to surround yourself with positive upbeat people who don't judge and who know what they're doing and how to tailor a program to you! Jeff can do all of that and more :) Contact me through Yelp if you have any questions regarding this review :)

I'm not going to bother reviewing this LA Fitness on Moross. It's overall fine for what you get…read more Not great just fine. The machines are frequently down. The patrons can be inconsiderate. There was a woman next to me on the stepper the other day who literally listened to her music at volume. Just plain old bad manners. That being said the club itself is a 3. Lately I've been taking the classes offered with my membership. The class times are real limited but hey, I'm dealing with it. That being said I didn't expect much when I walked into Karen N's weight lifting and abs class. I thought it was going to be easy breezy. It wasn't. Karen N is a bad ass and she kicked my ass. She's great! Highly recommend. Thanks Karen N!

The absolute most disgusting gym with the worst service and worst patrons I've EVER gone to. Allow…read moreme to explain why: 1) Patrons are incredibly loud, rude, have no etiquette with wiping down the machines. Most patrons will will have their speaker at FULL volume without any consideration. 2) This one is specific to the men who hang out at the weight area and are so loud you can hear them from the moon. Vulgar conversation, yelling, acting like its their clubhouse without consideration for other guests. It's distracting and innappropriate. Beyond annoying. 3) The staff here is useless. Watch the manager sit on her phone the entire time. THE ENTIRE TIME! THE ENTIRE TIME! She's getting paid to literally do nothing. Her attitude reflects it as well. 4) The bathroom makes me want to vomit and is unsanitary. Horrendous behavior goes on. I do not get to enjoy anything in there like the pool or the sauna because the guests are so vulgar and misbehaved. 5) All the men there hog the machines like they own the place and intimidate you if you try and say anything. This is a dangerous place for women. 6) Staff at the front...you might want to get off your phone and be attentive to who comes in. They are always on their phone. 7) MACHINES ARE ALWAYS AND CONSISTENTLY DOWN. 8) Staff never cleans the machines. I am there frequently enough to recognize the same disgusting garbage left behind at the different stations . 9) They constantly have the most obnoxious and irrelevant vendors set up at the front. It doesn't even make sense. Girl scout cookies, the police academy, some guy selling hideous shirts. This is a gym. No one wants the hallway blocked with this ridiculous selling push. 10) THE GUESTS ARE ARE ALL INCREDIBLY LOUD, RUDE, LACK ETIQUETTE, HAVE NO CONSIDERATION FOR OTHER PEOPLE. AND THE MANAGEMENT JUST ENJOYS IT. The absolute worst gym I've ever been to. I'll be emailing corporate as well. I doubt anyone will do anything about the behavior here. What an outstanding feat to be the worst gym in the world. Disgusting. Do better, but I doubt you will. I will be posting pictures later on as well.

In addition to the hour long small group classes, I took advantage of weekly calls with a nutritionist, had access to an In-Body scale to track my progress and made new friends. If your goal is to surround yourself with high value, hard-working, disciplined people who want to achieve a healthier lifestyle through diet and exercise then schedule an appointment to check out this locally owned gym.

My experience going into Crossfit in the D has been great. I never thought I would enjoy CrossFit,…read morehowever I've used the movements I'm able to do as a survival tool. The Coaches has worked with me on the other movements I'm able to do. Being a man of color, I look for diversity which I like. Which CrossFit in the D has. The Coaches are nice and holds me accountable which I need. Side note when I was suffering from depression and after my father passed away. I was away from the gym for months. The Coaches were calling, texting and encouraging me to get back in the gym. In some ways CrossFit in the D saved my life. Isn't this what a community is about? If you're looking for this in a gym and coaches. CrossFit in my opinion is the place to train. Much love to Dave, Jen, Ibis and Zak

Upon arriving to the gym coach Todd introduced himself and provided me an overview of the gym layout and equipment. The facility is extremely well kept, as is the equipment.

I met several members of the community throughout the week and found everyone to be both pleasant and helpful. Overall a fantastic gym and community. It also does not hurt that it is collocated with a smoothie/juice bar. I definitely recommend those in the area drop-in, as I had a great experience.

See: going to a random yoga drop in and the instructor throwing out pose names without any guidance and me covertly seeing how my neighbor is bending. Thankfully, Body Garage is the opposite of that. The classes have great descriptions for what the workout entails, and each instructor that I have taken classes with has explained every exercise with detail and is great at meeting people at whatever level they are at. Really diverse classes too in terms of age and fitness levels, so you don't feel like you're working out in a class of pro athletes. It's easy to book classes online and there are lots of time slots to work with everyone's schedules. Also Terra, the owner, is just a fantastic human being. Her classes are my favorite to attend!

I am probably not the only person who has sat in their car outside triple-checking the address to make sure I was in the right spot. DBG has a variety of classes that are all a play on car-mechanic terms (e.g. Full Throttle, High Octane, Suspension). The classes vary in length and cater to the different needs and goals of the clients. For instance, there is a class called Firebirds whose description starts "Bring your stroller & let's get moving Mamas!" which mentions movement but also community. Though I will never attend this class, I am glad the local mothers are able to work out and build community. Tune-up is the class that I have attended and it fits in with what I need: it's usually at noon during the week and it an intense 30 min full body workout. The gym does have pretty good central air so if you get a spot right under a vent and in front of a fan, you can make it through this class in the height of summer without dying. DBG also does community events and various free workouts and happy hours that they post on their social media if you want to try them out in a no commitment way. I got an introductory priced class pass, that I found on the MindBody app and when that runs out, I will buy regularly-priced punch card, though they also have monthly membership and drop-in rates too.
