Fiance just signed us up for gym again so no more excuses lol! This LA fitness is kept clean. I like that they have different rooms for each workout. Friendly and helpful staff, good music playing and people seem to be respectable and minding their own, which is a plus for me. read more

LA Fitness - Gyms Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I was informed today LA Fitness has changed it's policy on video & tripod recording on the gym floor. As long as your not blocking walkways or intentionally recording others (Honor system LOL) it's now ok to film in this gym franchise. Lemme translate this for you. Were desperate for money and sacrificing your privacy once enjoyed for a few dollars more. Please don't notice you can get the same treatment at Planet fitness for only $10 a month but continue to pay more and receive less than here cause it's our way of extending middle finger to loyal members and wrecking gym culture even further. This is what you can expect at your gym now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9J3l3yBjds&t=14s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG_8irfn394 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDl5l5AwNWM read more

From my view as a guess the place is very clean needs to be a 4 star. Was welcome to a game of basketball. I didn't check the restroom. read more

4-6-25 Zero improvements since my last visit.Staff just walks right by and cleans nothing. This is what you walk into when the doors open at least every Saturday and Sunday. As always just a manager paying attention could solve all of this if there was any care at all. I can see this place closing in the future. It probably wouldn't sell due to the amount of repairs needed. read more

LA Fitness - Pool so cloudy you cant see your own feet! - Gyms Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

This place is located on West side of 55th Ave, North of Bell Rd. It has a different setup where the free weights are in a separate area towards the back right. They do have a basketball court which you cannot see but there is a walkway between the free weight room and the racketball courts. They have 3 squat racks (see photo), 3 benches, and 2 inclines. They also have some uncommon machines like the hip flexor and the grip strength machine (see photo). It was no very crowded at a peak time, 4pm weekday. Good location for workout. read more

Disappointed by the most recent photos of the spa room, since we were planning on coming in and using those amenities on the regular throughout the next few months. We most likely will continue not coming to this location, due to this reason. read more

Gym is decent. Equipment is a bit outdated, but for the most part still works pretty good. I don't personally use the pool area, only the sauna, but it seems the pool/spa/steam room are always out of service or being worked on so if I were someone who only wanted to come use those things that would be disappointing. The only bad thing about this place is the bathrooms are usually always pretty dirty. I understand it's a gym though so I don't expect it to be clean, but I feel like it could be taken care of better. It's still a decent gym though. read more

5536 W Bell Road location Pros ...The cleaning crew does a great job. Cons... The parking area is a mess...un-trimmed bushes...the asphalt is full of holes. Broken glass is often seen in the parking lot from vehicle windows. Lockers have been broken into many times. Lockers are not monitored, and locks are left on for extended periods. Members leave duffle bags and backpacks in workout areas.....saftey issue Members blasting boom boxes. Today I was working out and two guys started throwing blows at each other. I have been a member for many years... I have concerns everyday about the safety of my vehicle...I quit using the lockers because I continued to hear about break-ins. Time to find a new gym. read more

STAY AWAY FROM THIS GYM, you're better off paying a premium somewhere else or settling down with the comfort of a planet fitness. I came in with the intention of purchasing a day pass to check out the gym and their equipment the GM tried so hard to run up a scam signing me up with a 7day pass and membership start date while texting his buddy to come over and persuade me to get a membership and sign up for training classes when I have made it clear i did not want to at the time. At the end of the day it's a bussiness, the sales guys do not understand no is no. The staff are so desperate for people and a commission leading aggressive sales including non stop calls/texting. read more

It's 7:15 and the gym is still not open. It should be open at 7am. No sign at the door when it will open and people are waiting outside in the heat. I'm leaving after 15 minutes of waiting in the car. Good luck everyone out there still waiting. Let's not forget that this location is a rebranding of LA Fitness which had bad reviews as well. read more

LA Fitness - Gyms Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

A friend of mine must have referred me and given them my number because they call me all day every day sometimes three times in a day! I work in a medical clinic and don't have my phone with me ever to answer the phone to tell them I'm not interested. You would think after leaving a voicemail and a few calls they would leave me alone once I never got back to them but apparently not. it's harassment at this point - please stop harassing potential members with non stop calls and voicemails. If we wanted a membership we would stop by! read more

LA Fitness - The amount of times I get their calls throughout the day - Gyms Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I have been working out at this gym since 2015 and have never felt the need to abandon my membership, until now. This is the gym for YOU if you are: #1, an individual who identifies as a male ( you will have access to the personal training area even without paying the extra 100 dollars a month. As I was told I needed to pay in order to access the training area), #2 if you don't have any regard for others (you will fit right in) , and #3 if you enjoy seeing more skin from their personal trainers than what should be allowed in public (my own experience of getting a free show from a personal trainer who decided to not wear spandex under his shorts). Oh and let's not forget that the personal training staff was allowing the dispersion of political propaganda to other fellow gym goers. I was unaware that I could make this gym into a political showcase. I truly hope they turnover the staff, or at least try and even out the "off-putting" behavior. read more

59th Ave location has the steam room closed over 70% of the time. can t count the times I've came wanting to get a nice relaxing steam and they put up another sign saying it's down for repairs. You'd think in 2 years whatever the problem was would've been fixed And it could be open for more than 2 weeks without closing for more repairs. Just close this location it's always been the worst one. read more

Years later and now with a toddler, I decided to get back into fitness- this being the nearest one. I am extremely disappointed in the daycare, the absolute hardest job in the whole ENTIRE gym is the person watching over other people's children, and yet, they don't seem to have the correct thought process in place when they are short staffed, ( im not talking about the people in the daycare watching honestly seems like they have 0 say; I'm talking about the people who make the decisions for these people TO watch the kids) .. it seems as though they place the least qualified person in there when short staffed, or they hire just anyone willing to be in there to save some money.... meanwhile there's 3-4 others lolly gaggin at the front on their phones- it seems as though no one wants the hard job so they throw one person in....like it's a game of "Not it!" maybe have TWO people in there during these times?? I'm not blaming the person stepping in, it's truly not an easy job but I AM blaming the thought process of management.. something's gotta change. Overall my child likes it but I am extremely uneasy when they are short staffed in there.... Sanitation also isn't huge in the daycare- rugs prob need a serious deep clean. Toys need disinfecting etc... Instead of 3 people lolIy gaggin at the front- pay the people in the day care a bit more, and In turn you'll have more paying members, less people calling in and parents that can feel at ease while working out.. I was also followed into the locker room sauna on Super Bowl, and sent 2 emails + did a complaint in person and there was never a follow up. this review update was long overdo read more

Terrible customer service and some sub par equipment. Bikes don't even have foot straps. Not sure how this place stayed open past the pandemic. read more

This has to be the WORST gym experience I have had in my life. The Fitness Manager is hostile, aggressive and unprofessional. I have lifted at gyms for over 15 years and never had any issues before coming here. The fact that this place is in business with people like that on their staff is amazing. I would not come here under any circumstance. Stay as far away from this place as you can! read more

They finally cleaned the inside up quite a bit, but it wasn't enough for me to stay and keep paying $28/month. Some of the nasty carpet was ripped out and replaced with tile. And they put in TVs along with new lockers and benches in the locker rooms. One of the noticeable things is the complete lack of women in this gym, and especially in the spa and swimming pool. There's usually 5-6 guys in the spa and it's kind of weird. One time, I was doing laps in the pool and caught this really hot, 5'11" modeling chick at one end. This WT creeper hops in the pool like 20 feet from her. She probably got nervous and left, cause I never saw her again. So FYI if you're even a decent-looking chick; you'll be in the minority here. I added a few pictures. They drained the pool in October but overlooked a few dirty spots at the water level. Also, people will just hop in the spa after a workout (without showering), so you'll see dirt bubbles floating at the top. This is completely unacceptable. The 24 Hour Fitness a few miles to the east of here has got this place beat. It's also available for less than half the cost of LA Fitness if you buy the Costco 2-year plan. read more

As far as LA Fitness clubs go, this one is my favorite. It has a nice basketball court that always seems to have at least a few guys in it to play pickup game, as well as a well-maintained pool and locker room, and a good sized free weight room that is separated by large glass windows from the rest of the club. I like the layout with the treadmills and bikes on the second level, and with the free weight room being separated. The employees are always friendly and I have never had any trouble with this LA Fitness This LA Fitness does have your normal, unavoidable large club problems such as the 5pm-7pm rush, waiting for machines, occasional broken machines and sometimes a large group of teens that take up equipment for long amounts of time while talking and laughing. However, overall, I enjoy this club and it is my personal favorite among the LA Fitness clubs and large gyms overall (Golds, 24 Hour, etc). read more

I've been a member at LA Fitness for over 3 years but never utilized the gym regularly until I began personal training sessions with Gordon. I've been very pleased with the training. Gordon has been very professional and reliable. His workouts are motivational and I can definitely feel the results. His schedule is very flexible with day, evening, and weekend appointments. I absolutely recommend Gordon at LA Fitness to anyone looking at using a personal trainer. read more

I tried to cancel my membership and they wouldn't allow it. Kept transferring me over to other co workers until I got tired of it and hung up. Bad services. I switched over to a competing gym and it's the best thing I've done read more

I've been coming to this gym for years and I have always been pleased with the cleanliness of it and variety of machines. It has great classes, just wish it had a weekday 8:30 yoga class. It has a nice pool, men's and women's saunas , racquetball courts and daycare. I haven't worked with a trainer but notice a lot of others do. read more

If I could give this 0 stars I would, this gym smells funky everywhere, honestly it smells like a sewer! The cleaning ladies can only do so much, this building is too old and has plumbing issues. Not a clean place at all! I was gagging and almost threw up in my mouth as I was using the toilet ! My gym partner and i immediately left after doing 1 Exercise. We were excited to workout here but we will never be coming here ever again! Xoxoxoxo read more

So I'm visiting from Texas. Was calling multiple gyms in the Glendale area and they were trying to charge me an arm and a leg for a weekend gym pass. I called Esporta and Eddie was kind enough to offer me a weekend pass pro bono! All he asked was that I leave a review. So based off that conversation, customer service is a 5/5. Once I got to the gym Eddie was kind enough to sign me up in within minutes. He then gave me a tour of the gym. And I to say I was really impressed. Everything from the layout to the cleanliness. This is one of the best gyms I've been too. Thanks again Eddie! read more

I have been going to this gym since August and signed up for a personal trainer right away. The prices are very reasonable especially when you see results! My trainer is Gordon, he is great! Very informative during our training sessions. He ensures my posture is correct, that I have good form and gives me workouts to do through out the week. Most importantly he doesn't let me slack off, he pushes me during workouts and holds me accountable. I signed up for training to get stronger. Before I couldn't even attempt to do a pull up and now I can do 4. I see the results from working hard but I couldn't have done it without my trainer. Signing up at this gym was a great decision. The staff here are all very helpful and very kind! 5536 W Bell Rd Glendale, AZ 85308 read more

I trained with Gordon Dennison at this LA Fitness for seven or eight years. When I started I had an old, partial meniscal tear of my right knee that was severe enough to cause reduced mobility. In general I was really good about doing cardio but always steered clear of the free weights room. All that changed when I met Gordon. I did so many traditional and side lunges with squats on Kick A@$ Mondays (Gordon's term not mine) that I walked downstairs sideways on Tuesdays. The results though, were dramatic. I became SUPER confident with free weights and started to see my muscles developing right before my eyes. We did these "21s" which are a series of bar pushups that basically cause you to pray in languages known and unknown but simultaneously give you great results. Gordon was great about teaching me different moves both on free weights and on machines and really encouraged me to master good form first so i can safely lift, meaning I don't get sidelined by injuries. Here's the bad news, I moved to Missouri and for some reason Gordon could not be convinced to move with me so now I am trainerless. I still work out but I now compare every new trainer to Gordon and alas there is only one Gordon. He won't let you quit so you may say four letter words during your workout but you will love the results afterwards. A definite 10, two thumbs up and five stars from me for Gordon. read more

I wanted to add a review, it's been a while since I went to this place. (Back in December) I was walked through a tour by the manager that I already established I wasn't interested in and he took it personal. I kept telling him I took pre workout and was ready to work out I just needed to sign up. He kept making comments that I didn't know what I was doing and I was letting them go and ignoring him. Finally we went to the sign up process and he keeps continuing to talk after. Then he asks me a pointed question which was also a hidden insult and I finally went "why are we still talking? I'd like to work out now." Just confused why I'm held captive in a conversation and he blew up. He started yelling and getting upset. I was in shock with my mouth open the whole time. All I wanted was to come and work out but he wanted me to sit on machines and tell me all this gym information I politely declined to begin with. After that incident the other manager followed us around trying to explain what happened like I wasn't just asking him to leave and I had to ask him to leave us alone more than 10 times. The absolute worst experience I ever had anywhere. They both don't know when to take it if people don't want to be involved with them. I handled myself well but I was so frustrated asking someone to leave who wasn't listening. I tried to contact a corporate and it was just them calling over and over again. It's scary to think they could know my address, name, phone number. Do not come here. After seeing the reviews I wish I read them before going in. Why are the managers harassing people? read more

I must say I was very impressed with the excellent service I received today from Mike, the Manager in their Fitness Sales Area at this location. I called on the phone to renew my membership due to life happening and it lapsing of my own accord. The employee who picked up the phone was most polite and pointed me in Mike's direction. I explained my situation and my fitness needs and he happily made the process simple and found a quick resolution. I ended up driving down to the location and beginning a new membership and he provided me plenty of options to choose from. He also educated me on their process for KidsClub and adding that on to my membership in case I would like to bring my toddler in during certain hours to be watched whilst I developed my healthy gym habit. It's so great to feel taken care of, have all your questions answered and feel educated on what you are signing up for. Mike, certainly went above and beyond. I always enjoyed this location in the past and even more so now. I'm pleased to have been able to renew my membership today and that I got more than I asked for. read more

I like this gym I had a pass to try them out. It's a great gym however I currently go to planet fitness and the showers at planet are so convenient because they are basically and all in one with stool to set your stuff on and shower right by it it's very private you don't have to walk out to the locker room to get dressed and soooo much cleaner than this gym I wish they would update there showers I'd definitely start a memebership with them if they did read more

I am a former member of 24 hour fitness and ended up at this location when they closed the gym at 43rd Ave and Bell. I really liked 24 hr and begrudgingly went here. If it werent for the basketball court for my husband I would have gone elsewhere. That being said, I have come to really enjoy this gym. Most of the staff is friendly, clean enough for a smelly gym and has *most* of what I need. The best part about this gym is the training. My trainer Aaron H. is awesome! He is flexible, fun and knows his stuff. Training can be pricey, but I go continually because I really feel it is a benefit for me. The value I receive is worth the investment.I also enjoy my interactions with the rest of the trainers and training managers. If anyone wanted my 2 cents it would be this: Tell the bros that other people work out there and do not want to hear all about their epic weekend while they are hogging all the equipment and that putting weights away will not limit their "gains." And for goodness sakes, get a power rack! read more

It's good enough, a decent gym. Just go and work out and stop whining about little things. Gyms should be a snowflake free zone. It has everything you need to work out and get buff, so stop the sniveling read more

Why this franchise feels the need to play pop music on full blast starting from 6am to the end of the day is a wonder. Even their staff hates it. All of us gym members talk about it and it's why we have to wear headphones. As soon as a gym comes out with normal music or hopefully none at all I am canceling my membership immediately. read more

ABSOLUTELY INAPPROPRIATE! I setup an appointment with Stanley, who claimed to be the gym general manager, and asked to take a tour of the gym and receive some information. Stanley appeared to be under the influence of substances, as he was fixated with his cell phone, stuttering, and could not keep on one topic for more than a minute. Stan started by asking me my nationality... I responded, and he then felt compelled to show a half naked picture of his "girlfriend" who is of the same racial descent, and proceeded to scroll through multiple pictures of her modeling (was this why I came here?). He started our conversation off with his girlfriend, "the supermodel" (nothing to do with the gym membership). Stan then asked me about my Gucci handbag, and claims his aunt in Detroit is a fashion designer, and he gets free Gucci merchandise due to her high status in the industry...AGAIN, nothing to do with my sole focus of the meeting. After a brief tour of the facilities, Stan brought me back to his cube and proceeded to continue to be fixated by his phone, showing my pictures of instagram pictures of half naked women in thongs. One of his examples, he claimed to train, as she appeared to be a competition body builder. He said, and I quote, "We banged it out in my garage for 3 months straight...well, not BANG it out...haha you know what I mean." I had only been at the gym for 15 minutes, and the sexual innuendos did not stop there. Stan then went on to reminisce about himself (because, you know, this meeting was all about him) and opened his photo album on his phone, once again, to show me his body during his "football days". NOTHING was accomplished during my "meeting" but a slideshow of naked women, and attempting to speak business with a man who can't hold a sentence. As the "meeting" adjourned, I told Stan I appreciated the tour (the meeting, not so much), and will be touching base with him after more research. Stan made ZERO eye contact, and continued to scroll through his phone. When I got up to say goodbye, he did not shake my hand, did not stand up, and again NO EYE CONTACT, and said "later" as he scrolled through his phone of naked women, and his football selfies from 1984. I called Stan 2 days later, asking why another LA Fitness was offering a better deal, and if he can match their price since this location was closer to my home. He said they were different entities, and I thanked him for his time and he said "Yup" and hung up the phone. If Stanley is the gym general manager, LA Fitness should seriously consider drug screenings and hiring proper, professionals to represent their company. I will NEVER become a member of this gym, and will never refer. read more

I use to be a member for years, though canceled my membership about 2 years ago. About a month ago I went in to get a new membership using my employers discount. The man that I was working with was difficult. He wanted to charge me more then what was discounted through my work. I even had the print out from work that I was to have brought in to prove I would get a membership at that rate. I was so frustrated. The man picked up on my frustration and started to down talk me saying I didn't print the right print out. I ended up walking out when he was talking because at that point he wouldn't shut up and listen. When I was about to the door he started making fun of the situation with the guy sitting next to him. Never again will I be a member. I now go to 24 hr fitness on 43rd ave and bell. read more

Tried this location for the first time today and I really enjoyed the lay out of the facility. The pool was interesting as you had your standard lap lanes but then they had a separate area to just chill. The hot tub was small and dirty so definitely shower before and after using it because apparently idiots don't like to follow the guidelines to shower before use. The sauna room was small compared to other gyms but it was sufficient and did its job as well as the steam room but it was also tiny. I didn't see any cleaning staff and we were there on a Sunday from 230PM to 4PM. Front desk staff were there but not very friendly and they didn't smile and or greet you as you entered the club or even say bye after leaving the club. We are only LA Fitness members because 24 HR fitness sold out to them in the Phoenix market. 24 HR was always cleaner, had cleaning staff at all times and staff was always cordial. LA Fitness has shitty hours with most clubs closed at 11PM and 8PM on weekends. However, this location has what I want in a gym. Pool, Jacuzzi, Steam/Sauna and racquetball courts. I have no contract with them so I can tell them to kick rocks anytime I want. So I will give it try for the reasons mentioned above. If you don't care about the amenities above then I would recommend Planet Fitness on 51st & Bell. I have a membership with them as well because they are open 24 hours a day and I can get my cardio & weight training there. read more

Club is clean, front desk is friendly and ran well. But stay far away from the salespeople especially the General Manager. Oscar is a real piece of work. I've worked out there for years but he's the first GM I've ever seen disparage elderly members as well as be down right disrespectful if he doesn't think people have money. He's impossible to miss, he sits behind his desk all day being miserable. Complaining loud enough to be heard when checking in and out of the club. read more

I was a long standing member of 24 Hour Fitness; and happy there too. When LaFitness bought out my gym I was frustrated but I tried to keep an open mind. I desperately wanted it to work out because I have friends and a support network who transfered when 24 Hour Fitness closed. My first impression was, the staff cared less about making you feel welcome. I had to finally ask where the locker rooms and pool were, I had to ask about how the sign in worked and how to apply the account to my phone. It felt like a real imposition for her to tell me there was an app I could install. Pushing that aside; I loved the aqua aerobics class. Barbara was amazing. She made it incredibly fun. I got a real workout from it. The group was friendly enough. At this point I could have been happy with LaFitness. The sauna and steam rooms were clean enough. Going back into the locker rooms and shower area I was appalled by the filth. The floor was disgusting, the showers had black mold, and these tiny grey bugs were in the grout. This was a huge disappointment! While mentioning this might have resolved the problem there were other issues that made me generally unhappy with the transition to LaFitness. My husband decided after not attending the gym in several months decided to cancel his membership. He joined 24 Hour Fitness the same time I did. We never signed a contract with LaFitness. He called and told them over the phone he would not be renewing his membership. The person on the phone never mentioned the need to go in to a gym and speak to a manager to cancel. So after a few days he began to receive phone calls EVERY 2 hours every day over the course of 3 weeks. Because, apparently his request to cancel his membership from a gym he didn't originally sign up with never was processed. His increasing aggravation resulted in my complaint to a manager who could not have been more rude or cared less. I made my complaint about the dirty showers and changing area while he continued to greet incoming members. This only half listening behavior continued while I explained my husband's frustration. He only waved the charges "incurred " on my husband's account after I mentioned we never signed contracts with LaFitness. My illusions of the gym caring about customer satisfaction were shattered; my first impression was correct. It was at this point I decided to cut my losses and look for a new gym. read more

I was hesitant to continue my membership after 24 Hour Fitness was purchased by La Fitness.The kids club is big,beautiful, & clean and they have nice people working there. I am extremely disappointed with the ability ( or lack thereof) to watch television while I work out. I know it sounds kind of lazy but that was a big draw about my other gym big screen TVs you could adjust. I have a fm radio that doesn't come in clearly ( thats what they gave me and I have to borrow it each time) I'm struggling to be even be able to listen to a station. Unfortunately none of the TVs are tuned in to the station I usually like to watch discovery ID while I workout , oh well I can't hear them anyway I hope they change this because they would earn a five star review. read more

Can't stand this place. The workout area smells terrible. I was told that my gym bag is too large and I am not allowed to bring it with me when I workout. My gym bag has equipment contained in it (belt, knee sleeves, lifting shoes, etc) and is always kept out of the way of others. At the same time, people are allowed huge racquetball bags lined up outside the racquetball courts. There are also weights left on the bar or not put away and I routinely find dumbbells where they don't belong and someone could easily trip over. read more
