If you read my previous review I mentioned my first trainer Teivin (Sam) had gotten promoted. I was pretty distressed about it actually but he reassured me I would be in good hands with AJ. He was so right! I've been with AJ over one month and couldn't be happier. AJ has an amazing build, one that clearly shows he has the knowledge I need to transform my body. AJ has risen to the challenge to continue my workouts where Teivin has left off. He is so motivating, has a warm and friendly disposition, keeps me laughing all the while getting down to business. My time with him is well spent. Workouts are varied and I am learning about all the machines/free weights that are available. He has motivated me to push myself, while at the same time keeping my training safe. He is working to make sure my limitations (bad back, wonky knee, wrist issues) are addressed and I can say I am really pleased with my results. Feeling better and looking better!! I look forward to coming to my sessions and have added more sessions to continue my health journey. AJ has helped me physically but also mentally believe in myself. I always leave the gym feeling I learned something new, pushed myself, all the while having fun. AJ is such a part of my success and I am glad to call LA Fitness my gym. Thank you Teivin for finding such an excellent trainer to hire. read more

Gym is overcrowded if you go after 4pm until close on a weekday. Like waiting for treadmills crowded. Facility is clean but does not have a basketball court or sauna. 80% of the time I just end up doing cardio because I do not want to wait for equipment and have a 2 hour work out. I would go only go here on weekends or early morning. read more

The Kids Club staff at LA Fitness on Addison are very nice, but management has handled the baby equipment situation poorly. I joined because I was told they accommodate babies starting at 3 months old, yet most of the baby equipment is old, faded, broken, or missing altogether. The two swing chairs for babies have been broken for weeks. Management repeatedly told me new chairs were being ordered, only for me to later find out they were never ordered. They then brought used chairs from another gym, and those do not even work either. There are no playpens, no mats, and barely any proper equipment for infants. Now I have to carry my own baby swing/chair every time I go to the gym while management continues delaying a real solution. It's frustrating to spend extra time and energy bringing baby equipment and repeatedly trying to resolve an issue that should have been fixed already. The manager only offered $15 for the inconvenience, which does not make up for the wasted time, stress, and poor communication. If a gym advertises childcare for babies as young as 3 months old, they should actually provide safe and functional equipment for them. read more

I got a membership at LA fitness about two years ago and I have been going to this gym on a consistent basis. I usually go in the morning at around 5:30 AM before work as the gym is usually packed during the evening. The gym equipment is great, and the gym is very spacious, but even in the mornings, I would say the place gets a little packed. The bathroom area is clean for the most part, but it does get dirty during busy time. All in all I would say you get what you paid for, it isn't the best gym, but it'll definitely work for most people. read more

Extremely disappointed with the professionalism displayed by Nic Jones, who appears to be in a district management role at LA Fitness. The way he speaks to members is discouraging, confrontational, and completely inappropriate for someone in a leadership position. Instead of creating a welcoming environment, he came across as arrogant, dismissive, and more focused on asserting authority than resolving concerns professionally. His attitude gave the impression of someone with a massive ego who lacks the confidence and emotional intelligence required to properly lead and interact with members. LA Fitness seriously needs to reevaluate whether individuals like Nic Jones are truly fit to represent the company in leadership positions. read more

GM is unfriendly and borderline rude. Power outages and unannounced cleanings have prevented me from working out on multiple occasions . Why not put up a notice a day or two before saying that treadmills and ellipticals will be unavailable at peak times ( I was there Monday morning 7am) )so that people don't waste their time showing up to discover this. Will be looking elsewhere for my next gym membership. My car was broken into in the hour I was working out and multiple other cars were hit also. They know they have a major issue with it as they post signs but yet appear to do nothing regarding security for the lot. read more

This gym is just not it. I wish they never bought out Xsport and closed them all down, especially the one in Mayfair. Now all those gym patrons from Xsport in that area go to this one which makes it packed at all times. There's literally no good time to go to this gym. Good luck working out in a timely manner. I even tried to go at 5am and it was still packed. They either need to extend their hours or open another location. Just so unfortunate because it's so close to me. read more

I really wanted to love this gym, but I am extremely disappointed in the lack of privacy in the women's locker room. Several times now, I have witnessed women taking selfies, filming TikToks, or facetiming while others are in the background. If you value your privacy, find another gym. read more

This location is crowned most days so cardio is the main reason someone should attend. There have been many vehicle break ins, if you value your vehicles safety or your own skip enrollment or attendance. They do not have any surveillance equipment installed. There have been so many break ins window glass can be seen all over the parking lot from near the building to the end near the Olive Garden. read more

Today I'm writing because the latest changes to this Gym management have taken a different and disappointing route regarding the dismissal of the trainers who was assigned to my wife for her personal training. The trainer assigned to my wife was Ytala and she was 3/4 of the total time we pay good money for. Ytala knew my wife limitations due to her medical conditions, with the training recommended by my wife doctor. If my wife is assigned a different trainer other than Ytala, we'll have no choice than request for reimbursement of the money I paid for the personal training and also cancellation of our LA Fitness membership. Management needs to understand that the customer is priority, that LA Fitness is nothing without their customers. Today we scheduled to train with Carla at 12:00pm and this was also cancelled because someone at the Gym wanted rescheduled for 2:00pm to find out that it was going to be with someone else other than Carla. The management team in this Gym is in disarray right now, and this needs to be corrected immediately before legal action is taken, fix it and fix it quick Nic Jones, don't put yourself before the customers. read more

OVER CROWDED!! Use to be okay. Was like any LA but now with the purchase of XSport and closing those locations instead of converting them it is OVER CROWDED. Constantly have to wait for machines. read more

So crowded it's unusable at all reasonable hours, especially if you'd like to lift any weights. No pool, no hot tub, no sauna, no stream, no courts of any kind. Definitely not worth your money, far better options all over Chicago. read more

Husband still goes here. Today they had an event for the end of the year to get people to sign up for personal training. My husband took them up on their free evaluation. During the evaluation, they berated him and made fun of him. When they asked if he snacks, he said he has a snack every day and they laughed and said "probably a full bag of chips". When he mentioned that sometimes he doesn't go to the gym because he is too tired in the morning and they mocked him for being "lazy". When they asked for his gym goals, they laughed at his goals! They made my husband (who has consistently gone to the gym for 8 years and gets hit on all the time) feel like garbage. They called him fat, stupid, and lazy (just not in those words) just to make him feel bad enough to spend $200 a month on their mediocre personal trainers. Terrible business ethics all around at this gym. read more

As many are saying, the gyms is so crowded it is nearly unusable and la fitness refuses to add equipment, increase hours or make any changes whatsoever. I am looking at options to switch gyms. I wouldn't recomend. read more

Brian, Jay, and Lissette are the best at LA Fitness! Great customer service, clean bathrooms, and everything you could need in a gym! I go around 3:45/4 on weekdays and never have any issues getting on any machine of choice. I'm forever thankful for Brian and jay for helping me find me AirPod I somehow dropped into the stair master! The only thing I wish they had was another extra water fountain or two and more cleaning stations. read more

This is a great location! I was visiting from California where we have the same LA chain. Shoutout to the sweetest front desk woman, I wish I had gotten her name but she was always there during the earliest hours the gym was open. Super kind and helpful with my guest pass and just always so pleasant. Nice gym staff is hard to come by these days so I appreciated her kindness. Space is huge and clean which I always appreciate as well. Also, all the weights were properly racked in the right spots (24 hour fitness needs to take some notes.) I had a really great experience and will always come to this one on my future Chicago visits :) read more

Club is just a big box no courts basketball Or Racquetball. I was told by corporate 1 (949) 255-7200 that they will NEVER build a new club with basketball or Racquetball courts. So if you like to play these sports and they sell you a membership says you can play. We'll soon there will be NO WHERE TO PLAY. Only 2 places in Chicago for racquetball Century and Canal downtown that's IT!! read more

Great gym! Live the atmosphere and the lighting! Super clean too! Friendly staff and employees

If I could rate this a 0 I would. Literally NEVER EVER buy a membership here. The company's only interest is to take your money. The contract is nearly impossible to get out of EVEN WITH AN INJURY. This corporation is horrible. Save yourself time, money, stress. Do not join LA fitness. I would recommend quite literally any other gym. I would rather be a member of a gym with one machine than LA fitness. read more

Yes everything is new and there's a big parking lot, but how can they forget a hot tub and pool in this location. So disappointing. What I'm told is if I want a hot tub there another LA off the highway I can go to, smh. Hope they can add this in the future. I know I'm not the only one disappointed from what I hear. read more

I have been to a few different locations of LA Fitness within Florida and Chicago and this facility is by far the best they have an amazing staff who are always upbeat and helpful with information and support not to mention their personal trainers are some of the best Iv worked out with they push you to your limits and provide amazing feedback and support. Love this LA for always being clean and having a great staff. Shout out to all the staff. read more

This club is amazing! I just signed up and the sales team was very helpful and made the process stress-free. The club is super clean and has all the machines you need to reach your goals. I also signed up for the personal training program they have and I have lost 20lbs already! The trainers are awesome and great on holding me accountable. Will definitely tell all my friends and family about this club! read more

I love the new gym on Addison near Kimball in Chicago. Tons of free parking makes this gym easy to access.

Great gym. I really didn't know what to expect and have been pleasantly surprised! Recommend.
