I've been working out with Al for a few years now, and could not be happier. Al focuses on the…read morethings I need such as improving muscles needed to elevate the pain in my lower back. I have also been taking my daughter to work with Al so that he can help her strengthen the right areas needed to avoid future injuries as an athlete.

Al knows how to target what each person needs, has a great personality and keeps things fresh and challenging. Could not recommend anyone more.

I started working out at Lift two months ago, and I absolutely love it…read more The workouts are effective and efficient, and, if you're a nerd like me, it's interesting to hear Dirk and Chenell talk about how the movements strengthen different muscle groups. They're always nearby to make sure my form is correct, and they never lose patience when I ask them to remind me how to do certain moves. Speaking of supervision, I went to Lift today for the first time in about a week and a half, and I told Chenell that I've been experiencing some pain in my left shoulder. She sent Dirk outside to talk to me about it, and after I described my symptoms, he re-wrote part of my workout and continued to check in to make sure I wasn't in any pain. I felt super safe and respected, and there was ZERO pressure for me to push through any discomfort. Hiiiighly recommend this place!

I started working out at Lift Silverlake seven weeks ago and my experience there has been 100%…read morepositive, far exceeding any expectations I had regarding the process and results I might see. It has been years since I've stepped foot in a gym, and I'm not young, so I had misgivings about how the training would go, but those misgivings have disappeared. I have always been active in one form or another, first as a (modest) school athlete, then in the military, and finally just interested in general fitness, but my time with Chenell, Dirk, and Emilie has yielded results (already?!) I've never felt or seen before. Going into this, I submitted information about my background and goals, and I feel it's clear that the team really listened and that I am on a tailored program directly addressing my goals. I am by no means an expert in weightlifting, and thus far have needed many reminders about which exercise is which, what the movements are, etc. but I always feel comfortable asking for those reminders. Dirk and/or Chenell, and/or Emilie are consistently close by for those reminders, or to help with adjustments to form, and pointing out if it might be time to increase resistance (weights) because of increased strength over time. I told myself I was "only" going to do two workouts per week when I started, and almost immediately (and eagerly) bumped it up to three workouts per weeks since I could feel and see positive results almost from the very beginning. I've since discovered that some close friends have also had great experiences at Lift Silverlake, and I've already found myself recommending it to friends based on my experience there.

Highly recommend AHF, and especially Rocky if you're considering personal training.

I was recommended this gym by a friend, I started my fitness journey earlier this year…read more Unfortunately I deal with mild anxiety and using big machines is kind of intimidating at other gyms. I decided to come and check it out, I was also looking for personal training just to get the guidance that I so desperately need. I had my assessment with Miguel, and man this guy made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. Throughout the entire hour I spent with him, there was not one moment I felt self-conscious or judged, I felt right at home and it was because of his disposition. He found ways to relate to my personal experience, he managed to make me come out of my shell (which is not a very easy thing to do). By the end of the assessment I knew this would be my new home gym, I needed to become a member AND I needed to sign up for personal training with him of course. I am now a proud member of LM Fitness, I cannot wait to continue to work with Miguel and all the amazing people I have met so far. I have been at this location twice now and every single time the vibe just feels right, I cannot wait to experience this little family they have created.

Lance is a rare gem for fitness in LA. He actively strives to keep his prices reasonable out of…read moreethics and respect for his clients, although he could easily raise them, as he's always fully booked. He will often sacrifice his own workout time to accommodate a client. Since I can't do personal training as often as I'd like, Lance created a personalized "Push Day" and "Pull Day" program for me that I can take to the gym and do on my own. He doesn't judge you and genuinely cares. He has celebrity clients and has trained some huge names, yet he makes me feel equally important. His new studio location is full of brand new equipment and is in a cool spot in Glassell Park near all the new restaurants there. Plus his dog Bud is adorable! He'll hang out with you while you work out, so you get a dose of animal therapy too. I worked with Lance a while back but fell off. Lance has actively encouraged me to get back into motion. I am now restarting my fitness journey after some time off due to his support. It's wonderful to feel like you have an ally in something so important and so personal. Thanks, Lance.

Lance is awesome and you'll get an excellent workout with him
