I also love that the workouts are custom made for you and take the guess work out so you just have to show up and work. And if you put in the work you WILL see and feel a difference. Chenell, Dirk, and Emilie are all really chill and fun and great at balancing being challenging with being supportive. Definitely recommend training here!

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 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.

Overall, great experience here. I love to show this place off to friends when I can too! With the new renovations, this place.....it's like when you thought a great thing couldn't get better!

Joo Hee made the entire process comfortable, motivating, and enjoyable from day one. What sets her apart is her ability to meet you where you are while still pushing you to become stronger and more confident. She pays close attention to form, explains the purpose behind each exercise, and creates workouts that are challenging without feeling overwhelming. Beyond her knowledge and professionalism, Joo Hee genuinely cares about her clients. She celebrates your progress, keeps you accountable, and always makes you feel supported. Every session feels productive, positive, and tailored to your goals. Since working with her, I've gained strength, improved my confidence in the gym, and developed healthier habits that have carried over into my daily life. If you're looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, encouraging, patient, and truly invested in your success, I can't recommend Joo Hee highly enough. She is simply outstanding.

I stopped showing up, not just physically, but mentally too. And honestly, I didn't know how to find my way back. That's where Joohee came into my life, and I can't even fully put into words what that's meant for me. From day one, she saw me as more than just someone trying to "get back in shape." She met me with so much patience, kindness, and understanding, and helped me rebuild something I thought I had lost. Little by little, she helped me reconnect with the version of myself that felt strong, grounded, and alive. Now I'm one month into my powerlifting journey with her, and it's crazy to say but I feel like I'm finally getting my spark back. Not just in the gym, but in life. I'm genuinely so grateful for her. Joohee isn't just a trainer. She's someone who helps you believe in yourself again when you've forgotten how. If you're in a place where things feel heavy or you've lost your way like I did, I hope you find someone like her. I'm still at the beginning of this journey, but for the first time in a long time, I feel excited about where I'm going.

They pay attention to keeping me safe during exercises, making sure I'm holding my body properly and they always emphasize that it's about doing a move slowly, safely and well so that you feel good/not in pain. I'm so much stronger now, and a lot of the pain I went into training with has subsided because they listened to what I needed/wanted and have tailored exercises to address these needs while also adding new moves to strengthen my whole body. I love Lee and highly recommend them as a trainer. Also check out their classes -- they're so much fun, they're challenging in a good way, and the music/vibes are always on point.

Gym Space: Not as vast as the gyms on the main USC campus but definitely my favorite gym out of all the USC ones. It has enough equipment for the demographic of students typically around this campus, making it super empty and kept clean. I never have a problem having one of the mirrored rooms to myself to do mat workouts and there are always a plethora of treadmills left open. Weights and mats are rarely ever missing too. They have sanitizing wipes in several corners of the gym space and a water refilling station by the lockers.

Background: I took a complimentary class with a loyal client of the studio a few weeks ago. I…read moredidn't know reservations were required, but was very appreciative of the owner's invitation to attend, despite the full class. Karl was supportive, positive, professional and both trainers gave individualized attention to the 11 people in the room. The classes really should be more like 6-7 people for the space though, and they could have spent more time demonstrating the circuit to help people avoid injury since it's faster-paced. Overall, good trainers, accommodating and challenging. I've been planning to purchase a bulk package for the year so I could attend on Saturdays with my friend, and in the meantime, I actively engaged with the Instagram page, trying out their exercises on my own, liking their posts, and recommending it to two of my own clients and a friend, just after the one session. However, as a business in 2017, how you interact with the public on social media is critical. Their Instagram is a nice extension of what they do in the classes, but I started to find some of their meat shaming rhetoric offensive (and PS: I'm not alone in this). I am not anti-vegan, simply a strong advocate for food and body positivity-- there are lots of ways to practice a healthy lifestyle. So I spoke out, letting them know that I found the tone to be repelling, and that it made me question whether the studio was the right fit for me. I shared my own negative experience as a vegan and pointed out that there needs to be substantiated evidence on the claim that "dead animals" cause inflammation of one's olfactory senses. If you're in the business of handling people's health, peer-reviewed, evidence-based, clinical science is kind of important... Perhaps my comment lacked decorum, but nonetheless, there is a way to handle negative comments productively-- they could have easily won me over with a single sentence. But instead, the business chose to become defensive, argumentative, and hostile, engaging in downright school yard bullying tactics. The business exploded my feed, strategically singling out dozens of my photos of unhealthy, caloric dense, meaty celebratory meals, and liking them; a passive aggressive move, as if pointedly saying, "Oh yeah, you wanna say something negative about OUR food choices, fatty?" Then, one of their clients surpassed the passive aggressive by directly calling me fat, lazy and a sugar/ saturated fat addict, making gross assumptions about my eating, body and workout habits, which the business tolerated and agreed with. All because I expressed the fact that I found the tone of her post to be insulting. You are supposed to be in the line of lifting people up and inspiring them. And while there's always some annoyingly sensitive PC client who takes offense to *something* (and perhaps that was me this time) how you handle people who express dissenting opinions is revelatory, and in this case, it demonstrates a severe lack of professionalism, insensitivity, and a disturbing vein of intolerance pulsing beneath the veneer of an otherwise decent studio.

I have been working with Elliot since May and the results are what I always wanted and more. I've been overweight and out of shape since my 20's and knew something needed to change, like now. My health was deteriorating, I was always tired, had no energy to do anything, poor eating habits and I finally decided enough was enough. I joined a indoor cycling gym in 2015 and I loved it but I wasn't getting the results that I wanted so I decided to step up my workouts and contacted Elliot. Let me tell you, it was THE BEST decision I have EVER made!!! After our initial consultation, they provided a nutritional meal plan that was very easy to follow and explained to me the importance of good nutrition. Elliot was always there for me when I had any questions. I started out at 2x a week and have now increased to 3x a week. My first session really put into perspective how out of shape I was but Elliot motivated and pushed me to continue and not give up and I didn't! My body immediately started to show changes, I was sore in places I never knew could be sore and I loved every second it. I'm finally getting the results I've always wanted but never could achieve. I have lost over 15 lbs, several inches from my body (down 4 pant sizes) and I'm stronger, both mentally and physically. I now have the energy and confidence to do things and my body craves the workouts. All this would not be possible if it weren't for Elliot and their mad training skills, motivating and pushing me all the way. Elliot is truly an amazing, attentive and inspiring personal trainer and is worth every single penny and then some. I've tried personal gyms and just couldn't get motivated or into it. I needed the one on one with someone who truly cares about their clients and I found this and so much more in Elliot. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking to get back in shape and lose weight. You will not be disappointed.
