Her interview showed me her professionalism and genuine investment in me as her client. Alina is exceptionally knowledgeable in both fitness and nutrition, and she knows how to apply it in a way that is safe, effective and empowering. She's very encouraging, and incredibly intuitive in how she tailors each training session- motivating and challenging with proper technique and form I began training with Alina weekly and, thanks to her guidance, I now train with her twice a week. Because of her training, I recently completed a 9 mile hike and felt strong, energized and proud of my endurance. I haven't felt this good in a long time, and I credit that to Alina's expertise and commitment to my growth. Thanks, Alina for building my strength and confidence. I'm excited for the new challenges you bring!

Alina is the absolute BEST there is! Truly cannot recommend her and her services highly enough! I…read morehave worked with other fitness coaches and trainers in the past and have never seen the kind of results I'm seeing with Alina. We've been working together for the past 7 months now and between the custom fitness & nutrition program she designed for me, as well as our in-person training sessions, I can honestly say I'm in the best shape I've been in since my early 20's. More importantly, I feel I've made genuinely sustainable, healthy lifestyle changes. And as a nice added bonus, I truly look forward to our in-person sessions every week because Alina is just an all-around lovely human and a joy to be around. Do yourself a favor and hire her for your fitness and nutrition needs! You won't be disappointed :-)

I originally signed up for Ultimate Performance thinking I'd only do a 12-week program. Nine months…read morelater, I'm still going strong. I've surpassed my original goal weight, lowered my body fat to healthy (nearly athletic) levels, and feel stronger, more toned, and confident. My clothes fit great, and most importantly, I've been able to stay consistent without feeling burned out or restricted. About 4-6 weeks in, it became clear this program was delivering results I hadn't experienced before, even after working with other trainers. Instead of feeling demoralized, I felt motivated and genuinely excited to show up. Working with Anton (at the new Santa Monica location) has been a huge part of that success. He has an incredible focus on form, education, and accountability, delivered in a way that feels supportive, doable, and sustainable. He's kind but firm, without the ego or machismo you often find in this space, and it's clear he and the entire team are invested in real progress, not just selling sessions. I've learned how to balance training, nutrition, and sleep, and how to fine-tune calories and macros in a way that supports my goals without feeling painfully restrictive. Ultimate Performance is professional, clean, and staffed by knowledgeable, friendly people. I'd highly recommend it to anyone who's busy but willing to commit, work hard, and build true health and fitness as a lifestyle, and not a quick fix.

The experience has been great. It requires commitment, focus, hard work, and actually doing the work. Anton helped me to focus on recovery and building strength so I could care for myself and my baby. But also loose the excess weight that I don't need on my small frame. I've lost 25 lbs since starting the program, and expect to loose more. I will continue to do this program as it's helped me reach a new level of stretch and establish health eating habits.

With their guidance, I lost 32 pounds (141 109) and nearly 9 inches off my waist (39" 30.5"). The transformation has been incredible -- I feel stronger, healthier, and more confident than ever. Angelina's program is completely personalized. What others are doing doesn't matter because Ray and Angelina tailor everything to your exact goals. If you follow their plan exactly -- even the small things -- you'll see real, lasting results. I'm beyond grateful for their support and encouragement, and I'll continue training with them.

It's a great feeling knowing what the exercises are doing for you and how to do them correctly. I look forward to every visit to Virtuo and seeing more and more results!

My partner and I signed up together to work out at Virtuo, it's been an amazing experience so far. From the very beginning, Brandon (the owner) was super attentive and really took the time to understand what we needed as a couple training together. Great energy and very professional. And can we talk about our trainer?! Huge, huge shoutout to Wolf! He's the best. Super attentive, crazy knowledgeable, and somehow makes working out actually fun. We train with him twice a week, and we genuinely look forward to every single session. Like, we wake up excited to work out. That's never happened before If you're thinking about signing up somewhere go to Virtuo and ask for Wolf. You won't regret it!

He's such an incredible trainer and overall human being. I've never felt uncomfortable around him and he's been super supportive in the areas of fitness I want to focus on. Toby's an incredible boxer as well and I love getting to learn from him. He's worked on a really great progression of training for me and I always leave feeling great. I'm never like, "aw dang I have training today." I 100% recommend him. You'll have no regrets!

She is tough on you without being mean, is an amazing motivator, and is just the sweetest little peach you could ever ask for. She has helped me so much with the constant overeating I was doing and get into shape. Her workouts are challenging as hell but fun, and she always switches them up- i'm never doing the same movements week after week with her. And again, I hate working out, but she manages to make it something to look forward to. Having just a little more joy in my life along with the mental and physical benefits I've had since meeting her are priceless. and I've seen more results in my body in the few months I've been with her than I did in years at the gym. Love you Angie!

Training Loft has literally been life changing. I've been going to the Melrose location for 2 years…read moreand was thrilled that they opened in Westwood, so now I can work out with my mom who lives in Brentwood (she's 80! :). When you join you get an eval with a physiotherapist, who then meets with the trainers to determine where you, specifically, need to start building strength. I have never in my life been stronger and we even healed a high school knee injury and a recent disc injury. Sessions are efficient and intensive, 30 min (but you can double up for a 60). For semi private, one trainer guides 3 people doing their own program, so it's completely custom and very hands on re: form, etc. The owners, Wayne and Stephen, have created an amazing program and vibe: Supportive, AUTHENTICALLY positive, with trainers who know what they're doing and are so personable. I have never felt unsafe, even as I advance to things I've never done before. Highly HIGHLY recommended.

I get there and the guy explains it's only with a 12 month sign up that you get the month free. That was not explained online at all. The ad said try equinox free until sept 1. Some summer promo they were doing. False advertising to get you to come in. Fine, I still wanted to see the gym before I commit to a 3k contract. I don't think that's unreasonable but he didn't even want to show me the gym. He said he could show me pictures only. Really? I know for a fact that they at least offer a 7 day trial. Why didn't he just sign me up for that until I decide? Or at least a simple tour? Even La fitness shows you around. How do I commit without even properly seeing the place or checking out their equipment? Totally rude guy with a superiority complex. I'm sure that's the vibe here generally anyways. The gym is close to my home so I really wanted to join. It's a shame. Major attitude and terrible customer service for a place that strives for excellence in order to justify the high cost.
