A TRUE GEM OF A TRAINER!!! I cannot say enough about how much Alina has helped me with her personal…read moretraining and nutrition counselling. She is a world of knowledge about the body and health. I have not worked out or trained for many years and was skeptical about getting back up and doing it, but she has made it fun, enjoyable and perfectly challenging. Each workout is new and exciting, and I am feeling the positive effects after just 20 sessions! Things I found difficult to do are much easier, and people are commenting on how much healthier i appear and seem. I am looking forward to continuing my journey to health with Alina guiding each step of the way!

The best gym in LA! Whether you're a beginner or advanced gym rat, this gym has a product that…read moretruly can't be replicated. Their weightlifting classes are fun and EXTREMELY effective. Your booty will have a pump after just one class and the stronger you get physically, the stronger you will feel mentally as you move through life. Plus, the community is awesome!

My life changed after training with Angelina and Ray. I started working with them to prepare for my…read morewedding and wanted a natural, sustainable transformation. 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.

I rarely ever write reviews unless something really stands out, and that's Paul. 5 stars isn't…read moreenough for him. He's not only the most knowledgeable personal trainer I've met but his ability to tell you what your imbalances/weakness is second to none. He's the type of trainer who will design a plan which is correct for you based off his assessment, not just give you the same cookie cutter work out that you may find from other trainers. My story: I came in with hip pain/stiffness and some lower back stiffness. My goals were to reduce the stiffness/pain, increase my mobility, my flexibility, my strength and focus on long term health. I'd tried stretching, mobility exercises and working with other trainers but didn't have any significant improvement. Paul did an assessment on me, and without having to give any additional information he could tell where I was having issues. After working with Paul for a few short weeks, my back stiffness and hip pain are completely gone and my hip stiffness continues to improve each week. Because I no longer have those previous ailments now I can focus on athletic movements and building muscle. He constantly reassesses the progress I make and adjusts my workouts to ensure growth. It's the best investment I've made. If you're looking for someone intelligent, non judgmental, and excellent at their craft, I would recommend giving Paul a try.

Paul has been a godsend. He is very knowledgeable with functional training. Despite my set backs he…read morehas been patient with me and very encouraging! I've noticed some great progress in regaining my muscle strength in some areas more than others but definitely positive progress. I highly recommend Paul.

I've never trained out of a small gym so I was hesitant to come here at first…read more. But after training here for close to a year it's nearly a place I can call home. FLF (Fast Lean Fit) has all the best amenities a studio gym offers that most big gyms provide at nearly a fraction of their membership costs. Not only does FLF have weights, a dead lift station, and olympic style rings.. I use the dry sauna, and cold plunge bath every session.. Dan, the owner is also a cool dude who trains his clients personally. Would highly recommend to check out FLF if you're looking to train in the K town area

I found…read moreFast Lean Fit on yelp in hopes of finding a great trainer in Ktown / Central LA and couldn't be happier. I have gained 9 lbs of muscle in 5 months of training x2 times a week and am so happy with the progress! Definitely worth the investment.

When I first started coming, I didn't have much knowledge of weight lifting, and so was a tad nervous, but now I am almost 200 classes in, feeling stronger than ever. I have also participated in a few challenges & am now training for Hyrox (which Owner/Coach Paul offers) and genuinely have nothing but kind words and gratitude for the people and the experiences.

This place is pretty amazing. My first time. I called beforehand (because I get nervous about…read moretaking classes lol) just to confirm if this gym was beginners-friendly... when I got there the instructor introduced himself and was such a tremendous help as far as ensuring my form was correct. I think his name was David, I'm grateful I was made to feel so welcomed as a solo newbie. Good workout, I felt the pain the next day for sure- that just means it's working! I highly recommend. Consists of strength training and I believe Other days are cardio. The stations help, the workout feels like it goes by fast, and the music gets your energy up! You'll like it.

LAAC has changed a lot since my last review from 10 years ago. It continues to have the best pool…read morewith advanced filtration system that does not make me feel like a chlorine tablet after swimming. But it now caters to a younger crowd and has substantial co-working space. I've certain found more members using the facilities but also discovered quite a bit of new programmings like the Pilates classes, mahjong club, live jazz performances and movie nights. I was not really sure about the change at the beginning but I am now fully embracing the new LAAC. Many of the staff and members have been here for a long time and it is nice to be greeted by familiar faces when coming to the club. The restaurants are pretty decent. Love to top my salad with a nice piece of salmon after workout at the Famous Players or have a tasty glass of scotch while enjoying the live jazz performance at the Invention. The sports bar Duke's has great happy hours and fun monthly evening karaoke or chess club meetings. The only thing I complain about is the need for shock absorbance and insulation of the noise or moving the weight station. The northwest corner of the Famous Players near Olive Street shakes every time the weightlifters drop their weights, which is very annoying and distracting for the diners. Feel like the ceiling or floor is going to drop out. No joke. For now, I would sit as far away from the northwest corner as I possibly can. But hope the club would look into it. I have been trying to sign up for the monthly wine tasting but they are always full. Maybe consider having the event more frequently or scale up? Regardless, I am still exploring all the new offerings at the club and really pleased with the Pilates classes and the live music performances. Although I am apprehensive when I first see the co-working space and the influx of new members, I now appreciate the additional events and classes that come with the new members and hope the club continues to do well and do better as I am here to stay.

I recently stayed here for a conference, and everything screamed vintage but athletic club, too…read more The hotel room is VERY spacious, though it erred on the side of dark. As usual, water in the room costs money, and there are a few other products with hidden price tags in the room, too. Surprisingly, toothbrush and toothpaste was not provided. The water for showering also doesn't get too hot. In terms of the athletic space, the machines were very easy to access. There was never a wait even on weekend afternoons. The lap pool was my favorite part - clean and calm. There was some miscommunication between the lobby and the store, as one said there is no reservation system but there in fact was. But even when told all the lanes were fully reserved, more than half weren't in use. Parking is a bit of a hassle; for non-members it's definitely not worth it. At the time of visit, the parking machine wasn't working. There are also sperate elevators for parking vs the athletic club / hotel area which was a little confusing. The stair numbers also didn't coordinate the best with actual level.
