One can get a decent workout here when its not packed with customers and when the fitness trainers aren't hogging the equipment which seems WAY too often. its become more like "their gym", versus the customers.
Like most "Big Box" gyms the management is inadequate, and its motivations are all about overselling memberships, and personal fitness training sessions while under serving the existing paying customers. The sales staff are like tenacious starving vultures baiting anyone who walks by there desk to purchase 144 personal training sessions up front.
Moreover, the fitness training staff are un-empathetic to peoples special needs. Most are inexperienced and poorly educated. They SHOULD NOT be prescribing fitness programs to the older population which encompasses 70% of this gyms population. I shutter every time I see a trainer throwing weights at training clients that have not been properly assessed. many with postural dysfunction. I believe if your not doing a accurate assessment to include arthokinetic function and muscle length tension relationships, then your are guessing and SHOULD NOT BE CHARGING the customer. Shame on LA Fitness for hiring such ineptitude! Although there are some amazing Gyms and highly quality trainers in the east valley, you certainly won't find them here.
