I Work the front desk here, so clearly this review is not without bias. That said I have enjoyed my experience here thoroughly, with daily exposure to a very diverse and talented clientele, speaking both of the clients and trainers.
I have asked trainers here (who make the rounds throughout La's Gyms, big and small,) why they appreciate this space. The overlapping response has been 1. A positive human touch, 2. an uncommonly clean facility, 3. A large variety of equipment with which to design different training modalities. Not to mention a deep well of experienced trainers of all shapes colors and sizes, included among them trainers with titles in the world of competitive bodybuilding, and more recently a champion of the World's Strongest Man competition.
From my seat at the desk, I've found it to be a warm and inviting environment full of people dedicated to the pursuit of fitness. Its for everyone, of all ages (truly) with varying goals in health and fitness. I highly recommend this hidden gem on North La Brea to anyone who is entering, returning to, or already seriously engaged in fitness. There's a lot of quality talent and know-how packed into this gym, that is a mistake to overlook.
Plus you get to meet me when you come visit.
Win win.

Tony is the best trainer on the planet.....possibly the entire solar system. If you're looking for motivation and inspiration to supplement Tony's diet of challenging training, he creates custom programs based on your goals and compels you to achieve them. He has an artist's perception of sculpting you to a better body and mind.

Very impressed with this location. I came here because it is my local gym however I originally visit the downtown location. The size of this gym and arrangement was really impressive as it is clean, in order, and looks like they make the most of the space they have.
I have come here a few times now and the staff is actually pretty friendly and helpful. They have parking nearby and validate which is a huge plus. It can get crowded and machines can be steadily busy but as many of you know "where there is a will there is a way" . This location has plenty of stuff for sale and includes smoothies which is great for post gym.
I would definitely recommend this location and would also recommend coming with plenty of time to work out as I said previously it can get pretty busy.

I highly recommend Max Rosenfeld as a personal trainer. He's super knowledgable, dependable and focused on results. I have quite a few sports related injuries and I was always cautious to push myself at the gym before Max. Training with Max, he's taught me proper form and discipline. Now, I'm training hard and effectively despite my past injuries and I'm stronger than ever.

I've worked out with Tony at Ultra Body for three days a week every week for the last two and a half years. He and his gym were recommended to my by a nutritionist that used to share clients with him. I was having shoulder and wrist problems when weightlifting and knew I was making mistakes. When I started training with Tony he corrected my bad form and the problems went away within a few months. I've been training with him ever since. Not only is Tony a perfectly professional and knowledgeable trainer, but he also happens to be a great guy. The gym is always clean and the machines and benches are always in excellent condition. I honestly couldn't recommend the gym and Tony more enthusiastically.

This private gym is centrally located - BUT the owner of Ultra Body Fitness (Tony) is an AWFUL business man who has exhibited gross disrespect to women. On 3 separate occasions, Tony was in SCREAMING matches with 3 different women - a neighbor, a trainer, & myself (a client). He has no skills to talk reasonably to folks who may have a disagreement with. His solution - yell at anyone he can not find any common ground with, then if that doesn't work he calls LAPD. Sad man who has no smart business ethics--except that he has a gym which may be easily accessible to folks living in Hollywood. If you are looking for a private gym -- then be sure to choose a gym without the attitude & disrespect. All the trainers there are awesome--but inquire from them individually if they train elsewhere. The disagreement I had: I asked Tony on 2 separate occasions to please shut the doors while I do cardio to avoid the car/truck fumes from wafting inside----his response to me on my 2nd request--'If you don't like it--then get the f**ck out." Oh yeah---that was my last day working out there...
