A great gym indeed. The reviews didn't lie. They have good working machines and everyone were super friendly.

Came in to Breakthru after having an absolutely horrible experience at LA Fitness.

I know, comparing the 2 is like comparing a Ferrari to bicycle, but Breakthru Fitness was really a GREAT gym, and I really thought about splurging and getting a membership after the week free trial.

The gym is located next to Trader Joe's on the 3rd floor of a complex. There is a huge 4 level parking lot attached to this complex, so parking wasn't a problem. In this part of South Pasadena, that is a HUGE deal.

Secondly, the staff at Breakthru were amazing. Not only were they super upbeat and friendly and ready to help us with any problems that we had, they did not once hassle us for being trial members or try to push us to join, even after the trial ended. Not a single phone call. For a 7-day trial, which is 3x longer than any other trial I've had at much cheaper gyms, that's a great deal.

The gym itself is very spacious, and you honestly get what you pay for. There are a bunch of personal training-specific machines and a lot of fun things to play with because of the roots of the gym and their dabbling in Crossfit.

Alongside the equipment, there are free towels provided, as well as bath towels and great showers in the locker rooms.

The only small caveat I would have to say is that their free weight section is a little lacking. Because of their target population(older), I totally understand why that is, but it would be nice if they had a few more selections in dumbbells and barbell weights.

Because of how spacious and empty the gym was though, even using their one set of weights was never an issue.

Love the place, and am seriously considering getting a membership :X

I am over the moon with how friendly and welcoming both the staff and the members are and with how great and varied the classes and instructors are. The equipment is awesome and my incredibly talented trainer Mathias is helping me overcome some injuries that had me doubting I'd ever be strong again. (There's also a Trader Joes next door which is such a fab extra!) Parking is also super easy. I'm truly grateful Breakthru exists!

This is my second time around, and I'm enjoying it more than ever. There's a calm Zen to the gym now, maybe because there are less people when I go, but I'm glad for it. I like being able to reserve a bike for my favorite spin teacher (Dez) a day in advance, but have until 8:20 to arrive. Before there was a lot of anxiety trying to get a bike and with Elouise going to school in the opposite direction of the gym, that made my anxiety high. No more of that and the other instructors like Phil and Ally, are pretty awesome as well. But, ultimately I rejoined for the Pilates package combined with Dez. I love all the women instructors I've tried so far and the ease I've had getting into a classic class. Way to go! I'm glad to be home.

Amazing Gym, I visited with a friend and I have never Been treated quite like this at any other Gym I have been to. The staff are so friendly and genuine and they take the time to not only learn the names of their members but also to speak with them. You never feel like you are a bother or that they are in a rush with you. Best Gym experience I have ever had hands down. Whoever runs this place is an amazing business person and truly understands what good business is all about. If I lived in LA I would be a member here.
