All the weights weigh as much as they say, which is important.

I usually go Tuesday nights for Zumba class. The guy at the front desk never got off his phone to acknowledge me. I've been there several times and he has done the samething. Also, the water in the bathroom is freezing cold to wash your hands. I don't know how many germs that's going to kill. And it's always really hot upstairs.

I have been coming here the past 4 years of me living in South Side. A little overwhelming but it gets the job done. I love using the sauna after my workouts though. They have a decent amount of cardio equipment where you usually are not waiting to get on one.

Elijah the general manager was great! Provided my husband and I with great customer service while we were visiting. Gym is great and clean. Perfect for our workouts during our stay for our bodybuilding competition

Big sign outside of building literally falling down and has been for months. Exactly 50% of all running/biking equipment is missing cup holders and has been for months. Half of the hand sanitizer dispensers are ripped off the wall or gone. Half of the TVs on the running/biking machines do not even turn on let alone work. Do not enforce any rules when people leave their entire bags and jackets all over the main gym floor as signs literally right above them say not to. One of worst Pittsburgh LA fitness in my experience due to the problems above. Not personal but honest review.

Very welcoming and they offer a vast variety of programs and promotions. They don't have a lot of rules and let you work out. Always a clean atmosphere. Staff is always great respectful and courteous. I recommend 150% especially for family. Full range of just about any thing you can think of. When stuff breakdowns they fix it in a timely manor. Your search for a great gym and fitness and wellness center has stopped. No need to waste your time when you could be shedding pounds...

Great environment. The staff treats you like family. Andrew in memberships even waves and says hi he sees me out in town. The only thing that feels "large corporation" about this gym is that everything is so clean. My only complaint is that there isn't a kids club at this location. If they added that, it would be perfect!

Super fun gym to work out at. The classes are fun and challenging and there are so many great people who work out there. All the staff is awesome and they'll say hi when you get there and bye when you leave. Andrew in memberships sometimes will give out free shirts and stuff if you let them give your friends free gym time. Oh, and you can sign up for a free personal training session with Ann. She's so awesome and helpful. Love my gym!

I was given a free trial by one of their marketing staff at the regatta. I went to look at the gym and work out with no intention on seriously joining. Their senior membership counselor Andrew gave me a tour but didn't pressure me into joining the gym that day. I should have though. Everyone is super nice and motivating and it's a really amazing environment. Can't wait to get into shape.

Great gym. Good equipment. Good staff. Andrew the membership man goes out of his way to provide excellent customer service and will even say hi to you on the street. 10/10

I love this gym! Having lived all over the country, I have seen good gyms and bad gyms. LA Fitness southside puts all competition to shame. The entire building sparkles with cleanliness. This impressed me, especially considering their busy city location. If a clean environment isn't enough, then you'll just have to meet the staff. Everyone there is super friendly and helpful. When you're signing up, Andrew will take you on a full tour of the gym. Then he talks you through different membership options. He is patient and doesn't try to push you into spending more than your budget allows. Oh, and as part of your membership options they can validate parking so no more parking tickets. Members here aren't creepy either so as a girl into weightlifting I was extremely relieved.

Great gym! Reasonably priced and perfect location, staff is friendly and extremely helpful.

Decent place with a lot of free weights and machine options. Manager is super helpful, personable, and easy going. Would recommend.

Had a great experience there. The operations manager, Megan was very informative and helpful. She personally showed me around the club and helped me find everything I needed.

This gym is great, not the best staff but it has a lot of equipment and machines. I strongly recommend to not go around 4-7 PM because is really crowded.

Great gym. Very clean.
Shady business practices ruin it.

I used to belong to this gym, probably in 2013/2014. Very pricey. When I wanted to cancel they told me I could only do it from 9-5 M-F when a manager was there. Like most people, I also work those hours. So I had to pay for months and months until I could finally get my butt down there during these hours.

The equipment is nice. The place is pretty clean. The location lends itself to being a gym that is constantly packed. I find that rather annoying, but I'm sure it's great for business. Just makes it harder to get the equipment that you want when you want it.

Edit: It appears from more recent reviews that this LA Fitness still will not let you cancel your membership without jumping through all of the hoops. Please don't sign up for this place.

I have been a member for over three years at this gym. I have been to a vast majority of gyms all over the country and the Pittsburgh area, and the Southside gym is still one of my favorites. The equipment and workout areas are always aestechically pleasing. Obviously during "peak times" the gym is quite packed and hard to maintain, however; the staff tries their best to keep up with the volume of people (including management). Whether it's a newer or more seasoned employee, I'm always greeted when I walk in and leave the gym.
I would love it if this gym had the capability to expand and get a pool, courts, etc. My friends and I have at a few times worked out at this location and gone to another to do racquetball, swimming, etc.
This gym demographically has a diverse crowd who is here that lifts and attends the fitness classes (which I'm a huge fan of).

I really like this gym. The equipment and classes are great. I recently joined the yoga classes and really enjoy it! The staff is very friendly. Great location.

I did my first day a personal training at the Southside LA Fitness today and I had a great experience. My trainer was Kevin, he was flexible, understanding, and he worked with me and my goals. He listened when I told him what was too easy and what felt great. It's nice to have somebody who actually cares and works with you and your specific goals. It's not all generalized. The pricing was fair and the Trainers hours seem to be very flexible. I like doing two points instead of one because I like to spend time with my trainer longer than 25 minutes. It's so enjoyable that I'd rather spend as much time as I can and get all that I can out of it, which I was able to. Definitely would recommend. The personal trainer director, Brandon, is who got me into this and helped me get all set up. He explained it all very well and I'm very comfortable and I feel like I know what I'm doing and where I'm going. He's very conscious about my goals and really works with me and he actually spends a lot of time with me. I never feel rushed or unimportant. Definitely a great gym.

I belong to a few gyms in Pittsburgh but spend most of my time at this one due to the great equipment, cleanliness and friendly staff. The front desk lady, I think her name is Mia, always greets me and makes me feel welcome. Joey, the GM, has been helpful in assisting with my fitness related questions and inquiries about trying one of their personal trainers. Also, their late hours during the week help accommodate my busy schedule. I would definitely recommend that If you are looking for a place to workout, make this place a priority to try out.

A caring and dedicated staff. Tons of weights and machines. Clean facilities. Trainers who know what they are talking about. Members who treat each other like family. This gym has it all. The GM, I think his name is Joey, is also really awesome. Veru welcoming and always willing to engage in conversation and listen to concerns. Highly recommend this club, and this location specifically.

LA Fitness just stole my money yet again...they give you a big lie when you start then trick you at the end of your membership and say you never canceled...they do zero customer service...LA Fitness sucks and they are THIEVES!! Don't go to #lafitness Southside LA fitness is dirty and they are money hungry.

October 24, 2017 17:38

Scam. Plenty of other gyms to join. This one won't let you cancel your membership over the phone regardless if you move or change locations.

FIND ANOTHER GYM. THEY WILL TRY AND CHARGE YOUR ACCOUNT RIPOFF

October 24, 2017 17:38

So I signed up online for 7 day free pass. And they kept calling me to come over and get it. So I went there. Instead of 7 day free pass they signed me up for full membership and 2 months billing. When I found out I went to there to cancel it. They did. But they said I had to cancel it within 3 days . While I came to to the gym 5 days aftet signing up. Very disappointing with this place. There are definitely much better and cheaper gyms in Pittsburgh area. DO NOT EVEN GO there. They are a bunch of liars just want your money for crowded and smelly gym

Hotel California. You can check out any time you like, but you can't ever leave (your contract).

October 24, 2017 17:38

Oh South side LA Fitness...The front desk girl (blonde shoulder length hair), we'll call her "Felicia F**ks it up" is incompetent. Dear Felicia F**ks It up, get off the f***ing phone, stop wasting people's time, and check people in. You can wait to gossip about the rest of the staff and how much you hate your job after you check us in. Or perhaps learn to do both at the same time. It's a BASIC task that can't be accomplished by a less than BASIC staff member. I could have done an ab workout in the time from when I arrived to when I got checked in. Do better! Or LA Fitness, bring back the competent Brunette girl. Sincerely, the rest of the world.
