LA Fitness Bronx - Eastchester Rd.

I checked out this gym in July 2023 with the 3 day guest past in my quest for my next gym. Well this gym was pretty big and I like that there was designated area with a lot of space for parking. I met Gabriel who asked me if I would like a tour and the run down of prices. It was great that I didnt have to ask for a tour like I did in other gyms. If you need to Freeze your membership it is $10 a month which I didnt like because why would you pay $10 to do nothing. On to the gym. I checked out the sauna warm sauna and really helped to relax my muscles after some intense workouts.The place looked clean and also lots of machines for just about any part of your body. Even some workout machines that I haven't seen anywhere else. I liked the locker room because it had a different more elegant feel to it than other gyms I have gone to. The bathroom was nice and clean for the most part with people cleaning each time I was there. They had cleaning supplies for the equipment but looks like they are transistioning from a diapenser and paper towel to a system similar to blink where its an all in one pull out the moist paper, clean and throw away system. Hopefully thats better because I did see a warning on the other cleaning stuff to not let it touch the skin. Also they will follow up with you to see if you are interested so be prepared for phone calls. I also took two classes which was included in the guest past. I took kickboxing and that was ok. I enjoyed the instructors energy. I just felt at times he was doing his own thing and a lot of us couldnt keep up. He also was speaking in another language quite a few times and I couldn't catch the jokes so felt a little out of place. I would rate it a 5 out of 10. The music was pretty good and kept you going. The other class I took was with Milly I believe. This was a bootcamp class. I cant lie I went in not knowing what to expect and a little intimidated by the name. She had a lot of energy and did the moves with us. The music was fun and current and her energy kept me on track. There were times I had to stop because my knee was hurting so I would live to see modified versions of some of the moves although I did create my own . I love that she pushed you to keep up and encouraged you. I would definitely recommend her class. I came around 4pm the first day and it was not too full. The other days I came in the morning. I was surprised how full the gym was in the morning on a Friday. All in all this is a good gym only thing missing for me was the pool/jacuzzi doesnt work yet even though that is not huge for me the mentioned August so that sucks for people that are paying for that. I did not see a basketball court for people that are into that. I know a lot of other L.A fitness have it and there is no hydromassage which I love to utilize after a workout. The Sauna helps but not the same feeling.

When I started my fitness journey, I must say I did not know where to begin. I knew I wanted to gain a more muscular physique just didn’t know how besides looking at YouTube videos but also knowing it’s not the same as having a personal trainer. Eager to get started, I was recommended a specific trainer by the name of “Pete” by one of the employees at the front because I was VERY specific on what kind of trainer I preferred and knew what type of motivation I needed - Pete, not only took the time to ask questions but understood the goals I’ve had but also created new goals. He also helped with nutrition and suggestions on best foods to consume while trying to achieve the goals. I would recommend Pete for anyone as a personal trainer. Highly recommended!

No way! JUST DON'T DO IT! LA Fitness on Eastchester Road is real bad! Equipment is mostly broken, it smells AWFUL inside, way too overcrowded too many free passes, all the cable attachments are stolen, mens restrooms are FILTHY, They drench the pool with too much chlorine. No, no, no... JUST NOT WORTH YOUR MONEY OR TIME.

I want to give Pete a huge shout out for being the best trainer ever. In the past, I’ve always had a hard time staying consistent in the gym. Ever since I signed up to be trained by Pete, even the on days where I fall off, he’s there sending a text asking if everything’s okay and when I’ll be back to the gym. Without him genuinely caring about my fitness goals, I would’ve quit just like all the other times I tried to be consistent in the gym, regardless if I’m loosing out on money. It’s been 7 months now and Pete has truly made a difference in the way I look and feel, I couldn’t have done it without him!

Isaac was an amazing help, and great sales manager. He gave us a tour of all amenities in the facility. As soon as the tour was done he made sure to inform us with all information about the facility. I am excited to say me and my family are joining la fitness. Thank you Isaac for your amazing help

The only positive about this gym is the great amount of parking. I normally train at 5am. I'd expect to come into a gym that has been cleaned and reorganized. I'm not sure if there is a maintenance protocol in place for the equipment, but that certainly needs to be considered.

Pete has been a breath of fresh air. He’s an amazing personal trainer that makes you sweat and also keeps your needs in mind. As a person who had a lot of anxiety about joining and being in a gym, Pete has made me feel comfortable every step of the way. He’s relatable, friendly, and most importantly, efficient!

This gym has everything u need but gets very crowded with heavy foot traffic, and therefore can get REALLY smelly. Been to other branches which were so much more well kept and cleaner. Please put more work into cleaning and maintenance...

I have been working with Pete for a few months now and he is definitely the trainer guru!! If you want to get fit and ding personal growth week by week he is definitely your guy. He has patience and will push you to reach your goals while giving great nutrition advice. 10/10 Highly recommend!

Isaac was wonderful and super helpful. He gave a tour of the facility and made sure we were well informed with la fitness and the amenities included with a membership. We signed up as soon as we concluded our tour. We are so excited to begin our fitness journey thank you Isaac.
