Editorial Review for The Sports Club/LA – by Richard Tate
The Scene
Multiple floors of state-of-the-art equipment, top-notch trainers, spa services, a central location and opportunities to socialize at club-sponsored mixers--it's no wonder this massive sports and fitness facility is so popular with downtown professionals. The club is also the designated facility for guests of the adjacent Four Seasons Hotel. Whether you're socializing or exercising, working out here can be serious business.
The Workout
If you're looking for options, becoming a member is worth considering. The club features an enormous weight-training gym, a "fit lab" offering health assessments, and a flexibility/balance center for improving mobility and strength. Machines in the cardiovascular center feature individual TVs and access to the club's junior Olympic swimming pool, steam room, sauna and group exercise classes are part of the membership package. If games are your thing, sharpen your skills or join in league play on the full-court gym for basketball and volleyball.

There's all of the equipment that you could ask for at this downtown facility. You like to swim..there's a pool. You like to play basketball....there's a court. How about strength training, running, spin...the list goes on. They have it all. There's also a variety of classes too. The staff is always courteous. Hey, after your workout you can grab something to eat or even have a drink at the bar. Oh yeah...a haircut is possible and so is a massage. There's a salon and a spa on premises.
Pros: downtown location, a lot of equipment, good staff, restaurant on premises
Cons: you have to pay to park

After spending years at gyms with a HUGE shortage of ellipticals and treadmills....and even the machines available are broken or noisy.....i found my gym! Yippee!!!! I have no issue with spending twice or three times as much as other gyms when i can see where my money is going. There is a new third floor that just opened and has all new equipment and the whole gym is air conditioned....nice! All the cardio machines have their own individual television so a 45 minute cardio session just flies by. The classes have so far been absolutely excellent and are offered in tremendous abundance. i can't wait to try some pilates here! The dieticians and personal trainers look well educated and in great shape. As someone who likes to work out maybe four or five times a week i feel motivated by the lithe, healthy appearing crowd this gym seems to attract. It's a pleasant change from the contagious looking steroid freaks smoking cigarrettes outside many other places i've had memberships. I am handing out free passes to everyone i know!
Pros: super clean, excellent classes, sparkling new equipment, nice restaurant with great tasting and healthy food
Cons: parking, expensive
