Overall
BEWARE!!

I used to work in the health club business a couple of years ago, and have a good grasp of what's offered out there...



LA Fitness Centers are generally pretty sleek, clean polished....but....



BEWARE of some of the sales tactics they use....



I wanted to try a brief complementary period of no more than a week, just to see if the club is "right" for my needs etc..



When the manager had me take a seat with a sales person, the enviornment almost just turned into that feeling you get when you shop around for a car...they ask way too many questions, and sideskirt your simple request to just want to try the club for a week, I personally think they ask too many questions as to why you want to join the club, your goals etc..a lot of "high pressure" vibes. I opted to just leave at that point, after 20 minutes of simply asking for a trial, they kept on, talking about midlle of the month membership deals if I sign now, blah, blah...they always run "specials" so don't be pressured to agree to anything....just walk away, there are other health club options.



I googled a general search and there are a lot of complaints out there, especially for incorrect billing, or if you wish to cancel your membership...all of the stall tactics they use to keep you.



JUST BEWARE!
