Reviews of Elemental Fitness Lab (Gym)

Gibran Ramos

Not your average gym. The owner and his hand selected trainers actually care about you, as a person, improving your physical fitness and how this impacts your overall well-being. No up-selling you some protein powder you don't need and you don't feel like it's a testosterone filled sweat house. The trainers take each person through a comprehensive evaluation of how your everyday movements are either hindering you or contributing to your health. Then when you come back for workouts, they're easily accessible to help you refine your technique even more. It's a breath of fresh air and a nice alternative to "the gym."

I've never been serious about fitness prior to going to Elemental Fitness Lab. Despite the usual worries heading into my first session, I felt comfortable in the space right from the start. Blaine has been awesome: just the right balance between encouraging when I need it but also being critical about form and technique when it is for my safety. My personal goal was just simply to be healthier, but a friend asked me if I had been working out so obviously there are other benefits as well!

I am so glad I found Elemental fitness. I was refered to elemental from my chiropractor after years of suffering from back pain. Chris has a wealth of knowledge about how the body works and moves which has helped correct some of the problematic ways I use my body. After a year of training and feeling much stronger and healthier, I tried going back to LA Fitness. Within two months, I came back to Elemental because of how much better of a gym it is and I am very glad I did.

If you are looking for top notch training to improve performance, prevent injury, decrease pain, or simply improve quality of life, I highly recommend these guys! They have knowledge above and beyond the average personal trainer and will work with you on movement patterns specific to your body and your needs.

There is no finer place to strength train...period. I have trained in many establishments over the years. What the trainers at EFL do that separates them from the herd is approach the body whole, with a focus on YOUR unique needs, not somebody else's. It goes much further...the methodology employed for strength training is drawn from traditional approaches that existed long before the 'rise of the machines' in gyms. If you crave an environment that addresses YOUR unique needs, look no further. If you wish to be trained by people who actually have backgrounds in movement quality and body composition--who know what they are doing and why they are doing it--you've found a match. You won't leave a session feeling exhausted, depleted or fatigued--the way most gyms often leave you feeling. I have lost 135 pounds since beginning in 2013 and I couldn't be happier.

I was a member here until I moved too far away to continue. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t miss it and miss the excellent training from Gabe. Update: Chris, the owner, reached out to me following my review above and let me know they do “distance training” too...I’m going in Friday for an assessment (because I happen to be in town but it’s not necessary) and get back at it. Thanks Chris!!

This place is a life saver. If you have any sort of back problem this is where you need to start. Chris went out of his way to make us feel welcome and understood. His program to teach the proper techniques to move, lift, sit, stand, etc will make your life with back pain a thing of the past. Thank you Chris!
