Love this gym. The locations are very convenient, Olympic has easy parking. Equipment is always clean. The other gym goers are really chill, polite, helpful but not pushy. The owner is a gentleman and a fine business owner. Really worth the price. Highly recommend to all. They have all the best equipment you could ever want !
I have worked out extensively at both the Pico and Olympic locations. The gym packs a lot of good equipment into the space. It has everything I needed. I was fortunate to train with a professional bodybuilder. We made significant gains while training at Bishoy. And, all of the members were serious about their fitness. I recommend if you want a good gym with flexible hours.
I wish I could give this place negative stars. If you are looking for a gym, please check other gyms and avoid this place. The front staff is extremely rude. Just simply swipping in you get hit with insults. Zero costumer service skills. There are many other good gyms in LA. You will easily find a better gym with the money you will pay for this gym. Double check with their horrible policy and get yourself a better choice with modern equipment, clean environment, communicative and friendly staffs and better policy.
That Hanna person is nasty and rude. She needs to learn how to speak to people. I was going to inquire about a membership but after seeing how she was talking to the staff. I was mortified. No thank you. Go to another location unless you want to be spoken badly to. She needs to be FIRED IMMEDIATELY!
Amazing gym. Incredibly clean. Every piece of equipment necessary for successful training and very responsive staff. Highly recommend if you’re traveling to LA and looking to maintain your training
Bishoy’s Gym is the real deal. Especially if you want to focus on your workout rather than socializing. It has all the equipment you would need and 24 hour access.
I believe a gym should be a positive, welcoming place to help me with my mental and physical goals. This place is quite the opposite. The owners are rude and unprofessional. Avoid this place.
A big thank you to Hana for providing such a wonderfully equipped chill place to workoutI’m so happy you’re here
This gym is by far one of the best gyms Ive ever been a member of. Theres almost no distractions like at the other big box gyms and Bishoys gym is a local gym. The gym has its own unique atmosphere of individuals that want to make gains in the most efficient manner possible. Bishoys is a gym that caters to people that want to see progress in their fitness journey.For these reasons, I recommend this gym without hesitation to anyone who is serious about body building and achieving above average fitness results.
My gym instructor is a highly recommended trainer. I have been with her for so long now and have gained significant strength in my arms, legs, and abs. She motivates me everyday to the fullest. If you want to achieve a physically fit body, just choose her!
I am very disappointed that now they are charging so much because of the COVID pandemic. I was going to go back but nobody is social distancing and they are not CLEANING. I am not going get the COVID!
I used to work out in this gym. Their equipment was very clean and very organized. I thanked the coach who helped me have a physically fit body. He teaches me the proper ways of working out.
Clean and well maintained, relaxed and respectful patrons. No frills experience that can be tough to find in LA, Bishoys killing it.
I would love to suggest this gym to all the people. This is the best place to get physically and mentally fit. They had a professional coach here. Very good for the first-timer.
The guy at the front desk has an unwelcoming and unpleasant attitude towards people with memberships and people attempting the day pass.I would give this gym 0 stars. Very unwelcoming. Very unappreciated. The monthly price is too high for that kind of gym. There are plenty of cheaper and better equipped places.
Both places have all machines needed. I have been a member for 4 months and never had any Issues. I love it.
Conveniently located, well kept, and equipped with a broad range of machines/weights. Great workout environment for intermediate to advanced lifters. Members are respectful and maintain a clean workout space. The owner does the great job maintaining quality and is a pleasure to do business with.
Simple and easy sign up process. No nonsense here. Just hard work.
I can see that I am getting fatter as I look at my latest pictures. So, I decided to go to this fitness center near our place. And I got a good service because they really helped me do what I could do to lose weight. I lost 2kls in just one week and it made me feel ready to lose more!
Great place to go after long hours of work. After 8:30pm is very dead. I get the whole gym to myself. Its more like a private gym.
This is the last real gym left in LA. The owner is a well known ex bodybuilder and also spiritual leader. Appreciate the positive and real energy and excellent equipment.
Gym owner Bishoy is strictly dedicated to providing the best and safest environment for his clients to thrive. Real standup guy who is passionate about fitness in the right ways.Equipment is top notch and gym has everything you could possibly need. I’ll be coming here for a long time.
Oh wow, I was looking for a gym to join after Covid, but reading the “you are not allowed in” after every negative feedback made me want to give this place a 1 star. Keep disrespecting potential and former clients and I am sure you won’t last long, especially now when so much depends on a good review and customer service.
If you’re looking for a place to finally get on your grind and reach your physique goals, this place is it. If you’re looking to workout in groups or in a “safe” place, stick to orange theory or planet fitness. This gym is for pumping iron and getting yolked, period.
Amazing gym. Has all the equipment you would ever need. Always clean and great atmosphere! 100% recommend!
Just called to ask about membership packages. Guy could not break down pricing and did get a word in edge wise for potential membership. Lacked professionalism in patiently elaborating their overall services, Show some more salesmanship, edits must be made to the website as well I was not able to get a clear idea of the membership fees.
*Not a member, posting review based on customer interactionKinda want to join if you could post pricing on your website or staff could notify callers that would be great. I understand policy, but its not traditional business practice to request a drivers license photo via text, especially prior to a committed sign-up.[Update after owner reply]I didnt think requesting information about pricing could get you banned from a business, but I guess it can. Interesting that giving someone 5 minutes of your time to create memberships is deemed a bad investment.Bullet dodged, rating lowered.
Excellent gym, a true weightlifters gym for the beginner and seasoned weightlifter. If I lived here I would definitely be a life long member!
Love this gym!! Has everything you need to get a great workout!🤩 Excellent communication if you ever have questions or need assistance.
I love this gem of a private gym! Great equipment and atmosphete. Thankyou so much Bishoy! 🙂
Bishoy is nothing but great. He has provided great information about his gym. He is up front with his communication and is kind and a great communicator. Ive called him 3-4 times he calls back within a hour or so. His gyms are tremendously well equipped. I in fact, love the fact Pico doesnt have AC. Helps me get a good sweat in and the equipment is solid and well maintained. He takes good care to make sure everything is working properly. Ive yet to see something broken. Always able to find parking, always able to get in use equipment. When the gym is open and busy, everyone is nice.
The gym is really well maintained and clean. I love the accessibility and the atomosphere.
This gym is well-maintained and the owner makes sure that you get the service that you pay for! This is a great way to get your grind going.
I just called them. The guy who picked up the phone didnt let me talk. He answered 1 question and hung up without taking a breath and while I was talking! Very rude. Left a bad impression.I hope this feedback helps the owner get more out of his investment by improving.[[ My response to owners reply ]]I didnt become a member after being treated so rudely.Thats how it works in this world when youre RUDE to a potential NEW CUSTOMER.😆 ...till further notice? 🤣Your poor members have to put up with you. An owner who is punitive when at fault. Instead of admitting it and apologizing, you reply the way you have showing the world how you are.Trying to bar someone whos not a member shows how you run your business.Thank G-d for your rudness, I didnt become one of your members🏝😎🏝
The equipment, people, owner and vibe bring out the best in every workout.
This gym has always been like a second home for some of us. The clients and the owner make it a great environment to disconnect from work and other life duties and just enjoy getting a good workout done.
Please keep the gym open ! Best way to stay healthy is to exercise. Also, this gym never has a big crowd, so if you want to stay in groups of 5 or less, its perfect for that. No reason why small, private gyms should have to close during this time.
This gym has a clean place all the equipment was all sanitized and the staff and customers wear a mask. It is really a safe place to workout.
Ummm I was just reading the reviews and I’m not kidding it makes me want to sign up. The owner is a savage and doesn’t give a f. People shouldn’t be so picky or whiny during a pandemic where we’ll maintained OPENED gym are hard to come by. And it’s 24 hours!!! Even more rare, the 24 hour fitness with old machines and homeless people inside are around the corner.
Super sketchy. Called for a day pass and asked for me to pay over Venmo over the phone. Before I even show up.
What an amazing and fun class. I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a diverse, entertaining and challenging routine. I felt very challenged, yet motivated and pumped. I was on a natural high after completing the class.
My brother looked for a gym that has complete types of equipment and a trainer that he needed. I suggested to him this gym and he was so thankful that it caters to all he wants.
I love training here! Always very clean, great equipment for a natural powerlifter like myself and the owner (Bishoy) is very accommodating to members. Small businesses like this should stay open during times of crisis because it is a way to relieve stress (mental health is still health). As long as all smaller gyms are super clean, have cleaner available for self use and traffic is monitored then risk is low.
Nice experience variety of equipment
I absolutely love this gym it has everything I need, Its a great environment and from my personal experience I love everything. Id like to give a Shout out to Bishoy, Thanks.
I think today was my last day at this club. Temp is too hot every time. Too bad cause Ius convenient working in San-tee. I loved the new equipment too. Cool down and I might come back.
They will lose your contract cancellation, claim you never sent it, and then attempt to make you pay additional payments. If youre like most people who dont photocopy everything they place in the mail and dont have a copy of your cancellation months later, theyll argue you cant prove you cancelled anything. The owner appears to make a habit out of responding to negative reviews on this platform - if he does so here and claims I never cancelled, yes I most certainly did.Edit: As predicted, the owner responded and denied everything. Ive got the email and text records, he simply refuses to accept them. The owner of this gym is lying. It would be a shame if covid19 put them out of business so a legit gym could take its place.
Such a good gym! the vibe was perfect and i loved the 24 hour access. Hanna is a great energy in the gym and great person to chat to about goals! i am totally coming back
Just called and the guy wouldn’t let me ask any questions...very strange and seemed like a scam
Just called and the guy wouldn’t let me ask any questions...very strange and seemed like a scam To me as well.
Great old school gym. Never crowded, people that are there are focused so its a positive environment
Best gym with best trainers ! I love it and Im addicted !!! I highly recommend trying out a class if u are ready for a challenge.
Its everything you would expect out of your neighborhood gym as its a bit on the smaller size but has quite a bit of equipment. The place is clean BUT the biggest issue is with the owner of the space. He legit yells at his customers over the smallest things to the point where its extremely uncomfortable to be there. This happened MULTIPLE times during my membership and ended up cancelling my membership because it was that bad. Hes very friendly during sign up but is quite rude otherwise. Id look elsewhere if I was looking for a gym in the Rancho Park area.
Great, personable gym owner whos emotionally invested in his business and genuinely loves his job. Equipment is excellent and clean. Gym is accessible 24 hours a day. Rarely crowded and most importantly everyone working out with you is nice and friendly
Great small gym to workout! You can go whenever you want if you join, which takes about 5 min. Really practical with equipment thats pretty much new. Theres a small parking nearby and if you come at the right time, you get to see Bishoy in person!Keep pumping, its lightweight!!
This is an awesome gym! Not only are they awesome, but they are not busy at all most days! Great workout experience!!
Arrogant owner who wants a copy of my ID first, before he will answer any questions about the gym. I’m surprised he didn’t want my social security, credit card info, and a background check. What a joke
Fun and not over big of a gym, it’s open 24 hrs which is great. The staff are all so helpful and it’s got a great vibe for working out.
Great gym. Sorry that I have to move and cant come here anymore.
Easy access all day all night. If you are beginners or a pro and want all equipments in one place not walking far from each other (sometimes i walked 3 floors to get different equipments). I am training for marathon here, the treadmills are really cool, there are down slopes to -8 i think. Not crowded and not too hot or too cold. I got free stuffs from mng many times, really nice local gym. Btw, bring your own water! But there is liquor store next door too.
Best gym ever
Besf Bodybuilding oriented Gyms in the local area. Nice new quality equipment updated regularly.
Ive been a member here for about 2 weeks now. This is the best gym that Ive been to in LA. Small but they have more than most large chain gyms. Staff if very friendly and will learn to know you by name. Their equipment focuses on muscle building which is perfect for me. The cardio equipment from Nordictrack is actually making me enjoy cardio while watching Netflix. Ive tried some of the big gyms and after paying the same price that I pay here, the only thing I flelt was frustrated because of the how crowded places like LA fitness are. There, no one re-rackes their weights or cares that theres 7 people waiting to use the bench that some guy is on his phone texting on. If youre looking for a friendly environment to workout where you wont have to wait in line for your equipment, where you get treated like an actual member and not just another face.... Look no further because bishoys gym is it.
Couldnt be more happy and satisfied at Bishoys Gym. I have worked out at LA Fitness, 24hour, etc. and none come even close to the experience Ive had at Bishoys. You walk in, are instantly greeted with a warm hello from Bishoy himself, and get to working out on world-class, clean, and brand new machines, weights, and more. The gym rarely gets crowded but if it ever does, all the members Ive met are super nice and considerate and its easy to switch between sets. The comfortable, welcoming environment at Bishoys Gym is unparalleled--I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for the absolute best gym around.
Its hard to say anything that hasnt already been said about Bishoys Gym... So Ill tell my story and why I joined:I view finding a gym the same way you would when youre trying to find a new barber or hairstylist... you know when you find a good one, youre going to stick with it and be with them for sometime so you better vet them well.Im a 42 year old dad, with a dad bod, of course like many men I worked out plenty in my teens and 20s, then life and poor workout habits and injuries and fatherhood got in the way. I took years off and am now ready to get back into some good lifting but with the wisdom of my years and not the reckless abandon of being young and thinking my body is invincible, LOL.I just moved to LA and was looking for a gym, of course checked out the standards like LA Fitness and 24 Hour Fitness and was disgusted by their sales tactics and generally un-knowledgable staff members. Yes, those places were closer to me and more convenient, but I just couldnt bring myself to make a long term commitment to them because of their business model. Was driving past Bishoys on Pico and thought, hmm, maybe that place has potentialI called and made an appt with Bishoy to check the place out and wow, what a treasure. Yes, its small, but if you want a good solid place to work out with CLEAN, and TOP OF THE LINE equipment... this is your place. Not only that, but to reiterate what others have said, Bishoy is a great guy who takes care of his members and takes pride in his gym.Im really, really happy that I found a great place to workout and at the same time I get to support a business who is really doing it right.Kudos to Bishoy and doing business right in this day and age!
Great no nonsense place to exercise.
Nice gym, good ownership.
Small and quite for late night training
