LA Fitness at 5959 Hamilton Road, Columbus, Ohio.

Great facility/ Kind Staff
Would NOT recommend the personal training sessions (1 session = 25min = $55-65). Not worth the value; especially if you're paying $30 a MONTH for full access throughout the gym during operating hours. More insight into the value: during my trial session, I witnessed a client and her mother share a session (25min), their Personal Trainer (PT) stood idly by and watched his/her clients perform workouts, occasionally adjusting their posture but mostly chatted about social/ personal life. My PT, however, though a very friendly guy, was more focused on selling me on signing up for PT sessions - I realized this more when he asked me if I was serious about my goals during the conversation. Though I understand he's just "doing his job" that tactic may not go over well with someone who has never been consistent working out. For me, it didn't phase me - for someone else, they may feel they have to dish out loads of money to reach their goals. I met my goals and maintained them before signing up ( I just really appreciated their gym included a sauna - terrible reason for joining a gym). One final note, although no contract is involved - it's definitely a hassle cancelling. I was told I could not cancel via phone or online - I must come in to speak with the Operations Manager (OM). The Operations Manager is available Monday - Friday/ 9 AM - 5 PM . When I arrived, I was then told he [OM] was busy watching ____ videos. He [front-desk attendant] offered an option to cancel via sending an email (which would take 2-3 business days). I proceeded to tell the front-desk attendant to alert the manager, especially considering I left my job early to cancel this membership. The OM finally came over and quickly handled the cancellation. Again, great facility - but I do not recommend the PT sessions.
