Royal Personal Training - Los Angeles, California

I’ve been going to RPT for a few months and it’s been one of the best investments I’ve made for myself lately. I always carve out time to work out with my wonderful trainer Sophie despite my busy work schedule and the flexibility with scheduling makes it very convenient given my traveling. The 1:1 relationship you are able to build with your trainer is special given the accountability and encouragement they provide and it’s kept me excited about my exercise and health journey. I see results when training here and look forward to seeing even more while I continue to train here!

I've been going to RPT for several weeks now and I'm so happy with my results. I was paired with an awesome trainer who has helped me see results and gain confidence in and out of the gym. The community is friendly and has a wide variety of types of clients/trainers.

The trainers are all so talented! My trainer Hunter is super helpful and attentive. He knows how to help you reach your limit so you can improve fast. The staff are all friendly and I love the facility so much. 10/10

My new favorite gym!! Started training here with Ave about a month ago and I absolutely love his style and knowledge. The gym is always super clean, friendly, and everyone is very attentive.

*UPDATED to include response to owner’s response*

No one checked in with me throughout the duration of my package, unless you count asking me how’s it going in passing in front of the trainer. Nor were any sessions comped….

I myself reached out to the person who signed me up expressing my disdain to which I was not allowed to switch to a different trainer but instead told that they’d have a talk with the trainer. Due to such rules, treatment and waste of invested time and funds, I am not interested in giving this gym another try.

HONEST REVIEW:

GYM:
The gym is pristine and great. Which accounts for one of the two stars.

TRAINER:
The other star is for the trainer's "personality". The trainer is awesome and sweetheart. Unfortunately you don't get to pick your trainer, they match you based on your preferences of training style and with no trainer bios you really don't know or have a say coming in. The trainer I had was green and it was evident in my three months of continuous weekly training and ZERO progress.

The trainer often relied on advice from others throughout our session. Between that and the inattentiveness (on the phone or chatting to other trainers while I perform my reps) I can tell I could've had better results and a better experience if training with someone else. Lastly, the trainer did not honor my request to do more compound workouts and hiit/ conditioning workouts. Instead we mostly did isolated workouts (ie single leg kickbacks) although I continually emphasized my goals. It was only towards the end of the package around renewal time where the intensity was finally kicked up a notch. Verbatim I was told once I renew we'll increase the intensity and I'll see results. The first phase was "easing into it" due to experience with some other clients' that didn’t go well and he didn't want to put too much on me as a female. It was crazy to hear as a trainer who should know everyone is not the same and be able to gauge how much one can handle.

To further put things into perspective, I've seen more results and body fat loss in just six weeks working out on my own than I did paying thousands of dollars for "professional training". Nothing changed with my diet or lifestyle and the only difference being my workout style/ trainer. It's unfortunate because I joined RPT for the professional expertise.

CULTURE/ Good to know:
The woman sales rep is very nice. The male sales rep who signed me up (and no longer with the company) not so much. The other trainers varied some friendly, a couple would close the door in my face as I'd enter behind them...

The gym itself is very top notch and pristine and love that they have a physical therapy facility attached to it.

Parking is metered or you can valet for a fee cash only. In the neighborhood you can find free parking as well.

So much more can be said on the actual training experience but I will leave it at that.

I absolutely LOOVE Mitchell! He’s worth every penny. He plays no games if you want to take your workout journey seriously and see results this is your trainer! He’s professional and doesn’t waste any time. He pushes your mind and body but also understands your limits and tests them. He’s always watching and paying attention to his clients which i noticed right away while comparing him to my old trainers. You want someone like Mitchell that isn’t going to chit chat more than train on your dime and someone who isn’t going to be walking around talking to other trainers while you’re working out. He watches your posture and corrects you. This man is truly talented and focused on his work!

Love my trainers, very attentive and knowledgable. Push me to my limit without compromising my form or safety. Also, Camille is great, she arranged everything for me and always there to answer questions, concerns. ?

Royal has been a second home for me. I’ve been working in fitness all my life and never been part of a community like this one. As a client and now a trainer as well, I can honestly say this is a one of a kind experience at RPT!
