Fast Lean Fit

FLF is an amazing gym! It’s a smaller more personal gym that emphasizes attention and personal connections to the clients. I’ve been training with Stretch for about 3 months and it’s been a great experience with a lot of diverse exercises. Exactly what I was looking for!

I cannot sing the praises of FLF enough. Everything from the trainers to all of the equipment is top notch.
Each trainer is genuinely interested in your fitness and want to see you reach your goals. I worked with Oscar for a month and he definitely pushed me to my limits which was what I needed since I am the type to stay in my comfort zone. They will ask you what your goals are, what you want to work on, and then create a customized work out for you. As you go through the work out, they are there watching you, fixing your form, and encouraging you the whole way. At the end of our sessions, I would leave with knowledge of new work outs and a sense of accomplishment which only got me more amped up for more physical challenges.
Everyone is incredibly considerate of each other here. Unlike big commercial gyms where you have to constantly check back for a machine or rack and people can care less that you’ve been waiting; if you’re waiting on something (which is rare here), everyone (client or trainer) is more than willing to share or finish their work out ASAP for your turn. This is a smaller gym so a lot of personal connections are made which yields a very family type of vibe. Everyone helps each other out and always maintain positive attitudes. Nobody here judges and they only care for your desire to live a healthy lifestyle.
The gym itself is kept sparkling clean. I’ve noticed that everyone cleans and wipes whatever they used down. They also re-​rack their weights and put the barbells away.
After my month with Oscar was up, I decided to join as an open gym member. You get to know all the trainers and they will notice if you haven’t come in awhile. That accountability is EVERYTHING especially for someone like me who tends to get real lazy. Like I said, these guys care.
There’s free parking behind the Staples store so you really have no excuse.

My boy Dan Oh was the only person who took a chance with my kid in training him in the off season for youth football … i didnt know what to expect… But after the 1^st day i knew right away this was the place for me… Dan is great with kids… i wouldnt trust any 1 else with my kids… we are 2yrs in now and Dan trains 2 of my boys … He has to be considered 1 of the best youth trainers around not just in football but what he does with the kids is for all sports. core strength. making sure that both sides of the body is equally strong. he had done so much for me and my kids that i told Dan he will continue to train my kids thru high school and 1 is jus 10yrs old… i didnt kno any 1 else who would have gambled with kids but Dan accepted the challenge and i really appreciate him for that… but the main thing i really love is the results i am seeing form the training… it shows on the field and on the track. Thanks Dan Oh for everything you have done for «ThaJett» your the secret behind it all

I never really write anything for the Unilocal reviews but I feel like this place deserve some love cause its AWESOME.
First of all I love the atmosphere of this gym.
It’s small and everyone is friendly and family-​like. I don’t enjoy going to the bigger gym because it intimidates me, and I feel like everyone is kind of judging me but none of that here!
Secondly, and more importantly, I love training with my trainer Stretch! He kicks my butt every time. He’s also great about correcting posture, which I appreciate a ton because I have terrible posture. It’s been a month and going on my second and I’ve noticed a lot of toning on my body. As a person who gets bored really, really easily… Its fun working with Stretch because he switches it up every time.
Hope this review helps for those thinking of trying out this gym! To recap it’s AWESOME. and then some.

Being in school, I gained a nasty ten pounds that wasn’t moving. I’d hit a plateau working out by myself regardless of how much cardio I did. I liked the name Fast, Lean, Fit because that’s what I wanted and it was close by my place. Danny, the owner was super nice and made it easy to commit to a plan. I started seeing results after a month and then started working with Oscar and lost 7 pounds plus my stomach got ripped. I was doing ½ hour sessions 2 times a week with Oscar plus cardio on the other days and Oscar would also review my diet and tweak things. He was the perfect combination of nice and supportive while pushing me to keep going when I wanted to stop. Highly recommended.

I’ve been workout with Denny for a couple month.
He is really good personal trainer
I have thyroid problem so I was so tired all the time
but it’s not anymore
I think he knows what I have to workout in my case
highly recommend

One of the best gyms I have ever been to! Everyone is super nice. All the trainers are fun to work with. They make sure to push you to the next level!

I started at FLF in August of 2015 and have stuck with Danny (and continue to do so). I generally was against personal trainers and wanted to find a gym but thought I would give it a try since I was moving back to L.A. after 12 years in NYC. It seemed like all my friends who live in L.A. got results from a trainer than a gym membership. After doing a consultation, I told myself to try it out for a month and see how I feel, not just assessing if this is for me through results, but if I feel comfortable and if personal training was for me. And let’s be honest, you really don’t «see» results for a good 3 – 5 months… well at least for me. Well, needless to say, I really enjoyed the one on one attention, the coaching, accountability, and the expertise Danny brought. He not only made the workout worthwhile but I also learned a lot about form, the right way to do exercises, and the technicalities behind the routines. After a few months, I told myself that I will stick with it and at a certain point I will probably retain what I learned and fly by myself. Not the case… there is a different dynamic with Danny (and the other trainers here). After some reflection and thinking about the benefits of working with him, it has become more than a workout. It has become a routine in my weekly schedule and I have come to find a sense of community. The other trainings (including Johnny, Sky, and Oscar) are really cool and in some way, it keeps me accountable. They will notice if they don’t see you for a while (sometimes you want to go to a happy hour, right?) and I always look forward to heading to the gym. They also have member events now and again such as rock climbing and other activities to enhance your connectivity to the program and gym, which is a bonus.
The facilities itself is great — no frills, exactly everything you need, and everything is new. That is a bonus since they have just moved into their space, so you feel like everything is clean and approachable. The conveniently have bathrooms with a shower and it feels like a complete facility.
When I started, all I wanted to do was to gain some strength, lose a little body fat, and tone up. With Danny’s support, I have loftier goals — I now bench my weight and have a goal of going significantly beyond that goal, can do pull ups easily, and can complete sets of exercises that I have never even considered doing. I am now venturing into other options like boxing and high intensity circuit training — stuff I NEVER considered. For numbers… my weight hasn’t changed, I am still at 145 but my body fat decreased from 12.5% to 9%, which is huge, since it is showing that I am losing fat and increasing muscle (Danny explained it to me…). The only negative thing now is that I am starting to outgrow my work clothes (especially shirts) which is great for results but now I have to buy new clothes which is an unexpected but pleasant cost I will have to deal with (first world problems, I know.).
For cost, since we are on the topic, I really went back and forth because it isn’t like a simple gym membership. However, the results and return on investment is so much more significant that I see this as a worthwhile expense. I realized how much I really enjoy the experience, see the results, and understand that you are getting what you pay for. It is a major commitment on your part since you need to be consistent in any training regiment, but if you are serious, commit, and want to enhance your overall well being and health, signing up with Fast, Lean, Fit is worth it. Also, after price comparing with other friends who have trainers, they are the most affordable and you get more overall.
The only reason I would tell people not go to is so that they don’t get too popular that my usual time slots don’t get taken up :) but in reality, I really do hope they do well because the trainers there are great. Also, I perused the other comments below and everything the other folks mention is pretty much true… so if you need more evidence, keep reading but more than these reviews, just call them and schedule a consultation — then see for yourself why this place is for you. I do 3 times a week and if I could, I would do more!!!

I’ve been training with Danny at Fast Lean Fit for two weeks and am already seeing great results!
In the past I’ve trained at Equinox, 24 Hour, LA Fitness, etc. but FLF’s top of the line equipment (Woodway treadmills, Rogue strength & conditioning weights) paired with an intimate and personal setting has made my PT experience a lot more rewarding.
Danny’s incorporation of proper stretching techniques to avoid injury show the diligence and care he has for his clients. Danny plays music to my liking and his upbeat attitude keeps you motivated. He is by far the best PT I’ve trained with yet and can’t wait to see even more results.

I worked out with Danny in one of the group sessions… man I was surprised how some simple exercises got my sweat really going and made my body jump into a new gear. The workout was worth it and have noticed Danny and all the trainers create a positive atmosphere at this gym. They just moved into a bigger location that is the perfect size… still has a family feel but has more equipment and space to try new cross-​fit exercises.
Now the key is to ensure I work out more!!! See you around!

Fast Lean Fit is a fantastic environment to lose weight, get in shape, or put on muscle. The trainers sit down with you to discuss your goals and help you work hard to achieve them. It’s clear that everyone involved wants the best for their clients. The equipment is brand new and the space is large. It’s everything you’d want from a workout experience. I love showing up there and spending time with Danny, Sky, and the clients they are training. Everybody is supportive, unpretentious, and fun. I always leave the place feeling great.
Specifically, I’ve been training one on one with Sky for a couple years now and I’ve seen incredible results. He’s loyal, passionate, and relentless. He leads by example by preaching self-​discipline and behavioral change. As long as I live in Los Angeles, I’ll never train anywhere else.

Fast Lean Fit is definitely my favorite gym in LA. It’s always clean, and since it’s private, it never feels too crowded for me to get my sweat on.
I’ve trained with Danny, and Sky a bunch of times, and they really know what your body needs. All the trainers here are super encouraging, supportive, and top notch pros all around.
Try the Saturday morning group workouts, too. They’ll kick your butt for sure!

I’ve been training at Fast Lean Fit since August, 2015 and I gotta say — this place is top notch.
Danny, the owner, is always making sure the facility is spotless and very organized. I train with Oscar and man the kid knows his stuff. He looks on the younger side, but, don’t let that fool you, he will kick your butt in shape and best of all he’s very patient with me. He’s taken the time to really explain every new exercise we do and even shows them on a white board.
Only check out this place if you’re serious about achieving your goals. Even if you don’t have any set in stone these guys will help you establish one and take you step by step in achieving it.
What’s more, the session prices are very reasonable, especially when you compare numbers and value to commercial gyms and other private locations.
I guarantee you won’t regret coming here, you’ll love it and want to keep coming back for more!

Great space to get results. Trainers are excellent at working with you to reach your fitness goals!

There were parts of myself I didn’t even realize needed strength until going to Fast Lean Fit. I started training and immediately saw results. Plus, it’s never boring and always encouraging. I’m so happy I found this place and don’t know where I’d be without it. Probably not able to dance around on stage, that’s where! As a musician I need a lot of core and lung strength and that’s what I get with Fast Lean Fit. So thankful and I hope you try it, too!

I hesitant to write a Unilocal review bc I’m selfish and don’t like good places getting discovered by too many people. But I definitely do believe it is Unilocal worthy, so here it goes:
I started training with Fast Lean Fit about 3 months ago. I started with their 3-​month package, and lost about 7lbs. and cut my body fat from 27% to 20% (my lowest ever!!!). I’m a workout fanatic, so I’ve done it all – from hip hop dancing to hot yoga to pilates to CrossFit to barre to running marathons, etc. But at the 3-​mo. mark I usually fall off the rail and stop because I either: 1. get bored or 2: I don’t see results. I was curious to train with a personal trainer bc I heard a lot about this place from a few people.
I didn’t really know what to expect, but Danny explained to me that Fast Lean Fit focuses on functional training, which works out your whole body simultaneously with interval workouts using your body weight, HITT, resistance bands, kettle bells, etc. Simply put, he gets my cardio in to burn fat (lean out), and my weights to build muscle (shape & tone) my body at the same time. Super efficient and effective. By the end of the workout, I’m always sweating and feeling great. And ladies, don’t worry about getting ‘butch’ or getting too ‘buff’ – these workouts are made to lean out and sculpt, and I definitely have gotten better results than working out on the reformer at a Pilates studio or a hot barre class. There’s a shower and nice amenities, so I usually change there after work.
I go 4x a week and could already see the difference after several sessions. It’s a combination of his workouts and accountability with a personal trainer. With past workouts, I didn’t know how to workout properly that was effective. Danny is great about correcting my form, personalizing my workouts to my goals, and being very attentive to my progress. He’s knowledgeable and great at what he does – always pushing me to hard and being encouraging. He also changes it up so I’m not doing the same workouts over and over. He also lets me show up 10 minutes early so I can warm up on the Woodway treadmills so I can get my 50-​min burn time on.
It’s worth it for me as I feel healthier and feel more energized overall. I feel better and can’t vouch for a better place to workout with Danny and get into shape. Thank you Danny and his whole training staff – you guys are AMAZINGGGGGGG!!!

I found this place on Unilocal and decided to give it a try based on the great reviews. I started training here in July and I saw results within 2 months. They really take their time to understand your goals and help you achieve them, inside and outside the gym. I’m there three times a week and each time I see myself getting stronger, gaining more stamina and my body toning. What I love is that you get that personal touch versus being at a big corporate gym you tend to get lost and unmotivated. They moved to a new location which is huge it has a good layout and inviting feel with brand new top of the line equipment. I am still continuing my training at FLF and looking forward to seeing more results. If your like me and need someone to push you and motivate you then definitely check them out. The owner Danny is awesome!!!

Go here and work out.
You see results and it’s impossible to come up with excuses to skip classes when your Fast Lean Fit (FFL) crew is so wonderful.
I’ve had the pleasure of working out with this team for about two months now and I’ve been impressed by their expertise and business.
I’ve never stuck with a exercise routine this consistently with any gym or class I’ve signed up for in the past. The Fast, Lean, Fit crew helps clients build a reasonable exercise plan and work around the client’s schedule. That means the client feels both committed to a routine based on their own constraints, and motivated by a team that genuinely cares about improving the clients health. The client has control over the workout times: no more conforming to the odd hours at the yoga studio, or staying up late to catch the late class at the boxing club.
The workouts, much like the scheduling, is up to you. Fast Lean Fit trainers listen to the client’s workout goals and tailor the routine based on the client’s needs and level of athleticism. Not only do the people at Fast Lean Fit know how to coordinate challenging conditioning exercise routines, they more importantly know when to push those in training, and when a client needs to recover.
No doubt: you’ll see results. The title certainly delivers.
As mentioned, Danny and the fellow trainers go to great lengths to understand the needs and goals of the clients. Because of this tailored workout experience, clients can expect to notice a change in their relationship to working out; for me, working out feels structures, and every time I come to work out, I see how the trainers get me a little closer to my goals.
I would recommend setting up time to see if Fast Lean Fit is right for your workout goals!

If you are looking for the real deal and want to fully commit to the right exercise and training, Danny is the master for you. I’ve taken Danny’s hourly sessions in 2 years ago when I lived in LA. And this weekend, I revisited LA for work from NY and 2^nd thing I’ve done after business meetings were making an appointment with Danny for the session! I like the new place, much bigger and much spacious. Unlike other PT’s, Danny won’t eat you up alive :). He is non-​intimidating trainer. Most importantly, for ladies, you want to be in shape in a right way so that you do not get the «Yo Yo’s». At F.L.F, Danny will keep the track of your BMI and body fat measurements which gives you weekly or monthly goal to achieve. So, you are up for the challenge and ready to push yourself to meet the healthy commitment? Hit the road to Ktown to F.L.F. # # #

I have been training with Danny at Fast Lean Fit for over 3 years now. From day 1 Danny asked me what were my goals and what I wanted to improve on. Since then Danny has been tailoring each training sessions to help me increase my explosiveness, strength & conditioning, jumping abilities. I play soccer at an intense level and I have been able to see a clear improvement in my performances through the hard work performed with Danny at Fast Lean Fit. Danny shows a true passion & knowledge about fitness and I would highly recommend him to high level athletes. I have seen Danny train entry level clients and he can definitely adapt and customize sessions to every level /​goals that one is looking for

If you haven’t passed by this place already, you are missing out! This gem of a gym is nestled right in the corner of 6^th and New Hampsire in Koreatown LA. Fast Lean Fit is hard to miss because of their dope ass sign! One day I saw those wings on the window on the way to pick up some Sour Cream Pringles at Walgreens, and I just stopped in my tracks. It made me want to fly in like a pigeon hunting for that bread crumb! This place, let me tell you, IS THE REAL DEAL HOLYFIELD! If you are looking for a humongous joint, where you’d get lost in the cacophony of your usual gym drones, please, go somewhere else. However, if you are looking for an intimate spot to grind out an intense workout, LOOK NO FURTHER, HOMEBOY! Their equipment is so fresh, and they even have artificial turf to run some drills! Wanna emulate the great Jerry Rice? You can’t at Fool’s Gold or LASchmidtness, but you can at FAST LEAN FIT! Plus, the owner and trainers there are nothing less than helpful. During my first workout there, instead of bombarding me with membership like at the mega fitness chains, they focused on the training, and how I can improve my skill set.
With all that said, GO TO FAST LEAN FIT and get you some!

Oscar is my trainer and I see him 3 times a week and and it’s definitely showing. People have complimented me that I’ve been getting smaller and I’m actually starting to fit into some of my old clothes again. He’s a very patient trainer but still works you hard, and you’d be surprised by how much your body can do. I have a lot of health issues and i’ve messed up my foot, but he still works around that and customizes the workout to your needs, while still pushing you to your potential. They are worth every cent, and i started noticing results 2 weeks in with him. I’ve worked with Danny too, and he’s great as well, and he will work you hard too haha. Their new gym is pretty sweet, it’s clean, and classy-​looking. I recommend this to anyone who wants fast results.

What an amazing personalized training gym. Thank you for a tough but great 1^st workout. Danny was great about correcting my form and knowing/​pushing my limitations throughout the session. It was, also, nice to be encouraged throughout the hour.
FLF gym is modern, clean, and has all new equipment’s (TRX, agility and weight equipment’s, along with other cardio machines) to work with. I had a lot of fun using all the different equipment and doing challenging balance and cardio moves. If anyone wants to try different cool equipment’s and get variations of working out on your arms and legs then check this place out. It’ll be worth your time and money to invest an hour of your day.
I love the logo and the overall ambiance of the gym. Not to forget the great care I received. I’ll be back!

I started training with Sky about a year and half ago. To be honest, I wasn’t so optimistic since I’m pretty stubborn when it comes to working out, but luckily Sky is incredibly patient and very supportive. He always has a positive energy which motivates you to work out. Don’t get me wrong. He will NOT go easy on you. He definitely works you out hard, but if you want results, you have to put in the work! He really cares about his clients and really gears the workouts to each person’s needs. He focuses on good technique and form and gives you tips on what do do if you want to work out outside of FLF. Sky is extremely helpful and a reliable trainer. Definitely one of the best trainers I’ve had!

Danny and crew just moved to a great new location with much more floorspace and updated gym equipment. I trained with Danny for a couple of months, and I had a blast. (Danny is reading this and shaking his head.) I HATE working out, but Danny has a great attitude and knew how to keep my butt in gear. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and a good guy. Recommended!

Working out with Fast Lean Fit has been pretty life-​changing. In six months, I’ve lost three inches off my waist and 15 pounds. My trainer is Danny and he always mixes up my sessions with different workouts, making them feel fresh week in and week out. The one-​on-​one training is great because the sessions are tailored to my needs and because the extra focus gets me to push harder — definitely something I couldn’t achieve on my own. Love this place!

Let me start off by saying I’ve been training at Fast Lean Fit for almost 2 years now, and I’m super excited that they have just moved locations (only 1 block down the street) to a space 3 times the size of the original location. Not only is there more floor space and separate men’s and women’s showers, but they got a whole load of new equipment too. They have a pair of brand new slat belt treadmills, twice the number of rowing machines, stationary bikes and dumbbells, and they even have a Wattbike. They also laid down a mini astroturf field which has been perfect for running drills.
Now with all that said, I think the most important thing to acknowledge is that Danny and his team will get you results, no questions about it. I’ve worked out at plenty of gyms before, often by myself, sometimes in groups or with a class, but ever since I started training one-​on-​one with someone there’s been nothing that really compares to it.
The team at FLF is made up of a handful of very friendly and very caring individuals. When I’m there I can see how each trainer caters very specific advice to their client. Not just work out advice, but advice on nutrition, supplements, and anything else you might be curious about. It’s the sort of place that welcomes anyone and everyone.
I highly recommend that anyone interested call and set up a time to take Fast Lean Fit up on their offer of a free consultation/​work out. Take that time to talk to your trainer, explain your goals, and work out a realistic game plan. And when it comes down to what it’s going to cost you, they have many different options that should fit just about any budget.

I’ve been training with Danny at FLF for about three months now and he is awesome! He’s a great sports trainer if you’re looking for something to complement an existing workout schedule. He’s always very enthusiastic as well and the gym has a very positive atmosphere. Would highly recommend!

The Fast Lean Fit crew just moved to this new location and it’s awesome.
I have been training at FLF for about 18 months now. I started looking for a trainer in Koreatown near my work after changing jobs. After having two kids and working long hours at my previous job, I realized that I had sacrificed a lot of my health. And aside from weight gain, my general health was on a downward slope. It was like putting out one fire after another.
Anyways, once I started going to FLF, the first 10 pounds came off relatively quickly. The second 10 pounds was a struggle until I CLEANED UP MY DIET and elminated some things. The last 10 lbs of fatty fatty fat fat are coming off now. But I have also become stronger. Both my girls weigh about 30 lbs and it makes me happy that I can walk for miles with one on my shoulders when we go hiking.
I can also run up ALL THE STAIRS at the Vermont/​Wilshire station without dying now. Not winded at all at the top.
Training with Danny has been very helpful in keeping me focused on staying honest with myself in recovering my health. It’s a positive and friendly environment. And when he yells at me, I honestly deserve it (I can be kind of whiney). On occasion, I have had to reschedule and the FLF team have been very accommodating, so I have been trained by Berto, Sky, and Greg a couple of times, and those have been very workouts as well.
