This is the best gym in the area. UFIT has you doing cardio and strength for a complete work out.  You work out your upper and lower body with strength training and the work outs are always different so it never gets boring.  The trainers keep an eye on you to ensure you have proper form to get the most from the exercise.  A fun place to work out.

I joined in April 2012. I love everything about UFIT — the ownership, the trainers, the location, the other members, the originality and variety of the workouts, and the reserved seat for Fritz! UFIT has played a significant role in my physical and mental health for the past 8 years. Most importantly, I have significant back issues and it has helped me overcome them without surgery. After 8 years and about 1,000 workouts, I can confidently say I’ve never had the same 2 workouts at UFIT. I’m never bored nor disappointed with my workouts.

I’ve been working out at this gym 3 to 4 days a week for over 10 years, and never once have I had the same workout. In any given class, the ages range from the late teens to the late 70’s. I have never felt intimidated or slighted. As one in her “golden years”, there have been many occasions when I need modifying (whether it be due to an injury rehab or just plain age…and my body doesn’t work like that anymore). The trainers are very patient and never hesitate to modify my personal workout. This is truly a family, and I wouldn’t want to start my day any other way.

When I moved to Manhattan Beach I joined three different gyms in the area, one after the other. Finally, a friend told me about UFIT and I’ve been there ever since. None of the others compare. For six years UFIT has been—and will always be—my fitness home. The gym is run extremely well, the trainers are the absolute best, and the atmosphere is so great that the stranger working out next to you today will likely become your friend tomorrow. Save yourself the time I wasted at other gyms. Go to UFIT!

For me the small group exercise format works perfectly. A coach comes up with the workout, which keeps it fast paced and lets me focus on the exercise. I don’t need to think, I just keep moving and getting a great workout with the camaraderie of my fellow participants. I’ve tried other gyms both by myself and with personal trainers. I don’t need someone counting reps, but at the same time, some guidance helps. Ufit strikes the perfect balance.

I love the community. I love the trainers. I love that every time after I leave a class, no matter who is teaching, I leave feeling like I got my butt kicked (in a good way). Finding this gym and this community has been such an incredible addition to my life and overall well-being! That’s what is great about the gym. I can add weight and lower reps if I want to build muscle. Or I can focus on cardio and slim down if I’m feeling like being a little more on the lean side. This gym can really give you whatever you want. I’ve also noticed, which is definitely the best addition to my fitness regime, there’s a huge focus on recovery. Take care of your body; stretch, roll-out, rest sore muscles. It’s not about always killing yourself in a workout. It’s about longevity and real, lasting lifestyle improvements. The support to push myself to be better in all aspects. To lift harder, run faster, get out of a funky mood and smile. It’s the most wonderful gym I’ve ever been to. It makes it even more fun to workout with all of my sisters at UFIT too!

The UFIT team has made my personal health journey so much better. It had been years since I exercised, and I have some joint/back concerns. The team takes time to work with me, encourage me. Over my time at UFIT I have lost weight, gained strength, balance, and muscle tone. I have more energy, and love how I feel now. The UFIT trainers are kind, and yet push me too. Love my UFIT family and thank you for helping me age gracefully into middle age.
