LA Fitness

Not since Olivia Newton John invited us to get "Physical" has there been a greater temptation to throw on a sweatshirt or leotard and leg warmers: The spacious aerobic rooms at the three local LA Fitness locations have enough hardwood and mirrors to drive the sentimental into a Flashdance frenzy. (LA Fitness was established in 1984, after all.) The college hard-body next to you is just as likely to be cranking "Footloose" on the ol' iPod as the 30-something parents who just dropped off the little ones at the Kids Klub so they can squeeze in a quick spin class. The clubs get packed during peak times, but with a huge selection of exercise equipment, classes, racquetball courts, basketball and swimming, you'll find that LA Fitness is a hard habit to break.
