What gym do you go to and what do you think of it?
My gym membership is up and I'm looking for options.

If you're stuck with 24, there's another location in Altadena just a few miles away. Wayyyy better layout and ventilation (I hate the one on Colorado!). And it's right across the street from Super King where you can buy really cheap fresh produce afterward

This is my home gym. I go from 9-midnight and the people are super friendly, almost no meatheads, lots of bros. And double that for the Super King; super cheap produce perfect for a before or after shop session

I "go to" the 24 hour fitness on Colorado and Oakland. I use parentheses because I used to be an avid gym goer until I moved and this became the only 24 convenient to me, and now I never go to the gym. It is the worst gym I have ever been to. It is not well ventilated, has no fans near the cardio area, is musty, is terribly laid out, and has too many stairs. Do not sign up for this gym - I plan on switching as soon as I move to basically any other gym that is even slightly convenient. Hopefully other people have more helpful comments that I can take notes from about GOOD gyms!

Been there, just as you said. Never going again.

I have 24 and LA passes. Both off Rosemead in the Hastings Ranch area. I prefer the new LA only because I started going there opening day and I like the basketball court, but it closes too early. That's when I use my 24 pass.

Golds Gym off of Colorado and Altadena

I go to Caltech's gym. It's small, not very crowded and most things. Not sure about the pricing.

Consider Crossfit Crowncity. They have an East and West location, both of which are great.

I go to the LA Fitnesses. There's one on lake/cordova, but it's kind of a pain (multilevel and you have to validate pkg. They just opened a new loc at colorado/Rosemead and it's dope. No validation and all new equip. I have been a member for over 10 years so my rate is also super low.
Is the one near Hastings open yet? Or is that the one you're talking about? If so that's more towards Foothill than Colorado.
Yes, that's it. Sorry, you're right. Foothill, not Colorado.
Thanks for letting me know. I went this morning and it's really nice! I quit going to the Lake one because it was getting old and went to the Fremont one in Alhambra because it felt more open, but the Foothill one is much nicer and no need to validate parking!
