Just joined the El Segundo location. The staff here is great, they are passionate about what they do, and keep the place clean and functioning smoothly. They have all the equipment I desire without the bogged down feeling of a big box gym. My only wish is that they had a scan to enter on both doors, but a few button presses on a keypad won’t stop me from coming here.

The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and make learning and trading a fun and interactive experience. If you start working out here, you won't be happy at any other gym, anywhere.

I worked out at 4 star for several years. Mac was the owner. I was one of two girls that worked out at this gym.
Bear seemed to be the manager and he helped instruct me re different ways to benefit my workout.
I really liked 4 star.

No nonsense gym dedicated to powerlifting and SBD. Loved the iron weights as well as the Olympic bars and weights too.

Great gym and great people. Dropped in for 2 days and the whole team was very accommodating and made it such a good experience. On the top of my list for the next time I’m in the area

I've really enjoyed my experience so far training at 4 Star Gym. Coming from gyms where I felt overwhelmed by the size and crowds, 4 Star provides a more personal environment that has allowed me to focus fully on my workouts without distractions or intimidation.
What I appreciate most is the structured programming - having my sessions planned out ahead of time takes the guesswork out of workouts for me. Crossing items off the checklist as I complete them makes workouts more interactive and fun. My trainer has also done an excellent job breaking down exercises to ensure I have the form down before progressing.
The small class sizes mean I receive individualized attention to learn proper form. I've been able to ease into training at a comfortable pace through the bootcamp format. Already I'm seeing improvements in my strength, and I'm looking forward to our upcoming testing day to quantify my progress so far. Overall, 4 Star has provided a supportive experience that has helped develop sustainable fitness habits for me.

Really loving this gym. I joined 1 month ago to start back up on strength training and am really glad I chose 4 Star. Great old school vibe, all the weights and racks you could need and no waiting around for equipment. The staff have all been cool and didn’t oversell me like most gyms. Also love getting my own key and being able to go when I want. Most days I’m in there solo with the music cranked and if there is anyone’s else there it’s only a coupe people max so no
Waiting around for equipment.

It's a real luxury to have key card access to a gym which has all the important equipment to squat, bench and deadlift. The owners are super cool and they make an effort to keep the gym nice and the traffic light - no waiting for a squat rack!

This is my favorite gym I’ve visited in Los Angeles. It is never crowded and they have all the equipment you could ask for, and even a lot of the more obscure training tools you will never find at commercial gyms. I’ve had trouble finding a good gym in Los Angeles because they are all too commercial and crowded, making it difficult to get a great workout in. Finding GTS has solved that problem for me! Jason and the rest of his staff are super responsive and very attentive to any questions I’ve had.

This gym has just about all the equipment you could ever need. You get your own key and I often got the gym all to myself. The other gym members were very friendly and polite.

This place is amazing. There must be something in the water because I'm seriously hooked. And you can be too!
QIf you're looking to start your strength journey but aren't sure how or where to start, this place is definitely for you! All trainers are super knowledgeable and share so much information that will help you get the best resultsYou'll feel encouraged by everyone every step of the way, leaving no room for doubt in your mind.
If you're debating, no problem.
Try the 3 day barbell training offered at this gym. It will definitely help improve your form and educate you on fitness safety you didn’t really think much of when working out.

Jason at Game Time Strength has taken over management of 4 Star and he keeps making it better and better. He's been adding new equipment and additional facilities in Westchester and Redondo which really makes the membership here more flexible. The coaches at GTS fantastic too and I've been very happy working with them for the last 2 years. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Great gym, great owner, great experience. Can't see myself going back to a global gym. Jason reinvests what patrons put into the gym with new equipment and constant updates and listens to his members. Worth every penny.

The only reason I go is to play with the dogs, but I usually end up staying to work out anyway.
I've been going to this gym for a few years now and have enjoyed it so much more than any other gym I have been to previously. In other gyms I never felt any sort of connection to the employees and I felt intimidated by the equipment. Here when I work out it feels like I'm working out with friends. Talking to the trainers helps the time pass by faster, and they always help me out if I have a question or am struggling with a particular exercise. Coming here has also been extremely helpful because I have chronic back problems that don't always allow me to work out, but when I have a flare up Jason is always quick to give me alternate exercises or stretches I can do to stay active while not overly straining my back. Working with him, I have been able to get much stronger and lose weight, and as someone who has had to work through health issues in the past, Jason knows how to coach somebody through their physical limitations while still helping them to get in better shape.

I have never been so happy with a gym. 24 hour access, a bunch of squat racks, great price, nice staff, and often I’m the only person there (5-6am)

Should rename it to 5-Star Gym.
Was in town for work and looking for a place to do some morning barbell training. Dropped in unannounced and was immediately welcomed by a couple of 4-legged greeters.
The hospitality continued throughout the whole experience. The staff was welcoming and let me do my thing.
Not a lot of frills, but plenty of quality equipment to do whatever strength training you’re into.
Wish I had found this place a long time ago and would love to find a place like it at home. Will continue to revisit every time I’m back in town.

Special gym. This review is long overdue. Been training here for 4 years now. I was looking for a no nonsense place where I could train olympic lifts. Found this place and dropped by to sign up and pick up a key the very first day that I moved into the area. Haven't looked back since.
You simply cannot beat the price, equipment quality, or training atmosphere that this gym offers. I love the 24-hour proxy key, bumper plates, and wrestling mats, features that are usually difficult to find all in one place. All levels of lifters are welcome.
Mike, the owner, is a great guy, super friendly. 4 Star has a long history within the community dating back to 1969 and we're lucky to have someone like Mike keeping this gem alive and thriving.

Awesome gym! Michael was able to give me a tour of the gym prior to me joining and the amount of equipment tailored to power lifters is amazing! I cannot recommend this place enough if your goal is to become as strong as possible. Plus as an added bonus it is accessible 24/7! Love this place!

Excellent gym. If you are into powerlifting, this is the place to be. You'll run into big powerlifting names from SoCal and there is always an abundance of knowledgeable people if you need any advice on your squat, bench, or deadlift. It's not rare to see someone rocking 4+ plate (405) squats for reps or pulling 5+ plates.
