Parking was awful. I was had an appointment with another business in the same complex and had intended to pop in and check it out afterwards when two Karens walked out of the gym, saw Me and made it a point of walking by glaring straight into My cars passenger window both times as they passed as I was parking. Not at all welcoming for new business so I decided not to even bother.

Hands down the best experience with a personal trainer! The work out, motivation and results were all there! Paul and his wife Donna are wonderful people and glad to be able to have met them. I was with them for a few months and the results are long lasting with the core work outs. I continued with them even after a life changing injury and Paul brought me back to my normal self, gained the confidence to continue moving forward. Would recommend to anyone looking to make a positive change in their life. Affordable and theyβre able to tailor your work out regimen to your needs. Best part of all it goes down in their personal gym!

Honestly, I'm not sure what I would do without Paul (and Donna). Yes. I said both of them. While I only workout w. Paul, Donna is also great and equally makes this place what it is.
Ok, so I started working out with Paul almost 3 years ago. 3-4 times a week, for an hour. I'm not sure I've ever worked with a trainer who is so active in helping you achieve your goals, who pushes you, give you advice on eating routines (even if you are vegan or pescatarian, and helps you see actual results. I've literally recommended him to 3-5 people. They all took my advice, and all continue to go to him. One even moved to NYC and kept going to him when in town. If all those tangible things you'd hope to find in a trainer aren't enough, he's also hilarious. His humor, personality, and overall self is that of someone that I'd easily hang out outside of the gym. Hands down. It may not seem like a quality you need or want in a trainer, but trust me. When you're dead lifting almost 400lbs+, it's good to have someone who can help you focus first, and make it laugh afterwards.
The actually studio is definitely a hidden gem. You could easily pass it and may not seem like much upon first site. Throw those thoughts out the window. I'm not sure there's ever been anything that I needed to do, that I couldn't do in this space. It's perfect! They do a nice job of using the space inside, the stairs, and the parking lot outside for farmer carries and tire flips or carries. Yes. Tire flips or carries. You've been warned :).
Net net, personal trainers in LA get a bad wrap for being a certain type of person that really doesn't care if you hit your goals. Paul, Donna, and everyone else at fit connection are not those trainers. If you're lucky enough to get a spot with either Donna or Paul, do it. You'll more than enjoy it. Just don't take my time slot :) ha ha.

The Fit Connection is a private gym that's clean, welcoming and I absolutely love. Paul has been my personal trainer for a year now and has always worked to accommodate my schedule. My husband has joined our sessions and Paul has pushed us both physically and mentally. The workouts are always hard, but totally worth it!

Such an encouraging and amazing environment!! Always uplifting and cheering you on as you reach your goal. I always walk in feeling motivated, determined, and ready! With an atmosphere such as this and coaches that are not only educated but care, there's no other option but to meet your goal. But of course, your personal will takes precedence.

Awesome place, the gym is private and has great equipment. I usually work out with Paul Harvey, he's an amazing trainer and even better guy. Paul has helped me tremendously over the last year and has taught me a great deal along the way. Both Paul and Donna know their stuff, I highly suggest to anyone interested to reach out to them. They do a great job here with helping you meet your goals and keeping you motivated. Whether you're just starting to work out or your someone looking for more advanced training this is the best place to do it.

Fantastic trainers! I cannot recommend Paul and Donna enough! Hour long sessions that are affordable for the LA area. They are MUCH better than trainers who work at bigger chain gyms. I have trained with Paul to work on strengthening and have absolutely seen results. My boyfriend trains here as well, so we occasionally share a session on weekends. Paul is is able to accommodate two people at once with different capabilities/needs. Sessions include post-workout stretching which really helps. Measurements are taken at your first or second session so you can track results. I have worked with about 3 other trainers before at other locations and Paul is by far the best. It is also way more fun to workout with a trainer who has a good sense of humor. If you are training elsewhere you are missing out!

I canβt say enough good things about The Fit Connection. When I needed to lose over 30 lbs Paul came to my rescue! He created a fitness routine especially for my age - I was over 60 and one tailored things for not only my age ,but also my fitness level. Thanks to Paul, I lost the weight and have kept it off. In addition to the fitness program, I had a food log and I got instructions on how to use resistance bands at home for continued support. I would recommend them highly!!!!!!!!!!

I have had the extreme pleasure of having had both Donna and Paul as my personal trainers and I couldn't think of anyone else I would rather entrust my physical and mental well being to. Each of them found out what I was interested in working on and then they put their expertise to work with a specific training program to suit my needs and then would also update as we went along accordingly. Every workout was always challenging, but in the best of ways. Even though the workouts now are done the new virtual way, I have been so impressed how "in person" it feels and my body is still getting the same incredible workout.

Iβve been using The Fit Connectionβs services for nearly 10 years. I couldnβt be happier with the services and tangible benefits Iβve received. Paul continues to design training programs specifically for my needs - and as those needs evolve. His training regimens are demanding and rigorous β yet he remains Personally solicitous and caring - making sure that each session continues to address my individual health goals and objectives. He also sets a compelling pace for each session to ensure an optimal workout for the entire body on a pace that continually challenges. I would unhesitatingly recommend the Fit Connection.

Great facility out by the beach - Paul is awesome ! As a strength and conditioning trainer he helped my daughter go from third string pitcher to All CIF - He knows his stuff pushes you to work harder but always keeps it fun - Same goes for his work as personal trainer - I started working out with him after the success he had with my daughter - Great guy, great gym. I can't recommend them both highly enough -

Paul is the man! Been training with Paul for over 2 years, and I've never been stronger. Not only has he helped me get in the best shape of my life (at 43), he helped me win a very competitive "body fat loss challenge" between me and 30 friends (I lost 53% of my body fat in 70 days). He's a great guy, he cares deeply about his clients, and he's a wealth of health knowledge. His wife Donna is a badass as well. Highly recommended.

One of the best decisions of my life was to train with Paul. I won't leave Donna out of the equation either, an inspiring and supportive Fit Connection ally. I trained with Paul for many years, prior to that I had zero success at my strength and size goals. We blew past them, with a lot of work. Since I moved away from The Fit Connection, it has not been the same without them. My mind and body learned from weight training. I did learn enough to (almost) maintain the new goals, but at 57, I am closer to my personal best than I was at 44 when I met Paul. He is simply the best man for the job.

I have been training with Paul for over 13 years and can not be more grateful. I started his training program when my daughter was 2 months old and I was shocked at how quickly my body transformed. I was not accustomed to his style of training and adapted quickly and my body responded well. I felt most comfortable training with Paul and asking questions about my health and diet along the way. More importantly he helped me reach my goals and I never felt judged when I fell needed personal advice. I look at Paul as more now of a life coach, fitness trainer, and friend. He really cares about his clients and invests a lot of time in planning our workouts to meet our goals. I highly recommend training with Paul if you wish to see change and results!

No exaggeration to say that working with Donna and Paul was life-changing. I went from never having worked out to being in the best health of my life when I worked with Fit Connection. I learned about everything from proper nutrition to proper form. Although I've since moved from LA and had many life changes, the lessons I've learned from Donna & Paul have stayed with me!

Hands down. The best trainer I ever had. Got into the best shape of my life! Responsive and attentive to your needs without being overbearing. Funny guy makes you feel at ease but at the same time pushes you to be your best. Honestly missed the guy since moving to West Covina. There is nobody like him at all around here. Total professional.

I worked out with Paul twice a week for the better part of a year and a half. During that time I got in the best shape of my life. Paul showed me how to get in shape and then to get strong, without injury.
I fully recommend Paul and the Fit Connection!
