West Hollywood is where so many exercise and wellness trends are born, which means you’re in the perfect place to try the latest innovations in fitness. Meet spin instructors who double as motivational speakers, book a one-on-one bootcamp with a celebrity trainer, or work up a sweat in gyms with lighting and sound systems that would make some nightclubs jealous. When you’re done, revitalize your mind, body and soul with cutting-edge wellness treatments ranging from flotation therapy to vitamin drips.
To stay on track during your visit, get your sweat on at these local favorites:
Studio CLMBR
If you’re feeling burned out on cycling, it might be time to try climbing. Heralded by Men’s Health magazine as “intense cardio and strength in one low-impact workout,” The CLMBR is a revolutionary vertical climber machine that promises to burn 60% more calories than running, rowing and biking workouts. And to keep all your senses fully engaged, Studio CLMBR integrates experiential lighting and sound to help you “reach new heights” of fitness.

Barry’s Bootcamp
The trainers at legendary gym Barry’s Bootcamp aren’t interested in your excuses—they’re only interested in helping you sculpt your best possible body. Their impressive list of satisfied celebrity clients is more than enough evidence that Barry’s system works. If you need convincing, just look at Jessica Biel’s abs.

P.volve
Over time, high-impact workouts can take a toll on the body. P.volve was created by and for women as a more sustainable, but no less effective alternative. The method combines low-impact movement and specially designed resistance equipment for a workout that sculpts, tones and strengths—or, as P.volve puts it, “helps you break a sweat, not your body.” The result? A lifted butt, toned legs, sculpted arms and “lines you won’t believe” in your abs. The WeHo studio is one of only four locations in the country. For everyone else, there’s online streaming.

Health House
High-intensity, short bursts are what Health House has in-store for you with their creative, effective workouts, utilizing rowing machines to target and chisel specific muscle groups. One class focuses on rowing and strength. The other, on strength and balance. Showers allow you to fit it seamlessly into a busy day.

Reebok CrossFit LAB
CrossFit can be intimidating—trust us, we get it. Luckily, the team at Reebok CrossFit LAB understands we aren’t all aspiring to be the next American Gladiator (being the next American Ninja Warrior could be cool, though…and if you’re interested, this is the place to work out). CrossFit LAB offers classes that condition your body and prepare you for any fitness challenge you may be daring enough to try (hello, obstacle course races!). From gymnastics to cross run, Flex Fridays to Butts and Guts (‘cause who doesn’t want a great ass and toned abs), the expansive studio offers you a one-stop shop for vacation fitness.
