Been using this gym for almost a year now. New ownership in Jan 2019 has really done a good job making a clean, friendly, well-stocked place. I’ve enjoyed my personal training sessions with Geoff and Nathan. There’s beer down front for after your workout (or before I don’t judge), always clean towels, lots of equipment from machines to free weights, a pretty dang full class schedule, helpful front desk staff (thanks Derek!), and lots of squash/basketball courts.

The trainers are great, and invested in their clients. The equipment isn’t cutting edge but it is serviceable, and weight is weight regardless of age. Whatever it lacks in newness it makes up for 100 times over in personality.
This gym puts a smile on my face. I enjoy being there, and would recommend it to anyone of any skill level.

When you walk through the front door with a pleasant greeting from the dedicated staff, you feel right at home. A tour of the club and you see a bond between staff and members. Lloyd Athletic has your concerns as a priority and work with you to set goals tailed to your needs. I strongly recommend a visit to see how the staff can work with you in meeting your goals.

Words can not adequately express my feeling about Lloyd Athletic Club. I became a member 3 years ago and through help and inspiration, I have attained most all of my personal goals over these last few years. I have a personal trainer that is second to best and he is Rigo Ramirez. Rigo has worked with me for over a year and through his motivating and my determination, we have succeeded on many fronts. Rigo has inspired me to enter the Shamrock Walk this year, something that I have never done and in May I am biking in a 25 mile ride to raise money for Doernbecher Childrens Hospital. Rigo helped make this happen by helping to get me into the best shape possible to accomplish my goals. I couldn’t have done this without Rigo and I recommend him to anyone that asks about a personal trainer. I find the whole staff to be so supportive of my goals and my accomplishments. You couldn’t ask for a better staff of folks to work with at LAC. I can’t say enough about LAC so it best that I just stop and say, check it out….you will be greeted with genuine friendliness and concern for your goals.

I’m newish to Portland, (about 2 years), and came with big plans to start new leaf program, and get into shape. I found Lloyd Athletic Club within a few months, and especially I found a trainer who has been amazing. Justin is extremely knowledgeable, competent, and experienced. But especially, he has been terrific at intuiting what I specifically need to be motivated. He’s been my trainer now for about a year and a half, and this is the first time I’ve ever stayed with a trainer or any kind of regimen for this long. And I’ve had MANY previous efforts! I have no plans to stop anytime soon, and I’m sure I owe it to Justin’s expertise, and his kind, fun demeanor.

This gym features some top notch personal trainers whose breadth of knowledge on the topic goes far beyond trainers I’ve talked to at any other gym. They know how to keep it fun, challenging, and always inspire greatness. Definite recommend. A++++++

Very clean, staff and other patrons are friendly. Their personal training classes are awesome! I’ve tried so many other gyms and they never quite felt inviting to all. I instantly felt welcomed and that I belonged!

All of the staff I’ve met so far are incredibly nice! Huge space, with a good selection of equipment. I personally enjoy using the functional fitness room for most of my workouts, but I definitely appreciate all of the other amenities!

So far everyone on the staff has been very nice and helpful! I love that there is an option to choose from a functional training room or a standard weight room for workouts. The weight room has a variety of equipment and is spread out so you dont feel like you are constantly on top of everyone else!

Great local gym. Trainers are very knowledgeable and flexible. Everyone here is friendly and don’t mind helping you. Great classes, atmosphere and free towels. The sauna and hot tubs are a plus. Great hours too. Must try.

I love LAC and consider it a treasure outside the ranks of corporate gyms. I became a member this year, and have also signed up for combination personal training and unlimited group training. I couldn’t be happier with my choice of gyms. I hope it never goes away!!

I have loved my personal and group training experience so far at Lloyd Athletic Club. It has a very comfortable vibe and all trainees are extremely helpful at answering basic questions without judgement.
Adam is a very knowledgeable personal trainer and goes above and beyond to communicate with me in between sessions. Same can be said for the group trainer, Khino. Khino is incredibly patient and takes the time to give personal guidance even within the group session. I feel very comfortable even though I am not a gym buff of any kind.
I have lost 10 pounds so far. I am very happy with my progress so far toward getting ready for my wedding day in a month. I highly recommend this gym!

I love this gym! I signed up for a year of personal training with Nathan in January and have been super pleased with the results so far. The group training classes are awesome, Khino, Nick (owner) and Carmen put together great routines for all fitness levels – you get out of it what you put in. The atmosphere is relaxed and they have a sauna, steam room and hot tub in the locker rooms (huge bonus for me!). Overall, it’s a great neighborhood gym with a knowledgeable staff and attentive new owners.
