Tucked into a low-key warehouse space in West Hollywood, you'll find a no-frills training ground where serious lifters, industry insiders, and their coaches converge to put in the work.

Beverly Hills Health and Fitness was founded in 1985. The club was purchased by Lisa and Peter Nault in April of 2005. The Naults have a special love of the gym. It is where they met in 1999 (when Peter was Lisa’s trainer), and seven years later they are married, and have two children to show for their efforts, Victor, 4 and Stevie, 2. <br> The club has a long history of membership loyalty – most of them enjoy the ambience which has been described as “New York” style. The club’s landmark art-deco building also helps set the mood.
