Fit Little Italy

FIT in Little Italy is hands down one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to. The facility is always clean, well-equipped, and has an awesome energy that makes you actually want to work out. The staff is incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about helping you hit your goals. And special shoutout to Sammy, the absolute best! Sammy goes above and beyond every time, brings great vibes, and makes the whole experience next-level. If you’re looking for a gym with great people and an even better atmosphere, FIT is the place to be.

I have been a Fit member for about 3-4 years. Really love all that the gym and community has to offer. I have had my stints going to all locations and have to say Little Italy has been my consistent favorite. Cleanliness, staff, and equipment availability are top notch - even during peak rush hours. Love seeing Sammy there always greeting guests by name making sure we feel welcomed and enjoy our workout. Highly recommend to all of those looking to expand past what commercial gyms have to offer!

I genuinely can’t say enough good things about the team here at Little Italy the support, energy, and professionalism make this gym truly special. Hailey, my personal trainer, has been a complete game changer. She has guided me through marathon training and Hyrox prep while helping me rebuild confidence in my body and rediscover how empowering it is to be strong. Her workouts are intentional, challenging, and tailored to my goals, and she is incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and motivating. Eli, the Service Director at the Little Italy location, brings such great energy and professionalism to the gym. He is extremely knowledgeable and always quick to help with any membership questions or issues. Having someone so approachable and reliable makes the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Ashley is an amazing Group X instructor and the lead of the run club. Whether it’s Core & Glutes, Grit, or run club, her energy is contagious and motivating. Just being around her can completely brighten your day, and she creates an environment that makes you want to show up and push yourself. Together, Hailey, Eli, and Ashley create a supportive, inspiring, and empowering gym experience. Because of them, this gym feels like a community one I’m genuinely grateful to be a part of.

I absolutely love this gym! It is totally worth every dollar. I come here every week to see my trainer Emma for her Full Body Workout class on Thursdays. I’ve been seeing her for a 1 1/2 years and I have never felt stronger. Emma is a great trainer and is knowledgeable about the human body!! She has provided me with an online workout on the FIT app as well which I enjoyed. If you want to see a difference in your body appearance and strength she is your go-to trainer.

I’ve been training at Fit Athletic Little Italy since 2022 and with Hailey Jackson specifically for times a week since 2023. Hailey is incredibly knowledgeable in weightlifting and wellness, but what sets her apart is how much she genuinely cares about her clients and community. We’ve not only worked toward my fitness goals—we’ve shared holidays, birthdays, and so many important life moments along the way. Hailey has helped me grow stronger, more confident, and more consistent than I ever thought possible. I’m beyond grateful for her support, dedication, and belief in me. If you’re looking for a community who impacts your life positively both inside and outside the gym, Fit Athletic is the best in San Diego. Thank you, Hailey, and all of the amazing team members at Fit!

I’ve been going to FIT for a little over three years now and I can’t imagine going to any other gym in San Diego. Not only are the facilities, clean and high-end, but the personal trainers are top-notch. I’ve worked with Hailey on and off over the years and she’s the best trainer I’ve ever had. Workouts with her are fun, varied, and effective! Highly recommend working with her.

I used this gym as part of my stay at the Carte Hotel in San Diego (shared space, free for hotel guests). For a hotel gym, it’s a solid 5 stars! As a standalone gym, I’d give it a strong 4.5. It’s not 24/7, unlike some hotel gyms, but the hours are reasonable and align with most commercial gyms. The equipment selection is impressive, including equipment catered to to serious athletes with options like Jacobs Ladders, manual treadmills, various bikes, and dedicated squat and deadlift platforms. Some equipment shows slight wear but remains in good condition overall. The locker rooms feature decent saunas and steam rooms, with convenient built-in combination locks—no need to bring your own and towel service is included. Gym guests also get access to the hotels pool and spa and there are indoor and outdoor workout areas. The gym is clean, and the front desk staff are friendly and welcoming.

I visited Fit little Italy briefly in my time in San Diego. I have to say that the staff was so welcoming and helpful in guiding an enjoyable experience. One member particularly stood out to me and that was Elena. Her personality was so kind and welcoming and she made me feel extremely comfortable, especially as someone who was trying out the gym for the first time. Highly recommend.
