Meet your trainer: Elle!

Elle was born and raised in Sydney, Australia and has been living in the US for the past 8 years. She is a Musical Theatre Performer and Choreographer as well as a Certified Personal Trainer!

In the fitness world, Elle started her training journey at the inaugural F45 studio in New York City, and has built her own online training business. Elle is so happy to be an OG member of the Alter training family, and brings all of her past experience and expertise from her fitness coaching background to her classes here at Alter. She is passionate about helping her clients build healthy, realistic and long-lasting habits with friendly and dedicated mentorship!

When she’s not on the road for a musical theater performance, you can catch her for classes right here at Alter! Keep a look out for her name on the schedule. She can’t wait to have you in class!

Do you prioritize regeneration as much as you focus on your training?

As one of the three main pillars of Alter’s coaching philosophy (outside of physical fitness and nutrition), we believe regeneration is just as vital as all the other pieces. In order to reap the most rewards from training, our body has to be healthy, mobile, and functioning well.

Alter is pleased to partner with the Barlow Clinic for all of your regenerative needs. In your transformation package, you’re able to access regenerative services at Barlow, including:

• Physical therapy
• Massage therapy
• Acupuncture
• Chiropractic

Whether you’re nursing a nagging injury or just trying to keep your body functioning optimally, we firmly believe in the importance of regeneration as a vital component of a holistic training program.

What are your goals? What is your motivation to accomplish those goals? What do you need help with in order to reach your goals?

These are the types of questions you can expect to cover in your introductory Alter Discovery Chat. Here at Alter, our coaching staff takes a very hands-on approach with our clients. From programming and training, to nutrition and regeneration, we know there are a lot of components to a successful fitness journey. That’s where we come in—the masterminds behind your personalized program, we do all the nitty-gritty planning so you can just focus on the heavy lifting (literally and figuratively).

If you’re looking for a little guidance along your fitness journey, reach out to us! We’d love to sit down with you and see if our coaching model would be a good fit for you and your fitness goals!

Wishing our Alter community a happy Monday and a great week ahead. Stay cool during this heat wave, keep crushing those workouts, and keep being awesome. We appreciate each and every one of you!

Revamped and reimagined!

Our Alter Bootcamp underwent a little facelift recently, from minor changes in the class format, to big changes in programming! Designed to be a 30 day, full-body transformation, the Bootcamp alternates between strength and conditioning weeks, with consistent rotation between muscle groups to reduce the risk of overtraining or overuse. Flip through the slides to find out more about the program!

If you’d like to try the Bootcamp, reach out to us today. We’d love to get your started!

‼️ UPDATE ‼️ Basement gym back in action!

We are pleased to announce that the basement gym is back to regular operations! We will temporarily keep the Sky Gym closed while we allow equipment to dry.

We encourage you to assess conditions in your area, and proceed with caution where necessary, but if the roads are safe we’d be more than happy to see you at the club today!

‼️ CLOSURE NOTICE ‼️

Due to the inclement weather and some unexpected flooding in the basement, the basement gym is unfortunately closed until further notice.

Morning group fitness classes have also been cancelled due to conditions.

We plan to have staff assess conditions in the morning, and will resume operations when we believe our facilities are safe to reopen.

We appreciate your patience and understanding, and will keep you informed with updates.

Stay safe out there, LA!

Here at Alter we believe in diversity in your training. Building a strong body and mind, inside and out, involves keeping the body strong, stable, powerful, and flexible (just to name a few), which is why we offer a range of training formats, including yoga.

Come join our fabulous instructor every Monday and Friday afternoon at 12pm (or use your personal training credits to book a private for a more personalized experience) and begin reaping the benefits of yoga! From increased mental clarity and stress reduction, to increasing flexibility, yoga is a wonderful way to support your health from the inside out! 🧘🏻‍♀️

Happy hump day, Alter!

We hope you’re staying cool out there in this heat wave. If you’re enjoying some sunshine up at the Sky Gym, make sure to stay hydrated and don’t forget your SPF (complimentary sunscreen can be found in the locker rooms and at the entrance to the rooftop). If heated workouts aren’t quite your thing, head down to the basement to escape the heat while you get that pump 💪🏽

Happy training, fit fam!
