There is no denying that LA is an image-focused town where working out isn't just a lifestyle, it is the lifestyle. Whether it's at a boot camp, at the gym, in a spin or yoga class, at Runyon or Griffith Park or at studios like Pop Physique or Cardio Barre, Los Angeles residents like to sweat on a daily basis. Of course, this means that residents need places to shop for all these workouts. Inspired by our Hottest Trainers contest, we've compiled 15 stellar places to get properly outfitted in the best workout gear any budget can buy.—Lexy Lebsack
