I really like this gym. I love the fact they have a ton of things for kids to do. I can workout or take a class and I know my child is doing fun stuff. Everyone seems very nice and the atmosphere is amazing. None of that big muscle half naked show off stuff walking around. Gyms like that make me nuts. They treat the gym like its an after hours party and go in make up, half naked out fits, and guys drop weights around to show off. Thats not my cup of tea. I enjoy Lifetime Fitness due to the fact its fun, motivated, friendly people working out. They're there for a reason which is to get healthy and get in shape not put on a show and show off. Also everything is very clean. For a 24hr gym to be clean is sometimes hard to find. The monthly fee of $189 a month is very expensive but like anything else you get what you pay for. I pay that much because I pay $40 for the kids academy so my daughter can go play in the play room and do classes while I workout and do my thing. I love the steam room, and hot tub. Those are my two favorite things to do if I want to wind down from an intense class or workout and also the pool indoor and outdoor are very nice. Its all worth it. I wish they allowed the members to use the indoor tennis courts without paying the hourly fee, but they make you pay $12 an hour for the indoor tennis courts. So thats a bummer but the basketball courts are available with the membership and the outdoor tennis courts are also. But in the months that outside doesnt allow tennis such as hot hot summers or if its cold in the winter I would use the indoor tennis courts. But after paying $189 a month for me to pay $12 an hour on top of that isnt something I will do. The LT bucks are also very cool. You can earn gym money for the spa, kids stuff, swim, food whatever is there you can use your LT bucks. You earn the bucks from referring people to Lifetime or from shopping at certain places. Its a cool idea and comes in handy when you need to buy something but don't want to use your credit card or cash. My daughter loves the outdoor slides at the pool. Those are always fun in the summertime. I would for sure recommend Lifetime to anyone but anyone with kids is an absolute must. Nothing like working out and getting healthy while your kids do active entertaining stuff. Kill two birds with one stone. I'm looking forward to continuing my membership at lifetime I'm trying to get into the best shape I can and also have a break once in awhile from my daughter once in awhile. She loves the classes and play area. Hopefully the kids are will just keep adding new classes and fun interactive stuff because the kid stuff is 100% what made me get the membership. If it werent for that I wouldnt have done it.
