| - I worked out at Lifetime (attended 1 yoga class and 1 Strictly Strength class and lifted), David Barton Gym (2 week trial-attended yoga, mat pilates, spin and lifted w/2 different trainers) and Las Vegas Athletic Club (attended Pure Intensity Training, Ashtanga Yoga). After trying all the clubs I will say that David Barton was just a club for someone who wants privacy, they have few classes and I expect them to be out of business soon, Lifetime is a very nice club but I am shocked that I chose to join LVAC. Although Lifetime is a really big club with well attended classes, when I went to the popular Strictly Strength class at LIfetime there wasn't enough equipment for everyone in class. After class the people who had brought balls in from another room had to actually wait outside the class to let out to return their equipment. The teacher was very good and the club was buzzing with activity on a weekend morning. I also saw about 50 kids on the climbing wall and realized that may be hard to get time on as well. When I attended the Pure Intensity Training class at LVAC (which people LOVE) there must have been between 100-150 people in that class but there was room for everyone and equipment for everyone and we needed steps, mats, bands & 2 pairs of hand weights. I also found the yoga at LVAC to be much better technically and the class size was much smaller and there are more classes to choose from. For $150/month at DBG, $139/month at Lifetime vs. $22/month at LVAC (3 free personal training sessions the first month and one session each month was my 'free upgrade option"). If you are after group fitness classes, LVAC is the best option. If you are looking for more of a country club type atmosphere, have kids that will use the club or want one stop shopping by utilizing their hair salon, Lifetime would be a great choice. The cafe at Lifetime has a nice sit down area but the choices at LVAC are much better including the fresh squeezed juice & vegetable drinks and the huge menu of protein shakes. I also found the parking at the LVAC (Flamingo & 215) to be no problem & I was closer to the front door and saw security vehicles driving around the lot, where Lifetime was very hard to get a spot without going into the parking structure which for some reason a lot of people just don't want to bother with. I also checked out both Lifetime and LVAC during mid-morning hours and 5:30 pm time slots and both clubs had plenty of machines open and were not mobbed with people in the weight rooms. Lifetime is a very nice club but LVAC is the club for me.
