| - Equipment is nice and the grounds are very clean; however, all the times I've went it was very busy and a lot of the staff came off a little unwelcoming each time I needed assistance.
Talking to some of the Lifetime Athletic staff reminded me of talking to a clerk at the DMV that's in a bad mood. Each time I needed something the staff members came off like your wasting there time and didn't truly care about there members.(Had about 5 interactions with different staff members during 5AM to around 7AM on weekdays)
Every time I checked in up at the front around 5AM I did not feel welcome. I did feel very welcomed the first day when they gave me a tour.(checked in at 8PM) They even called me by my name when I walked in and the experience was very professional.
The price of $150 monthly is a good deal for all the amenities you get. Indoor tennis, basketball court, all the latest gym equipment, indoor and outdoor pool, steam room, dry sauna, all the toiletries, and several workout classes!
I've had different gym memberships from $10 a month at Fitness 19 and up to $300 a month at Anthem Country Club Fitness & Wellness. I'd say Lifetime Athletic is great if your looking for state of the art equipment, clean facilities, and all the imenities you can ask for. However, if welcoming customer service and having available gym equipment is important to you this may not be the athletic club for you.
Even at my $20 a month gym membership the staff smiles and welcomes me into the gym every time. They also don't have 30 people standing in front of the "free-weights" area at 6AM. I'm not a fan of big crowds when I'm working out.
I've only used this gym in the mornings. The night shift could be much different. And just to recap this is one of the most beautiful gyms I've been in. However, when I pay $150 a month I expect welcoming service from the staff on duty and available gym equipment. If you have any additional questions about my experience feel free to email me at chris@chriscrabb.net.
Make it a great day!
