About

Expansive gym offering a fitness floor, tennis courts, squat racks and a pool.

While specific temperatures for each pool at this exact location are not publicly listed, Life Time clubs typically maintain their indoor lap pools in the range of 82-84°F (27.8-28.9°C), and warmer leisure or family-friendly pools often between 86-88°F (30-31.1°C).

What are people saying (AI review summary)? Lifetime Fitness generally receives high praise for its excellent facilities, extensive range of sports, fitness equipment, and convenient amenities like towel service and heated pools. Members frequently commend its family-friendly atmosphere and friendly staff. Specific individuals, personal trainer Joe Windsor and hairstylist Brandy, are highlighted for their exceptional skills, knowledge, and positive impact on members. Joe Windsor is particularly lauded for his motivating approach and comprehensive understanding of fitness and nutrition. However, a significant recurring concern is the Food and Beverage department, which faces criticism for issues such as constantly running out of items, broken equipment, and excessively long wait times, leading to member frustration and a call for corporate action.

I love Lifetime and have been going regularly for several years now. The convenience of towel service, lockers, showers, razors etc makes the gym a great value. The outdoor pool in summer is amazing, and they heat the lap pool outside year round, which is awesome. I made the leap and signed up with a trainer, because getting injured cost too much now, and it's one of the best things I've ever done for myself and my family. Joe Windsor is the right mix of fun, work and education. His knowledge of fitness and his dedication to his own fitness make him a perfect blend of coach, role model and trainer. If he isn't booked, you'd be lucky to have him as your trainer. It's like a big family in there, and for me it's like the cheers bar, only a lot better for me.

I went to Lifetime Fitness to follow my favorite hairstylist BRANDY!!! She is amazing and has been doing my hair for years. Brandy is great with all textures, cuts, and styles (I've had them all). Her personality is so warm, pleasant and vibrant she lights up the salon! In addition the gym facility is very nice!!

My family loves to spend time at LT Fitness, but the best part for me has been working with personal trainer Joe Windsor. My only wish is that I would have had him in my life 20 years ago 🤣. He is incredibly knowledgeable in all aspects of fitness and nutrition, but also understands the specific challenges women face in middle-age. He is incredibly motivating, encouraging and supportive and would (and do!) highly recommend Joe to everyone looking for a personal trainer.

I really love Lifetime. The facilities are great. The staff is friendly and it’s a great family place. However, there is one issue that needs attention. The Food and Beverage department is riddled with issues. They are constantly running out of food items, salad dressing, hamburger buns, broken frozen drink machine, you name it, this location has constant food and beverage issues. It’s very frustrating for members. Lifetime corporate needs to bring in a professional food and beverage manager to straighten it out. We’re at the pool today and member after member are complaining about food and beverage issues, especially how long it takes to get any order. Members are not happy with this aspect of Lifetime and hopefully this review brings attention to the F&B issues and corporate takes some action to turn things around.

What a place!!! Unbelievable. That's the only way to describe this gym/ club/ wellness center. The largest amount of sports (indoor and outdoor) that you can experience and a enormous variety of fitness equipment and weight lifting as well. Definitely recommended 👌
