About

Spacious gym featuring an array of activities, plus an indoor and outdoor pool and a water park.

The Midlothian Athletic Club maintains several heated pools. The indoor lap pool is typically kept at a comfortable temperature for fitness swimming (approximately 80-82°F). An indoor warm water pool, ideal for therapy and lessons, is maintained at a warmer temperature (approximately 88-90°F). Outdoor pools are also seasonally heated for comfortable use.

What are people saying (AI review summary)? The facility garners mixed reviews, with many members praising its extensive amenities, including various sports courts, indoor pools, modern equipment, and diverse classes, often noting its cleanliness and lack of waiting times. The personal trainer, FitPhil, is consistently highlighted for his expertise, patience, and ability to help clients achieve their fitness goals. However, significant criticisms include the prolonged closure and perceived neglect of the outdoor pool, which is described as outdated and unmaintained, leading to frustration with the club's inflexible membership policies regarding amenity closures. Additionally, there are serious complaints about administrative issues, specifically billing errors where members were sent to collections for uncharged months despite having available funds, contributing to a perception of declining service and increasing costs.

Amazing and beautiful facility. The machines are smooth and exceptional and they have anything you would want to use. No waiting and they are constantly cleaning the entire place. They have tennis, indoor and outdoor pools with a fun area for kids, racquetball courts, basketball, classes from spin to Pilates, saunas and large restrooms with plenty of showers and changing areas. They also offer personal training and have their very own FitPhil Zone with access to FitPhil, a master trainer. A great place for families or single members, you won't regret joining this club

Phil is tough but patient. He knows his training me too odd and always come prepared to help you grow to the next level of your fitness journey. His knowledge on nutrition and core body change is extensive and he always leads with a smile. 10/10 would recommend him and the whole MAC community!

The outdoor pool is closed this season and only notified about a month ago. It has been in shambles for years and surprisingly they can't repair it during the cold months when it's closed. A very outdated facility that has horrible membership policies and you can't get out of it even when they close the outdoor pool. When I asked about it, I was told it's similar to when a treadmill breaks down. No, not really. They have many treadmills, but only 1 large outdoor pool that they haven't kept updated in many, many years. The indoor pool really isn't any nicer. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere!

Fantastic place. Super nice staff. Lots of great equipment, gyms, tennis, weights and more. Huge shout out to #FitPhil. He takes the time to work with all his clients. He is living proof of healthy body, mind and soul. If you are thinking about it… Stop and go see Phil. Your life will be transformed! #FitPhil

They FORGOT to charge me for 2 months even though my linked bank account was properly funded to be able to pay my membership fee then sent me to collections for “not paying” when I had no idea that I was not being charged as I don’t check that account. This place just gets worse and more expensive
