I'd never been particularly athletic, but as I aged (71 yrs now), I realized that if I wanted to…read moreage WELL rather than just morph into a wheelchair-bound slug, I needed to start taking things a little more seriously and start appreciating (way more) the good health I've always enjoyed by doing something to maintain it. A friend dragged me into StrongerLife 3 yrs ago and my life hasn't been the same since. I discovered things about myself that I wouldn't have dreamed were true: StrongerLife taught me that I'm (and, helped me become) strong, more flexible, capable of lowering blood pressure and blood sugar, more energetic, walk 2-4 miles a day with ease, improve bone density and mental acuity. There are options for every movement or exercise in the event you have an injury, or are post-surgery. StrongerLife is way, way more than a gym. It's a community with classes, events, individual coaching, challenges, workshops....and, a slew of professional, accredited coaches (the founders are both Doctors of Physical Therapy) who help us to be the best "old people" we can be. Turns out: StrongerLifers don't think of themselves as old anymore. Many of us (including me) feel we're living our best lives Right Now! We're vibrant, motivated, gain so much social interaction with good friends we've come to love so much. ALL of these things are making my "golden years" gloriously enjoyable. I hope you'll give StrongerLife a try! By the way: A group of us walk every Wednesday morning at 9am throughout the Kenwick neighborhood. You don't have to be a member of Strongerlife to join us, so....JOIN US!! We walk two miles, then retire to Kenwick Table for tea, coffee, croissants, muffins and excellent camaraderie. Make StrongerLife part of YOUR life!

I hate leaving bad reviews, however, I have given LAC several months to make this right and they…read morehave been unprofessional and have lied to me multiple times. My husband had a membership at LAC, and when we moved in December, he went online to cancel. The cancellation tab was not working (website issue) so he called LAC to figure out how to proceed. The employee told him to email a specific address and request cancellation. After doing so, he called back to ask if there was anything else he needed to do. Another employee told him there was nothing else for him to do and that his membership would be canceled. In January, we received a charge for him membership. He called LAC and inquired about the charge. They told him that his account was still open and that they would close it and cancel the charge. The charge was never canceled. In February, we did not receive a charge. On march 6th, he received a call from an employee named Lizzie, who told him that they made a mistake and didn't charge him for February, but that his account was still open and they would be charging him for February and March. Over the span of several calls with Isaac and Jordan later that day to dispute this, we were told that "the best way to cancel is to come in person". We had been moved out of Lexington for months at this point and it would have been extremely inconvenient for us to make a trip solely to cancel his membership. We explained this to them and they said they would cancel it. We asked for a refund for January- March and they said they would get back to us. On March 10th, I called to check in as I had not heard back. I was told that the health department was there that day so they were unable to help me? Isaac told me to forward the emails that we had sent back in December to his email. When I sent them over he replied "oh yeah, it makes sense why this was never seen. That guy left shortly after this was sent." Poor management on their end for this to be the answer we were given. Isaac told me that he would talk to Jordan since he dealt with issues as such and that I'd be receiving a call from him. I was never called, so I reached out again on March 22nd and was told Jordan was not in office. I reached out again the next day and was told by Jordan that he would report the issue to corporate. And when he looked at our account, he said it was still open?? After several conversations about getting out account closed it was still open?? He said he would escalate the closing of the account, whatever that means? Anyways, we were told we would be hearing from corporate soon. Fast forward to today, I still haven't heard back, so I called and was told by Isaac "great news! Your account is finally closed!" This was frustrating to hear as it should have been closed months ago. I told him that I was actually calling to inquire about my refund and see if corporate had gotten back to them. He acted like he didn't know what I was talking about and said that would have to be managed by them. He told me he would talk to Jordan and get back to me. I'm sure I won't hear back from them as they have not initiated a single call that they have promised. Aside from management, the facility was not wonderful. My husband had also signed up for swimming lessons through one of their instructors. The communication leading up to the lesson was horrible, and then the instructor never showed up? He called and no answer. She called back several days later with no apology or explanation for her no show, and rescheduled. My husband said she was extremely passive aggressive during the lesson. My husband and I are not the type to complain- we try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt and find the good in each situation. However, I am so frustrated with this facility. The monthly membership is far too expensive to be treated like this.

This is a great place to work out. They do a semi-personal training style wherein they show you…read morethe exercises you are supposed to do and how to do them and then let you off to go do them. This isn't the kind of place where they are in your face the whole time. I have been coming here for 5 months as of now and I can tell you I feel a lot stronger and in much better physical condition. They custom tailor the workouts to fit your needs and wants. There are several people here from all different ages and physical conditions. They also help people who are recovering from injuries. They also offer some classes in the evening, though I don't know much about them because I can only work out in the morning. I have never stuck with a personal trainer or even on specific gym for as long as I have here. I like the staff and they make each day different so you don't plateau or get bored. I like this place so much that now my mother in law, sister in law, and even one of her friends and their mother come too.

But you know what, for some reason, I return, at least once each week, for more. The staff - fun, knowledgeable, and relaxed. The space - a nicely converted garage, not too big, not too small. The equipment - modern, well maintained, cleaned regularly. The clientele - other than myself, respectable, varied in age, body-type, agility, and athleticism, with a good gender balance. The workout plan - classes (mornings, evenings, and weekends) of 15-20 pain lovers do an hour of circuit training, muscle confusion centered, varied exercises, with little rest, and with lots of music. Pay as you go, buy a 10 pack (my preference) or pay per month for unlimited. Clients also have the option to pay a premium for one on one training per appointment. Regular doses of this stuff help keep a boy/girl sane, and regular doses of this lead to a well earned visit to one our Yelp favorites for food and drink. It's all part of the grand and tasty cycle of life.
