I would give 5 stars just on the quality of my personal trainer, Benaisha Doctor. She does an…read moreexcellent job of thoughtfully planning workouts that took my physical issues into account, making every session both safe and effective...much more so than other trainers I have had through the years. She's a great coach; kept me on track, always cheerful, positive, and motivating. This became something to look forward to, instead of dreading it, making it very helpful in meeting my goals. Membership here does require a long-term commitment and swimming around full team schedules. I like the personal feel of the gym; the lap pool is warm enough for me; and the outdoor area is GREAT for families. It's not a new facility, but the equipment is well maintained and there are a variety of exercise classes.

I asked Denice Adrian, who is the Assistant General Manager, Director of Sales if I could just pay…read moreto take water aerobics classes because I am disabled and on SSDI. She flat out told me no. That basically have to pay almost $1,000 for their membership and the about $54 to $200 a month in addition to. They don't just allow people to just sign up and pay per water aerobics classes package or per class. I am trying to find places close to home that do indoor and outdoor water aerobics to be active. And not having luck. But don't go to Granite Falls Swim & Athletics in Rolesville! What a joke and way too expensive!!

Small community pool only for Caddell Woods residents and their guests. It's pretty small, there's…read moreno deep water, so no diving or slides, no lanes to swim in, and no shade other than some umbrellas, no shade at all over the water. Can be extremely crowded on weekends and during the summer when kids are out of school, with no adult-only swim times, and no lifeguard on duty. So a bit of a perk if you live there, but tends to be mostly used by families with kids, that are happy just splashing around and playing in the water.

Love love love it here. I have attended a birthday party here with my child and for the past couple…read moreof months have had my child in the swim classes. I really like this facility and it's always clean. Staff is super friendly. Only thing i will say is it's kind of chilly in there and i wish the swim classes had even more offerings.

Ive now been coming here for 3 years and have held off on reviewing until now. This place is…read moregreat! They understand how to run a pool with cleanliness, simple/con-complicated/fun-first rules. The members walk the line perfectly between being fun for adults and staying family friendly. The members keep a 3rd eye on other kids. Profanity isnt heard in music ever. Canned beer is welcomed, but nobody drinks too much. They have a great diving board. Guests are welcomed for a reasonable fee that keeps it fun and attracts new members long term. Only reason I went 4 stars instead of 5 is that it is ready for a facelift. I will keep coming back for years to come.

first off, i want to highlight my experience with Toni, one of the personal trainers. i came in…read moreand he was doing a 1 minute plank = 5 minutes of stretching session. max 3 minutes. he displayed professionalism throughout my session with him. i've been a member at life time in the past in another state and had a great experience. this location is just as good, if not better. staff are friendly and helpful and the gym has a lot of amenities. the weight room can get packed during peak hours but they are closed until midnight which is nice for anyone who chooses to workout late. they have towels, shampoo, mouth wash, hair spray, hair dryers, shaving cream and razors, and deodorant in the locker rooms. the price is definitely worth it if you use the amenities.

Very disappointing experience at Life Time Athletic…read more One of the biggest issues is the complete lack of enforcement around the outdoor hot tub. The posted rules clearly state that the hot tub is for ages 12 and older, yet there are regularly groups of children who appear to be well under that age using it. Every now and then a lifeguard comes over and asks about their age, but by now the kids seem to know exactly what to say: "We're 12." The lifeguard accepts the answer and leaves. What's even more frustrating is that after the lifeguard walks away, I've heard some of these kids laughing about the fact that nobody can do anything about it. The issue isn't simply that children are in the hot tub. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem with kids enjoying it. The problem is the lack of supervision and enforcement. On numerous occasions I've seen children eating in or around the hot tub, with pieces of food ending up in the water. It's unsanitary and completely unacceptable. I don't know when management and the lifeguard staff stopped caring, but when you're charging some of the highest membership fees in the area, members should expect much better standards. Rules should either be enforced consistently or changed altogether. Another disappointing change is the replacement of many of the water fountains with units that don't clearly show the status of the water filter. Members should be able to easily see whether a filter is functioning properly or needs replacement. For a company that constantly markets itself as being focused on member wellness and health, this seems incredibly ironic. Life Time positions itself as a premium fitness club, but the declining attention to cleanliness, rule enforcement, and member experience makes it harder and harder to justify the premium price.
