I was a guest that came here to play pickleball. The pickleball courts were well spaced and were surrounded by netted screens to aid in whiffle ball retrieval. Floors were well marked and nets were solid. There were benches here and there for the ability to watch games and a water bottle faucet helped reduce plastic bottle use. I did peek in the Women's locker room and it was clean and spacious. Check-in was efficient. Staff was friendly. Great experience. read more

Life Time - Lifetime Achievement - Gyms Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

How there are reviews below 5 stars is wild to me, there are so many great things about this location: - The smaller scale of this gym makes it feel much more cozy and creates an atmosphere where everyone knows each other - The staff is ridiculously friendly and always a treat to converse with - The locker rooms are always very well maintained - The pickleball Pros are extremely knowledgeable and do an excellent job teaching pickleball (huge shoutout to Dan and Katie) - Highly recommend taking Dan's clinics as they are an equal balance of learning and fun - Katie who runs the club does a fantastic job creating a club that feels like a second club that I've rarely found at other lifetime locations read more

My local go to gym. It isn't the nicest, nor does it have top of the line equipment, but it does the job. This location is super convenient, right off of HWY 100 & 494. In the same parking lot, there is a Holiday gas station, pancheros, jimmy johns, nail salon and palm beach tan. Super convenient to run multiple errands, or stop to work out on the way home. They do have a hot tub and saunas, and a quality locker room. Super friendly front desk staff and I love the track upstairs. They used to be open 24 hours, which I loved, but now close at midnight which can be annoying when you're trying to get in a late night workout. read more

Friendly staff, clean facilities, and plenty of space & machines to work out. Normally pretty quiet & fewer people than other locations around the city and suburbs. High ceilings, indoor track, and multiple squat racks are highlights for me. read more

I've a member of LifeTime since it purchased NW Racket Club. The Bloomington North Club is excellent no frills facility; professional and friendly staff, outstanding trainers and instructors and the best mens locker room attendant in LifeTime (until Mark was recruit to Southdale). The classes had excellent variety. The instructors were outstanding. It was THE best facility for COVID safety measures. The rooms and all equipment were completely sanitized after every class. Cusps to Terri and her instructors. i'm sure the remodeled club will be attractive to pickle ball enthusiasts, but I miss the classes, instructors and members. read more

This club might not seem to be as amazing as St. Louis Park or Minnetonka, but I still make the drive to go here for some fitness classes (Even though I actually do own a higher Lifetime membership). The club itself has a lot of machines and weightlifting options. They even just added on a crossfit section by the studio on the workout level. If you're looking for a good gold membership Lifetime, definitely go here! If I was rating just the club itself, I would give a 3, but since this is Teri's main club, I'll add a star! My favorite instructor is Teri BY FAR. She has AMAZING classes such as fit (with weights), HIIT (High intensity Interval Training) and the mix (kickboxing/cardio) just to name a few. I have been taking her classes for years and there is no one that challenges me as much as her, while keeping it fun at the same time! You can tell she loves her job tremendously. I've taken endless fitness classes at multiple places, so I've done my fair share of boring... literally falling asleep instead of working out or skipping around to the worst 80's music you can imagine. And I promise you that this is no where near that. It is amazing. And girls, she will make you will grow a butt. You have to take Teri's classes. Then thank me later ;) read more

After MONTHS of trying to find a gym, I finally sucked it up and dished out the big bills to join the ritzy Life Time Fitness. Much to my dismay, the club has actually proven to be a great place to work out. The staff are cordual, the facilities are incredibly clean and the ammenities are amazing. There is mouthwash, lotion and hair dryers in the bathrooms... Showers are well taken are of. You get free locker access and free towel usage. The only cons: are 1) PARKING: It is impossible to find a place to park... They did start a shuttle service, but let's be honest, I don't want to wait in -2 degree weather for a shuttle to come, even if it does run every 10 minutes... that is why I joined an INDOOR gym! 2) The price. It is expensive. I see why they can charge that price, they really go above and beyond, but my do-gooder mind frame would rather give that kind of money to a YMCA that betters the community... but hey, who am I to talk--I am paying to belong and enjoying it. read more

UPDATED AS OF MAY 2015 This is a decent location, if unglamorous, except for an impressive new crossfit/functional training area installed in 2015. POSITIVES: * Awesome new crossfit "rig" on the workout floor (aka "Alpha rig"). Far larger and more impressive than even higher-level locations. * 24-hour access * Clean/well-maintained * Close access to Normandale Rd/Hwy 100 and 494 NEGATIVES: * No hot tub or steam room in the locker room * The main staircase is extremely tight. The stairs going down to the locker room can just barely fit two people of average proportions. If either is larger, you need to stop and yield the stairway to them. This sounds really minor but it's an annoyance every time I go to the club. * Difficult location to bike to, and extremely poor transit access. (You'll have to walk from across Normandale Rd, and take a bus that runs every half hr at most.) NEUTRAL/OTHER NOTES: * I enjoy the group fitness class I go to (HIIT or Total Conditioning), but it has a terrible gender balance. Generally like 49 women and me. * It has a track, which is nice, but it's very low-quality. Short distance, plain concrete, and it's not banked at all around the corners. Not fun for running at any speed. * Decent-quality bike rack, but you'll find it hidden back by the dumpsters. I've also driven here many times, and have not experienced the car parking squeeze people complain about. * No LifeCafe, but it does have free coffee and a well-stocked vending machine. All in all, I mainly go here for Total Conditioning. For 24-hour access otherwise, I prefer the Highland Park location, even though it is slightly farther from where I live. read more

This place is one of the few no-nonsense LifeTime Fitness I know. There is hardly any glitz to this place. It opens 24 hours with plenty of weights, tvs, and machines to work from. Only complains is the stairs that lead to the locker room is narrow and arkward when 2 people trying to use it at once. It is very clean and 'quiet' compare to the other LifeTime Fitness clubs in the area. read more

I'm a big Lifetime fan and user and this is my least favorite location. Stacked tall, the layout of the Lifetime is up and down a super skinny flight of stairs. In fact, to get to the locker rooms you take that stairway. After an intense workout and very long and skinny flight of stairs can be a bit daunting. Parking can be a pain, even midday. There are lots of spots, but way too many businesses in this area for how many parking spots are in the lot My other big complaint is the showers... hot water is clearly not a known item at this location. I always take the QUICKEST shower in the world just to be out of the bitter cold water. I have event attempted to use almost every single shower in the women's locker room at this LF and each is the same. Cold and when a toilet flushes, it gets worse! read more

Yes, compared to the Eden Prairie Lifetime this club may look a little out-of-shape and not have sushi for everyone to dine on. But to me this club is pretty A-okay. A-okay, being that they have amazing group fitness instructors here (Teri is a goddess!), its location is extremely convenient to my work, & they have a few extra bells & whistles (i.e. sauna, free towels, large lockers, spa, coffee). All of the people at this club, instructors & those working out, have been very friendly too. Happy faces all around! Yes, the parking isn't awesome but it's always manageable to find a spot fairly close. There isn't a cafe, and the stairs are quite narrow-- the only real downsides here. read more

Warrior Sculpt on Thursday's has me feeling sore in all the right ways! What a great workout. I love that it wasn't too hot that you slipped around on the floor but hot enough to get your sweat on. Kelsey was super encouraging even when I felt like I was going to collapse! Very low risk environment to try something new. I highly recommend the class! I couldn't be more happy that I tried something new in my workout routines. read more

Good Life Time location but don't really expect anything fancy. Check in staff is super friendly and the facilities are very clean. Some of the equipment is outdated. Kind of a weird layout but they have a an indoor track, whirlpool, racquet ball courts, a spa and two workout studios. I really love that they offer classes over lunch everyday because there are a ton of office buildings right by it. Parking absolutely stinks but it's a public lot so just be prepared. read more

Pros: I can actually focus on my workout without being bothered at this Lifetime. Like some other reviewers said, it is quieter than other Lifetime locations. They have plenty of weightlifting equipment as well as the new Alpha Rig for Alpha Training (similar to Crossfit, but with more focus on proper form - at least that was the description my trainer gave when I asked what is Alpha). Yoga with Libby B. is great - she is so positive and has a gentle voice. One reviewer mentioned group showers. This may be true for the men's locker room, but the womens' locker room has individual shower stalls, and there is even a space for you to put your towel inside the curtain rather than outside, which is an added perk. There is lotion and mouthwash in the women's locker room, as well as a special water fountain with the spout for filling up water bottles. The hot tub is in a common area near the spa/massage door, and is used by both men and women, but it is nice and big. 24-hour club Cons: No steam room No LifeCafe Spa only offers massage services only - not a full spa like some of the other locations Staircase to get to the locker rooms is narrow and awkward read more

This Lifetime location is much quieter than others - for a reason. The locker rooms are really dirty, the trash is always overflowing, and there always seems to be someone drying their sweaty underwear in the sauna (yuck!). There's never any issue in getting access to the machines, though, because I'm usually one of the only ones there. read more

Since we signed up we had about a month without any issues, but when the issues started they did not stop. I addressed this issues, mainly cleanliness with the staff as well as with the general manager Jeff, multiple times through phone calls and emails. I even sent in photos of the cleanliness to show proof. Time and time again Jeff assured me the issues would be resolved but they weren't. One of the main issues was the locks and locker rooms. We took photos weekly of the gym and were assured countless times the issues would be resolved as well as told they clean the locker rooms daily. So why do we have photos of week after week of the same places and spots filled with dirt. The women's locks were never cleaned over a 2 month period. We took weekly and bi weekly photos of proof but again our claims were pushed aside and Jeff even told us to find another gym....to say the least we tried to cancel our membership but of course we have to give them at least a months notice so we can get screwed by them once again. For the money you pay at life time fitness you should at least have a clean locker room. Stay away and if the manager Jeff says he will follow up with your issues I'd take it with a big gulp of BS!!! Also they gym is not handicap accessible. Thanks for that. read more

See all

Need to run some drain-o through the sinks in the locker room. Towels only outside the locker room is kind of bizarre as well. Wifi is still garbage. It sucks paying the same amount for this location as you would a nicer location. read more

I come here often being that it is so close to my work. There are definitely some pros and cons to this location. Pros is that its relatively quiet and there's definitely plenty of space to roam and find your machines. I never seem to have any issues with the machines being used up, etc. I do hate how overall small this location is. I have gone to several locations and this may be considered one of the smaller locations. The hallway/stairs to get to the locker room is definitely a potential hazard, there's barely any room to walk up and down the stairs at the same time as another individual. But overall, I do come back due to the convenience. read more

Probably the worst LTF I have been to in the metro area judged by size and lack of amenities. Very little space on the gym floor and a stair case to the weight room so small only one person at a time can fit through it makes me rate this location a 2/5. Also, what is up with the lack of MN sports on the televisions?! Half of the trainers sport MN Wild gear yet I have never seen one game on any of their 13 televisions in the 3+ years I have been working out here. Really the only upside about this location is the kindness of the staff (Mark in particular), that being said this location needs a serious makeover if it is to hold true to the prestigious brand that is Lifetime Fitness. read more

I enjoy using this Lifetime Fitness club! One thing, Joe Hein is the guy to go to it you want a great massage!

This is one of the worst lifetimes in this city. It is dated, they have minimal equipment, the bathrooms are gross and the staff could learn a little basic customer service. Stick with St Louis Park, or downtown. read more

Great location, excellent training, exercise and support staff. Easy to get in and out, especially during the low peak hours. Really like the now frills aspect. I can do without a pool, basketball court, juice bar, etc. read more

The gym is ok, very friendly front desk, but the yoga classes here are not so great. Yoga on Friday is awful, I have been to other Life Time yoga classes, however, this teacher talks too much and is very judgmental, avoid this class! read more
