    I'd say the best medium to large size gym in Olathe is Genesis Health Club. It's located in a safe…read morepart of town and easy to access. The staff are extremely friendly and I've never had an issue while being a patron. I will go on record there will be busy times and off times, and most of my review comes from the perspective of a 5am gym rat. The experience during peak times like 5-7pm will be substantially different. That said, Gensis has a fair amount of equipment to keep everyone happy if you don't mind working in. First off, the showers are plentiful and well stocked with towels but the pathway to the indoor pool is a bit sketchy in that you pass in view of the front door. I've never had to wait on a shower, typically between 5-7am. As for swimming laps in the winter, one might need to tailer their swim routine as people like me who can swim roughly 100 laps and then there's the elderly swim classes. The point is there are limitations. When spring-fall happens it's a bit easier b/c the outdoor pool offers more lanes. Also, the outdoor pool is great for kids who are just starting to swim. Not only do they have a slide but a gradual slope into the water allows kids to wade slowly, perfect for a teaching moment. Next, I've never tried the café so I can't speak on prices, options or anything. As far as BB courts I workout really early in the morning so I can usually shoot alone but afternoons, you'll be waiting to get on the floor. I've never been to a class for things like aerobics, yoga or anything but I have had a trainer. My trainer was a former Mr Midwest champ at light heavyweight, or something along those lines but I honestly think I was bamboozled a bit. In my ignorance I was expecting 3 or 4 sessions a week, a meal plan and several different workout options based on my desired goals. What I got was a body fat measurement via a tape measure and scale along with a musclebound dude to spot me for 3 months. No meal plan, no spreadsheet with workouts that fit me. I mean he fulfilled the spirit of the contract besides not giving me a meal plan other than "eat some berries and tuna", but not what we initially discussed. Now, I will say the greatest thing I learned was foam rolling my muscles. I will admit, I wrestled in high school and college and I've always been fit therefore I know how to workout and diet. So, for many others, they may need a little more education so be sure to emphasize that in the contract. As for workout equipment, they have plenty of stair masters, nautilus machines, free weights, treadmills and so forth to accommodate a lot of people. I think out of my 4 years there I only had an issue with someone reading a newspaper on a butterfly machine and I was doing cardio line training so I didn't want my heart rate to slow down while he was reading. Other than that, it's been very good. What I really like it the indoor track upstairs. This offers a good alternative to the treadmill and good to burn off some calories, but watch out for those people doing squat thrusts in the slow lane! In summary, I never used all the amenities offered but there are a lot. I only wanted to reference what I've taken advantage of at Genesis. I was happy with my stay there and encourage anyone who wants to improve their health to drop on by and get a free trial membership. Two thumbs almost straight up!

    This is one of my favorite Genesis gyms run by a one of my favorite Genesis managers, Chris. This…read morelocation used to be rundown, as they bought it from a company who bought it from Prairie Life and needless to say, they spent a lot of money and resurrected it to a level far above what it was at its former peak. Everything is new and improved, and the staff is friendly and helpful. They interact with members better than any of the gyms around here. They also listen and make improvements as they go, which is pretty darn intuitive. And speaking of intuition, I happen to be hearing impaired and years ago, when I was signing my contract, they were very helpful by taking it slow, which I very much appreciated. The equipment is all brand new, so it should be great for many years to come. The pool, sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, and free weight areas are all top drawer. All in all, a great gym

    I really tried to support this gym. With such incredibly poor customer service as well as…read moreinsufficient safety in their facility, I will not be going back. Walked out halfway through a group x workout today when the room hit 77°. Called that day to ensure an instructor would be leading to the class and it was confirmed. When I arrived, a different instructor was there, which was what I was trying to avoid. There are many much better gyms than this one. Hot as hell during summer and leaky ceilings during rain, no thanks. I'd rather go to a clean planet fitness.

    Yelpers, this place is a best kept secret! I just did a…read morecycle class at 68s. I officially love this facility. The staff is awesome, the classes are diverse. There is literally a class for everyone! There is cardio equipment, a large weight room, many racquetball courts, a pool, indoor track, and basketball courts. They also have a smoothie bar / beverage station. I wish I lived closer, but because they are so awesome, it is not going to deter me getting a membership. They also offer swim lessons for all levels at discounted member rates. The class I attended today was taught by Corey. She was great, enthusiastic, and the class was perfect for me!!! In cycle, you adjust the tension to your fitness level. The instructor will encourage you to increase your resistance also. It will keep you from slacking! I strongly urge everyone to give this place a shot. It is so fun and I can't wait to start spending my boring winter evenings there! They also have a sauna and whirlpool, I have not seen/used these yet, so I can't comment. I read one review that said it "smells upstairs" but I did not experience that. Mary, at the front desk was so friendly and accommodating, I was thrilled she showed me around. Another bonus is free use of locks! You just check your keys in and they give you a lock to use. The womens locker room is newly renovated, and they also offer towel service. I'm still giving them 5 stars, though, as other yelpers have discussed, the cardio room/equipment could use some updates. However, the machines work and I haven't noticed anyone waiting around for anything. Besides, I go there for the classes and will be using the pool, and tend not to spend a lot of time in the cardio area. They offer free childcare and tons of other programs/leagues. They even offer golf swing lessons, and massage therapy!!! I think they have done significant updates since other people have reviewed this place, so if you're thinking of checking it out, do it. I don't think you'll be disappointed!

    I visited this Life Time twice during a recent trip to Overland Park... I worked from their cafe…read moreand worked out a bit as well as took a super quick cold plunge on my first visit. The second time I was in and out pretty quickly for a yoga class and ordered some dinner to go from the cafe. Aside from some construction happening in the parking lot, and the food selection not being as amazing as I was hoping, my experience was super positive. I see they offer tons of classes as well as pickleball and the facility is huge with pretty much any kind of workout equipment you could possibly want. If I lived in the area, I'd likely want to be a member here, but since I don't, I'll settle for being a guest when I visit. Thanks Life Time!

Life Time Fitness is HUGE and I mean they literally have whatever you desire (Fleur-de-Lis for all of you L.A. Confidential lovers). Located in a very strategic and safe location, near a major intersection and the freeway, traffic and parking will never be an issue. But if you have to park far away, isn't that part of the workout!? Anyways I find the facility to be very clean, friendly and safe environment without to many "weirdo's" (take that how you want).

He had his cap on, his gold chain was bigger than my arm, and hit leg was as big as my torso. He saw me catching a glimpse and we had a small conversation and I mentioned I didn't want to bug him. He laughed and said "I approached you, so we're good!" Class act even though I'm a Cleveland fan! In summary, I never used all the amenities offered but there are a lot.

Decent restrooms. They could be cleaner, but they're not gross by any means. I especially like the fact that free WiFi is available. Fields 5-12 could use some improvement. There is a pretty significant lip around the edge of the infields. That makes it tricky for outfielders to handle ground balls sometimes. Nice place overall.

All of the fields are in great condition and they are easily accessible. The main walk in offers a view of some of the fields and the main clubhouse. The main clubhouse offers the standard concession stand, while boasting a 21 and older bar on the second floor. If you continue through the park, you will walk past the batting cages and a children's playground to keep the rug rats busy during your competitive game of corporate slow-pitch. At the end of the complex you come to another concession stand that sells food, drinks and beer, and has male and female bathrooms. The location is a little on the southern side, but it is worth the drive to enjoy a game of softball or baseball at clean and well kept complex.

    For a kid who was privileged enough to grow up on major-league ballparks, I find that smaller…read moreminor-league parks are always full of charm and beautiful idiosyncrasies. Whether it's the between-innings merriment, like kids' races or other creative games, or the sponsored placards adorning the outfield, no two minor-league ballfields are the same. Legends Field has that same unique elegance and has hosted minor league summer ball for the past two decades. Whether it was the bygones of T-Bones baseball or the current (re-)incarnation of the Kansas City Monarchs, having a summer tenant offers families and baseball lovers an evening entertainment option. Sure, this isn't 'big time' baseball, but they still play the game with bases spaced 90' apart, so maybe it's just the laundry the players are wearing that makes it different. Good seats are generally available and all of the stadium seating is seat-backs (no splintered benches). The patio & berm beyond left field allows for more of a picnic atmosphere or maybe even an expanse of grass where littles can play safely. Concessions are located on both sides of the concourse, featuring some local goodies, and if you just fancy an adult beverage, then there is even dedicated space just for that. A beer & a dog seem to make baseball even sweeter, IMO. The concourse is sprinkled with homage to some of the past Monarchs from Negro League days, such as Buck O'Neill and the lightning-fast Cool Papa Bell. Honestly, if you aren't familiar with Buck AND you live in the KC area, then life under that rock must be comfortable. These guys, like ol' Satchel Paige, were LEGENDS, and you can see why the place carries the moniker 'Legends Field'. Parking is easy and plentiful and if time allows, then the Legends shopping area offers lots of eating (and even shopping!) options. Tickets are easy to come by and affordable, making this a viable opportunity to share with family & friends. You might even have a shot at a foul ball or maybe even a moonshot that clears the fences (300' down the LF line is crazy, but so is 411' to left-center), so look sharp and stay in the action. Baseball is a summer pastime and this is great place to take part.

    What a fun place to spend the afternoon. We met some friends here to watch the Monarchs play ball…read more The game was exciting, it's family friendly and more economical than going to a major league game. The tickets are reasonably priced and parking is FREE! FREE! FREE!! The food and drinks are a bit pricey but overall you can spend an afternoon with the family at affordable prices. I highly recommend!!!
