    I've read all the negative reviews so here's the reasons I find this a five star gym. Note my…read moreinterests and situation probably are different from yours, so I am very clear regarding these factors so you can judge whether this gym makes sense for you. Lifetime bills itself as an athletic country club. It definitely has that feel. Many amenities are included in membership including towel service, saunas, lockers with locks installed, a cafe, a spa with massages as well as full beauty services. An infants and Kids Academy (at extra cost) are available. Indoor sauna and steam rooms are available plus indoor whirlpool, lap pool and leisure pool. In season there's an outdoor pool. Basketball courts, rock climbing and a squash court and pickleball at available. Lots of pickleball - lessons, leagues and just play. I assume this is eating into some of the time alloted to other activities but since I joined after pickleball exploded as an activity, I can't judge before and after. Plus I do not play any of the above racket sports. Classes galore including yoga, cycle, Pilates, Barre and dance. Training classes at various levels of intensity and desired outcomes are numerous. As a new member you get a free training session. Everyone said, since I have neck surgery and have nuts, bolts and screws in my neck, I should schedule my personal session with Jason. And Jason caught into my physical limitations more quickly than many physical therapists. Afterwards, I bought another lesson with him, and a cardio evaluation, both of which were very worthwhile and kept me improving. The equipment floor has a wide variety of weights, machines, bicycles, ellipticals, treadmills - just about everything you'd think of. Plus there is staff all over. From time to time, I've needed help with equipment or have a question and everyone has been most helpful. The facility is exceptionally clean with no gym odor whatsoever. I truly hate the gym smell and I don't know exactly how they do it, but the ventilation and odor control must be superb. The equipment is very well maintained. I reported that one of the recumbent ellipticals wasn't working and someone was there within 5 minutes to fix it. Due to my physical limitations, most of the classes are off limits to me. (My neurosurgeon said "No pickleball or sky diving"). The personal training has been first rate. I dislike swimming, so while I watch people doing laps and just handing out in the indoor pool, I have no personal experience. I am on Medicare and get this gym free through United Healthcare Supplement as a benefit. It is about 20 minutes from my house. Other gyms were closer but not nearly as well appointed or clean. In addition to the distance, another trade off here is limited hours for those using Medicare. Entrance times: M-F 9:30 to 3, Sat after 2 and all day Sunday. Now if you come in at 3 on a Tuesday, you can stay as long as you want, but you have to be there by 3. I don't know what it is like to do an entire work out after work or in the evening although when I've stayed past three it's clearly starts getting more crowded. Since it's free, I don't have to assess a value vs benefit. It's an expensive, high end gym. There's another gym, also free, within walking distance. I'd rather drive 20 mins. Then again, I'm retired. I like working out on the weight equipment and recumbent elliptical bicycle. It's been incredibly helpful I have so many equipment options so I can find things that work for my specific circumstances. And as I have gotten stronger, more equipment is available. Personally if you have the money, I'd definitely at least tour one of the Life Time facilities.

    They've done it again! Basketball court has been close since March 22 for 'renovations' and the…read morepickleball courts are closed too. It's now the end of April, and as you might have guessed, the Life Time which can never finish any maintenance work, has once again failed to deliver.

    I'm rating this based on a tour I took with some clients so they could take part in the fitness and…read morewhat the Y has to offer. I used come here as a kid and though it hasn't changed much, it looks well maintained and offer a lot in the way of programming which is nice. The tour included looking at all the treadmill room, locker room, pool, gym and weight room. With the resurgence of big name gyms like Blink, Power Fitness and even local ones like Coloseum this to me makes them blush with a comparable membership price but offering so much. The sign up process was fine, though they only accept direct withdrawals from a bank account which is kinda disappointing but hence the drop in star but the staff all seemed to be very friendly and they accomodate adults, children groups of people with disabliities as well as seniors looking to play 'pickle ball'. It brought back memories coming here and I'm glad its still around, serving the area all these servoces that a lot of other places would either be higher or wouldn't offer all under the same roof.

    Used to work out for the last 6 years at Blink Fitness before moving to West Orange and settling…read moreinto YMCA for the last year. My boyfriend who I signed up with using the 20/20 referral program was adamant about trying to find a gym with extra amenities such as a pool and basketball court in which I agreed to. I come to work out around 3-4 times a week at this location and here are my thoughts. Parking can be tough if you come during peak times such as after work and weekends. The staff is friendly and they maintain the facilities cleanly and diligently. There are very restricted times and days you are able to come in for laps or shooting hoops so if you think you will sign up and go there as you please, that is unfortunately not the case.. While the basketball court area is nice and the pool is warm, the gym is pretty small and very congested. The lifting area is always dominated by males and you generally have to wait to use a lot of the popular machines. Collectively with the discount my boyfriend and I spend around $70 a month in the beginning of each month. Here is some important news, if you are looking to cancel your membership be sure to give them a full 30 days notice cause they is no such thing as a "cancellation fee" which I found to be really odd.

    Equinox Summit - Dirty towels all over the workout area

    I have been going to this Equinox for the past 4.5 years, ever since we moved from Manhattan to the…read moreNew Jersey suburbs, and it's great. We were looking at a few different towns, but I'm glad we wound up in Summit because I love going to this gym. Pros (which are significant): - Like a typical Equinox, it's large, clean, and well-maintained, with all the usual amenities (including the chilled, eucalyptus-scented towels). They wipe down the mats well in between classes. - It's less crowded than the Manhattan locations I used to frequent. It's unusual to have to wait for equipment or a shower, etc. - The classes are great--and, honestly, the main reason to join Equinox (because if you need just a place to work out, there are cheaper options). I take practically everything (except spinning), and my favorite instructors include Kelsey, Michelle, and Jennifer. (John T. is also very good, but unlike the others, I think he still doesn't know my name, even though I've been doing his classes for years.) Renee does an excellent job overseeing the group-fitness program. - I haven't done much personal training here (it's expensive), but I did have a few good sessions with Marcus (and a friend of mine has been working happily with him for years now). - The Kids Club is a wonderful resource for parents. It's so nice to work out while someone watches your kids. It's $20 for two hours, but that's a bargain given the going rate for babysitting in Summit. - A while back, I complained about the lack of a juice/snack bar. Now they have one, courtesy of Essex Squeeze--and it's great! - I also previously mentioned the lack of built-in combination locks. Now they have them. Possible improvements (some admittedly minor, some not realistic): - I wish they had a larger stretching area or additional stretching areas; the one area they do have can get crowded. - They should check the treadmills more regularly to make sure they're in good working order; too frequently you'll encounter one that wobbles a little or makes weird noises. - A larger pool, heated to a higher temperature, would be nice. - The men's bathroom could use upgrading. There are only two stalls and two urinals. I wish the stall doors were the kind that went down to the floor and indicated whether the stall was occupied. They could also be cleaned more frequently. - I also wish they had some private all-gender bathrooms (like certain other Equinoxes). - Like every Equinox, they need to upgrade their toilet paper (Charmin Ultra Strong is the way to go). - I miss the old Kiehl's products. The Grown Alchemist cleanser doesn't lather or rinse off well, and its lotion doesn't get absorbed easily. (But replacing Kiehl's with Grown Alchemist was a company-wide decision.)

    When I first checked out Equinox, I honestly wasn't sure about joining. My first interaction with…read morean associate wasn't very clear, so I left feeling a little unsure. On my second visit though, Elle helped me out--she was super kind and really convinced me to go for it. At first, scheduling personal training was a bit rocky since my original trainer (I think Joseph Marcantonio) canceled last minute. But then I got paired with Emily, and honestly she's the sweetest and most amazing trainer. She made me feel comfortable right away and helped me build my routine from scratch. Even with a couple of bumps at the beginning, I'm really glad I joined. The staff is always friendly and attentive, and overall the experience has been worth it.
