I'm not going to lie at times it's packed and the equipment isn't working properly. They do have lockers and showers, however I can't speak to that because I don't use them. The assistant manager Mike is a sweetheart and really gets things done. I do feel they should offer more classes for people who work full time and want to go at say 6:30 PM. Otherwise offer other classes at 6 AM. Shout out to Lisa, Teresa, Michelle and Anthony!!!

This gym has been a frustrating experience. It's often stressful to be here, largely due to poor…read morecustomer service run by people with very limited training in handling clients. The best part of the gym is the front area with the heavy bags and functional training equipment. Unfortunately, it's consistently closed off during peak hours for personal training sessions or group classes with loud music that the entire gym must endure. Even when only half the space is being used, the rest of us are still blocked from using any of the equipment. At this point, it feels like members only get access to half the gym -- maybe that should come with a reduced price.

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.

However, Nicole made me feel right at home and more at ease. I attended the Hot Powerflow Fusion class which is challenging but not impossible by any means.You just have to take things at your own pace and Nicole continued to make that clear throughout the class. However, the one thing that I did notice is that there are a lot of regulars here and because of that, there isn't really much guidance at the beginning of class as far as how to set up your equipment, etc (or even what equipment is needed/where to get it). It was all easy enough to find in the closets but would have been nice to have known in advance. I felt really great leaving the studio, this class definitely left my mind very sharp and my body feeling sore but accomplished the next day. I would recommend this for both newbies and experienced hot yoga practitioners.

This place has a great "family vibe" and everybody encourages everybody to do their best! The programming is excellent and completely scalable to meet your level.

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.
