I hope this gets resolved because I wouldn't trust using and bathing in the woman's locker room.

I like the stair masters because they are all working. However, they are lined up in front of a beautiful picturesque window. While stepping on the machine, I see the top of the windows. The worse part of exercise in front of a TV, my face is less than 3 feet from the TV monitor. What the hell? I don't want to get a tan while working on my legs. It's hot as is. The gym was closed from September 30th to October 19th, 2025. When it opened on October 20th, there were not many people for about a week. Now, it's very crowded. I had been going to the Dairy Ashford location and the park for my daily exercise during this time. Because it's a 24 hour gym, it doesn't mean it's a bus station or travel center for everyone to take shower and sleep here at night. I noticed a man on his wheelchair always parked next to the first row of treadmills. OMG. I had to walk around the mirror pillar to pass that point with incoming traffic. Sometimes, other spaces are taken because they put too many machines between the pillars. Management, it's either ask the man to sleep somewhere else, go home or remove one treadmill. He is there every night I workout after 11 pm. Not sure if he lives there or waiting for his ride to finish working out or whatever excuse it is. I wasn't too concerned at first. But it's getting annoyed. I have seen other homeless people visiting the gym before. They don't bother other people but their stink cause a lot of anxiety in the locker room. Well... rant over.

Unlike big-box gyms where you're stuck waiting for equipment, Uptown Fitness offers a well-maintained, efficient space that allows you to focus on your workout without the hassle. My trainer has been an absolute game-changer in my fitness journey. Every session is challenging yet rewarding, and I always leave feeling stronger and more accomplished. Ask for MAL.

It's a fitness dedicated environment not a "see & be seen" environment. Ideal for anyone dedicated to improving their physique safely & significantly.

I come from a ballet & Pilates background (certified in teaching Pilates) and need to rebuild lost muscle mass from age & injury so I really appreciate the quality of training and the knowledge Dewayne possesses to prevent me from injuring myself.

Members are allowed to bring children in strollers and toddlers on the floor, moving with the member from machine to machine. At times, the noise level is a distraction at best, with certain members and trainers being abnormally loud, showing little to no concern for general courtesy. Some members do not use lockers, leaving their clothes and gym bags scattered in the dressing area. Seriously, there are better gyms in the area.

I had a very disturbing experience at Life Time Fitness. While I was working out, someone opened my…read morelocker, stole my bag, and left all my other belongings inside. This happened within a few hours, during my time at the gym. I reported it to Maribel, who is in charge of the women's locker keys. Her response was deeply disappointing -- she told me I could call the police, but that they probably wouldn't do anything. That kind of comment from someone with access to the locker system made me feel completely unsupported. The manager on duty offered to check the security cameras the following day, but there was no immediate action, no urgency, and no sense of real accountability. For a gym that advertises itself as a premium facility, this was a completely unacceptable experience. I left feeling vulnerable, frustrated, and unprotected. I do not recommend Life Time Fitness if you value your safety, your belongings, or expect to be taken seriously when something like this happens. What happened to me could easily happen to you.

Every time I've been here, there are no more than 10 people total, including staff! Which btw, all the staff is super sweet and wonderful. The gym itself is so clean and pristine. Parking is plentiful.

I also like the weight room as it has an impressive selection of smith machines and cardio equipment such as the treadmills which have fans incorporated into their machines. There are 3 things I have noticed that I don't like: 1. the weight room doesn't have a bench that allows you to do workouts in declined mode and the staff wouldn't let me donate a commercial bench with that option. so Declined DB or BB press cannot be done which is strange as it is offered at most corporate gyms. 2. DB selections for the most common weights sets such as 10-25 lb are lacking with only 1 set of DB weights per designated weight for a gym that might have 15 people working out in free weight room (the very least offer *3 sets of 12 lb dumbbells). 3. the men's locker rooms wooden benches and the three leather seats by the tv are stinky dirty and we know this bc every-time I placed my towel on the seats or the bench to change out of my clothes; this foul smell is left on the towel. The smell is so potent that it transfers to my gym bag like trash left out on the sun for several days and I find myself having to wash the towel and the gym bag just to get the homeless stench off. I have learned to avoid the men's locker room like a plague and instead use the lockers found across the gym to put my belongings.

I generally can go at any time & get a lane without having to wait. I have a lane to myself more often than I have to share. I highly recommend the Y summer day camp. I don't have kids, but the Y has lots of activities for kids & seniors as well!

Not realizing how large the city of Houston is, this was quite a drive for me to get to from where…read moreI was staying, and I speak for someone who is not familiar with the city-much less Texas-at all. Since I mapped it out beforehand, I knew where to park and how to get to the gym. This was a fairly large shopping area, but EQX was right there, and the desk is there in front once you enter. There was a really nice girl this day with long braids, and she directed me upstairs to the locker room and informed me that parking validation was not necessary at this time; the gate just went up as you pulled up to it. Perfect! After going upstairs, I did wander around and then a trainer directed me over to the locker room, which was spacious and very clean. The fitness floor is on the second, and as soon as I found the treadmills, I knew where I belonged. Light movement in the stretching area after, and then back to a shower with decent water pressure. What I was fascinated with was how friendly staff was. Trainers actually smiled and said goodbye which you won't normally see in California or New York. I certainly wasn't at home! Compared to other locations, this one was very low-key, although I admit I came during the afternoon where it was probably quieter. I had forgotten this is the location that I was in contact with back in 2020 when I had ordered some masks from their shop since they were actually open. I had such a good experience that the trip here to see them in person was worth it!

The gym equipment is a bit outdated though. I do like the fact that they offer cold towels post-workout to cool off. For the Spa treatment, I got the Hydrafacial 50 Min - Deluxe. For a first timer, you can also receive a 25% discount as well. Kristen was my esthetician and she was truly the best! You could tell that she was very experienced. She was very knowledgeable about all of the products and the facial itself was very relaxing. Really enjoyed the lymphatic drainage the most, she had my face looking snatched and jawline on point and skin truly glowing. 100% recommend booking her for a facial!
