Life Time

"I can’t believe how Lifetime fitness can build these new clubs and make the pool areas so dangerous with how slippery the surface is around the pool area. This is so scary for adults and especially for children. What were they thinking when they installed this slippery surface. I have talked to more people and they are going to cancel there memberships if Lifetime does not correct this problem. This is a total recipe for many many lawsuits in the making,"

"Life Time Southdale is the wonderland of fitness centers! The front desk staff is always so welcoming and friendly, with smiles and greetings each time we enter. It’s lovely. The pools are great: a cool temperature pool for swimming laps, a warm lap pool for kids to learn how to swim & to swim laps (adults too), and the center walk-in wading pool for families & kids. The family changing room area is nice. Plenty of towels are available, with shampoo, conditioner, body wash & lotion. I highly recommend."

"this gym absolutely sucks. the equipment is your very basic equipment you could find in literally any gym. definitely not worth the high price tag. their classes are absolutely worthless- they do not listen to clients needs or desires in regards to classes and have bare minimum offerings at awkward times. this lifetime in particular (edina) has the worst offerings of all. not to mention their recovery center is absolute trash. the “hydro massage” is literally just water jets that go in a straight line up and down your back- theres no other settings- even LA Fitness has a better massage chair than this! the cryo bed is absolutely worthless and they only provide cold dipping baths in the MENS locker room and totally disregard providing this to women. the accupressure is very meh. and the hours of the recovery area are very minumum apparently bc “they dont have the staff” - well hire more? not my problem- especially considering how much we pay to ho here, clearly providing value is not their top priority. literally not worth your money- i highly reccomend going to one of the many other great fitness spots in town- where they actually have knowledgable instructors- every class ive gone to has totally sucked and not been worth my time. conceited staff who barely cares. everything about this gym is extremely bare minumum."

"Review of pool area: Two pools (family/adults), both about 4 ft deep with step entry. There's also a separate section for outdoor food/drinks at the bistro or you can order from your phone and have food delivered to you. Cabanas available for rental but note these are set away from the actual pools. Great rooftop overall but if you're looking to actually swim, I would suggest other locations like savage or Chan."

"I love this gym. I don’t pay as much because I signed up prior to this club opening, so that’s nice. It can get a little crowded in the free weights and machines area, but not usually too bad. Lockers rooms are not very big, but it hasn’t even really been a huge problem for me, I can always find a locker. That’s just a characteristic of the gym that can’t really change. Facilities are beautiful. In general the staff is excellent. They really treat you as diamond members. The rooftop pool is beautiful. This year the rooftop pool staff i think has improved significantly. Much more attentive this year. The only thing I’d change is make the rooftop pools a little warmer, but that’s a personal preference."
