Life Time

Great gym, very clean. Lots of extras that most gyms don't have. i.e. indoor and outdoor pools, massage, salon, fresh food Cafe.

Joined just because my husband wanted to go and I think the classes and pool are more than worth it. It's great to have a snack bar as well. I can stay here for hours.

Gym is great and my kids did wonderful in their swim classes before covid. I wanted to sign back up for swim but not the gym. The front desk said I could but the swim office said I couldn't without being a member. Thanks for making us go spend our money else where.

I’ve been going to this gym on and off for about 13 years. It’s been one of my favorite places to exercise and relax. One of my favorite things about this gym was the 24-hour access, and the studio rooms being available for privacy while doing body weight exercises, or trying out new workouts when other classes weren’t in-session. There is now no 24-hour access and no open studios in the evenings for member use. I didn’t mind the price before because of all the amazing perks of the membership, but now that there is no 24/7 access and no privacy to be found anywhere, even in the late hours before the gym closes, and I am rethinking if it’s actually worth it. I understand covid has had an impact on many places, but for the prices to not have changed very much, and to also be given less perks than before, it is very irritating. Also, the wooden seating in the dry saunas need sanding or something. I pulled a splinter out of my thigh the other night after using the sauna. For now I will keep my membership for the towels that are provided, because I hated having to bring my own to other gyms, but I feel generally dissatisfied with the way my favorite gym is functioning.

My experience with this Life Time location has been refreshing. Specifically today. The customer/employee interaction was pretty remarkable. My daughter and I were practicing volleyball in the gym. A staff member Deasian ( that may be misspelled) introduced herself and engaged us through sharing her college athletic experience in volleyball. She pointed out a few fundamentals and areas of improvement. And briefly interacted with my daughter. Very genuine and very passionate about teaching others.I can appreciate Life Time more getting a little peak into the culture.

Lifetime fitness is more of a resort than a fitness club. It's massive and immaculately detailed in every way. No matter what it is you love to do in order to workout and reach your fitness goals, they will 100% have it, and a lot of it. No other fitness club can really compare to it unless you're inside of a luxury resort.PROS -There are more pros when it comes to this facility then I could probably list in one review. It is a huge place. Want to swim? They've got a total of three huge pools, one being an outside pool that includes a huge water slide.The actual equipment and training facility is also massive. Any piece of equipment that is your preference will have at least three variations of it. I like this because I don't like working out directly close to another person, as it can be awkward for me. So the fact that they have so much equipment and so many options is a great thing.They also have so many different classes and other benefits that are completely free. They give you a free fitness assessment once you sign up, so that they can help you reach those goals that you may have.One of my favorite things is that they have a fully stocked locker room that includes showers, your own locker to leave bags or whatever you come in with, and also rags, towels, deodorant, lotions and whatever else you could need. It's truly amazing once you get there and realize all the options they provide you with.I also love the fact that they have two huge full basketball courts. Other fitness clubs have basketball courts that stay full, because it's generally only one Court. Here you always have the room to shoot around and play a little basketball as both courts are never completely full. It's a great place to go and practice. Also there is a huge rock climbing wall that is right there next to the courts.The service is also top notch and very consistent. They're always right there to help you, very courteous. Also I love the hours, as they are open until midnight daily, and only closed for 4 hours as they open back up at 4:00 a.m. (pre-pandemic they were open for 24 hours)CONS - as you would probably expect being a member at a place with so many options and accommodations, IT'S NOT GOING TO BE CHEAP 😂And it certainly is not cheap. For a person with a family like myself, I wish they had more options and better plans that are more diverse. For a family of four you're going to be spending $250 a month for membership. That could be considered a value based on the fact that one person has to pay $100 per month, and every other person that joins your membership will be able to do so for only $50 per month additionally.Needless to say, you have to really be committed to your fitness goals and staying healthy in order to justify that type of money monthly, especially as costs are rising across the board on everything.Another thing to consider is that they don't have a lot of locations. So unless you're within a reasonable distance of the three locations they have in the Metro Atlanta area, it might not make sense for you. When I initially signed up I thought that the 20 minute commute would be worth it based on how nice and immaculate the club is. But with rising fuel costs and other things to consider, I found myself not going as much. Then at that point I'm having to decide "is this really worth the money I'm spending to come here?" The answer to that question will be different for every person I'm sure. But, the locations will still be something to consider unless you're close by.Lifetime fitness does not offer a trial period like some other fitness clubs do, and I understand why. But if you're looking to try them out in order to see how well you like them, try going there about 10 days ahead of the next month.

Been a member for over 15 years and this site has been in a steep decline the last few months. Any facility is going to have ups and down and Mountain Brook has had its ebbs and flows but it is in its worst condition in 17 years and getting worse.Water fountains are finally turned back on, but water is warm in most of them. Spas have been closed frequently and after being closed for a full 2 days the site finally sent an email out saying they would now be closed for maintenance. In other words it was broken and they tried to hide it for a few days before pretending it was intentional. Half the lockers have had their keys lost or stolen and can't be used. Bathroom sinks have such poor water pressure it takes around 90 seconds to fill a 16oz bottle (yep... I counted) and the low-flow showers make it very hard to get clean. In spite of regular long lines on the basketball court, they decided to tear one up. Literally covered the nice hardwood polished court with... drum-roll... asphalt. Can't make this up. The 4 squash courts have very little use (at least compared to the basketball courts) and they have begun cracking down on anyone who uses them to play racquetball. Food quality has dropped a bit since covid (which to a degree is understandable) but for $15 dollars you barely get 300 calories in your burrito which tastes like a gas station wrap. The list goes on, but the point is this facility used to be known for its high quality, comfortable exercise environment yet has begun neglecting members in attempts to squeeze extra funds. They promised to be a 24/7 facility when they opened yet dropped their hours (closing especially early on Sundays). The last few weeks I have noticed the later it gets, the less cleaning supplies there are. Most the cleaning wipes in popular areas are almost always gone by the evening (the do still have regular spray bottles and paper towels).The redeeming quality is the staff and the reason this is a 2 star instead of a 1 star. The team members there are top-notch. They couldn't be more kind, encouraged to communicate with members and helpful. They are keeping that place in business in spite of the execs. Even at 11:00PM when the site is starting to wind down for the night they are working hard right till closing.Sadly, As of the middle 2022, Lifetime Mountainbrook is not worth the cost at all.

I have been going here on and off for about a decade. I have been to several gyms all across Atlanta and this is the best gym of all time. Amenities and machines are top of the line and well maintained. Employees are professional, friendly, and take pride in their work. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Life Time is more than a gym, it's a full body experience. The whole place has a luxurious spa-like feel. It features an actual spa, an expansive indoor pool with multiple saunas and large hot tubs, a generous and roomy outdoor pool with dedicated walk-in children's area, slides, and lap lanes, several sports courts for pickleball, basketball, and squash/racquetball, a climbing wall, a huge weightlifting floor with multiple options for the same muscle groups/movements, a friendly and judgement-free environment, luxurious locker rooms, tons of group fitness areas (fitness classes, spin, pilates, yoga), and probably more things that I'm missing. The staff is friendly and will make you feel like family. Somehow the manager, Pat, seems to remember the names of every single member. It's actually astonishing. I was paired with a great trainer who is sensitive to my special needs, and the other trainers also seem good--they're always focused on their clients. It's always easy to find a trainer or staff member for help or to ask questions. Group fitness instructors are extremely energetic...too much for me, personally, but they're inspirational and helpful, clearly experts in their fields. There's tons of options for classes and group fitness and I love that I can reserve assigned spots in the app. This place is well worth the price if you want a one stop shop for all things active.

The lockers at this location are really annoying, I don’t understand why they don’t use combination locks like at the other lifetime locations. Also, the steam rooms are gross with hair everywhere from never being hosed down. The floors and surface areas in general could be a lot cleaner. One good improvement is that they finally give you conditioner in the women’s showers. Also it’s good that they’re monitoring guests in the outdoor pool area, and being respectful to year round loyal members. As for the classes, they’re all good except for kickboxing. The class is a joke. It is actually a dance class and makes a mockery of real kickboxing. The instructor is has horrible form and looks like she’s doing a chicken dance when doing punches. Please call this class something else but do not call it kickboxing.
