I recently had the unfortunate experience of joining Lifetime Fitness, and it has been quite disappointing. One of the first issues I encountered was the unexpected price hikes; it seems like every few months, the membership fees are increased without any tangible improvements in services or facilities. Cleanliness is a basic expectation for any gym, yet Lifetime Fitness falls short in this department. The locker rooms and showers are often unkempt, with litter and unpleasant odors being common occurrences. Another major downside is the attitude of the staff. On several occasions, I’ve encountered rude and unhelpful employees who seem more interested in chatting among themselves than assisting members. The amenities, which are a significant reason for choosing a gym, are frequently closed for "maintenance." This has become more of a norm than an exception. If the amenities are consistently unavailable, members should be entitled to a refund or some form of compensation. Lastly, the gym is consistently overcrowded. Finding an available machine or space for a workout can be a challenge at any time of day. Between the constant price increases, lack of cleanliness, unfriendly staff, unavailable amenities, and overcrowding, it’s hard to justify continuing a membership here. I hope the management takes these concerns seriously and makes improvements for the benefit of all members. Until then, I would advise potential members to consider other options.

I’m a member of Lifetime living in Miami and came here while traveling. There are a few impressive aspects of this location like the full basketball and squash courts, lap pools etc that I’m not used to. However, one thing that completely shocked me was the sauna. That’s usually one of my favorite parts of my day and workout wind down, but this was not a relaxing or enjoyable environment. In my home studio, it is tranquil, dark, quiet, and respectful: many people are there to relax. Here all of the lights are on (?) it is a bit dirty-seeming, and EVERYONE was talking, at a normal outside voice volume! It may just be me, but that is enough for me to not want to join a studio. Thankful to be back in my home studio in the quiet dark sauna while writing this 😅

Came in for a tour. The level of disinterest in customer service or appreciation was very telling to the quality of the experience one would have here. The feeling is definitely that they are so big that a member is just a number. Not what I would expect for a club calling itself luxury in name and price.

Life Time fitness center is a great place for all ages There are 3 floors with new equipment and lots of amenities. They also have a Life Spa with stylists, barbers, nail technicians, estheticians and massage therapists. Large parking lot. Saturday was not busy when I went, especially in the afternoon.

This gym used to be awesome and tailored for people actually interested in fitness. Now all Lifetime wants to do is become a pickleball senior citizen center. They're removing all basketball courts at this location, leave weightlifting equipment broken for extended periods of time, and the locker rooms at this one are frequently dirty with overflowing towel bins. On top of that, the staff is extremely rude, and doesn't care about your experience. Complete waste of money for what you pay. Bring back 2019 Lifetime. There are already 500 people that have signed this petition. The new GM at Lifetime clearly has an agenda based of forcing out members that he doesn't want there.

I can’t say enough great things about this gym! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at home. Alba, the manager, was the one who signed me up, and she made the process so easy and enjoyable. Her positive energy is contagious, and she’s always a cheerful face I look forward to seeing when I come to work out. The facility itself is fantastic—spacious, clean, and filled with good vibes. The energy here is uplifting, and it keeps me motivated every time. My favorite way to end a workout session is to relax in the sauna, which is the perfect way to unwind and recharge. If you’re looking for a place that feels like a true community, this is the spot! Highly recommended!

I’ve been a member here for a little less than a year, and I absolutely love this gym! It’s spacious and has a great vibe, and everyone here is genuinely nice, which makes it feel like a true community. The staff is fantastic—always friendly and ready to help out. The equipment is top-notch, so I always have everything I need for a solid workout. The amenities are a huge plus, too; I especially appreciate the cryotherapy and sauna for recovery. And with plenty of parking, it’s super convenient to get in and out. This place really has everything I could ask for in a gym.

Came to this club after BSC Westborough closed and it was the best club in the area hands down. The facility is fantastic with a ton of machines and weights that allows you to get your work done quick and easy even during busy hours. The staff is always friendly and it is definitely the place you want to work out in the Framingham area.

Loved it. Great equipment, friendly members, great staff, good music. Inclusive community. Extra points for an ergonomic bench press. Great for posing practice. Convenient location. Minor suggestions for improvement: Don’t let the temp get above 70. Provide a barbell overhead press setup. If I lived nearby, I would still go here. Best gym in MetroWest. Miss you guys!

I have been a member of Club Elevate for about 3 years. Some of the top reasons that I love working out here is that it’s never too crowded and there is lots of space everywhere!! The ceiling heights are huge and there are so many areas to workout! I have worked out at several other gyms (even in Los Angeles) and I only get this “good feeling” at Club Elevate!! @clubelevate @andrienzanier

Really happy with Anytime Fitness in Framingham. Convenient - it's open 24 hrs. Clean - the staff keeps the place clean and members wipe down equipment. Comfortable - big enough to do everything you want, small enough to not get distracted. Efficient - rarely do I have to wait for a machine or treadmill. Bonus - it's next to the supermarket in case you need a post-workout snack. Kelsey the manager is great, go talk to her if you're interested in joining.

My wife and I switched over from another Anytime Fitness gym earlier this year. The manager and her trainer left so Kelsey took over and she is a wonderful person. She is very caring also very enthusiastic and she’s also very respectful to all her members. My wife and I have grown to love Kelsey as a veteran. she knows that I deal with PTSD most people don’t get it, but Kelsey does whoever picked her as a manager for this location did a great job by hiring Kelsey because there’s nothing that Kelsey won’t do for you either. it might be a small gym to exercise at but Kelsey has a lot of love for people, including she’s very much an encourager so I highly recommend Jim to anyone that wants to be a part of it because I start just a place to exercise it’s a family. She’s a great young lady.

I’m traveling 7 states for the 2nd year doing a Health & Wellness tour and stopped in to find A+ customer service and a clean gym. Management is all Service and professionalism. I’ve visited over 25 locations and I know a good Anytime Fitness when I see one. I will be back next Year when I’m in town.

I did the 6 week challenge here which I won I couldn’t have done it without the trainers Chrissy, Sydney, Patrick, and Petra. This gym has honestly the best trainers and I truly felt welcomed here and the positivity of the trainers really helped me succeed. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who wants to better themselves while surrounding yourself with truly positive people. Chrissy will push you hard in the best way possible, and you will thank her afterwards and Sydney never ever made me feel bad about myself and was very patient with me throughout every workout. I couldn’t thank them enough. Amazing gym & amazing people. Don’t even think about it just sign up to this gym already!!

I've been lifting 25 years and have never experienced a place like this. The owner's passion is reflected in every aspect of this gym! Machines to hit every muscle at every angle with new equipment frequently added, four separate free weight areas, new chome XMaster weights/plates, and there's some cardio equipment if that's your thing. The atmosphere is vibrant, with paintings, led lights, great sound system, and everyone so far is friendly and supportive. The owner, Alan, is there pretty much every day and takes the time to personally ensure client satisfaction. There's no tanning or massage, but I can just use my girlfriend's PF membership for that. This place for me and many others is home away from home.

I’ve been working out at Olympus Fitness for the past 10 months, and I can’t say enough good things about this gym! My trainer, Alan, who also owns the gym, is an amazing coach and bodybuilder. His knowledge and motivation have made all the difference in my fitness journey. The gym itself is fantastic – the atmosphere is welcoming, the equipment is top-notch, and many of the machines are ones you won’t find anywhere else. The pricing is fair, the environment is friendly, and it never feels overcrowded. It’s a place where everyone knows each other, making it a great community to be a part of. One of the best things about Olympus Fitness is how Instagram-worthy it is! The decor and lighting are perfect for capturing your progress. Plus, they have Gabriel, who creates incredible workout videos that really capture the intensity of your sessions. If you’re looking for a gym that has it all – excellent training, a great vibe, and a community feel – Olympus Fitness is the place to be!
