These areas feel worn, used, rickety, and outdated. They do not reflect the quality expected from an Ochsner facility. I moved and as a result needed a closer gym, so I switched from Club4 to this gym, and it is a noticeable downgrade which is extremely unfortunate.

Or that turns the AC off when they leave? Workers who don't care who comes in and out without a key? Then you have picked the perfect gym to join. They don't have workers there overnight but get mad that people let their friends in. I mean your workers already let people go in without a key and with their friends and have the nerve to get mad about that? Maybe if your workers would have did their job in the first place and spoke up it would have never gotten to where it is now. HIRE NEW PEOPLE AND OVERNIGHT! But also hire someone so people can feel SAFE! When women are at the gym and there's a bunch of men they don't feel comfortable and are sometimes afraid to walk to their car especially when there is nobody at the gym. It is not the peoples fault for YOUR workers poor job performance. The owner comes and does NOT even clean the place up. STOP having so much pride also to the owners . Let someone else also come in and try to help get the place running better like the guy who wanted to buy half of the gym and get new equipment for the place. There should also not be kids running around the gym while people are working out or teenagers just hanging around sitting. The kids can hurt and also the teenagers get in the way of people who do want to work out. Before you try to sit here and make it all the people is fault it all BEGINS WITH THE INSIDE OF THE WORK PLACE !!!

I went in as a full-time student from Nunez seeking a month-to-month non-annual and no obligation…read moreplan. I told them I was broke and couldn't afford any contractual obligations because of my student status. Short, buff guy with a shaved head who both works and works-out here says that's fine; I put up like $103 split 50/50, first month up-front and my second month was insurance OR collateral to pay for that last month if I couldn't afford another month and then he proceeded to say that it was also fine, my account would fall into inactivity and I could just come back and pay when I want because I wasn't under contract AND WOULD NOT INCUR CHARGES! I am now $250 in debt to this gym, somehow, without signing a contract. I am going to cancel my membership today and I refuse to pay the bill due to unethical malpractice. The absolute BEST part is how you can't cancel your service remotely regardless of the information you can provide i.e: social security, birth certificate, etc. I live on the Westbank and must go to Chalmette to cancel, in the flesh; obviously another racket by Prestige to discourage you to appear so they can charge you behind the scenes! They refused to even let me freeze my account unless I appeared physically in-the-skin. I refuse to pay Prestige despite whatever collection agency they send. Try me.

This gym is the opposite of that crap. It is reasonably priced and no weird hidden fees or restrictions, equipment is in great condition, staff is super nice and the access code allowed me to go whenever works for my schedule. I loved this gym so much and was sad to leave it. Is this type of business model for gyms old school? If so - lets bring it back! Thank you 504 fitness!

For the past couple of years, I've enjoyed the student rate that they offer; it's very affordable and comes with access to all the classes as well as the pool. There's something for everyone here, and they frequently have events. It seems a lot of them are catered to the geriatric crowd, but that is also a large percentage of the members here. Not too fancy, not too outdated. It's worth it for my current needs.

I suggest not to get a membership for just the pool too due to the old lady at the front desk…read moretelling members you get a reduced membership for august since the hours are limited because the lifeguards go back to schoo. I inquired about why do adults need a lifeguard OH I FORGOT ADULTS ARE LIKE KIDS NO COMMON SENSE. IF ADULTS CAN'T SWIM STAY IN THE SHALLOW END OF THE. Plus during the summer on the weekdays they stay open till 8pm yet on weekends close super early why not open for the hottest part of the day instead of really early people like to sleep in on weekend. Then during the summer my child who has adhd and autism was yelled at by a lifeguard duh it's a pool you're going to get splashed you don't like it leave. I couldn't tell you how many times a grown parent kicked me in the head but i didn't complain things happe. CAN WE SAY DUMB LIFEGUARD plus they are racist my family tried asking for the soft football and the lifeguards act like they don't know what a football is and ends up giving it to another family. they don't even take into consideration how many days we couldn't go swimming cause of the weather and they don't reopen after the 39 minute wait with no thunder or lightning in the area. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON THIS PLACE. ALL THEY ABOUT IS STEALING YOUR MONEY!!!! Traci

For years and years I went to Elmwood fitness, which I loved. Then I moved and got married and…read moresuddenly Elmwood was 30 minutes away. That's 30 soul crushing minutes when you're trying to psych yourself up to do some exercise. I had to let Elmwood go. My needs in a gym are simple, yet for some reason most gyms can't meet them. I need a variety of heavy things that I can pick up and various things to rack them on. That's it. No fancy machines, no step classes, no life coaches. Fit for Life has (more than) a ton of weights. The have plates, dumbbells, kettles and weighted bars. They have benches of all inclines and declines. A squat rack, a bench rack, a curl rack, a rack rack and, just for the hell of it, a completely adjustable rack. In addition to the stupid machines, they also have a nice heavy punching bag, a good selection of medicine balls, a bosu ball, a trampoline and those TRX things. There's rarely anyone in there, which blows my mind since it's only $30 a month. It's kept very clean, it has complimentary towels and the guy who works there goes out of his way to be helpful. It's a great gym. I took a star off because they don't have a water fountain.

It was clean tho. Free towels. I like that they have towels for cleaning equipment rather than wipes or paper towels. Will make this my go to gym when visiting NOLA in future.

It's an awesome no-frills gym for an unbeatable price…read more I used to go here when I lived nearby and hired a personal trainer (Coach Los and Tatyana - I think they may have moved since). It was the first time I learned how to use all of the machines, lift weights properly, and target specific areas. They even placed me in a small group for training when money was running tight. Everyone knew my name and gave me a warm welcome when I walked in. Coach Los and Tatyana truly changed my life by teaching me how to work out. My entire body changed and at first, I got extremely nervous because I got so muscular that my old clothes didn't fit anymore! But they talked me through it and explained that I was gainly much needed muscle and that gaining weight in my case was not a bad thing. I am so strong now and continue to use the techniques I learned from them when I lift. When I take flights and see someone struggling to get their luggage in the overhead, I just grab it and throw it up for them like I'm the Hulk!!!! : )
