I will say that I like the kid's club and the front desk lady. I've been to a lot of gyms in my life. This gym for sure has the least up-to-date equipment I have ever used. Everything about this gym's equipment is just genuinely old and crummy. I mentioned to management that their pool is unbearably cold. The kids that were getting in the pool (on several occasions) were getting blue lips and it just seemed to get colder as the months went on and my youngest refused to get in anymore. Old people would get in the pool and just say, "Sure is miserable, isn't it?" Management told me that the pool temp was optimal and that basically I just need to deal with it. A week later they are replacing a water pump in the pool. It's just a really disrespectful management atmosphere. My husband's father died and we were going to be out of state for two weeks and since this gym is SO expensive, I asked if we could get some sort of refund or credit while we were gone. They told me "no sorry" and that was it. I told them that I have never had a gym treat death in a family so lightly and how cruel that is. It was only after having to remind them to treat people right that they decided maybe they could put our account on hold for two weeks. Like, how on earth have they gotten that low that they weren't willing to offer that without hesitation initially? Very unfortunate and just so cocky. This gym is SOOOOOO much more expensive than any gym in the area and just doesn't make sense how they can be so cocky and rude when their gym really is the oldest and crummiest gym I've ever been to. Their classes are pretty good but the yoga room is so cramped that it makes class squishy a lot and the speakers in the room are so old that they break a lot. It's really something. I think young moms get taken advantage of the most because a one-year-old that can be in the kids' club for an hour costs just as much as a 17-year-old child that could go to the gym all day, every day. I'm planning on going to the Marshall White Center that's opening back up soon and I think a lot of young moms will come with me because this gym is WAY too expensive for what you actually get out of the facility. read more

If you just want to hang out and meet people. Not a bad gym. If you want to work out on decent and functional equipment with adequate WiFi and climate control this place isn't for you. I've been going to OAC for about 4 years, none of the equipment is the same brand, size, or similar in quality. It's a dated gym and half the time, machines or equipment are broken. When they do repair they its usually very poor quality. It's a very dated gym and the average cost of a membership is about 50% more than local gyms. It takes a long time for equipment to be repaired and they have more "don't do this" signs than anything I've ever seen. Things like, "dont use your phone" "don't wear sandals" Dont move this, don't move that etc. I really enjoyed the members, everyone is very nice and super friendly. The only real upside is that the kid care is AWESOME. The staff is very friendly, and they have a free area where older kids can just chill and watch movie. Great for the summer. They always have different crafts for the kids to do too. That's why they get 2 stars not 1. read more

Toured this club and it is very nice: good vibes and facilities. Unfortunately, it's just a little too remote to make it convenient from North Ogden. On the other hand, I just met a woman from So. Ogden that lives much closer to it, so maybe I will add this to the other gym membership that I have, if I'm in that area a lot. Fingers crossed! read more

Nestled in a valley all roads lead here and the oasis from Utah's high desert refurbishes souls to face the hells of life's challenges. Jan the GM for 30 years has established a brand that embellishes all hides in her barnyard. Kindness is the rooster that rules the coop exemplified when the whistle blows mid afternoon poolside and Jackfrost spreads magical treats. Tony is getting my 52 years young body to mirror my 15 year old mind through cardio inspirational tennis on Friday. Ray who used to sell cars with his poster boy smile now introduces you to the benefits of membership. read more

I been with this club for over 3 years. Put my account on hold for almost a year charging me $10.00 fee a month,thinking I will be back. I just can't do it too busy. I called to canceled my membership and needed me to do it in writing,and on top of that charging me half of my monthly fee($50.00+). WHAT A RIP OFF Don't recommend this club at all. read more

We've signed up for swim lessons through the Ogden athletic club. The first day of each session has been very disappointing , as they had failure to communicate with their staff. My 12-year-old daughter was in the same class as my 7 year old son , with 10 other children and learned nothing. It's been several months now, and I'm still trying to get reimbursed for that day. I had to talk to the director after the second day, and they did better for the remaining 4 days, but I still feel like it was a completely overpriced experience, would appreciate being reimbursed. The Clearfield Aquatic Center is much better at swim lessons and organization if you're looking for a place for swim lessons. read more

New here, but my family loves this place. Best gym for families in Ogden. This place has everything from typical meat head gym equipment, to classes, the pool, to kids and teen entertainment. read more

There are way cheaper and nicer places to work out. My husband and I keep our membership here mostly out of convenience, we live down the street. I also love the yoga, Pilates, and other group classes. Aside from that much of the club is outdated and they just closed their juice and smoothie bar... disappointing. My step daughter has a membership at VASA with unlimited guest passes and I think I spend equal time at both, several days a week. If there was a VASA closer to our home I would likely switch. It's not a bad "club" but it's not great and definitely over priced. read more

I walked into the gym ready to work out, but felt ex discouraged due to the two girls working in the front. Four seconds after being inside that building I was greeted With a dirty look and snarky attitude. This was the most unprofessional experience I've had at this gym, but I hear many others I know have had very similar experience. read more

If you are twenty something, single, and looking to hit on somebody this definitely isn't your gym. There are way cheaper places to work out. The reason I love the Ogden Athletic club is that its extremely family friendly. The daycare is unbeatable. We pay $9.50 per month per child for unlimited day care. The staff is engaging and the kids have a lot to do I never find them parked in front of a TV. There is a special baby room, a toddler area, and activities for older children. For kids 8+ and teenagers there are special areas designated to play and work out. Its great to have a gym that embraces children and lets families keep up an active lifestyle together. The facility is huge. There are areas that are a bit tired looking but overall it is well kept, they offer a wide variety of classes, and the equipment is fine. Lots of places for tennis and swimming. I personally like the women only area. For my husband and I and our three children (in day care) we pay $130 per month. For us - its worth it because we attend 4-5 times per week. It is extremely close to our home and the good service and family atmosphere are great. If we didn't have kids I don't know that we'd pay this much for this gym. read more

This might be a good gym if you've had a contract grandfathered in since the 70's or if you have 7 teenage children and want a family membership. Otherwise it will cost you an arm and two legs to go here. As said in previous reviews, want to bring an infant and a 2 year old? All you need to do is add them to your membership for whatever a month that costs and then pay an additional $10 a month per child for daycare. A side note, the daycare is top notch and about the only thing that impresses me about this place. (I'd give the daycare and staff 5 stars if they were their own reviewable entity). My wife finally stopped going when I convinced her to try another Crossfit gym at less than half the cost of what we were paying at OAC. She put our membership on hold due to pregnancy, but when we finally decided to cancel for good: 1) they make it extremely difficult to cancel. Have to do it in person and 2 times when she tried there wasn't anyone there available to hear her say "we quit" 2) I somehow got stuck paying an additional $100 to cancel. They "can't" cancel a frozen membership, so you "have" to unfreeze, pay monthly dues, and then you can cancel. I know there aren't tons of options in South Ogden for gyms, which is why this highway robbery is able to persist, but it's a little ridiculous that on top of the thousands of dollars I had to shell out for my infants and toddlers to be "members" of this gym I had make multiple trips, in person only, to pay a $100 fee to cancel my membership. Never again. read more

If you really want to work out and receive excellent, friendly and personable customer service, then I suggest becoming a member here. I've been a member here for a couple of years now. I've also been a member at Gold's Gym, and I'm not a fan of that place. Gold's Gym (at least in this area) seems to be more of a show than anything. At the OAC people really work out. The OAC has lots of classes as well as Crossfit (though I generally work out on my own I've heard they are great). It does get a little busy in the morning and around 5:00, but I still prefer it over anywhere else. Definitely worth the money. read more

If you are looking for a place to swim or Tennis, you will like this place, if you are looking for a quality weight room and cardio center, you will hate this place. The free weights and exercise machines are rusty and old, the place is a mess and there are kids running around everywhere. I can't stress how bad the weight room is, the cardio room upstairs is okay, at best, the cardio machines downstairs are horrible. Go to a bigger name gym and get quality equipment. read more

I love the club, it's a nice break from all the meat heads at Gold's Gym. The best thing about the club is the boot camp that my wife and I attend in the morning. Becky, the trainer, puts us through hell and back and then some. I've never felt so good and sore at the same time. My wife and I absolutely love it and we hope to shave a few minutes off of our triathlon times this Spring. I highly recommend the club and Beck's boot camp. It's a lot of fun and something different every day. read more

I don't understand why my wife likes this place, but I can't stand it. It's a gym so you've got plenty of options for getting your fitness on. Why do I not like it then? Kids...just running around. When you see people drive up to the front of the building, kids run out and into the gym, then the parents drive off...its a bit of a turn off. What is this, a Chuck E Cheese? And they're not cheap- Main stream fitness places(gold's, etc.) are cheaper. No thanks. read more

Health clubs need to evolve to reflect the current interests of their clientele. Ogden Athletic Club has done a good job of this. They recently completed a $1m+ overhaul. You will always find club basics like free weights and weight machines but OAC has incorporated "smart" tech in their spin classes, CrossFit in house, and a summer-only membership option. Staff are known for their longevity and loyalty. This speaks volumes. read more

I've gone here for years. Compared to what it was before, the OAC has made great strides in excellence and improvement. They've renovated it so that it has nicer wooden floors, a clean environment, a better kids lounge, painted walls with likeable pictures, new equipment, improved locker rooms, and much more! Compared to other gyms, the OAC is unique and offers more than what others can offer including both an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, indoor/outdoor tennis courts, several free/paid classes to choose from (ie. Body Pump, Body Sculpt, swimming lessons, tennis lessons, Cross Fit, etc.) and plenty of other physical activities. Several water fountains and bathrooms are available in each area of the OAC. Much of the community like how close it is to them and how convenient it is to go work out (especially when it gets cold outside). The staff is friendly and many OAC members make friends with the instructors here. Every so often the OAC will throw events for both kids and adults. It's also near the splash pad (a popular place for events too) and an outdoor trail. There's almost too much to describe in one review! However, I'm pleased with the OAC and recommend getting a free tour to go check it out. :) read more

The Ogden Athletic club has a women's only work out room. They have tons of awesome classes and all their staff is great!!

I've been a member since the 70's. It's a great place to workout almost any way you want. It has everything from a large indoor and outdoor swimming pools to the regulation size basketball court to the classes. Can't think of anything the club doesn't have.I really like the sauna,steam and whirlpool to end a good workout. read more

Great classes! Positive, helpful, friendly atmosphere! Love the Bootcamp and the pool. Convenient, great hours. Clean, well-maintained, huge variety of equipment. Great place to workout! read more

You will love this place if you like meatheads, dim lighting and possibly the worst staff at any gym I have been a part of. My wife and I signed up for a year membership when we moved to South Ogden because it was close to our home and they had a pool. After 3 months of using the gym we were done. The pool was dirty, the crowd was obnoxious, and the times of classes didn't fit our schedule. Since we had signed up for the year we just decided to just let the membership run its course and run out in a year. The year came and went but then on my bank statement i noticed we were still being charged. My wife called and they stated it was part of what we signed up for, that after the first year you are then automatically enrolled in a month to month for the rest of forever. Something they conveniently forget to tell you at signing. After paying two extra months we already didn't want they had the audacity to claim we would owe cancellation fees in order to cancel and we must come in person to sign. After a week of phone calls back and forth they finally agreed to email the cancellation form. In that week of calls we were also told by upper management that because if the misunderstanding the termination fee would be waived. We sent back the form thinking that would be the end of it. We then found another charge this week. Again if you like meatheads, dim-lighting and they worst staff at any gym ever, please sign up for their "we-own-you-forever" plan. You'll love it. read more

I absolutely love the Ogden athletic club! There is so much to offer for all types of fitness needs. The atmosphere is great and staff is always friendly. Great place for kids to also be physically active. This club offers so much more than any other gym around. The indoor track, tons of fitness classes, indoor pool, and seasonal outdoor pool, tennis. It has everything. They offer a biggest loser program that I first joined last may. Karen the trainer is so amazing and is really there to push you and help you suceed in your goals. I lost 45lbs doing her program and am in the best shape I have ever been in. She is so personable and I felt her support through the whole program. I feel that way about the trainers and staff there. They truely are there to help assist in you physical and weight loss goals. I have been to gyms where as soon as you walk in the door you feel intimidated and almost not wanted unless you are already physically fit. It is the complete opposite with the ogden athletic club. I love this gym and look forward to going and working out there everyday. read more

Really great facility, clean and lots to do. Great for those wanting fitness and some recreation. Cool cross fit zone too. KRISTEN at the front desk was amazing and so helpful! Had a great smoothie too. I would go back for sure. read more

This club is the best! The facilities are great. My family and I have used both pools, the Tennis courts, child care, and taken some of the group fitness classes. I can't say enough good things about all of it. My personal favorite is Becky's boot camp - varying workouts that are as fun as they are challenging. read more
