I am writing to express my disappointment with the customer service I received at the Life Time…read morePlymouth location on the evening of July 18th, 2026 at approximately 8:00 p.m. I brought two friends with me as my guests. Upon arriving, I was informed that the Plymouth location was not included in my membership and that, because it was after 6:00 p.m., my guest passes were no longer valid. My friend then offered to pay the guest fee of $50 each for himself and his father, but your front desk representative informed us that this was not allowed after 6:00 p.m. I fully understand that employees are required to enforce Life Time's policies, and I have no issue with the rules themselves. My concern is with the manner in which we were treated. The representative was rude, dismissive, and unprofessional throughout the interaction. Her tone of voice, attitude, and overall demeanor made us feel unwelcome from the moment we approached the desk. Good customer service requires treating members and guests with courtesy and respect, even when delivering disappointing news, and unfortunately that did not happen. As we were leaving, the representative used her radio to communicate with someone. I could not hear what she said, but as we were riding the elevator, a Life Time employee who appeared to be part of the security staff approached her and spoke with him, then pointed in our direction. This left the three of us confused and uncomfortable, especially since we had been respectful throughout the entire interaction and had not caused any disturbance. I did not catch the representative's name, but she was working the front desk at approximately 8:00 p.m. I respectfully ask that management review the security footage and, if available, the audio from our interaction so you can evaluate how the situation was handled. I hope management will investigate this matter thoroughly and take the appropriate action to ensure that members and their guests are treated with professionalism and respect in the future. Regrettably, this experience has left such a negative impression that I have decided to cancel my membership. Thank you for your time and attention. I look forward to your response. (The customer service is a black lady, possibly her name is Norma or something similar)

I visited the Los Campeones in Saint Paul and my first impression wasn't the best. The entry area…read morefelt a little musty when I walked in. The gym is bigger than the Northeast location but smaller than Burnsville, probably about the same size as Brooklyn Park. The cardio section was just okay, I'd give it around a 2/5. Free weights I'd put at 3.5/5, solid but nothing special. The machines were the strongest part of the gym, closer to a 4.5/5 since there was a lot of selection and variety.The gym itself was decently clean, but the locker rooms could have been better and had a bit of a smell. It wasn't very busy when I went, and the crowd was mixed which I liked. The noise level was manageable too, not as loud as Brooklyn Center. They had a posing room and some boxing bags, but not much else for extras. I'd give this location a 4/5. It's a good gym if you're in the area, though not my favorite Los Campeones spot.

Lifetime Fitness in Edina is a state of the art gym and lifestyle establishment…read more It truly has everything you need: hundreds of cardio machines, weight machines, free weights, stretching areas, recovery area, fitness studios, group classes, kids academy (daycare while you workout), indoor pools, indoor hot tubs, steam room, saunas, showers, sushi restaurant, grab and go cafe, salon, and lounges with couches and tables to get some work done. Most impressive of all: the rooftop pools, bar and restaurant. It's truly one of the highlights of the city in my mind. Relax in one of the hundreds of lawn chairs, or grab lunch with a friend in the table area. Enjoy poolside service right at your lawn chair or even directly from the pool. Everything at the whole gym is kept impeccably clean and up to date. I recommend Lifetime Edina wholeheartedly.

Lifetime Fitness (Southdale) Review I like the bar at…read moreLifetime Fitness Southdale--interesting people come here. Since many people who focus on their bodies don't drink, I was curious about their "one drink at a time" rule. Turns out, there's an exception--if you order a chaser, you can have 8 oz of beer instead of a full 16 oz pint... for the same price. When I arrived, I ordered: * A glass of tepid water * A Jameson whiskey * A Guinness The bartender, who I know was hired with no prior experience and little training, served me a full pint of Guinness and then left for several minutes to handle something at the register. Meanwhile, I was getting thirsty. Beer doesn't quench thirst, so with a dry mouth, barely able to form words, I asked again for my water. She kindly brought it over. After I finally wetted my whistle, I asked about my Jameson. She told me I couldn't have it because I already had one drink. I asked if they served boilermakers. She said no. I asked if I could get a chaser with my shot. She said sure. Then she took my full Guinness, poured 8 oz into a glass, and dumped the rest down the drain. I tried to stop her, saying she should drink it herself or that I'd buy another chaser since my friend was joining me. But nope--she dumped it anyway. Now, onto my actual reason for coming to Lifetime in the first place--I was meeting a friend. When I checked in, I informed the man at the front desk that my friend would be coming to meet me and that she is autistic, so they should watch out for her when she arrived. He agreed. Yet when she showed up, she was told she couldn't come in because it was members only. Fair enough. But the real issue? She felt scared and uncomfortable because of their loud, stern voices. If I let them know in advance that she was coming and even gave them a heads-up about her needs, you'd think they'd handle the situation a little more professionally instead of making her feel unwelcome and anxious. So, here's my verdict: * If you're picky about service or don't like paying extra for chasers, you might want to avoid the bar. * If you're looking for good sushi, the salmon sashimi is well-priced and hits the spot. * If you're expecting considerate customer service, don't count on it. For a high-end gym that prides itself on service, this visit was disappointing.

I can confidently say that my experience at Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping has been nothing short of…read moreamazing, and it absolutely deserves a full 5-star rating. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, supported, and motivated in a way that's honestly hard to find at most gyms. One of the first things that stood out to me was the atmosphere. The environment is incredibly positive and energetic, but not in an intimidating way. Whether you're completely new to fitness or already experienced, you feel like you belong. The coaches and staff do an excellent job of creating a space where everyone is encouraged to push themselves while still feeling comfortable going at their own pace. The instructors are truly one of the best parts of Farrell's. They're not only knowledgeable and professional, but they're also genuinely invested in helping you succeed. They take the time to correct your form, explain movements clearly, and keep you motivated throughout the entire workout. You can tell they really care about your progress, not just physically but mentally too. The workouts themselves are intense, structured, and incredibly effective. There's a great mix of strength training, cardio, and kickboxing, which keeps things exciting and prevents it from ever feeling repetitive. Every session feels purposeful, and you leave feeling accomplished. Even on days when you don't feel like showing up, you end up being glad you did. Another thing that really makes this place special is the community. The people here are supportive, encouraging, and friendly. It's not just a gym--it feels like a team. Everyone pushes each other to do better, and there's a real sense of accountability that helps you stay consistent. That kind of environment makes a huge difference, especially if you're trying to build long-term habits. The facility itself is clean, well-organized, and equipped with everything you need. It's clear that they take pride in maintaining a high-quality space for their members. Everything runs smoothly, from scheduling to classes, which makes the overall experience stress-free. What really sets Farrell's apart, though, is how it focuses on total transformation--not just physical results, but confidence, discipline, and mindset. It's more than just working out; it's about becoming a stronger, healthier version of yourself. Overall, I would highly recommend Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping to anyone looking for a gym that offers great workouts, amazing coaching, and a supportive community. Whether your goal is to get stronger, lose weight, or just feel better, this is a place that can truly help you get there. Easily 5 stars.

What I really appreciate is how family-friendly the whole place is. The kids' areas, classes, and pool setup make it a great option if you're trying to balance fitness and family time. It's hard to find a gym that truly gets both right -- but this one does. Overall, this YMCA is consistently reliable, clean, and well-run.
