I've been a member for a few weeks and here is an honest review of the gym. First of all, everybody, from the person who sold me my membership to the front desk staff to the maintenance staff have been super friendly. The gym is clean, well maintained, and I rarely have seen equipment that is offline for maintenance. The gym spans four levels which include a basement pool, rooftop pool (closed until May), cardio areas, group class room, a free weight room, and a weight machine room. The free weight area is excellent with dumbbells going up to 125 lbs. and plenty of bars and Smith Kline machines. The weight machines are a little bit inadequate; they could benefit by adding more machines as they really only have one for each body part. Between the free weights and machines, there is more than enough there to get a great workout. I usually go in the late mornings and the gym is pretty busy with a little "lull" starting around 10:30. Even when it's busy, I've never had to wait long for a weight bench or piece of equipment. There are plenty of trainers working with clients and they are friendly and respectful to other gym patrons. Gym members are friendly and practice good gym etiquette. I only use the locker room to store my coat during workouts but love the free workout towels (and bath towels if you choose to shower there) and find the locker room to be pretty clean at all times. The lockers have built-in combinations so you don't have to bring your own lock. Unlike a lot of other gyms, the lockers actually work and don't feature half of them saying "out of service." I know there are some negative reviews but after a few weeks I'm really happy with the gym and with the value I receive. The monthly price isn't as cheap as Planet (nothing is) but it is far lower than what you would pay at a Lifetime or Equinox. Overall super happy with becoming a member at Lakeview Athletic Club.
