I only stay because of the Spin Lisa Glover is an excellent spin coach. She is an excellent asset to the company. The bathrooms are the problem I have they are nasty I don't get it. Crowed I just pick my time to come. The staff is friendly and nice never had a problem there. Basketball - I think they need a sign-up system the guys who play there try to monopolize the courts. Somebody told them they were good. Overall I like the place there are times I leave the building to use the bathroom across the street at the nearest store.
Been a member for close to a year. Even when busy I don't have an issue using the equipment I need. Machines are rarely broken in my experience. Bathrooms could be cleaner, I don't think I'd shower there though. The main issue I have is the basketball courts. As a disabled vet I would love to come and shoot around but there doesn't seem to be any time of the day the courts are not packed. The problem with that is that most of the people are not members. I see new groups everyday. I was told by a long time member that the girl who works the front desk just lets her friends and their friends in. Anyway these people control the court and don't follow the rules. Many people are waiting patiently to play but the same people just keep playing then pick up their friends when they arrive even though they havn't waited. It takes having get up and almost fight to get a spot sometimes. They need a sign up sheet or even better check memberships and keep the disrespectful people who are not paying members out.
Brandon, head of Personal Training "interviewed me" and was so rude I wouldn't want to work with him anyway. He didn't even need Personal Trainers yet, he wasted my time to come in. I have a little experience and hold three NASM certificates. How do you offer me front desk with no growth opportunity. When I get the chance to go to Valrico, it is much more welcoming and professional. Brandon bites.
I LOVE my LA Fitness!! I just moved to the Brandon area and joined the club - wanted to replace the Zumba classes I was losing in T&C. I take the 8:30 classes M-F...and although I don't care for the Zumba instructor and don't attend her classes - the YOGA instructor VANESSA is incredible! Well worth the time and has kept me at the gym.
Dirty, overcrowded, old, rustng equiment, and mold in the locker rooms and pool.
