Love it. Great classes and the upstairs cardio section is never really that crowded. Nice cafe with great smoothies and good food, especially for kids. Clean and well-kept. We LOVE the childcare center. Haven't used it as much since my oldest started pre-school but it is clean and big and my little guy always has a great time. Have always liked everyone who has worked there. Having said that, the most popular classes get SO crowded. I wish they would do a ticketing system like at my old gym. Also, can be really clique-y and some of the women who belong are just, well, ridiculous. I witnessed an actual fight last week over space/territory in one of the classes. And these are grown women! I keep pretty much to myself, do my workout, try to ignore some of the ridiculousness and REALLY enjoy it.

Thanks, I am a 50+ married man so i will avoid the drama. Reason for joing in two fold.

RIO is getting old, dirty and dingy

I just had my hip replaced and need to hit it hard. Lifetime is also in Reston where I work so I will be able to spin before or after work every day.

I am a 50 yo married woman and both my dh and I are members of Lifetime Rockville. We don't take the classes, but take advantage of the equipment upstairs. We have both been very happy there. Of course, for us, the best part is the convenience as we live in Western Rockville. That to me is the most important thing - ease of getting to and from the gym.

I have lots of friends who go there and love it. They continue to go despite the fact that it's pricier than many of the other gyms in the area.

I actually just ended my membership for several reasons, including what the PP wrote. The classes that I likes were so insanely crowded that I would end up having to carve 2 hours out of my day to get a space in the class. I'd have to get to certain spin or weight or yoga classes a good 20 minutes in advance if I wanted to get in and who has time for that? The other problem is that the early morning classes suck. The weekday early morning spin instructors are terrible, and the non-spin early classes are always at 5:30 am which is too early for me bc, like I said above, even those are insanely crowded so you have to be there at like 5:10. add to that all the clique-y women who show up with full makeup and hang their prada bags off their spin bikes, and I was done.

What are the going rates for Lifetime Rockville? And which classes were over crowded?
