Lifetime Fitness - Page 2

I would say LTF is definitely a step up from 24. Working at 24 sucked. You can make a pretty decent living at LTF if you can close.

I'm thinking about making Lifetime my new home. I've tried 24 hour and LA Fitness, but I heard that Lifetime is the gym to train at.
Any thoughts or input about this place?

Fantastic place and VERY well organized! Country club environment at a local gym price.

I ended up not taking the job. They wanted me to work a required 40hrs per week on commission only. I ended up taking a job at a smaller, locally-owned gym instead.

Thanks! I like it because there are no required hours but I can come in whenever I want and prospect for clients. I do new member orientations at $8/hr which is another chance to get clients and %50 of the session price. To me the best part is that I don't have an exclusivity agreement so I'm free to train other clients at my home or theirs, do boot camps, etc.

Yeah. When you work for ltf you cant do any other work in the fitness or supp field. Also, if you leave or get fired, you cant work in any gym or supplement store within a 5 mile radius.
