This gym is outdated, the equipment is awful, but the staff here are incredibly rude. I work third shift so usually go in the last couple hours. At 10:00 at night (when they close at 11) they re already cleaning which if no one is in an area I totally understand wanting to get things done and in order for closing, but your operating hours are as stated. If you say you re open til 11, then you are. But an hour or hour and a half before close I m in the squat rack, in middle of my set literally have weight on my shoulders squatting and the lady literally was cleaning underneath and around me. First of all it s rude more importantly it s dangerous, what if I had to drop that weight it would have landed on me or her and badly hurt one of us. That was my first time ever going in there too. Tonight I went in and after my workout wanted to swim, I was with a friend who witness all of this, at half hour til close the, what she said was, manager, comes out as soon as we got in pool and basically tried to get us to leave. Was super pushy about not wanting us out there. Feeling uncomfortable we did. Immediately after she followed us into locker room, I was naked trying to dry off and get dressed and she stopped and harassed us and wouldn t walk or look away even though I have no clothes on and am clearly uncomfortable. She kept repeating herself endlessly as if we didn t hear her the first time and it s hard to get dressed and leave when she won t walk away. I told her she was being way too aggressive and I was trying to dress and leave and she still wouldn t walk away from us, she did finally for maybe two minutes at this point I was dressed ( finally), and she brings some paperwork stating rules and hours, she kept bringing up the old hours as if it was somehow relevant, especially seeing as i never came to this gym before now I always went to lifetime. Then proceeded to harass and yell at us and make minor threats such as going to someone higher up about us, she asked if this was going to be a problem even though we literally did nothing except workout and get In pool briefly. I felt as though she was targeting me for whatever reason. I have many tattooes and piercings not sure if this was discriminatory or not, but it felt like it. I asked her to back off on my way out and she wouldn t. This gym costs way too much for not having nice equipment terrible training programs and most of them don t even look as though they work out or even take care of themselves. This is a gym, which should be promoting fitness and wellness. Being someon who is in there for the right reasons this is off putting and being treated like some criminal or awful person is not acceptable in any form of business. Lifetime is cheaper and way better cleaner and friendly. I m probably going to go back there, I only came to premier because it s closer to my home. If you re serious about your fitness regiment and especially if you re newer to fitness and need guidance do not come here. Save your money and motivation for a place that wants you to be there.
