The 24 hour super sport in Katy has better equipment than any Life Time. The new Hoist machines are the ish. http://www.hoistfitness.com/commercial/equipment/
One of my friend was mugged in the parking lot of the Almeda location in daylight. Out of all the 24 in SE houston the almeda one is the worst one.
If you're moving from San Diego and looking for gym with eye candy - you're going to be sorely disappointed... the quality of tail drops exponentially from Cali. But those saying the ones in the Galleria area are right. I spent 10+ years working out at the gyms at San Felipe/Voss, then Richmond/610 and finally ChimneyRock/Westheimer... the Richmond/610 from 12am-6am has the best tail... you literally see the strippers from Men's Club and Treasure's coming in after their shifts. It is quite a sight.
Do they ever have any deals? The current monthly memberships for a single seems a little steep compared to what a friend of mine is paying at LA Fitness. We are at Lifetime, but I'm thinking of switching because my kids only use the pool in the summer and my wife doesn't use the membership so I was thinking about getting a single membership at that new location.
