Premier Lubbock Sports Plex

The other review here is laughable and looks like a Premier staffer wrote it. I've been in weight rooms most of my life and this is the worst one I have ever been in. It is clear they have no idea how to run a gym. There has never been a time when I have gone in, and there aren't weights and dumbells on the floor and every station still has someone elses weights left on it. There have been times that I've had to wait for little kids to get done playing on machines in order to use them. Most times, they have tournaments or practices going on, so its impossible to find parking. The overall place is just dirty and the mens bathroom always smells bad. Plus, while not necessarily the fault of the gym, there's a lot of patrons that are just tools and have no consideration for others. Its a general "air" about the place that is fostered. There are much better, cleaner, and now cheaper places in Lubbock to workout. Dont' go here. more

The manager is friendly and efficient. Takes care of all concerns quickly and is easily approachable thru out the day. When I signed up they had no enrollment fee, no contract and inexpensive dues. I pay less than $30 a month. Visits with the Personal trainer was free to tailor your work out on their equipment, amazing compared to other gyms who charge an EXTREME amount They have a woman?s only work out room which is pretty private w/ all equipment and close to the daycare. The gym is newly renovated yet not as fancy as others in town. I would even call it a bit dreary in some spots. Yet they keep it extremely clean and up to date. As I said all concerns are addressed quickly so if a problem occurs w/ a machine or such just talk to management. Most of the time its fixed by the next visit. I had no ?salesman? trying to sign me up when I first visited and I was happy to find out they had a no contract option. With no contract I can visit any day, any time the gym is open. Free classes too. This center has a fabulous daycare. A large room full of toys ranging for kids aged baby to pre-teen. Video games for older kids and TONS of items to entertain little ones. There is little turn-around in daycare staff and my kids love the morning caregiver. Not a fancy playroom by any means but my kids have not complained once in the years I?ve attended. In fact they really enjoy visiting. Daycare hours are short- closed between noon and 4pm. Not really a problem if your childless but limiting to us who need the daycare to attend. This is the only downside I see from this gym. The stairs leading up to the daycare can be troublesome for newcomers w/infant children since they have spaces between the steps. I recommend taking your child when you tour to see if this is a problem. This gym may not have all the bells and whistles but it?s clean ,cheap, and has all you need for your workout. With the cost and no contract I recommend it. Pros: no contract, cheap, great daycare! Cons: daycare closed mid afternoon more
