I am looking for a gym that has good day care and also good classes.
where do you go and what do you like about it?

Fitness incentive because it opens at 5am, classes start as early as 5:15am childcare starts at 8am and the classes and instructors are phenominal!!

Re: What gym do you go to? tell me pros & cons

that sounds great! why do all these gyms only have daycare at 5:30? it's freakin ridiculous!! i hate it!
i want to go the gym at 3:00 and have day care and also classes.
i want GOOD classes.

I actually am going to Lucille Roberts in Massapequa tonight to give it a try. my GF says that that place was her favorite gym, nothing has compared to it!

I go to New York sports club. Pros are its clean, offers great classes, has babysitting and has a tv attached to each piece of cardio equipment. Cons are its expensive and if this is something that bothers you, it is for men and women. But, I love it and would highly recommend it.

I go to XSport in Garden City.

I love it.

There are always available machines and they are open 24/7 365 days a year. They never close.

TVs on all cardio machines, great classes. And there's a pool and spa. I've never used it, and it's under construction right now, but I see women all the time getting ready for water aerobics.

All I know about daycare is that its $1 an hour and I don't know the hours.

LA Fitness - love it!!! they are open 24 hours during the week, pool/jacuzzi, tons of classes - even on weekend afternoons, which I have found to be rare, racketball, TONS of machines. The spin bikes aren't close together which is nice and that studio is big. the whole place is huge! basketball courts, juice bar. I know they have childcare but I don't know anything about it since I don't have kids - it's called 'kids club.'

The price can't be beat, IMO - $49/month for all of that.

The only con - and I'm really nit picking here, is that the studio class times are not in tandem with each other which bugs me. So for example, I like to take a 9:15 spin class on saturdays. but the main studio (ie - step, body sculpting, etc.) is on a different schedule so when my spin class ends, they are in the middle of theirs so i can't jump from room to room. I would like if the main studio classes and the spin classes started/ended at the same time.
