I really wanted to love this gym. After calling around to a couple places, talking about what we wanted out of a gym, and getting price quotes, I had my heart set on this place. I stopped by to take a tour and sign up, thinking it would only take a couple minutes. I honestly just wanted them to tell me how much it would cost. Brad quoted me $65 a month on the phone. After stopping in, I was quoted $85 if I signed up for auto pay and a year contract. Not cool. I still started to go through with it. My "zero down" was actually $35. And they had no idea how much the yearly fee was, nor when they were going to charge me for it. The real kicker was the " only $150" cancellation fee if you stuck out half the life of your contract. I still probably would have signed up here if they had been honest and upfront about the costs. I had to ask specifically about every single extra fee and I still couldn't get a straight answer. I just wanted a piece of paper stating what I would be charged and when, no way I'm signing a contract without that. As long as management is the same, I would highly recommend avoiding this place.
Cleanest gym I've ever seen! Staff are all very friendly and helpful.
The more I visit this gym the more impressed I am. Starting an exercise program via Silver Sneakers, I never expected to be given access to the full range of machines and personal training that I've received.
Kudos to Kelsey for her gifted, upbeat approach to helping me work around several medical challenges and still have a great workout!
I have been a part of this gym for a while now and I love the community feeling you get. Everyone is very personable, and friendly. My favorite part about this gym is that it offers a variety of classes for all types of people to help accomplish different goals. I am not the best at self motivating when it comes to working out, so it is really nice when instructors such as Kelsey, Katie, and Sara are there to push you to become your better self. My go-to classes that I have seen the most results in are All-American Training, cycling classes, and strength and tone! They are definitely worth a try!
Genesis Health Clubs are the best gyms in Lincoln. They offer a wide variety of group fitness classes and have the best instructors- shout out to Katie and Kelsey for kicking our butts every Sunday at All American Training! This class is an awesome way to get in, get your workout done, and get out! They are even offering towel services now, which makes it even better! If you haven't tried out Genesis, you definitely should.
Update; This is the most corrupt business I have ever dealt with. I sent an email like the reply on this post recommended and they haven't bothered to respond. Also, everytime I go in and ask when the manager (the guy who signed me up and talked me into keeping my membership the first time I tried to cancel) will be in so that I can talk to him face to face; no one knows when he'll be available. If you need to cancel for any reason your going to have to pay a ridiculous amount of money to break their contract. $275 to be exact but that's not it. I have since moved and lost the packet they gave me when I signed up with all of those fine print loopholes telling you how you can cancel your membership. They give ansolutely no notice letting you know when your contract is up. They will not let you cancel your membership over the phone. You have to go into the club and sign a form giving a 30 notice even after the your 12 month contract is up because they keep charging you! I am a single mother who works 6 days a week and only has a couple of hours before work so getting to the gym even when I want to is rare. They pulled out another $57 for the 13th month and when I went in to sign this 30 day notice (Even though I'm 90% sure I signed something and made it VERY clear 6 months ago that I did not want my membership continuing) they are wanting to charge me that $39 yearly fee once again before letting me be free of them!?! NOT WORTH IT. I ended up not canceling 6 months ago because it would have only saved me $100 in the long haul (at that time) but I am not happy about it. If you dont %100 plan on going at least 2x a week for 12 months straight, it's not worth the costs. Also they have a that yearly fee of $39 so I was charged $96 in one month... Definitely the worst decision I have made my entire life. I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO ANGRY. My hand was literally shaking I was so furious while I signed that cancellation notice after finding out they wanted to charge me another fee before it's official. Genesis Health Clubs; They start you out with a health assessment where they gather your information then they prepare you with a layout of the muscle groups you should work on/the exercises that will help you reach your goal. You get a couple of free personal training sessions and have the option of purchasing more sessions. I personally have the buddy pass along with my membership. (If you sign up for that, your stuck paying that extra bit for at least 6 months!) This location has a tanning bed, saunas, showers and plenty of counterspace with plug ins nearby which makes it easy to clean up and prepare for your day after a workout.

If I could give zero stars I would. Do not go here! Ever! The gym is always a mess and has dirty carpets and beat up walls and is in an old run down building. They play music over the speakers with cuss words and racial slurs and its completely inappropriate. I don't know if the manager is in charge of the music but he definitely doesn't do anything to shut it off and its very distracting from the work out. The manager is also not a very friendly man. He has come up behind me and very awkwardly watched me workout and then tried to correct me in a very demeaning tone. This completely turned me off from wanting a membership there. He asked if I wanted to meet with a personal trainer but after the way he talked to me I would never want to pay for that. I have seen him speak to the personal trainers in that tone too. Hes a very disrespectful man. One of my first days working out there I overheard him speaking to a personal trainer and he was telling him to get as much money out of them as you could and it doesn't matter if you have to LIE to them to get them to sign up for training. He mentioned something about free training for the person even though he gets paid for it. I only used the free 7 day pass and I'm so happy I did not sign a membership for this gym because, as a business manager myself, this is NOT how a business should be run. I want others to know the problems with this location so that they do not make the mistake of spending hundreds of dollars on a membership here. Keep in mind, this all happened during my free 7 day trial, imagine what all I would see if I would've gotten a membership. Completely absurd.

I enjoy this facility. I like the options of classes available and the instructors are spot on. However the girl at the front desk could use an attitude adjustment.

Been going here for years. Love it. Great staff.
Wide variety of equipment for both new and experienced members. Clean facilities. Great selection of classes. All around top notch gym in Lincoln.
We are moving and we still have to pay them $150 to cancel. We have done nothing but give them our money and it is not even worth it. I recommend planet fitness. $20/mo for 2 people compared to $78/mo here. YMCA is even a lot better. If you buy this place just be sure to actually use it everyday. I am pregnant and sick most of the time so it was a waste for me. Worst decision we ever made. And for $78/mo you would think the personal training was included. There is not even a pool.
Great environment and amenities. Always a friendly face to greet me and answer any questions I may have. Love to feel that "work-out burn" after classes & training sessions!
The instructors are extremely knowledgeable, highly motivated, and awesome people to be around. I've never been in a gym with a better vibe. No matter if your goal is to simply stay fit during vacation or to train like a hardcore athlete, Genesis has what you're looking for. The front desk staff are simply awesome always greet you with a smile! This is the best gym around!

I have noticed a real change in the gym as far as classes and personal training go. While I don't take advantage of either as I have my own workout regimen, it has been a pleasure to see the new personal training staff and how personal they are with their clients. I have been to gyms where personal trainers are on their phones while their client is performing an exercise and I have not seen anything like that at Genesis. All of the personal trainers are involved and hands on with their clients which has been awesome to see. I also love the variety of classes offered and integrating the community and non-profits into the classes. Bottom line is that Genesis has really made a turn around and I'm proud to be a part of the gym.

The club is on one floor so no steps which I really like for my knees. I wish they had a hot tub so I could give the club a 5 star score. The club is large and I enjoy all the machines they offer to members. The personal trainers Chad and Andre are very good. They do have classes which I hope to attend in 2018 once my knee is healed from surgery.

Felix was the person that gave us the tour and helped us sign up for our membership. He was very helpful and personable. He really made us feel like we were making the right choice in gyms to help us reach our fitness goals! We have taken a few different classes in the last month and each one has been challenging and fun. The staff is friendly and helpful as well!
Very clean, equipment always works well, or is fixed promptly. Really great locker rooms with private showers; dry sauna is especially clean and relaxing after a workout. Staff at this location are very friendly and happy to help out. As a former retail building, it lacks windows -- I prefer the Pine Lake location for its abundant natural light, but both are good gyms!

Great staff, clean facility. The members are serious about fitness, and treat each other respectfully. American Fitness Challenge is a cutting edge fitness class offered free, as well as other classes for all fitness levels. Reasonable pricing and all inclusive makes it a great deal.
I wish they would fix the TANNING BED. It has never worked right since they got it. Please fix the tanning bed so ALL THE BULBS are working correctly. Music played overhead is horrible and I have to turn my headphones up on high to drown it out. I do enjoy the large space and all the equipment they offer at this gym or I would have quit a long time ago. Good parking and easy access.They do offer classes and personal trainers which is nice.
I know that I have to be fair in reviewing this place. I find that the equipment and the availability of classes for the average person who is looking to do better at working out is something that the club provides. I take issue with this club in regards to the contract it comes with and the cancellation policy. Like I said when I communicated with the manager, it is definitely important to train employees on the need to let people know that they are signing up for a 3 year contract and that when the time comes to cancel this contract, you would be charged a bill of 275 dollars. When I heard this, I was very furious because when I signed up, I was not told that I would be in a 3 year contract. It sucks that they have you pay that much to break a gym contract. I hope that this aspect of the business is improved on because it is a nice way to break the trust people have in your business.
Great gym. Love the kids area. Have all equipment I need. People are nice. I would say only thing it lacks is color and atmosphere, but other than that it let's you get the job done.
Awesome gym, came in for a quick workout while out of town. This place has everything, cardio, strength machines (HAMMER!!), CrossFit (with a legit Oly platform), awesome locker oops, showers and sauna, yoga, personal training, you name it! Couldn't ask for more
