Genesis Health Clubs - 132nd & Center

Experiencia negativa: We are in month 6 of a 5-6 week pool reno. No one can/will give info on potential opening dates. We swimmers are strung along with one story after another. Calls asking about opening dates get various answers, often significantly different answers on the same day. I selected this location for the pool and their most excellent aquatic instructors. I can enjoy those instructors if I'm willing to drive all over Douglas and Sarpy county to do so. The substitution locations were workable for the 5-6 week promised time frame. Now this traveling about the metroplex is getting old and costly AND there's no resolution on the horizon. Reaching out to the HQ in Wichita results in a word salad response that says absolutely nothing. I'm feeling very foolish to have believed they things they said when I joined or that the pool would be out of service for five or six weeks. I'm disappointed at the level of disrespect shown their members.

Experiencia fantástica: Blake went above and beyond in getting things figured out with my membership. Great experience love this gym!

Experiencia fantástica: Good gym. Great staff. The men's shower room really, really, really needs a remodel though.

Experiencia fantástica: The water classes are my favorite. But also the fact that you have a wide variety of other classes and machines to use is great also.

Experiencia fantástica: Such a great club, with awesome trainers and clean, modern equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: This location has just about everything needed for yourself and the family! Staff very friendly and helpful!

Experiencia fantástica: I am so happy to have a gym with a pool!

Experiencia fantástica: Jenna At the front desk was amazing. We really appreciated her good customer service. I would recommend this place to anybody and she was very helpful and told me that the kids can swim in the pool as long as they're with their parent not every gym in Genesis as as accommodating as this one

Experiencia fantástica: Went to this gym for the first time today. Staff were really nice and I didn't feel judged at all! Definitely plan on going back.

Experiencia fantástica: The past 6 months at this place have been exceptional! The staff is really awesome. John, the GM, is friendly and has hired some really great people! Everyone from the front counter staff to even the guy who runs the bar. They’re all great. If my day is not going well, this place is always a pick me up. I started working with Trenton and he has motivated me to lift heavier than I ever have! I have no doubt that they will help me reach the goals I have.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality This is my “Home club” and my community where I have drastically improved my health and fitness with the help of trainers, coaches in classes and my friends. It’s a very friendly club and I’ve made lots of long term friends. Everyone has been supportive throughout my entire journey. No judgement — only supportive environment.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is fantastic. Best gym I've ever been to!

Experiencia fantástica: Very welcoming club. Always greeted warmly and when leaving with a goodbye. Clean towels always available. Good overall club.

Experiencia fantástica: It was great to get back into the gym after a very long Covid break. Everyone was very friendly, and the staff was more than helpful. The employees made me feel very welcome. The gym was also kept clean, and sanitizers were convenient to use as needed. Keep up the good work!!

Experiencia fantástica: Genesis on 132nd & Center is a very nice gym with quite a few extra amenities you won't find at other locations (indoor and outdoor pools, showers, sauna, steam room, towel service, etc.). It is clean with a lot of staff on site. Most of the equipment is new, and everything is in working order. The only negative is it isn't very lifter friendly. There is a "no bag" rule, so if you bring a belt, lifting shoes, straps, wraps, braces, etc., be prepared to juggle all of that in your arms up and down a flight of stairs between the locker room and the weight area. Also, putting the weights down with any kind of noise will get you talked to, so you will need to control the negatives on your deadlifts. Forget about any Olympic lifts, even though they have three excellent Hammer Strength platforms made for it. It isn't quite as bad as Planet Fitness, but it is close. Also, these rules only exist at this location. No other Genesis does anything weird like this. This facility is one of the nicest Genesis locations I've visited. Unfortunately, the particular rules make it too inconvenient for me to lift here. It is a great gym if you like cardio, classes, pools, and don't plan on picking up anything heavy. Update: The business replied and asked me to send an email explaining the issues, which I did within a few days. It has been six months with no official response. The issues still with this location still persist. The gym is almost unusable for anybody serious about weightlifting. Update 6.23.21: I just revisited this gym and the new general manager Jon has really turned this place around. The staff is all friendly and they no longer harass weightlifters. It is one of the nicest Genesis locations in Omaha.

Experiencia fantástica: I love it!! Ethan Wood is an amazing trainer. I totally highly recommend him to anyone that is struggling to get in shape. He is very motivating and very respectful. He will guide you in the right direction. I struggled to lose weight for years and he taught me so many techniques I didnt know about. So far I lost over 25 lbs.Genesis is very lucky to have Ethan Wood!! Give them a call and schedule with Ethan Wood, you won't regret it, trust me!!!

Experiencia fantástica: For the money this gym is great. They offer many different activities. Racquetball, free weights, machines, cardio equipment, pool, tennis, spinning etc. Open good hours 7 days a week. Friendly staff. They could improve equipment maintenance and cleaning.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Quality The equipment is new and smooth. Plenty of variety and great lighting!

Experiencia fantástica: Got to pick your workout time strategically to avoid the meat heads, but overall it's a nice gym.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing facility, with staff that cares. Jon Ridout, the new GM, goes above and beyond to treat his customers with upmost respect. He definitely is a great face for the company! Would recommend 10/10!

Experiencia fantástica: Ethan is an incredible trainer. The man really knows his stuff and works with you to do the workout that you enjoy. He is constantly changing things up and showing multiple ways to approach a muscle group or exercise. He is highly encouraging and comes off as excited to get you going on your journey to working out. Can't recommend Ethan enough!

Experiencia fantástica: Garrett is a great personal trainer! Compassionate, kind and he really helps you push yourself a bit further than you thought you could go. Also the club is nice.

Experiencia fantástica: It is nice! Lots of room no one is on top of each other. Very clean.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice club, clean areas. Recent updates to the layout is really nice and adds additional space for weights/open space. Can get a bit crowded since it became Genesis but additional space makes it tolerable. My preferred Genesis gym

Experiencia fantástica: I am just here visiting NE for a month. Genesis was nice to let me workout there for the month since there is no fitness center I go to here. I was able to bring the grand kids and we swam . The staff is very nice. Place is cleanand the equipment is well kept.

Experiencia fantástica: Dani was very informative & gave new & different workouts.

Experiencia fantástica: This club is awesome. All of the equipment is brand new. Very clean facility. Seems to be a very busy location for Genesis. The out door pool is awesome in the summer.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Best gym around! Great staff and professionalism! Definitely recommend!

Experiencia fantástica: You have a ton of amenities, way more than the health club we went to. We selected your health club because we were also able to meet with a personal trainer that helped us tweak our workouts so that we could get the most out of working out. We were also able to have our daughter meet with the trainer and now she wants to do more training sessions with him. Your trainers are amazing and really listen to what we want for our goals! The club is super clean and I love the locker rooms. We have used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great! I really like the walking track that you have inside so that when the weather is bad you can still get your steps in. It's great to be able to get a post workout shake as well. Ian is really awesome! Also, kudos to Ethan and Johnathan for being excellent trainers!

Experiencia fantástica: Such a nice gym and great environment. I love the variety of workouts I can do here and the selection of amenities. The staff is very professional and really friendly. Things to improve on. More visible and readable towel baskets. New paint to liven up the appeal. Update the signs with fresh colors. Basketball court needs a shade from the sun. It is hard to play with sun in your eyes. Overall. This Gym is Excellent 5 Stars!

Experiencia fantástica: Used to go here under different management, and under Genesis - it's gotten much better than it was. Definitely gonna be a regular here. Workout here. Definitely worth your time.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Quality People are friendly nice hot tub, indoor & outdoor pool. Has good options for all age levels & fitness needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality My favorite location of the Genesis clubs in Omaha. Friendly staff, modern facility, and overall a great place to work out.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality The instructors here are really great. Classes keep me fit and smiling. Facility offers everything. Two pools, all sorts of machines on two floors. Walking/running track. And it is CLEAN. A great place to start or end your day or get a lift in the middle.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice club, just like prairie life.

Experiencia fantástica: Great family environment! Love the kids club and all the activities they have for the kiddos while I am working out!

Experiencia fantástica: So happy that Genesis purchased this health-club! It makes a wonderful addition to avaliable gyms in the Omaha metro area. I love the amenities, cardio room, courts, indoor/outdoor pools, weight room setup, but especially the spa-like feel of the hot tub & saunas in the locker room. Arguably my new favorite Genesis location.

Experiencia fantástica: Arron did a great job showing us around. Explained everything to us very knowledgeable. Looking forward to using our membership.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been a member of the facility at 132nd and Center for 13+ years. Been through three different owners and yet the staff and facility are still amazing. Lets see how Genesis Health Clubs treats its members and handles all of the upkeep of the equipment. I'll post another review in 6 months to a year with an update.

Experiencia fantástica: Love going to swim with my 10 year old daughter. Always kid friendly. I love to workout at their upstairs gym before going for a nice tan and swim :)

Experiencia fantástica: I like Prairie Life, great equipment, pool, spa and wirl pool. The parking lot is a little confusing until you realize that it is one way around, my daughter was confused and went the wrong way until I pointed it out to her. I would love to get a membership here but it is a little out if our families price range. I pay $42 a month at a health club for my son and I, here at Prairie Life it is $59 a month for a single person. If you can afford it I would recommend getting a membership here.

Experiencia fantástica: So we were happy with the upgrade and remodel at first. Tried another gym amd needless to say we are back. Can't beat the price for what you get here and how nice and clean it is.

Experiencia fantástica: Select Physical Therapy is located inside Prairie Life on 132nd and Center. I have been working with Nick for 5 weeks recovering from a shoulder replacement surgery. I am doing great with therapy, even ahead of schedule. All of my appointments have been on time. Karen is awesome in the office helping with paperwork. Nate is the other P.T. and he is always friendly and helpful too. I have been telling all my friends and co-workers about this facility. Worth 5+ stars

Experiencia fantástica: I absolutely love this location! I have visited just about every one of the Prairie Life Fitness Center locations in Omaha, Downtown Omaha, and in Lincoln on both A&P Street. While the Lincoln location on P Street is my favorite home away from home because of its cozy close-knit family type environment, this location is my go-to throughout the week. This site features a wide variety of activities and amenities choose from, and includes activities for the kiddos too! Kids will be super vised and engaged by the staff during the time that they're being watched which I greatly appreciated. And don't even get me started on how awesome the classes are! The teachers for aerobic classes and especially those Pilates classes are very well trained, and the classes themselves are tons of fun you will learn a lot just by going to one class and you can expect that the teachers will be attentive to their students, and correct you properly if need be. I need to give a shout out to the yoga instructors and the personal trainers as well. I work with a trainer here because I have been recovering from a rather difficult to work with injury, and my trainer has not only adjusted every workout to meet my training needs, but they've worked with my physical therapist. I've never found trainers who did that before and it has made a world of difference in my recovery. The yoga instructors same story. I let them know what my limitations were and they paid attention to it and even poked and prodded me while I was in certain positions to make sure I was using the right muscles and doing the positions to stay within the boundaries of my injury limitations. I have never found such a tension to detail at any other location and these guys deserve more than my five star praise can give them. You will not be disappointed at this location as long as you come looking for a decent workout and well-trained staff. I think the only potential downside is that there's not more parking hahaha!

Experiencia fantástica: My kiddos often confuse this place for a country club...always finding food to charge on my account! Everyone who works here knows my kiddos and are always super kind! Fun and family friendly gym!

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place! Glenn was an absolute delight to work with, really great guy. I prefer this place over Lifetime because it's less crowded, easier to access and much more reasonably priced. They also have a better weights area.

Experiencia fantástica: I have had nothing but great experiences here. I sent my contact information through their website and the same day I got a reply and I set up a tour withing a few hours. Kayla answered all of my questions and got me set up to workout the same day. The facilities are always clean, all the staff has been friendly. I have absolutely no complaints!

Experiencia fantástica: Been going for 20 years, it has been great. Just started yin yoga, shelly the instructor is fabulous.

Experiencia fantástica: Great people, well maintained facility that is constantly seeing updates to the building as well as the equipment. Can't beat it for a family to go to during the summer time, either!

Experiencia fantástica: The best thing about Prairie Life Fitness besides they're nice pool and changing rooms is they have one of the best physical therapists there they are "Physiotherapy". And they include Aqua therapy which is low impact exercises retraining your body

Experiencia fantástica: Plenty of equipment, cardio machines, and a great pool. Very friendly staff and rarely ever so busy that you can't do the workouts you want.
