kids swimming Indianapolis

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 02:06:13 GMT

Just curious about anything related to the subject. Currently, I take my 14 mo old to a aquababes program somewhere else but I'm going to quit taking him since it's available at Lifetime though right now, I may just take him to the pool on my own since it's not like they are teaching him to swim at this age, just getting him familiar with it. Does anyone else go to the pool or swim classes in Indianapolis or elsewhere and do you like it?

How safe are the chemicals?

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 19:05:28 GMT

I'm a member in Scottsdale. We use the outdoor and indoor pools almost everyday and I am concerned about the effects of the chlorine to our long term health. I just read an article that discussed the issue. Is the pool safer outside in the summer?(http://www.thedailygreen.com/environmental-news/breast-cancer-risk-factors

Accidents?

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 21:05:15 GMT

My poor husband has only tried to take the kids swimming on his own 2 times... both times the pools have been closed due to accidents. Is there anyway people who cause these accidents can be fined or something. He is really unhappy with this and it will probably take a lot to get him to go back.

What is your favorite thing to do at a Life Time Fitness swimming pool?

gfelder@lifetimefitness.com — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 19:18:55 GMT

In a recent Life Time Fitness Swimming "Dive In" poll, 50 percent of voters indicated their favorite thing to do at a Life Time Fitness swimming pool was swimming laps.

What is your favorite thing to do at a Life Time Fitness swimming pool and why?

Swimming laps in a more organized manner?

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 02:03:06 GMT

I am swimming an average of 5 times/week laps. I get frustrated sometimes when there are people in the pool, occupying a lane and not swimming and I am sitting and waiting for them to cool off in the pool from the sauna or whatever ( the showers are a few feet away btw for cooling off). Maybe we should swim then in a more organized manner where we can make reservations, for how many lanes we want and for how long? Requiring to make a reservation, would make people to be more conscious about how they spend their time in a pool...no?

Please keep the Cary NC Outdoor Pool Open for Adult Lap swimming in the Fall

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 22:24:22 GMT

Right now, it is still open until 10 p.m. every day for adult lap swimming, which is great!

The question always comes up in the Fall as to when to close the outdoor pool.

Please try to keep it open as late in the Fall as possible.

I am talking about unsupervised adult lap swimming hours. I do not care about Family hours.

Cutting the hours back to 8 p.m.(or whatever) is ok if need be, but preferably keep it open all week long, not just on weekends.

I know that the indoor pools are available, but I find that the chlorine levels are irritating indoors to the point that I do not like swimming indoors,

Thanks!

Toddler Slide at Indoor Pool in Vernon Hills

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 19:22:49 GMT

I heard that the toddler slide was removed due to kids getting injured. I'm a new member and would really like to have the indoor slide for this upcoming fall/winter. This was a big driver for me joining as the Chicago winters are quite long and I want something to do with my young boys. Are there any plans to re-install the slide with perhaps some safety improvements or more clear expectations of parents watching their children?

swim team

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 18:35:13 GMT

Are there any plans or would it be considered to begin a swim team at the Cary, NC Lifetime Fitness? I know there are several families that belong to LTF for the pool, and it seems like a swim team would be an extra incentive. Several neighborhoods do not have a swim team, and there are few options for those families if they'd like their child/ren to belong to one. Thanks.

outside swimming pool

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 23:04:34 GMT

well, it just happened on 06/30/2009--

I understood that the outside swimming pool operates from sunrise to sunset, but what I do not understand is that why one of our lifeguard can stay in the outside swimming pool with his female friend while the inside pool was full and that lifeguard still commmanded that I should wait inside?!

I am looking for the answer(s) from the LT managing office.

thanks!

Aqua Fitness Class Schedule at San Antonio (281)

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Mon, 06 Jul 2009 22:33:41 GMT

New member here - very happy so far, but I'm a little frustrated trying to get schedules for Aquatics at the San Antonio club on Hwy 281. I've tried the website (no aquatics classes show up at all), and I've called (get random voicemail working through the menu system - and no call back, or disconnected by the operator). No one seems to know what the schedule for Aquatics activities are except Family Swim Hours. I'm sure some of this is left-over from the Holiday, and some is probably due to the new scheduling system, but I just want to know when the Aqua Fitness classes are! Is there anyone out there who knows?

The Light Bright Spa process only takes 20 minutes and is more effective than any other teeth whitening system currently available in the United States.

Teeth Whitening treatments are an obvious addition to businesses where clients are concerned about their appearance.

The double sided mouthpiece has a special whitening agent and other essential ingredients. All you have to do is simply insert it so it is pressed firmly against your upper and lower teeth and Sit Back and Relax. Our spectrum blue LED light is positioned so that it focuses its energy directly onto the mouth piece. The Mouthpiece acts as a lens which activated the whitening agent and brightens your smile.

Brighter Smile at LIFESPA
A typical Light Bright Spa treatment will brighten your teeth 2-6 Shades Whiter. People with heavily discolored teeth with notice the greatest improvement but nearly everyone will notice a remarkable difference. The product is Safe, Effective, and Painless.

Slides--height requirement?

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 16:55:49 GMT

My 4 year old daughter who can swim has finally gotten the courage to go down the slides. She has been riding them for the last 3 days! So proud of herself. Today, we went to go on the slides and she was denied b/c she was too short. Don't get me wrong I am all for rules, but they should at least be consistent with them. She was in tears and took it very personal that she was not able to go down this time and her brother was. I had explained that the previous lifeguards made a mistake by letting her ever go, but 3 days of doing it then being denied? Confusing and upsetting for a 4 year old. Unfortunately I did not address the situation b/c I have 2 other little ones and wanted to do it w/ dignity. ALL lifeguards should then measure your child if they doubt their height meets the requirement.

Swimming Clock in in-door pool

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 18:59:52 GMT

Does anyone know how long the indoor swimming clock has not been functioning? I have only been to swim three times; however, every time that I have been there it has not functioned.

I attempted to turn it on everytime I was there, but that was to no avail. Today, a fellow member inquired with the LG staff member that was on deck; after attempting several times, she also noticed that it was not working. I am aware that the outdoor clock is working fine; however, I prefer to swim laps indoors (less crowded). I even willing to bring a battery to bring it to life; I'll probably keep one in my bag for my next swim workout.

Thanks
