My gym has a nearly empty 3 lane pool

It’s only 25 yards long but just 5 minutes from my house, and I really enjoy not having to share it

I swam 3k today and had to deal with 4 moms, 6 kids, 11 grannies, 14 dogs, and even a giraffe. Where do people find these pools

These posts are making me wish for an empty pool so badly

Looks like an LA Fitness pool. I thought it was mine but the windows are different

I thought the same. It looks like my pool but I know it’s not because their heater is broken

@Jagger
This pool is a bit warmer than I like but I’ve gotten used to it. The heater broke for a few days a couple of weeks ago and the temperature was perfect

Same here

That mural looks poorly designed. It looks like someone is trying to do a swan dive but ends up belly flopping

I had an LA membership for years in one city, but when I moved and started at the new place the pool wasn’t well maintained.

The chemicals were always off. One time there was a used band-aid floating in the pool on Saturday. I reported it and when I went back on Monday, it was still there. The deck always felt gritty and dirty.

I miss having a place where I could swim a few thousand yards almost anytime

@Marley
Ours is well maintained. They clean the deck almost every day

This looks like LA Fitness. I tried it in Toronto and various smaller cities, and never found one with a clean pool. Hope you’re having better luck!

Mine is pretty good, not perfect, but usually nothing I would call bad

@Zoren
That’s nice because like you, the pools at LA Fitness are often not busy, which is always nice

Looks like my pool, Michigan

It’s Ann Arbor

LA Fitness is always empty but a bit gross. I’ll take it anyway

Do you have a separate spa and sauna or are they in the same room?

@Campbell
The spa is in the pool room and the sauna is in the locker rooms
