Pros. Pools both indoor and outdoor are well maintained. The outdoor one even has a small play area for the kids. The workout equipment are ample and roomy. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Will go out of there way to help u. Lastly they have a bar which as a Wisconsinite I approve. Cons. the bar is only open on the weekends and no later then 4pm. The whirlpool jets are so weak it fizzes like a bath bomb and temp on the cool side. The steam room is so bright it hurts the eyes and is in the main walkway to the pool so u feel like your on display. No thank u. Overall if u want a swim and exercise great. Everything else not so much.

Best gym in Milwaukee area. No kids running around unlike other places. Friendly stuff, great variety of free instructor led classes.

Just joined. Overall pretty good. The facility is well kept but the pool is a little smaller than I would prefer. Typical 25-meter length pool but only 4 lap lanes and only 4-5 feet deep. Good location for me. So far so good.

Been coming to this location for some time now. Great fitness center, plenty of equipment, pool/hot tub/sauna/steam room, and more! Very clean areas as well. A little pricey for membership compared to other clubs, but worth it in my opinion if you take advantage of everything that is offered. Highly recommended!

This place is constantly busy. I used to arrive right after opening to swim and the lanes were full. Amenities were decent I guess but I didn’t really enjoy going here given the throng of people.

Many selfish people refuse to wear a mask, in the face of rising infections. When I questioned an employee they stated that the wisconsin Supreme Court told them they didnt have to!

Loved my visit here. A friend of mine in town took me. This place is great. Lively. Fun. Energetic. Lots of machines to use. Lots of free weights. 3 pools and a huge hot tub. Honestly is freaking sweet. I wish it were closer to me so I could join full time.

I cant say enough about the Falls WAC! Ive been a member for years and have never had any issues! The various facilities are clean, the staff is very friendly and all make an effort to learn your name. The classes are outstanding and run by energetic and knowledgeable instructors! Membership is a bit pricy, but well worth it if you make use of the gym! And if needed you can pause the membership if needed (maternity/paternity leave, illness, travel, etc.) for months at a time.

This is a nice facility with a great friendly staff. I have been a member for two years. I only have two complaints. #1, there are only two mens room stalls in the whole building and in the morning its not unusual to wait 5-10 minutes for a stall so dont wait until the last minute if you need to use one. #2, for body pump, there are not enough 15 pound weights so you have to show up super early to get them. Ive complained several times and once they ordered like two more weights which isnt nearly enough. Everyone is aware of the problem but whoever makes the buying decisions just doesnt care.

Wonderful gym to be a member of. Higher than average membership fee, but it gives you access to 7 great gyms in the area and many free classes. They also have a team of highly skilled massage therapists and motivating personal trainers.

This is a great health club. They offer a great range of classes included with your fees and you always have the option to work out on your own. Their trainers are great and some of their success stories are awesome. They WAC really makes an effort to make you feel welcomed and offer things like a chili cook-off, drinks at the club bar during Packer games. A viewing party on Monday for The Bachelor. I would highly recommend. Note that they also offer a discount for those younger than 29, as well as a couples discount.

Great staff and facilities. It is a newer building with newer equipment. They keep it all clean and functional.The locker rooms are clean and large enough to accommodate the rushes before and after work.It is a bit on the pricey side, but the old saying holds true, you get what you pay for.

Review №35

Ive been going a little over a month now. I usually go first thing in the morning when they open up. I have tried other times during the day and it gets busy really quick. The locker rooms are probably the cleanest Ive ever seen at a club. And the staff is very nice.

Below 25 years ? 50$ per month . They also give you free gift cards worth 200$ depends on the month you join. Staff is great. Gym is great with a lot of extra training classes. There is a Bar on the entrance and its awesome with reasonable prices.

WAC Menomonee Falls must send a courtesy text message when they are not operating on a regular day or have sudden changes in their schedule. Twice they had power outage and surprisingly they dont seem to have a generator backup.Their weekend hours are also not so good, Friday’s they close by 9:00 PM and weekends by 7:00 PM.Especially when you are charging 67 $ for membership , you’ve got to provide the best to your customers.

Great health club! It is very clean and it has some great amenities. It does lack in the weight lifting area. There is only 1 bench press and there is no deadlifting platform. Most of the equipment is machines. It is more health club than gym.

Review №45

My favorite place to be other than home! Friendly staff, great Kids Clubhouse & its clean. Good programming as well if you like to take classes- everything from Zumba to yoga and body pump (and more) are included in membership, but there are also more advanced or specialized classes for an extra fee. Lots of equipment options you wont find at every gym like battle ropes & tires. Its a big kid playground!

Review №46

Cant say enough good things about this place. Everything you would want or need in a workout facility. I will skip a list of everything they have and just tell you what I enjoy most.I look forward to a swim, hot tub, steam room, sauna and shower so often during these winter months. Ive enjoyed some pickup games of basketball and the new people Ive met doing that. I also love that I can go back and forth between different locations to workout with friends of mine who live in other areas. Just awesome. And I never seem to run out of WAC cash (in-house currency).I will be interested to see what I do come summertime when all I do is run, but I will give this place 5 stars regardless because of my experience thus far.

Thank you, Tim Halverson, for being more than a personal trainer, but an excellent nutritionist as well. I came to the WAC to improve my freestyle swim stroke and recieved more than I expected. Mr. Halversons experience helped for me to immensely improve, not only my freestyle stroke, but my nutrition and excercise routine as well. Through Mr. Halversons knowledge, I am able to greatly increase my chances of success and have a better diet to accommodate my goals. I am fortunate to have had you help me invest in myself. I highly recommend Mr. Halverson.

This is a very nice facility, with friendly, personable staff. From cardio, to weights, yoga, basketball, swimming, and more.. There is something here for anyone from beginner to advanced. Like any gym, it can get busy from 5-7pm but it is s large facility and thus far it hasnt been a problem. If youre in the area I would recommend checking it out.

The facility in Menomonee falls is very nice however they play rap music and the manager says its a mix of all genre but it isnt a mix at all. This club has most members who have young FAMILIES! Play country music or oldies but not songs that are encouraging people to shoot other people, or degrade women!!

Review №59

Huge variety of classes included in membership. Lots of equipment, including some more unusual items like a nonmotorized treadmill. Basketball court, pool/sauna, and open area for personal training, running stairs, etc. Great features but they do come at a higher price compared to other health clubs

Review №60

UPDATE SUMMER 2020: Cancelled my membership when they came back from quarantine late and then imposed a whole host of onerous new regulations and protocols. Their attitude about it was so excruciatingly supercilious too. Even so, I mightve stuck it out if they had lowered the price meaningfully to compensate for the inconvenience, or even if they had just kept the saunas and steam rooms running. Oddly, Ive found that Ive lost weight and am in better shape working out at home though, so thank you, WACcos, for being so insufferably full of yourselves.--------------------------Its true that Milwaukee cant really compete with cities like Denver or Dallas or even Nashville or Indianapolis when it comes to community facilities. There just isnt the political will to fund the types of recreation and fitness centers that many cities across the country provide or subsidize for their residents. So that being the case, the Wisconsin Athletic Club fills a very much-needed space in this town. Of course in order to survive, WAC cant be quite as lavish as one might prefer. Its a pretty bare-bones operation and membership rates are high, but in the context of Milwaukee, its the best option and the best value for many of us. I for one, am grateful to at least have this option.

Review №62

As others have touched on the training staff (with a couple exceptions like Tony) are extremely rude. Like they know you are using a piece of equipment and they just over take it. They try to intimidate you if you workout in the open training area and I swear they try to get in your way to push you out. This is the only gym where the trainers do not interact with the regulars that know what they are doing. I guess they havent figured out that newbies look to the regulars for advice. Like hell I am suggesting any of these trainers. The people that go to the club are really chill and nice. Its a close group that really supports each other. The trainers arrogant and entitled attitude is often a topic of discussion. Its so strange how poorly managed this brand new club is. The bathrooms are filthy on a regular basis. I wish I could post some pics. There is extensive water damage in one of the stalls and the cheap urinal dividers are swelling due to the particle board being soaked with pee. The shower floor is filthy by 3pm. I recently moved to WI and its crazy to think this is your best option in metro Milwaukee area. This place wouldnt be open for a year if it were on either coast. Atlas I still go there until a better option opens up.

For the last several months the inside exercise pool is not kept at the temperature it is suppose to be. Often the whirlpool is cold. Too much clohrine in the exercise pool to the point it is frying my skin. Outside pool is cold and full of bugs. Many people are talking about quitting. Complaining does nothing. Get it together WAC.

Review №68

Great club BUT the new body pump set up is ridiculous. Here is idea when you arrive at the club tell them your here for body pump. Keep the studio closed until 15 mind before class starts. Dont allow anyone to hold spots for others. Must be present to WIN. FYI you can get Les Mill classes on demand for 12.99 a month. Al varitey of ckassed. 30day free trail.

The good: Friendly staff, specifically the trainers. Very personable and warm. Lots of equipment options as well, and a good amount of free cardio classes.The bad:At some point you need to put a cap on how many members you have or sell different time slots... It is a mad house here lately. Or maybe open a second location nearby to accommodate a more comfortable crowd level. Secondly, unless there are a handful of people at the gym, the wireless is useless. At the price point, and given the vast number of members I observe, the maintenance on the equipment should be priority, meaning every treadmill or cardio machine should be in good working order, breakdowns are understandable...but its been months that several of them have some functions that dont work. The lack of up keep is starting to show, I think this is in large part due to the number of members they have.

Not very clean, they just spray eucalyptus in the showers every so often. Also the sauna is kept in gross condition (I doubt they have ever given it a through cleaning). Female sauna takes forever to heat up and doesnt get very hot once it does. They recently installed vents above the indoor pool and theres crazy backdraft, making the room very cold. Pointlessly expensive, you can get all the same amenities at planet fitness for 20 bucks a month.
