Life Time Athletic Grand Opening in Bellevue!

Life Time Athletic is the brand new luxury health club + gym located in the heart of downtown Bellevue, WA right inside The Shops at the Bravern.  Consistent with the vision of The Shops at the Bravern and fitting in with the posh downtown Bellevue scene, Life Time Athletic lives up to the standard of having the best customer service paired with ultimate luxury for fitness enthusiasts featuring endless inspiration and options!

I had the opportunity to check out the club before it officially opened to the public and had so much fun!  I wanted to share it with all of you before you go and check it out for yourself!

First, the space is BEAUTIFUL.  From the front entry lined with cushy chairs to the fresh flower decor throughout club, the space is meticulous and clean.  It really is a for everyone as they have a variety of studios including yoga, pilates, fitness, indoor cycling and barre studios.  The cardio and weights floor is expansive along with the gym and you’ll have chance to wind down and relax in the steam room or sauna.  Once you’re done with your workout or if fitness is not your thing, they also have the Life Spa where you can indulge in skin and massage services as well as the Life Cafe where you can enjoy chef-crafted meals, takeout options, smoothies (the Almond Butter smoothie is DELISH!) and protein-packed snacks.  As they say, if it’s there, it’s healthy!  Always a good thing!  😉

Next, my husband and I got to try out one of the fitness classes.  Always interested in Spartan races but never having had a chance to participate, we decided to go with the Spartan Strong workout.  This was a SERIOUS workout!  If you haven’t done Spartan races before, this is a great way to get a sneak peek of what they entail.  The thing I loved about it is that there was a lot of partner and/or teamwork.  These little weighted “pancakes” were the star of the show and worked us in so many ways!  The whole group gets going and everyone is working together.  It was awesome sweatin’ it out with everyone as there was a feeling of camaraderie when we were all done!

Finally, after our sweat sesh, we walked around the club, sipped on beer + wine and had some lite bites from the Life Cafe.  Everything was delicious and was nice to know that all the options are healthy, especially when you’re trying to stick with a nutrition plan.  If you don’t have time to sit down after a workout, they have a case of healthy grab-n-go options as well as a variety of snack bars.

All in all, Life Time Athletics is an EXCELLENT place that has thought of all the details for someone who is looking looking for the ultimate luxury health club experience.   For more information on membership, check out their website here!
