Lucille Roberts
A gym created for women, by women.
BACKGROUND
Before there was Curves, there was Lucille Roberts, a health club exclusively for women that has been around for almost 40 years. For many women, one of the greatest exercise challenges is working out in front of other men. The Lucille Roberts fitness gyms are a perfect fit for women who are not comfortable at co-ed gyms. With its all-female member base and staff, these gyms offer a practical and healthy solution for women who want to get in shape, but don’t want to do it in front of scores of bench-pressing men.
The founder, Lucille Roberts, is no stranger to health. Her passion for merging motherhood and fitness for women led to her decision to provide day care at her women's health clubs. She has also authored two books, "Computercise" and "The Lucille Roberts 14 Day Makeover"
.
The Lucille Roberts’ fitness clubs don’t just feature exercise equipment, but weight loss programs, weight loss products and personal training that is targeted to help you lose weight or get in shape.
Unlike other gym club memberships, which have different levels of memberships for varying prices, Lucille Roberts offers its entire female patrons one price for unlimited access to the facilities. The cost of a membership is considerably less than many of the other larger and more commercial fitness clubs.
If you live in the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania areas, you’re in luck. There are 45 different locations for Lucille Roberts in these three states. If you don’t, you’ll have to wait until a Lucille Roberts opens up closer to your neck-of-the-woods.

EXERCISE
As a member of Lucille Roberts, you will have access to all of the group fitness classes as well as all of the state-of-the-art cardio and strength training equipment. Group fitness classes will vary depending on your location but some of the classes that are offered include, pilates, belly dancing, dance aerobics, basic boot camp, salsa aerobics and yoga.
Personal trainers are also available to customize a weight loss plan and exercise program for you that is tailored to your needs and lifestyle.
EXPENSE
Depending upon your location, a Lucille Roberts one-year membership, which includes 12 additional free months, is between $299 - $399, plus a registration fee. You can also sign-up for a two-year commitment for $10 - $20 per month in addition to a registration fee.
CONCLUSION
The Lucille Roberts fitness gyms were created decades before exercising became so popular for optimal health. As a pioneer in exercise fitness, Lucille Roberts has helped millions of women get in shape, lose weight and feel comfortable doing it.
But if you thrive off the male energy in gyms, then these fitness centers may not be your ticket to a better body and better health. Also, the limited locations of the Lucille Roberts clubs make then inaccessible for those living out of the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania areas.
