Garston Lifestyles Fitness Centre

Been several times using the gym which is ok. Began doing longer sessions so went to use the gents showers. OMG fithy overspilling urinals dirty floor covered in litter and the smell was rank. Felt more dirty after the shower. Dont use the male showers total HEALTH RISK. Steamroom also grotty and changing rooms dirty and even foung a used nappy in one. Will not be going back HEALTH RISK.

As part of Liverpool Council’s Lifestyles range of sports centres and gyms, you can see the money and effort that has been put into this place to bring it into the 21^st Century and make it an integral part of the community.
The centre has been here for nearly 30 years and was greatly underused except for the many football parties I went to as a kid! Now the gyms are kitted out with state of the art gear, there are regular fitness classes for all levels in the sports hall, two decent sized astro-​turfs can be found at the front — and if they are not being used by the local kids they seem to attract a lot of 5-​a-​side — and a good size pool with sauna and steam room.
I can’t really knock the place because it is well cheap and is obviously doing a very good job at placing itself at the heart of the Garston community, however, this also measn that the place can be very busy at peak times and it is often very hard to judge when it will not be full of kids! The pool always seems to have school groups or out of hours swimming clubs. While this commendable they also seem to find their way into the gym and will often hang around — or off — much of the equipment!
But there is a waterslide!

Lifestyles Garston is fully equipped with a Lifestyles fitness suite, pool and has a huge range of sports and leisure activities on offer.
The centre’s lifestyles fitness suite provides the ultimate fitness experience using state of the art equipment. It also includes a separate women only gym.
If you like swimming for fun, then here is the place to come, especially with children as it has a water chute any child would die for. As you would expect, this is really a practical place for youngsters to make a splash! If you want to avoid children jumping in and meandering aimlessly, it is perhaps not a good idea to come here particularly when children are on their holidays.
Garston is a fantastic leisure centre, not the biggest but good in terms of quality and cleanliness. I used to play badminton every week here and had no problems or issues with the court, showers and changing rooms.
