Chicagoland Fat Loss Camps

Expected to feel welcomed on my weight loss journey instead I felt extremely ostracized! As if I was an alien the constant stares were awful and they ridiculed me for attempting to better myself! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE!

( Chicago location) Overall the class was great until the instructor slaps my butt! As a first time client this was highly inappropriate, embarrassing, and completely unprofessional! I don’t know anyone in the class nor the instructor and to do this in front of the class was ridiculous.This is not football/ basketball and this did not make me comfortable at alll! Definitely not going back !

Amazing Place! I was able to Loose 60lbs working out at this gym! It's a non-traditional gym so they don't have any machines. They are so supportive and help you loose weight and build lean muscle every step of the way. The Fat Loss Family Concept is so inspiring & motivating!

Hey I just want to say as a coach this whole place should be shut down. They give their clients unregulated " fat loss pills". They don't just throw one at you, they give you a total of 12 pills to take a day. These pills are unregulated and not lab tested. So you literally dont have any idea what your taking. Which to me is unethical to play with peoples lives and money. Will these pills give you cancer? Or are they just placebo? I dont know but I'm going to get them tested by a lab and see. Also The "roll over" is a selling scheme that isn't legitimate. They tell their victims aka clients that the money will "roll over" if they hit their unrealistic goal. Which over 80% do not hit because it is not physically possible nor is it safe to lose that much weight in a month.

this was my favorite place to go to in the 70s. now all you see are privileged teenagers making TikTok videos

Planet Fitness

Spoke to the new manager, Eric, and he seems very dedicated to making the Planet Fitness experience positive and enjoyable. He listened to me and I felt valued. Additionally, this particular Planet Fitness is light and bright and the members are friendly. Best $10 I spend every month.

Too much cardio, but that's just the PF way.
Overall the gym is great super clean one of the new 24/7 spots. Only cons are the drink cooler which is somehow always empty, the water fountain on the men's bathroom side is super slow and the water tastes like it's straight from the toilet, and 1 machine is broken every day minimum.
Solid place though 👍👍👍

First time at this location and it leaves up to it's marketing initiative that it it a clean gym.

Been coming here a lot. It is very clean. However, I strongly suggest to do some dusting away from people. There are people who are allergic to dust. Will keep coming despite this little inconvenience.

Empty drink cooler, except one drink type. Nothing else. I asked when they would refill, and the reply was, “I don’t know. Maybe next week. You would have to ask a manager.” Equipment has torn portions, and they don’t repair it/replace it. Leg machines have had “out of order” signs on them for weeks. You get what you pay for I guess. I’ve had better experiences at Xsport and La Fitness, at similar price points. No frills.

Typical gym atmosphere. But the music is really loud. I asked if anyone had mentioned about how loud the music was and front desk said no. It’s so loud I can barely hear my music. Wish they have more stair masters. There’s  only 4 and it’s always hard to get one. As soon as I see someone get off I stop at whatever workout I do and jump on to the stair master.

Staff are fine, some of them have issues with yelling but if i worked there id hate life too. The equipment literally has rust on it and for some reason the place smells like old urine. The members, wow, talk about 99% of them are only there to play with their phones. Kids, under the age of 13 in there alone.  Its such a shame. If the equipment was cleaned up and cared for and there were more members that trained it would be better.

This location is not the best PF location I've been to. The gym is very packed, especially in the afternoon on the weekdays. My biggest issue with that is the fact that there are only 4 smith machines at this PF. It is almost impossible to find an available smith machine without waiting in line for one. I've been to 2 other locations that are not as busy and have a smaller layout where they had 6 smith machines. This location is large enough to receive more smith machines and would greatly improve the overall gym experience for many people who go here.

My 1st time at this location and it not impressive at all. All the dumbbells on the racks are rusted and loose at the ends. The chest flying machine is also rusted that I almost fell to the floor because the chains on the seat couldn't lock due to its rustiness. I made a complaint to the front desk person, surprisingly they're aware of all the bad and rusted machines but they just don't care. The place is also not well kept, 😷 I will not recommend this location, planet fitness corporate must do something about this. One persons subscription can fix this mess.

My favorite gym location. Lincoln Park.            It’s clean and the staff is professional & friendly. This gyms equipment is always clean and working great.

I visited this club location today. The woman at the desk was very friendly and gave me a tour. There were machines available and the environment appeared clean. I was about to sign up, but the "application fee" was $14.94 and not the $10 stated on this location's website. Sales tax does not explain the difference nor is there any mention of a fee variance on the website.  I decided not to join. If there are discrepancies at the outset, it does not bode well for future interactions. Too bad, I liked the club.

Anytime Fitness

This Anytime Fitness location is such a great addition to the neighborhood! The facility is clean, spacious, and well appointed - everything you need for almost any kind of workout. I’ve found other Anytime Fitness locations to be small and cramped but that’s not the case here. The owners and staff are wonderful people and everyone is friendly and terrific to work with. I initially came in for solo workouts, but really needed further accountability and motivation to get my workouts done so I joined the group fitness classes and couldn’t be happier. The classes cater to all skill sets and are a great way to stay active, get stronger, and connect with others in the neighborhood. Highly recommend this gym!

I have been a member of this gym for 3 years now. I take the small group training classes. The Coaches are fabulous!!! They have helped me so much. I was able to get strong and prepared for a spinal fusion surgery, and they taught me everything I needed to be able to come back from my surgery and back to the gym. The were instrumental in my successful recovery. I would give you 6 stars if i could.

I have been a member since 2019. I love taking the small group fitness classes.  I have lost almost 10 lbs and built muscle. It's a fun, inclusive community feel.  Mike, Coach Bry, Chloe, and team are the best!

Visiting Chicago and I was pleased to find this gym a short drive from our Ravenswood rental. Plenty of free parking on the street and a small nearby lot at 7am on a Sunday morning.
There were a half dozen patrons in there at any time during my workout, so plenty of room and no competition for space and equipment.
This gym size and equipment selection is very comparable to all 4 of the the Anytime Fitness locations I've been to, which makes it easy to execute your planned work-out without too much hunting and pecking. The key fob works just the same, too.
All the equipment were in good shape, and the place was clean and in orderly condition.

Love this gym!! Trainers are great and the group HIIT classes are awesome. There is such a wonderful community of friends, and work out buddies in this place.

Rush Fitness Center

Super friendly staff, very accommodating, good equipment, very clean and quite fancy. Price is super good as well. Definitely recommend.

Small but a nice gym to get a decent workout.  They provide towels and the gym is clean.

The lady during the evening hours is not only rude but also unprofessional. The initial announcement was to close the gym in 5 mins, then suddenly it was now the gym is closed. When i asked about the discrepancy in announcement. She said we close sharp at 9:30am and if you have any questions complain to the manager, which most definitely i will. The issue was not the timeline, it was the way its being communicated. It felt embarrassing and rude.

Nice clean gym for Rush employees and students. To expand, the gym is a really great place to workout. You will run into people you know and be introduced to a wide variety of people that do all sorts of things at Rush. As for the equipment, it's a bit cardio heavy, however, any lifts you can think of can be done with the provided equipment with a few modifications. There is an assortment of classes from HIIT to yoga. There truly is a sense of community and everyone is quite helpful if you are starting out or a seasoned gym goer.

Fit City Kids

We had the best two-hour party!

Only my wife and I were trying to figure out how to deal with more than 30 people at our first party in places like it, but the crew from Fit City Kids did a fantastic job helping us set the room up, hosting, and even helping to clean up.

From the manager to the awesome crew, from the reception to our helpers, I have no words to say, but thank you so much for giving my daughter the best party and for us to enjoy it.

Good on you guys!

We have thrown two birthday parties at Fit City Kids and absolutely love that we can rent out the facility completely and also have the flexibility to bring in our own food and drinks (including adult beverages!).  The staff is so helpful. They're complete professionals since set up time between parties can be tight - they sprang into action laying out tablecloths, cutting/passing out cake, rounding up the kids for pizza and finally packing presents and party supplies. Everything was flawless!

My 7 year old and 5 year old boys were also more than happy to show off the skills they’ve picked up in their basketball classes at Fit City with Coach Aaron and Coach Brad!  The coaches are super fun, motivating, supportive and engaging.  Coach Aaron has such a great inclusive teaching style and is amazing with kids and pushes them without pressuring them. Both of my kids are genuinely enjoying learning the fundamentals of basketball at Fit City! Highly recommend taking a trial class!

What an amazing place to celebrate. The owners have done an amazing job recruiting an incredible crew and team of helpful, polite, diligent and proactive people that make the celebrations and set up easy. It’s a tight schedule and their help is a blessing. They are on top of everything. Communicating and helping with the party plan.
The establishment is amazing, I got many compliments on the place, the people and the equipment.
What a great place this is to celebrate. Worth every penny, something for all ages where families with multiple children can enjoy at ease their kids having fun play.

Natalia!

We love Fit City Kids! Our kids come here often to burn energy. The facilities are always super clean and not too crowded, and there's enough variety to keep our kids entertained every time we come. We also recently hosted a birthday party here and it was a great, smooth experience. Staff was very available to help with anything and everything, and the kids had a blast. Thank you Fit City Kids! We love having you in the neighborhood.

We recently hosted our daughter's 5th birthday party at Fit City Kids and I cannot recommend this place enough! Booking online was easy and straightforward, and Brad and Kiersten were very communicative throughout the entire process. On the day of the party, the entire staff was attentive and super helpful. They even provided us with tablecloths once I realized we had forgotten about them. We had 34 total guests and the adjoining party rooms provided plenty of space. And unlike some kid-friendly venues, this place allows you to bring alcohol, which was a huge plus :)

BODYBAR Pilates - Wicker Park

This was my first time in and therefore my first class. Everyone was very friendly, welcoming and showed me around. There were a few other newbies in class so they prepared us for what’s to come throughout class and to get comfortable on the reformers. I took Emily’s Classic class which was slower paced and perfect for an intro class! She gave modifications while also explaining how to deepen the workout. I’m excited to check out more classes and I’ll definitely be back to Emily’s class!

I have been LOVING the classes at Body Bar. Today was my second class with Kimberly: she’s thorough and supportive and very clear about the positioning and moves on the reformer (which is great for a chubster beginner like me!). I’ve taken mainly the Classic classes to get used to the machines but the Reformer classes are an intense workout—but I’m a good way. Thanks for having me!

If you’re on the fence—take that first class free! There’s also a great 3/$75 deal going on right now which is totally worth it!

Bodybar is the best for any level of difficulty. I started my Pilates journey here and have fell in love ever since. The staff is beyond amazing and I can’t imagine working out anywhere else!

Bodybar is awesome bc they offer different classes, all of which are great. All the employees here are so nice and friendly. There’s never any judgment here, love that so much. Kimberly’s classes are amazing. She is such a knowledgeable and helpful instructor, also plays the best music. Highly recommend taking her classes!

I have been going to BodyBar since they opened their location in Wicker Park earlier this year and I love it! I was new to Pilates when I joined and the instructors have been a huge part of me loving my workouts. The classes offer a great variety and the instructors are skilled at talking/showing every movement so I get the most out of each workout!

Midtown Athletic Club

THE BEST FAMILY FRIENDLY CLUB IN CHICAGO!
The Reasonable Competitive Pricing is one of the reasons for Negative Comments. ITS OK IF YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT, there’s other options like Planet Fitness or Xsport Fitness which both have become Bathing facilities for the masses. The Children at Midtown make the facility feel like a big Family. It’s sad to read neg comments about kids enjoying their memberships. The outdoor pool season has come to an end and glad to say it was nice to witness a  fun successful playful summer in action. Come check out THE #1 GYM IN CHICAGO for yourself and ignore the sharp criticism from the minority of tight budgeted negative commenters. MIDTOWN IS FAMILY AND FRIENDS APPROVED !

Yikes, talk about going downhill..you would hope this organization had a higher level of integrity with its grossly inflated membership fees. Their GMs (constant turnover) and their questionable choices reflect a genuine lack of care for simple honesty, honoring their word or caring about their clients, its rather disturbing. Even documented commitments are not honored. Sadly, it’s no longer a Midtown family, today Midtown seems to prioritize greed and their ego. They don’t seem to care about what they used to, the people. And yet, they keep raising membership fees as though they aren’t outrageous enough. It’s too bad, it was once my happy place. Greed ruins a lot 🥲

New member and so far I like it a lot. There ARE TWO things Midtown needs. ....a high powered whirl pool in the women's locker room....what is a spa experience without a whirlpool? I don't care at all for sharing a whirlpool with men. Period.
And.....an indoor running track is also a high necessity.

Also..... if Midtown would please have a puppy daycare / boot camp for members' pups while they work out. That would be AWESOME and cutting edge. My two pitty pups and I would LOVE that.
Midtown! = please consider :)

My experience at Midtown has been amazing. Good amount of workout machines, very clean, great staff, great cocktails for those days 😀. The staff at the the front desk lobby makes me feel welcome at all the time. The staff at the spa is wonderful, my hairstylist Rebecca she AWESOME!!! I would love to try all the classes, but I’m too busy, hopefully one day though 😉.
Thank you to the team who makes all the things possible and kept us safe and healthy throughout the pandemic. THANK YOU!!

I've been a proud member of Midtown Athletic Club for nearly two years now, and let me tell you, it's nothing short of spectacular. To me, Midtown is the country club of the city, offering an unparalleled fitness experience that's worth every penny.

The first thing you'll notice is the top-notch equipment - it's like a fitness enthusiast's dream come true. The gym is meticulously maintained, shining like a beacon of cleanliness. The staff? Well, they're the true MVPs - always attentive, friendly, and ready to lend a helping hand.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Midtown is that you'll never find yourself twiddling your thumbs waiting for a machine. It's a seamless experience, a testament to the careful planning that goes into ensuring every member can make the most of their time.

Now, let's address the elephant in the room - the membership fees. Yes, they're on the steeper side, but consider it an investment in your peace of mind. This isn't just a gym; it's a sanctuary free from any lurking creeps or social media fiends. The members here take their fitness seriously, and it shows.

But here's a little secret: Midtown isn't just about pumping iron. The on-site restaurant is a hidden gem. The food is nothing short of fantastic, and the staff there rival any five-star establishment. Many times, I've found myself heading over just for a meal, and it never disappoints.

What sets Midtown apart, however, is the vibe. It's an atmosphere of dedication and camaraderie that's contagious. There's a sense of purpose here that's truly inspiring. And with a limited membership, you'll never face the dreaded gym rush hour - it's like having your own private fitness haven.

Sure, there's a waiting list for new members, but I see that as a testament to Midtown's commitment to maintaining its unique atmosphere. It's a place where quality takes precedence over quantity, and it makes all the difference.

In a nutshell, Midtown Athletic Club isn't just a gym - it's an experience. If you're looking for a fitness sanctuary that combines world-class facilities, impeccable service, and a supportive community, this is the place to be. Trust me, you won't regret it.

StretchLab

I had my first session at Stretch lab today. Sasha is great! Really personalized my session to my individual needs. I then went on to have one of the best 6.5 mile runs ever! Going to have to make this a part of my program!!

It was my first time to a Stretch Lab and it was I was looking for and more. The staff was welcoming and friendly upon arriving. The studio was very clean and aesthetically pleasing with nice paintings in the wall. And Sasha, was my amazing - she was very knowledgeable and stretched me gently, yet stretching me as far as I advised her too. I felt amazing after leaving and looking forward to going back next week!

I was curious about the stretch lab and went to check it out. All of the staff was nice. The place is clean and nice. I got an assessment about my current physical strength and getting to work with Peter on my muscles was nice. I recommend this place and specially Peter who took the time to listen to my concerns and addressed them.

Wasn't sure what to expect when I tried it out, but it's been a great experience. I'm already seeing several improvements in how I feel and my overall flexibility. I've had some back issues that have seen significant improvement the more often I visit. Peter at the Wicker Park location has been awesome and my go-to guy.

I’ve been working with Sasha K. since the location opened. She’s really knowledgeable and explains what & why she’s doing as she is helping me become a more flexible, better stretcher. My posture has improved and my body can bend like it couldn’t before. I will keep going!

I love getting stretched here! All the specialists are great and know exactly which stretches are going to hit those tight areas we all have. My body knows when I’ve missed a few sessions! Highly recommend

Evan was awesome. I have some good takeaway stretches from today's session and I'm looking forward to my next. There was great communication to make sure I was comfortable throughout the session. I don't remember the last time my hips weren't sore just sitting down and when I sat down in my car to drive home, it actually felt good to sit down. Thank you!

I’ve been going here weekly for about 6 weeks now and I am feeling a HUGE difference. I had muscle pain prior to going here, and Brian and Garrett have been a great help in making me feel better. My pain is subsiding, I’m able to start working out again and I’m feeling like myself. Highly recommended!

My first time at stretch lab was great! With my job and working out, I felt like I needed more of a better and longer stretch session and I’m so glad I booked this appointment. Ryan M. was so helpful and I definitely felt more relief afterwards.

Lupita is amazing!! She has really helped improve my flexibility and I continue to notice improvements. Highly recommend stretch lab and Lupita
