XSport Fitness

Dirty and run down. A staple that they tried to use to put new leather on a machine seat had popped right out and cut my leg. Machines are awful, hard to use. The rubber floor is peeling upstairs. Bathrooms are consistently unsanitary. Hair in showers, soap residue, stalls are dirty, frequently no soap or toilet paper. And See photos below of a shattered sign (that literally says do a visual inspection), and glass shards left sitting on equipment. Third photo was what I walked into the locker room to see last week! Fourth photo is medical tape with a weight written in pen so that you can attempt to know how much you’re lifting. Embarassing. Such a mess. The only good Xsport locally is the Carol Stream location.

This gym is in POOR shape. Is the owner in this country? Smells like sewage, machines are broken, sauna broken, hot tub has light hanging out and water is brown, floors are very muddy, ceilings in pool room have a hole in them?? I mean come on??.. I could go on. I cancelled my membership. Planet fitness is way better run. Like Way better.

Maybe 3.5 stars… Listen. You get what you pay for. Don’t expect to get CrossFit gym or pvt gym level stuff when +75% of the people pay less than $20/mo. The gym has about everything you need and isn’t crazy busy. Things move decently through the different equipment. Like most places things would move faster if ppl spent half the time they did on their phones or in the mirrors. It’s nice that there is a pool and hottube. Locker rooms aren’t bad. It’s worth the money and I can do my sets and get in and out within an hour fairly decently.

High pressure sales gimmick during sign up where with a borderline inappropriate comment from the manager. However, I did end up buying some personal training sessions. The trainer was also unprofessional…on his phone during the workout, went to the bathroom, then put me on the stair climber and walked out of the building after saying “I’ll meet you over there.” The workout was not worth my time at all, 4 sets of 10 hammer curls, 4 sets of 10 bicep curls, 4 sets of lat pull downs and 30 min on stair climber. Not worth the money I paid. Im all about pushing myself in the gym but 4 days later, I still cant fully straighten my arm and its very uncomfortable. I complained and was given a refund for the sessions. Another employee…possibly higher management for the region… who was there listened to me and validated my concerns. I appreciated that, but also think others should be warned about this place. Im sure there are better trainers there but I had a bad experience.

Starting at a new gym can be intimidating. Not so at XSport fitness in St Charles! The staff is amazingly helpful ….considering my endless questions. I am able to attend a variety of classes ~ which was sorely lacking at my last gym ~ followed by a number of spa like services. I have come to enjoy my daily routine far beyond my expectations! Thank you so much!
