It can be as simple as you want it to be- if you come to strive and follow their plan you are 100% guaranteed results.The best part is, this gym is a community. And you will grow beyond just the physical progress. Cam and his team are the best in the city!!

I started going to Strive after recovering from a surgery that left me feeling weak and out-of-shape. Cam and Mando were patient with my progress and knew just how hard to push me. Now, I feel strong and confident in my body again. The sessions are challenging, the energy is awesome, and you leave feeling extremely accomplished. I look forward to my sessions every week.

Strive is the real deal. If you’re looking to lift weights, work hard and push yourself, come here. No BS and the energy is contagious. So thankful for finding this crew.

I have been a Strive client for 5 years now. It is indisputably the best strength & conditioning workout you will get in Chicago. The facilities themselves are state of the art (I've been to both River North and Western Springs) and you won't find the same equipment in big box gyms or even other boutique strength training gyms. While a 45 minute session may not seem like much to you, once you've done a Strive session and you will understand that you were simply wasting time before. The trainers are setting up your weights, ensuring fast transitions, and giving little rest. Mental toughness is the name of the game. Expect to be pushed to your limits & show up ready to work. If you want to be challenged every single week - this is your place! I wouldn't still be a client after 5 years if that wasn't the case for me. You also can't go wrong with any trainer that works at Strive. 10/10 recommend.

I've been going to Strive for the past year and I have so much love for this place. My trainer Armando (and all of the trainers) provide 1:1 attention, are dedicated to proving results with their clients and push you to the best of your ability. The facility and overall environment are top notch. I tried different personal trainers all over Chicago for years until I got connected with Strive and there has been no turning back. I can't say enough good things about Strive Village!

I've been going to Strive for almost a year now and it is the hardest workout I've ever done, in the best way possible. The trainers push you beyond what you think you are capable of to ensure you reach your goals. I've never been stronger and I owe it all to Strive, specifically Armando. An overall great community to be a part of.

Strive is the best place to train in Chicago! The trainers are motivating, caring, and push you very hard. I have been going there for only 2 months and already feel way stronger and in better shape. Great experience so far!

Without a doubt THE BEST place to train in Chicago. (And I’ve been to 100+ different gyms.) The trainers are incredible: motivating, knowledgeable, and challenging in the best way possible. Cannot recommend highly enough. If you want to increase your physical performance in any way, and experience all the benefits of a strong, healthy, fit body — for any age or gender — this is the place to go.

Strive Village will work you harder than anywhere else. I’ve been going once a week for nearly 2 years and it has completely changed my life. AND I’ve learned so much to integrate into my own workouts that without I wouldn’t be nearly as far into my fitness journey as I am now. Cam and all of the guys are the best!!!!

I absolutely LOVE Strive Village and the team here! Cam, Armando, Kendall and Brandon are the dream team! I have been coming twice a week for over a year, and I look forward to our sessions every week. They push you hard! Be ready for an intense workout every time you show up. I love these guys!

You don’t come here to workout. You come here to change your mindset about fitness. You push your limits mentally and physically each time. The 1:1 personal training is unmatched and truly makes you feel savage. Since 2019, every workout feels like I’m learning something new about how hard I can push myself. Plus, the team at the Village makes you feel like family. I can’t recommend this place more. Come for the savagery, stay for the family.

Strive Village is hands down the best personal training experience in the city - all of the trainers care about their clients and go out of their way to push you out of your comfort zone while being mindful of your individual needs. Cam has created a culture that is inviting and doesn't feel intimidating. His entire team is approachable and fun to work with - I'd recommend this gym to anyone looking to feel their best.

Take your training to the next level at Strive Village. Training involves a fundamental approach to strength and conditioning while challenging you to uncover your physical and mental limits. All fitness levels are welcomed at Strive Village. If your goal is to improve your health or train for an event, Strive Village will cater and adapt a fitness routine for you. I have been working out at Strive Village for about 3 years and each trainer’s attention to detail and focus on their clients is above any other one on one training session I have experienced. On day 1 each trainer, whether you work with them or not, makes an effort to get to know you. Don’t be surprised from the moment you walk into the door someone is welcoming you by name. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to start a personal training regimen with a group of trainers who are for sure to help you achieve your goals.
