Fitness & Gyms near Countryside, IL

“Good gym, couldn’t ask for much more in such a small package. No, no pool, no sauna, no tanning… but if you’re trying to push some weight, they have all you could need.Couple machines have quickly become all time favorites of mine.”

“Worked with Dylan and he was very helpful in helping get myself as well as others signed up on a family plan. Appreciated his patience, ability to answer my questions and execution.

To my knowledge, no towels are provided for if you use any of the spa like features (pool, jacuzzi, sauna) and there are no locks provided for lockers. Those are my two wishes as of right now, but overall appreciate this location, its amenities and cleanliness!”

Amazing CrossFit gym with great coaches and a very welcoming community. Workouts are challenging but scalable, and the atmosphere keeps you motivated. Highly recommend!”

“I've known Coach Alex and Dania for about 8 years now, and I can't forget to mention Rudy and Khalid! I've trained with them on and off throughout the years, and I always find myself coming back. From the moment you walk into the gym, they make you feel like family and genuinely care about helping you get better! Their knowledge, experience, and teaching ability are truly top-notch. Whether you're just starting your Jiu Jitsu journey or looking to take your training to the next level, you're in great hands here! I would give them 10 out of 10 stars! P.S. Dont tell them when it's your Birthday ??”

“Great gym and leadership group. Terrific experience for all ages. Being part of the iron flag community is extremely motivating compared to prior gym experiences.”

“Great class at CrossFit Salire. Heather was an attentive, knowledgeable coach who focused on proper form and was always happy to answer questions. Highly recommend.”

“If you are looking for a new fitness studio, look no further. Chris creates such a positive workout environment. He’s very helpful and I highly recommend him for personal training.”

“What a great place to work out! I look forward to attending classes at this gym. And I’ve never felt that about a gym after a few months! It’s the class size, almost personalized coaching, the option to use the gym by yourself, all of which make it worth the membership here.”

“Dr.Ryan is so knowledgeable. He has an evidence approach (labs)to functional medicine. But also thinks outside the box.He treats everyone individually, listens and shares helpful information about overall health.”

“I've been consistent for about 6 months and noticed improvements to my strength as well as my self-confidence. Welcoming group with a variety of athletic ability and age. Whether you're beginner in your 40's, a college aged MMA fighter or 5 year old looking for boxing class; there's something for everyone!”

“I was never someone who enjoyed fitness—in fact, even walking up a flight of stairs would leave me winded. But OrangeTheory completely changed that for me. It’s the only workout program that’s kept me motivated, consistent, and actually excited to show up.

Coach Hector is phenomenal. His energy is contagious, and his encouragement pushes you to go further than you thought possible. Walking into one of his classes is truly an experience—there’s a vibe that lifts you the moment you step in.

Coach Kaci is equally incredible. Her passion for what she does shines through every class. She’s always supportive, attentive, and ensures you’re doing the exercises safely and effectively.

The workouts deliver real results, but what sets OrangeTheory apart is the amazing community. You’re not just joining a gym—you’re meeting inspiring coaches and connecting with new friends who cheer you on every step of the way.”

“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Fitcode. From the quality of the workouts to the welcoming atmosphere and supportive coaches, it has been an excellent experience overall. I’ve taken classes with several different coaches and every one of them has been professional, encouraging and motivating.”

“so so so happy i joined! everyone is so welcoming. the coaches give great tips and tricks. the price matches the quality of the workout and the burn you feel, making you feel accountable and motivated. music is also a big 10/10.”

“I have been coming to BBC westmont for a little over 2 months and I am IN LOVE! The trainers are incredibly personable and high energy. AND free child watch that my kids love going to… Worth every penny!!!!”

“This place is a sick old style gym.
Has lots of barbells, enough racks, maybe too much cardio. Only saw one deadlift zone and it seem tight for space. But it's still a great gym
Cheap daypass.”

“I have been part of CrossFit for over 3 years, and it's a wonderful community with great instructors.

I joined the nutrition program and I'm grateful for Coach Estefania’s guidance in understanding a healthy lifestyle, being mindful of our dietary choices, and their impact on our bodies. Taking small steps can make a significant and HUGE difference.
Comparing my blood before starting the nutrition plan and after was eye-opening. My glucose levels are normal, as well as the AST and ALT levels for my fatty live. ❤️?”

“Great workouts! I love how you can track your progress on benchmarks. I also love how you can see how many calories you’re burning and splat points you’ve earned during the class. Staff and instructors are great. 2G classes are my favorite.”

“How does it start?With an email or a phone call.How does it end?Don’t know. Still going here six months later.Ian and Emily are AMAZING people. That’s easy enough to say, but let me back it up.I took the leap and sent an email to them that I had never really lifted weights. I mostly did cardio exercises. Ian responded promptly and set up a phone call to discuss what goes on at their gym. The first personal training session was free so I tried it.You know that thing that you eat that you can’t put down once you try some. That’s what this was like except way more expensive. It makes you stop and think, but ultimately the question you have to ask yourself is what would you pay to be HEALTHY and HAPPY each week?Ian works with you to create a workout plan that FITS WHAT YOU WANT including workouts for days when you’re at home or your regular gym. He’s there to give you ADVICE on nutrition and eating/drinking right for your goals. It’s up to you on what you decide to do and he doesn’t care whether you take his advice or not. He’s the same regardless. Scheduling is flexible and is done personally via texts. That’s right, you have contact with Ian even when you’re not working out with him and you have normal conversations. HE'S INVESTING HIS TIME IN MAKING YOU A BETTER PERSON.From a workout perspective, there are a variety of workouts that you end up doing and they will repeat. You’re there to get progressive gains over time and the only way to do that is to repeat the workouts on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. When you hit a plateau, he’ll change it up and you’ll do different workouts for a little while. At the end of each session is a random 5 minute variety of exercises that are more intense than the rest of the workout. “The Finisher” as Ian calls them. That said, I’ve never left a workout overly sore to the point where I can’t function the next day. As you do more and more workouts and they repeat, you might ask yourself “Why do I still need to come here?” “Couldn’t I do this myself now?”IT'S NOT JUST A WORKOUT. It’s life, and that’s one of the best parts is the conversations with Ian about anything and everything. Ian has been one of the most influential people in my life. This comes from discussions about future life goals, careers, philosophical questions, book recommendations, etc. The monumental change he’s made in my life from a mental perspective is something he probably doesn’t realize and something I don't know that I can ever overstate. I don’t know that everyone can expect that, but I do know that you can expect the workout you have at i.e. Fitness to be one of the highlights of your week. As I mentioned before he’s invested his time in making you a better person and he will push you to be better. He will give you that motivation to try harder when you don’t want to or think that you can’t do something. He will push you to your limits, but not push you over them.I know what you're thinking. What about Emily? While I've never worked out with her, I've been lucky enough to be at the gym when she's working out with someone or just stopping by the gym. She's a nice person who brings an energetic atmosphere to the gym with a bubbly personality albeit terrible taste in music :). It is thanks to her I have never been more nervous to lose to a six year old kid and I'm pretty sure she's the reason Ian is so great.If you've gotten this far, my RECOMMENDATION to you is to TAKE THAT FIRST FREE SESSION and then decide for yourself what you think is the best thing for you in your life.Have an amazing day!”

“Jordan is excellent! My son is a soccer player and Jordan has been a huge part of his success in the last year. Jordan has taught him how to weight lift correctly for his age and body type too, and that has made a huge difference too.”

“I came to USA Gym wanting to build a stage-worthy physique.

Chuck heard that and immediately declared war on my body.

Now I’m stronger, my glutes have their own zip code, and my grocery bill is 90% chicken.

Five stars. 10/10. 2 thumbs up. Highly recommend.

Also Michelle is a bombshell and is my gym crush.”

“Felt great to be back!
I was a member for a few years just before covid.
But, have since bought my own treadmill and workout at home a lot. Felt like I needed a more intense and structured workout with various strength exercises thrown in. So glad I went this morning!
I think I will stick with the occasional drop-in class for now.”

“When I decided to make the commitment to becoming a better version of myself, I was 265lbs standing around 6’4”. My life was out of control as far as my physical and mental health was concerned and I knew if I loved the people around me as well as myself that I would do something about this and fast! Fast forward to the present and I am now 190lbs, still standing at 6’4”, but feeling stronger and better than I have ever felt in my entire life! And if it wasn’t for the motivation, the encouragement, the direction I was given when I signed up with O2 fitness and nutrition, I would have been in some serious trouble. Paola and Matt have taught me so much about my body, physically and mentally through exercise and nutrition. And this whole journey was never about finding that next quick fix- lose weight fast kind of thing, it was truly learning how to implement a New life style for me that’ll benefit my health so I can always be there for my wife and family. So as far as reviews go, if you’re finding yourself struggling with committing to changing your life for the better, put your trust in O2 Fitness and Nutrition where they genuinely care about your personal goals and development!”

“I have been. A member for awhile over the years. Staff is wonderful. Equipment is awsome. Best part is the indoor track and they have an outdoor pool and a indoor heated pool. Familie oriented all ages lots of classes offered. Everyone who goes there is very friendly. Great place.”

“What a blast! Was referred by my taekwondo master. The trainers make the class so much fun, great personal attention for technique & form, great music…very clean, and a wonderful atmosphere! Love it, so thankful to the team of instructors - if you’re thinking about fitness give it a try- cozier than a large gym and each class is varied, full body workouts. Thanks ENRG!!! B”

“Emily the instructor is hands down the best instructor! Keeps you pushing you to go past your limit!! First time ever and had the best experience! Def recommend for everyone esp if you’re trying to get healthy and fit!”

“RC Fitness has helped me make the most impactful changes to my health. The owner Ross and the other coaches are extremely knowledgeable and actively monitor form and technique which, as a person with hypermobility, has been critical to keep me safe. This gym is very inclusive of people from a wide range of backgrounds and experience levels. Everyone is so supportive of each other. They build weekly workout plans that help encourage you safely toward new goals. Strongly recommend.”

“F45, in Elmhurst, is an absolutely amazing place to start or continue your whole body, mind and spirit health routine. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and make sure your training is specific to you, meeting you where you are and challenging you from there. The supportive climate and culture of this community motivates and inspires! You never feel alone in this group style fitness as we operate as a team, beyond the 45 minutes in the gym! Highly recommend!”

“Wonderful YMCA!!! There's a pool, basketball court, workout gym with EVERYTHING, free weights, universal weights, sauna, steam shower, treadmills, ellipticals, There's even an ICE RINK! I've fallen in love at first experience getting a membership here. Awesome.”

“I’ve always been a little nervous about working out, especially in group settings, but this gym has completely changed my experience. The small group training setup makes it feel really comfortable and not overwhelming at all.

What I appreciate most is how much attention the trainers Shawn , Jenna , Bridget, Andrea ( ones I’ve worked with ) give to everyone. They really focus on form and technique, and you can tell they genuinely care about helping you improve safely. They’re also incredibly knowledgeable and take the time to explain things in a way that actually makes sense.

The atmosphere is welcoming and supportive, which has made it so much easier for me to stay consistent. I never feel judged, just encouraged. If you’re someone who’s a bit intimidated by fitness or just wants more personalized guidance, I’d definitely recommend giving this place a try.”
