“I have so many positive thoughts about this place I don’t know where to start. This is easily the best gym I’ve been to since I started working out in 2016. The community and staff are unmatched, truly feels like a big family. From the day I walked in seeking a membership I felt extremely welcomed. As a female it’s hard finding gyms where you feel respected and not stared at by creepy old dudes and I immediately noticed a difference in mentality here. Everyone has a mutual respect for one another, everyone reracks their weights/cleans equipment. They have some newer booty builder equipment that isn’t found many other places as well as a posing room! The ONLY reason I left was we due to relocation issues and I’m so upset I had to leave ? this gym has me contemplating an hour drive just to be back somewhere I feel happy calling home”
“This gym was my personal intro to CrossFit. I had been out of a fitness routine for many years since having two kiddos. They made it accessible, low key and fun to get started. It’s inspiring to see folks of all ages and fitness levels supporting one another and pushing their bodies to build towards personal goals. I am almost two months in and so happy with my progress. I recommend this gym to anyone but especially those with a positive attitude who want a very nice community to get stronger with! ????”
“If I can give this club a higher star, I would! I joined think fit not too long ago and it’s the only gym that finally brought motivation into my life again to begin my fitness journey! Zee, the owner of the club, is absolutely amazing and makes everyone feel welcome! By far, the cleanest gym in the suburb! I recommend Think Fit to everyone! If you’re looking to get motivated and fit asap, think fit is the club for you.”
“Honestly it’s the best gym with the most amazing trainers, staff, and athletes I have ever met!!! Iron flag is my new family and my favorite gym of all time! I’ve been growing as a crossfit athlete and it’s been amazing! I can’t wait to see where I’ll be next year :)”
“All the trainers at Just Lift are beyond amazing! Everyone is well trained and knowledgeable. You call tell they care about each individual member’s performance and success.”

“I recently attended a class at Moonshot CrossFit and while it pushed me out of my comfort zone and left me feeling some soreness, I had an absolute blast. The class was well-designed, with a good balance of cardio and strength exercises. What truly stood out, though, was the ownership's enthusiasm and support. They created a welcoming atmosphere and encouraged everyone to give their all. Despite the pain, I left feeling accomplished and eager to return for more. Highly recommend!”

“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 recently changed gyms and I cannot be more impressed with how Burn Bootcamp welcomed me. The workouts are challenging and vary daily and the community supports everyone trying to excel to new levels. See you all tomorrow!

“everyone is great and classes kick your butt. unfortunately moved out of the area so unable to continue membership. will definitely be back if i’m ever back in the area”
“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.”

“I started to train with Crossfit Chisel, for about a month (on and off due to work schedule). It such a great community. Alot of the coaches and other folks make you feel comfortable. You get great support from others.
I never did a focus crossfit gym, so I was nervous to attend. I appreciate how the coaches don't rush you into getting the routine or complete the routine fast. To gradually build your endurance and strength. They want you to learn each routine/exercise, to take your time on each class session.focus on your own goals and not others.
Being there for a month I see great results. And continue to attend. To better my health for myself and family.”
“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!”

“Love this place! The coaches are so nice and they make the workouts fun. The space is perfect for the gym too, big enough to hold class and even a semi private area when running is scheduled. If you are in the area and looking for a place to drop in, this is the spot! Scott, the owner is a nice to work with too; really friendly and helpful.”

“I recently completed a P40 challenge program, and it was incredibly rewarding. The workouts were varied, challenging, and designed to help you progress without feeling repetitive. The nutrition and meal planning was convenient and easy to follow. Most importantly, supportive coaches and community kept me motivated, and the focus on both exercise and nutrition helped me make lasting changes.
The program pushed me to achieve great results, and the visible improvements in my fitness kept me going. It’s the perfect mix of physical challenge and positive motivation—highly recommended if you're looking for real results and a supportive environment!”

“Absolutely the best ? I'm a law student at UIC and my schedule is very busy. I tried going to workouts but I never enjoyed going to the gym until F45. The trainers are awesome. Shout out to Yoshelin, Sandro and Sanjay who I had a pleasure to meet so far. My favorite day is Wednesday since it's cardio day and that's my favorite type of workout, but they have a lot of different types of workouts. If you haven't checked them out yet, I would highly recommend it.”

“CrossFit Park Ridge is easily one of the best gyms I’ve ever been part of. The environment is super motivating and welcoming. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the energy. The community is amazing! Everyone’s friendly, encouraging, and genuinely wants to see each other succeed.
The programming is excellent. It’s well thought out, challenging, and can be adapted to any fitness level. You’ll get stronger, faster, and more confident with every workout. The coaches are great too! knowledgeable, supportive, and always paying attention to form and safety.
The equipment is in great condition and really well taken care of. The space is clean, organized, and there’s even a good outdoor area for runs, which adds something extra to the workouts.
One thing I really appreciate is how many class times they offer. There are a lot of early morning options, which makes it easy to stay consistent no matter what your schedule looks like.
Overall, this is a great place to train, meet solid people, and push yourself. If you’re thinking about trying CrossFit or switching gyms, I highly recommend!”
“This is a family owned and operated gym, which helps to create a very unique vibe. There is a very connected, neighborhoody feel about this gym. This atmosphere, which has been cultivated by owners, staff, and area patrons, is difficult to replicate in a big-box, chain gym. Aside from the overall vibe, I like that the people at Elite are upfront with regard to their pricing. There are no guessing games. Their rates are listed on their Web site. They also offer a ten punch card so you can try out the gym before you make a commitment. Those who workout at Elite seem to be connected members of the local community. I find that the clientele is friendly, respectful, and fitness-focused. Lastly, the gym is located in a very cute area of Western Springs. There are several local businesses nearby that you can visit before or after a workout. It's also important to note that parking has never been an issue for me at Elite.”

“I was with OTF back in 2021 for 6 months and came back in July 2023 and still go today. Every type of person comes here and I love it. Old, young, different body types, fitness levels - it's a great community!
The studio is immaculate and always clean. Not only do they have you wipe down a machine/station when you're done with it, but they will also clean after morning/evening sessions. The front desk staff is always friendly and willing to help answer any questions you may have. There are lockers on-site with locks so you can lock your items away while you're in class. Along with showers as well if you need it after class. The classes are never fully booked with a wait list (I've had yet to see that happen unless it's a specialty class).
It may be a little pricey, but it's well worth it! Look at it as you're paying for personal training within a group setting. I've mainly trained with Coaches Stacy and Tony, and they're amazing! Tell them your goals and what you're looking to accomplish. I also love that they aren't drill sergeants. They can see where your heart rate is at throughout the class on a screen and they're not going to push you to do something you can't (I can't always keep up and that's okay!). They offer modification options if you can't do something. The classes change every day, so it's never the same. The music is always on point and I truly love coming to this OTF to get my workout in and see some great people!”
“Love this location! The staff is the best and I will definitely be recommending this location to my friends! Spoke to Jennifer over the phone because I had some questions about membership and she was awesome and so helpful! Appreciate y’all so much!”

“I switched from a local gym to ENRG Fitness about a year ago and have never looked back. The staff is knowledgeable and also encouraging in a very genuine way.
The classes are different everyday - so it's unlikely you'll ever get burned out/bored. Give ENRG a try! You won't regret it and your body will thank you!”
