“More equipment would be great. Maybe be an Air Force base? Hours are odd. Hire more people, or.... be like the Air Force and use the 31 ASVAB scorers to man the gym?”

“After not finding a lot of motivation in going to the gym by myself, I knew I needed a change. WWM has been perfect for me. They push you to be better and the classes are challenging but fun. Very welcoming atmosphere as well! I'd recommend it to anyone wanting to get back in shape and have a great community of people supporting you.”

“Very clean not over crowded. I never felt like I was being judged. Always greeted with a friendly smile by Laura, one of the personal trainers. If I didn’t have to move I wouldn’t have canceled my membership.”

“It’s not easy these days to find small, friendly businesses where you deal directly with the owners, so I’m happy to have found PFT. It’s a really nice setup - you can go there any time and it’s never crowded, never a wait to use this or that, you grab a workout station and it’s yours and yours alone for as long as you’re there. Lots of classes too. I’m a novice compared to most but everyone’s really nice and friendly and the staff will always answer questions and give advice. Five stars.”

“I’ve been coming to this OTF location for at least 6 years. The staff is super friendly and personable. All of the coaches are very good at communicating on the various movements and what we are working on each day. Everyone who attends is super friendly and welcoming. The staff does a great job of supporting a sense of an OTF community.”

“I did a one‑month trial membership in December 2025 before signing my wife and me up for an ongoing monthly plan.

Highlights: great staff; clean facility; very close to home.
What we like: my wife loves the treadmill area; I use the weights and indoor track 3–5 times a week.
Amenities I enjoy: jacuzzi; steam bath; sauna.
There are several pickleball courts on site. I haven’t tried any of the group programs yet.

Why not 5-stars? If they make access 24x7 - even with a higher monthly rate, I can update to 5-stars.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Love this OTF location! The Riverwoods studio has such a great vibe—everyone from the front desk staff to the coaches is super welcoming and upbeat. The workouts are always different, which keeps things interesting, and the energy in the room really helps push you to do your best (even on those days when you don’t feel like working out ?).

Shoutout to the coaches—they’re motivating without being over-the-top, and they actually take the time to help with form or give modifications if needed. The studio is always clean, and parking is super easy too.

Highly recommend this spot if you're in the area and want a solid workout with good people!”

“OTF Highland Park is the BEST studio! I have been a member for a long time and this studio is the best! The coaches push you past your comfort zone which I love because it motivates me more. I love all the staff and the coaches! I especially love seeing Angela at the front she always has a smile on her face which always puts a smile on my face! It always brightens my day when I see her. The staff and coaches are amazing and I consider them all like family!!”

“As a 46 year old, recently diagnosed with lumbar arthritis, I knew I had to get my health care back in order. Fast Forward Med Rx program! $150 for 10 sessions with a trainer!! Fabian is kind, but fair! Exercise isn’t my favorite activity, but with his guidance I am feeling capable again! I will likely join after I finish and keep going! Thank you Logan and Fabian! I’m sure there are others, but very pleased!”

“Writing this review to give massive thanks to Deloris specifically. I was passing through highland park & stopped at a random beach for a quick second to take a picture. I kid you not, not even 5 minutes from the time I parked I was already issued a parking ticket. It's honestly so sad because it's almost like Highland park doesn't like visitors or atleast that's my first impression. Anyways, I came to the recreation center to see if i can have the ticket voided & not ONLY did Deloris understand & void my ticket but she went as far as to recommend me another beach with free parking & went into detail about everything else they offer. Thank you so much Deloris & I hope this gets back to you.”

“Love this gym been going since I've first got here. The only thing I would say is that the sauna is out of order. It would be nice if it was working but can't win them all.”

“I have worked with HPI in Highland Park for many years on and off. I returned recently because I was getting a lot of running injuries. The adult fitness program was the answer! It’s a great program that addresses movement and overall strength! I love the trainers and trust them to keep me from getting hurt during the workout.”

“I’ve been going here for a year now. It’s amazing quality on all fronts. The gym is very spacious and equipped, with all the necessary machines and equipment for a workout. The staff are always amazing too.

There are also lots of classes for people to participate in, such as yoga, dancing, etc.

The price could be a bit better though. $40 for 30 days and $20 for just 10 days seems slightly excessive, compared to some nearby suburbs like Wheeling and Palatine. Another issue is the constant hogging up of areas by teenagers on their phones a lot.

But despite this, the gym offers great value. I strongly recommend it if you’re in the Buffalo Grove area.”

“Home Roots has been such a life changing experience for me! All of the coaches and the people that come here are the best to workout with! It’s a judgement free zone where one can reach potential. I would not be where I am if it was not for this place. Definitely stop by, even if you feel like you aren’t in shape. This is the place!”

“What an amazing (and free) experience! I’ve never done anything quite like it before. From the bus ride and face painting to the kids’ activities and even meeting some players, everything far exceeded expectations. To top it off, everyone was so kind and welcoming. I can’t wait to make this an annual tradition! GO Bears!”

“Win Performance is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to. The facility is phenomenal—clean, spacious, and packed with top-of-the-line equipment that caters to every kind of training style. But what truly sets Win apart is the people. The trainers here are beyond knowledgeable. They don’t just throw you into a cookie-cutter program—they take the time to understand your specific goals, needs, and limitations, and train you accordingly.

The energy in this gym is unmatched. There’s an outstanding sense of community that keeps you motivated and makes you actually look forward to working out. Huge shoutout to Kerry, Pete, and Kyle for their expertise, encouragement, and next-level coaching. Win Performance isn’t just a gym—it’s a game changer.”

“We used one of the rooms with kitchen for our Christmas party. It was great except that it was on the day that it set a record high for December in northern Illinois. It was fairly warm in the room.”
