Fitness & Gyms near Itasca, IL

“Great place to work out. Welcoming with friendly staff and the pool is always clean. It is quite warm but I'd rather have the water too warm rather than too cold.”

“Perfect small-ish gym. Plenty of equipment for an experienced lifter like myself, but very welcoming and relaxed environment for beginners too! All the staff/trainers are friendly and knowledgeable. Even the others working out there will assist you if you ask for advice or a spot. Couldn’t be happier with my choice of gyms when I decided to start workout out at F19 over 3 years ago! 10/10 would recommend.”

“I’ve always been intimidated by weight training because I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. MSP has been the perfect place for me to learn the ropes! Nice people all around.I like that they don’t just throw you into the group classes and have you do three, 1:1 Foundations sessions (s/o to Alex!) at the onset.Their structure of 3 classes per week package helps me stay consistent, and the class sizes are usually only 4-8 people. I’m almost two months in and feeling great.”

“The workouts are great! I find myself doing best in a class atmosphere which can be very intimidating to walk into for your first time. Not here...everyone is very supportive, friendly, encouraging, and most importantly want to see you succeed. Workouts can be very challenging but the instructors are always there to motivate you to do your best. Judgement free zone which is so important!”

“I am in my early 70s and have been doing Orange Theory twice a week for the past 13 months. I feel great and have definitely gained strength and endurance. I have more energy and am able to continue to do the things I enjoy. At Orange Theory, I really appreciate the variety of the workouts and the encouragement from the coaches to work hard, but most of all I appreciate the personal attention I receive from the coaches. They make sure I am doing the exercises correctly and make modifications where needed. If you think you can’t do this, which is what I thought, I would encourage you to reconsider and give it a try.”

“Called Aamir to resolve an issue and he couldn't have been more helpful! He was very understanding and talked me through everything, and I knew I could count on him to do right by my situation. People like this make going to the gym a delight!”

“I’ve been at CrossFit caliber since 2013. The owner and head coach is top notch! The experience and community is unlike any other. If you’re looking for somewhere to workout without the pressure of a big gym… Crossfit Calibet is IT!”

“I have been a member at Infinite Fitness continuously since 2018.Before that, I had never been able to stay in a fitness program for more than six months in the last 25 years. I have made the trip from couch potato to gym regular. ?Infinite Fitness is truly a different place. intimate and inviting, the people are all very friendly and helpful, both staff and gym members.It’s truly a community of people of all ages, abilities, shapes and sizes, and all respect and encourage each other.And we have a gym dog. Kevin and Char‘s dog Ella, the gentlest husky ever!24/7 access. Do it on your own schedule!I love this place. ♾️”

“Friendly coaches and staff, engaging, having clients clean the equipment after each use. Helpful. Challenging and they push us to our limits to give us the bet one hour work out.”

“Great option for workout routines love the swimming pool because it goes to six feet and I am 6'4. The only reason this place does not get five stars is because it closes early on weekends at 2 pm. Every encounter I had with the staff has been wonderful from the front desk people to the lifeguards”

“I love Jazzercise for life-long mobility! Jazzercise gives me everything I need, complete with just-right modifications and low-impact/high intensity classes to customize my workout. The exercise patterning is brilliant for brain acuity, and it’s all in a warm, supportive, laughter-filled community, whether in-class or on-line.”

“I have been loving my experience so far! Everyone is so kind and the environment is positive and fun! The facilities are clean and everyone is so welcoming. The workouts are challenging and I've for sure been seeing results! Definitely recommend!”

“I cannot say enough about TBD Fitness. I just started my fourth week and am seeing major progress and feel great! All the trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, professional and have a genuine desire to help you hit your fitness goals. I leave exhausted but enjoy each workout. Thank you Daniel, Mason, Leo and Jamal!”

“Best powerlifting gym I have ever step foot in. I have never met a gym owner more invested and dedicated to the people that walk through their doors. Both Sergio and Jackie (owners) have created a culture like no other and It shows through everything they do. Their “heart” is what makes everyone family.”

“I Burn for Orange Theory! If you're like me who doesn't know what to do at the gym or where to begin then this is the place for you. Workouts are set for an hour led by a certified OTF Coach. Their equipment are top notch. Members have access to water rowers, TRX, Free weights, Bosu, Bike, Strider and shock absorbent treadmills. Everyone is there to encourage one another to do their best while having fun working out. Joining OTF was the best decision I ever made. I highly recommend trying it out.”

“Love the staff but the fitness manager has made some very questionable decisions recently with the gym "renovation" which has caused a lot of members to cancel their memberships. Before this change I would've given it 5 stars, I'll update my review if they make some changes.Edit- 12/20/23Back by popular demand and strong arming from the park district board, they brought back machines that they decided to get rid of. Not a bad place to workout at, good people.”

“I’ve been to a lot of gyms throughout my fitness journey: Planet Fitness, XSport, Lifetime Fitness, even at home setups. None of these solutions have ever been helpful for me. Sometimes it’s anxiety, other times it’s motivation. The American Heart association recommends at least 30 minutes of vigorous activity every day to make sure your heart stays health. I don’t do that at all. With high cholesterol, diabetes, and more cardiovascular conditions running in the family, I need to figure out a solution that works for me.When my close friend posted on Instagram that he took his 300th class at OrangeTheory, I immediately asked him about it. At a first glance, OrangeTheory seemed very intimidating and daunting. My friend reassured me and told me to try it, but it didn’t make my anxiety any better. At the time of writing this review, OTF had a free class promotion going on.I decided that health is an investment and why not just try the free class? I have a lot to learn.I booked the nearest location near me and gave it a shot.The studio is beautiful, modern, and orange. Literally orange. From the lobby to the dimly lit orange fitness center. Everything here is ORANGE. Which totally fits the theme of the brand.The intake forms are very quick. Basic info, emergency contact, billing information. Once you’re done, you get a tour of the studio as well as a personal introduction from staff, coaches, and an explanation of how OrangeTheory works. This is going to sound weird, but OrangeTheory feels like a workout academy and we are all the students.At the end of the tour and explanation, we are given heart rate monitors and sent off into the studio. The coaches welcome everyone in with positivity and cheering. You then get sectioned off on either “the floor” (rowing/weights) or the “the treads” (treadmill, elliptical, bikes). Your heart rate monitor is connected to all the machines in the room. Walk up to a machine, tap your name, and you see your heart rate as well as what “color” you are. (Gray, Blue, Green, Orange, Red). Gray is heart at rest pace. Red is the heart at the highest performance in can go. Orange is the sweet spot. The more time you spend in orange, the more calories you burn, the more your body is working harder.Coaches never leave you alone fully. They are always talking to you through microphones. If you are on the treadmill, they will make you switch between different phases of pace. (Base, Push, All Out). The technology has “recommendations” of what these mean for incline and speed, and it’s up to you to decide what works for you. The treadmills allow for power walking, jogging, and running. It’s totally up to you for what you want to do. I do power walking.Floor exercises are guided. Coaches will demo each weight training exercise, and then they will put up a TV that shows looped videos side by side of what the exercises are doing followed by instructions like “repeat these until the coach tells you otherwise”. You are allowed to rest/refill water/bathroom anytime.The class switches groups halfway through, everyone is obligated to clean their machines with wipes. And then everything starts over again until the end of class, which ends with a recovery yoga stretch followed by community events.My OrangeTheory experience wasn’t what I expected at all. As someone with social anxiety, coming into this class scared me, but I had an amazing time. The gamification of weight loss, the “school/academy” structure and community, the stats and challenges you can see on the TV and app, literally everything here that you pay for is a streamlined and fun experience. I was very surprised by the experience here and I learned a lot in the process.Thank you OTF Roselle for the amazing experience.”

“I thought I would try OT for a little while until I got "sick of it" and was ready to move onto something else.... 18 months (and 211 classes) later and I'm still going strong! I appreciate the OT community, the variety in classes one day to the next, and mostly the results! I feel stronger and more energetic with each day. I am pleasantly surprised by what my body is actually capable of. I have no plans to hang up my towel anytime soon :)”

“My teen really enjoyed coming here for boxing and Muah Thai. Their classes are very intense and disciplined. The coaches are all wonderful. My son’s favorite class was instructor Jose’s boxing class. The owners Richard and Kelly are really kind and treat you like family. I highly recommend Maximus Muah Thai for boxing, Muah Thai, Brazilian Jui-Jitsu.”

“I love this gym. There is ample room to workout, very clean and enough equipment to workout. I enjoy going at 4am to workout peacefully. You won’t be disappointed.”

“While visiting family we took a class with Michael at OTF Schaumburg. Michael is an extremely attentive coach, ensuring all of us were working through the right form, and gave us tons of motivation along the way. To top this off, Michael adjusted the class to accommodate an additional guest that wanted to try the class. You're in great hands if you sign up with OTF Schaumburg.”

“Great place- came through for a 2 week membership while I was in town for a vacation to see family. I paid $50, Jeff is very friendly and the vibe is great! There are even tickets for the Des Plaines Theater for members. They have tanning a massage chair and all the equipment one might need for a great workout! 5/5”

“FITT60126 is a great place to get and/or stay in shape. The group of individuals that attend are encouraging and supportive to everyone. I was a little intimidated to go at first, but I have now been there for more than a year and I can't imagine not being part of the FITT team.”
