“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”
“I’ve been a member of Coalition for a year now, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. The entire team is amazing—knowledgeable, supportive, and truly invested in helping members improve. The instructors bring both expertise and enthusiasm to every class, ensuring a great workout while also making real-time adjustments to movements when needed. Their attention to detail and commitment to proper form make a huge difference.
Beyond the workouts, what really sets Coalition apart is its culture. The environment is welcoming, inclusive, and motivating, making it a place where all fitness levels can thrive. It’s clear that the community here is built on progress, encouragement, and growth. I’m looking forward to many more years as part of this incredible gym!”
“Recently joined CrossFit Wilmette after being out of the CrossFit world for over a year and a half, and it’s been such an amazing experience. The coaching staff is incredibly knowledgeable and does a great job connecting with every class, the members are genuinely welcoming, and the owners truly go out of their way to check in and make new members feel supported. I feel so lucky to have found this community!”
“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.”
“Joining this gym was the best choice I made in 2025 hands down. I have more stamina and strength, but tbf this is my first ever CrossFit gym. It's very welcoming for beginners, but is challenging for elite athletes too; most athletes need to scale the main metcons (metabolic conditioning workouts).
The space can accomodate classes of 25-30 with space for 2-3 individuals to do their own workouts in the open gym space.
In this community, there are multiple entrepreneurs whose side businesses offer other nutrition, wellness, and food services. I love being surrounded by a community that is smart, welcoming, and savvy.
I cannot recommend this gym enough to my friends and family in the Chicagoland area.”
“Love Archetype! Joined about a year ago as my first experience with crossfit and fell in love with the workouts, the community, and how much stronger I feel. Highly recommend to beginners and experts alike!”

“Was traveling into town for a trade show & hit up Rockwell Barbell. If you're a strength sport enjoyer this is the gym for you. All the competition equipment an athlete could look for from calibrated plates to fun gear like bands & chain Rockwell has it all. Lawrence was easy to deal with and his gym is a personification of his support of strength sports. Any gear or equipment you can need (boards for bench?) is abundant, didn't have to wait for a single item. If you're debating the trip to get there.... don't, you won't regret it. If you like jacking steel, it's the place to be in Chicago!”
“Been at Basecamp West Loop for almost three years now and I am so thankful for the fitness (and friends) that I’ve built here! The workout is engaging and clear (which is helpful when my brain is half asleep ?). The coaches each bring their own flare to the workout, and you can’t go wrong with any of them: Dana brings the hype, Braxton brings the intensity, Dennis has such attention to detail, and Brittany makes everyone feel like a friend… I could go on! Not to mention, you will always be welcomed and celebrated at Basecamp (s/o Abby & Alyona). So thankful for this place and the people that make it!
Also, think it goes without saying that I wouldn’t stay if I didn’t see results, too.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Moonshot CrossFit. The coaching is exceptional—knowledgeable, encouraging, and truly invested in helping you improve with proper form and confidence.
What keeps me coming back is the combination of that incredible coaching and a supportive, motivating community that makes working out something I actually look forward to.

“I’ve been a member at SLSC for a little over a year, with no prior CrossFit experience.Simply put, this is the best workout. The group workouts (6:30 pm crew!) are well planned out, fun, and challenging. Everyone positively supports and encourages each other.The coaches and staff are the best around and really care. They make all levels feel welcome, teach proper technique, and offer one-on-one advice during classes (and play good music!).The vibes and location are excellent. No matter age or level, you will get better here.”

“I’ve been working at Mybody for 10 years now and it’s honestly been a 2nd home. The unique thing about Mybody Complex that sets it apart from other gyms is this is 100% private for working with a trainer. There is no public membership. And there is tons of space, the place is huge! Everyone is here for the same thing, to reach their fitness goals, whether that is for sports, weight loss, aesthetics, strength, or just move and feel better.Danny the owner has been a great mentor for the last 10+ years when I met him at the last gym I trained at. I don’t know where I would be if he didn’t put his trust in me as a trainer and brought me aboard.If you want to get fit and feel apart of a community, look no further!Mybody Complex offers:Personal trainingGroup trainingMassageBoxingSelf defenseJiu JitsuBarberSpray tanLaser hair removalPhysical TherapyChiropractic work”

“PXM has been a really great experience for me. The coaches are all great, supportive and will meet you where you are at. The fitness approach helps people no matter where they are at in their fitness journey. You will learn a lot about your own body through the movements and exercises to achieve your personal goals. The community of people at PXM is awesome!”
“Love the studio !! Coaches (Lisa, Melissa, Kianna, Kristen, John) and front desk staff (Harrison) are amazing. The community of fellow OTF’ers are super.
Highly recommend this location to stay strong, keep up with fitness goals and build community along the way.”
“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 used to go to LA fitness and no matter what time I would go it was always crowded, equipment always out of order, and rude employees .
From the moment I walked in this gym I was welcomed with friendly faces. Switching over to Anytime has completely changed my workout habits. I am able to comfortably workout. I no longer dread going to the gym . The atmosphere here is friendly and so welcoming. I’ve lost over 10 pounds in one month alone . It’s small but everything is always available . If you’re thinking of switching gyms give this one a try!”
“Best workout, best gym, best coaches.
I always leave feeling stronger, more energized, and genuinely accomplished. The atmosphere at 10.40.10 is motivating but never intimidating - there’s a focused energy in the room that makes you want to push yourself but also feel comfortable and supported. It’s clear the coaches genuinely care about your progress; they check in regularly, encourage you, and tailor the workouts to your needs. That makes all the difference in making every session feel purposeful and rewarding.”
“This Gym made me who I am today.
Every coach, people, community in this gym is way par for the course. they are professional and friendly.
I have been to many Crossfit gyms, but I am so glad to be part of this gym and being living walking from here.
Thank you to the whole team of DT and I highly encourage this place to all levels who has an intent to transform cz they will help you bring out what's inside you :) Cheers”
“For those new to CrossFit but aren't sure, this is the gym to try. Promise, you won't regret it. I joined about two years ago as a beginner, had no idea what to expect, and happy to say I found what I was looking for and more. A positive and welcoming community, variety of workouts that are both scalable and challenging, and knowledgeable coaches.”
