“Awesome gym with a really good atmosphere. Everyone is welcoming, the equipment is great, and it’s a place where you actually enjoy coming to work out. 10/10.”
“FLO has been a home for me since I have joined, right out of high school I was looking for a place to be. Most gyms are missing one key factor and it is community. This gym lives off of it. I have created so many important relationships with others and have truly bonded to this gym. It is perfect for all ages and groups.”

“I have been taking Walk for Life with Bonnie since Fall 2011 and have recommended it to many friends. Bonnie makes the class fun with different music and you don;t realize how hard you are working. I am so disappointed when I am unable to attend. Look forward ti more sessions at Forest View.”
“Coach Ark has been the best addition to my health and wellness journey! I have never been this fit in my entire life and I just turned 40 last month. The workouts always vary and he is always tracking my progress and upping the intensity just enough to ensure I am challenged but still staying healthy and not injuring myself. Coach Ark trains both my husband and I and we both love him so much! FEEL THE POWER!”

“Small gym, but by FAR the best value in the area, especially if you're a Palatine resident. Maybe not for bodybuilders, but it has the basics and is rarely crowded.”

“We were booking last minute and got confused and the owner took special care of us! She introduced us to aerial yoga and it was a blast for all three of us who came in with various levels of preparation! This is not just a fitness studio but a place where real warmth and genuine spirit come before anything! We will be back!!!”

“Jazzercise Palentine has amazing instructors and participants. Everyone is welcoming and class is always fun. If you’re looking for a way to get active and fit while dancing & having fun then you should sign up to try it out for yourself!”
“The Orange Theory in Kildeer is amazing. The instructors are very knowledgeable and encouraging. Not to mention how friendly and helpful the front desk staff is. Natalie is so sweet and helpful, we adore her.”
“I’ve had an amazing first year at Midtown. Amenities are fantastic, there’s something for everyone, any level of fitness. The staff is so friendly and helpful, especially Ina and Nick, who always remember our names and make us feel valued. Would like highly recommend this club!”

“I’ve been coming to this gym for years, and one of the biggest reasons I’ve stayed is because of how well it’s run—thanks in large part to GiGi at the front desk. She goes above and beyond every single day. Whether it’s keeping the gym spotless, making sure equipment is in order, or greeting members with a smile, she truly makes the place feel welcoming and cared for. You can tell she takes pride in what she does, and it makes a huge difference. The gym wouldn’t be the same without her!”
“Hosted my son's first birthday party at Buehler YMCA Treehouse Adventure and had a great experience. The playroom was perfect for toddlers with a basketball hoop, ping pong table, bouncy house, a tiki playhouse, books and toys. Love that they have a party host to help decorate, cut cake, answer guest questions and even helped clean! Margaret did a great job communicating and helping us with the process. Thank you so much!”
“Ana, Ana, Ana!! Such a kind, non-judgy, helpful person! I came in today to workout for the first time since becoming a black card member - let’s just say a long time ago. I was nervous and unfamiliar with the facility but my physical therapist had encouraged me to start back after my back injury. I was met with a super smiley and friendly manager, Ana, who immediately relieved my anxiety. She gave me a tour and walked me through all the workout options, lockers, and accommodations available for black card members which I took full advantage of ! The red light therapy and aqua massage tables are amazing! I love the sign above the door to check your ego here! Thanks so much for making me feel welcomed and included - even at 70 years old and so out of shape! I’m looking forward to coming back and restarting my strength journey.! (Have I used to many exclamation marks)”
“Mike and staff are knowledgeable and friendly and the gym itself is everything I need. Its clean and has the necessary tools to clean, equipment is usually always in service here too. Gym is great but the staff is even better.”
“I am a male in my late 20's and have been working out at Hart 4 Heart 2 - 3 days per week over the last 2 years. My prior fitness experience was back in high school doing conditioning on the JV hockey team where we had a similar 3 day per week schedule. Without a doubt, this has been the best overall health/fitness decision that I have found and stuck with in my life. Kyle and Holly run a casual feeling, yet well organized small gym that is welcoming and personal in a way that other gym spaces are not.
You pay a higher price than standard gym memberships in order to relieve yourself of the mental gymnastics of figuring out what you need to work out and the best way to do it. On the contrary, the experience costs less than traditional personal training and is not nearly as intense since you aren't being hawked by a fitness coach. You get your own binder to track your progress so that your last weight/rep count on an exercise is never forgotten. If you need help, it is there. All you need to do is show up, do the exercises as shown (don't take shortcuts in your form) and in turn you will receive a sustainable, personalized workout that works for you every day you show up. If you need anything altered due to injury, or muscle strain, just let Kyle know and he can change your workout then and there, no issue.
Thank you Kyle and Holly for a fantastic past 2 years keeping me where I want to be at physically!”
