The EMS workout you get at Body Time Chicago is amazing. It works out all muscle groups with a variety of exercises. There's two types of workout, strength and metabolism. I prefer a mix of both but it depends on what your goals are and the trainer can help you decide. You really feel the workout the next day as if you worked out for an hour but its only 20 minutes! Being only a 20 minute session works well with my busy schedule especially since I work late a lot. They have availability in the mornings, evenings as well as weekends. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable and they help make sure you have the right form in all the different exercises they show you (which is an added plus, you'll learn new exercises you can do on your own at the gym). The facility itself is great too, clean and spacious, and you have your own changing stall to store your personal items. Over all I'd recommend Body Time to those who are new to working out, as well as those who are experienced but want a more time efficient work out. read more

Excellent concept for busy people. The staff is very friendly, professional and full of energy. Love the vibe and mostly the amazing results that I am seeing. Adrian, Silvio, Julia and Warren are great. It's a lot of fun!! read more

I've been coming here close to 3 months now and I love it. It's only a 20 minute workout and you leave feeling like you've worked out for an hour. Inside is very clean and the staff is extremely nice. Every trainer that has trained me was super friendly and attentive. I recommend this place! There's also always street parking. read more

The individual who reached out to me after I inquired was very very rude. I have never had someone yell at me or act the way he did when trying to get me to sign up so something. They do not communicate all of the details and when you start asking questions and telling them they need to be upfront the inappropriate behavior comes out. I would avoid this place unless you want to be disrespected! read more

I've been going to Body Time Chicago for the past 2 years and I must say they're a perfect fit for my lifestyle. My personal trainer is amazing, he knows exactly what I need and is extremely knowledgeable. My 20 minute workouts twice a week are the equivalent of going 5 times a week at a traditional gym, I really love that. Thank you Body Time for your professionalism, dedication and motivating me every single time I work out. read more

Adrian and the team at Bodytime Chicago are simply the best. I've been training at this studio since it's opening last August. I must say at first I wasn't so sure about the technology but just after my first session I was sold and sore for days. Must try! I promise you'll be hooked. read more

Body Time Chicago made for one of the most memorable, intense and refreshing workouts I've ever experienced. I was pretty skeptical at first about this place, but it has completely taken me aback. I walked in and a super friendly trainer walked me through the EMS process, calculated some percentages based off my weight and answered questions (and doubts) I had about this whole thing. Once I got into the suit, they strapped on the vest and electrodes and hooked me up to the machine that controlled the EMS impulses. If I'm being honest, I was pretty intimated at this part but Alex, my trainer, walked through everything very slowly and made sure I felt comfortable. There was never a point where I felt pushed or uncomfortable with the impulses! We then started the workout which consisted of very simple exercises (curls, lunges, squats) while the EMS impulses were going through my body through the vest. This was a very strange feeling but I worked up a sweat pretty quick. By the end of the 20 minutes, I felt WORKED but my body wasn't in any pain from lifting heavy weights. I also loved how easy this process was on my joints - the simplicity of the exercises, combined with the impulses, made the whole workout feel deep and refreshing all at once. I would definitely try this gym out if you're skeptical, don't know anything about EMS, or just want to experience as memorable of a workout as I did! read more

I loved my experience at BodyTime! In only 20 minutes, I got tired and sore and knew I got a great workout in. The way I felt, definitely indicated that some serious work had been done in a short period of time. 5 weeks in already and amazing results are showing!! The trainers definitely know what they're doing! 100% recommended for busy or people lacking motivation to hit the gym. read more

I must admit that I had my doubts about this new technology but everything changed when I walked in. The studio was clean, bright and welcoming. The staff and trainers were very friendly and knowledgeable. The training was intense and I sweated like crazy. Two days later I was so soar and every muscle in my body was killing me. I signed up and I will recommend this EMS to all my friends and family. Can wait to go next week! Best of luck Body Time Chicago! I know you'll do great! read more

Adrian and his team do a great job of training you to reach your goals. The workouts are hard and you always feel the burn. As someone who has arthrogryposis these workouts definitely have helped me reach my goals better than just working out on my own. This is a great addition to my regular routine and has helped me push through my workouts. I've never felt stronger from such a short workout. I would highly recommend this place for anyone who is looking for an extra kick in the right direction. The trainers are very friendly and have your best interest in mind. They are very motivational and will not let you give up. read more

This is a really great alternative for a good workout if you don't have a lot of time to dedicate to a gym. You don't need to bring anything with you which is a huge plus as everything is provided for your session in house. Covid precautions are in place and everything is sanitized after use! I was a little nervous at first to try out EMS training, but David was amazing at explaining everything and making sure the electrical pulses were within my comfort zone. I highly recommend trying this out to switch things up and get in shape! read more

Much like most Chicagoans that are borderline workaholics, I don't have time to go to the gym. When I heard about the whole concept that Body Time is based on, it sounded like something that it would fit my needs. I have been going to Body Time once a week for 3 months now and I can feel and see my body more toned. I am more fit, lean and energized that I have been in a long time. My muscle mass increased in the past 90 days and I have decided to enroll for another 90 days in the program. The studio is easily accessible and clean. The trainers and knowledgeable, trained and very professional. We all need to work out and keep fit and if you are one of those that doesn't have time in your hectic daily schedule for you, I recommend that you try it! read more

This is my 2nd time training, I loved it after I did my first sample session. I felt it more The 2nd time because we are building my strength. I sweat so I know I'm working hard.

Tell them Bobby says hello read more

I am SO happy that I found this place!! My mom and I began coming here after hearing about EMS in Europe & it's everything we hoped for an more. Not only is the 20 minute workout efficient and convenient, but it's an awesome experience! The owners (Adrian and Florin) are so personable and knowledgeable and really make sure that I was comfortable, and motivated. They always take time to talk to me. The trainers are also super sweet, motivating, & make me feel comfortable! I'm so happy to have found this place because it's a 10/10 experience everytime! I look forward to each session. read more

Just awesome! I definitely see my body changing, especially stomach area, just have to keep my diet in check. After leaving it feels like I just had a 2-3 hour workout in just 20 minutes. It's kind of far from my house but it's worth the drive. The trainers always push me go the extra mile and each session becomes more intense! Definitely for people who work long hours and don't have time to always hit the gym. read more

In March I started my weekly sessions at body time with Adrian. Over the last few years I've had a few health issues that made me gain 50lbs. After trying many ways to lose the weight and get back to my normal self, I stumbled upon body time and gave it a shot. Im so happy I did! Every week I'm excited to go to my sessions. Adrian, and all of the other trainers really, are awesome people. Great personalities! They all make me feel so welcome all the day time I come there and I never had the feeling that I'm a loser or something bc I'm not in shape. They always encourage me and kick my ass in all sessions to help me reach my goal. It's seriously the best experience one can hope for. I would give this place a hundred stars if they'd finally make a button for it! Everyone there is professional, understanding when you have to cancel and reschedule sessions. Funny and entertaining and very sweet. The first few weeks I couldn't lose the weight, as I couldn't maintain a healthy diet due to a very busy schedule, but once I started watching my eating, I started loosing 10lbs and counting. I say it's really worth it, if you're willing to put in the effort!! read more

I found out about Body Time from an online ad and went in just because they were giving out a free session. I had my doubts about EMS but boy it was fun. Long story short, I have been a member of BodyTime for a year now. They have a great, clean facility. All the trainers are very friendly, they keep me motivated and best at what they do. The workouts are personalized and the staff ensures you get the best workout in just 20 mins. It seems like a short duration but workouts do use a lot of energy and strength, leaving you sore - which to me is the measurement for an effective workout. I recently have started the metabolism session as well which is insanely effective. I can totally see the difference in my body composition and feel more fit. It can be a little intimidating at first but I do think this is a perfect fit for someone who is busy like me and doesn't have all the hours of spending at the gym. Totally recommend checking them out. read more

This is a great option for those who don't have time to go to the gym every day. A 20 minute simple workout feels like the most rigorous 2-3 hour workout. After just a few sessions I've been to feel and see a difference. Adi does a great job explaining everything and answering all my questions. I'm so glad I found this place! read more
