My goal is to see if resistance and weight training will improve bone density going forward. Eric lives nearby and seemed like the perfect solution. He's knowledgeable, accommodating, and easy to talk to. We've only been at this for six weeks, but I'm very happy with the program so far.

For the first 40 years of my life, I thought exercise wasn't for me. I didn't know the first thing…read moreabout it and I had the body to prove it. I was delighted to find a local trainer here in Arlington Heights who was not only willing but eager to help me learn how to make fitness a regular part of my life. I've loved working with Eric for the past year. He focuses on functional fitness and helps me train across different exercises and disciplines. This includes traditional weight training, but also kettlebell, cardio, combined strength exercises, and even yoga. Eric has even helped me get my diet under control, reviewing my eating habits and helping me find healthier alternatives. I am in better shape than ever before, but thanks to Eric I've made fitness a regular part of my life. I went from someone who could be winded by two flights of stairs to running my first-ever half-marathon, something that would have seemed crazy to the old me. Throughout it all, Eric has been a kind and patient guide. I'm grateful to have found him.

My membership was suddenly…read morecancelled after two minor situations involving my children, even though I fully complied with staff instructions and left immediately when asked. What is most concerning is how unprofessionally this situation was handled. I was not given a fair opportunity to explain my side. The District Manager interrupted me, did not allow me to speak, and made a final decision without transparency. Additionally, my emails to support were ignored for 8 days. When I finally received a response, it was simply stated that the decision would remain in effect, without any explanation or evidence of a proper review. I was told the case would be investigated, but it appears the decision was made quickly and without fairness. This experience reflects a lack of respect toward long-term members, poor communication, and questionable business practices. I expected a professional review process, but instead received dismissal and silence. Very disappointing.

She is very focused on her job which is to give the client the best training session possible based on their needs and abilities that particular day. Jenny is always on time, and gently coaxes my mom to do more and work harder while being very cognizant of my mom's limitations (which can change from session to session) and making sure my mom does not get injured. Jenny is also very open to suggestions on modifying the training sessions based on updated goals. She is a great communicator and very kind to my mother as well. Jenny has trained my mom's caregivers to do specific exercises on the other four days of the week so that my mom can continue to increase her strength, balance and ability to walk for longer and longer stretches on her own without assistance. My mom's physical abilities and strength have improved since having Jenny as her trainer. We had another trainer for several years however Jenny has been much better at achieving positive results for my mom. We highly recommend Jenny as a personal fitness trainer!

Not only is she great at her job, she is also one of the kindest, most generous people you'll ever meet. Jenny genuinely cares about you and will do everything she can to help you accomplish your fitness goals. I can't imagine going on this journey with anyone other than Jenny. I recommend her 100%. One session with her and you'll be hooked---I guarantee it!

I've been to five (and counting) boxes since EAD, and this one is the best by a long shot. The programming is peerless. You can't go anywhere else and find such a diverse array - WODs, power lifting, rowing, boot camps. Additionally, their programming is well thought out. You can go every day of the week, and you won't get bored or burn out a muscle group. The coaches are fantastic and take a real interest in your personal goals. They all preach technique. Several of the coaches compete in events. It makes a real difference to have that kind of knowledge available to you. It's like learning how to cook from a master chef. They're also constantly learning and staying at the forefront of programming techniques and nutrition. Rather than being stuck in a certain training mentality, they evolve with the sport and the science. I've recommended this box to everyone I know who lives in the area, and I've even gotten a couple of my friends to join. It's been said that the strongest recommendation of a service is a referral. I'm more than happy to refer EAD over and over again.

I learned of The Exercise Coach through a Groupon offer. I've just completed my last, 8th, session…read morewith Micheal who is the owner of this particular facility. The facility packs a lot of unique equipment in a small space. The computerized resistance machines provide a personalized program that is extremely challenging. The effort is measured in both directions. For example, a chest press measures effort in the push out and also resisting the weight returning to the start position. Micheal is focused on proper form and safety, while still pushing for maximum benefit. During this last session he measured my improvement from the first session and I've had a significant improvement in strength. I never would have thought it was possible to acheive that much change in eight 20 minute sessions. I'm not sure that I will continue with the program primarily from a cost & location perspective. However, I would strongly recommend this program for anyone looking to improve their strength and overall fitness, regardless of your age or previous experience.
