My initial review was 3 stars due to some error in sending and receive email. Meghan was very kind to communicate the misunderstanding and come in for my second session. My second session went absolutely perfect! Jeff was a wealth of knowledge and his attention to detail is superb. He challenged me to think differently about my workouts and re-think what exactly it is that I want to achieve and how to hit my goals. Although Evolve Fitness is a bit out of my personal price point, I highly advise others to come check out this awesome, friendly facility and crew members - they will most definitely leave a positive impression on you! read more

I really recommend Evolve and personal trainer Reshanna. The concept is unique in that everyone is working out with their personal trainer and Reshanna is awesome! She's super knowledgeable and ready for whatever fitness goal I throw at her - running a race, challenging hikes, weight loss, personal best lifts - you name it, she gets me to my goal! read more

Excellent gym. Pricey but if it's in your budget I highly recommend doing sessions here. I work out with Kevin and he's amazing. Always adjusts for injuries and keeps things challenging. Don't have enough good things to say about this gym read more

I've been working out with Reshanna for almost a year and a half and it's been amazing. I've lost 40 pounds in that time training with her 3 days a week along with cardio on my own. She is super supportive, amazingly reliable and pushes me in a way that I don't feel discouraged. Highly recommend Reshanna and Evolve. You can't go wrong with anyone there - it's a super supportive community. read more

I've been training with Reshanna at Evolve for over 2 years now, and I can't recommend her or the gym enough. She's professional and knows exactly what she's doing. I've lost 25 lbs since I started training with her and my body composition has completely changed. I have more confidence in my body now than I have had in like a decade. I continue to go workout with her weekly because it's one of my favorite parts of my week (and by no means am I gym junkie). Everyone needs a Reshanna for their physical and mental health! read more

Ask for Reshanna Boswell! My best mornings begin with a 45 minute workout with Reshanna, who has helped me feel confident and strong in the gym. Her sessions are challenging yet fun, and I always leave feeling energized for the day. Couldn't recommend her enough! read more

Can't say enough good things about the team at Evolve. Everyone is friendly and encouraging and it was the ideal supportive environment for me to get my fitness regimen back on track. After an initial consultation with Meghan, the owner, where we discussed my goals, she paired me with trainer Sam Hagen. I've had over 40 sessions with Sam - he kept the sessions varied and interesting, correcting form where needed, challenging me and understanding some days you gotta take the foot off the gas. If you're on the fence, do it - the first step is the most difficult, but making that choice and the ensuing commitment is how you reach your goal. Evolve is the right team to take those steps with you. Good luck! read more

Has it really been almost four years since I've joined Evolve? Time sure flies when you're having fun working out, especially when you're working out pre and post having a baby. I'm so thankful to Jeannette, Josh, and their excellent team of trainers for helping me stay as fit as possible before, during, and after my first pregnancy. My trainer made modifications for me throughout, and the boot camp classes were small enough for the instructor to also modify my exercises until I was no longer able to participate in camp. In fact, I worked out with my trainer the day after my due date (baby girl took her sweet time and arrived 6 days after her due date). Josh took over my training after I took the summer off and worked with me to get me back to my pre-pregnancy baseline. Not only did I lose the 40 lbs I gained, but I ended up losing an extra 6 lbs! Now Evolve has recently moved to a new location that is 3 blocks closer to me (yay!), which can be an excuse to walk/run there when it's warmer outside. The new gym is next to our favorite neighborhood pizza joint, Pizzeria Serio, but thankfully you don't smell pizza while you're working out. The new space is fantastic and well equipped with lots of brand new equipment to incorporate into your work out. There's a separate shower room and bathroom that are both new and clean. The office and trainers lounge are located downstairs so the first floor is dedicated to training. The digs may be new, but the team is still the same friendly, funny, and passionate group of people who are sincerely invested in helping your reach your fitness goals. Jeannette and Josh have become my friends and although I train with Josh, it's been great getting to know the other trainers during my time there, my two former trainers Jeff and Mel, as well as Sarah, Dennis, Phil, Sam, and Reshanna. I also enjoy the bootcamps and bonding with both the gym regulars and new members. Even Hubby is surprised I've stuck to "my routine", working out with Josh once a week and attending 1-2 bootcamps during the week based on my schedule. It's a testament I've stayed with the same gym for so long. During this season of giving thanks, I'm thankful for Evolve and the staff for helping me realize, achieve, and maintain my personal fitness goals. I'm a complete believer in the personal training model and now can't imagine working out any other way. It's a bonus you're now closer to me, but honestly I'd follow you anywhere. read more

Evolve Fitness Chicago - Working out 1 day after my due date! - Weight Loss Centers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Hi, I am writing this review, because I can't say enough great things about Evolve Fitness Chicago. It's perfect those serious about health and fitness and acheiving realistic weight loss. The staff is friendly and the facility is nice. If you're fortunate enough and have the right mind set, Reshanna Boswell is the absolute best. I say this because unlike many trainers I have had in the past, and I have had 8 in the last 16 years. She actually gives a damn and will work hard to help you achieve your goals. But you must do the work both inside and out of the gym. I promise it won't happen overnight, but if you truly want to lose fat and build muscle, I started at 293lbs and now I am 220lbs. I repeat, Reshanna is the absolute best. I know this because I wanted to quit so many times and she wouldn't let me give up. This place change my life and Reshanna saved it by showing me how to manage my weight loss long term. Thanks again, Reshanna and Evolve Fitness Chicago. read more

I am the type of person that hates working out... I hate it... I won't do it on my own... but when I put it on the calendar and have someone pushing me, I do it... even though I might complain the entire work out... Then I found Evolve. I have been training at Evolve and attending bootcamps for around four months now. This is the first gym that has 'stuck' for me. Josh, my trainer, is in tune with my fitness goals, and despite me not yet dropping weight, my body has transformed. I'm still working on proper form and getting lots of coaching along the way... but I can do things I never could before -- push-up, planks, and even.... pull-ups! I've started melting fat and gaining muscle. I can see the beginning of tone in my stomach, my legs have slimmed, and for the first time in my life, I have a small bicep bump when I flex. I live for the small-group bootcamps. Every trainer that teaches them has a unique approach, but these different styles help me have well-rounded overall fitness. Josh, Jeanette, Jeff Z., Phil, Sarah, Sam and Reshanna have all been excellent teachers! The other great part of the bootcamps are the relationships you can build with other fitness junkies -- lots of laughs and encouragement!!! The close personal environment allows you to get to know other trainers too. Both Brian and Phil are hilarious and make me laugh even when I hate that I'm doing squats. Basically, Evolve is a family that I'm honored to be a part of. I'm excited to continue training, toning, and learning in the Evolve environment! read more

I am so happy that I found Evolve! I've been working out with Dennis for 3 months now. Dennis is a fantastic trainer! He's motivating but also very accommodating to your personal goals and helps you strengthen while being mindful of your body. I am not someone who worked out regularly ever. I'm not athletic. I like to eat. So as you might imagine I've I gained a few lbs over the years. This past winter I decided to really start living a healthier lifestyle. Baby steps. Evolve is only a few blocks from where I live and I thought working out there would erase any excuses since it's only a 2 min. walk away. I have always had a back prone to going out a few times a year. Dennis completely understands and works with me to strengthen it while also happily modifying exercises for me if I need it. I recently wasn't in town for 2 weeks and I was shocked how much I missed my workouts! Highly recommend Evolve and their dedicated team of personal trainers. read more

"When I was 17 I weighed 362 lbs and my hips measured 64 inches around. I didn't believe I was going to live past my 18th birthday. With the support of my family I went ahead and had a version of the gastric bypass, known as mini gastric bypass. By the time I was 27 years old, ten years had passed and I weighed 200lbs calculating my total weightless to be 162lbs. Even though I lost an entire person, I didn't feel healthy, I didn't feel strong, I really still felt like I was 362lbs even though I wasn't. I found out about Evolve Fitness through a friend and met with Josh. Finding out Josh had also struggled with obesity as a youth connected me with him. I felt comfortable being guided into this process with him and trusted that he was going to take care of me and protect me. A year ago today, I didn't know how to jump, skip, or really walk properly. Josh has taught me more about my body in this past year than the 28 years I currently had it on my own. My initial meeting with Josh I expressed that I did not want to come in and be skinny. I wanted to be healthy, I wanted to be strong and one year in I am. I have seen my body transform beyond what any surgical procedure could do. Josh is supportive but most importantly he is patient. I have cried in front of him, I have cursed him out and through it all, he smiles and tell me to 'get it' and keep going. I have given my trust over to Josh to help me through my journey to a healthy lifestyle and recommend him to anyone who really wants to commit to changing his or her life. Gastric Bypass saved my life. Josh, Jeanette and the entire team at Evolve fitness, well, they are making sure that this life I have is going to be worth living. You can see my photos on Evolve Fitness's Testimonial Page. read more

This is a mix of 5 stars and 2 stars for an aggregate of 3 stars. Let me explain. Facility and Location: Both are great and well above what I'd expected. The place is easy to find and parking is always available. The facility is clean, well lit and ventilated, perfect temperature, and can play music in the background. I love how it is not a chain gym and the only people there are trainers and clients. Price per session: The cost for sessions is way above what you pay at a chain gym, including Equinox and FFC. I'd say it's worth it if every other aspect of the experience is fantastic. In my case it was not, so under my circumstances, I'd have a hard time justifying the price. You can purchase single sessions or buy packages in groups of 12. The cost goes down the more sessions you buy. NOTE: There are no refunds (unless you cancel within three consecutive days and in writing) so keep that in mind. Sessions are 45 minutes long. Owner: Very nice. No issues communicating with her and she has always been receptive to feedback and did try to work with me when I mentioned a few major issues I was having with my trainer. Trainers: Trainers are contract employees and there are a few of them. They all seem nice. I've worked with one primary one and I had one session with one as a substitute. All trainers are contract employees (like Uber). They contact you directly to schedule and don't deal with any of the financials etc. My experience with the trainer: This is where it's weird and the main reason for the three stars. Overall, the training was great, when it happened, and I was starting to see myself reaching the goals I had set. All that said, by the end of the 12 sessions, I was not looking forward to working out with that particular trainer anymore. We've had multiple scheduling issues (cancelled) or workouts starting very late and in the end, he was unable to accommodate the schedule I had originally asked for at the beginning. It seemed almost like a bait and switch scenario. I have very limited availability and cannot do weekends. All of a sudden, Fridays were no longer an option but his weekends were wide open. Also, I travel for work sometimes and Friday is the only day for me that is consistent. To reach my goals, I planned on three times a week, Mon, Wed, Friday for the next 3 months. I react very well to set schedules and had budgeted accordingly. With the trainer's schedule restrictions that came into play at the end, there would be weeks I would not be able to have a session. Along with a few other concerns that we were unable to overcome, I would say by the end, the situation was terribly frustrating. I really wanted this to be that constant thing I could always count on. At the current cost per session, which is considerable for 45 minutes, I would expect more ability to meet my needs. Overall: Would I go back? Absolutely. The space is great and I definitely saw results. My issue was there simply was no way to maintain any sort of regular schedule, which I need. I do believe the investment is worth it, and it is definitely an investment. If everything works out for you scheduling wise I would recommend Evolve. I would say my experience was the exception and not the rule....I hope. read more

At the risk of sounding cheesy, I have to say that training at Evolve Fitness has changed my life. I have been active most of my life, but I have never looked or felt particularly fit or strong. I stumbled upon Evolve while browsing the internet for a new gym. I was looking for a place where I could finally get into great shape and not get bored. Evolve has far exceeded my expectations. I never thought I would be someone to work with a personal trainer, but it has been worth every single penny! I have not only seen my body change but I have also transformed the way I view health and fitness. Jeannette will start by helping pair you with a trainer who fits your goals, schedule, and personality. You are never locked in to working with only one trainer, but she is shockingly good at this twist on matchmaking. All of the trainers have extensive education and credentials. They each have their own individual style and approach, but they all share a common passion to help you achieve your own goals, whatever they may be. I was paired with Phil and he is awesome! I work with him about once a week, and I always look forward to it because I know I am going to sweat and laugh a lot. He is very in tune to the uniqueness of each of his clients. He always challenges me to discover new limits, and he keeps variety in each training session. It has taken several months of hard work, but Phil has helped me get to a place where I appreciate and love my body. Dropping multiple dress sizes has been an added bonus! The boot camp classes provide additional variety and the 45 minute session is a perfect length. You never know exactly what the session will entail, but it is guaranteed to be an excellent and challenging work out. The other people in the class also make things so much fun by encouraging each other. The trainers maximize every single minute so you can get stronger and see results without spending all your time in the gym. Evolve stands above the rest and is a welcoming and refreshing environment. Contrary to what you may see in other gyms or on TV, you won't find trainers carrying around checklists on clipboards or yelling condescending comments. You will, however, find an amazing group of people who are genuinely dedicated to supporting and encouraging you to reach your own personal goals. If you are willing to put in the time, hard work, and patience to do things the right way, you are guaranteed to change your life in ways you can't even imagine. read more

I've been going to Evolve for personal training for about five months so far and it has been a great experience. The owners, Jeannette and Josh are very friendly and encouraging. Jeanette will set you up with a trainer that is suited to your personal needs and goals. For example, I have a couple of old injuries and muscle imbalances to deal with. She set me up with a trainer named Dennis who is an expert at Muscle Activation Technique and he is able to work around and help resolve my various issues. Dennis is great, super well informed and always upbeat and supportive. Most importantly, he helps me to get results! In my five months here, I have lost at least 25 pounds and at least six inches in my waist! I am immeasurably more fit and healthy than I was before. At Evolve can work out with different trainers or have sessions with one person but attend boot camps run by another. I often hear the trainers talking with each other, sharing advice, exercises and information. It is great to know that there is a whole team behind you and they are all working together to help you reach your goals. The actual facility isn't that big, but the space is well used and always clean. In terms of equipment, they have pretty much anything you could want in a gym including things like TRX and boxing equipment. The big advantage over a regular gym is that it is almost never crowded and you don't end up waiting on machines to free up. Everyone that I've come across here, both employees and clients, are friendly, considerate and supportive. If you are looking for personal training in Chicago, I highly recommend Evolve! read more

Evolve is a great personal training gym! It's fantastic that you are only able to work out here with a personal trainer and I echo pretty much everything that has already been said on here. When I started at Evolve, my needs included: - losing wieght -Figuring out how to eat healthier -Learning workouts I can do on my own - an environment that makes me feel welcome and relaxed I have been training with Sam now for just about 6 months and I could not be happier. I enjoy going to my workouts knowing that I am going to be pushed to achieve my goals. He listens to make sure any injuries and aches and pains aren't bothersome and listens to what you want to accomplish. I also had a few workouts with Phil and highly recommend him as well. All in all the investment is worth it. They make you feel welcome from your first session and you can tell everyone working out there wants to be there, which is rare. When deciding on where to find a personal trainer Evolve is definitely worth it! read more

I have known Josh and Jeanette for a few years now and I wouldn't train with anyone else in Chicago. My family has been training with them for more than five years now. No one that I have ever met knows how to get more out of your workout or can push you to your very best like they can. They truly care about your health and individual needs. Your are not just a customer to them. They become your life coach, trainer, cheerleader, and most of all friend. If you get the chance to check them out you should. read more

Great Manager!!! Very upbeat and clean! It is an awesome place to workout! Atmosphere is great. Personal Trainers available! I would recommend this to all of your friends It is a great gym! read more

I have been going to Evolve for 3 months now. I see Christina 2 days a week and I'm SO happy I started going here. Christina not only helps me meet my fitness goals but has turned into a friend. Everyone in there is kind and you never feel judged for how fit you are. It's been a fabulous experience and I'm so happy I've been able to work with Christina for the time being. read more

If you are looking for a gym where you can come and go unnoticed, Evolve is not for you. From the first time you walk through the doors, you become part of the family and team. It doesn't matter what kind of shape you are in, what your goals are, if you are feeling like a hot mess or on top of the world, you are always welcomed with open arms, a smile, and endless amounts of support. Plus, you know that 'competitive- pompous-comparing' atmosphere you find at most big gyms? There is none of that at Evolve. The owners only hire the top trainers, each with their own specialties and unique training styles. You get paired up with the trainer that best matches your personal goals and history. The bootcamp classes are are a great way to meet other people, and they always kick your butt! Evolve has dramatically changed my perspective on health and fitness, and has helped me to establish a great routine of taking care of myself. Evolve is about health and fitness, yes, but it is also about lifestyle and having fun. The facility is always clean, tidy, efficient, and offers every type of equipment. I have tried multiple other gyms, and there is no other like this. I love Evolve and am so thankful that I found it! read more

Personal training with Eve has made my workouts a lot of fun and she customizes a workout according to your needs, she does an outstanding job and I have already seen and felt improvements just in 5 weeks. Eve has taken my workouts to next level. Evolve fitness is a very clean facility and is run very well by the owners Josh and Jeannette who make you feel comfortable immediately. Jeannette has no problems setting you up with the trainer that's right for you. If you are just starting out to try to lose weight, get into shape, or take your workout to the next level like me this is place I recommend. There are Saturday morning classes for adults and kids as well. Eve is running the adult class and I am watching all the adults getting in a good workout, having fun and laughing all at the same time. While trainer Melissa is running the class for kids, it looks like she does a pretty good job expending their energy. Nothing better than seeing kids laughing and having fun to start your morning. I confess though, I am glad the kids are done when I start my workout. read more

My wife and I have trained at Evolve for the last year and a half. We both started with different goals, and after an initial interview with Meghan she matched us with the perfect trainers to meet our objectives. As an experienced lifter, my focus was on improving Olympic Lifting technique and improved mobility. As a novice, my wife's focus was on learning her way around the gym, key exercise concepts, proper form and losing weight. Meghan and Evolve has us covered! We couldn't be happier with our results, our trainers Brian and Sam are exceptional. I've trained with NFL players, world class Jiu Jitsu athletes and first responders, and the trainers and programming at Evolve are second to none. Thank you! read more

I highly recommend Evolve for all types of athletes, but for me personally, it was the perfect place for me to reinvigorate my fitness routine after several years on the road for work and not working out. Extremely down to earth atmosphere and staff, so I felt right at home. My trainer, Tim Deagon, was fantastic to work with. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and personable and really got to know me and help me map out/achieve my fitness and health goals. Most important, Evolve's approach was effective and easy for me to fit into my everyday routine on top of work and everything else. I was also able to take advantage of multiple free boot camps each week to supplement my PT regimen, which I got a ton of value out of. Overall, great place to workout and super passionate staff/owner (including Meghan, Evolve's owner)! read more

Evolve's new gym is awesome! The new enviornment provides a work out space that is clean & modern and has brand new equipment to go along with it. I work out with Josh, who is one of the owners, and I can tell you that this move was truly a labor of love! He did much of the manual work himself, down to laying all the flooring & putting together many of their new "toys". I wrote an initial review a year ago, and even now continue to enjoy my workouts along with the people and staff I share them with. Workouts remain challenging & I never leave without breaking a sweat, whether it be a one on one session or boot camp. One thing that has never waivered is the inclusive atmosphere of the gym. Even in the beginning, I never felt intimidated or out of place. It continues to be a place of positivity & encouragement, which is really important! "Newbies" are welcomed and embraced and "veterans" are now friends and work out partners. Thanks, Evolve - I'm here to stay! :) read more

Just Go. Need more convincing? Here: 1. They are professional and good. Josh, Jeanette and the Evolve team know fitness and the body. I train with Josh- the guy is a fitness maven. I feel more, see more and do more with him in 45 min than I do after working out on my own at a gym for 2 hours. Sarah's bootcamps are as fun as they are challenging. You will leave smiling and sore. 2. Treat yourself. Yes, a personal training session is more expensive than your Gold's Gym membership, but it's worth it and so are you. The personal attention, scheduling flexibility, and above all RESULTS are worth it. You deserve to put the same amount of energy and resources you put into your work and partying into your fitness goals. Did I mention it's worth it? 3. It is easier than going alone. Yes, you can buy your Men's Fitness, P90X tapes, and general gym membership and go at it alone. But these guys will get you to your goal quicker and easier. You would take your car to a professional for service right, even though you can read a manual and buy some tools? Do the same for your body, let the professionals at Evolve keep it running. If you are reading this it's likely because you are on the fence, as was I. After 6 months with Evolve, I can confidently recommend the following - Just Go. read more

I was looking for a place to whip me into shape for my wedding. My friend brought me for a boot camp class and I was immediately hooked. Jeannette and Josh were amazing from the start. Every time I walked in the door, I felt welcome. They are genuine, selfless and devoted to everyone who goes there. Their trainers, especially Josh, Jeannette and Jeff who I worked with, and all of their clients are just as friendly as they are. It is such a friendly and supportive atmosphere. I am always excited and eager to go to Evolve. Working out there never seems like a chore. On the day of my wedding and leading up to it, I couldn't have received more compliments on how great my arms and back looked. Everything was exactly how I wanted it to be and I was and am beyond thrilled with the results! I am a clean freak and Evolve is spotless. All the equipment is immediately cleaned and everything is in place for easy location. Everyone at Evolve are great motivators. My experience has been more than perfect and I look forward to working with the team more! They have inspired my once no-need-to-work-out-because-I'm-too-lazy-to-personality, to enjoying it and wanting to continue on. I feel better about myself thanks to them, and I definitely have a more positive outlook on how working out should be. If you want results in a realistic time frame, Evolve is the place to go. They are professional, honest, patient, understanding, and will bring on exactly what it is that you're looking for! read more

Dennis Trelinski relieved twice a week my pain after my foot surgery while rehabilitating/training me and using Muscle Activation Technique. Dennis is not only amazingly knowledgeable about anatomy but he will concisely and subtlety make the imbalances in your body disappear and be extremely careful about your body mechanic while exercising under his eagle eye! I rarely met someone who can tell you any single muscle and ligaments in your body and can heal it! He is the best trainer and believe me I train for the last 8 years and am a massage therapist! read more

In preparation for my upcoming wedding, I started training at Evolve about a year ago and have been thrilled not only with the results, but also the positive, supportive, challenging and fun energy that the gym and the trainers offer. The space is clean and organized and the environment is encouraging, professional, relaxed (as much as a gym can be!) and not intimidating in the least. After signing up, I sat down for an introductory session to discuss my goals, workout history, injuries, etc. which was used to tailor my plan and workout to achieve the results I desired. Another benefit are the boot camps provided throughout the week, which clients can attend free of charge (and are very challenging!). Working with a trainer is an investment and this stretches the value beyond individual sessions. My trainer is Sam and I always look forward to our sessions because I know I'm going to receive a challenging workout. Previously, I'd had minimal experience with weights and machines. Sam not only provides great workouts during our sessions, but also educated me on how to use the equipment safely, improve my form and provided nutrition expertise, which is knowledge I'll use into the future. This is meaningful as it demonstrates Sam (and the rest of the trainers) make an investment in their clients, beyond the actual time spent in the gym. I would absolutely recommend Evolve to individuals at any fitness level looking for a challenging, inclusive, FUN environment with tailored, progressive workouts and awesome trainers. Thanks Evolve!! read more

Evolve Fitness is a great place to workout. I personally workout there and I get pushed to my limits and then some every time I go. The trainers there are very professional and know exactly what they are doing. I have been training with them for over a year and have been in the best shape ever. I really like the personal relationship you have when workout out here. The trainer is completely focused on you for the hour of working out which in return gives you the best workout you can ever have. Evolve Rocks!!!! read more

The main reason I joined Evolve and not a bigger chain facility was because of its personalized approach of pairing you with a trainer. I needed to work out one on one with someone in order to keep me motivated and committed. The location was also minutes from my home, which was an even bigger plus. I'd say straight away that the higher cost you pay for this type of membership should be something you consider when making your decision. In my case, I knew that this was the only way I would remain consistent and so has been well worth the money for me. Meghan, the owner, is wonderful. She meets with you personally before having you sign anything and thinks about which trainer is most appropriate for your goals. I've worked with two trainers since I've joined (Dennis, who has since left and now Jeff) and both have been very knowledgeable, flexible, and overall a joy to work with. The gym itself is small but very well maintained, and particularly during Covid times the staff have taken utmost care in making sure all equipment is wiped down and sanitized. And despite the small area, the gym never feels overcrowded. I also like that you see clients who represent "real people" who are trying to attain/maintain their ideal level of fitness at various stages, so the atmosphere is not at all intimidating. So if a personalized workout program in a smaller setting is what you're interested in Evolve definitely fulfills! read more

If you are looking for a truly personalized workout with true results this is the place to be. The one on one attention they give is top notch. If you are a beginner or advanced athlete they know just the right amount to push you to see true results. They will change your life. I like when you walk in you know everyone is down to business but you are treated like one of the family. They are truly happy when you reach your goals. Its not a fashion show there like other club type gyms that Ive been use to. This is just straight forward hard core get your body where it should be kinda place...Great job guys! read more

I started at Evolve almost two years ago with the goal of getting back into fitness. I had slacked for a while and really needed a kick to get me going again! I picked the perfect place! I really love Evolve. I train with Josh and he is truly excellent. He varies the work-outs a TON and keeps my interest. When I have lower energy days, he modifies the work-outs perfectly. When I need to get out some frustration, he incorporates hitting the heavy bag. All great stuff! read more

This is a great studio and the instructors/trainers are awesome! Can't get enough of boot camp classes with Jeanette! Guaranteed member for life!!! read more

If you're looking for a top notch personal trainer at a reasonable rate, Evolve is your place! I bought a 48 pack and it equalled out to about $66 per session. This includes the weekly boot camp classes they offer too. They have a new member special that I recommend taking advantage of. The owner, Meghan, is wonderful and took the time to sit with me (met in person) to go over my goals and match me with the best trainer. I've trained with both Christina and Dennis. Both taught me a lot about my body and what I could do to get the results I wanted (at home work outs and nutrition advice). I'm so much stronger than I was a year ago. The gym itself is clean, has a good variety of equipment and doesn't get crowded. I highly recommend this place. read more

My husband and I joined Evolve earlier this year and had a pleasure working with Reshanna. We were looking to push our fitness to the next level and Reshanna helped us obtain that goal. She pushed us during our workouts and was very helpful with nutrition tips. She worked with us to tweak our workouts to improve the outcomes on a regular basis. Scheduling was seamless and the onboarding with Meghan, the owner, was super easy! read more

Evolve is a great private, personal training gym. It is like a second home to me. You cannot go wrong when you make the commitment to work out, get fit and get healthy there. When I started at Evolve, my wants/expectations were: - a personal trainer who is committed to my specific goals - an environment that makes me feel welcome and relaxed - a professional facility that is not intimidating, at all - a good value for my time and financial commitment - great results! All my wants/expectations have been met, and more! Jeannette took the time, when she first consulted with me, to pair me with the trainer that would best help me reach my goals. She is also great at pairing personalities! Evolve has a wide variety of trainers, each with a different approach. Each with a different professional specialty. I have been training with Dennis for the past 18 months. With his guidance and support, I have achieved the results I wanted from working out. Dennis knew I was a beginner and he took the time to explain how/why. He quickly gained my trust and confidence. Once we achieved my first set of goals, we decided on and set new goals - how great is that! Dennis and Evolve have changed my life. If you are going to invest the time and money into personal training, Evolve is definitely worth it. read more

The past year I had started to just feel really weak and out of shape. After trying and failing to get stronger on my own I went to Evolve and met with the studio's owner, Meghan. Meghan couldn't have been nicer and more supportive, I had never had a personal trainer before and was really nervous about it. Meghan paired me up with Tim and I couldn't be happier with my decision. After 36 sessions, I am stronger, healthier and just feel all around better. Tim truly tailors the training to you. He knows how hard to push you and is very generous with his knowledge of fitness and nutrition. He understands that eventually you'll have to do this on your own and makes sure to give you the tools to do so. I highly recommend Evolve and their super talented team. read more

My wife and i have been going to Evolve for the past two years. We were tired of going to the big box gyms and getting trainers who either didn't know what they were doing or didn't care. That all changed with Evolve. I've worked out with trainers in the past, but I've never experienced such a high level of quality and commitment before. Jeannette, Josh, and their team aren't worried about signing you up for the next package. They truly want you to improve and live a healthier life (despite how hard I try otherwise). If I need a kick in the butt, they know how to give it. If I need a pick me up because work has kicked my ass, they provide it. They truly care about their clients and it shows by how I continue to see the same people every single week. But, forget about how nice Evolve's team is, the most important thing is you get results. With the big box stores, I simply would not see any results. They would just do the same workouts again and again because it was easy for them. That's not Evolve. The workouts are always changing and I have definitely noticed the results. We recently moved to a new place. Before working out with Evolve, I would have been worried about safely lifting boxes and going up and down all of those flights of stairs. That didn't happen this time around. I was even surprised with the items I was able to lift with ease and without any concern of getting hurt. It saved us hundreds of dollars in movers. Without a doubt, signing up with Evolve will be a decision you will never regret. Of course it costs some money, but so does getting the crappy trainers at the other gyms. Why not wisely spend your money at Evolve, where you have a known commodity and know you will get the results you desire? It will be the best decision you have made in a long time. read more

Excellent program and even better people. I wholeheartedly recommend Evolve!

Great new place that has come to Roscoe Village in a long time. The fitness classes are awesome as are the instructors and the owners. Sunday morning yoga with Kristin is the perfect way to get your morning started. Zumba with Ron is a blast and a great workout. And surely Josh will have you in fighting shape before the official opening of the beach. Do yourself a favor and check it out!!!! read more
