    While you can sign up for their membership (fees for in- and out-of-district), I am a fan of their indoor track that is totally free and open to the public.

    This is a 24 hour gym by the Village Crossing mall. The owner, Dan, is very friendly and gave me a…read morelittle tour. The gym isn't huge but it also wasn't terribly busy at the time I went. It was just right for me. There's cardio machines, strength training machines, plenty of free weights, dumbells, etc.

    I decided to get a gym membership at anytime fitness, because my health insurance allows me to go…read moreto multiple gyms. Plus I wanted an option in case I had to fight a case of insomnia and couldn't go to sleep, and I need it to work out in the middle of the night. This anytime fitness is located near the Village Crossing Mall, off to the side on Central Avenue, away from the other stores. The person who registered me was super nice and friendly and gave me a tour of the place. The size of the gym is somewhat small, I would compare to a couple steps up from a hotel gym but slightly bigger. In terms of the equipment, it has several cardio machines, and a few squat racks, which doubles as a bench press if you set the height and bench properly. There's also some free weights, and free benches as well. What I look for at a gym is a place to do squats, deadlifts, bench press, and overhead press. Everything else is a bonus. They do have several machines, but nothing too serious for a good leg workout. But overall it gets the job done. There is no locker room per se, but there is three private bathrooms, which includes a sink, shower, and toilet. Overall, I would go here and recommend, if you're looking for a place that is 24 hours, but not as busy like an Xsport, with average equipment.

    I'm not going to say that I was EXTREMELY reluctant to take classes at a studio which not only…read morepromotes contorting your body in ways you otherwise thought impossible, but also does it in a minimum of 100 degree temperature. But I was reluctant. That being said, they do offer a FREE WEEK OF UNLIMITED CLASSES, and I just can't help myself when FREE is involved. So, naturally, I signed up. What can I say, I'm hooked. I am. I feel better about myself when I'm dripping in sweat, I suppose. Try this, folks. Trust me. You just need to experience the first week and you'll be sold. So reviews you can use: Location: It's located on the back outer edge of Old Orchard Shopping Center, so parking is VERY convenient. INTERIOR: Seems small when you walk in, but this place has full-service locker rooms for men and women. The women's locker room has all you need. Lockers (must bring own lock), showers, bathrooms (duh), and...hair dryers, brushes, mousse, gel, hairspray, hair ties, bobby pins and cotton swabs. If you go before work or another engagement, you can ready yourself right there and then. Sweet. STUDIO: The studio is dedicated ONLY to hot yoga practice, so the rooms are set up with built in humidifiers. This is a plus, I've gone to other hot yoga classes when mini portable steam machines are used and its just not the same. INSTRUCTORS: Super nice. Emphasis on the nice. They are informative during class and assist you with positions when needed. They walk around the room during classes to check that everyone is in correct alignment and are extremely accommodating to those who need to regress to easier positions. Honest, I've been one of those people, so I know firsthand. I have to give a special shout out to the location manager J.S. (you know who you are). You're sweet, pleasant, understanding and an excellent instructor. Thank you. OTHER COMMENTS: THE LEMON/LAVENDER TOWELS!! Good Lawd. This, I recently learned, is unique to suburban locations only. At the end of each class, when you're not really sure you'll ever be able to walk again (or dry off the sweat for that matter) the instructor walks around a places an ice cold lemon/lavender towel on your forehead. After my first ever class, I teared up. No joke. It's orgasmic. I say that with all seriousness. Unlike smaller "non-corporate" studios, here you have to pay for towels and mats if you forget yours. So, if you're trying it for the free week, either borrow a mat from a friend and remember to bring a towel (and a bottle of water) or the FREE will be null and void. There's also apparel, mats, towels and lotions available for purchase. The prices are just as high as one would expect, so bring your money if you a ready to invest.

    It has been about a year since I've last visited Corepower Yoga so I was surprised when I saw the…read morerenovated space. I've tried Hot Power Fusion with Lou and Yoga Sculpt with Melissa P. It seems like Yoga Sculpt is the more popular class of the two. I loved Yoga Sculpt! It combines weights, cardio, & yoga in one hour. It was definitely a tough workout, but I felt like I was definitely getting my time & money's worth. Both instructors were nice. Lou seems a bit calmer while Melissa seems to have more energy. For first timers, the first week is completely free. If you want to come back after that: -Usually you can find a Groupon deal or -The first month of membership is $99 or (After that I believe it jumps up to about $140) -Drop ins are $20 each or You can get a student/teacher discount with a valid ID. I love working out here, but it's quite pricey.
