I am…read moregreeted with smiles every time I walk in, but Anyu has really paid attention to my health issues and has follow up questions and suggestions every time. She has been a breath of fresh air to the whole team- they are all noticeably more friendly and pumped to be there- I don't take a ton of classes but got in with one of Aaron's today and it was so fun... I was intimidated to try to sauna and steam room for the first couple of months because it's coed, but it's really no big deal. I DO wish they had actual tanning booths like the site claims- not just red light therapy. These are different types of machines and I do feel that was misleading. And on the site it does say there are pools and hot tubs but my location does not have either which is a bummer. The locker rooms are almost always spotless and the showers are nice and large, though water pressure is lacking. I just scheduled my pt appt and I look forward to that session! There is great turf space for functional strength training and there are always enough weights to go around if you just look- I love the inferred yoga classes too! I've taken a couple of the dance classes and a bunch of the studio red HIIT classes and will continue to... All in all, this gym is absolutely amazing-- if it had a hybrid uv/red light therapy tanning booth I'd be so thrilled!

Khoshal is the…read moretype of trainer that pushes you to your max without making you feel like you are being judged in anyway. I have done UFC before and that boot camp atmosphere did NOT work for me . With Khoshal, I come in every day knowing I am going to 1. Have a great work out and 2. Have fun. In just 2 months I have lost 10 pounds of FAT which amounts to about 4-5% body fat. It doesn't sound like much, but I have hypothyroidism. Since being diagnosed , I've struggled with losing weight. I have gained my confidence back and feel healthier than I've ever felt. Honestly, I stopped watching the scale and pay more attention to how healthy I feel and look! Lastly, this is not only a gym , it's a community! I have met some solid quality people ... including khoshal. The environment is friendly and supportive and I wouldn't want to go to any other gym ! It truly is a lifestyle - just as the slogan suggests! Highly, highly recommend !!!!

FIT Boutique encompasses the key qualities anyone would look for in a personal training gym: Great…read moreWorkouts, Knowledgeable and Friendly trainers, and a Motivating Environment. Almost 3 years ago, I was recommended by a friend of mine to check out FIT Boutique and immediately decided to purchase a ten-session package - the prices are very fair. The gym was a new environment for me; there was so much to learn, and I was just a beginner. The owner, Jim, made me feel comfortable and welcomed whenever I stepped foot in FIT Boutique, answering any questions I had regarding exercise. As an all-around very friendly and knowledgeable guy, Jim really motivated me to continue pursuing strength and good health for years to come! My goals when signing up included building muscle, endurance, and strength. My trainer, Shane, instituted growth in me through a vast amount of exercises that helped me reach my goals, and after just the first 2 sessions I was beginning to see the results I wanted. Throughout the process, he motivated me to push myself, and also made sure I felt good after each workout. Needless to say, this was a life-changing period of time for me as I gained skills, perfected form, and I continue to learn exercises. I definitely recommend you check out FIT Boutique!

I have never been to a personal trainer, but I am a big fan of Fit Boutique. I came for the 8…read moresessions for $100 and have continued on because of the results that I have seen. After my first session, the first time working out in way too long, it was difficult pressing the button on my garage door opener. Since then I am no longer destroyed after my sessions, but know that I have had a good workout. Jim, the owner and my trainer has been cool and flexible with my schedule and has provided just the right amount of motivation without making things unpleasant. The price is a bit expensive, but you are paying for good equipment in a convenient location, and one-on-one time with a professional. When I am there, the gym is not crowded and the music has been good. Try it out - as far as I know, the $100 for 8 1 hour personal training sessions is still going.

Only recently did our fees go up but again it's worth being a member if you go enough and take advantage of any of their other amenities like their daycare, the indoor and outdoor pools. We have heard there's a waiting list and believe it as it does get crowded at times but not super crowded. I have been to several other Lifetime properties in the Chicagoland area and this is in my top 5 locations. The staff is great as well as the trainers that work there. You can tell business is good when you rarely see a trainer solo. Instead they are working with clients, training away. I do find it strange that the GM trains some people as he's taking away from his other trainers. The folks at the Cafe are wonderful and friendly as well. Let's not forget about the workers at the Daycare! Doreen, Wilma and their crew all work their tail off taking care of the babies, toddlers and kids. God bless em.

The friendly comraderee of both clients and the owners is really nice! This small, family run gym…read moreis totally delightful. It's small enough that clients receive personal attention/help during group circuit training. The guidance and tips from trainers Goran & Mia absolutely improved my somewhat marginal positioning during various exercises. And they constantly watch out for people so they don't overdo. But be clear, if they know you can do a few more reps, they will cheer you on to squeeze a few more in. Goran says once it starts to feel like you are getting tired from the reps, try to do 5 more because those last 5 are the ones that really count to tax your muscles so they will strengthen. Everyone is encouraging and kind and truly wants to see you improve and get stronger. And in my first several weeks of going (1 hr 3x week), I meet some wonderful people who have been going to Premier Fitness for many years, even decades! That should tell you something right there!

In February my father had a hip replacement, and about 5 weeks ago in September he had a full knee replacement on the opposite leg. He is an avid cyclist, and in good shape (thanks to Donny), but he is now also 74 years old. With the support of this trainer, who works specifically with seniors or nearing that stage in life (though he is still incredible with others like me too!!!) Dad is back on the road 5 weeks post op, riding his bike, and more (should I mention he was on the roof, or driving 3 weeks sooner than he should have been?) Seriously folks, if it were not for Donny's guidance, Dad would never have been able to get through this as well as he has, and in all honesty...he probably would have had to have the surgeries sooner, and also backed off of a sport he is passionate about. Now he is hoping to even run his first 5k and do "at least" a sprint distance triathlon. Donny Thompson may not be a magician, but he truly is amazing to me and my family for the work he has done with my father through the years. Thank you....
