Honestly, MaxP changed my life. I originally purchased a Groupon for 2 weeks at the gym, and at the…read moreend of it, I ended up getting a year-long membership. They counsel you on healthy eating and provide meal plans. They also have a deal with another local business, Food4Fuel, where you can get 10% off pre-prepared healthy meals. Tbh, I've not really stuck to their meal plans. I just do calorie counting on my own (I want this to be a long term solution to my weight problems, not something that will burn off 50 lbs. that I'll gain as soon as I have to move away from Rockford). The 2 best things here, though, are the group workouts and the community. I have made so many friends at MaxP that I would have never known otherwise. Oh, and I've lost 20 lbs. AND! I can feel abs for the first time in my entire life! It's expensive, but it is so, so worth it. The people are amazing, the workouts make you feel better than you ever have, and the accountability makes your goals actually achievable.

If you follow your coaches instructions, you'll get results. Period. I didn't have much weight to lose when I started, but I've lost 25lbs in fat and gained quite a bit of muscle. I have never felt better & that was the whole reason I wanted to join - to feel my best. Thanks MaxP for always meeting me where I'm at!

Clean, up to date equipment. These gyms have a little of everything and are great for beginners or…read morethose who aren't sure where to start. For 'Black Card' members, they have tanning beds, massage chairs, and total body enhancement "angel" machines. BC holders may also bring a guest. Staff was friendly and greeted me as soon as I walked through the door. My only issue is the employee had no idea how to work the angel machine, so I had I to figure it out for myself. Even with the instruction information on the wall, its a little difficult to get the hang of. So I don't blame them, but I do think since they work there, they should have some idea of how the machines are operated for those that are new to them like me.

I owe it all to Brandy's weight, cardio and stretching training. Brandy has also given me a nutrition plan that works for me. I have done workouts and diets all through my life but have never got the results I have with Brandy. Brandy has a wonderful personality and knows what is best for me.

This review is for the Loves Park location. Haven't tried the State St. location. Posted my review…read morebefore realizing it was for the wrong location and can't seem to be able to delete it. However, I anticipate the review to be very similar since it's the same gym run by the same people with the same business structure. Loves Park Peak: The gym is spacious and offers a lot of equipment which is nice. However, customer service is lacking. You walk in and the front desk is more of a hang out spot for the employees to chat amongst themselves instead of being customer service oriented. It's a higher end gym, you would think the members would be treated as such. The classes, have the right equipment, but the up beat energy of instructors to motivate and hype up the members and command a class is missing. I took a cycling class, great music, great ambiance and lighting, but the motivation, excitement, and hype at the front of the room from the instructors was sad and lacking. I tried many different times and different instructors, but sadly didn't find anything other than lacking. They seemed nice though. I do come from a high end gym, Club Studio, in Irvine CA. where their classes are all one big epic party while working out with great ambiance, great sound system, great mood lighting, and top notch instructors that elevate and motivate you throughout the whole class. Sadly, they do not have a Club Studio yet in Rockford and I did end up leaving Peak. Couldn't really justify the price of the membership at Peak when you can get close to the same amenities at any other gym in the area. Good gym. Nothing special. Not worth the hype.
