I was already thinking about canceling my xsport membership before all the covid stuff happened. Now I can say that since I found and joined gym addict, I won't be returning to xsport. Gym addict is a smaller gym. It looks really small on the outside but I can assure you once you go inside you will be surprised how much space there is to move around and workout without being bunched together. They have several machines, free weights, squat racks and an open area for stretching or any other exercise you can think of doing. The one thing they also have that caught my attention was the two heavyweight bags they have set up near the back of the gym. I love boxing and since my boxing gym has yet to reopen, this really saved the day. The owners are very helpful. They are a husband and wife and I would much rather support a family owned establishment then to keep giving money to a corporation that only cares about your money. You can tell the owners take alot of pride in their gym. The gym is always clean, the equipment is well kept a and up to date, there are cleaning/sanitizing supplies all over the gym. The bathrooms are extremely clean and have everything you need for after a workout in case you forget anything at home. You can also receive personal training here if it suits you. Overall, I'm glad I stopped in and joined. If you are unhappy with your current health club or you're just looking for a closer/better option, I would highly suggest you give Gym Addict a try.

I've been going to LA Fitness for a while now, and overall it's been a solid gym experience…read more One of the biggest positives is the parking -- there's plenty of it, which makes it really convenient no matter what time you go. That alone makes a difference compared to other city gyms where you're circling the lot before even starting your workout. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. From the front desk to the floor staff, everyone's been approachable and professional whenever I've had questions or needed help. It can get pretty packed depending on the time of day, especially during peak after-work hours, so you might have to wait for certain machines. But if you go earlier in the morning or later at night, it's much more manageable. The sauna is a big plus. It's usually clean and well maintained, which is important. The locker rooms are also kept in good shape -- clean lockers, organized layout, and overall a comfortable space to get ready before or after workouts. Between the convenient parking, good staff, clean facilities, and solid amenities, it's a reliable spot to train.

In spite of it, I opt to go to Galter, because I think it is a lot better than the competition. What I like the most here are the fitness classes included in membership. You have to sign up for the more popular classes 48 hours in advance, because they fill up quickly. Try to take some classes like yoga or Aqua Mix/ Aqua Blast with Shannon, who is an awesome instructor. As others have mentioned, you will see all ages and body types here, so no need to be embarrassed if you are not in top shape. There are two pools (the West pool is bigger), a sauna, whirlpool, and a lot of equipment on the second floor. The staff is friendly and the place seems quite clean. The only negatives that I can see are very small towels and several lockers without working locks.

The membership is overpriced for the services they provide. There is also very little respect for members. They offer individual classes that take up entire lanes, leaving members unable to swim. They even state in their documents that people paying for those classes have priority. Well, I pay too--and I pay a very expensive membership, yet I feel that the needs of regular members are completely disregarded. There isn't even proper shampoo--just soap that they label as shampoo. People are allowed to use their phones, and nobody seems to enforce the rules. Overall, it feels like the facility has been abandoned and that management no longer cares about the members or the quality of the experience.

This place and the man who runs it are so hostile to the people using it that some former members even left to found their own gym!!! In the roughly 3 years I was a member here, the owner, Renato del Toro, seemed almost exclusively concerned with adding more shiny toys (niche machines) to his collection at the expense of things like cleaning regularly or complying with the building code by providing a clear means of egress or ensuring even flooring. It was deeply irritating to have to focus so intently on not running into anything while simply moving around the gym during a workout and know he didn't care at all. He also seems completely unconcerned with the legal liability this opens him up to, and I fear it's just a matter of time before someone is seriously hurt tripping over a piece of equipment due to his negligence. He once tried to install resin flooring in the locker area of the gym in the middle of the winter without doing the due diligence beforehand to find out what conditions would be ideal for installation or how long it would take to fully cure, so the gym was unexpectedly closed for two or three days that kept getting extended at the last minute, and the flooring looked bad. Additionally, his exclusive means of communication with members was through Instagram, which led to it generally being inconsistent, unprofessional, and publicly broadcast for no good reason. Given the Shane Gillis of it all, I would be remiss not to mention that this guy has only ever demonstrated the most perfunctory and ineffectual concern for how women feel at or about his gym, including being routinely dismissive of concerns lodged by trainers or female members because the feedback either threatened his incredibly fragile ego or would have required him to put in time and effort that he simply didn't care to. This includes making hostile personal attacks about multiple female trainers TO THEIR NEW GYMS after they left for somewhere they would presumably be listened to and respected. I understand the fitness space does not always attract the most intelligent or thoughtful people with the utmost respect for women, but I refuse to believe that any of us were asking for too much. Despite everything I've mentioned, he doesn't seem to understand that the culture of the gym starts with him and that respect is something one must earn, rather than something small business owners are entitled to for "trying their best" (he absolutely isn't). As his response to certain reviews indicates, he doesn't actually value negative feedback but will rather find a way to invalidate it if you are a woman he feels hasn't earned the right to criticize him. Despite his unconvincing arguments to the contrary, I know everything I need to know about his character through how he runs his business. My consistently unpleasant experience as a member of his gym and subsequent judgement of him as a businessman and person are entirely justified and entirely my own. Members only matter to him as long as they are completely uncritical and keep his flow of vacation and motorcycle money steady. This review is basically the same as what I posted on Google, and the owner's shameful, public, and profit-motivated retaliation against me motivated me to share it here as well. He claims I was banned "for my behavior towards a first generation latino making in this world [sic]" when in fact he only banned me after I requested to cancel and told him what I really thought about how he runs his business on my way out the proverbial door, which as my review indicates, has absolutely nothing to do with him being latino. A real "you can't fire me, I quit!" situation on his part. FWIW, I don't know of any men being banned for similar reasons! He also responded by clearly canvassing members who don't have a problem with him (slim pickings) for 5-star reviews to counteract the recent negative ones, including mine. His response also included the pathetic use of the "as a son and brother and uncle of a woman/girl" defense against misogyny, which further proves my point about his poor treatment of female members who question, criticize, or demand more of him for their hard-earned money. I hope you will take yours elsewhere.

I'm not new to working out with trainers, but I must say that Brittany is the best one I've had yet! I really like the straight up motivation and encouragement. She's very flexible with my schedule and can always do me in on the day I want. I also love the reminder texts I get the day prior. The style of training is crossfit. You never do the same workout. This way your body gets to use all it's muscles and challenges every time. I've actually seen results in my strength and endurance. I still have additional goals to achieve and I know I can get there with Twelve Training. I also like the atmosphere of the gym as well. It's not pretentious as some of the elite facilities. It's large enough to have a lot of variety of equipment as well not be so busy that you are stepping over other people. I never knew there were so many things you can do with a work out in addition to just weights! Great place to come if you are looking to get fit and stay fit!

CS&C is the place in Chicago to go if you want to get strong AF. The fact is, that Dave (the owner…read moreand head trainer) subscribes to the best philosophy when it comes to lifting weights: "If it is complicated- you're doing it wrong. Commit to your training, eat and sleep like it. And you will get stronger." CS&C is a Starting Strength gym, which means that the focus is on three main lifts: squat, deadlift, and press. Other lifts are utilized when they are useful (bench, power cleans, etc.) for increasing strength. Dave and Karl's focus is on getting athletes to do the lifts right, which ultimately protects against injury. In the run up to my latest powerlifting meet, Dave sorted out my deadlift and Karl helped me with my bench. This isn't a place where you're gonna get a soy machiato frappacino with skinny whip after doing a set of quarter squats in the Smith machine or bicep curls in the rack. Honestly, if you wanna be a menace to society, go do that somewhere else. This is a place where you're going to get strong. If you listen to the coaches and put in the work, your squat, deadlift, and press numbers will ALL go up. And you'll be harder to kill, which if we're honest, is all anyone really wants.

Review of Dave the coach: I met Dave when I was doing…read morecrossfit at another gym and he coached the Power track. I just happened to stumble into the class about 2ish years ago because I came at the wrong time. What I thought was a section of the crossfit class turned out to be a power lifting class. Since then I have fallen in love with the sport and have done multiple power lifting competitions. A big part of that was Dave. He explains things really well and is very knowledgeable. Even though the crossfit gym location was no longer convenient for me, I still kept coming and doing programs because of Dave. I am NOT the easiest of clients. I complain and make excuses all the time. Dave would calmly call me on my BS without being condescending. I was very excited for him when he opened his own facility at Chicago Strength and Conditioning. And even though this location is even MORE inconvenient for me, I still reach out to Dave for assistance. I utilized him for a great year long nutrition program. I signed up for 3 month program to help with a competition. Dave is my go to whenever I have questions or need advice about lifting. As a coach he's great and has help me improve significantly in all my lifts. He's worth every penny I have given. Review of the gym: I have only been to the gym a couple times since it's not near me and I do a lot of online programming. So I can't speak on membership pricing or local competitors. It may be small but it packs a punch. Each rack(I think there are 6 total) has it's own set of weights. And since the place is fairly new, the equipment is NICE! Recently, I showed up on a Saturday morning to get some in-person coaching. At first is was just me but by the time I was leaving, there was about 6 or 7 people there. It was intimate but I definitely didn't feel cramped. Everyone there was super nice and supportive of each other. There were people of all ages, strengths and sizes. All the coaches and athletes came up to me and introduced themselves. The few times I have been there, I really liked. If I didn't live so far away, I would totally attend this gym.
