And the coaches are extremely professional, knowing to push the limits just enough and correcting everytime is needed. I feel great, my energy levels increased and my muscle mass as well. I have been working out by myself for 2 years before joining Anthos, with an online coach, but the gains I got from training with Anthos coaches are so much more valuable. In a session, múltiple coaches look at your posture, which is great, because they all SEE different things. It will be a game changer for your health and longevity.

I highly recommend!

I really like this location! I switched here from a previous gym, and I've been pretty happy I did…read more There are a ton of cardio machines from rows, to bikes, to treadmills. I've never had an issue of waiting for a treadmill like I have at other places, so I like that they have so many. I've never experienced any of the machines being broken either -- cardio or weightlifting. I like how many variations of each machine they have. For example, they have two variations of the leg extensions, two of leg curls, and about a million for bicep curls lol. The staff is pretty nice, and I've been satisfied with the conditions of the locker room/bathrooms. Parking is also free for the first 2 hours. Only down side is that it's too hot in here! No matter the time of the year, summer or winter, it's hot!

2/5 I've been a…read moremember of LA Fitness for nearly 20 years, and unfortunately, the Hyde Park location is one of the most disappointing I've experienced. The locker rooms are consistently dirty, there are often no paper towels or sanitizing wipes available, and much of the equipment feels old and poorly maintained. For a "Signature" club, this location falls far short--it feels more like a Bally's from 1995 than a modern fitness facility. Really hoping to see improvements, but as it stands, this will likely be my last year as a member. Do better. Either upgrade, discount or close this location.

I have been a member at this studio for over two years, lately there has been so many changes and…read moremostly negative by the owners. The studio has such a great front crew and coaches. The employees go above and beyond to help out and the coaches are the heart of the gym - without them this place will shut down soon. I am so pissed off that they let go so many good coaches, recently their Head Coach Hector who was a true asset and gave everything but yet the studio and him part ways. So many people taking about cancelling their memberships because they are already not happy about certain days not having coaches to hold classes. These owners just ignorant and dumb. - that's it !!!!

This is a good club and convenient if you live in the attached apartment of Regent's Park. It has…read morea decent variety of equipment, free weights, an aerobics room, and also offers some aerobics and water classes. They offer a 20 yard indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna as well. Most of it is accessible 24 hours. (The pool/hot tub, aerobics studio, and free weight room are closed overnight.) Trainers will work with you to develop a individual workout plan without extra charge. The gym is far better than most clubs you will find attached to an apartment building, and the locker rooms do include soap, shampoo, hair dryers, etc. The sauna is coed (this could be a plus or minus depending upon your point of view) but is kept nice and hot. If you don't live in Regent's Park, free parking is included with your membership, which would be a plus in the winter especially. All this being said, it's still pretty pricey for a fairly small sized club, with the cheapest option costing over $60 a month, or over $70 if you don't live in Regent's Park. I have just started going and will re-evaluate what I think of the club after more experience with it. I haven't seen him, but Obama supposedly used to work out here, although I don't know if he still does (and if he does, they probably shut the club down when he's using it now for security reasons.)

The playlist was fire; it had hiphop, throwbacks, afro beats, and more! We did cardio plus ab/core work. 10/10, would recommend. It's inclusive to all ages, sizes, and fitness levels. She did a reallyyy good job cueing us and explaining the sets. Loved the class!

I'm typically here every Monday through Thursday in the mornings because my fitness coach teaches…read moregroup fitness classes and also does personal training. The space is perfect for people who want to do personal training or teach their own classes. They have a parking lot behind the building for paid parking, street parking, and even access to the bank parking lot early in the morning before it opens. The facility has quiet bathrooms with showers and a lower level with additional training areas and fitness equipment. It's an ideal spot for someone who prefers supporting a locally owned business instead of major chains like Planet Fitness or Snap. This gym really offers a unique experience, especially being a Chicago-based business!

I had to cut out quite a bit of my review as it was to long to Yelp. Here are the highlights:…read more - Member etiquette and Cleanliness: I can't tell you how many times someone takes something I'm using when my stuff is sitting right there OR members use the benches as a personal locker for personal items while they aren't using it for a workout. This even happens when trainers are on the room and sometimes it's the trainers themselves! Trainers also eat warm meals in the gym so you have to smell their meal while you work out. Often barbells and plates are not put back at all, even with a trainer present, dumbbell shelf is a mess. Crumpled paper towel, piles of lifting chalk, empty bottles, remnants of the awful yoga mats litter the ground. No in person management present just trainers, I've never seen so many trainers in one gym before. The lack of in person management shows. Sometimes there's no TP in the bathroom for example in the winter the metal stairs will not be shoveled for snow or salted for ice. A couple of times I have slid on the ice. There's not even a bag around for members to do it themselves. -The Actual Space: is quite limited. The downstairs free weight area is rather small and if even 5 people are down there the place feels full and this is actually a recent improvement from the upstairs room. It's also spread out over 3 main rooms on two floors so there's a lot of walking to get to different equipment and for many you cant switch without going down a flight of stairs. The free weight area feels dungeon like with no windows and a low ceiling. There are windows in the bjj area you can kind of see from the doors but it's not the same. It feels like your lifting in a basement (and you are). It also smells like rubber to the point I've gotten headaches and has poor ventilation. It also amplifies sound so it's overwhelming with trainers, music etc going. The vibe feels more like your lifting in your friends home gym in his unfinished basement with equipment he got at a garage sale then working out in a professional facility. The space itself isn't well maintained either. The fire extinguisher upstairs has broken glass that's sharp and jagged just chilling for over a year now (was like that before I joined), plates and dumbbell's are left out, or put back incorrectly, piles of lifting chalk, drinks etc.. can be found on the floor. Members don't rerack anything (which is true for every gym in the Hyde park area). There's some cube drawers and a shoe rack but no locker room. So, you're carrying all your stuff with you throughout your workout since you can't lock anything up. There is a bathroom with a single shower and toilet in a separate room. -The Equipment: There is an overall lack of machines. There is almost a full set of leg machines but is missing calf. The only upper body machines are a chest press and assisted dip/pullup and cable machines. No machines or abs, arms, shoulders, other muscles like you would see in other gyms. There are 4 squat racks, 1 smith machine, 1 leg press, 1 set of dumbbells (5 pound increments) so minimal to the amount of people using them. No preacher curl rack, no deadlift racks. You'll use the 2 main squat racks for most of our workout and so does everyone else. The equipment is a mismatch of quality. 2 of the squat racks are really nice like you would expect in a professional gym. 2 are small and wobbly like you would expect in a home basement gym. The machines are a mismatch of brand and colors. It feels like all the equipment was purchased used at a garage sale. Not a big deal if it was maintained well but it's not. Not all machine plates are in pounds. There are not enough weight plates to go around. If someone's going heavy on the leg press good luck on a squat rack. Similarly, there are not enough barbells downstairs. There is one barbell that's broken and has been laying on the floor for months. If one person is deadlifting, there are not enough for the racks. They are also inconsistent some are rubber, some are iron, some have handles. Your stack will always look lopsided. Only 1 pair of 2.5 plates in the whole gym. The equipment isn't in great shape. Bent out of shape barbells, some adjustable benches are bent at certain holes making them dangerous. Clips don't work and plates slide off. -My biggest issue: large group fitness classes from about 5am to 9am most days as well as evening prime time after work (think). This means if you're a lone wolf free weightlifter like me who goes in the morning your competing with sometimes 10 to 15 other people in a group class. You won't get a squat rack, all the dumbbell's are taken etc.. It's loud and chaotic and you'll adjust your planned workout every day to take whatever is left over. -The gym cost is $75 a month, up to $40 more than chain gyms in the area which are as low as $10 - $35 and I just can't justify the cost for what you get.
