I have been a member of Iron Flag for several months and I have learned to love coming to the gym…read more This is no small feat, since I am 61 years old, and I can honestly say I have never felt that before. I belonged to a different gym that closed late summer and I was looking for a place that would push me. I didn't even know what Crossfit was. But co-owner, Kelly, really impressed me with her intelligent questions about my health history, and Ioved how many women coaches there were at the gym, and felt the place had a great, down to earth vibe. I now attend weekday at 6:30 a.m. classes religiously and usually go to a class on the weekends. They will scale to your level and encourage you at the same time. I also thought I ate well (no flour, no sugar, and no alcohol), but I am working with co-owner Jared on my nutrition and upping my energy level and mental clarity. I appreciate the inspiration of those around me who can lift hundreds of lbs and do muscle ups, while I am working my training bar. Hey, it takes a village! My doctor is thrilled and I have gained several lbs of muscle in a few months! Check this place out. You will be glad you did!

New gym in downtown Downers Grove! Conveniently located near the Downers Grove Main Street train…read morestation and Egg Harbor. The gym features a variety of classes (including cardio, strength training, etc.). I tried the "Gonna Make You Sweat" class--it is a good mix of cardio, strength training, and core work. The gym has all new equipment (treadmills, stair climbers, rowers, free weights, racks, etc.). The gym utilizes the latest technology in personalized fitness through the use of heart monitors. Each gym user has the option of wearing a heart rate monitor and the data is displayed on the gym screen during the workout session. The software actively tracks your heart rate in comparison to your target heart rate. At the end of the workout, you receive an email with your workout stats (e.g., average minimum and maximum heart rate, heart zones during the workout, etc.). The data links into the MAR fitness app on your smartphone, so you can track your stats workout-to-workout. The gym amentities include single user bathrooms (shower included) and lockers with built-in combination key pads. Ample parking given the gym's close proximity to the Downers Grove Downtown Parking Garage and the train station parking lot (available during the evening hours and on the weekends). Great for commuters and for those who want a fresh take on fitness!

Semi-private classes (6 or less for strength classes), which provides for a private coaching feel without the price. The programming is excellent and well planned (and injury-friendly for us 40+ ers). True personal service and a boutique feel. Can't recommend them enough!

IE Fitness is simply the best gym around!…read more A little back story--I was the girl in High School who would intentionally forget her gym clothes because I hated "working out" or doing anything physical. Since High School I have joined gyms to "workout" would start going and then just stop--wasted money on personal trainers to just make excuse after excuse of why I can't continue to go. At IE Fitness it's more than a gym--it's a place of accountability and friendship. I actually look forward to working out! I highly recommend IE fitness for personal training and group workouts!

The refs call bad calls and once they are spoken to you get a talk to by the ref.

The Strength Revolution Gym, owned by brothers Paul and Dan D'Arco is a Personal Training and Open…read moreGym facility located in Shorewood, Illinois in the Jewel Osco shopping plaza. They and their team specifically program work-outs for their clients that are designed for their unique goals while focusing on injury prevention. The Strength Revolution does not host group classes. I used to love group classes, but the more and more I work with my Trainer, Paul, the more I discover how group classes were more of a hindrance than an asset. They are fine as an addition to your workout program, but I learned that you cannot focus your entire fitness plan on group classes alone. Many gyms that have group programs, and their workouts are centered towards the general population, so there's no real progression. Also, many of those facilities allow so many participants in their classes that the instructor would not be able to address individuals experiencing issues or challenges with any of the specific movements, or the workout as a whole. So many people with difficulties get lost in the process leaving a lot of room for injuries to occur. The Strength Revolution has worked with me from Day 1. My trainer took the time to learn my personal fitness goals and created an individual based program just for me. He works with me to monitor my progress while teaching me how to keep advancing as I continue to move forward or if my fitness goals change. Paul also is very knowledgeable on injury prevention. Having a history of shoulder problems and a hip impingement, he has taught me warmup exercises and stretches to help in my heavy movements like squats, deadlifts and presses be more effective and without any discomfort or pain. He passes this knowledge onto his team as well so they can take that information and use it to help their clients. The whole team at The Strength Revolution in Shorewood are absolutely amazing. They are extremely knowledgeable about fitness and fitness programming all while helping clients like me avoid injury during training. I highly recommend Strengthen Revolution for anyone looking to progress in their fitness training, whether you're a beginner or been working out for decades.

If I could eat cheesecake all day…read moreand do nothing and still fit into my clothes I would... however I've yet to figure out how to do that so here we are... this gym is amazing. Bridget and Chris are more than personal trainers. They have two of the biggest hearts in the world. They take the time to know you as a client and develops a strategic plan to help you meet your goals. When I met them I was a 24 year old who couldn't even run a mile... now I run half marathons! I never in a million years would have thought I'd like working out or going to the gym, but somehow I found a love for Pilates and running in my time at Commit. If you are even slightly motivated to change your fitness level I highly recommend checking out Commit. You will not regret it.
