I started training at Lift over a year ago, after my daughter recommended it. I typically work with the same trainers, but it varies occasionally, and all have been careful,... read more knowledgeable, and seem to know just how much to push me. I’m always relieved to be finished, and very glad to have done the workout. I’m not one who enjoys working out, but I feel like my time at Lift helps keep me healthy.

I have trained with the guys at Lift for a long time and consider my sessions to be some of my best long-term investments. My workouts there are sustainable, enjoyable... read more and challenging—and critical to my physical and mental health. Everyone at Lift is extremely smart, knowledgeable about kinesiology and exercise science, and strikes a good balance between pushing you hard and knowing when to dial it back to reinforce form and/or add accessory or rehab work. I trust them all implicitly and look forward to working with them for a long time to come! Edited 6/29/21 to add: the small group lifting classes are also amazing! They offer the same top-quality instruction in a more self-guided environment. Sam and Isaac, the trainers who run them, are wonderful.

Sarah H with WMNxLIFT is the best!!! I’ve been active my whole life and she is by far the best coach I’ve ever had. She’s attentive, extremely knowledgeable, and has... read more a great sense of humor. The gym is also very well equipped and has a cool vibe. I would 1000% recommend it to anyone!

The facility caters to individuals of all ages, and places in their fitness journey. This is not an intimidating gym filled with meatheads -- it's a welcoming, fun, place where everyone knows your name (literally).

The best gym in Chicago area. Highly recommended. The sessions are super efficient and you are always working out under supervision of best coaches in town. It is super clean... read more and they are taking all Covid related required measurements.

I have a very busy schedule, so my training sessions need to be very efficient, staying under an hour at all times. LIFT provides a highly “efficient” workout protocol—... read more time is maximized by increasing intensity to produce great results in half the time. Their 30-minute model uses shorter rest periods to tax the muscular and cardiovascular system simultaneously. By doing so, you are able to do more quality reps in 30 mins than someone would be able to do on their own in a full hour. And, when it comes to strength training, quality is always better than quantity, which they focus on.

The trainers are extremely helpful, creating programs tailored to each individuals need. They have created an atmosphere that is inviting and fun!

The women's LIFT class has been a highlight of my week for a few years now. Sarah is a fantastic trainer who puts together great workouts and provides helpful feedback.... read more I can't recommend these classes enough! If you are an experienced lifter, new to lifting, or anywhere in between, this class will be well worth your time.

I have been coming to LIFT since the day they opened and have been training with Josh for years now. Nothing compares to the workouts and knowledge you’ll get from... read more the trainers! I look forward to my sessions and it’s the best part of my day. Josh is always giving me challenging workouts and pushing me to my limits which I love! But he also knows how to train me safely which is super important because I’ve had back problems in the past. The facility is always super clean and the trainers create such a friendly and welcoming environment. Love LIFT and would HIGHLY recommend! :-)

Finished my first ten days of training here and truly impressed. The four trainers I alternated between were all very attentive and friendly. Paid attention to my goals and paced... read more me throughout while directing my form ( chief concern is not hurting myself). Loved that John especially has me trying new machines which keep me engaged and interested while working out ( I'm easily distracted). Excited to go back for another session. Their reputation is well deserved.

I've been training at LIFT since they opened and the trainers here are second to none. They are highly skilled, consummate professionals, and just all around nice guys. ... read more The trainers are always careful to take any existing injuries or deficits into account when designing my training program. Finally, I can honestly say that I owe my dramatically improved form when lifting weights to the crew at LIFT. I hear Pete's voice in my head whenever I lift on my own--which means I maintain good form and avoid injury even when I'm not working out with them. Pete, Josh, Chad, and the rest of the LIFT team set such a high bar, I honestly don't know what I'll do when I finally leave Chicago and have to find another personal trainer!
