Coach Isaac customized a program that focuses on the results I want to achieve before my wedding in this fall. He holds me accountable and does a great job of explaining the various techniques I'm doing - it's amazing how much I can now accomplish in 30-45 minutes with the right guidance.

The owners and coaches are incredibly knowledgeable and the gym itself is immaculate. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to reaching their fitness goals!

Highly recommended!

She... read more knows when to push you and challenge you, takes injuries into account, and is a genuine trainer who cares about you and your goals both in and out of the gym. Her WMNLift class is also awesome and a great paced workout with a fun group. She's also a total badass who practices what she preaches and does races and competitions herself.

					Amazing Gym!  All the instructors are incredible!  I'm hooked! Never a dull moment! Every single second is used!

Scheduling Training! One of the easiest and most transparent sign up... read more processes where you simply select your date, time, and trainer! And just as simply - you can change any time. So its super convenient and saves you time when scheduling sessions. Also, access to numerous different trainers with different styles and skills to learn from.  7 days a week, all times during the day! So will work for any schedule you have!  I also like how they have a variety of options for 30 minute, 45 minute and 60 minute workouts.

Equipment & Amenities! Best equipment and wide variety to keep you busy. I've done several on my own but nothing matches having a personal trainer take you through all the skills on using each.  Locker room is nice, clean, and everything you need. TV, music and everything else you need!

Honored to be a Member of the Lift community! Thanks for changing my life! :) - Erik

I came into LIFT after not working out consistently for months and honestly feeling intimidated about getting back into fitness, but John helped me rebuild my confidence from the ground up.

What really stands out is how knowledgeable he is. I recently hurt my calf while running and he immediately knew how to adjust workouts and work around the injury safely without making me feel like I was falling behind. His background in kinesiology and strength training really shows in the way he coaches.

LIFT is also a great place for beginners because they focus on teaching the basics the right way instead of making you feel overwhelmed. Everyone is welcoming and supportive, and it’s been one of the first gyms where I’ve actually felt comfortable walking in consistently. Highly recommend John and the team at LIFT Chicago.
