Plus I wanted an option in case I had to fight a case of insomnia and couldn't go to sleep, and I need it to work out in the middle of the night. This anytime fitness is located near the Village Crossing Mall, off to the side on Central Avenue, away from the other stores. The person who registered me was super nice and friendly and gave me a tour of the place. The size of the gym is somewhat small, I would compare to a couple steps up from a hotel gym but slightly bigger. In terms of the equipment, it has several cardio machines, and a few squat racks, which doubles as a bench press if you set the height and bench properly. There's also some free weights, and free benches as well. What I look for at a gym is a place to do squats, deadlifts, bench press, and overhead press. Everything else is a bonus. They do have several machines, but nothing too serious for a good leg workout. But overall it gets the job done. There is no locker room per se, but there is three private bathrooms, which includes a sink, shower, and toilet. Overall, I would go here and recommend, if you're looking for a place that is 24 hours, but not as busy like an Xsport, with average equipment.

Athletes, this is an ideal place for you. If you're looking for a wide variety of selectorized units and other shiny objects you might be a little disappointed. Now if looking to build a body thats both fit and strong Evolution most certainly deserves a look. Personally this place has incredible potential if they ever decided to expand to a more "traditional" gym. But then again that's what makes this place special.

I am still working with Leo a year and a half later and he is still the best. I look forward to…read moreevery session and class. I am so proud and happy with how strong and fit I am becoming. I am eating the best I ever have in my life and I feel so good. Leo as been a huge part of all the positive changes in my life. Best decision I ever made was to start this journey with him. Leo is absolutely the best! After 3 months of working with him I feel healthier and stronger than I have in years. He makes our sessions fun while always pushing me to the next level. It also helps that he is genuinely a nice guy and takes the time to build a relationship with his clients. Leo has an all around approach and has helped me not only in the gym but also outside to improve my eating habits. This is important to me because it shows that he cares about his clients becoming healthier people. I would highly recommend Leo to all my friends, family and the Yelp community.

Leo has pushed me to reach goals I never thought my body could reach and feel at my utmost best. His sessions encompass cross training and heavy lifting. Something never in my life that I would imagine even doing. He designates personal plans for each of his clients and has helped me meet realistic goals so that I can continue seeing results way past his sessions. He helps you stay accountable and to push through and stay on track. In these pictures I was 165 a year after my 3rd pregnancy. The middle picture I dropped down to 143 in a time span of 11 months. And in the last picture I took today after the holiday bonanza of meals I have been able to continue to see more result and am 138lbs as of now. Steady consistent progress. No secret potions, crash diets or wraps that have claimed to burn my fat away. Just clean eating and consistent hard work put in. Leo is an amazing person and trainer he loves what does and it shows in the dedication he invests into his clients. Because when you invest into your passions you never lose you only gain more. I am a life client I have invested in him what he has invested in me.

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.
