I've been coming to this gym for almost 3 years now, and I've actually known the owner since his previous gym -- which says a lot about the kind of place he creates wherever he goes. From day one, everyone here has been incredibly welcoming, supportive, and genuinely kind. It never feels intimidating, no matter your fitness level. The community is what really makes this gym special -- people encourage each other and celebrate progress in a way that feels authentic. Beyond the physical benefits, this gym has helped me so much with stress and anxiety. It's become a place where I can reset mentally as much as physically, and that's something I'm really grateful for. If you're looking for a gym where you feel comfortable, supported, and actually want to show up, this is it. Highly recommend! read more

Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. I joined Anywhere Fitness for a 4-month personal training program and was told there would be a $55/month gym fee--which I thought was steep but manageable. What I wasn't told until after I tried to cancel was that the gym membership came with a separate 12-month commitment. I had understood from my initial talk with the owner that the gym membership would match the 4-month training contract. That misunderstanding aside, I might have stuck around if the environment had stayed supportive. At first, I saw some progress, so I hesitated to complain and wanted to give it a fair shot. But over time, things got worse. The trainer made me uncomfortable, especially on days I worked out solo. His "jokes" involved criticizing my movements, accusing me of "stealing" his workouts, and loudly discussing my back issues in front of others. After I cut our sessions from twice a week to once, his behavior escalated. Another trainer even told him I wasn't "paying him to harass me," which showed I wasn't imagining things. Adding to my frustration, the owner corrected my form during a solo workout--something my trainer never did after months of training me. It made me realize I wasn't getting the care I expected. I was very clear with the owner from the start that I needed a supportive, nonjudgmental environment due to a severe back condition and past bad gym experiences. Instead, I got paired with someone whose style didn't fit my needs at all. I ended up skipping my last month of paid sessions and felt too uncomfortable to keep using the gym. Despite all this, I was willing to pay cancellation fees just to move on. But after telling them that in writing, I was ghosted--no replies to three emails--until I finally got a voicemail from the owner apologizing and confirming I wouldn't be charged. That voicemail was the first professional thing I'd received, but it came way too late. Bottom line: If you want a supportive gym environment, this isn't it. read more

Supportive community with knowledgeable staff. Clean, well equipped for beginners and seasoned trainers.

It was really fun and the workers were very nice. I had one of the greatest workouts of my life. I had a really fun time jumping and lifting weights it was just a really good experience and I would 100% go again. read more

5 stars for my training with Ron here! He's very knowledgeable about strength training, correct form, and nutrition and for the first time in my life, I've seen real longstanding results! I've lost 25lbs and I'm in the best shape since having my two babies. I look and feel great! Thanks so much Ron!!! read more

Visiting Chicago for a few days and was on the search for a gym that would have a day pass. After visiting 2 other gyms inquiring about a day pass and the staff at both places not being very kind, I walked into Anywhere Fitness and was immediately welcomed in by one of the personal trainers and later the manager Michael made a point of introducing himself and made sure I was taken care of!! The atmosphere, all the equipment and more that you need and very clean!! Needless to say, if I lived here I would definitely get a membership! read more

5/5 stars. Convenient location for Edison Park residents. Great environment for adults and teenagers to get their workouts in. Always clean and staff always available to help with any issues. read more

Absolute great facility and staff. Everything you need to take your fitness seriously. The trainers actually take time to come up with meaningful workouts that challenge you in different ways each class. Michael is the absolute man and I will follow this guy into the fire for fitness. Great attitude, exceptional approach to fundamentals and fitness. A game change in my fitness journey for sure. Kamil, Tony, and Jeff are just as great. each offer another unique approach to fitness and calculated workouts to get you fit from head to toe. Highly recommend. read more

Still 5/5 stars easily. Love this place and everyone involved. Life changing. Updated to add some before (!!!) and after pictures of myself. Thanks again to Jeff for creating such a great environment. And special thanks as always to my trainer Max for continuing to push me to be my best! read more

I have been working with Jeff since he owned Tone Up and of course followed him to his new, modern and super clean gym called Anywhere Fitness in Park Ridge. I love that there is always parking making it super easy to get my "strong" on with Jeff. Not too shabby for 51 thanks to working with Jeff who challenges me at every workout. I've had trainers before and of course did numerous fitness classes but it wasn't until I started working out with Jeff that my body transformed to what it is today. I love all of the trainers, the gym is immaculate and the classes are high energy. The equipment is the best I have worked out with-super easy to use if I don't have my own session with Jeff which is why I also bought a membership so I can pop in on my own. Finally, the vibe and clientele are amazing. It's not pretentious in the least which is why I work out there. All levels of fitness belong to Anywhere Fitness. Jeff and his trainers meet people where they are at. If you want a chill workout environment that is brand new while getting more fit I encourage you to check it out. read more

Anywhere Fitness - Not bad for 51 this was back in June...hubby looks great as well. We have Jeff to thank. - Gyms Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Where do I begin? For a brief period in 2022, I had a membership here and really enjoyed my time. I moved to California for the summer before returning to Chicago last fall. Coming from the California sun into Chicago's gloomy winters was a problem. I wasn't in a good place mentally. So I renewed my membership at Anywhere. I'm naturally a lean guy, but after several months I'd gained more than 10 pounds of muscle mass. Jeff and Bryan (sorry Bryan if I butchered your name) have always been a great help, you can ask them anything. They've fostered an extremely positive environment at the gym. Max and Kamil also don't hesitate to teach new exercises or give good advice. Anywhere is by definition a community gym. Most people are locals in the area, but even those who aren't, they're part of the community at Anywhere Fitness. The positive vibrations have no end. I feel perfectly at home every time I go. This place has helped me move mountains and I'm sure I'm not alone in feeling this way. read more

I am 65, and Never exercised regularly up until I joined Anywhere Fitness last June 2022. I was significantly overweight and could not walk long distances. I resolved to change my life and my health, but had no idea how to begin. Fortunately, I joined Anywhere Fitness Gym. I have become quite a gym rat; I train 5x weekly, with weights, boxing, and cardio. My workouts clear my head and give me a mental boost; the daily ups & downs of life are easier to handle. For those wanting better health and a happier moroutlook, I Highly recommend visiting Anywhere Fitness to check out the many programs available, which can be easily customized to your schedule and goals. read more

As a non-gym person, I highly recommend this great little gym, as well as training with Sue. I signed up while my daughter was at Expert Driving School around the corner and was in the neighborhood weekly. SO glad I did! I had stopped working out during the pandemic (and have never done much beyond yoga), and Sue helped me build up confidence in working out. She is great at what she does, super nice, and non-intimidating for a newbie like me. I love that the gym is clean, small, and very comfortable, yet seems to have everything needed for beginners through experienced bodybuilders, including classes. read more

Jeff has opened a neighborhood gym that has something for everyone! The classes are great and fitness trainers are real down to earth people! The gym is CLEAN and spacious. There is an outdoor area as well. You can just workout on your own too. I took a 6am class with Carrie and it was amazing. She makes you laugh and keeps you working it! He works one on one with people who are looking for a total transformation. Check this place out if you want a local neighborhood gym with trainers who live in the area. read more

My husband and I flew in from Arizona staying with my parents in Park Ridge. We were looking for a gym that we could use/pay for for a daily fee. We contacted Anywhere Fitness. The owner answered our call and was more than happy to accommodate us for a few days while we were in town. The owner personally met us at the facility to get us checked in with paperwork (note: the daily fee was super reasonable) and we started our workout within minutes. The gym is exceptionally clean, organized, and laid out very well. The equipment is new, well kept, and has EVERYTHING one could ask for (even some of the small things that make a workout different). For example: squat racks with a platform, medicine balls, bands, TRX's, boxes, gymnastic rings, Bosu balls, a sled, and an outdoor area. The sky is the limit with exercises. The owner was very hospitable, genuine, and happy to accommodate. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable as well. It truly felt like home! We even had our son do a personal training session with Heather one day as he wants to lift and get better for sports. She was great with our 9 year old. She was engaging, patient, and put herself on his level with explaining body mechanics and form; she gave him a different perspective and information than we as parents can offer. This place is a gem! There are not many gyms in the Chicago area that are NOT large corporate gyms or cross fit gyms that have scheduled times for workouts or bombard you with phone calls/emails when you just want to get a few workouts in while you're on vacation. I hope Anywhere Fitness continues to excel, stays unique, and neighborhood friendly for those who all have a common goal of health and fitness. It was a breath of fresh air to know we now have a place to workout when we come visit my parents in Park Ridge. If we lived here full time we would definitely be members. We highly encourage one to stop by and check it out, it won't disappoint! read more

Jeff and the whole team were great in providing top notch workouts. I could see my 13 yr old get stronger and stronger every week. I would highly recommend for extra training for all type of sports. Kamil was also great in keeping the teenagers entertained and not making the workouts boring. read more

This place is great! The location is bright and full of workout equipment, which I now know how to use thanks to my personal trainer Brian Novotny. I have followed him from 2 other gyms and if you are looking for a trainer that actually understands how to get you results and makes working out uncomplicated and fun, go to Brian. The environment in the gym is really positive and you can tell that Jeff ( owner) makes sure everyone that comes in feels welcome. If you're close to the gym and you want a place to call home , go to Anywhere Fitness. read more

I was new to Edison Park and ready to upgrade my gym experience. I nailed it when I found Anywhere Fitness. Jeff and his staff are fantastic, offering a broad range of classes, boot camps, and training sessions. The space is perfectly setup for any kind of workout you're looking for. Equipment is in great shape and is incredibly well kept. Joining Anywhere Fitness has definitely leveled up my fitness game. Glad to be out of the big box gyms and onto something better! read more

Jeff's new facility is welcoming to all and he provides quality training structured around the individuals need, even if you are in a small group class. For those of us who aren't gym people (ME!), Jeff keeps the workouts fun and manageable, with enough challenge to feel and see progress. I'm always impressed the way Jeff includes stretching and other recovery modalities for a safe, balanced work out. Whether you are a long time gym goer or a a newbie hesitant to make that first step in the door, Anywhere Fitness has a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere that will leave you feeling great in no time. Welcome to the neighborhood! read more

I belonged to FFC pre-covid. I paused and then terminated my membership when we were spending more time at home but had the itch to get back to health and routine. I debated reinstating my membership there but learned this gym was opening so decided to sit tight and I'm glad I did. There are many things I like about this place but mostly appreciate that it's small, clean and efficient. I like the boutique feel. I train here three days a week and also have a door code (via an app) so I can pop in at other times to use the machines or stretch, if I wish. I think it's the perfect spot for people that want both structure and flexibility. The trainers are professional and skilled. The equipment is new and reliable. The atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable. If you're looking to get into shape or perhaps back into shape check it out before you join a chain... you'll be glad you did! read more

Anytime Fitness is an amazingly friendly small neighborhood gym facility that is perfect for people like me: not that fit lady in her 60's who wants to overcome her weaknesses. I like knowing that I have someone there who will answer my questions and who is going to hold me accountable. Every class and every trainer are different but always challenging and motivating to show up and work hard. Great place to meet people of all ages and abilities. read more

I love this gym! Jeff has created a great local spot that always felt comfortable, welcoming, and fun. I had personal training with TJ, who was excellent. It was my first time working with a personal trainer, and I was glad that the experience was awesome. The classes I attended were also challenging and fun. I personally attended the cardio kickboxing with Kamil, the boot camp on Friday with Max, a Saturday morning yoga class with a substitute teacher, and the Saturday boot camp with Kamil. The trainers at the gym are excellent and the other class participants made every class fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend this gym and the trainers here. read more

Jeff has always been very helpful when I am home for winter and summer break getting me hooked up with short term access. I would highly recommend this place to college students looking for a gym for break or anyone in the area looking for a good gym to join. read more

I joined the gym in January 22' It is always well-maintained and the staff is friendly. I usually go after 6pm, I get to use the space to train, jumping rope, pushing a weighted sled, and I like that. This isn't a massive gym and it exceeds my needs and I am very glad to belong. My son trains here 3x a week(for the last 6months) with a couple other teens in a group with a trainer(Max). He is very knowledgeable and a good fit for my son. read more
