TRX Boot Camp with Janet Jackson (yes, that's really her name) through It'sFitness at Olympia…read moreChiropractic is like a love-hate relationship. As much as I work out, I kinda hate it. I hate the inevitable grunting, I hate that I'm not in better shape, I hate getting all sweaty, and I kinda hate how fricken happy Janet sounds cheering us to get lower while planking or to lift our legs higher during tabata drills. As much as I complain, I keep going. I must love it deep down. I truly do. I love Janet as a coach because she's kind and will push you, but she won't push you harder than she knows you can handle. She's experienced enough to be able to show you how to modify movements or do different exercises if something, like an injury, prevents you from being able to do it properly. I also love that I can feel the workout immediately and the following days, and my weight didn't drop for a while but my clothes were fitting better and I felt stronger. Janet Jackson can help you achieve your goals and live a healthier life without making you feel like you're being badgered by a drill sergeant. In the end, despite all the sweat (coming from me) and the swearing (also coming from me), I love this workout!

It's the day after my TRX session with Janet Jackson (oh SNAP). The soreness in my legs reminds me…read morethat I need to write a review for this little lady and her not so little class. The size of the Monday night class is not big mind you, but the workout you'll receive is huge. I've been seeing Janet for over three months now. I was introduced to Janet and TRX at Patriot Boxing. Patriot and Janet have since broken up and like with most break ups...my loyalty stayed with the ladies...of Its Fitness that is! The workouts are just as challenging as they were before if not more so - which I never thought would be possible. We start our swearing...err work out outside. We warm up, we lunge, we jog, we sprint and we plank. We've also skipped and played tag. Sounds fun right? Well, it's not. It makes me want to skip all over someone's face! I might have some anger issues... After our school yard shenanigans, we head inside the confines of Olympia Chiropractic Center where all the TRX gear is set up. We grab our straps, crank up some tunes and pray for sweet death. We squat, we lunge, we plank. We do pushups, jump squats and mountain climbers. We work our biceps, our triceps, our shoulders and other muscles I never knew existed until I took this class. We cool down and then thank the heavens that we made it through another class. Now, I know I have a flair for the dramatic but this review is not a total over exaggeration. This class is intense and it WILL kick your booty. It sounds intimidating but you know what is not intimidating? Janet Jackson (Miss Jackson if ya nasty...that will never get old). She is a sweetheart but don't let that fool you. She knows how to push you to your limit. And the participants in the class are REAL people. We sweat (a lot), we bitch and we moan...together. United we stand, together we fall...in a big puddle of blood, sweat and tears. If you are looking for an affordable kick start into fitness, Its Fitness is for you.

This is a great workout, but customer service leaves much to be desired. I called this morning to…read morecancel my class because I am sick. Stuffy nose and coughing, which is transparent to the woman on the phone, and she leaves me with this.. we will give you credit just this once, but next time, you'll either be charged $12 or lose a class depending on your membership. Feel better! I don't have a membership, and this is why..there is no flexibility. I bought a 20-pack to use whenever; after I finish it, I will find a different place to work out. There are plenty of workout facilities in Elmhurst. Next time, I will come anyway and get everyone around me sick. When have we become robots with no care for patrons?

Great workout, staff, and coaches!…read more Plus you can park in the garage right above the gym! I like the activities they do to get members involved such as group marathons, Orange Theory workout bingo, competitions, etc. This seems like a fun location. I specifically like how the coaches here push you to try harder and they do a great job correcting your form.

My wife and I have been a member here for the past year and really enjoy it. It only took us a…read morecouple of months to cancel our membership at a big box gym and go with TFW Dupage. There is a great atmosphere of encouragement and support. You will make friends and enjoy coming to the gym but won't feel that cult like feeling you hear about at a cross fit gym. The facilities are kept very clean and Josh is always open to new equipment requests and making sure the members have what they need. Give TFW a try and you will definitely be back.

I became a member about 2 weeks ago, participating in 4 classes a week, and I must say, some of the…read moremost intense workouts I've had in a while. A combination of strength and metabolic workouts throughout the week, making each class unique, fun, and exciting, and with the desire to keep wanting me to come back for more! Our coach/trainer, Josh, motivates and pushes you to reach your full potential, no matter what level you're at (beginner, intermediate, advanced). I'd recommend this gym to anyone looking for a good atmosphere, friendly environment, and intense workouts. Come ready to work. It's worth every drop of sweat!

I regret to inform my fellow members at ohare crossfit that i am no longer a member there. i would…read moreimagine, that as a business owner who values their members that they would do the same. Unfortunately this is not the case at O'hare crossfit. I spoke with a coworker of Angelo's on Friday March 13 about some sexually inappropriate comments that Angelo Sisco had made during the course of the class hoping to nip it in the bud. Unfortunately, on Monday March 15 Angelo continued to make some more comments that I alone disapproved of and made me feel uncomfortable, bordering on the line of sexual harassment. I thought about his comments for the next day and decided to text him letting him know that I disapproved of his comments that were sexual in nature while I was working out in the same class as my dad and if he'd refrain from making such comments while I was working out with my dad. He said he would get back to me the following afternoon but never did. I went in to class today and was informed that my membership had been cancelled without any explanation. I considered Angelo a close friend for many years and never discredited him from helping me get to where I'm at today. If, as a business owner, let alone a friend, you cannot communicate with your clients or your friends in an open manner and immediately ban them from your business without hearing or listening to their concerns then you should not be in business. I have seen this person's true colors and how he operates in situations where he is in the wrong. I went in today with the best intentions hoping to put this behind us, as it was not as drastic or nearly dramatic as to what he made it out to be however, I feel that in order to protect my good character and forewarn any other client that may be offended or have any valid concerns to please proceed with caution. I never attacked his character, for he has none. I am disheartened that someone would go to such extremes but I do understand and people that do not conduct themselves in a professional and honorable manner in front of clients own family and friends is one that should not be trusted. It is important to own up to your actions, especially in moments when you are wrong. No one is perfect. I have seen a side of this person and am shocked to learn that he is the complete opposite what he practices and preaches. I have learned a valuable lesson and that is to always watch what comes out of my mouth, treat people with the utmost respect that I value and care about and own your mistakes. I hope no one ever has to experience the disgusting nature of this person like I did. Furthermore, I don't expect anyone to quit either. I just want to put out there my experience after having been a member for so many years and the abhorrent treatment I received.
