So I guess no one is cleaning the showers. I only use the handicap shower because it's the one that gets used the least but the other shower stalls are completely disgusting and smell really bad. I've also noticed a wet piece of toilet paper in the handicap stall that has been here since Wednesday, it's Friday morning let's see if it's still here on Monday. The staff says hi and bye in particular Derwin is very friendly so there's a reason to give blink fitness in Evanston one star and a second star because equipment is usually all in good working condition.

It's really unfortunate that a community facility like McGaw doesn't offer senior programs through…read moreSilver Sneakers. The senior discount offered by McGaw is so minimal that membership is unaffordable for many on a fixed income. I find it disheartening that McGaw offers a larger discount to employees of its corporate partner members than it does to its local seniors. Other YMCAs in the Chicago metro area offer membership through the Silver Sneakers program. Plus, most nearby community fitness centers, including Morton Grove and Skokie, accept Silver Sneakers membership. Many seniors, including me, would absolutely join McGaw if they accepted Silver Sneakers, which would bring McGaw additional revenue while truly serving its community.

I started working out here the summer of 2020 during a time fraught with uncertainty, and since then, I've been working out here since. It has what many commercial gyms lack... a community. This past year I moved away from the Rogers' Park to the suburbs so I haven't been able to come here as regularly as I'd like, but it's because of this gym as well as the community of RP that I am moving back in a couple weeks... that speaks to how special this place really is to me. I cannot stress the importance to bring awareness to small businesses. It's what makes Rogers' Park so unique to other neighborhoods in the city. Thank you Nestor and Lana for keeping this gym for us and the community. It truly is an amazing place and I will always support these guys!

I have been a member for many years and have seen a number of staff personnel changes that…read moredefinitely impact the quality of the Planet Fitness Evanston experience. Since Jaden has become the manager, the level of customer service has significantly deteriorated. The front desk in frequently not manned by staff. He projects the image that members are an annoying distraction from his laptop and I have personally witnessed him being rude and "judgmental" toward the members who have been loyal regulars. Not exactly the kind of "leadership" for a fitness center whose brand is a "Judgement Free Zone". Jaden's negative vibe is infecting the whole experience, simply undermining all that the franchise stands for. Other than this staff issue, the Planet is a great value for your workout dollar and while I have seen the cleaned and maintained better in the past, it is still a comfortable place for all to go to work out. It is just a shame that this location has joined the race to the bottom when it comes to the relationship it cultivates with its members.

Jordan, Lauren Craig and Daphne are awesome!! They spent all winter helping me with my cycling skills. They have about 20 bike trainers inside plus 3 treadmills, spin bikes and rowers. They also offer strength and agility classes. You can store your bike there during the winter months so you don't have to schlep your bike in your car on the days you want to ride. They work with training peaks so every ride you do is recorded with heart rate, calories, speed and distance. It really helps me analyze where I need to improve. They also have separate fun free events throughout the year. Girls movie night (ride while watching the chick flick of your choice) beer and bikes (ride while chugging a beer and eating snacks). These are just fun ways to break up indoor cycling rides. The fees are reasonable for unlimited rides. They also offer triathlon performance packages so you can incorporate swim bike and run with them. If you're interested in taking your training to the next level try precision multi sport.

Personalized attention, and a variety of options. Adult and youth programs. Indoor and weather permitting outdoor training too! This is great for triathletes of all levels; from the hesitant not sure I want to even try to the Kona qualifying elites. Yet NOT INTIMIDATING! I was amazed, as I have experienced this before. Runners, swimmers, even the every day "non athlete" person just trying to be fit can find something here. I first came to know Precision Multisport through a winter triathlon training program I was a part of that utilized the facility for their Computrainer studio. Craig and JP have helped me train for multiple events, as well as aid me with my return to sport training after a hiatus due to injury. The studio has moved since I started trading there, and expanded. They now offer more training options, class times, etc. BASE Fitness, TRX, other training classes, a wide range of Computrainer classes, and individual trainers...all highly recommended. I truly have learned so much during my training here. The coaches are attentive, knowledgeable, and put up with me! I am not high maintenance, just hard on myself. When I go to Precision Multisport...I do not feel like I have to BE the best, I just am encouraged to TRY my best; and everyone has off days, and are well supported here. The experience, and the way the coaches are with clients, is HUGE! I don't feel like I am a part of a cookie cutter workout. Thank you PM! They often have special events and other fun things. They also put on a few of the best races in Chicagoland! I travel in from the city even to train!

This review is about my trainer Stephanie Mangrich of D21 Fitness. This is my first experience with…read morea trainer. I had previously been working out (rather intermittently) at the park district gym near my home. But needing guidance I sought out D21 fitness center because it was referred to me by a college friend who has been going there for years. Stephanie has been my trainer for a year and she is awesome!!! She walks the walk. Her degree is in Athletic training so she is extremely knowledgeable about fitness health. She is a runner (everyday she runs with a group rain or shine, cold or wet), but she is not a snob about it, nor is she judgemental. She meets you where you are, sets mutual goals for you, and helps you implement them. She keeps meticulous record of your workouts, and changes it up regularly to keep it interesting. You have the feeling that you are her only client! After an injury forced me to see a physical therapist she offered to confer with the therapist on how my exercises could be modified to prevent further injury. Before my vacation in February she emailed me a complete workout (with YouTube tutorials on how to do it right) so that I could continue my workouts in the resort's gym in the week that I wouldn't be there. Before giving you an exercise to do, Stephanie always explains its purpose, and she always demonstrates first (even if you've done it before) showing you both the right way AND the wrong way to do it. Because I only meet with her once a week, I would mimic what I did with her at home in another day of the week. And while I don't have a lot of the equipment at home, she showed me ways to compensate for that. She also let's me pick the workout music I like (I have a fondness for the 80s!) Stephanie makes working out fun! She laughs, and cajoles, but she is about the business of the workouts. She is very professional. She watches my moves, corrects when I'm doing something incorrectly, high fives me when I'm nailing it, and redirects. If I tell her I was sore the next day, she'll message me the day after that to see how I'm doing. If one day I'm not feeling especially talkative when I'm there, she picks up on that and our workouts are largely silent (except for counting my reps, and, yes, Cyndi Lauper in the background). My core is a lot stronger today, than when I first met Stephanie. I would recommend her to anyone who is interested in improving their fitness health. About D21. The gym is small, but has everything you could possibly need for a thorough and great workout. The sessions are private, though there might be the rare occasion where another client might be finishing up a session. Still it's enough room. There is a washroom, but unfortunately not a shower. There are also clean towels and filtered water so no need to bring. Great location too (right up the street from the Lucky Platter for a great post workout breakfast) and a Starbucks (with outside seating in warmer months)!!! Also plenty of street parking AND an adjacent parking lot. This gym seems to serve every age, and every body type from what I have observed. And the owner is pretty awesome too! The trainers all seem very happy. That must be a reflection on him.
