    They had a special today for Thanksgiving, where you could come and try a class out…read more This is why I like trying classes out because a lot of gyms might look shiny but when you dig under the surface, they are dull as anything and I need a stimulating environment that's welcoming and not snarky the class that I tried out (albeit under a different name) was basically something else I've taken quite often and the format was not followed correctly, and I got a very snarky attitude from a lot of people that worked there Also for the the price you pay compared to other gyms, you get basically no amenities there's no pool They told me we have a membership with COD so you can drive over there and pay extra on top of what you're already paying here now why would I want a membership at two places when I could just join one gym that has everything I need under one roof where I'm actually Comfortable?!? there's no massage chairs No sauna no steak room no hot tub I can go elsewhere for a couple bucks more, and have a lot more choice of classes as well They were also asking if I belonged anywhere else and when I said yes, they got extremely snarky and said "that's our competition". I'm thinking in my head there is no competition. You have nothing to offer here. It's not even a question. Happy to return to my home gym tomorrow, where there is everything I want and more It was nice to try a class out, but I would never come back here not to mention The class was probably 80 something degrees with no fans going inside the room.

    If you're reading this, you're probably frustrated with your current routine or trainer and looking…read morefor something new, exciting but most importantly, EFFECTIVE. 7 weeks ago, I was in the same place. After 11 months of pushing myself with the help of numerous trainers and advice, I gave Brian a try. Most of the trainers I had worked with were terrific in the weight room but knew "just enough" about nutrition. Brian is an expert in both. After months of being stuck in the same place, Brian took me to the next level. I lost 16lbs and 3% Body Fat during those 7 weeks. Was it easy?? HECK NO, but every day was a challenge and Brian was right there with me to keep me on track. Thank you, Brian, let's keep going!

    I have worked out my entire life and tried at various times different trainers (privately, local…read moregyms, equinox etc.) None have worked out or I felt like gave me an edge up in my overall fitness pushing me to another level. Brian has hands-down given me that edge and provided me with a foundation for longevity, mobility, strength and conditioning. I came to him after my wife gave birth (I had gained 15-20 pounds when my wife was pregnant). I not only was out of shape, but also experiencing various pain in my hips and legs from my workouts (lack of stability strength on top of lots of running). I lost 25-30 pounds with Brian, but not only that - I now am in a much better position with my flexibility, strength and conditioning for extending my long-term health and fitness. This comes from a focus not only on workouts, but also on nutrition. Brian helps to shape workouts to your preference and helps to focus in on what is working and what is not with your eating habits. Losing weight becomes very easy - frankly, I now work to keep weight on! Finally, Brian is very knowledgeable and overall a great guy. He is easy to work with and accommodating to clients - especially those with demanding jobs (e.g. law, finance, etc.) Would highly recommend Brian!!

    ForwardFit is not your typical gym. It's a warehouse style, no-frills type spot that offer various…read morefitness classes from Metabolic Circuit Training, Boxing, Tabata, TRX, OCR training and yoga. I only dropped in for 1 class, as I don't live in the area (out of state), but if I did, I would definitely join. There seems to be a nice variety of classes offered and I can imagine they are all quite challenging and offer a great total body workout. I tried the Metabolic Circuit class and it definitely kicked my butt. The class focused on a combination of several exercises, each done for 30-seconds with a 20-second recovery in between where you move on to the next exercise in the rotation. Some of the exercises included in the class I took were skull crushers, burpees & pull-ups, weighted squat, bus drivers, TRX push-up to plank, kettlebell snatches, and a shuffle with ball slam. All of which were killer and worked out my entire body. The class began with a short warm-up, followed by 3 complete rounds of each exercise in the circuit. We finished out the class with a 5-minute challenge which included kettlebell swings, air squats, push-ups, bent over rows and sit-ups. AMRAP within 5 minutes. And of course some post-class stretching. Bill is the main trainer. He is very friendly and has great energy. Bill added some humor here & there throughout the class here to keep everyone smiling. He consistently checked in on me during the workout to make sure I was using proper technique for each exercise and helped make adjustments to my form as needed. There were two other trainers on-site as well during the workout encouraging participants and helping with form adjustments to keep everyone safe. Side note: they also offer post-workout nutrition (bars and fresh smoothies), and massage as well. **Didn't snap any pictures as I was pressed for time, and also too busy getting my butt kicked. But Bill snapped some pics and made them into a collage he posted on his Instagram, so I will save and share that one.**

    ForwardFit is more than a gym - it's a community of people who love a good sweat session and…read moreencourage one another. Short and sweet classes (1 hour each) are led by trainers that keeps you moving and burning some serious calories. The Metabolic Circuit class totally kicked my butt the first time I went. The class is set up so you do 30-seconds of an exercise, 20-second recovery through 10 exercises. That's one round. Bill, the owner and one of the trainers, will push you through 3 rounds and then a finisher, which is sure to wear you out. (Battle rope for 3 minutes, anyone?) The boxing classes are SO GOOD. I should note that these classes are boxing fitness classes - this is not a boxing class were you'll end up fighting someone. Most work is done on punching bags, but there's also plenty of other exercises mixed in. Boxing has been my favorite class so far because it's something I had never tried. Discovering it has been a fun experience that doesn't end up feeling like dragging myself to a gym for a class. I can't say too much about the yoga classes because I've only been to one, but it was alright. I'm much more interested in the circuit and boxing classes. The thing that really makes this gym special is the people. Since it's class based, you see the same people almost every time you go. They are a welcoming group and very encouraging. I was blown away that the group cheered me on as I finished my finisher in my first circuit class. Bill has made an awesome gym and an even better atmosphere and community to be a part of.

Especially one lady with short hair who is always chatting with younger staff and barely looks up to check people in. other's area lifetimes greet you warmly when you enter but most of the desk staff is preoccupied here. Gym desperately needs cleaning- cleaning is done by internal staff. Mats are dirty and never see anyone wiping down weights or mats / although they have spray and towels for guests to use. Restrooms are dirty and need a deep clean and improvements -( behind the stall doors- need to be cleaned)! This location is 20+ years old and lots of newer clubs going in and send this one is being neglected. Speakers in the main group fitness room only work on one side and cut out in the middle of routines. Classes were great but they keep changing formats and if there are less than 12-15 in a class they cut the class. For the price being paid they should hold class even if 5 people sign up. So many trainers around for a fee but classes seem to be getting limited compared to the newer gyms. Still going due to location but it needs some love!

    I'm not sure where to even start. I really enjoyed going to Club Pilates in Glen Ellyn. I had been…read moregoing there for about three months when I had to have emergency surgery. I know how rigid they are with everything so as soon as I was out of the hospital, I called and filled out a medical pause on my account and I could not come back until I had doctor clearance. Not only did I lose the three credits that I had already paid for for the month of my surgery, but my card kept getting charged even after filling out and returning the medical pause. I had to keep calling, emailing, leaving messages at the location. All while recovering from surgery. I was told the manager was not there, the manager was on vacation, someone would call me that afternoon. Well, I did take days for someone finally to call me and refund the charges. Well, then low and behold, a few months go by and they charged my card again. Again I had to make phone calls, emails, I even emailed Club Pilates corporate, I ended up canceling my membership and arguing back-and-forth that I was still not released from my doctor, they "allowed" me to be released from my contract, but still kept one month of dues as a cancellation fee. I would never step foot in a Club Pilates again for their horrible customer service their lack of understanding when people are sick or in my case, laid up from an emergency surgery. The instructors were wonderful, but that's really where it ended. I have heard people have better experiences at other locations. So maybe it's just this particular location in Glen Ellyn, that has completely horrific customer service and lack of understanding. I just was flabbergasted at my treatment. Especially because one day I got all the way to class and the class canceled for whatever reason, did I get an extra class credit to my account for my inconvenience? No, they don't practice what they preach, but I was understanding. Also, there's never anybody answering the phones, if you have an emergency or you're running late or you have a question- forget it the front desk staff maybe answers one in 10 phone calls if you're lucky. I would try a different location if you wanted to check out a Club Pilates. My rating of two stars is only because of the instructors. It would've gotten the minimum otherwise

This is the first of a few locations opening in the area and is run by the ladies who owned Raw 45 Bootcamp in Wheaton. Among all of the gyms I have been a member of, these ladies are at the top of their game, they're top notch professional...and both great trainers as well as business managers/owners. I have found both qualities to be rare in the fitness industry... it's usually one or the other. Elise & Amy are both. If you browse my page and my yelp list of gyms, I've been to MANY. So for starters, you will NOT get bored at a place like this! There are a number of different circuits (the website indicates 27) and forever changing exercises within each circuit so no workout will ever be the same. The concept is outstanding and no other place is like it. All workouts are 45 minutes so you're in & out of there in no time and you get a hell of a workout in during those 45 minutes. Time goes by very quickly! The Hollywood workout I participated in for my first class on Saturday was an hour with a live DJ providing the music keeping us going the entire time. There are classes in the morning & at night and classes 7 days a week. Try this place out!!! It's for all levels and the trainers are there to not only motivate you, but to also make sure your form is correct and can assist in modifying anything necessary. Move over Orange Theory Fitness....F45 is where it's at!!!!
