Fitness & Gyms in Buffalo Grove, IL

“Love this place for group workouts, it takes the guessing out of planning a workout routine especially if you're a beginner but is definitely for all skill levels! Everyone is friendly and welcoming, you get amazing support there and definitely helps you stay accountable and motivated. The owner/trainer (Chris) is outgoing, high energy and super helpful- he even helped me jumpstart my car once! Having the right trainer definitely makes a huge difference in helping you stick to your fitness goals and Chris definitely makes a difference with that. There are different membership options and pricing is competitive to all other group classes I came across the surrounding areas. 10/10 definitely recommend!!!”

“We recently moved to the area and heard great things about the facility. I primarily lap swim, so it was important to find a facility with good availability. While the commercial chains in the area look nicer and have better marketing, their rates were also 2-3x what Buffalo Grove Fitness Center charges.Highlights:- Facility is expansive and has an indoor track (1 lap = 1/12th of a mile), indoor lap pool (5 lanes total), and plenty of space for equipment and classes.- Staff at the front desk were friendly and helpful in giving me a tour.- Free 1-week free trial and they actually issued the membership photo card, even though it was for the free trial. If you decide to buy a membership, you can keep using the card.- The mobile app is pretty impressive for a public facility, and allows you to reserve lap swim times and other group classes covered under your membership. Also allows you to add your membership card to Apple Wallet making it easier to check-in.- Towel service included; showers have shampoo, conditioner, body wash.- Steam room in locker rooms; co-ed sauna out on the pool deck.While the monthly membership fee is a bit more than what I was paying at a previous swim-only facility, you do get the benefits of a full-service gym.Looking forward to supporting this local facility!”

“I joined Sky Fitness in February of 2023.A few friends encouraged me to join so we could play basketball.My whole life I have been overweight, and working out was not something I did for both mentally lazy reasons and also self conscious reasons.The self conscious stuff stemmed from feeling judged or shameful because I was not fit. At Sky, there is no judgement, unlike other gyms there are no alarms or an enforced “no judgement zone.” All the patrons are extremely friendly and the staff is as helpful and cordial as possible.You won’t find Gen Z losers taking photos of themselves in mirrors or recording their workouts in a pretentious attempt to find meaning in their vapid lives.Long story short, Sky care about their members and it shows.From the immaculate gym equipment, to the studios, to the cross fit gym, to the pool, Sky management cares about how their facility appears and more importantly: functions.The equipment is cleaned multiple times a day, I’ve witnessed it myself.The locker room facility, the jacuzzi, steamroom and sauna are top tier and sometimes if I’m too tired to workout I just use those facilities.I think the most important part is the value I feel I get. I live very close to MidTown and Lifetime but they’re cost prohibitive for me. Sky offers everything they do at a reasonable monthly rate and that’s the crux of my decision to be a member as well as why I continue to be a member.”
