My favorite place to train in Chicago when home from college. Great people, staff and equipment. B&W Gym has it all.

Best gym in Chicago. I train Olympic weightlifting and this gym has everything I need. I love the old school atmosphere and the people at the gym are so friendly! No other gym can beat the price of this gym too.
