I’ve been training with Mike for over a year now. He’s been a great powerlifting coach and gives helpful feedback. He’s helped me make massive gains on all my lifts. The Bar team continues to produce an amazing environment for all lifters. They treat you like family and the support from everyone is immaculate.

Best gym for building your knowledge and technique for strength training in the Chicago suburbs. Coach Lorraine walked me through my first session! The staff is incredibly welcoming and the facility is clean and updated with some top-level weightlifting and powerlifting equipment. I highly recommend checking out this gym.

The Bar is absolutely the greatest gym there is! I've been training with Kalvin since May. He is incredibly knowledgeable and encouraging during every session. Any question I may have, he always has the answer. All the coaches here are awesome. 10 out of 10 would recommend!
The Bar is a veteran owned and operated strength training facility that utilizes conventional and unconventional methods to push your limits. As the Premiere Powerlifting and Strongman gym in the Midwest, The Bar has every tool for the strength athlete. We are a community first gym. We like our music loud. We like our weights heavy. We are not like any other gym you've been to before...
WE ARE THE BAR.
