Fitness & Gyms near Oakbrook Terrace, IL

“I've been consistent for about 6 months and noticed improvements to my strength as well as my self-confidence. Welcoming group with a variety of athletic ability and age. Whether you're beginner in your 40's, a college aged MMA fighter or 5 year old looking for boxing class; there's something for everyone!”

“One of the best gyms for the price in this area. It's nicely hidden as well so it's like having your own private gym. Two weight rooms and a cardio room with plenty of great equipment for every need.”

“This gym was my personal intro to CrossFit. I had been out of a fitness routine for many years since having two kiddos. They made it accessible, low key and fun to get started. It’s inspiring to see folks of all ages and fitness levels supporting one another and pushing their bodies to build towards personal goals. I am almost two months in and so happy with my progress. I recommend this gym to anyone but especially those with a positive attitude who want a very nice community to get stronger with! ????”

“Honestly it’s the best gym with the most amazing trainers, staff, and athletes I have ever met!!! Iron flag is my new family and my favorite gym of all time! I’ve been growing as a crossfit athlete and it’s been amazing! I can’t wait to see where I’ll be next year :)”

“All the trainers at Just Lift are beyond amazing! Everyone is well trained and knowledgeable. You call tell they care about each individual member’s performance and success.”

“I've been a member of CrossFit Salire for about 2 years now, and it’s been a game-changer. The coaches are knowledgeable, motivating, and truly care about each member's progress. The community is incredibly supportive, making every workout fun and challenging. The facility is top-notch, always clean, and well-equipped/maintained. Since joining, I've seen significant improvements in my fitness and overall well-being. If you’re looking for a place that will push you to be your best while feeling like part of a family, CrossFit Salire is the place to be!”

“so so so happy i joined! everyone is so welcoming. the coaches give great tips and tricks. the price matches the quality of the workout and the burn you feel, making you feel accountable and motivated. music is also a big 10/10.”

“What a great place to work out! I look forward to attending classes at this gym. And I’ve never felt that about a gym after a few months! It’s the class size, almost personalized coaching, the option to use the gym by yourself, all of which make it worth the membership here.”

“Awesome gym, great trainers and equipment! I stop in whenever I’m in town and proudly wear their amazing shirts. If you’re in the area and need some fitness expertise these guys are great.”

“I have recently joined this incredible gym and have experienced the most welcoming and encouraging first week. It took me a few years (since COVID started) to get back into any gym consistently, and I so happy that I chose SPENGA in Bloomingdale. Special thanks to Carrie, Kari and Monica for kindly easing me back into elevating my health. YAY !!!”

“This is a family owned and operated gym, which helps to create a very unique vibe. There is a very connected, neighborhoody feel about this gym. This atmosphere, which has been cultivated by owners, staff, and area patrons, is difficult to replicate in a big-box, chain gym. Aside from the overall vibe, I like that the people at Elite are upfront with regard to their pricing. There are no guessing games. Their rates are listed on their Web site. They also offer a ten punch card so you can try out the gym before you make a commitment. Those who workout at Elite seem to be connected members of the local community. I find that the clientele is friendly, respectful, and fitness-focused. Lastly, the gym is located in a very cute area of Western Springs. There are several local businesses nearby that you can visit before or after a workout. It's also important to note that parking has never been an issue for me at Elite.”

“After just five training sessions at the CrossFit gym, I’m feeling incredibly grateful, supported, and stronger than ever. From the moment I walked in, the sense of community and encouragement was overwhelming. I’ve never felt so welcomed and truly part of something. It’s amazing how much the right environment can make such a difference in both physical and mental strength. Thank you to everyone who’s been a part of this journey already—I’m excited for what’s to come! ???”

“I stumbled upon this gym about 2 years ago. I've been an AF since 2013 but prior to coming to Roselle the rut I had gotten myself into had become more of a lifestyle. I quickly felt at home thanks to the positive energy of Jackie, Amanda and the whole morning crew. I've been to Anytimes all over the country and this gym and its staff are top notch! It makes me sad to say goodbye but im grateful for every second I spent here amongst this fabulous group ?”

“Excellent, 24-hour, old-school iron gym. A day pass is $17. They have a little bit of everything from fat-grip dumbbells to belt squat. There are two separate buildings a half block apart. One for upper body and one for lower body.”

“I was with OTF back in 2021 for 6 months and came back in July 2023 and still go today. Every type of person comes here and I love it. Old, young, different body types, fitness levels - it's a great community!
The studio is immaculate and always clean. Not only do they have you wipe down a machine/station when you're done with it, but they will also clean after morning/evening sessions. The front desk staff is always friendly and willing to help answer any questions you may have. There are lockers on-site with locks so you can lock your items away while you're in class. Along with showers as well if you need it after class. The classes are never fully booked with a wait list (I've had yet to see that happen unless it's a specialty class).
It may be a little pricey, but it's well worth it! Look at it as you're paying for personal training within a group setting. I've mainly trained with Coaches Stacy and Tony, and they're amazing! Tell them your goals and what you're looking to accomplish. I also love that they aren't drill sergeants. They can see where your heart rate is at throughout the class on a screen and they're not going to push you to do something you can't (I can't always keep up and that's okay!). They offer modification options if you can't do something. The classes change every day, so it's never the same. The music is always on point and I truly love coming to this OTF to get my workout in and see some great people!”

“I switched from a local gym to ENRG Fitness about a year ago and have never looked back. The staff is knowledgeable and also encouraging in a very genuine way.
The classes are different everyday - so it's unlikely you'll ever get burned out/bored. Give ENRG a try! You won't regret it and your body will thank you!”

“I am considering joining Jordan's gym as he was one of the best guides in helping me to learn weight training several years ago. The place is clean, spacious and friendly, and I can't wait to try their free week. I'll post more later! ?”

“How does it start?With an email or a phone call.How does it end?Don’t know. Still going here six months later.Ian and Emily are AMAZING people. That’s easy enough to say, but let me back it up.I took the leap and sent an email to them that I had never really lifted weights. I mostly did cardio exercises. Ian responded promptly and set up a phone call to discuss what goes on at their gym. The first personal training session was free so I tried it.You know that thing that you eat that you can’t put down once you try some. That’s what this was like except way more expensive. It makes you stop and think, but ultimately the question you have to ask yourself is what would you pay to be HEALTHY and HAPPY each week?Ian works with you to create a workout plan that FITS WHAT YOU WANT including workouts for days when you’re at home or your regular gym. He’s there to give you ADVICE on nutrition and eating/drinking right for your goals. It’s up to you on what you decide to do and he doesn’t care whether you take his advice or not. He’s the same regardless. Scheduling is flexible and is done personally via texts. That’s right, you have contact with Ian even when you’re not working out with him and you have normal conversations. HE'S INVESTING HIS TIME IN MAKING YOU A BETTER PERSON.From a workout perspective, there are a variety of workouts that you end up doing and they will repeat. You’re there to get progressive gains over time and the only way to do that is to repeat the workouts on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. When you hit a plateau, he’ll change it up and you’ll do different workouts for a little while. At the end of each session is a random 5 minute variety of exercises that are more intense than the rest of the workout. “The Finisher” as Ian calls them. That said, I’ve never left a workout overly sore to the point where I can’t function the next day. As you do more and more workouts and they repeat, you might ask yourself “Why do I still need to come here?” “Couldn’t I do this myself now?”IT'S NOT JUST A WORKOUT. It’s life, and that’s one of the best parts is the conversations with Ian about anything and everything. Ian has been one of the most influential people in my life. This comes from discussions about future life goals, careers, philosophical questions, book recommendations, etc. The monumental change he’s made in my life from a mental perspective is something he probably doesn’t realize and something I don't know that I can ever overstate. I don’t know that everyone can expect that, but I do know that you can expect the workout you have at i.e. Fitness to be one of the highlights of your week. As I mentioned before he’s invested his time in making you a better person and he will push you to be better. He will give you that motivation to try harder when you don’t want to or think that you can’t do something. He will push you to your limits, but not push you over them.I know what you're thinking. What about Emily? While I've never worked out with her, I've been lucky enough to be at the gym when she's working out with someone or just stopping by the gym. She's a nice person who brings an energetic atmosphere to the gym with a bubbly personality albeit terrible taste in music :). It is thanks to her I have never been more nervous to lose to a six year old kid and I'm pretty sure she's the reason Ian is so great.If you've gotten this far, my RECOMMENDATION to you is to TAKE THAT FIRST FREE SESSION and then decide for yourself what you think is the best thing for you in your life.Have an amazing day!”

“The high energy HITT team workouts are amazing! The synergy that Coach Tyler and Coach Lalo facilitate is intangible. Clean, professional, team oriented environment. Try for yourself, best of Glen Ellyn!Cheers to many more!”

“I've been a member at this location for almost 5 year now and I can not begin to say how grateful I am for this community. From the amazing staff to the challenging workouts, I look forward to coming each week and showing up for not only myself but for others. The community of people who come here are inspiring, encouraging and make me want to be better. If you have been wondering whether this type of workout is for you, IT IS! You can taylor each workout to your fitness level and feel comfortable that you will be supported by people who want to see you succeed.”

“Couldn’t praise this gym higher - has all tools to keep working out fun. Great team , the owner really cares about the place always very clean.10/10 recommend ??”

“Love the 35 min workout! I previously gave up on HIIT workouts due to injuries but Nick and Chris do a great job of showing proper form and coaching, also very motivating. I highly recommend this gym!”

“I have been coming to this gym for a little over a year and let me say - it is filled with great members - and great management! Jeremy is the BEST! On top of being very attentive, professional, and friendly - I walked out to a flat tire in the parking lot a week ago and Jeremy not only helped out a lot, he literally rolled around on the ground and got his hands dirty helping me change it. Needless to say, people like Jeremy are rare - and employees like Jeremy are even harder to find! A great fella - he is a great representative of the gym, and the people that exercise and work there! Highly recommend! Couldn't be any better.”

“Emily the instructor is hands down the best instructor! Keeps you pushing you to go past your limit!! First time ever and had the best experience! Def recommend for everyone esp if you’re trying to get healthy and fit!”

“This is a great OT studio with amazing coaches. The treadmills are soft compared to other places. They have windows on two sides so the natural light is very good. Great studio with a great fun atmosphere! I have been to over 900 classes and they just keep getting better!”

“Love everything about this gym, I get to train when ever I want and it has everything you need. I treat it like home. Every one there is super friendly and motivating. ?”

“I’ve been coming here for about 6 months and best decision ever. Coaches and other members are supportive and the classes are always different , introducing new workouts to the body and mind. My body is toner and my energy levels are high.”

“The best powerlifting gym in the area. All the best equipment for powerlifting, strongman, olympic lifting. The owner is awesome and has built a community that's inviting for lifters at any level. Not only that, the people at the gym are friendly and helpful. Can't recommend it enough to anyone in the area or for visitors.”

“Great monthly deal at this hidden gym! 2 pools, racket ball, basketball, weights and more. They work with health insurance and senior programs, too. There's also a party room with a full bar.”

“I was introduced by my cycling compound and eager to visit. Currently, I am doing virtual training and interactions. Eric is very attentive and knowledgeable on topics and very client friendly. He keeps clients / participants engaged with his tough love / comical antics. I ve worked out online with both Eric & TPThis training is definitely not for the weak but very much for the committed. As a medical professional and health enthusiast for many years, I am very cautious about whom I give my attention or even take guidance. I honestly often critique one's knowledge before engaging. So far, Eric has been spot on. Drop in for a session or follow / join virtually. The team definitely does not disappoint. Very motivational group.”
