Trainers near Crystal Lake

“I recommend this place to everyone I know but realized I never have done a Google review. This is an amazing practice that focuses on 1:1 care. Thank you to Dana, Jen and Denise for so much support and care over the years!“

“Great school with great instructors. I have learned much and it's always a great workout.“

“I was ready to leave Planet Fitness because I wanted to work with a trainer. I learned that Andy is now on staff. He is absolutely great! The workouts he gives me have addressed my lower back issues and they have been more effective than physical therapy, massage therapy and chiropractic therapy.
Andy is also good with a wide variety of clients. I have seen him work with elderly, handicapped and young, strong clients. He is respectful, patient and encouraging with everyone. What a valuable asset he is to Planet Fitness!!!“

“This is place where we always looking for.
Clean ,spacious ,and extremely friendly stuff.
I think you can use this a great example for different locations.
Congratulations for management and of course for this stuff.
Two thumbs up“

“Place was very clean and workers were so nice. Morghan was especially helpful she took time away from cleaning to help me“

“I found EmpowerU Fitness by Googling gyms near me, and I’m so grateful I did. As someone with autism and ADHD, I often struggle with motivation, routine, and making healthy choices. This gym has completely changed that for me. It gives me the accountability I need to actually show up, and I’ve never felt more supported.

David and Jen are truly two of the most wonderful human beings on the planet. They’re patient, knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely invested in everyone who walks through the door. The atmosphere they’ve created is so positive, welcoming, and motivating that it feels less like a gym and more like a community.

Joining EmpowerU Fitness has helped my mental health, physical health, confidence, and overall happiness more than I can say. I’m stronger, clearer, and more consistent than I’ve ever been and I owe so much of that to this place and the people in it.

I’m genuinely so glad I joined this gym. I absolutely love this community and can’t imagine my life without it now.

If you’re looking for a place that truly lives up to its name, this is it. 💚🏋‍♀“

“Love the reformer and mat pilates classes! Instructors are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful- especially if you are new. The studio is clean and spacious. Great energy!“

“Came to see Tony because of my lower back pain. His treatment methods are definitely different compared to the usual chiro/PT/massage but it does work - I felt a big improvement after the first session. Highly recommend him!“

“Update: I wrote my review prior to reading the other reviews. I have to say that I am shocked by the couple of negative reviews regarding FOCUS and NISRA. (And no-we are not getting a kickback for a favorable review-that is ridiculous.) We were on a waitlist through NISRA for a while before a spot opened up for our son. We were bummed, but understood that both entities needed to ensure that it was properly staffed for the number of participants. We attend each week with our son, and as stated below, could not be happier with the inclusive mindset of FOCUS. I also want to note that the NISRA volunteers work hard to get everyone to participate. We have never seen anyone left out. They are well staffed and highly qualified. Participants all work at their own level, but if a child is not participating, it is not for lack of trying on either end. Not all kids enjoy all activities and perhaps the child did not want to participate. We have recently moved to this area and could not be more pleased with the organization, cooperation and communication from NISRA. Everyone is human and mistakes can happen, but both organizations would likely be very happy to hear concerns in a constructive way. If you are considering NISRA or FOCUS, I highly recommend!

We have a son with a diagnosis of Down Syndrome who takes karate at Focus Martial Arts through NISRA. We cannot say enough about this amazing program. The owners and the instructors are among the most inclusive and welcoming people I have ever met. They genuinely care about kids and their progress. They break down concepts and skills so that our son understands, but they have high expectations for his growth. Our son has made improvements in karate, behavior, focus and school because of their leadership. We are so grateful and highly recommend!“

“First massage, absolutely amazing. Very relaxing and comforting. The massage therapist(Abby) was very nice and found spots that were tense without a word from me. Definitely would recommend intuitive t I friends and family.“

“Juice bar with the protein shakes was a great add on to the gym, the gym can get very crowded however to the point where all the machines are taken and are being crowded.“

“By far the most well equipped gym around.
From the sports equipment to the spa and sauna , LIFETIME FITNESS of ALGONQUIN provides anything for your journey to all around wellness and all around health.“
